Because of Gao Xiulan's abnormal behavior, Lin Shuhong was always anxious when she went to work in the afternoon. Although she really wanted to separate the family, she only dared to tell her man about it, not her mother-in-law. If her mother-in-law found out, the whole village and production team would know about it. Maybe I will go to her mother's house to make trouble...
Thinking of that scene, Lin Shuhong shuddered. From top to bottom of her natal family, they are all honest people. When she first approached Su Aiguo, she saw that he was honest and had the same temperament as the rest of the family, so she fell in love with him.
If her mother-in-law went to her mother's house to make trouble, how could the family be able to withstand it
So when she got off work, she secretly consulted with her man Su Aiguo, "Aiguo, you didn't tell mom about the things I said I wanted to live alone."
Su Aiguo's face darkened a little when she heard that she still mentioned the matter of living alone, "Why are you still mentioning this? I said you can't live alone. I am the eldest son. Even if you live alone, Mom will follow We lived together. Shuhong, we agreed when we got married, why did you change again?"
Lin Shuhong said in her heart that before we got married, I didn't expect your mother to spoil her daughter-in-law so much. Still thinking about loving my daughter so much, she must be different from other mother-in-laws.
result…
After marrying into Lao Su's family, Lin Shuhong understood a truth. Marriage can't just rely on your head to think about it.
The result of random thinking is that the mother-in-law will tell you that it is daydreaming.
Lin Shuhong felt so much emotion that she couldn't breathe, but she didn't want to say a word to her man. After so many years, she has already seen that her man's mind is abnormal. In my heart, besides my mother, I am my sister.
And a few days ago, she was still daydreaming about trying to make him separate... Why is she so upset
Now it's all right, let's provoke my mother-in-law.
Su Aiguo was still persuading, "You see, now the eldest sister still brings meat to the family. Now there are several families in the whole team that can eat meat, and they can't even eat. The daughter-in-law of the old cripple's family in the east of the village two days ago, Didn’t I just carry it out and bury it? Or I went out to bury it secretly in the middle of the night. The pit was dug so deep. Tell me, is this day in our family undreamed of by others? It’s not that my sister doesn’t work, my mother said , that's a problem in the mother's womb, and she feels uncomfortable when she moves. She is only in her teens, and she has never seen our dad since she was a child. How pitiful? How many years can my sister stay at home at this age? Why are you so tolerant? I can't let her down, what's wrong with her eating too much, she used to eat so much when you didn't come in, and we give all the delicious food to the eldest sister, how can we wait for the daughter-in-law to come in and then change, that's because I forgot when I have a daughter-in-law Mother, you will be pointed at and scolded by the old people in the village."
Lin Shuhong's head was dizzy, after hearing what her man said, she felt that her thoughts were too bad to tolerate her sister-in-law. My sister-in-law used to live like this at home. How could she be displeased as soon as she entered the door? After getting married, she still wanted to persuade the man to separate the family, regardless of the sister-in-law... Didn't the family not give her a bite to eat, eat more and eat less, didn't she starve to death
Her kids didn't starve to death either, wait, kid? Lin Shuhong suddenly realized that something was wrong, why should she sympathize with her sister-in-law, her child was still starving every day, and was oppressed by her mother-in-law all day long. She wants to separate the family, it is to let the children have enough to eat!
Looking at Su Aiguo who was still talking endlessly, Lin Shuhong suddenly found that she was almost surrounded by her man just now.
Lin Shuhong looked at the sky, feeling a little hopeless in her heart. She finds herself living with a family of abnormal people who may one day become abnormal.
She thought that if one day she became like only her sister-in-law and mother-in-law in her heart, she would feel the darkness in front of her eyes.
"Our eldest sister is so attractive, otherwise the senior cadres would not recognize her as a daughter. Can the senior cadres be blind? So if you don't like our eldest sister, then you are blind..." Su Aiguo said confidently reason with his wife.
