Chapter 4 Gossip

As the saying goes, the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, but in the countryside, good things do not go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles.

Han Xi's mother Li Mei was divorced, and this incident made the whole village know.

Li Mei had just woken up, and before he could drink the hot water handed over by Xiaoxi, he heard a sound outside the window.

"You see it's still talking about how rich her family is, but now the man has run away and done evil. ”

"I heard that this man hooked up with Xiao San outside, and then divorced her. ”

"No, no, I heard that the woman of this family was stealing people outside, and the man of his family found out, so he wanted to divorce him. ”

The people in the village did not shy away from talking outside Han Xi's house, and they were not afraid that the poor mother and son would hear it.

Li Mei, who was in the room, heard these words, his face turned even paler, and these gossips gradually spread, which would undoubtedly cause endless trouble to their mother and son.

In this era, the feudal mentality of the peasants was still very serious.

Now they are the only mother and son in the family.

If there is no man in the family, it is equivalent to having no pillars and no support in the countryside.

Little Han Xi also knew that without his father, he could only live on himself and his mother.

Dad didn't come back before, he didn't send money home, and he and his mother lived well, but now that Dad is gone, he should say that he shouldn't be sad.

But Han Xi's heart was very sad and uncomfortable, and he didn't know how to comfort his mother.

Xiaoxi is very well-behaved and did not cry in front of her mother, she knows that her tears will increase her mother's burden even more and make her mother more uncomfortable.

The only thing I can do now is to stay by my mother's side every step of the way.

So Xiaoxi also sat beside her mother, listening to the discussions of the people in the village outside, and the mother and son were silent for a while.

Maybe her mother didn't want Xiaoxi to be sad, so she quickly adjusted her state and stroked Xiaoxi's hair.

kissed Xiaoxi's forehead, "Xiaoxi, Dad is gone, we have to be strong now, Mom knows that you can do it, we have to learn to live on our own." ”

Without waiting for Xiaoxi to speak, her mother got out of bed tremblingly, and just woke up from a coma, and her consciousness was not very clear.

So walking a little shaky, Xiaoxi jumped out of bed with a "bang", stretched out her hand to help her mother, but was stopped by her mother's hand.

Xiaoxi watched her mother walk into the sewing machine step by step, and this sewing machine was her mother's dowry.

In the cold season of winter, the ice and snow are not suitable for growing vegetables, so Xiaoxi's mother sews clothes in the room.

The sewing machine was so old that it was rusty and made a screeching "click" sound as it worked.

Xiaoxi also grew up listening to this voice, and she has always hated this voice.

Because at a very early age, Xiaoxi would be woken up from her sleep because she heard the sound of this hateful sewing machine.

This voice is also with her all the time when she sleeps at night, and sometimes she hears this voice when she gets up at night.

In Xiaoxi's life, the sound of this sewing machine has never been broken.

In Xiaoxi's eyes, in addition to working in the farmland, her mother sews clothes at home. There are also chickens, ducks, geese in the yard. Feed the pigs in the barn.

The vegetables grown are carried on a load and taken to the county market to be sold.

The fattened chickens, ducks and geese were tied to their feet and sent to the market to be sold.

Sometimes chickens, ducks and geese will leave a few eggs for themselves to eat, but my mother never eats them, and sometimes I ask my mother why she doesn't eat them. Mom's answer was always that she didn't like to eat.

My mother was always very kind, and when the clothes in the village were torn, they were all brought to her to be sewn and mended, and she never received a penny.

When they meet beggars, they always lend a helping hand to help them, even though their own families are poor.

Mom always taught her to be grateful, kind, and helpful.

My mother always went to the county town to collect the torn clothes and bring them back to be repaired, and then returned the clothes to the guests on the second trip to the market for a small amount of money.

In Xiaoxi's opinion, her mother is the greatest mother in the world.

She finally understood that the knowledge in the book can sometimes be wrong, good people have good rewards, and evil people have bad rewards.

This statement seems to be false, in one's own home, there is no good reward for the good, and there is no evil reward for the wicked.

From now on, Xiaoxi gradually saw that this society was not fair.

The original Xiaoxi thought that this world was like a fairy tale, a kind and harmonious world, without fighting, a happy and warm world.

But after experiencing her father's affairs and the gossip of the villagers, Xiaoxi also saw another side of this world.

Whether Xiao Xi wants to see it or not, this scene has taken deep root in this young heart.

What should I do? Without my father, what can I do to help my mother?

Before, Xiaoxi had never thought of this, she always thought that these were far away from her, and maybe Xiaoxi had never thought about these either.

But when all this came suddenly, what else could Xiaoxi do besides face it?

A little girl who is only five years old is suffering from things that should not be her age.

A little five-year-old girl who needs to grow up as quickly as possible.

From this moment, she may not know that the trajectory of her life has completely changed.

It's time for her to think about where the future holds.
