Chapter 76: Spring Cold (3)
Cuihong's grief is greater than her heart dying, and she is full of hatred for Hao Guolan and Tong Jiafen, but she has nothing to vent.
Zhao Chenghai and his wife have different thoughts, they don't care about the failure of the matter between their son and Zhang Kexiang, and they even have some snickering joy in the middle of the heart. But he felt that it was a great shame to be scolded by Tong Jiafen and Hao Guolan, and all this was caused by his son Zhenhua. Therefore, his anger comes from Zhenhua.
Zhenhua's mind was a little delicate.
He was also very concerned about himself and Zhang Kexiang, but after hearing the news of Xiulian's beating, his concern for Xiulian in his heart actually exceeded his concern for Zhang Kexiang! He himself doubted, Zhang Kexiang and Xiulian, who is the protagonist of his feelings?
Wang Xiang looked at Zhao Chenghai and his wife, then at Zhenhua, and sighed:
"Hao Guolan, this old thing, is also a little too bad...... In this way, Zhigao and I will go to Lu Qiangwen's house to ask about the situation, and then discuss it with Brother Chenghai when we come back. It's all one village, so you can't just make a feud, right?"
Zhao Chenghai let out a long sigh and nodded.
Wang Xiang and Liu Zhigao glanced at each other, went out together, and went to the three groups of Lu Qiangwen's house.
The rest of the villagers didn't dare to go, and they were between Zhao Zhenhua's father and son, and they also took care of Cuihong by the way.
The barefoot doctor Zhou Guoming came, beckoned everyone to help Cuihong to lie down on the bed, measured her blood pressure and heartbeat, and said, "It's okay, get some brown sugar water to drink and rest more." ”
Chunlan hurriedly brought brown sugar water and persuaded her mother to drink a little.
Cui Hong shook her head, neither drinking nor speaking.
Zhenhua glanced at his father and said, "I didn't make trouble, believe it or not." Zhang Kexiang is there, I'll explain it myself tomorrow. ”
Zhao Chenghai didn't look at his son, and waved his hand again and again: "In the future, you will be you and I will be me, you will be a monk for a lifetime, and it has nothing to do with Lao Tzu!"
"Okay, you said it. Zhenhua nodded, walked to the door and squatted, silently smoking.
About forty minutes later, Wang Xiang and Liu Zhigao returned.
Zhao Chenghai raised his eyes to look at them and asked, "What did Lu Qiangwen say?"
Wang Xiang took out a cigarette and lit it, and said in a slur manner:
"I went to Zhigao and I and people said...... Last winter, Zhenhua went to the county seat, found a group of classmates from the Chengguan Grain Station, and stopped Qiangwen's son-in-law Gao Qingchun and Gao Qingchun's nephew on the road. Qiangwen's son-in-law was beaten, and when he went home, he beat Xiulian, and Xiulian had a miscarriage and was sent to the hospital. Gao Qingchun's meaning is Xiulian...... There are some ...... between him and Zhenhua Not clean. ”
Liu Zhigao nodded, took over and said:
"Xiulian got married, and she hasn't come back since she returned to the door, and she hasn't come back for the New Year. Tong Jiafen missed her daughter, and after the first month, she went to the county seat to see her daughter, and then she heard about it. Tong Jiafen felt sorry for her daughter, she couldn't get angry, so she took Hao Guolan to Zhangguigang to cry out for grievances, and came here to make a fuss again. ”
Zhao Chenghai gritted his teeth, looked outside the door and scolded: "This beast has lost Lao Tzu's face!"
Zhenhua was just outside the door, knowing that his father was scolding himself, he stood up and returned to the house, and said to Wang Xiang and Liu Zhigao:
That day, Director Shi and I went to the county seat to do errands, and at noon, Director Shi went home for dinner, and I went to the Chengguan Grain Station to find my classmates. Who knows, at the gate of the grain station, I met the bald man and a young man...... They didn't say a word, they came up and beat me, and I didn't fight back. Later, my classmate Zhang Cheng happened to see the young people from the grain station and beat them. It's not a light fight, but I don't blame it for this!"