Lin Shuhong finally couldn't stand it anymore. Her man usually can't give a fart. When talking about his sister, he can always talk non-stop for three days and three nights, "Patriotic patriotism, let's not talk about it. I was wrong. No. I won't separate the family anymore. I'll just ask if you told our mother that I'm afraid she will be angry."
When Su Aiguo heard that Lin Shuhong was finally persuaded by him, he felt relieved, and said with a smile, "I didn't say anything, don't worry, I know you are just confused for a while, what are I talking about with Mom?"
Lin Shuhong: "..." No, it's not me who is confused, it's you!
When the couple returned home, Gao Xiulan had already prepared meals. Normally, unless she didn't want to move, she wouldn't let her daughters-in-law do things like cooking.
These days, whoever cooks is the head of the house. Of course, this home is the best in front of her. She won't let anyone but her daughter.
Lin Shuhong didn't dare to rest when she got home, she went into the kitchen to help Gao Xiulan serve meals. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with Gao Xiulan's face, she felt at ease.
It seemed that her mother-in-law really didn't know.
Su Qinghe didn't know that because she made her mother Gao Xiulan treat her granddaughters better, she would make her sister-in-law Lin Shuhong a false alarm.
Because she just upgraded, she directly gave herself two days off.
The original owner was someone who couldn't even lift a broom, so no one thought it strange that she suddenly stopped after cooking a few meals.
The only thing that makes people a little sad is that she can put more meat when cooking, and when Gao Xiulan orders her two daughter-in-laws to cook, the amount can be controlled.
Gao Xiulan wasn't worried that her daughter wouldn't be able to eat, anyway, she could give her a little treat.
And now no one can say no, don't eat meat if you have the ability!
Now that Gao Xiulan feels that she has something to rely on, she has full confidence in her heart and is even more powerful at home.
The family had just finished eating when they heard the sound of gongs and drums outside, which was the signal for a meeting in the team.
When May is busy, there is no time to talk nonsense during the day, and I save time to talk about things at night.
The head of the Su family is naturally Gao Xiulan. How can she be missing for such a big event as a meeting, so I arranged for the two daughters-in-law to stay at home to look after the house, and I took my two sons to the meeting together.
Su Qinghe immediately followed and wanted to follow. At this time, there was not even a kerosene lamp in the house, and she was flustered at home alone in the middle of the night. Always worried that Comrade Su Dagen really came home...
And she also wants to see how the conference of this era is held.
Gao Xiulan originally wanted her daughter to sleep at home, but she couldn't help it when she heard that she wanted to go with her, so she asked her to grab a few pieces of dried sweet potatoes and take two pieces when she was bored. This is like holding a conference as watching a movie.
When the Su family arrived, many other families also arrived. Under the night, only vague outlines can be seen all around, so everyone recognizes who is talking and shouts to say hello.
"Yo, Qinghe is here. It's been a few days since I saw her. Usually, she doesn't leave the gate. I thought someone raised her as a landlord lady."
Su Qinghe was looking around when he heard a broken voice.
When she looked back, she was a thin middle-aged woman. Su Qinghe squinted her eyes, and through the memory of the original owner in her head, she recognized that this was her second aunt Gao Xiuju. She married into the same production team as Gao Xiulan, but not in the same village. Gao Xiuju was in Tianjia Village.
Usually, we rarely see each other, but only at this conference. Of course, she and Gao Xiulan have great conflicts, so they have to pinch each other when they meet each other.
Gao Xiuju's point of pinching is Gao Xiulan's baby bump, Su Qinghe, basically one pinch is accurate. No, before Su Qinghe could speak, Gao Xiulan became furious, "What's wrong, Qingmiaoer in our family is blessed, and there are three older brothers who are willing to love her, while some families are just not blessed, and the daughters born can only be used to raise brothers. I Speaking of the second child, whether your daughter-in-law is giving birth to a son or a daughter, I don’t blame your daughter-in-law, you yourself gave birth to three daughters before you gave birth to a son, this is what I learned from you.”
