After breakfast, the man from the Xue family went to the field.
Xue Qingshan also went out, but instead of going to the ground, he went to the town. It is said that there is an elder in a classmate's family in the town to celebrate the birthday.
It is busy farming now, and few schoolchildren in the school will come. This is the case with private schools in the countryside. Every two seasons when the farming season is busy, schoolchildren are given vacations, so Xue Qingshan has been quite leisurely recently. But he doesn't go anywhere, and no one cares about him. When the school is on vacation, he is often not seen for a few days.
Zhao'er washed the tableware and chopsticks that he and the little man had used, and took them back to the stove. Zhou was cooking pig food while Tao’er was cleaning the yard. Seeing that he had nothing to do with himself, Zhao’er found Heizi’s food bowl and scooped a bowl from the leftover rice that he planned to feed the pigs in the pig grass later. , took it and walked out the door.
Zhou Shi glanced at her back, but said nothing.
This leftover rice is for Heizi to eat. This is how dogs are raised in the countryside. The owner eats dry and the dog drinks water. When the owner eats water, the dog usually starves. The native dogs in the countryside are used to starvation, but Zhao'er is a rare sunspot on weekdays.
Occasionally there are snacks, of course, these are invisible.
Anyway, Mrs. Zhao saw that Zhao'er took food out of her pig's mouth and gave it to the dog!
She lifted her foot and came out of the main room to see this scene, her old face was pulled down immediately, and she didn't see her scolding Zhao'er, so she stood in front of the door and shouted, scolding in the direction of the stove: "I want you to feed the pigs. It's better for you to feed the food into the dog's mouth, such a big person can't use it, and it's useless to eat for nothing."
This obviously refers to Sang scolding Huai.
In the kitchen, Mrs. Zhou didn't speak. Tao'er, who was sweeping the yard, raised her head and glanced at Nie. She endured and continued to bury her head in sweeping the yard. Zhao didn't name her name, who knew who she was scolding, if she stepped forward and interjected, she would only be targeted and scolded bloody.
These are all lessons learned.
Zhao'er just walked to the courtyard gate when she heard such a scolding, she did not show weakness, she turned to look at Zhao Shi with a smile: "Ama, are you scolding the third aunt? If you scolding the third aunt, the third aunt But it's too wrong. If you want to scold you, you should also scold me. I scooped the leftovers, and I plan to give them to Heizi. I don't think it's not easy for Heizi. You can't do things that you want the cows to work on and don't let the cows graze, don't you think?"
Zhao Shi glared at Zhao'er angrily, she knew that this girl was not a fuel-efficient lamp, so she would scold Zhou Shi, but she did not expect that she would find it by herself. Just as he was about to say something, some of the women who passed by in front of the courtyard said with a smile, "I saw the spirit of Lian Xing's family early in the morning."
Someone next to him interjected: "Don't say it, Ren Zhao'er is right, how can you let the cows work and not let them eat grass."
"That's right, Lian Xing's family, it's almost enough. No one in the village likes this big black dog of your family. When there is a rabbit shortage in the wild, it can pick up rabbits, what a dexterous beast. In summer and autumn, voles, wild rabbits, and pheasants are often eaten at home. If you don’t eat them, you will bring them back. If you don’t like this sunspot, give it to our family.
This one is Lianxing's family, is the old man Xue and an aunt, known as the trustworthy aunt. Although he was ten years younger than the Zhao family, he was helpless.
There are more than 200 households in Yuqing Village, with Xue and Zheng as the major surnames, and a dozen other households with miscellaneous surnames. Since they all have the same surname, it is inevitable that every household has a relationship, and some relationships can be pulled out of the five clothes. But a kiss is a kiss. When you talk about being younger than people, you have to respect him, so when this trustworthy aunt speaks, it is like an elder pointing at the younger generation.
Zhao shi was blocked by these words, even if she was scolded, but she was really reluctant to give Heizi to others. Just like what these people said, Heizi usually brings some wild things to his house. No matter how big or thin he is, he always eats meat. It is not easy for country people to eat meat.
She didn't speak with a stern face, but the trick in front of the door said: "Seven grandma, this is not good, Heizi is my lifeblood, you are going to run away from my lifeblood, I can't live."
As soon as she said that with a smile on her face and witty words in her mouth, she immediately made the trustworthy aunt laugh, pointed at her little by little, and said to the others: "Look at this sloppy girl, but she doesn't know anything at all. You're welcome. Okay, Grandma Seven doesn't want you to be a dog, so that I won't give up the lifeblood of my child."
After joking, Zhao'er smiled and sent these women away before turning around to feed Heizi.
