The old lady is of medium stature, her temples are already a little gray, and her long eyebrows are kind, which is the grandmother of the bolt. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Just now, Xia Zhi talked about the generations with the bolt pillar, and I knew that the bolt pillar grandmother was the same generation as the old man Tian and Tian Wang's family. Because his man ranks fifth in the Tunertian clan of the backing mountain, generally the people in the tunzi have to call her five grandmothers or five aunts or something.

Grandma Zhuzhu is older, and she comes to bring them food again. Xia Zhi, Xia Qiao, and Xiao Shu'er hurriedly stood up and called out to the fifth grandmother.

The old lady happily complied, and praised Xia Zhi for being well-behaved and polite, and then she personally grabbed plums from the basket and stuffed them into the hands of the three brothers and sisters, saying that they had just been picked from the tree and washed them, so that they did not have to worry about eating.

"In our poor place, at this season, that is, this little plum can still be eaten. Grandma Zhuzhu said with a smile, and stuffed the basket into Xia Zhi's arms and let her take it and eat it slowly.

There are very few fields in the mountains, and ordinary people live on the fruits produced by a few fruit trees on the mountains to sell their money. Looking at the bolt pillar and his grandmother's dress, you know that their family is not having a good time. And this almost half basket of fresh plums should be the best and most valuable thing in their house now.

The summer solstice was moved and a little embarrassed. I thought to myself, people are really different. Every time they came, they took things for their grandmother's family and gave money, but the old man Tian was never willing to let them pick the fruit from the tree and eat it.

For so many years, they had never eaten the fresh fruits of Old Man Tian's house. According to the old man Tian and Tian Wang's family, they are all to be sold and paid back to live, and it is a sin to give food to the children, that is, they will not live.

But Xia Zhi knew that Tian Dabao could eat fresh fruits.

Xia Zhiji asked Grandma Zhuzhu to sit down beside him, and took out snacks for Grandma Zhuzhu to eat. Grandma Zhuzhu said that her teeth were not good and she couldn't eat these things, and she had already eaten at home.

"It's an expensive thing, and you've given a lot of bollards. "Apparently a very kind, very understanding of human dealings.

Grandma Zhuzhu sat beside Xia Zhi, looking up and down the three brothers and sisters carefully with a pair of eyes. According to her, among the three brothers and sisters, Xia Qiao is the most like Tian, and Xia Zhichang is more handsome than Tian when he was a child.

"Just look at the three of you, Laidi's girl is a blessed person. Once upon a time, ah...... "Grandma Zhuzhu talked about Tian's childhood.

It turned out that Grandma Zhuzhu's family and Old Man Tian's family lived on the same street, and there was a yard between the two families. The affairs of Old Man Tian's family, Grandma Zhuzhu almost knows. She grew up watching Tian.

"I've been a beauty since I was a child, and that small appearance, not to mention how much people love. A golden phoenix can also fly out of the mountain nest. Better looking than their two sisters......"

"Fifth grandmother, my mother still has two sisters?" Xia Zhi asked, she really hadn't heard Tian mention her two sisters, and they had been in contact with Old Man Tian's family over the years, and they had never heard them come back to visit relatives.

"Ah, you~ didn't my mother tell you?" Grandma Zhuzhu's face showed a surprised expression.

Xia Zhi hurriedly smiled and said that they had heard: "I was young at that time, and I didn't remember it." My mother didn't say anything in the past two years. Fifth grandmother, tell us, what kind of people are my two aunts, where are they now, why haven't you seen them come back to visit relatives?"

Grandma Zhuzhu sighed and looked around again.

At this time, people went home to eat, so there was no one else in front of this land temple, only a few of them.

Grandma Zhuzhu thought about it and said, "It's nothing to tell you, anyway, this is something that everyone knows." ”

"Yes, yes, Fifth Grandma, you tell us everything. Xia Solstice hurriedly said. After getting along with the old lady for a while, Xia Zhi found that the old lady was kind-hearted and very good at talking. It seems that this point of the bolt's chatter should be inherited from his grandmother.

Grandma Zhuzhu opened the conversation.

"You~ Mother is standing in front of you, just two sisters. The eldest is called Zhaodi, and the second is called Daidi, they are all several years older than you~ mother. You~ Mother, it wasn't your grandmother who brought it up, it was her two sisters who brought it up. ”

"Oh," Xia Solstice nodded, "That's right." "In this day and age, this kind of thing is not uncommon. The adults in the family are busy with things, and there are many children, so it is a natural thing to bring the big ones with the small ones.

"Fifth grandmother, how old is my mother and my two aunts?" Xia Zhi asked again.