Gao Xiuju's old face suddenly couldn't hold back. This black sky is so blind that she can't see clearly her face, but Su Qinghe has already felt her anger.
That's right, the reason why her second aunt Gao Xiuju had conflicts with her mother Gao Xiulan was because of the issue of having a baby. The two are also born at odds, Gao Xiulan is the third daughter of the Gao family, and the second child, Gao Xiuju, is just over a year apart. The two got married in the same year, and they made an appointment to have children together. Every time Mr. Gao Xiuju had a daughter, Gao Xiulan immediately gave birth to a son, and then Gao Xiuju gave birth to another daughter, and Gao Xiulan immediately gave birth to a son... After that, Gao Xiulan felt that she had too many sons and didn't want to have any more, so she took a rest. As a result, Gao Xiuju immediately gave birth to a baby son.
At that time, before the feudal superstition was broken, Gao Xiuju went to someone to tell her fate, saying that Gao Xiulan was born to oppress her, so if they conceived a child together, they would oppress her and not be able to produce a son. After Gao Xiulan heard about it, she thought it was farting, she couldn't poop, and she blamed the latrine. However, Gao Xiuju believed...
So this beam is knotted.
Su Qinghe tried to ease the conflict, so she comforted Gao Xiuju, "Second aunt, what, in fact, having a son and a daughter are the same. The daughter is the mother's caring little padded jacket. It can also be passed on to the future. You want to be more open."
Gao Xiulan felt that her daughter was mocking Gao Xiuju, so she sneered, "What we Qingmiaoer said is right, look at how precious I am, Qingmiaoer. Girls need to be loved. All three of my sons love her. Your three sons A daughter should also make your son, who is a brother, hurt. Your daughter-in-law will give birth to a daughter, and that is also your blessing. "
Su Qinghe: "..."
"..." Gao Xiuju felt that her heart was stabbed several times by this mother.
"You black-hearted mother and daughter, why didn't a lightning strike you to death?!"
Gao Xiulan said, "I have three sons standing in front of me, so I can't break through."
Gao Xiuju was so angry that she didn't even have the strength to argue with Gao Xiulan.
Su Qinghe was worried that she might be angry, so she pulled Gao Xiulan, "Mom, isn't there a meeting, why hasn't it started yet?"
Gao Xiulan was interrupted, and she couldn't care about Gao Xiuju anymore. She looked at her daughter lovingly, "I have to call the people from the other two villages to come over. That's the only bad thing about our team, it's too scattered. Other villages Big, a village is a brigade. It’s much easier than us.”
The Yellow River production team is composed of three small villages, Sujia Village, Tianjia Village, and Sunjia Village. Because Sujia Village has the most people and its location is close to the commune, it usually holds meetings here.
Seeing that she forgot to quarrel, Su Qinghe was relieved. I saw Gao Xiuju being dragged away by two daughters. She chatted with Gao Xiulan, "Mom, what do you think this meeting is about?"
"What else can I do? It must be for food."
After waiting for a while, people from other villages also rushed over. Seeing that almost everyone had arrived, the old captain Guo Changsheng beat the gongs and drums to signal everyone to be quiet. Then he stood on the mound of the square. The whole person is elevated so that everyone can look at him.
Guo Changsheng is in his fifties, and he is not a local. He was assigned to settle in this place after he was discharged from the army. Because he was a soldier, although he is not tall, he looks very energetic, and he usually speaks with confidence. .
Today, however, he looks a little out of sorts. After looking around at everyone, he was silent for a few seconds before opening his mouth with difficulty, "This time the food will be harvested soon. According to the instructions above, our team's production this year is definitely not enough. Let's collect it for a while. We only collected 18,000 catties of grain. Last year, the amount reported was 32,000. This is still the least amount we reported, and it was still not enough. Comrades, we can’t distribute the grain we collected this year. Let everyone Coming here is also to prepare everyone mentally. Every family should not just watch the harvest and eat it with their stomachs open. This year, there will be no new food, so everyone has tightened their belts. At least until the autumn harvest."
