As the Chinese New Year approaches, the clothing factory is finally on holiday.

Dou Hongxia happily received her salary and went to the yard where Wu Qiang was based on the route she remembered.

Wu Qiang was a little surprised when he saw her, as if he had never expected her to come over alone.

"I...I'm here to buy things."

When Dou Hongxia saw Wu Qiang's beard and sharp eyes as if she was as sharp as an eagle, she felt a little cramped.

The main reason is that when Wu Qiang doesn't smile, he looks very fierce.

In the end, Dou Hongxia successfully bought rice, flour, oil and meat.

Afterwards, she took out her pocket and bought another pack of brown sugar.

The heavy supplies made her feel satisfied and she wanted to go home immediately.

At this time, she pushed open the yard door and saw four children sitting in the main hall, Chun'er and Tian'er were still teaching Ping'an to write.

The four people in the room heard the movement at the door and looked over, and saw Aunt Dou standing at the door.

"Aunt Dou~"

"My mother~"

......

Dou Hongxia is back and can start making cotton vests.

She took out a soft ruler to measure the size of the children one by one, cut the cloth and started sewing the cotton vest.

There is no sewing machine at home, so she can only sew it by hand one stitch at a time, with fine and neat stitches.

Zhao Xueer watched from the side and scratched her head, but she couldn't help.

Yun Xiaotang glanced at her stunned sister and smiled secretly.

There is something that my sister doesn't know.

Zhao Xueer looked at it for a while and had to chat with Aunt Dou.

After a few days of rushing, the cotton vest was finally ready.

"Come on, come and try it out to see if it fits."

Dou Hongxia shook her new cotton vest and greeted the children to give it a try.

Ping An put on a new cotton vest, and I felt as beautiful as a flower, and I was very happy.

"Good, good-looking, beautiful~beautiful~"

Dou Hongxia made her smile and pinch her face.

Yun Xiaotang touched the vest, which was soft and fluffy, and it was very warm when worn.

Her eyes were bright and she was obviously very happy.

Dou Hongxia looked at the children's happy appearance, even though she was reluctant to leave, she was once again sure that it was the right choice for her to leave home and work in the clothing factory.

She wants to perform well and strive to transform from a temporary worker to a formal worker.

The cold wave is surrounded by heavy snow, and after several heavy snow, the Spring Festival is also here.

During this year's Spring Festival, after leaving Xiao Ji in previous years, Yushu Village became much more lively.

On New Year's Eve, firecrackers sounded in the village.

In the village, some children were holding firecrackers in their hands, buried one end in the snow, and the fire tips exposed on the other end were lit with incense.

Then he screamed, covered his ears and ran away, and only the sound of firecrackers sounded one after another, adding a bit of excitement to New Year's Eve.

Couplets were posted on the doors of every household and window flowers were posted on the windows.

Rising and festive.

Yun Xiaotang held the red window flower cut by Aunt Dou in her hand, and was busy sticking it on the window with her brother.

Zhao Xueer and Aunt Dou were holding a couplet in Jinghu.

It's the Spring Festival again.

Yun Xiaotang pasted window flowers, looked at her sister who posted couplets, and listened to the sound of firecrackers coming from time to time in the village.

For a moment, it was a little dazed.

This year, Zhou Nanyue's home was even quieter than last year.

Old Mrs. Chen is sick.

Even if Zhou Nanyue often goes to the mountains to find good things and sells them for money to supplement the household expenses, this year is not a hard time.

But... Old Mrs. Chen was old after all, and her health fell ill and lay on the bed because of her hard work.

She lay on the bed, awake for a while, and then lurked again.

When I was in Hutu, I muttered the names of her husband and son.

When I woke up, I looked at her daughter sitting beside the bed with tears in my eyes, "Shujing, my poor daughter, what should you do after I leave?"

Chen Shujing held her mother's hand with tears in her eyes. It was much more normal to look at it at this time.

In fact, she has rarely gone crazy this year.

She cruelly abused that person, who looked like his son in the past, and she turned into hatred because of love.

The man left ruthlessly, and the man was not by her side during the days when she needed him the most.

Even more cruel, has that person ever loved her?

Zhou Nanyue stood in the corner of the house, with his eyebrows hanging down and his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking, and he didn't say a word.

After standing for a while, he left Mrs. Chen's room and walked into the yard.

The dim light of the kerosene lamp in the main room shone on the ground of the yard. He looked up at the dark night sky, then looked back at the room, and could hear the laughter of children outside the yard.

He stood quietly, his face hiding in the darkness.

No one can understand his emotions at this moment.

......

After suffering for a few days, Old Mrs. Chen finally couldn't get through it.

Before the New Year is over, people are gone.

Chen Shujing cried so hard that she was out of breath, and the mourning sounded throughout the room.

The moment she left, Old Mrs. Chen held Zhou Nanyue's hand and asked him to take good care of his mother, otherwise she would be in vain.

She could no longer understand this grandson, and the only thing she could not let go was her daughter.

Zhou Nanyue was silent and finally said "Okay" at the moment when Old Mrs. Chen let go.

Only then did Old Mrs. Chen close her eyes with relief and reluctance, tears still hang on the corners of her eyes.

The next day, Zhou Nanyue buried Mrs. Chen in the back mountain.

At that time, Chen Shujing was holding Mrs. Chen's cold body in the room and refused to let go.

Zhou Nanyue was helpless, "Do you still want to see that person?"

Chen Shujing looked at her son with tears in her eyes, and was stunned for a moment before she understood who the person he was talking about was.

"If you want to see me, let go and live well, and there will be the day you will see me."

Chen Shujing slowly let go of her hand, looking stunned, not knowing what she was thinking in her heart.

Later, the villagers of Yushu Village also learned about the death of the landlord of the old landlord family.

I sighed for a moment.

As the captain of the brigade, Captain Li also visited him specifically.

When I got home, I felt that the children in that family were a little different.

Yun Xiaotang and the others also learned about the death of Mrs. Chen, and they were very upset.

They also went to Zhou Nanyue's house, and they carried some things in their hands and paper flowers that Aunt Dou had temporarily grabbed.

On the back mountain, Aunt Dou placed the paper flowers in front of Mrs. Chen's tomb. Looking at Zhou Nanyue's expressionless appearance, she didn't know how to speak.

Zhao Xueer didn't know what to say.

At this time, no matter how much sad you say, you will be pale and powerless.

Finally, Yun Xiaotang looked at Zhou Nanyue carefully, walked to him, and said softly—

"Big brother, don't be sad, don't cry..."

Don't cry?

Zhou Nanyue looked down at the child in front of him.

Will he cry?

Obviously not.

However, he was probably still a little uncomfortable and felt a little confused.

He couldn't help but remember some things in his previous life.

His eyes were empty.

Afterwards, Yun Xiaotang left with her sister and the others, leaving Zhou Nanyue alone standing in front of the grave.
