“...... Lao Chen, come here, sit, sit first, I'll pour you a cup of water and tea......"

“...... Aunt Yu, sit ...... Don't you say everything, don't you need to mention things......"

“...... Chang, you can greet other people, you don't need to greet me, I just find a place to sit......"

“...... Some time ago, someone else brought me a piece of milk, and I didn't drink it, so I didn't open it, so you can take it and give it to your mother...... Mrs. Cheng is over there, so I'll go over and see Mrs. Cheng......"

The sun overhead is tilting toward the west, changing its position,

Some of the guests who had come from all over to the feast also went into the courtyard one after another.

The middle-aged man stood at the edge of the courtyard, smiling on his face, taking some firecrackers and drinks brought by the guests from time to time and putting them aside, beckoning the guests to sit down, and from time to time holding a kettle and pouring tea for the guests.

From time to time, some guests walked up to the old lady who was paralyzed in a wheelchair, visited, greeted, and sat down at the round table where Lian Ge was.

“...... Mrs. Cheng, do you still recognize me, if you want to recognize me, you can move your eyes. ”

Another guest walked into the old lady who was paralyzed in a wheelchair, and greeted the old lady with a smile.

The old lady was the same as before, just stunned and looked in front of her, but she didn't react.

“...... Mrs. Cheng, today is your birthday, your eldest son, filial piety, give you a big birthday...... Mrs. Cheng, you are blessed......"

The guest smiled and said in front of the old lady,

At this time, the old lady slowly rolled her cloudy eyes and looked at the guest, as if she had heard the guest's previous words.

“...... Mrs. Cheng, you still recognize me. ”

The guests were a little happy and said it out loud?

The old lady's lips trembled slightly, and she looked at the person in front of her.

“...... Mrs. Cheng? Then you can rest first. I went to sit next to it. ”

The guest said again and walked away again.

The old lady rolled her somewhat cloudy eyes, and as before, she collapsed in her wheelchair, just staring at her in a daze.

......

“...... In the past, when the old woman was young, she was not as crazy as she was later. ”

Aunt Xu looked back at the guest who came, then at the old lady who was paralyzed in a wheelchair, and continued to speak,

“...... It's pitiful to say. When the old woman was young, she was quite handsome, and she was also diligent. As a result, he married Xiaode's father's thing. ”

Then Aunt Xu turned her head and continued,

“...... Isn't that thing really a good thing? When Mrs. Cheng first got married, she couldn't show it? After a long time, the virtue of that thing was revealed.

Don't you like to drink? It's not that you just drink one or two taels a day, then you drink it like one pound or two pounds of liquor, get drunk, and when you go home, you will take your wife to drink crazy, be angry, and beat this old woman.

Before, my house lived not far from here, there was a river sill on the side of the river, and several families around were washing clothes there, many times, I was washing clothes there, and Mrs. Cheng was also washing clothes there, and as soon as she rolled up her sleeves, I could see her hands, one by one, all of them were silted, green, black, and everywhere were good, but there were no good injuries...... It's all that stuff got drunk and beaten...... That's pretty light...... Many times, this old woman has been beaten by that thing for several days and can't get out of bed, and she can't get out of the door......

Mrs. Cheng, but she gave birth to two sons to their family, this thing is really good......"

Aunt Xu said, and then looked at the old lady who was paralyzed in a wheelchair,

The old lady didn't seem to be aware of it, but just looked at her in front of her in a daze, as before.

“...... That's it, this old woman doesn't know how long she was beaten, and she didn't tell us, even if we saw it, she also said that she tripped ......"

That Aunt Xu turned her gaze, shook her head, and continued,

“...... Is it a trip, we can't see it, it's just that sometimes when the movement is big, when that thing beats the wife, we can hear it when we live close......"

“...... At that time, although it was possible to get divorced, there was also a saying about divorce, but at that time, if you got divorced, not only did you have no face to live here, but you also had no ......face in your mother's house."

Aunt Xu said, pausing again,

“...... This old woman endured it like that, and she lived like that...... I guess at that time, the old woman's brain began to be a little wrong. ”

“...... After such a long time, the old woman was about to get out of the head, and the thing got drunk and fell to death in the ditch.

It is said that in this way, although this person dragging two children will definitely be more affected, this old woman can finally suffer less sin, and she doesn't have to be injured at every turn, and she can be regarded as relieved. ”

"Results ......"

Aunt Xu said, couldn't help sighing, and then looked at the old lady who was paralyzed in a wheelchair.

A few old men next to him who seemed to know also shook their heads, a little silent,

“...... As a result, within half a year, the youngest son of the old woman also fell into the ditch and drowned. ”

......

Listening to Aunt Xu's narration, Lian Ge glanced at the old lady in the wheelchair,

The old lady was still the same as before, looking at her in front of her in a daze, as if she hadn't heard Aunt Xu's words, but her slightly open lips trembled a little, and her two hands on the wheelchair didn't stop, trembling a little violently.

Looking at the old lady, pausing her gaze, Lian Ge turned her gaze, and then looked at the courtyard next to her, the growing number of guests, and the middle-aged man who was smiling and greeting the guests, withdrew his gaze, and didn't say anything, just continued to listen to Aunt Xu's narration,

“...... After that, the old woman was completely crazy, crazy...... It is also a creation of iniquity. ”

Aunt Xu was silent for a while, and continued to speak,

“...... She's crazy, but it's easy, it's happy, it's her eldest son.

At that time, her eldest son, who was filial piety, was less than twenty years old. ”

Aunt Xu said, turned her head, and looked at the middle-aged man who was greeting the guests,

“...... I can't go outside to work, I can't stay away from this old woman, I have to take care of this old woman at all times, otherwise this old woman will go crazy and don't know where she died, so she can only do some odd jobs in the nearby villages, digging in the field, and just like that, she has to save money for medical treatment.

I can't marry a daughter-in-law, which family do you say will agree when they see this old woman......

It's all later, Xiaoshan's mother looks at filial piety, filial piety, and people are also diligent, plus Xiaoshan's mother is not young, so she got married, so that Xiaode can get married...... As a result, just like that, a few years ago, Xiaoshan's mother was still angry with this old woman and ran away......"

Turning her head and shaking her head again, Aunt Xu said again,

“...... So, the old woman looks like this now, in fact, it's okay, it's better than a few years ago. ”

Saying that, Aunt Xu didn't continue.

Glancing at the old lady who was paralyzed in a wheelchair again, Lian Ge turned his gaze and didn't say anything.

“...... Here, sit...... Sit down ...... first"

“...... Let's let it, let it go, it's served......"

The sky is getting darker, and there are more and more guests in the courtyard, mixed with some words, and it is gradually noisy and lively.
