Chapter 44: Gathering (14)
God occasionally loses his temper, which is not a shame to say that he will change. The sun was shining www.biquge.info before, but now it was cloudy and gloomy, and the clouds looked very low, and the wind was blowing, and the air seemed to smell rain. This rain can be regarded as alleviating the drought, as long as it does not last for a few days, it is good for crops.
Old man Cui stood under the eaves, looked up at the sky, this situation, I'm afraid this rain is coming! Old lady Cui was busy going in and out, and her mouth kept saying something. It is estimated that the old couple is in a hurry, but the worry is that the grandchildren have not arrived home yet, and I am afraid that this rain will have to be delayed!
Gu Sisi and Gu Xing'an had a good lunch with their family, and Gu Xinghua seemed to be in a better mood today. "Big brother, you went to my father's place on the stone steps this time, what's going on? Is it fun there? How does it compare with ours? Is the food delicious?" Gu Xing'an chased after Gu Xinghua and asked this and that, Gu Xinghua looked at Gu Xing'an, who was half a head lower than him, and replied with a smile: "The stone steps are in the mountains, and it takes a lot of mountains to get there, and the mountains on their side don't feel as good as ours, they look like ravines, and there are rivers or something, and the mountains are not too high." ”
Gu Xing'an listened with relish, his eyes stared straight at Gu Xinghua, "Big brother, don't stop, talk quickly, what else?" Gu Xinghua looked at the happy person who listened, and smiled, "Haha! The food there is almost the same as ours, not as delicious as ours!"
When Gu Xing'an heard this, he couldn't help but be a little disappointed. "I thought there was a lot of delicious food, you look at our county, there are a lot of food. "You, you just know what to eat, the county town is bigger than ours, of course you eat more! When are you going to the county seat?" Gu Xinghua didn't remember that Gu Xing'an had been to the county seat, at most he walked around the town.
Gu Xingan was embarrassed to touch the back of his head and said: "Hehehe, brother, didn't I listen to what my classmates said, saying that there is a lot of food, even the streets are very wide, and there are more fun places!" Gu Xinghua continued: "There will be a chance in the future, you will take the exam well in the third year of junior high school, and when you are admitted to the county high school, you can eat whatever you want!" The brothers talked hotly, and the adults laughed when they looked at it.
Gu Sisi sat in the shade of the pomegranate tree in the courtyard, weaving the goods he was going to deliver. Grandpa is going to deliver goods in two days, and he just went to town together, and he made two trips to save it. Ninety-five years, a small bamboo cage is only three pieces of five, the medium six pieces of five, the large one is only eight pieces of five, which is like 2016, a hand-woven small bamboo cage are 35-40 yuan, this gap is not a little bit.
Gu Sisi's mother, Chen Xinling, was packing up the things she brought back in the room, planning to sort out the things for her father, and said last night that she would go to see her father with her husband later. Chen Xinling's mother's home is in Chen Village, not far from Gujia Village, and the family population is not large, only the old father and younger brother, but now only the father is at home.
Gu Sisi's mother couldn't help but think of her younger brother Chen Xinyi, who graduated from a well-known engineering university in the south, and was admitted to a coastal unit in the south at a job fair in the school that year of graduation. In the early years, Chen Xinling's family was average, not rich or poor, but she could afford her children to go to school. But in this way, Chen Xinyi, who was in college, couldn't come back often, and spent most of his time working and studying.
Chen Xinling and Chen Xinyi are eight years apart, because her mother died early, Chen Xinyi was basically taken care of by Chen Xinling, so Chen Xinyi can be said to be obedient to her sister's words. Because of the Cultural Revolution, Chen Xinling didn't catch up with college, and then finally waited for the Cultural Revolution to end, but Chen Xinling's actual situation was not allowed.
Chen Xinling's father wanted his daughter to marry closer, so that it would be convenient to take care of the family, so he asked someone to introduce him to Gu Guoren, and he was quite satisfied at first, after all, Gu Guoren had a job, no matter what he did first, he always had a salary, and later knew that the old lady of the Gu family was a person who loved to find trouble, Chen Xinling was very hesitant, and once thought about quitting the marriage, but the old father had a good face, so he stopped being stunned and did not retreat, plus Gu Guoren was quite diligent, but he was not very good at expressing what he said, so the two got married later.
