Chapter 22: Relics
The old woman said that even if he was heartless, after all, he still had his own concerns.
It's not that I, who is a mother-in-law, is talking about my daughter-in-law behind my back, everyone is a family member, I'll tell you the truth, everyone immediately pricked up their ears when they heard his words, even including the girl, and because the old woman said that this room was full of her own people, and secretly happy Xiaolian.
The old woman whispered, the fourth child in their family can be treated equally, but the fourth daughter-in-law is his favorite is this eldest daughter, he put all his hopes on Xiaoying's body, and the children are really completely different from each other, once I saw one thing, it really surprised me.
The mother immediately asked, and the old woman whispered, Fang'er was still young at that time, how old was it, and our family had a very hard time, and then the fourth and fourth daughter-in-law took the two children back to his mother's house.
When they came back, the fourth child took Xiaoying to the house first, his daughter-in-law and Fang'er, the mother and daughter, were still at their parents' house, and the fourth child said that he would live there for a few more days, but after half a day's work, the fourth daughter-in-law came back by herself, saying that she left Hua'er there to play with her uncle's children.
After a few days, seeing that the two of them had no intention of taking the child back, your grandfather asked your fourth uncle to take the child over, but your fourth aunt stopped him and didn't let him go no matter what, saying that he would let the child stay there for a few more days, and the family could save a little rations.
A few days later, the girl's fifth uncle went to the town to buy some things, and saw a very strange woman, holding a girl who had been crying all the time, walking on the road, and the girl and Fang'er looked very similar.
The family was all boys, and then the fifth child overheard the conversation between them on the side, and then he knew that Fang'er was actually sold to that family as a child daughter-in-law.
Hearing this, the mother gasped, and everyone was shocked, they really didn't expect that there would be such a thing.
How can the four brothers and four sisters-in-law be like this, the sister-in-law was the first to say indignantly.
Even if our family has a bad time, and it is not to the point where they want to sell their children, how can they do such a thing to their daughters? Hearing my sister-in-law's words, the girl immediately laughed, sister-in-law, what you said is not entirely correct, such a thing really happened in our family, oh my God, when did it happen? Who are you going to sell, why don't I know? The sister-in-law immediately asked, and all the people in the room looked at the girl in surprise, and the girl glanced at the old woman who was sitting firmly on the bed and listening carefully to what she was saying.
You still remember that my father broke his leg when he was crushed by a car to get medicine for me, and there was no way to continue doing farm work, and my grandparents discussed with my deceased uncle that they wanted to sell me, so that they could also reduce the burden on the family a little, and then the money they got could also be used to buy medicine for my father's doctor.
Hearing this, the sister-in-law immediately widened her eyes in surprise, and her mother immediately remembered what happened at that time, her face was full of sadness, and the old woman's face immediately changed, and she scolded and said, What are you talking nonsense, something that has never happened before, you probably heard it when you were dreaming.
If I'm not mistaken, you were still crazy at that time, how could you know these things? The girl smiled, am I really dreaming? Then you can assume that I am talking nonsense, but I think this dream is very real, and I can still remember all the things that happened at that time.
The old woman's face was unpredictable, but she was silent there, and the girl knew that now the old woman had already remembered what happened at that time, so she felt a little uncomfortable, and the girl also laughed, and did not continue to dwell on this matter, just say it, everyone is not stupid, they all know what this matter is about.
Where did we go just now? The sister-in-law came back to her senses at this time and said that Fang'er had been sold.
The girl immediately asked, what happened to grandma, you continue to talk, the old woman secretly calmed down her mood here, but in her heart she kept muttering, why is this stinky girl's memory so good? It has been many years ago, I still remember it clearly, is this stinky girl no longer crazy at that time? It's just a deliberate look, no matter what the situation is, this girl is really good at holding grudges.
Grandma drank all the rest of the water, and continued, your fifth uncle came back and told everyone, and your grandfather immediately took your eldest uncle and the others there to snatch Fang'er back, and your fourth brother didn't know that your fourth sister-in-law would hide from all the people in the family and make decisions in private with his mother's family, so he sold Fang'er.
Hearing the old woman finish speaking, the sister-in-law immediately said that in this world, her heart is really ruthless, and she can be so ruthless to her daughter, a few days ago Xiaoying returned home to make trouble, and he also said that he didn't want a daughter, I'm afraid she and the fourth sister-in-law have no family affection at all.
What is the old woman's point when she says this, and there are even more surprising things for you, what else is there, mother, you hurry up and say it, the sister-in-law immediately became excited.
The old woman said, since that time Fang'er was found by us, your fourth sister-in-law felt very unpleasant to look at him, but your fourth brother knew what kind of person he was, and he would not give him another chance to sell the child, and when your fourth sister-in-law was pregnant again, she looked for others to say that it was a boy, and when the child was still in the belly, she was already about to fly, and I had already believed his words at that time, and during the period when he was pregnant, he would let him eat a boiled egg every day to replenish his body.
