When he stopped at the county town to rest on the way, Xiao Shitou was quite happy. He remembered coming here.
When Xiao Shitou saw his mother and Sister Chen at night, Mrs. Ding was silent and stopped making trouble.
At night, he lay in his mother's arms and whispered, "Mom, are you angry with Xiao Shitou?"
He also knew that it was him who was in trouble this time.
An Ran stroked her son's face and said, "Mom is not angry with you, but you have to remember that if you lose your temper or hit someone in the future, it depends on the situation. If Mom tells you to stop, you have to be obedient."
"They bullied you and me too." Xiao Shitou knew he had gotten into trouble, but he didn't think he had done anything wrong.
"Son, if someone bullies you, you can bully him back, but you have to use other methods. You can't bully others and get yourself into trouble." ?.?????.ℂ??
Xiao Shitou's eyes lit up, "That mother doesn't object to me fighting her back."
"But you have to use a smart method. If you encounter trouble in the future, it depends on your mother's eyes."
Xiao Shitou said "Hmm", and then asked again: "Mom, did you forget to take my little bow and arrows? They were specially given to me by my grandfather."
"I didn't forget. Mom collected it well for you. I'll give it to you when I get home."
Xiao Shitou snorted again, kissed his mother's face twice, buried his face in her mother's chest, and fell asleep after a while.
Near evening the next day, a few people returned to Xiaxi Village.
After unloading the things from the carriage, Xiao Shitou thanked the nurse who sent them back and warmly invited him to stay for one night.
Hu Yuan liked Xiao Shitou very much and said: "I have to go back quickly and won't stay here. Young Master, you have to practice hard and don't forget what you have learned." After saying that, he took out a big bag from his arms. Candy, given to Little Stone.
After Xiao Shitou sent the person away, he happily returned to the yard and said, "Mom, it's better to live comfortably in your own home."
An Ran looked at her son's happy face and said, "Little Shitou, you have to remember that this is also the Ding family's, not entirely ours."
Xiao Shitou's face suddenly sank.
"Mom, didn't you say that uncle is very good? Why don't we go to uncle's house? This way we have nothing to do with the Ding family."
"If we go back, the alone mother and son will still be gossiped about, looked down upon, and bullied. Besides, the journey is far, and going back will also increase the burden on my grandmother and uncle."
Little Shitou circled in the yard, and then came back and said: "Mom, sooner or later I will earn a lot of money, a lot of money, so that you, grandma, and uncle will no longer have to worry about money, so that you can live a good life."
An Ran knelt down and looked straight at her son's excited face. Then she hugged him into her arms and said, "Okay, mother, just wait, mother will know that my little stone is the best."
Before it was completely dark, An Ran took Mrs. Ding and Sister Chen to clean up the residence. Sister Chen hurried to the kitchen and heated up the dry food left on the road.
An Ran is now glad that he left many things behind when he left. Although there is a layer of soil now, it can be used just by wiping it. It is always less troublesome than buying things again.
In the evening, Xiao Shitou put a piece of candy in his mouth, stuffed a piece in his mother's mouth, and said, "This uncle is very nice. I saw him buying candy yesterday, and it turned out that he really gave it to me."
"The Ding family are not all bad people. Like your grandfather, the old housekeeper, and the few people you play well with in the front yard, they are all good to you."
Xiao Shitou thought for a while and said, "Then I don't want to go back. No matter how nice his family is, I don't like it."
An Ran saw that her son had no good impression of the Ding family.
"Little Shitou, that's your home too, don't forget your surname is Ding."
"Then my surname is no longer Ding. My surname is my mother's. It's rare for me to have the same surname as them."
An Ran chuckled twice, held her son in her arms, and said softly: "This is not something that Mom and you can decide. When you grow up and have the ability, you can beat down those who have bullied us. You are the Ding family Your eldest grandson, this is your identity, no matter who you are, you must have an identity to live well."
Little Shitou blinked his big eyes. He didn't understand everything yet, but he wanted to remember what his mother said.
After he asked Mrs. Ding and Old Dingtou the next day, he had an idea.
It turns out that as long as my surname is Ding, I will be the eldest grandson of the Ding family, and everything in the Ding family will belong to me in the future. He may not want it in the future, but he has to give it to him. From now on, he has the final say in the Ding family.
After thinking about it, Xiao Shitou was happy, Ding family, you guys are waiting for me, sooner or later I will take my mother back in all her glory.
Then I thought again, why go back? We are all in glory now, so we can live outside in glory with my mother and not go back.
After Xiao Shitou finished telling An Ran his thoughts, An Ran said with a smile: "That's right."
An Ran held the little stone in her arms and said, "A lot of things can only be understood when you grow up. If you don't understand now, just remember the words."
The next day, a woman who was close to An Ran came to see An Ran with vegetables grown in the field.
The friends who played well with Little Stone also came. They kept playing in the open space outside the gate, and Dahei roared from time to time.
Aunt Hua saw that An Ran was calmer than before, and said: "I have been away these days, and I look thinner than before. Why can't I still live comfortably in the big house?"
