Sixty-Eight: Relatives (1)
Originally, Lin Yan's mood was not high, but at this time, under the background of the atmosphere, he gradually started to laugh, and listening to Uncle Wang's words, he also listened to it with relish.
Almost half of the food on the table was down, and the food brought by Lin Xiang was only a small empty half of juice.
Sister-in-law Wang stir-fried the meat slices, and the shredded meat was almost eaten at the moment, and there was not much steamed bread left on the table.
Just when a few people were laughing, suddenly there was a knock on the door of the room.
Originally, a few people didn't care much, thinking that it was a hallucination such as a mistake, who knew that the knock on the door was not reduced but louder, and the sound frequency became faster and faster, so the person who knew that the knocker seemed a little impatient.
"Bang bang-" followed by a loud banging on the door, followed by a roar of impatience
"Open the door, open the door!!"
First Lin Xiang heard it, thinking that he had heard it wrong, but who knew that the sound continued, and then Lin Yan also noticed it.
After reminding Sister-in-law Wang, she saw Sister-in-law Wang's face surprised, "Who came to the house at this time?" Getting up, Sister-in-law Wang wiped her hands casually at the hem of her clothes, and then went to open the door.
Lin Xiang and Lin Yan didn't think much about it, so they continued to eat again, who knew that not long after Sister-in-law Lin got up, there was a shout over there-
"Daddy, come on, sister-in-law is here—"
In an instant, Lin Yan and Lin Xiang saw that the faces of the two tigers on the opposite side, who were originally smiling, were wrinkled, and they were already sad.
"Dad-" Just looking at the appearance of the big tiger and the second tiger, Uncle Wang was originally a little dizzy from drinking, but he also instantly sobered up at this moment.
When I got up, I saw that Uncle Wang's face instantly brought a bit of seriousness.
The lively chatter and laughter at the dinner table no longer existed, and the lively atmosphere was instantly reduced.
Lin Xiang and Lin Yan looked at the scene in front of them a little bewildered.
Not long after Uncle Wang walked out quickly, the big tiger and the two tigers chattered a lot.
Lin Xiang and Lin Yan were still surprised, and there was a noisy noise at the door of the house.
"I'm not talking about you, don't you want it? If you don't go back for so long, you really want to be unfilial! A female voice walked into the house with a rude scolding voice.
As soon as Lin Xiang turned his face, he saw a fat woman wearing a big red cotton jacket and cotton pants, her clothes were washed and some gray, her hair was extremely messy because she had been outside for a long time, her face was black, her complexion was yellow and black and chapped, and she was about thirty years old...... Forty...... Around the age of a little girl about seven or eight years old.
As soon as the fat woman entered the room, she saw the bright dining table, and her scolding mouth stopped in an instant, her voice weakened, and the noisy room suddenly became quiet.
"For the New Year, I said why don't you go back, it's a delicious place to eat!" The fat woman dressed in red saw Lin Xiang and Lin Yan's food in a huff, her eyes lit up, she pulled the girl who was a little dirty in her hand, and scolded: "Go and go, I can't starve you to death, I didn't shout and scream for food along the way, go and eat, your uncle's family doesn't have a lot of food!" ”
Hearing this, Sister-in-law Wang's face changed in an instant, and Uncle Wang stood aside without speaking, hanging his head slightly.
"Go--your uncle's house, what are you polite!" The fat woman's thick fingers struck the skinny girl's back hard, and the girl tripped under her feet, and then took a few steps forward.
The big tiger and the second tiger stared at the girl in the rag thin cotton clothes with stunned eyes, and walked timidly to the dining table while eating their fingers.
Sister-in-law Wang had a smile on her face, but the fingers under the sleeves were pinched tighter and tighter.
Seeing this, Lin Xiang glanced at Lin Yan.
After a few moments, the siblings stood up.
"If it's okay, it's not too early today, my brother and I will go back first-" Lin Xiang broke the awkward quiet room and said with a smile.
Lin Yan stood up.
Seeing this, Sister-in-law Wang hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Don't don't, it's still early for the New Year, what are you and your brother going back for?" ”
Lin Xiang was about to talk, but the fat woman in red over there said noisily: "Oh, who is this?" I haven't seen it for a long time, I don't know that my younger siblings' family is so rich, but there are a lot of idlers, whose children are here to eat? Why haven't I seen it, I don't know filial piety and filial piety to our mother when I have money, I know that I eat and drink outside, I don't know that my mother is about to fall ill? The food in the village is almost out of food, look at your niece and nephew, what has become of the hungry and thin? What the hell......"
Lin Xiang's face suddenly became a little unbearable, and he laughed awkwardly-
Sister-in-law Wang stepped forward and shouted: "Sister-in-law, don't say that, how did my family come out of the village in the first place, you are also ruthless, we don't know if our family has food, but I know who the house at the head of the village is......"
"Oh, sister, you really hold a grudge, alas, isn't that all in the past?" The fat woman changed her smile in an instant when she heard this, and she didn't mention Lin Xiang's words anymore, she stepped forward a few steps, swept the food on the table with big eyes, and clicked her mouth twice, "Oh, so much delicious, daughter, alas, aren't you already yelling that you're hungry?" Sit down and eat—"
Anyway, without waiting for Wang's sister-in-law Uncle Wang to let her, the fat woman here carried a stool from one side, and sat at the dining table, still holding her own daughter in her hand, and she didn't know how to wash the black black fingers, grabbed the mixed noodles steamed buns on the plate on the table and sent them to her mouth-
Sister-in-law Wang frowned, and her heart became more and more disgusting.
Uncle Wang stood silently on one side and did not speak.
Sister-in-law Wang secretly sighed in her heart about the fat woman's attitude, she drove their family out of the village back then, and now she still has the face to eat at home?
The big tiger and the second tiger were ignorant, and they also stood up with Lin Xiang and Lin Yan.
"Snorr
"Eat, eat—" The fat woman was generous, took two steamed buns for her daughter, and stuffed them into her hand, while putting vegetables in the bowl.
Probably the girl couldn't help it when she saw it, so she took a bite and began to chew it with gusto, and there was a layer of rice stains on the outside of her mouth.
Lin Xiang couldn't bear to look at it directly.
The mother and daughter are just like Hanako, who has not eaten a full meal for many years, there is nothing on the table, and the sound of "sighing and snoring" is all over the sky-
Sister-in-law Wang was disgusted, and she had to put a trace of face on her face, and smiled at Lin Xiang: "Don't mind the two of you, they are our relatives, you ......"
"What does she mind when she eats and drinks? Not paying...... You don't have to work, every day...... The food is better than our mother in the village...... Look at this delicate one, go and get me two more steamed buns......" As soon as the woman over there heard this, she opened her mouth and shouted, slapping her palms on the dining table, "popping" sound!
