"What do you think?" Liang Xin asked Liang Yue rhetorically.

Liang Yue tilted his head, bit his fingernails, and said, "I don't think so." ”

"Why?" Liang Xin asked idly while lighting the fire.

Liang Yue stared at Liang Xin, gnawing her fingernails more and more forcefully, and whispered: "Because I also want to study, if my mother doesn't let me read, I will be very unhappy." But...... I don't dare to quarrel with my mother......"

Liang Xin's movement of sending grass to the bottom of the pot slowed down, and he turned his head to look at Liang Yue. The little girl's face looked timid, but her eyes were as eager as hers.

Every time she sees such a look, Liang Xin feels sad. Xu is that his lifelong desires have been suppressed, so he puts himself in the situation to understand that feeling. She raised her hand and touched Liang Yue's head, and said in a powerful voice: "Don't be afraid, there is a sister here!" ”

Liang Yue lowered his head and gnawed his fingers and stopped talking. She is still young, and she doesn't understand a lot of things, but she seems to understand a little - their family does not allow girls to be willful.

Liang Xin saw her gnawing her fingers hard, and suddenly slapped the back of her hand: "What's wrong, I don't know how to change it, look at the bald nails!" ”

Liang Yue hurriedly retracted his hand behind his back and smiled.

When the water in the pot boiled for most of the time, Liang Xin extinguished the fire at the bottom of the pot, got up from behind the stove, and said to Liang Yue: "Go and call grandma, let's help grandma take a bath, okay?" ”

Liang Yue also got up from the small bench and said happily: "Grandma is outside the door, I'll call it." ”

Jumping out to help Grandma Liang in, Liang Xin had almost mixed the water in the bathtub. Grandma Liang was really embarrassed to ask her two granddaughters to help her take a bath, so she was undressed by Liang Xin and pulled into the bucket.

The two little granddaughters rubbed her back around the bath tub, making her laugh happily. When Liang Xin was looking for soap, she found that Grandma Liang was reluctant to use soap even when she bathed on weekdays. I couldn't do it, so I had to pour some alkaline noodles and help her wipe her body and remove dirt.

After washing and pulling it out of the water to dry her body and get dressed, Grandma Liang said with a smile while buttoning the buttons: "My granddaughter has grown up, and grandma is blessed." As soon as he finished speaking, a large teardrop fell from the corner of his eye.

Liang Yue stood on tiptoe and touched it, not understanding: "What is grandma crying about?" ”

"What is grandma crying about? Grandma is happy! Grandma Liang wiped the wetness from the corners of her eyes, and suddenly heard someone talking outside, so she said again: "Who is here?" I'll take a look. ”

Liang Xin and Liang Yue followed Grandma Liang to the outside of the house, and saw Xu Qinglian with Aunt Wang and Grandma Zhao next to the door. Others heard that the eldest daughter of the Liang family was possessed by evil spirits, and they all followed in groups to watch the excitement. For a while, there were people standing inside and outside Grandma Liang's small fence yard.

"What's wrong? Mrs. Zhao, why are you here? Grandma Liang didn't know why, so she went up and asked.

Grandma Zhao smiled and was about to speak, when she heard Xu Qinglian say: "Mom, don't interfere, I'll find Granny Zhao to show Liang Xin, she should be possessed by evil spirits." You have to drive it early, otherwise how can it be good? ”

Grandma Liang frowned when she heard this, looked at Xu Qinglian and asked, "What evil spirit is my Xin'er possessed?" Isn't this good? ”

"You look good now, didn't you see it before dinner, that's my daughter, it's obviously someone else! If you don't believe it, ask Sister Wang, they all saw it! Xu Qinglian said with a solemn expression.

Grandma Liang looked back at Liang Xin, and Liang Xin hurriedly shook her head. Just now Liang Xin helped herself take a bath, Grandma Liang naturally didn't believe that she was possessed by evil spirits, so she looked at Xu Qinglian again and said: "I don't know how many feudal superstitions have been broken in the early years, but everyone who is foolish is pulled out □□, how can you still believe this?" ”

Lady Zhao was not happy when she heard this, and hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law, you don't like what you say!" In the early years, wasn't that hard pressed from above? Now the country has said that the past ten years have been wrong! How many intellectuals have been harmed in the country, and how many good people have been harmed! At that time, Sensei said feudal superstition, and you have to think twice about what you say! Now that the country has been reformed and opened up, how can there be anything □□ about? What if you mention the events of that time, but are dissatisfied with this world? ”

"What's wrong with me mentioning that time?!" Grandma Liang also came to her heart, and said loudly: "At that time, the people were united! No one dares to throw out my old woman and leave me alone! ”

As soon as these words came out, they scratched Xu Qinglian. Her face changed, and she said, "Mom, you have to touch your conscience to say this, I brought you here, or you want to come by yourself!" I'm still afraid that others will scold me for not being filial, and you have a high spirit, so you have to live alone! It's good now, the basin is buckled on my head, this is a matter of conscience! ”

"Humph!" Grandma Liang snorted coldly: "You don't have a conscience with me, and I will live with you and be angry with you?" In the past, there was no daughter-in-law to speak in front of the mother-in-law! If you don't honor the people in the village, everyone will look at it, and you don't need me to put a basin on your head! ”

Xu Qinglian was so angry that she inhaled, and she was about to quarrel again, but she was pulled by Aunt Wang next to her and persuaded in a low voice: "When will it be noisy?" It's not over! Can't get down to business? ”

Xu Qinglian was quiet for a while, and she also heard gossip around her about her unfilial piety. She swallowed her anger and no longer talked to Grandma Liang, but looked at Liang Xin and said angrily: "Liang Xin, you come out for me!" Let Granny Zhao take a look. ”

Liang Xin held Grandma Liang's hand, hid behind her slightly, looked at Xu Qinglian and said, "Mom, go back, I haven't been ghosted, I know what I'm doing." I want to read, you don't have to force me with this method. ”

Xu Qinglian was so angry that she was about to go up and drag someone, but as soon as she took a step, she was dragged by the arm of a person behind her. She shook off her arm and didn't shake it off, and when she looked back, she saw that it was not her neighbor, but her sister-in-law Liang Yiping.

