Chapter 17 A Honest Family

In this era, I was already poor, but within two years, the production was distributed to the household, and the main labor force of a family was missing legs, how would I live in the future!

Tao Zhenzhen asked, "Are they still in the county?"

"No, I'm back, I'm at home, how can I stay in the county hospital permanently, I can't afford to live there!" Aunt Li hesitated a little as she spoke, "I heard that your second sister went back to her parents' house to borrow money and didn't borrow it, otherwise maybe she could save her leg when she went to the provincial capital!"

No one can say for sure this kind of thing, Tao Zhenzhen doesn't know the severity of her second brother-in-law's injury, and she doesn't know the level of medical care in this era, she can't take it, so she thought about it and said, "I'll go over and see my second sister." ”

She called Yang Weiguo and told him about the second sister's house, Yang Weiguo looked at it, the crowd of people who went to work had gone away, only Aunt Li was beside him, he took out two yuan from his pocket, "Buy a canned food for your second brother-in-law, don't go empty-handed, it's not good-looking." ”

Tao Zhenzhen felt that the two yuan were a little hot, but she didn't refuse, and took it in front of Aunt Li, "I know, then I'll leave." ”

Aunt Li said, "My nephew is just about to go back, you can go with him." ”

Aunt Li's nephew was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, and he followed her to the township supply and marketing cooperative, bought two canned fruits, and carried them to Dagou Village, where the second sister's house was located.

Dagou Village is in the mountains, when the second sister got married, married to the second brother-in-law's family with a lot of labor, but within two years the old people died one after another, the second brother-in-law was the oldest in the family, and the family did not even have a place to live, so he borrowed the money of the production team to build a shack to live in, and it was not until the first two years that he took off the billet and built a two-room grass house.

The second sister's family is in difficulty, and when she returns to her parents' house, she is not welcomed, and Tao's father and Tao's mother are only rare and the old Tao Zhenzhen is really young, and the two big ones are obviously not as attentive as the small ones. In addition, the second sister-in-law is in charge of the family, and it is conceivable what the treatment of the second sister when she returns to her parents' house.

Aunt Li's nephew is called Wang Baosheng, looking at her very curiously, I guess I haven't heard less about her "deeds", this young man is a talkative, along the way Tao Zhenzhen learned a lot of things about the second sister's family from him, the more she listened, the darker her face became, this is a poor woman!

Tao Zhenzhen is not a virgin, but she doesn't mind helping as much as she can.

What's more, this second sister is really good to the original owner, the original owner has no heart and lungs, but she can't do it.

She is a person who respects me a foot, I will respect you a foot and a half, and she will take it to heart and respond to the kindness of others.

The second sister is only ten years older than her, but she looks like a woman in her forties, old and dark, and when she saw her, she was stunned for a moment, and then wiped her tears and said in surprise: "Why is it really here?"

"Second sister, I heard that the second brother-in-law's leg is ...... I'll come over and take a look. She handed over the canned food, "I just got married, and I don't have any money in my hand, so the second sister will make up for my brother-in-law!"

The second sister took it and wiped her tears, "If you come, what else can you buy...... I didn't know until you got married two days ago, and my mother didn't bring me a letter......"

She brought Tao Zhenzhen into the inner room, the room was very small, the windows were smaller, the room was dark, there was a skinny man lying on the kang, with a broken quilt with cotton wool on the bed, and a little boy sitting and eating fingers, with no true colors buried on his face......

Tao Zhenzhen knew that the countryside here was very poor, and she didn't know what the Tao family and the Yang family were like, but she was shocked by the poverty of the second sister's family.

The shabby grass house was shorter than the one she lived in, the windows were small, the room was covered with yellow mud plastered walls, except for a pit was a bench, and a few tattered wooden boxes were placed opposite the kang.

In addition to the pot stove, there was only a wooden table with trembling legs, and on it were the leftover pickles, plates, bowls, soy sauce and vinegar, etc., and there was not even a bowl rack.

"Chun'er's father, I'm really coming to see you. The second sister called softly.

Liu Changqing opened his eyes, glanced at her weakly, and said softly: "It's really here, sit down!"

Tao Zhenzhen said a few words, and went out to the Westhouse with the second sister. "Second sister, how many are the big ones?"

The second sister's family has four children, the youngest is only three years old this year, and the three eldest are twelve years old, nine years old and seven years old in turn.

"I went out to collect firewood. The second sister sighed, "Your second brother-in-law is like this, I have to serve him at home, I can't leave, the children are fortunately sensible...... By the way, really, how did you hear that?"

Tao Zhenzhen said: "My neighbor Aunt Li's nephew happened to go to her house to find out. Second sister, I see that the second brother-in-law is very thin, his leg has been amputated, and he has to supplement his nutrition......"

The second sister sighed and said: "Can I not know? But the family really has no money, and there is no money this year, and when the money is returned, there is nothing left in the team's hands.

Tao Zhenzhen asked: "My second brother-in-law, this is also a work injury, right?

"What's the saying? The team gave you the money for treatment and hospitalization, and you still want people to do something? Your second brother-in-law is not good at all, and he can't complain about others, you said that it's okay to go back to the mountain, but that day he was evil, he ran and stood up, so why don't you wait to be smashed?"

Tao Zhenzhen saw that she didn't mention what she heard on the road, and couldn't help asking: "I heard that the team gave a sum of money that is considered work-related injury compensation, where did this money go?"

The second sister was stunned for a moment, and said, "I haven't paid back much." ”

Tao Zhenzhen sighed, the second sister was too honest, "Second sister, the money was for the second brother-in-law, and you just gave it to them?"

The second sister lowered her head and looked sad, "If you don't give it a good look, come here to block the trouble, your brother-in-law is not resting well, not to say that we owe them money......"

"Do you owe it?"

The second sister sighed one after another, and for a long time she waited impatiently before she said: "It is said that when your second brother-in-law married me, the family owed it in order to make up the fifty catties of bud rice noodles, and your second brother-in-law didn't know about it, but his brothers and sisters-in-law all said that it was like this, and even the neighbors said that there was such a thing......"

She wiped away her tears, "If we don't give it back, then what will it be? Your second brother-in-law will have to pay ......it back."

What else can Tao Zhenzhen say, he can only say that this family is too honest.

She knew about the fifty catties of bud rice noodles at the beginning, the second brother-in-law was the eldest in the family, and she fell in love with the second sister, but the Tao family was in difficulty, and it was just when the second brother wanted to marry a daughter-in-law, the condition proposed by the Zhang family was fifty catties of bud rice noodles, and the second brother-in-law's family took out so much food and surprised everyone, who would have thought that after so many years, these people were waiting here......

"Second sister, if you agree, I'll go to the second brother and sister-in-law and ask them to come forward and help you get the money back, even if you want half of it back?"

"No, no, we admit it, and if everyone says that, it can't be wrong. The second sister was startled and hurriedly waved her hand, for fear that this flamboyant and unwilling sister would run to her mother's house to find someone.

If she wants the money back, she doesn't have the face, if she really wants to be in the village, their family will not be able to stay in the village.
