“...... In the end, the charity was stunned and had no choice, and really returned the money.

After the money was returned, the little one felt that he was panicked with the money, so he didn't ask for any of it, and it all went into the big one's pocket. ”

As he spoke, the old man turned his head, glanced towards the mourning hall on the side of the courtyard, and sighed slightly,

“...... At that time, the matter finally caused a stir, and the whole village knew that since then, the old lady has stayed at home all day and rarely goes out again. ”

Turning his head, the old man shook his head slightly and continued,

“...... At that time, I also came to comfort her and told her that children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and let them toss the affairs of their children and grandchildren. Just let her live her own life, after all, she is older, relax her heart, let her go out for a walk if she has nothing to do, and relax.

She told me that her daughter-in-law had made things like this, so that the whole village had to gossip behind their backs, and she really didn't have the face to go out. ”

“...... At that time, there were indeed some broken-mouthed people in the village, gossiping behind their backs. ”

As he spoke, the old man glanced at the villagers sitting around the dining table,

The people eating at the table slowed down when they heard the sound, but no one made a sound.

The old man shook his head and continued to say to Lian Ge,

“...... Since then, the old lady has been haunted by it, choking in her heart, not seeing any smile on her face all day, and sighing at every turn. In addition, he is old, and his body collapses all of a sudden, and the whole person looks thinner.

I was bedridden last winter, and I thought I wouldn't survive the winter, but I survived...... Who knows, this year is only autumn, and I can't stand it, so people are gone. As he spoke, the old man sighed slightly.

Hearing this, Lian Ge glanced at the old man, nodded, and didn't say anything.

The old man restrained his emotions and picked up the chopsticks again.

“...... Don't talk about that, let's eat vegetables. ”

Lian Ge nodded slightly, and also picked up the chopsticks.

......

At the funeral banquet, around the dining table, the people from the village and the people who came to mourn sat around.

Although it is not too noisy, it is not too deserted, and the people at each table are talking to each other, and it seems to be a little lively.

At the dining table, Lian Ge was eating his meal, casually talking to the old man next to him.

“...... Mr. Xiao is out on a trip?"

"Sort of. ”

“...... Did Mr. Xiao come from Jizhou Province, or from the capital?"

"Over there in the capital. ”

"That's not a good road......

Listening to the old man's words, Lian Ge paused slightly, and glanced at the dining table next to him,

Seeing this, the old man also paused and followed Lian Ge's line of sight.

At the table next to him, the family of the host, the couple, who were eating at the same table with the old gentleman, stood up at this moment,

“...... Or I'd better go. The woman took the man's arm and said,

"Forget it, you don't know what virtues that woman has, and when you used to be in the past, she was yin and yang again, and said something unpleasant...... I'll go, I'll come back when he says yes, he can come if he wants, and if he doesn't want to come, it's not that I can't handle my mother's funeral. ”

As he spoke, the man turned and walked out of the courtyard, and the woman looked at her, but did not stop her.

On the side, after looking at this scene, Lian Ge withdrew his gaze, picked up the chopsticks and continued to eat unhurriedly.

"It's really ...... to be like this, brother, it's really " The old man also turned his head and sighed slightly,

Hearing this, Lian Ge glanced at the old man and said in a calm tone

"Sir, you should have grown up watching these two brothers, right?"

“...... Yes, look at the growing up. The old man nodded, picked up the chopsticks again, and leaned against the bowl, "When I was a child, these two brothers were really related, and they were inseparable wherever they went. The little ones like to follow the big ones, and the big ones like to protect the small ones.

When I was young, I was wild, and I was climbing trees and picking fruits all day long, and going down to the ditch to fish. When he climbed the tree, the big one was guarding under the tree, staring intently at his brother, and when he went down the ditch, the big one was guarding downstream......

There was a time when the little one had to tease the dog, and as a result, he got into trouble with other people's dogs, and he pounced on him and wanted to bite him, but the big one immediately went over to protect him, and the dog bit the big one on the leg.

The big one was afraid that the dog would chase after his brother, so he didn't run, so he hugged the dog and told his brother to run quickly and call someone......

By the time we got there, the dog was still biting the leg of the big one, and the bite was bloody and fleshy.

The big one now still has a scar on his leg. ”

Listening to the old man's words quietly, Lian Ge didn't say much.

At the dining table, sitting around the village people who were slightly older in the middle grade, listening to the old man's words, he couldn't help but be a little silent,

“...... It's a pity that after they got older, after the two brothers became a family, the situation changed. When you were planting, you were fighting for the position of the field, and today you moved the ridge to my side, and tomorrow you will think that you have cut the vegetables in my field...... Noisy all day long for some things, before their two houses were still leaning together, and then the small one earned some money, ready to build another layer on the original house, the big daughter-in-law said that in this way, the small roof of this house is higher than the roof of his house, and her house is shaded, and her family feng shui is damaged,

Later, the small one simply built the house here, and the big one was also vindictive, and directly repaired the house to the entrance of the village. As he spoke, the old man shook his head,

“...... If you want me to say, it's still a discordant between the concubines, otherwise the two brothers won't make such a fuss even if they break their heads. ”

At the dining table, another person paused his chopsticks and answered,

“...... The discord between the concubines can be seen, but I haven't seen them make a big fuss, how did they make a fuss in the first place?" another person next to him couldn't help but say,

"Hey, you don't know. The person who answered the phone before laughed, then leaned forward, looked at the villagers at the table, lowered his voice, and said mysteriously

"The eldest one got married first, you know?"

"Who doesn't know this?" said one of the people at the table, shaking his head,

"Then you don't know, in fact, the daughter-in-law of the big one has a younger sister. ”

Hearing this, some of the people sitting around the table became interested, and they also leaned forward slightly, while the old man beside Lian Ge shook his head slightly, as if he knew about it.

Glancing at the person who spoke, Lian Ge withdrew his gaze, took the chopsticks, and listened quietly while continuing to eat the food on the table in no hurry.

“...... At the beginning, after the eldest daughter-in-law got married, she saw that the little one didn't have a daughter-in-law, so she wanted to introduce her sister to the younger one.

But she had no virtue, and her sister was not much better, and she was snarky, like a shrew, and her reputation in their village was bad. After the little one went to see it, he didn't like it at all, and when he came back, he told his brother.

The eldest daughter-in-law still wants to make up her sister and the younger one, but the younger one knows what virtues their family has, so how can they still agree.

Later, the younger one was introduced by others and married the current daughter-in-law.

After the eldest daughter-in-law was there, she hated the small family.

I guess it's also blowing the pillow wind for this big one all day long, saying that this small one is not good, that's not right, it's okay at first, after a long time, these two brothers can you still get better? Slowly the contradiction will rise, plus the virtue of the eldest daughter-in-law, these two brothers will become like this......
