Chapter Seventy-Nine: Bad Heart
86_86276The family gathering was almost over after Zhao Mingyou left beforehand, Zhao Lan, Zhao Qing and Zhao Hua packed the leftovers on the table separately, and packed the food into the basin to feed the cats and dogs raised at home.
When they cleaned up and the time was almost up, Zhao Qing and Zhao Hua were not in a hurry to leave if they had other things, and they were worried that Zhao Lan at home went to the south to find Xia Ruo to go home.
The gifts he took when he didn't come, Xia Ruo put his hands in his pockets and followed Zhao Lan back. After all, this is the village where Zhao Lan has lived for twenty years, and even if she chooses a road with few people, there are many people who greet her. People who haven't seen for a long time, Xia Ruo didn't have much impression anymore, so he had to smile and call people in Zhao Lan's introduction, and then get a bunch of compliments from them. It's the New Year, everyone is happy, and they are all auspicious.
After more than half an hour, the two returned to the village, afraid that Xia Ming would be greedy because he was at home, Zhao Lan bought two sugarcanes from the small shop at the corner of the street, and happened to meet Xia Ping Xia An, who was running and playing on the street, and gave them another one.
Xia Ruo's family has many relatives, but it is relatively concentrated, Zhao Lan's mother's house is gone, and the rest is Zhang Zhuang's uncle's house and Lou Zhuang's sister's house in the south of Xia Yu's house.
This is not in a hurry, there are still relatives around fifteen, and this year, Xia Yu and several children can stay until after fifteen, Zhao Lan will take care of Xia Mingming at home, but others are not as comfortable as her.
Yang Qinqin has always moved to her mother's house with any good things at home, otherwise she would not be separated from two concubines because of a wheat threshing machine, but in previous years, she was very enthusiastic when she went home at home, and this year I don't know what's wrong, my mother's brother went out to work and came back shaking like something, didn't he make a little money, enough to buy a wheat threshing machine, and the family revolved around him.
In the final analysis, Yang Qinqin just needs to have a sense of zĂ i, so she has been taking things from her mother's house, has been pressing Fang Fang and Zhao Lan, and has been managing her husband to the point of being afraid of herself, and now, the mother's family she has been maintaining doesn't care about her anymore, and she is very disappointed and angry, what did she do before.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, when I came back from my mother's house, I didn't like anyone, and the people who came to her house to go to relatives didn't look good in their hearts. But she didn't know it yet, and she was very happy that she could save trouble.
Xia Ping and Xia An just didn't want to be scolded by her all day long, and ran outside as soon as they put down the bowl after eating, not to mention the New Year, usually Yang Qinqin didn't care much, just let them play. Their father didn't have such a good treatment, washed the dishes and brushed the pot, and saw that his daughter-in-law hadn't gone out to play cards yet, so he sat at the door and smoked.
Looking at his appearance, Yang Qinqin's heart was completely aroused, she was strong in everything, why now that she has two sons, but everything has been compared, she grabbed two handfuls of melon seeds from the table and put them in her pocket, and went to Zhao Lan's house casually, Xia Yu happened to be at home, and when he went out after fifteen, he had to give it to his brother, otherwise, let Zhao Lan's younger brother find a job in the county, people and brothers pay attention to watching and helping each other, why is it so difficult for them to find a job, and it is not that they don't work for money, Who is not used for work?
Xia Mingming's body couldn't see anything wrong, but Zhao Lan still listened to the doctor's words and asked her to take medicine, and she was afraid that something would happen to this child if she couldn't watch it, so she simply locked her up at home, eating whatever she wanted, playing whatever she wanted, watching TV and watching TV, as long as she was at home.
Xia Mingming was very beautiful, the meals were delivered to her hands, and she didn't have to work, but she couldn't sit still after two days, she wanted to go out to play, but her father, who had always been gentle, didn't listen to her, not to mention that now her two sisters were more and more disobedient, so she could only pout and eat at home, and her face was round after a year.
During the Chinese New Year, everyone was busy visiting relatives, and few people went out to visit the door, but Yang Qinqin didn't care about this, and sat in the living room of the hall when she entered the door.
"Heavy rain, how many times have I told Zhao Lan, this house has to be cleaned up, otherwise what will happen to the guests?" On the ground, Xia Ruo had not swept the melon seed skin they ate while watching TV, Yang Qinqin saw it and said, seeing that Xia Yu just smiled and didn't speak, and continued: "After fifteen, you should leave, or go to the original place?" â
originally thought that the third child of the Xia family was a poor soldier, but he knew that there was a soldier before demobilization and reemployment, and he suddenly became a person with an iron rice bowl, and threw him a few brothers who were shaving food from the field a few streets, or how to say it, people are fate, Yang Qinqin felt sorry for herself for a while and began today's topic: "I heard that you are working in the mountains, and I don't know if you are tired?" â
"How can you not be tired from work, but we are all used to it, sister-in-law, do you have something?" I haven't heard Yang Qinqin care about work for many years, Xia Yu is not used to listening to it, and she doesn't go around the bend with her, so she asks directly.
"What's the matter, it's not your brother, there is nothing at home after the New Year, I want him to go out with you to make some money, in another two years, Xia Ping Xia An will not be allowed to go to high school in the city, the family house should be built, working in the field is not able to save so much money in a lifetime, you said you don't help your brother, how can we ......live" Yang Qinqin will cry poor the most, she said this, even she felt that she was poor, and tears flowed out.
Xia Yu had a headache, his daughter-in-law Zhao Lan talked to him about this, it's not that he doesn't help, it's really that Yang Qinqin is too good at calling people, if you are a package, don't think about getting rid of the relationship in the future, you can't be tired and light, otherwise how can you convince the public, and besides, your eldest brother is a good way to work, no matter how honest he is, can he go to the construction site? But you can't say this to your sister-in-law clearly, otherwise you think you won't help your brother.
Otherwise, how to say that human affection is the most complicated thing in the world, and this thing can't be done well, but now that Zhao Lan is not at home, and he is clumsy in his tongue, how can he refuse? "Sister-in-law, it's hard and tiring on the construction site, big brother ......"
Yang Qinqin slapped her leg and stood up: "Your eldest brother can also eat the hardships you can eat, don't worry, he won't discredit you, it's so decided, I'll go back and pack your eldest brother's luggage, just let me know when you leave." With that, she took care of herself and left.
Xia Yu was stunned Yang Qinqin had already gone away, Xia Yu smiled bitterly, and when he turned around, his daughter-in-law should talk to himself again, he didn't want his relatives and friends to enter the construction site, but he couldn't open his mouth to refuse his relatives, because he was a person living in this environment, if he refused, he didn't know what kind of wolf-hearted reputation he would end.
Looking back, Zhao Lan knew, Xia Yu really got a count, but she knew that her husband was not to blame, and Zhao Lan couldn't do anything.
Xia Ruo, who was peeling peanuts and eating them on the side, came up with an idea on the side: "The eldest mother said that the uncle is not afraid of hardship, so it is as good as everyone else, so that everyone will not say anything." â
Xia Yu and Zhao Lan glanced at each other, and said so, it's like this if it doesn't work, try it.
She should have refused ruthlessly in the first place, even if she had a bad reputation.
Just after the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhang Sang'e's concubine Zhao Fuli took her husband to her house to live, and the eldest daughter went back to her parents' house and wanted to live for two days without a place. But he still said that he couldn't scold, so he could only hide outside every day, and he couldn't go back to his own home to get tangled, but Zhao Fuli at home was like his master, cooking, eating, watching TV and sleeping, regardless of Zhang Sang'e's stiff face
