Chapter Seventy-Five: Mu Zhongqing is back
After watching the play, Du Shi planned to take the children home, she had been away from home for a short time, and she didn't know what Wei'er was busy with at home, so she went back earlier, maybe she could help her.
was walking, and suddenly heard a surprise cry in front of me: "Oh, Xiucai's family, is it you?" ”
Du Shi stopped, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Mu San's sister-in-law carrying a basket and picking bottles with her daughter, standing not far from her, and her husband Mu Laosan, also carrying a big flower basket, was also standing with them.
"Third Brother Mu, you ...... It's back.... ”
As soon as he saw Mu Laosan, Du Shi couldn't believe his eyes, and his eyes were red with excitement, as if he had seen his man come back.
"Well, I'm back, I came back last night, Zhong Qing came back with me......"
Third Brother Mu knew what Du Shi cared about, and said her thoughts with a smile.
"Hmm......" Hearing that her husband had also arrived home safely, Du Shi couldn't help but shed tears, and the negative feelings such as anxiety, worry, and fear for most of the year were all dissipated: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back, and finally come back......"
Mu San's sister-in-law said more because her husband came back, and there were more people talking about happy events, and she joked with a smile: "Oh, look, I haven't seen you for a few days, and the second brother and sister are getting more and more handsome...... Huh? Why are you crying, what is this saying? Could it be that Zhongqing is back, don't you like it? ”
Du Shi lowered his head and only cared about wiping his tears, but his tears were like beads with broken threads, and he couldn't finish wiping them, and the grievances he had received during this time were vented out in one go.
If a man does not return for a long time and has no information, it is inevitable that a woman will think crankily, wondering if he is sick? Was it robbed? Do you have a new love?
In short, all kinds of misfortunes played out in her mind every day, torturing her to the point that her heart rate was haggard, she could not sleep well, and she could not complain to the children, lest they also get angry......
Once this painful and tormenting taste is lifted, the feeling of relief can be experienced by no one else...
Mu Laosan pushed his wife, corrected his wife and said: "Don't say it, I heard Brother Zhongqing say that the kind of crying of younger brothers and sisters is called 'crying with joy', do you understand?" ”
Sister-in-law Mu gave him a blank look, and said angrily: "He Xiucai went out for a trip, but he learned to chew words and chew words, what is crying with joy, isn't it just crying......"
The husband and wife were talking sweetly, Cai Fei stepped forward and interrupted them, "Does the third uncle know where my father is now?" Why didn't you come with you to the town to find us? ”
Mu Laosan sighed and said: "Zhongqing was taken to the county seat early in the morning, and yesterday morning someone from the county government came, and your old man was also arrested, saying that he was an accomplice to the murder of the horse, and he couldn't be forgiven, as soon as your father came back last night, he was made a big fuss by your grandmother, no, early in the morning, before dawn, your grandmother rushed to the county seat to find a way.... ”
"Sister Phil'......"
Cai Lian, who had been standing silently, suddenly opened her mouth and called Cai Fei, looking enviously at Cai Fei's silk and satin dress, the large floor-length cloak with raw edges, the pearl flower inlaid with gold earrings on her ears, and the ruby ring on her hand......
"You look so good in this!"
Cai Lian has only seen these costumes in the paintings, but she didn't expect Sister Fei'er to be able to wear them, she is really blessed!
Cai Fei was very sensible, pretending not to see the envy in her eyes, and said with a smile: "Sister Cai Lian is good-looking, she doesn't have to wear such clothes to look good, how can she be like me, if you don't dress up, you won't be able to see people ugly!" ”
Mu Laosan saw that his baby daughter showed an envious look on Cai Fei's clothes, and he was so distressed that he clenched his fists, he also wanted to buy a good-looking clothes for the child to wear, but unfortunately there were only a few copper plates left in his purse, not to mention that this silk and satin clothes were a handkerchief of muslin, and I was afraid that I couldn't afford it.
went out on a trip, hoping to earn some money and come back, so that the family's life was loose, but unfortunately encountered a storm on the boat, and all the goods of the two fell into the water, and the people almost died.
In the past few months, he and Zhongqing brothers, one wrote letters and sold words for people at the gate of the temple for a living, and the other helped people to work at the dock to earn money, and they saved for several months before they saved up the coil to go home, on the way home, in order to save money, the two of them only ate one meal a day, rarely took a car along the way, and basically walked back with a pair of feet.
Aunt Mu San knew her husband's difficulties, and she also felt sorry for her daughter, so she hurriedly said: "When we sell these little fungus and mushrooms, we will also go to the cloth village to have a look, if there is a cheap one, I will also pull a piece of flower cloth back for Lian'er and make new clothes to wear." ”
Seeing that Mu Laosan and his wife had no money to buy new clothes for their daughter, Du Shi understood that Mu Laosan did not make any money when he went out on this trip, and his husband did business with him, so naturally he did not make money, but as long as people can come back safely, it doesn't matter whether they make money or not, besides, the family business is prosperous, and he doesn't care about the money he earns, and the family can live together safely, which is better than anything else.
"It just so happens that I still have some materials here, so it's better to cut a new dress for Sister Lian, it's the New Year, and the child will be happy when she wears it." Du Shi said loudly.
When Mu Laosan and his wife heard this, they hurriedly excused themselves: "How can this be done?" There are many children in the younger siblings' family, so it's better to keep them for their own children. ”
Du Shi smiled: "They all have it, this one is a gift from my aunt to my niece and nephew, and the third brother and third sister-in-law should stop refusing it." ”
After speaking, he ordered Aunt Zhang to bring the remaining materials of the two satins and let Cailian pick them by herself.
Cai Lian walked over cautiously, her eyes wide open and she looked at the colorful brocade in front of her, and her heart was about to jump out.
She had never seen such a beautiful thing, in her cognition, muslin clothes were already the best, this kind of silk and satin clothes, something she never dared to imagine in her life, too far away from her life.
Gently rubbing these smooth satin, she was nervous, lest her hands be dirty and stain the satin, and she was afraid that her hands would be rough and scratch the satin...... ()
