The young woman was wearing a white floral dress, she was pretty, and she was a little shy when she looked at Li Gen.
Huang Dan only saw Li Gen's back, not knowing what his expression was.
After a few seconds, the smile on the young woman's face disappeared, her eyes turned red, and she ran away crying.
Li Gen turned around, and Huang Dan quickly flashed to the corner, waiting for the footsteps to disappear before coming out.
He pouted, hiding something, just passing by.
After thinking for a moment, Huang Dan took a detour and passed in front of Li Gen's house. He looked for a corner to hide again.
In front of the door, He Wei was carrying a bag in which a few crucian carp were dying.
Wu Cuiling said she could not accept it.
He Wei's face froze, then recovered, "Just a few fish."
Wu Cuiling said, "Your sister just gave birth, so it's good to drink fish soup during the confinement period."
He Wei said with a smile, "My sister has a lot, and she has a big water tank."
He shoved the bag into Wu Cuiling's hand, "Just take it, a few fish are still polite to me."
"If Dagui is still alive, I don't need to tell me, he just grabbed the fish and left."
Wu Cuiling's movement to break free was stagnant.
He Wei said angrily, "Cuiling, don't be angry, sometimes I don't have a door."
Wu Cuiling's face was not very good. She was about to speak when a voice came from the room, "Cuiling—"
"My mother-in-law called me, take the fish back."
As she said that, Wu Cuiling pushed the door into the house and closed the door with her eyes down.
He Wei's face sank, he scolded swear words, threw the fish into the ditch, and he scolded again, "Isn't it just a broken shoe, I've been played by Li Gen already, what a dignified look!"
He spit on the ground, He Wei narrowed his small eyes, "Stinky bitch, wait until I put you to sleep and see how angry you are."
Huang Dan at the corner saw what it means to spray feces in his mouth.
Chen Jinhua was drying clothes in the yard, and when she saw her son came back, she was still carrying a bag, "Where did the fish come from?"
Huang Dan said, "I picked it up."
He hung the bag on the bamboo pole, "Mom, in the raising pot where the fish scales didn't fall off, the others were burnt."
"Hey winter, tell Mom, what is this fish..."
Chen Jinhua nagged at the empty door for a while, then went to kill the fish after drying the clothes.
On the other side, Wu Cuiling was wiping her mother-in-law's urine on the bamboo mat.
Wang Yuemei was sitting in a wheelchair. Even though she was old, she could still tell from her eyes that she was an absolute beauty when she was young.
Otherwise, the two sons would not be so handsome.
Wang Yuemei asked, "Is He Wei talking outside the door just now?"
Wu Cuiling snorted, "I said that I caught a lot of fish, so I brought some for our family, but I didn't want them."
Wang Yuemei said, "You are right to be afraid of gossip."
"However, He Wei has a deep relationship with Dagui, and he is also a good person. He is warmhearted. He ran here because of Dagui, not you."
The implication is to be a person with self-knowledge, don't take yourself too seriously.
Wu Cuiling's face turned pale, but she didn't say anything.
Wang Yuemei asked, "Your elder brother went to the field?"
Wu Cuiling said, "Well."
Wang Yuemei sighed, "He will be thirty-two during the Chinese New Year, and I don't know what his plans are."
Wu Cuiling whispered softly, "Big brother has something in mind."
Wang Yuemei said that she had a few farts. She told Wu Cuiling to push herself to the big red suitcase and take out the handkerchief bag from the bottom of the box.
"This bracelet and gold jewelry are my dowry things back then, you have put them away."
Wu Cuiling was stunned and couldn't believe it.
The next moment, she heard her mother-in-law say, "You find a time to take it to the county seat, and you can be as much as you can."
Wang Yuemei glanced at her daughter-in-law, "Don't blame your mother for not leaving these things to you. Your elder brother's marriage is the most important thing. That's the most important thing."
Wu Cuiling smiled, "I understand."
She pushed her broken hair behind her ear, revealing a face with ordinary features but red in the white, "Mom, then I'm going to the rice bed to turn the rice."
Wang Yuemei said critically, "Your face is too wide on both sides, it's better not to show it all."
Wu Cuiling pulled the broken hair back again.
In the morning, the sun was hot, and Huang Dan wiped out a few pieces of cake he brought, and drank a few jars of water.
He saw the tall figure of the man in the field next door. He had done his own work and was helping others.
The man's speed was very fast, only to see his arms swaying with flabby muscles, and the rice grains lined up behind him.
"Really capable."
Huang Dan muttered, it would be nice if he could help him too.
Hey, he grabbed the towel around his neck, wiped his face, and continued to work.
At about noon, there was a radio voice, "In the winter in the fields in the west, your piggy ran away, your mother told you to go home quickly!