Zhao shi glared at her, turned around and planned to enter the house, just as she raised her foot, she heard someone calling her from behind.
"Mother, why are you standing here?"
But it was Zhao's eldest daughter, Xue Cuiping, who came back.
Xue Cuiping's appearance is 60% like Zhao's, but she has a pair of big almond eyes. She looked in her twenties, wearing a blue flower jacket that had been washed white, and a pair of red wide-leg pants. She was holding a bamboo basket in her hand, which was covered with a layer of cloth. She couldn't see what was inside, and she was looking at Zhao shi in doubt.
This really means that Cao Cao and Cao Cao are here. The old man explained before that the Zhao family is planning to send someone to Shangshui Village to report a letter.
The mother and daughter walked into the house while talking, and soon disappeared behind the curtain of the main room.
Zhao'er squatted there and watched Heizi eat, rubbing his big head in his hand, but he was a little curious about how the aunt came back in time for the busy farming season.
"This can't be done, mother, you are making someone stab me in the spine!" In the main room, Xue Cuiping stood up after hearing Zhao's words.
Zhao Shi hurriedly stretched out his hand to pull her, and at the same time made a gesture to tell her to be quiet so that no one could hear her.
"You can't do it. You are Gouzi's aunt, and you are the second parent. If this family says who the child is willing to listen to, it will probably listen to you."
What Zhao said was true. Xue Cuiping had a good relationship with the second child, Xue Qingsong, when she was a child. When she was not married, she could talk to Qiu, and Xue Gouzi hugged him a lot when she was first born.
Xue Gouzi has been shy and reserved since he was a child, and since the second wife and his wife left, he has become even more silent and gloomy. He often does not see him say a word for ten days and a half. The Xue family is also closer to the aunt Xue Cuiping.
"But..." Xue Cuiping's face was embarrassed, and she secretly thought that she shouldn't come back this time. She never thought that she had not done her own affairs when she returned to her mother's house, but this kind of thing happened.
"Don't forget, your Xingzi came to our private school to go to school, and your eldest brother has nothing to do with you. Now your eldest brother needs your help, why don't you think about it, just as handsome as your eldest brother, The big house is promising, can it still make you suffer?"
"Mother, why don't you tell the dog yourself!"
Zhao shi has never been a patient person. She can speak in such a gentle manner because Xue Cuiping is her daughter. Seeing her daughter pushing things like this, and poking her heart out with her words, she suddenly exploded: "If your mother can talk to him, do you still need you? Can your mother say this, can you say it? If you let outsiders You know, what is this?"
Xue Cuiping was already irritated by her husband's family affairs, and when she saw her mother scolding her, she immediately became annoyed: "He Ze, if everyone doesn't go there, I am an outsider who asked me to be this wicked person? My aunt is not a thing, the second brother and the whole family are dead, to force a child?!"
Seeing her daughter's voice getting louder, Mrs. Zhao was afraid of being overheard, so she pulled her hard and reprimanded, "Are you afraid that people won't hear you?"
Xue Cuiping naturally didn't want to fall out with her mother, so she grumbled unwillingly: "Let me say, this is not your mother's responsibility for you and your father, and the elder brother's family affairs are left to the elder brother or elder sister-in-law. Let others do the bad things. , their family is innocent, they have such a job!"
"What the hell is wrong with your eldest brother, your eldest brother is a scholar, and he needs to be respectable. Besides, he is ashamed of his second child, and he can't do such a thing."
Xue Cuiping's lips parted, and she pressed her stomach full of words.
If you are really ashamed of the second brother, will you make such a fuss? In fact, over the years, Xue Cuiping has also seen through the person of this eldest brother. If the eldest sister-in-law is a smiling tiger, the eldest brother is not a good stalker, and the bad things have been done by others. It is obvious that their family has benefited, but they still pretended to be innocent.
But knowing what to do, she is a married woman after all, and she can't shake the deep-rooted importance of her parents to her eldest brother. As long as this kind of emphasis is not broken, the family will always take the big house first. In particular, she also has her own selfishness and her own last resort, so even if she knows some things that have happened at home in the past two years, she can only pretend to be invisible.
She licked up the hair that fell on her cheeks and said, "Mother, let's not talk about it, I came back this time to borrow some wheat seeds, you also know my mother-in-law's illness, last year because I was in a hurry to raise money. Medicine money, no seeds left..."
Before she could finish speaking, Zhao was interrupted.
Zhao slapped her fiercely twice: "I'm here to borrow wheat seeds again, don't you think that your parents' family has gold and silver mountains? The sons of the Liu family let you, a daughter-in-law, come back to dig your parents' family!?"
"Mother..."