Life after marriage is really as Chen Xinling expected before, the old lady has nothing to do with the ability to find trouble, that is quite powerful, if the son buys something for his daughter-in-law, or helps, it must be a scolding, all swearing, once Chen Xinling seriously suspected that her husband was picked up, or how can she be a mother, just scold her son, and curse her son!
At the beginning, Gu Guoren obeyed his mother, and he really wronged his wife, Chen Xinling was fortunate to have a job in the county, and she had to be at home every day, so she might be scolded for something. But because of this job, I often asked the old lady to find her son Gu Guoren, saying that you have a job to work and earn money, and your daughter-in-law is a woman, what kind of work do you go to when you show up, and you are not ashamed! Why can't you stay at home honestly? Listen, is this what a mother should say to her son?
Although Gu Guoren was angry with his mother's actions, he still found an opportunity to tell his wife. Chen Xinling was very angry when she heard what her husband conveyed, and sneered at the old lady in her heart: What's wrong with a woman, you are also a woman, fortunately it's not under your eyes and nose every day, or you don't know what it's like now!
Then Chen Xinling said to her husband Gu Guoren with an expressionless face: "Why didn't your mother let me go to work, I didn't steal, I didn't rob, and I didn't ask her to ask for money! Why did she say that! If you don't let me go to work, you can give me all your salary, and don't hand it in in the future, if I have a child, I can't let my child drink the northwest wind! You go and call your mother back, see if she agrees, if she agrees, then there is another way, split the family, and pay her some money every year! You see, don't let me go to work, that's what I mean. ”
Gu Guoren looked at his expressionless wife, and then heard the words that reached his ears, which shocked him, his wife was married for the first time now, and he was angry for the first time, with his mother on one side and his wife on the other, he was caught in the middle, what should he do?
Gu Guoren could only remain silent, bowing his head and saying nothing. I don't know how long it has been, Gu Guoren's voice sounded: "Daughter-in-law, you, you still go to your class, I'll go to my mother's side and say, my mother may be for the good of the two of us, but... My mother has a bad temper, or if I am not at home in the future, you will take care of it more, if you really don't want to stay at home, go back to your mother's house!"
"Is that your mother-in-law, is there such a mother-in-law? I've grown up so big, but I really have a lot of knowledge! Gu Guoren, I can tell you, we can live this day, no, let's get together and disperse! Anyway, your mother doesn't like me, you go back and marry someone your mother can see and like!" Chen Xinling didn't know why, she couldn't hold back for a while, and said cruel words.
After listening to what his daughter-in-law said, Gu Guoren was a little angry, and pulled his daughter-in-law over, but he didn't control it for a while, Chen Xinling's hands and arms hurt when he pinched them, and before she could speak, "Daughter-in-law, what are you talking nonsense, don't say anything about separation! That's all for this, let's live a good life. ”
"It hurts, you let go of your hand first!I, I won't mention it, but if it happens again in the future, don't blame me!" Chen Xinling rubbed her wrist that was pinched red by her husband and said.
Gu Guoren also knew that his hands were heavy for a while, so he was busy kneading the red place for his daughter-in-law, and apologized vigorously, saying again and again that it was his fault and his fault. This is the end of the dispute between the husband and wife.
"Daughter-in-law, are you in order, we have to go, or it's too late..." Chen Xinling was shouted by her husband, came back to her senses, and just thought about her husband's words, her husband had already come over.
Gu Sisi and Gu Xing'an haven't seen their grandfather for a long time, so they plan to go with their parents, Gu Desheng looked at the gloomy sky, and hurriedly instructed the second family to bring an umbrella and a raincoat, if it rains, wait for the rain to stop and come back, don't worry, by the way, say hello to the in-laws, Gu Guoren and they all agreed one by one, then the family went out of the house, rode two bicycles, and drove in the direction of Chen Zhen...