Speaking of those things in the past, the old woman was still very angry, but I didn't expect that she would still be a daughter after giving birth, but this child has already been born, even if I don't like it anymore, what can I do? But I didn't expect that the fourth daughter-in-law is completely different, once I went to his room, at that time Tuan Tuan was born for a few days, she herself can walk around, I saw it with my own eyes, he took Tuan Tuan to the basin of water, and wanted to drown the child.
Hearing this, the sister-in-law screamed in fright, how could there be a person like him as a mother in this world, his heart is too vicious.
Xiao Lian, who had been sitting next to her and was silent, immediately touched her big belly with her hand, and she was already scared enough.
The old woman pursed her lips, don't say that you are scared now, I was already frightened by him at that time, if I hadn't stopped me, this group would have been out of this world a long time ago.
It is said that your fourth sister-in-law, the person he is most afraid of in his life is me, and he has always been obedient in front of me, one reason is because I am his mother-in-law and his elder, and there is another reason, that is, because I know too many of his secrets, if I tell all these things, he will have no way to gain a foothold in this world.
It's really unimaginable, all of them are their own daughters, this brother and sister are so heartfelt to Xiaoying, but they don't care about other children at all.
The old woman said that although they are all their own children, they will be treated a little differently, maybe some children can like it more, and some will be worse, but if they don't like it at all and want to die, it is definitely not what a mother should do, where is it still like a person.
The old lady should have summed up these words based on her own experience, but these words are not bad, because there are many children in the family, and each child's personality is completely different.
After all, all the resources of this family and the energy of parents are still limited, if there are really many children, then it is impossible to achieve a complete bowl of water for every child, maybe some children will be more favored, and some will be a little worse.
But no matter what, after all, it is still his own flesh and blood, even if he doesn't like it, he will be fed and clothed, and it is impossible to ruthlessly want to kill his own child.
It is really rare to sell her daughter as a thing like Aunt Shisi, and let those who don't know the root cause abuse her daughter.
The girl said, if according to what grandma said, the fourth aunt lived in a mess in the first half of her life, and the unsmooth life in the future is also the retribution for what she did before.
What you plant is what you get, the fourth daughter-in-law couldn't lead by example when the child was young, which brought a bad influence to the child, and now she has been retributed, this Xiaoying's character is completely the same as him, or even more serious than him.
The old woman continued, from now on, this Fang'er's personality is not the same as her, Tuan Tuan is still young, and she can't see what her personality is, if these two children are the same as Xiaoying, then I'm afraid that the fourth daughter-in-law will really have no way to live in the future.
The mother said, mother, don't forget that there is Xiaodong, that child has a very honest temperament, I still look very good, but the old woman interrupted her mother's words very angrily.
Don't say it anymore, don't say anything else, just take Xiaodong's mouth as an example, that child will probably be a burden to everyone when he grows up, and the family can only let him support his old age in the future.
Mother, I don't think that's the case, Xiaodong's child still looks very good, and his temperament is honest, and he looks very likable.
Hearing the words of the sister-in-law, the old woman said that even if you are recruiting people, but if you have a daughter in your own family, do you really want to marry your daughter to such a man? The sister-in-law immediately said, how is this possible, even if the son-in-law she found for her daughter is in poor health, just like the man in my family, but you can't find a person with a natural defect, and Xiaodong's face looks very scary.
The old woman pursed her lips and said, isn't that it? You don't like it yourself, are others just stupid, the sister-in-law was speechless for a moment, and then he looked at Xiaolian's big belly and said, Now my fourth sister-in-law is already so old, I'm afraid I won't have any more children in the future, now the fourth brother's house depends on you, I hope you can fight a little bit, give the fourth brother a healthy son, and also make some guarantees for his future.
Xiaolian's face blushed and lowered her head, the old woman said, don't talk about this matter for now, of course you will know when the child is born in a few months, we are discussing Xiaoying's affairs now, and don't mention the rest of the things.
Hearing the old woman's words, of course the sister-in-law didn't dare to refute, here the mother said, mother, I don't think you have to worry, the men have already gone out to find Xiaoying, after all, she is still a girl, and her feet will not be so fast, she will definitely be able to find him, the old woman's face showed a very strange smile, I won't worry about her, this Xiaoying's temperament has always been very eccentric, no matter who she goes to, it is a great disaster for them.
But of course, I also hope to be able to find him, after all, he is still the biological daughter of the fourth child, and seeing her sad, I, who is a mother, am also very uncomfortable in my heart, so I should hurry up and find it back, so that everyone can rest assured.
None of them said anything, everyone said that they were next generation, but when they got to the old woman, it didn't work at all.
Just like what the old woman herself just said, this hand is stretched out, and the length of the fingers is different, and there are many children in the family, which of course has very little to share the feelings of the younger generation.
Compared with such an old man, the girl suddenly thought of her grandmother, who has always been a kind old man, no matter what good things are at home, she will leave them for herself, and her grandmother's eyes are full of pampering, and when the weather changes, she will worry about whether these children will pay attention to adding clothes.
