Chapter 262: Heaven and Hell
Most of the people sitting under the wall basking in the sun are village idlers or elderly people. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
These people usually have nothing to do, they love the east and the west, and now that someone has smoked and wants to listen to gossip, they must be willing to give everything they know.
Several old men took cigarettes and laughed while smoking: "It's amazing, Shen Lin's family is terrible." ”
"Uncle, tell me about it. The driver of the Song family squatted down and asked with a smile on his face.
A few uncles were very complacent, and smoked for a while before saying: "It turns out that Shen Lin is not Shen Laoshi's son, and I don't know what is going on, it may be that Shen Laoshi exchanged children with others back then, we don't know this, after all, the ancestral home of the Shen family is not our Shanghe Village, their family has fled from the famine for more than four years, and settled after liberation. ”
"What?" the driver was taken aback: "Is there such a thing?"
"Isn't it? An uncle stretched out his hand and asked the driver for two cigarettes: "You haven't seen the style of other people's mothers, ouch, I drove several cars, and I also brought people to wait, I heard that he is still from the United States, that is a capitalist society, where there is money everywhere, Shen Lin may not be rich." ”
"Uncle, do you know what Shen Lin's mother's name is?" the driver asked again.
The uncle shook his head: "Who knows, we haven't even seen what people look like, but, I heard our old wife say, the old lady is magnificent, and the clothes she wears are better than the wives of the landlord's old rich family earlier, and we don't know what kind of material they are made of, anyway, they are just good-looking." ”
Speaking of this, the uncle lowered his voice: "In the past few days, the people of the Shen family have come out to clean up, one by one wearing new clothes, dressed up energetically and neatly, they must have known that Shen Lin's mother was coming, and those new clothes, maybe the old lady paid for them." ”
The driver inquired about everything, scattered a box of cigarettes, and then returned to the car with a smile.
While driving, he told Song Zhi about the Shen family.
Song Zhi frowned: "In this way, Shen Lin's mother should be rich, looking at the panache, her status in the United States is not low, this matter is really difficult to do." ”
Speaking of this, Song Zhi shook his head: "Song Baozhu is really unlucky, you said that if the two children hadn't changed, now Song Baozhu would have followed the old lady to eat and drink spicy food, and it wouldn't be ......."
Song Zhi is still angry with Song Baozhu: "She is too eye-catching, her heart is higher than the sky, and her life is thinner than paper." ”
The driver didn't dare to talk, just drove seriously.
The Shen family threw Song Zhi out, and the family ate and drank, and after eating, Zhu Xue was obviously tired, and he didn't have much energy to speak.
Everyone knew that she was very sick, so they quickly called her into the house to sleep.
Zhu Xue lives in Shen Linxian's room, and now it is all cleaned up, and the bedding has all been replaced with new ones, although it is definitely not as good as Zhu Xue's own bedroom, but in Shanghe Village, such a house is uniquely good.
Zhu Xue is very content to be able to guard her son now, as for how she lives, she really doesn't care much.
After entering the house, Zhu Xue lay down, but she didn't sleep, and kept her eyes open and looked around.
Qian Guifang came out, called Shen Lin into the house, and told him to guard Zhu Xue.
But Qian Guifang pulled Zhu Lan into her own house and whispered.
Ji Qin and Shen Mei cleaned up the mess, and when they cleaned up the inside and outside of the house, a few people crowded into Qian Guifang's house to talk to Zhu Lan.
Zhu Lan looked at Shen Mei and smiled at her: "Eldest sister." ”
Shen Mei was a little at a loss, and she only knew how to laugh when she sat down.
Zhu Lan called one by one before asking Shen Mei: "Eldest sister, I heard my mother say that your two sons are not married yet, what's the matter? ”
For Zhu Lan, the money spent on several nephews and daughters-in-law is trivial.
