Chapter 24 The widow and widow are at the door
said that after Bin Wa died, his parents, who were Xianwa, and Qiao'er often quarreled inexplicably. This Qiao'er, whose name is Sun Qiqiao, is the younger sister of Mingwa in this village. When the Japanese ransacked Liuwan Village, it was the mysterious kiln that Mingwa and his father accidentally discovered when they were digging a patio in the wheat field opposite the courtyard gate, and saved Sun Zhenbang, Sun Zhenguo and even Liu Bingxian.
In other words, among the three big families, only one Bin Wa was shot and killed when the Japanese were ambushed in Yunling, and the rest were all fine.
Xianwa is not a pure farmer, this person can be a carpenter, and the craftsmanship is not crooked, in the persimmon Bay area can not be said to be very famous, at least many people know that his first baby wood is not crooked, but also wood carving, brick carving.
It is the craftsman who does not starve. After the Japanese surrendered, not only did the common people get the long-awaited peace, but also many houses needed to be repaired and even rebuilt before they could be occupied. Many monasteries and temples also need to be repaired. Of course, these jobs could not be rolled out all at once, and there were no professional units like later to undertake them, so they all relied on acquaintances and temporarily found suitable carpenters and masons to repair.
Anyway, the work in the hands of the first baby has not been interrupted for half a year. There are rich overhauls, no money for minor repairs, and those who run around, so it can be said that they are very busy. No, Xianwa has been repairing all wooden doors and windows in a temple on the eastern ridge for a while.
This temple is not small, in fact, it is a small temple, and the incense is quite prosperous. Xianwa came to repair it before, but this time people called him again. Because they're acquaintances, they take care of each other more.
The monks in the temple found that Xianwa had changed a lot from before when she came this time, and she often sighed and sighed, but she had no spirit. People often say that words are like people, in fact, the same is true for doing work, let's not say that it is wrong, even if the quality of the work and even the aura change with the change of the mood of the living person. On this day, the abbot wanted to talk to Xianwa. It just so happened that Xianwa was resting at this time, and the two chatted openly and honestly.
"The donor has been feeling depressed lately, wondering if he can help the donor. "Alas, there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is greater. Well, this is going to be extinct. "Hey, the old man looks at the face of the donor, he has children and daughters, why don't he have any worries. ”
"Oh, the fairy family doesn't know, the son died while fighting the devil, and the son gave birth to three women, but there is no boy. I was expecting him to give birth to another grandson, but this is good, he died, and he also cut off the incense. You say there is no spiritual head? "Amitabha. Oriental people are not greedy enough, harm others and themselves, and destroy heaven and earth. ”
"Oh, you don't understand that. The Japanese hurt others, how can they say that they hurt themselves?" "Donor, don't you understand the truth that you have killed more than 1,000 people and damaged yourself 800, the Orientals are fighting everywhere, the young and strong are all dead, and even the children are on the battlefield, isn't that harming yourself?" "Oh, it doesn't matter what it does so much, anyway, it is a scourge to us, and it is so harmful that it will be the last one." ”
"The donor is in good health, why not marry a small house and have children and reproduce, this is common sense. "Oh, this small family, and he is not a rich man, how can he marry a small one again." The fairy family is really a joke. "Amitabha. The donor can also let his daughter-in-law recruit people, wouldn't there be a queen?" "Oh, that's a false name, and it's not the bloodline of the Liu family. ”
"Lao Wei also has a way, so you don't have a son-in-law and get a grandson. "Oh, and this good thing? "Haha." The benefactor has heard of the idea of a heavenly heir. "I haven't heard of it, I don't know this. ”
"Amitabha. There are often some rich and noble families who can't give birth, so they send their wives and daughters-in-law to the monastery, eat fasting and bow every day, and finally get pregnant, so as to spread incense. "Is there such a thing?" "Amitabha, if you believe in it, you will have it, and if you don't believe it, you will not have it, and you will be good." ”
With that, the abbot got up and left. Xianwa heard the fog, so she squatted there and ate dry tobacco. In the next few days, Xianwa kept thinking about it.
As everyone knows, the wall has ears, but the conversation that day was overheard by an old monk. The old monk saw that Xianwa was preoccupied, so he pulled him to a secret place and muttered for a while, and Xianwa suddenly realized. Subsequently, Xianwa went to the abbot to talk about it in the secret room, then put down the work in his hand and went back temporarily.
After arriving home, I first told my wife Qiao'er, Qiao'er also wanted to try, the Liu family can't live without grandchildren. But when the couple talked to their daughter-in-law, it didn't go well. Qing'er said, there is no grandson, and the three daughters are also Bin Wa to be (born), so it will be okay to recruit a son-in-law for the eldest daughter in the future.
But Xianwa still didn't give up, and persuaded her bitterly, and said that as long as she asked for a grandson for the Liu family, the family would let her daughter-in-law be in the future. Not to mention raising children to prevent old age. In this way, Qing'er reluctantly acquiesced.
But who knew that after the daughter-in-law explained it, when she was about to leave, the wife Qiao'er had a new idea, saying that she would send her daughter-in-law by herself, so as not to gossip. This can make Xianwa annoyed, and he actually beat his wife. Qiao'er cried so much, Xianwa was so angry that she trembled, and her daughter-in-law watched a joke on the side.
Even Uncle Binwa is Mingwa was alarmed, and thought something big had happened. But the couple was afraid of embarrassment, so they didn't dare to tell the truth, so they made up their own way to fool Uncle Binwa.