"You~ mother is ten years old behind your aunt and nine years behind your second aunt. "Although Grandma Zhuzhu is a little older, her memory is very good, and she can still say the birth date of the Tian family, so she naturally remembers the age of the Tian family siblings more clearly.

"Love, then between my second aunt and my mother, my grandmother and her have no other children?" Xia Zhi asked again. There seems to be something wrong with this age gap.

The difference between the eldest aunt and the second aunt of the Tian family is only one year old, this should be the rhythm of three years of life, and the difference between the two children is less than two years, even if it is one year old.

Old man Tian and Tian Wang are obviously very patriarchal people, and they gave birth to two in succession at the beginning, so they should be in a hurry to have a son. Such two people should have been young at that time, and after giving birth to two daughters, they would definitely continue to work harder to give birth to a son.

Therefore, between the second aunt of the Tian family and the Tian family, there is a gap of nine years, which is very unreasonable. Unless, who was sick between Old Man Tian and Tian Wang at that time and couldn't give birth for the time being?

"Both of them are in good health. An indescribable expression flashed on Grandma Zhuzhu's face, she glanced around again, and then looked at the three Xia Zhi brothers and sisters hesitantly, as if they were hesitating to say or not to say.

"Fifth grandmother, just say it. Actually, we know a few of them. Xia Zhi hurriedly urged.

"Your second aunt and you~ In the years between the two of them, your grandmother and your grandfather did not give birth to less, but they didn't stay. Grandma Zhuzhu told Xia Solstice. After the second aunt of the Tian family, in order to give birth to a son as soon as possible, Old Man Tian and Tian Wang's family have almost always maintained the rhythm of giving birth to two children in the past three years.

As for the fact that those children were not left, it does not mean that they all died.

“…… It's all girls, they said they couldn't afford it, and they just gave birth, so they asked your grandfather to throw it into the mountains to feed the wolves. Grandma Zhuzhu said in a low voice, and sighed deeply after speaking, "Do evil." ”

Xia Solstice was a little unresponsive. "They're all thrown on the mountain, hey, hey, hey?"

"Not really. Grandma Zhu nodded in confirmation, "This is something that everyone in our tun'er knows." At that time, your five grandfathers went to chop wood, and I saw that there was nothing left to eat. ”

Xia Zhi's face turned a little pale, and she looked back at Xia Qiao and Xiao Shu'er. Xia Qiao and Xiao Shu'er's faces were not very good-looking, and Xiao Shu'er also moved towards Xia Qiao's side.

It seems that the two brothers have not heard of this either.

Xia Zhi didn't want to be too shocked, lest Grandma Zhuzhu refuse to tell them again. Therefore, she barely managed to hold out a calm face, and it is estimated that it was not very successful, and Grandma Zhuzhu found out.

Because he was afraid that Grandma Zhuzhu would be suspicious, Xia Zhi hurriedly explained: "Fifth grandmother, are there still wolves on the mountain now?" They were frightened by the fact that there were wolves on the mountain, not the fact that Old Man Tian and Tian Wang's clan threw their newly born children into the mountains to feed the wolves.

"Yes, there are quite a few. Stay in the house at night, but don't go out and walk around. Sometimes the wolves in the mountains have no food, and they sneak into the tun in the middle of the night. Grandma Zhu immediately instructed.

Xia Zhi hurriedly nodded, saying that she would never come out at night.

"Fifth grandmother, this kind of thing, here...... Is it much?" After a slight pause, Xia Zhi asked Grandma Zhu carefully.

Grandma Zhuzhu was stunned, and then she understood what Xia Zhi was asking. The expression on her face was sad. "We are poor here, and we all rely on God to eat. There are too many girls, which is sad. However, we don't have that custom. ”

Grandma Zhuzhu solemnly told Xia Zhi that there was no custom of dying a baby girl when she gave birth to a child. This matter has also been done by the old man's family, and he has done a lot.

Because of this incident, some people in the tunzi looked down on Old Man Tian and felt that his heart was too ruthless. Such a person, everyone feels a chill in their backs when they see him, and they don't want to have any close contact with him.

Later, Old Man Tian's family simply lived behind closed doors, on the one hand, because Old Man Tian was independent, and on the other hand, because the big guy was very disgusted with him throwing a live baby girl into the mountain.

“…… The family can't afford to support her, but she can also think of giving it away, giving birth to her own flesh and blood, I don't know how many generations of talents are entrusted to ~ people, so I have to give her a way to live. Besides, the child wants to say that it is easy to feed, the adult does more work, the big guy saves a mouthful of food, and drinks the thin if he doesn't do it. We are poor in this place, but we have never heard of people starving. Grandma Zhu said in a rambling manner.

