At the door of the old village chief Zhou Dazhu's house, there was a commotion. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Zhou Qi's mother-in-law, Jinhua's mother-in-law, came out of the house and went straight to the house of Zhou Dazhu, the father of the village chief Zhou Hongming.

Zhou Dazhu has a son and two daughters, and his son is Zhou Hongming, both daughters are older than Zhou Hongming and married to the town.

Although Zhou Dazhu and Zhou Hongming are not separated, they do not live together. Zhou Dazhu doesn't like his daughter-in-law Li Cuilian's temperament, so he can't get angry when he lives together.

Zhou Hongming and his wife lived in the new house that Zhou Dazhu built for them when Zhou Hongming got married. Zhou Dazhu's old couple lived in an old house only a dozen meters away from Zhou Hongming's house.

Mother-in-law Jinhua is short in stature, and her feet are wrapped in small feet before liberation and then put her feet. Wrapping small feet is a bad habit left over from feudal society, before liberation, some large families choose daughters-in-law, one of the criteria is that girls should have "three-inch golden lotus".

"Three-inch Golden Lotus" sounds good, but it is actually terrifying. Three inches -- the length of an adult's hand. No matter how small a person's feet are, they are longer than the palms of their hands, right?

If you want to turn your feet into a "three-inch golden lotus", the pain is unspeakable. When wrapping her feet, the girl's age should not be too big, otherwise, the bones of the feet will grow hard, and the small feet will not be easy to wrap. Generally speaking, girls cannot be more than seven years old, and when they bind their feet, the woman will break the girl's toe bones one by one, turn them over to the bottom of the footboard, and then wrap them tightly with strips of cloth.

Feet that grow like that are deformed. What's more, breaking bones and growing them all over again is already a very painful torture.

Jinhua's mother-in-law's family has been poor farmers for several generations, and it stands to reason that this kind of "three-inch golden lotus" respected by large families can't be pulled on her at all.

Mother-in-law Jinhua is a poor person, when she was eight years old, her mother died, and Mother-in-law Jinhua's father was a bad gambler, and after losing all her family resources at the gambling table, she hit the idea on Xiao Jinhua.

A little girl of seven or eight years old, even if she sells it to a big family as a maid, she can't sell it for a few dollars. Jinhua's father was ruthless, and invited a mother-in-law to wrap Jinhua in a small foot, planning to send Jinhua to a big family as a concubine in a few years, so that she could sell it for a little more money.

The process of crushing and regrowing the bones was painful, and Xiao Jinhua not only died with pain in her feet, but even her heart was drenched in the blood of her outrageous father's wound. An eight-year-old little girl has no ability to survive on her own, and Xiao Jinhua has no other way than to accept her fate.

In less than half a year, the whole country was liberated, and Xiao Jinhua's feet were also liberated. In order to protect women and children, the state has issued a special order not to allow the persecution of women and children such as foot binding.

However, after all, Xiao Jinhua's feet had been seriously injured, and even if she let go of the wrapping footsteps later, it would be impossible for Xiao Jinhua's feet to grow back to their original shape.

Jinhua was released not only by her feet, but also by her dead heart. After letting go of the little feet, Jinhua no longer blindly obeyed her father, and when she was sixteen years old, she found a young man from the same village to marry, and she didn't ask for a penny of bride price, and the angry Jinhua father jumped straight to his feet.

For decades, Jinhua's feet have been swept when she walks, and if she can walk slowly, she won't go fast, otherwise, she may fall at some point.

Mother-in-law Jinhua walked fast with a pair of small feet today, and the magic was that from her house to Zhou Dazhu's house, there was a distance of more than 100 meters, and Mother-in-law Jinhua came over in one breath.

When Jinhua's mother-in-law came to Zhou Dazhu's house, she saw that the door of his courtyard was closed, and she didn't know if Zhou Dazhu and his wife were at home.

"Zhou Dazhu, you come out. Mother-in-law Jinhua blocked the door of Zhou Dazhu's house and shouted loudly.

Zhou Dazhu's house did not make a sound, today is the eighth day of the lunar calendar, and it is the big market in Sanhe Town.

Could it be that ・・・・・・ Zhou Dazhu and his family rushed to the market?

No, it's all here, there is no reason to go home like this, no matter whether Zhou Dazhu is at home or not, my son's grievances cannot be in vain.

Thinking of this, Mother-in-law Jinhua sat in front of Zhou Dazhu's house and cried loudly: "You goddamn Zhou Dazhu, what you say is like a fart, and it will disperse as soon as the wind blows." I think you begged so much to ask the old lady not to go to the town to complain, and after only two years, you began to look for the back account?"

As soon as Jinhua's mother-in-law started crying, the neighbors around Zhou Dazhu's house ran out to see the excitement.

Zhou Dazhu has been the village chief of Zhoujia Village for decades and has always had a high prestige. In these years, no one dared to go to Zhou Dazhu's house to sprinkle.

"Mother-in-law Jinhua, what happened? The old village chief did something sorry for your family?" An aunt who was watching had pointed ears and vaguely guessed the meaning of Mother-in-law Jinhua's words. I couldn't help but ask.

Mother-in-law Jinhua ignored other people's questions and continued to cry: "Zhou Dazhu, Zhou Dazhu, when you begged the old lady, the old lady agreed without saying a word. Your son has sat firmly in the chair under his ass for the past two years, and he won't be able to speak~!"

Ah? There is still a big gossip in this? Now, a group of onlookers stopped asking, and all of them pricked up their ears to listen to Granny Jinhua scolding the street.

Mother-in-law Jinhua raised one sleeve to wipe the tears on her face, and continued to cry and scold: "Pity my son~ I was involved by the old cow in the team and broke my bones, and now I am still lying on the bed and can't get out of bed~! Zhou Dazhu, Zhou Dazhu, your two fathers and sons are so ruthless, they want to starve my son's family to death, so that your family's official position can sit steadily~?"

"Granny Jinhua, what did the old village chief do? make you so annoyed?" an old man couldn't stand it anymore and asked. He is a member of the first team, and a few days ago, they distributed food, and their team specially forgave the debts of Zhou Qi's family, in order to let Zhou Qi's family eat big and small. Why are you still not satisfied with the debt reduction? Jinhua's mother-in-law still ran to the door of the old village chief's house to make trouble?

"Yes, yes, Mother-in-law Jinhua, we are all from Zhoujia Village, we know the difficulties of our family, this year, the big guy who distributed the grain voluntarily gave up the interests of his family and wiped the account for his family, how can there be anything?" An onlooker thought that Mother-in-law Jinhua was dissatisfied with the distribution of grain, and she was very unhappy. After all, Zhou Qi's family's debts at the beginning, her family also contributed a share, although it was only a few catties of grain and a few cents, but it was also a good intention, wasn't it?

"Big sister, thank you folks!" "Mother-in-law Jinhua is a good person, of course she heard the meaning of the aunt's words, hurriedly thanked her, and then said: "The villagers helped my son and his family, and the old woman is grateful, but Zhou Dazhu's father and son, who have lost their conscience, actually said that what the villagers agreed to is not counted, and asked my daughter-in-law to return the food to the team!"

"Huh?

"It's too much, how can this make his family live?"

"Why doesn't it count? I am willing to pay off the debts of my own family, who can say that it is not counted?"

・・・・・・

For a while, the sound of everyone's discussion "buzzed".