"Those who cut off the head of the Liu family, a whole room of dead stars, a group of incompetent cowards, who can't even feed their mother-in-law..." Zhao scolded, seeing Xue Cuiping crying, and beating her again with hatred Twice: "Go and take care of the dog, and mother will give you wheat seeds."
"Mother..."
"Come on, don't smear the ink."
When he heard the aunt came back, Xue Gouzi felt a sense of fate in his heart.
Later, when Xue Cuiping opened the door and walked in with a smile, he didn't feel any sadness at all.
When Xue Cuiping spoke, Xue Gouzi was not actually listening, he was just thinking about the strange things in and outside the dream.
Back then, Xue Tingxiang also experienced such an accident. Since his parents died one after another, he felt resentment towards the Xue family in his heart. And these grievances accumulated little by little under the hypocrisy of the big house and the acquiescence of the family. Until this time, he still had the last bit of hope in his heart, but when even the closest aunt was standing on the opposite side, he collapsed in complete despair, changed his earlier silence, and chose to explode.
In fact, the big room and even the Xue family were waiting for his outbreak. As long as he raises his head on this matter, countless big hats will be buckled on his head. He has no ability to resist at all, and these people are all his elders, so his anger and unwillingness are all strangled in the baby.
This time, what happened in the dream happened again, what should he do
Xue Cuiping kept her mouth open and closed, and it could be seen that she was a little guilty in front of this pale and weak nephew. But these guilty consciences were hidden behind her mouth that kept opening and closing. Xue Gouzi's eyes were indifferent, but someone next to him couldn't help it.
Zhao'er's face was ugly, but she still forced a smile: "Auntie, you see that the dog has been ill for many days, and I just saw it better. He is not in good spirits. If there is anything, we will talk about it later."
In fact, Zhao'er knew that this day would come sooner or later, otherwise she wouldn't have been desperately trying to make money recently. But when these malicious acts belonging to relatives are approaching a little bit, and it is their own little man, Zhao'er can't ignore them.
She knew that it was her relatives who hurt the most, and she had suffered this kind of pain. When the mother left, she promised her that she would take good care of the little man, she swore.
At this moment, Zhao'er's eyes were bright, which was a sign that the female beast was approaching madness.
Xue Cuiping was frightened by the things in Zhao'er's eyes. She subconsciously shook her head and smiled uncomfortably. She didn't believe that a girl's eyes could be so scary.
"Zhao'er, auntie is enlightening the dog, the auntie is also for the good of the dog, for the good of this family..."
"Auntie." Suddenly, Xue Gouzi spoke.
Interrupting Xue Cuiping's words also interrupted Zhao'er's outbreak at a critical point.
Xue Cuiping hurriedly turned to look at him: "Dog, auntie tell you..."
"Auntie, I didn't understand what you said for a long time. What should the family's wishes come first? What does Kong Rong give pear to, what does eldest brother need from me? Aunt, you don't know that eldest brother has everything, grandma The uncle and aunt also love him. The ink, paper and inkstone are all bought from good ones. Every time he practiced calligraphy, he used paper. I could only use sticks to write on the sand and soil. On the rice paper, the ink drops are printed on it.
"My eldest brother has a lot of books. I only have one copy of "Young Learning Qionglin", which I bought when my father worked as a carpenter outside for a few months. I know that my book reading is not as good as my eldest brother's, and my writing is not as good as my eldest brother's. So I don't dare to ask for the same as him. I don't have anything, I really don't know what I can do to my eldest brother."
Xue Gouzi's eyes are lustrous, with a kind of incomprehension and doubts that are not familiar with the world. The envy in his expression implies inferiority, and the inferiority is also mixed with some sadness.
Especially when he was just recovering from a serious illness, his face was pale and only a handful of bones were left. Saying such words really brought tears to the eyes of those who smelled the sadness.
These words made Xue Cuiping speechless. She felt distressed and ashamed, and felt that she would have no face to see her second brother and second sister-in-law when she died. But the situation at home is imminent. There are no seeds during the spring plowing, and the wheat seedlings are not cultivated in time. If this season is missed, the whole family will suffer from famine this year.
She immediately became ruthless, licked her lips and said, "The aunt is talking about going to the school in the town. You see, your talented elder brother is better at reading than you. He is catching up with the critical moment. Anyway, you are one year younger than him, so it's not too late to go next year."
Zhao'er turned around abruptly and picked up the stick behind the door.
At this moment, Xue Gouzi spoke again: "Why let me? Isn't it supposed to be me? The uncle asked you to come? Did he forget what he promised my father before he died? The uncle said Treating me as my own son is a lie..."
The author has something to say: Start reversing.
The red envelope remains the same.
