Chapter Twenty-Three: Someone Comes on a Snowy Day
Just when Miao was worried about what excuse to use to pinch the flowers and not attract the attention of Aunt Liu, a heavy snow helped her solve the problem, Liujia Village is located in the south of the Yangtze River, even if there is snow in winter, it only falls at night, basically it can't accumulate, like this year's heavy snow, not only accumulates a thick layer, but it is rare to get up in the morning. www.biquge.info So when I got up the next morning, I heard Aunt Liu sigh happily: "I haven't seen such a heavy snow for several years, it looks like I can have a good harvest this year, but I don't know if the vegetables in the field have been crushed." ”
Ah Miao was suddenly overjoyed, thinking that when the snow was smaller, he secretly ran to pinch the flowers and said that it was not just right that he was pressed by the snow, so he was happy all day long, and even Liu Zhengwen teased her that he was not annoyed, and called 'Fourth Brother' with a smile, and took the little fat man to play the game of picking sticks with great interest.
In the previous life, the children in the countryside did not have so many toys as the children in the city, and they wanted to play with local materials, and the materials that need to be prepared to pick the stick are particularly simple, as long as a thin bamboo stick is on the line, it doesn't matter if there is no thin bamboo stick here, A Miao has already aimed at the fine bamboo stick left behind after burning incense at home, and the farmer family will use up a lot of incense during the New Year, such as the small year of the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month, the king of the pick-up stove, etc., can be seen everywhere, inserted in the kitchen, the main hall, The front of the door has not been cleaned up by Aunt Liu, and when Aunt Liu agrees, Ah Miao took the little fat man to search everywhere, but after a while, he found a large handful.
The rules of the game are also very simple, throw a thin bamboo stick, each person takes one first, and picks up the bamboo sticks on the ground one by one with the bamboo sticks held in his hand without shaking other sticks, and finally whoever has more bamboo sticks in his hand wins. At first, Ah Miao just wanted to find something to make the little fat man have something to do, don't keep pestering herself, but she didn't expect that after really playing, she was even more happy than the little fat man, and even attracted Liu Zhengwen, who was bored because he couldn't go out to play, and finally even Liu Zhengxing joined the battle, Liu Xiucai, Liu Jizong, Aunt Liu, and Sister-in-law Liu watched the battle while gossiping melon seeds.
When the family is having fun, someone might as well call the door, Aunt Liu is wondering why there are still people coming on such a cold day, and after going back to the house and wrapping a thick cotton jacket, she opened the door only to find that the people who came were Uncle Yao and Yao Dahai.
"Big brother, why are you ......" Seeing Yao's uncle Yao Dahai coming over in a heavy snowstorm, Aunt Liu was particularly surprised.
Hearing Aunt Liu's question, Uncle Yao didn't say anything, and walked into the house with his head bored, and Yao Dahai, who followed behind, had to look up and answer Aunt Liu: "Auntie...... Something happened at home...... I ......".
As soon as Yao Dahai raised his head, Aunt Liu was taken aback, "Dahai, what's the matter with you?" I saw that he had several blood marks on his face and neck, one of which was next to his eyes, almost hurt his eyes, and it seemed that he was not wearing much clothes, and Aunt Liu didn't dare to delay and ask more, so she took Yao Dahai home.
When I entered the house, it was warm, Aunt Liu saw Uncle Yao, the blood on his face was much worse than Yao Dahai, Uncle Yao didn't speak, no one dared to ask anything, they could only look at each other, or Liu Xiucai coughed, and asked Aunt Liu to pack up Liu Jizong and Liu Zhengxing's padded jackets each, looking at Uncle Yao and Yao Dahai's appearance, only wearing a thin jacket, lips were frozen purple, after entering the house for so long, it has not eased up, the wet and cold weather is cold and hot is the most prone to typhoid fever, don't freeze your body.
Aunt Liu and Sister-in-law Liu went back to the house to find a padded jacket, Liu Jizong asked Uncle Yao to sit next to the stove with Yao Dahai, and Miao also stuffed his hand stove to Yao Dahai: "Big cousin, warm your hands." ”
Yao Dahai was about to excuse himself, but Liu Jizong spoke: "Come on, cover your hands warmly, in case you get chilblains, it will be troublesome, and it will affect your writing when the time comes." ”
Yao Dahai listened and struggled for a while before taking over the stove.
"Old man, I've made you see the joke." Uncle Yao opened his mouth and said the first sentence after entering the door, which was said to Liu Xiucai.
"It's all their own relatives, what kind of jokes are not jokes, look at the appearance of the two of you, is this her sister-in-law making trouble again?" For Uncle Yao's family, Liu Xiucai is clear, Uncle Yao wants to let the family have a reader, Yao Dahai himself is willing to learn, but his talent is not high, more than thirty people are still a child, even Xiucai was not admitted, for her son's study, Aunt Yao was very active at first, but this year has passed without a result, Aunt Yao has long been blocked in her heart, a few days ago because of a few words with Aunt Yao, she was ridiculed by Aunt Yao, and she made a fuss after returning home.
Uncle Yao thought that she was just making trouble as before, so the two of them also shrank their necks and made trouble by her, usually Aunt Yao saw that the two did not respond, and it would be fine after the anger subsided, but this time I don't know why the trouble was particularly fierce, and I didn't say anything for two days in a row, and I tossed my daughter-in-law hard, even if the grandson pretended to be stupid and begged for mercy next to him, it was useless.
In fact, if you want Ah Miao to say, Yao Dahai might as well give up and find an individual livelihood, so as not to let his wife and children be angry with the old lady, he shrunk his neck and sent his daughter-in-law to the old lady's behavior Ah Miao really looks down on it, but Ah Miao is not an ancient person after all, and he doesn't know about the fanaticism of readers, you must know that there are things like Fan Jinzhong in ancient times, which is completely incomprehensible in Ah Miao's opinion.
Having said that, Uncle Yao saw that Uncle Yao's mother was not a way to make trouble like this, Yao Dahai also felt sorry for his daughter-in-law in front of his mother, so he got up early in the morning and sent his daughter-in-law and the child back to her parents' house. The daughter-in-law and grandson were secretly sent away by their son, this is to fight with themselves, so the anger that Yao's aunt had just calmed down exploded with a 'bang', this time it was not a scolding and tossing, she tore Yao Dahai's book with her hands!
Uncle Yao also knew about Aunt Yao's hard work, so at the beginning, when Aunt Yao was angry and scolded, he didn't say a word, she could do whatever she wanted, but she didn't expect Aunt Yao to move her hand on Yao Dahai's book, this time Uncle Yao was on fire, and he didn't understand Aunt Yao's difficulty, so he pulled Aunt Yao's hand and didn't let her touch Yao Dahai's book again, but what he never expected was that as a man, he was not Uncle Yao's opponent, and the evidence was the blood bar on Uncle Yao's face.
After Yao Dahai sent his daughter-in-law and son, he was worried about the old lady at home, so he rushed home non-stop, and also harvested three or four blood strips, one of which almost hurt his eyes.
