Chapter 17: The Luo family's mother and daughter
Bai Weiwei sighed lightly, carried the bucket, and poured it on the newly planted roots. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Alright, alright, alright." The mother-in-law's voice is soft, and she has a Shanghainese style.
Bai Weiwei grinned: "It's good to plant a few trees, you can block the light by taking a nap, and you can eat fruits in a few years." ”
The old man looked at her lovingly, and said slowly: "Child, ten years of trees, a hundred years of people, planting trees is like educating people, you are still young, you will know this truth in the future." ”
Bai Weiwei picked up the bucket and followed her mother-in-law to the west, and said as she walked: "I don't understand what you say, but my father also said at home that if you raise a child, you are afraid that you will raise a crooked tree and become a crooked neck tree. ”
Wen Xiu smiled faintly, and her tone was slightly nostalgic, "Weiwei's father is still so upright and humorous. ”
My mother-in-law lives in the West House, and the house where Gao Shuhui lives is next door to her, and the mother and daughter live next to each other.
The door of the West House crossed the threshold less than half a meter, planted a row of laurel trees, and the fragrance of golden cinnamon in August made the woman's heart happy.
Each laurel tree is spaced one meter apart, and plugged in to raise some yellow chrysanthemum, medicinal fragrance to raise people, since there is no need to say more, Gao Shuhui was more than ten years old when he just entered junior high school, the old man was happy, and planted a few crape myrtles.
Born in a famous lady, unlike a countryman, the son and daughter are very clearly distinguished, Bai Weiwei can see from this kind of flower and tree that her mother-in-law doesn't feel that Gao Shuhui is inferior to Gao Fengyi at all.
"Okay, it's done, I'm tired of you, kid, go back and rest."
The old man took the bucket from her hand, put it back to the well, washed his hands by the way, and wiped his forehead: "Fengyi is not at home, there is no fun in the countryside, life is sad, and my mother can't give you anything, just do what you like, people have a short life, don't let yourself be unhappy." ”
Bai Weiwei let out an "oh", feeling that the old man didn't understand what he said, and didn't understand it.
When I went back to the house and lay down on the bed, I closed my eyes for two hours.
The countryside is quiet, the afternoon nap is sound, and although the days are boring, it is better.
Bai Weiwei got up and cleaned up the house, and found two soda bottles from under the bed, a bunch of broken bottle caps, and a cigarette case that was empty, only two cigarette butts.
Oh, it looks like a very well-behaved and honest person, and he has also smoked behind his mother's back.
Bai Weiwei was happy, and hid the cigarette box in the small box behind her dowry box, and there was a folded couplet inside, with four words written on it: "A hundred years of good cooperation".
It was Bai Weiwei who was reborn and secretly put it away as a souvenir on the night of her wedding night.
When you encounter something troublesome in the future, you will take it out and take a look at it, reminding yourself to cherish the happiness of this life.
Bai Weiwei washed the two soda bottles, filled them with water, took scissors to cut a few plums back to the house and inserted them, and put them on the table.
She sat down on the kang, pulled the rest of the yarn clearly, and began to knit gloves again.
There are not many online lines, and after knitting that sweater, the rest is only enough to knit a glove.
Bai Weiwei is purely to pass the time, after her divorce in her previous life, her family was in the middle of the road, and she didn't learn anything, she went to Dongguan to enter the factory, but she learned the skills of sewing and weaving.
It's just that now the family is not rich, there is no sewing machine, and she can't use her skills, so she can only make sweaters.
In the evening, during dinner, a few more villagers came to visit the house.
One saw Bai Weiwei, and pointed the chopsticks at her nose: "Yo, it's the new daughter-in-law, she looks so handsome, the daughter-in-law of the Li family is not wrong, she is better looking than the daughter of the Luo family." ”
Mother-in-law naturally doesn't want to hear this, just live a good life, what is the trouble, "You lifted, there are few girls of this age, there are few unsightly, each has its own ingenuity, and it can't be compared." ”
"Hey, people can't wait to compare your family to the mud all day long, and they're afraid of her? It's the other way around. ”
No matter how much her mother-in-law persuades her, she can't stop the straightforward mouth of the two.
Bai Weiwei listened all the way, and she understood, Zhang Lamei really smacked Luo Guifen when she went back, or took advantage of the late dinner, and did homely work together, in front of the big guys, Hu Tianhai boasted that Bai Weiwei was so kind and kind, and shook off Luo Guifen's rumors about herself by the river, and finally the Luo family didn't do anything, and wanted to quarrel with her, her mother-in-law Aunt Li came out and said that she was going to Zhangjiawan and told a family called Zhang Daniu about what Luo Guifen did.
The Luo family immediately turned off the fire, Zhang Daniu's family found a good errand in the city, and relatives worked in the supply and marketing cooperative.
Even if it is a village flower, she is also a daughter in the village, how many can marry rich and noble?
If you lose this kind of son-in-law, where can you find it?
For the sake of this good family business, the Luo family endured it, who called Aunt Li's mouth, it was too boring.
Bai Weiwei eats lightly, does not speak, and from time to time gives a dish to the villagers.
People looked her up and down a few times, and said yes again and again, saying that Zhang Lamei was not wrong, she was a good person, but she didn't like to talk much.
At this time, Bai Weiwei didn't dare to speak, she was afraid that she would expose Zhang Lamei's affairs, and her mother-in-law would never like such a daughter-in-law.
I sweated in my heart, and I still won't do this pickling thing next time.
Bai Weiwei doesn't do it, it doesn't mean that others don't do it.
At this time, Luo Guifen was so angry that she smashed steel porcelain in her house.
Aunt Luo sat on the edge of the bed chattering endlessly, and Uncle Luo sat at the table sulking.
"Zhang Lamei's broken mouth will be torn for her sooner or later."
"What's the use of tearing her up? People are talking for the young lady from the city! Luo Guifen yelled at her father.
The man of the Luo family is used to being sent by his wife and daughter, he is honest and ruthless, let her roar not to be angry, and to soothe: "Fen'er, don't be angry, ah?" Dad Ming'er will go to the city to give you a dowry, and let you marry in a beautiful way, and no one dares to look down on our family. ”
As the saying goes, if a poor family wants to be rich, they should have fewer children and more trees.
The men of the Luo family don't have any skills, but the couple gave birth to a girl like Luo Guifen, who is a child in their hearts, with a small burden, and they don't suffer much.
This dowry, in the village, will not lose.
But Luo Guifen didn't think so, the scene when Bai Weiwei got married came to her mind, her family didn't go to Gao's house to see the happy event, but the few military vehicles outside the village were magnificent, and they didn't look like the army supply car on the farm.
She hid behind the earthen wall and peeked a few times, Bai Weiwei was wearing a red cotton jacket and cotton pants, stepping on leather boots, and a red handkerchief on her head, and the embroidered character on it was golden and hot.
It's a good craft at first glance!