Guo Changsheng's words were like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, which immediately made the whole team noisy.
The food at home is almost bottomed out, and now the newly harvested food is not distributed
Still have to wait until the autumn harvest? There are still a few months left for the autumn harvest. If we survive until then, won't we all starve to death
"Captain Guo, this can't be done. Our family has long since run out of food, and we have nothing to eat. Our family has eaten bark for several days, and our intestines can't stand it anymore. My mother-in-law, my mother-in-law I can't bear to go..."
The one who spoke was Su Laizi from the east of the village. When he was young, he hurt his leg. He managed to find a wife and gave birth to several children. Now, in a famine year, his wife got edema because she saved a bite of food for the children. Sick, just left a few days ago.
Everyone in the village knew about it, but they just sighed a few words. There are not many such things, but it has not been unusual in the past two years.
Gao Xiulan whispered to her daughter about the affairs of Su Laizi's family, and then taught, "Qing Miaoer, do you hear that, if you don't eat, you will starve to death. You can eat whatever is at home. Su Laizi and his wife just don't want to eat it." If you let others eat it, you will get edema and die."
Su Qinghe felt extremely heavy at this moment.
The original owner didn't care about the outside world before, so the things that happened in his memory were all told by his family members.
But really watching Su Liezi crying about the tragic situation at home, he couldn't help but feel heavy and unmoved.
Guo Changsheng's heart was also heavy.
These are his old folks. When he came back from the army, the old folks accepted him, let him take root here, and made him the captain of the brigade.
But he, the captain, didn't let the old folks live a good life.
However, he was also helpless. This is what the commune means. This year the commune reported a large amount, and when it was apportioned, it became so much.
"Folks, there will always be difficulties. We have overcome so many storms in the past, and now life is peaceful. Let's work harder to get through this famine year, and our good days are coming. The autumn harvest is coming soon, and we strive to share the grain during the autumn harvest. The commune has also promised that if there is no grain in the autumn harvest, we will apply for relief grain. Everyone, let’s endure it.”
Guo Changsheng was almost about to cry.
The others didn't say a word, they said the same thing anyway. Do they agree, can the grain collection team not come to collect grain
When the meeting ended, everyone was in a bad mood. Even Gao Xiulan sighed, and discussed it with her two sons on the way, and let's just eat one meal at home.
There are still several months before the autumn harvest. With so many mouths in the house, there must be not enough food. And after today's meeting, I'm afraid there won't be much bark left. Don't even think about eating wild vegetables at home in the future.
"Qing Miao'er can't be less, she is not in good health, so she can't be hungry. I can eat less than one bite." Gao Xiulan said.
Naturally, the two sons will not let her eat less, Su Aiguo said, "Mom, look at what you said, I can't let you eat less than I eat. The rations of the eldest sister must be quite a lot. How did you eat before, but in the future How to eat."
Gao Xiulan nodded in satisfaction.
Su Qinghe was silent. She felt that it was too sinful for her to be lazy in this era.
Cook cook, she cook!
After returning home, Gao Xiulan gave the order to eat one meal a day. Just eat Chinese food.
Others know the situation and have no opinion. It's just that Lin Shuhong looked at her children and felt bitter. Finally, the mother-in-law began to change a little, and let the children eat more. Now it's going to be the same again.
Why is her child so miserable
Gao Xiulan didn't care about other people's thoughts. She went back to the room and made a wish to the big urn, "Da Gen, you heard it too. It's so difficult now, so please bring back more food. Otherwise, we'll starve to death." You heartless, don't just watch. By the way, there is also the big iron pot at home, you can also bring it here. Clay pots are useless firewood. You can't bear to watch me spend all day picking them up. It’s exhausting to get some firewood, don’t you have the heart?”
In another room, Su Qinghe lay on the bed and began to check his storage space.
In addition to the few grains and meat left over from previous missions, there is only a large iron pot in the space.
It seems that next time I will take more things. At least not let the family really only eat one meal. At that time, even if you don't starve to death, you will suffer from edema.