In the rural areas of China in the 80s, even if the bride price was more, how much could it go? At most, it was a matter of a few hundred yuan, even a few nephews plus a piece, which was not enough for Zhu Lan to eat a meal.
But Shen Mei quickly shook her head when she heard this: "No, no, how can there be such a thing, we have hands and feet, we can make money and marry a daughter-in-law, but we can't take your money." ”
Seeing that Zhu Lan intended to give, Shen Mei refused very simply: "I can't ask you to raise a few of our families, your nephews are all young men, don't you have the ability to make money yourself? If they can't even earn money to marry a daughter-in-law, what can you do if you give them more? If you give more money, it's not a blessing, it's a disaster, you give a daughter-in-law now, and you won't give it when you have children in the future? What about building a house? There will be many things in the future, I can't rely on you for everything, if you are used to relying on it, this person will be lazy, and if you are lazy, everything will come out." ”
Shen Mei said this badly, but Li'er was such a reason, so Zhu Lan could only nod when she heard it.
Shen Mei smiled again: "Besides, let's follow the forest to get that greenhouse vegetable, and if we harvest a few stubbles this winter, we will definitely be able to make a lot of money, and we will spend the money we earn comfortably." ”
Zhu Lan agrees with Shen Mei's point of view very much, and feels that these three sisters are all reasonable, and for these relatives, they are even more estranged, and they are also a lot closer.
Shen Ju sat beside Zhu Lan and asked with a smile: "Little Si, you tell us about the United States, I heard that the United States is rich, that is, the beggars eat better than the rich in our country, and those who can't earn money still give money every month, what kind of shopping mall can you eat and drink casually, is this true?"
When Shen Ju asked, Qian Guifang listened.
Shen Linxian happened to come in with tea, and immediately laughed when he heard this.
Zhu Lanzheng didn't know what to say, and when she saw Shen Linxian smiling, she pointed at Shen Linxian: "You ask Linxian, she knows best." ”
Shen Linxian put the teacup on the table, poured water over, and then started with Qian Guifang, a cup of tea for each person.
After serving the tea, she sat down and said with a smile: "Second aunt, you listen to other people's nonsense, how can there be such a good thing, beggars are beggars everywhere, and they eat leftovers that others don't want, and they have to beg for money to make a living, and they come and go in the wind and rain, they should be cold and cold, and they should be hot and hot, and they will suffer everywhere." ”
Shen Zhu nodded: "Also, those who ask for food don't even have a place to sleep, so they will definitely suffer." ”
Shen Linxian said again: "As for the state support, there must be such a thing, but not everyone can do it, if there are specific conditions, such as no ability to work, this has to apply, such people are a minority, not many, and you said that you can eat casually in the supermarket, that's true." ”
"Huh?" Shen Ju exclaimed, "This is a good thing, but not everyone can eat enough?"
Shen Linxian smiled again: "You can eat it, but after you finish eating, people will definitely ask you to pay, and if you don't have money, you will be beaten." ”
"Alas!" Shen Ju sighed after hearing this, a little listless: "There is nothing good about that rice country." ”
"It's the same everywhere in the world, there are poor and rich, our country has it, and the country of rice also has it, but the gap between the rich and the poor in the country is worse than ours, it is a paradise for the rich, but it is also a hell for the poor. After Shen Linxian finished speaking, he said to Shen Ju again: "And the class of the rice country is clear, there are many people there who despise us Chinese people, and the life of the Chinese people in the rice country is not very good." ”
When Qian Guifang heard this, she turned her head to look at Zhu Lan: "Little Fourth, what Lin Xian said is true......? How are you doing?"
Zhu Lan sighed, thinking of the days when she followed Zhu Xue to work hard in the United States when she was a child, her face was also full of sadness: "It's much better now, I ...... when I was a child It's quite bullied anyway. ”
Zhu Lan didn't say it carefully, but Qian Guifang and the others also knew that her life was not very easy when she was a child, so they didn't chase after her.