Grandma Liang has only two children in her life, one is her son Liang Wenchang, that is, Xu Qinglian's husband, who died young. The other is Liang Yiping, who appeared at this moment, married to the production team of the village, and looks beautiful and beautiful, but he has a very pungent temperament and an extremely mean mouth. Xu Qinglian hates her the most, and she is most afraid of running into her.

Sure enough, without waiting for Xu Qinglian to speak, Liang Yiping smiled and said: "Yo, sister-in-law is unwilling to kick my mother out of the house, and she has to come here to make trouble with her old man, it's better not to call her old man!" This is a man, you can't go too far, the big guys are looking at it. You don't do anything about caring for the elderly and respecting the elderly, how can you have the face to enter this broken fence yard! ”

Xu Qinglian looked at the fake smile on her face, her face was blue, she shook her twice and didn't shake her off, and finally said angrily: "Her sister-in-law, don't get involved, I'm not here to find your mother, I'm here to find my daughter!" ”

"I don't care who you come to." Liang Yiping still smiled, the nails of both hands had slowly pinched into Xu Qinglian's arm flesh, and she continued: "Liang Xin is my niece, what's wrong with her wanting to study?" Why don't you let her read it? You don't have money, I have money! You don't provide for her, I provide for her! You're patriarchal, are you still reasonable? Look at who is on the ghost here, you are the only ghost, I watch! ”

Xu Qinglian's arm was pinched by her, and she couldn't stop saying, "You let go of me!" Let go! Seeing that Liang Yiping didn't let go, she was not virtuous, and scolded: "You rotten hen who can't lay eggs, if you have money, you throw it into the river to buy your son, my daughter doesn't want your money!" ”

"The rotten hen that can't lay eggs" can be regarded as poking Liang Yiping's sore spot, the smile on her face disappeared instantly, and she stared at Xu Qinglian with wide eyes: "Who do you say is a rotten hen who can't lay eggs?!" You repeat!!! ”

"Just say it, you say it! Rotten hens that don't lay eggs! Rotten hens! Xu Qinglian screamed.

"My day your ancestor Xu Qinglian!" Liang Yiping didn't mess up anymore, and slapped it.

The people next to him originally came to see the quarrel and watch the excitement, but now they saw that they really started to get started, so they were busy fighting. Every word you say to me, the scene is a mess. Liang Yue hid behind Grandma Liang, she was most afraid that her mother and sister-in-law would run into each other, and she couldn't avoid a big battle every time.

Liang Xin saw that he couldn't mess around anymore and let people see jokes, so he hurriedly rushed out and went to the crowd to break for a while, but he couldn't break it, so he shouted screaming: "Stop!! ”

Xu Qinglian and Liang Yiping, who were tearing their hair and clothes, stopped their hands and looked at Liang Xin. Liang Xin panted, looked at the two and said, "Don't you feel ashamed?" ”

Seeing that the two of them didn't speak, she reached out again and broke their hands apart, separated the two and said, "As the saying goes, you can't show your ugliness, you guys are really invisible." The big guys are watching it, and they're laughing at you when they go back. Lose face! ”

Liang Yiping came back to her senses first, pulled her hair and said, "Xin'er, I'm here for you, you can't talk about your sister-in-law like that." ”

"Thank you, sister-in-law, sincerely." Liang Xin said sincerely, blocked Liang Yiping's mouth, looked at Xu Qinglian again, and said helplessly: "Please don't make any more trouble, my mother!" No matter what you do, I won't change my mind. I'll live with my grandmother from now on, and I'll take care of her. You don't have to worry about the money for studying, I'll figure it out myself. ”

"Then you don't care about the family? Your sister is still so young, who will do the work in the field for me? If you don't go to work in the brick factory, where will you get the money for your eldest brother and second brother to study and eat? Xu Qinglian still didn't give up.

Liang Xin took a breath and said in a loud voice: "You let the eldest brother and second brother go to the brick factory to move bricks by themselves on Sunday, it's a good thing to suffer a little." Since I was a child, I haven't seen anything he or she has done. ”

"You ......" Xu Qinglian glared again: "They are your own brother!" ”

"Don't stare at me anymore, don't yell at me! Please! Liang Xin twisted her eyebrows and said irritably: "I'm still their own sister!" ”

Xu Qinglian couldn't find help, so she set her eyes on Mrs. Zhao. Mrs. Zhao always knew that Liang Yiping was the most difficult to mess with, so she didn't dare to mix at this time, so she only smiled and said: "I see that Xin'er is fine, but I want to study too much." If you don't talk to her anymore, maybe you can figure it out, and you don't want to read it. It's useless for girls to read......"

"Fart!" Liang Yiping took a sip and interrupted Mrs. Zhao's words: "You know a fart if it's useful or not!" ”

Mrs. Zhao was scolded by Liang Yiping, closed her mouth tightly, and didn't dare to speak anymore.