A few days later, Xianwa drove a carriage and brought her daughter-in-law Qing'er to the monastery, and the abbot arranged a separate room for her. The black and pretty Qing'er is dressed in brand-new Chinese clothes inside and out, with long black hair coiled back and wrapped in a gauze bag, and a small flower pinned to her head. Although she is said to be the mother of three daughters, the people in the village got married early, and she was only in her early thirties at this time, and her charm was strong.
The abbot first let Qing'er bathe, then fasted for three days, and then burned incense and bowed every day. During this period, every three or five days, at night, I saw a masked man dressed as a monk who did not look like a monk entering Qing'er's room, and after a while, he came out and left. No one else knows what is going on.
The next day, Qing'er continued to burn incense and bow, but her face was a little warmer. After spending a while in the temple like this, this Qing'er is really pregnant. Coincidentally, Xianwa's carpenter work was also completed. So, my father-in-law and daughter-in-law returned to Liuwan in a carriage together.
I don't know what's going on, after this daughter-in-law is pregnant, the first baby is more energetic, her eyes are bright, and her face is watery, and the people in the village say that the first baby seems to be a few years younger. No, there were already few things, but now there are more and more, and it won't be long before Qiao'er, that is, Qing'er's mother-in-law, is also pregnant.
Ten months later, Mr. Qing'er gave birth to a boy, and then her mother-in-law also gave birth to a child. This grandson and son have come one after another, and double happiness is coming, but the first baby is happy, and it is an invitation and a wish, but it has been lively for a while, adding a bit of joy to the gradually recovering village. The grandson was named Liu Xuyao, nicknamed Yaoyao, and the son was named Liu Yiqing, nicknamed Qingwa.
Since this Qing'er died in Binwa, she and her in-laws took three daughters, and the sky-high price was either to do housework, needlework, or take care of the children, plus the pain of not having a son, the original life was also very monotonous.
But since the heir was given by God and had a son, her father-in-law didn't let her do anything else, and asked her to take care of the newborn baby wholeheartedly.
It is not uncommon to give birth to a son in his fifties. But the people of the village had never heard of such a thing as a god-given heir, so for a while there was a lot of discussion in the village. After dinner that day, a few men lit a lantern in the north building of Liujiajia Temple to play paper mahjong tiles, and a few people came in after a while.
"Oh, this baby has become a big news in the village, just. "Isn't it? It's a grandson and a son. "Sons are secondary, and grandsons are born strangely, don't you think?" "What do you think of other people's affairs, haha." "Ah, outside, no man can still have a baby, this is a strange story. ”
"Ah, in the past, those who couldn't conceive a baby, went to the mountains to burn incense, and there was it, which can be justified, after all, other men are here. "Yes. Just relied on a woman to go to the temple to take a bath, eat vegetarian, burn incense and worship, and conceive the baby. Oops, I can't believe this beating. ”
"You don't believe what's the use, people just gave birth, or a kid. "It's weird, that's it. "Ah, I heard this before, but I didn't expect it to happen right under our noses, I can't believe it's true. ”
"Hey, haven't you seen the first baby change all of a sudden?" "Ah, I used to talk to people when I saw them, but now I greet people when I see them." "People have happy events. "Outside, I see the sky-high price of serving my wife for two months, and I am not tired, oh. "Oh, it's hot, you try to leave it in the winter. "It doesn't matter what the hell is going on. "Ah, you're going to have a heart. ”
"Hehe, I see that this baby is a little too much. "What is going on too much?" "Too much energy. "Oh, I've been thinking too much, I don't have that spirit." "You still don't believe it. It's too much, that's not good. "Do you know what you are?" "What?" "If you can't eat it, you say it's sour." "Haha, that's not what it meant. ”
"Hey, I heard that the Eighth Route Army and Lao Jiang are fighting again. "War again?" "What can you say?" "Oh, I just drove the Japanese away, why is there a fight in the family." ”
"Who knows what's going on. said that Lao Jiang and the Eighth Route Army could not get along. "Say, Lao Jiang is not the real dragon emperor, and he can't unify everyone together, just." "It's hard to get it outside, dare not to be like the Han Tianzi and the Chu Overlord. "Hehe, you still know this. "If you don't understand, if you dare, you won't watch the show." "That's right. "That's not right. ”
In this way, the big guys played and talked until it was not early, and then they went home to rest.
In fact, the village is also talking about Yong'er at this time. That is to say, since Yong'er and Fanwa led the Zhuanghu people to fight the Japanese a few times, the status of Liu Huiyuan's family and even Liu Huizhi's family in Xitou Lane in the village has suddenly risen. After all, Baojiawei Village has made a big effort.
Especially Jiang'er, people used to look down on them, the old foreign car, serving people. But now it's different, it's Yong'er's eldest brother, and it's logical that a brother is more expensive than a younger brother. What's more, when Huiyuan and Huizhi were sacked by the Japanese in Liuwan, they fought for their lives and finally fell in a pool of blood, which should be said to be respectable.
The people of this village are also shallow-eyed, no, since Yong'er and the Eighth Route Army left, the neighbors and even the village leaders have called out to the generals.
As for the original reason, it naturally said: Ah, people have been in Beiping, they have seen the world, who else can they call if they don't call the general. And all that. Naturally, this is all gossip, so don't mention it.
