MTL - After Being Read By the Cannon Fodder Group, the Idiot Beauty Won

Chapter 301 Look, I, Lan Lan, am back!

The old man was originally sitting with his eyes looking towards the entrance of the village. He slowly turned around when he heard the sound.

 “It’s Xiuhe.”

“Mom, what are you doing here? How long have you been sitting here?”

  "Soon, soon, just a little while."

When Bai Xiuhe touched the old man's clothes, they were a little wet. They must have been stained with morning dew. From a glance, he knew that he must have been sitting for a long time, more than a while.

“Mom, come in with me. You see your clothes are all wet. Come on, I’ll take you in to change.”

"No, no, Xiuhe, I'm waiting for Linglan to come back."

Bai Xiuhe was stunned when he heard the word "Linglan".

 She knew that this was the name of her kidnapped sister-in-law.

 It seems like mother misses my sister-in-law again?

She also thought that when she got married, her sister-in-law had not been kidnapped. She was so young, so pretty and cute, and she treated her as a daughter.

When her sister-in-law was abducted, it seemed as if a piece of her heart was suddenly empty. Every time she thought about the missing piece, she always felt intense pain.

Grandma Zhang leaned close to Bai Xiuhe's ear and whispered: "Xiuhe, let me tell you, I had a dream last night, and I dreamed of Lanlan."

 “She said she was going home and asked me to wait for her here.”

 So, as soon as Grandma Zhang woke up, she came to wait here at the entrance of the yard.

Just like before, when Zhang Linglan was a child and she went out to play, Grandma Zhang would always sit here, waiting for her to come home after playing.

When Bai Xiuhe heard this, tears almost fell.

 But looking at the joy and expectation on my mother-in-law’s face.

 She endured it.

 She is also looking forward to the return of her sister-in-law.

 But she also knew that the chance of her sister-in-law coming back was slim.

 But at this time, she couldn't bear to destroy the old man's expectations.

That's too cruel.

 Actually, if possible, she hoped that her mother-in-law's dream would come true and her sister-in-law would really come back.

 But she knew that the dream was just a dream.

“Mom, let’s do this. Look, your clothes are all wet. Let’s go back to the house to change first, and then come back and wait, okay?”

 Grandma Zhang hesitated.

“Otherwise, when Lan Lan comes back and sees that you didn’t even change your clothes when they got wet just to wait for her to come back, Lan Lan will blame herself if she gets sick.”

Grandma Zhang suddenly realized that her daughter-in-law was right.

So, Bai Xiuhe helped him go in and change into dry clothes.

 Then she sat down at the entrance of the yard again, looking towards the entrance of the village.

Bai Xiuhe stood and looked at her mother-in-law's hunched and thin back sitting on the threshold of the yard. She sighed slightly and unknowingly her eyes were red.

Lanlan, have you seen your mother waiting for you to come back?

 If you know, if you are still alive in this world, come back quickly.

 Before your father passed away, the only thing he thought about was you.

Your mother, I am also looking forward to your return day and night.

We are also waiting for your return.

 Lanlan, my mother is already old, and she doesn’t know how many more years she can wait.

 So, come back quickly.

Bai Xiuhe kept praying in her heart.

Bai Xiuhe returned to the house and happened to meet her husband getting up.

 Her husband noticed her red eyes immediately and asked her what was wrong.

Bai Xiuhe didn't hide anything, and told her mother-in-law that she insisted on sitting on the threshold waiting for her sister-in-law to come back.

 Zhang Yuanshan was silent for a long time after listening.

He said: "Let her wait, let's not disturb her." But the old man just sat there and waited.

 It means from the time it is still dark until it is almost dark.

 Throughout the whole day, she sat there, always looking towards the entrance of the village, hoping that the person she was waiting for would appear.

 Some of her grandchildren asked her: Grandma, why are you sitting here?

Grandma Zhang replied: I am waiting for your little aunt to come back.

 “Is the little aunt coming back?”

 “Yes, she is coming back.”

“Then I’ll accompany grandma and wait for my little aunt to come back.”

 So the child sat down and waited with him.

I just waited and waited, but still no one came.

 The child was young and couldn't sit still, so he didn't wait, got up and ran away to play.

Grandma Zhang has been waiting. Except for eating and going to the hut, she has been waiting without moving a step.

Some neighbors and villagers passing by saw Grandma Zhang sitting outside and were curious, so they asked her what she was doing.

"I'm waiting for my Lan Lan to come back. My Lan Lan will be back soon."

Everyone knows that Grandma Zhang had a kidnapped little daughter, and Lanlan is the name of that little daughter.

Seeing Grandma Zhang like this, they sighed and left. They couldn't bear to expose her, and couldn't bear to tell her: How could the child come back after being abducted for so many years?

He could only say: "Okay, then you wait. When Lan Lan comes back, you have to bring Lan Lan to my house to sit."

 “Hey, definitely.”

So, the people next to Grandma Zhang sat and walked away, and the people passing by the door came and left, but she was the only one who kept sitting at the threshold, looking around.

 Everyone said that Grandma Zhang might be like this because she is old and confused.

This man is also quite pitiful.

Grandma Zhang has been sitting like this since it was still dark in the morning until now in the evening.

The sky has become slightly dark.

 Those who went to the fields are also packing up and returning home.

“Hey, I’m still waiting for your Lan Lan to come back.” When I passed by, I saw that Grandma Zhang was still there, so I couldn’t help but ask.

“Yes.” Grandma Zhang nodded.

 After waiting for a day, she showed no signs of anxiety or impatience.

 It seemed that no matter how long she waited, it was worth it, because as long as she kept waiting, she would definitely be able to wait until her little daughter came back.

"Mom, let's go in and eat. It's already dark. Don't wait any longer. Can we wait tomorrow?" Bai Xiuhe had already prepared the meal. Seeing her mother-in-law sitting and waiting all day, she felt very sour. .

"You guys eat first, I want to wait for Lanlan."

"Mother, Lanlan..." Bai Xiuhe almost blurted out, Lanlan might not come back, but the words were stuck in her throat, but she couldn't say them out.

"It's already dark. Even if Lanlan wants to come back, she'll have to wait until tomorrow. Let's wait until tomorrow, okay?" Unable to say such hurtful words, Bai Xiuhe could only advise tactfully.

But this time the old man seemed to be unusually stubborn, "No, Lan Lan said, she came back today. It's getting dark, so Lan Lan should come back."

“Before, it was around this meal time, and I was waiting here for Lan Lan to come back.”

“Lanlan, she is playful, but once it gets dark, she will definitely come back if she knows I am waiting for her here.”

"Mother, you..." After hearing these words, Bai Xiuhe couldn't hold back the tears and fell.

　　Yes, this was indeed the case in the past. At that time, my sister-in-law was still a four or five-year-old child, playing in the village, but as soon as it got dark and knowing that her mother was waiting for her here, she would run home immediately.

 And now…

"Look, I, Lanlan, am back, she is back..."

Just when Bai Xiuhe was feeling sad, she suddenly heard her mother-in-law stand up and stumble forward.

Bai Xiuhe looked up and seemed to vaguely see a figure appearing at the entrance of the village...

 Sure enough, I am still more suitable for writing tear-jerking plots, hehe.