Xia Zhi, Xia Qiao, and Xiao Shu'er all nodded, feeling that what Grandma Zhuzhu said was very right.

Summer Solstice has doubts again. "Fifth grandmother, how did my mother, my mother, survive?"

Old man Tian and Tian Wang were born to Tian, but they still have no son. They have already thrown away so many baby girls, why did they suddenly not throw them away when they came to Tian's place.

"Who said they didn't throw it? You~ Mother was born, and let your grandfather take a dung basket and throw it into the mountains in the middle of the night. It was your aunt and your second aunt who went into the mountains together and picked you up~ my mother again. ”

"Ah, and this thing?" Xia Solstice was surprised.

"Absolutely. "Grandma Zhuzhu loves to talk, and Xia Zhi is an excellent listener, she listens carefully when she should listen carefully, and she asks questions when she should ask. Grandma Zhuzhu opened the conversation box and couldn't hold it. "In order to pick you up~ Mother came back, your aunt and second aunt were beaten by your grandfather. ”

"After your grandfather finished beating your aunt and second aunt, let them throw you~ your mother back into the mountains again. Your two aunts are stiff~ and didn't agree. Later, your grandfather didn't know what was going on, so he didn't care, saying that the child was left by your aunt and second aunt, and that they would support themselves if they were capable. ”

"And then......" Xia Solstice asked.

"Then your aunt and second aunt will raise you~ mother. Your grandmother has no milk, so your two aunts will save their own food, and you~ your mother grew up drinking rice soup and eating the little food saved in your aunt's and second aunt's teeth. ”

Xia Zhi looked at each other with Xia Qiao and Xiao Shu'er, it turned out that Tian had such a life experience, which was really unexpected.

"Then where did my aunt and second aunt go later?" Xia Zhi digested Tian's life experience for a while, and then asked Grandma Zhuzhu again.

"Where else can I go? Let your grandfather hire you to go to the mountains of the west, two hard-working children. Grandma Zhuzhu couldn't help but sigh at the mention of the Tian family's aunt and second aunt.

The so-called mountains in the west are even more remote and impoverished than the backing mountains. The mountain in this place can only be called a small hill compared to the mountain in the west.

The distance between the mountain and the official road is only ten miles away, and the mountain on the west side of the mountain takes ten days and half a month to get out of the mountain.

"Your uncle wants to set a daughter-in-law, your grandmother and your grandfather have no money, and seeing that your aunt and second aunt are also of age, they are both hired. The bride price was given to your uncle to set a daughter-in-law. "When the uncle of the Tian family set his daughter-in-law, the aunt and second aunt of the Tian family were already old, and they were famous old girls who supported the mountains.

At that time, it was not that no one came to the door to be a matchmaker for these two girls, but they couldn't afford the bride price that Old Man Tian wanted. Moreover, Old Man Tian's plan was that he didn't have much labor at home, so he would call the two daughters as men.

It wasn't until the uncle of the Tian family decided on a daughter-in-law that he had to need silver, so the old man Tian looked for someone who could give the most bride price and hired the two daughters out one after another.

"Didn't hire my mother?" Xia Zhi asked again.

"You~ mother-in-law is so good-looking. The bride price of your two aunts is enough to give your uncle a daughter-in-law. Grandma Zhuzhu said, "It's also thanks to that time that your grandfather was not willing to hire you like your aunt and second aunt~ Mother, otherwise, they wouldn't have a good life today." ”

There are no more of them.

Xia Zhi, Xia Qiao and Xiao Shu'er exchanged glances with each other, and the three children's moods were very complicated, and they couldn't find the right words to describe them for a while.

"At that time, I didn't hire you like your aunt and second aunt~ Mother, thanks to your aunt and second aunt for stopping me. Said that you~ mother's good-looking, can hire a good family, and still ask for a bride price, hey. ”

According to Grandma Zhuzhu, the eldest aunt and the second aunt of the Tian family can't say that they are really good to the Tian family, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are as kind as a mountain. But over the years, I have rarely heard Tian mention them. Tian wholeheartedly helped his mother's family, but he never said that he would help his two sisters.

Where are the aunts and second aunts of the Tian family now, and what kind of lives are they living?

Xia Zhi asked Grandma Zhuzhu again.

"Your aunt asked your grandfather to hire him in the mountains of Daxi, and I don't know what the place is called, I heard that there are no months of snow a year, and people in that place don't live long. They took the bride price and took your aunt away. After that, there was no news between the Tian family's aunt and the Tian family.

"What about my second aunt?"