Wang Xiang and Liu Zhigao were silent.
They did not see what was happening, and they did not dare to decide.
Zhenhua said again: "Uncle Xiang, Senior Master, please accompany me and go to Xiulian's house again." Lu Qiangwen's son-in-law is not dead, I am not dead, and my classmate Zhang Cheng, we can face the gong and drum in front of each other to figure this matter out. ”
Wang Xiang looked at the time and said, "Zhenhua, you still don't go, tomorrow, Zhigao and I will go to Qiangwen's house again, say your words, and let them think for themselves." ”
Zhenhua snorted and went back to the door to smoke.
Lu Qiangwen stood up, waved his hand and said, "Let everyone laugh, let's go back, and talk about this tomorrow." Early tomorrow morning, I'll ask Director Shi. ”
The people persuaded them again, and they went away.
Zhenhua went to see his mother again, explained the events of that day, and then said, "Don't worry about Zhang Kexiang's matter, I'll explain it to her myself tomorrow." ”
"Tomorrow morning, Mom will accompany you. Cui Hong took her son's hand.
Zhenhua nodded, comforted his mother a few more words, and went back to his room to sleep.
The house is not completely finished, there is no door, and there are no windows, Zhenhua is in the corner of the room, set up two wooden planks to spread the futon, and will sleep on it.
The cold of this inverted spring was fierce, and in the middle of the night the wind howled loudly, like the roar of a wild beast.
Zhenhua woke up from the cold, sat up wrapped in the quilt, and smoked silently.
After taking two puffs of cigarette, Zhenhua suddenly thought of Qi Lei. If Qi Lei was still at home and knew that Xiulian had been beaten and miscarried, what would be his reaction?
Under the gardenia tree, Zhenhua is the eldest brother, Qi Lei is the second brother, and Xiulian is the third. Qi Lei said to Xiulian: "Third child, no matter the ends of the earth in the future, if anyone dares to bully you, it will be a matter of me and Zhenhua." If anyone dares to touch a hair of yours, Zhenhua and I will tell him to pay a thigh!"
It's a pity that Qi Lei went to work, otherwise, Zhenhua would definitely discuss with Qi Lei, should he go to the county seat and abolish the greasy man with safflower?
Thinking of Xiulian's decision on the day of her wedding, Zhenhua became lonely again. Forget it, Xiulian is married, and the three knots don't exist anymore, what do you want to do so much?
In Zhenhua's thoughts, the sky gradually brightened.
Outside the window, it was white, and it was already snowing everywhere, and it was winter again overnight.
The wind was a little lighter, but the snowflakes were getting denser and bigger.
Zhenhua got dressed and got up, washed up, and watched the snow in front of the door.
Under the threshing floor in front of the door, there are two peach trees, and the peach blossoms bloomed a few days ago, and they are bright red.
The day before yesterday, Zhang Kexiang came to eat, and said that the peach blossoms were good-looking, and regretted that there was no camera, otherwise he could take a photo under the peach blossom tree.
But now, the peach blossoms on the tree have been blown away by the strong wind of last night, and the few small flowers left on the tree are also shivering in the cold storm and snow.
After staring at the peach tree for a long time, Zhenhua suddenly smiled bitterly. The weather is warm and cold, and the flowers of the peach tree are blooming, which seems to hint at the development of the relationship between himself and Zhang Kexiang.
When the weather was sunny and the peach blossoms bloomed, Zhang Kexiang accepted his confession and smiled like a flower; now that the spring cold is coming, the peach blossoms are gone, and the relationship between himself and Zhang Kexiang should be over, right?
Cui Hong also got up, washed her spirits, changed into new clothes, and said to her son: "Zhenhua, let's go to the town and explain it to Kexiang." If it doesn't work, we'll go to Zhangguigang, and I'll tell Kexiang's parents face to face!"
