Chapter 1 A Scattered Family
The Li family is finished. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
When the people of Qinghe Village chattered, they all said the same.
At the beginning of summer this year, when Li Hua'er, the eldest daughter of the Li family, took her younger brother Jinbao to wash clothes by the Qingshui River, she happened to bump into the eldest young master of the Tao family.
The eldest young master of the Tao family was originally going to fish, but at that time, Jinbao was also sitting by the river, which happened to block the way of the eldest young master of the Tao family.
The eldest young master of the Tao family was just scolded by his father that day, and he was in a bad mood, looking at Jinbao sitting by the river, he scolded: "What a rammer, dare to be the way of this young master!" ”
With that, he kicked Jinbao.
Jinbao is only a little more than three years old, where does he understand what is going on? Immediately he sat there and began to cry.
Seeing this, Li Hua'er hurriedly got up and was about to go over, but as soon as she got up, she saw the little guy next to Master Tao, and she seemed to come over and kick Jinbao as if she was pleased.
This kick was a bit ruthless, and it actually kicked Jinbao directly into the water.
When many of the women washing clothes by the river saw this, they were like frying the pan.
Li Hua'er sighed, and after pushing Young Master Tao, she turned around and jumped into the water, wanting to fish for gold treasures.
But the Qingshui River is turbulent, where can I get it? Even Li Hua'er was easily caught by the people in the village who knew how to fish water.
And Jinbao, even a corpse, doesn't know where it was washed away.
The old man Li and Mrs. Li of the Li family only had one son and one daughter in their lives, and the only son, Li Da, only got Jinbao's son, and this son was gone.
And Li Hua'er, who was fished up, was stupid, just lying there every day, and couldn't even speak.
Now that Li Da has been conscripted into hard labor, there has been no news for three years, Old Man Li and Mrs. Li are guarding their daughter-in-law, two granddaughters and a little grandson, and the family is old and weak.
Mrs. Li was a spicy person, and she was clamoring to go to the county government at that time.
But the lobbyist from the Tao family said: "The old sister-in-law of the Li family, you also want to know about it, the head of the county government is related to the Tao family, you just go, as soon as you go in, you will fight twenty kills first, and you will still lose the lawsuit at that time, so it's better to leave it at that." ”
After that, he threw a tael of silver on the kang.
The silver rolled dripping on the kang, rolled to the side of Li Hua'er, who couldn't move, and stopped.
This is the life of the grandson of the Li family.
Mrs. Li held her breath in her heart, and after crying and scolding all night, when the sky was just dawning, she shouted for a lifetime and died.
And Old Man Li saw that his wife was angry, and he had been in his pocket for a day, and when it was night, he was also dead.
Zhang's weak female flow, her temperament is very soft, and now, her husband is missing, her son is dead, her daughter is sick, and her in-laws have also died one after another.
At this time, the doctor who came to see Li Huaer said: "She was frightened by the water ghost, just bask in the sun more." ”
After saying this, he didn't even prescribe a prescription, so he asked for silver.
At this time, the Zhang family had already lost their owners, and they knew that the doctor was not easy to mess with, so they really gave the one or two pieces of silver given by the Tao family - at this time, because of the funeral of his in-laws, it was already less than one or two - to the doctor.
Who knew that the doctor was still insufficient, blocked the door and refused to leave, and said some meat words in his mouth.
Zhang had no choice but to give a silver-plated hairpin to the quack doctor, and thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you, doctor, thank you." ”
The quack doctor was still insufficient, and his eyes only glanced at Zhang's body, and it was because of the mourning person who came at this time that he thought: "How much is this silver-plated broken hairpin worth?" Enough wine and meat? Anyway, only when I am the living of the world. ”
With that, he left in pieces.
It was easy to send away the quack doctors, and Zhang's left and right clumsily finished the funeral of his in-laws, and it was easy to breathe a sigh of relief, who knew that it had just entered the autumn and something happened again.
The fifth room of the Li family -- is the daughter-in-law of the third son of the fifth brother of the old man Li, surnamed Chai, and everyone calls him the third daughter-in-law, and the theory is that the Zhang family wants to call the third brother and sister, and Li Hua'er and Li Guo'er want to call the third aunt -- they have to argue that when Li Da is at home, he owes her family money, and when he takes a paper slip, he wants to come to grab something.
Zhang's can't read, and he can't make a fuss as Li Xiaosan's daughter-in-law.
Seeing that the three aunts and their two sons entered the house with a white face in a hurry, they took the things they saw, and while taking them, they were still reading in their mouths: "Do you owe our family money, so forget it?" ”
Zhang wanted to come over and stop him, and said soft words in his mouth: "Her third aunt, it is really difficult for the family to come back now, and she can come back to Dalang ......"
Before Zhang finished speaking, Chai spat on Zhang's face, pointed his finger at the bridge of Zhang's nose and scolded: "Phew! Your dead ghost husband has already gone to Nahe Bridge to marry a ghost wife, and he will come back! ”
Zhang's already had a crying voice, but she was soft, where would she quarrel with others, but she just kept saying: "No, Da Lang will come back......." ”
At this moment, Chai's eldest son, Li Zhuzi, who is thirteen years old this year and the same age as Li Hua'er, had already arrived at the kang and saw that the mattress under Li Hua'er, although old and patched, was first-class and clean.
He liked it very much in his heart, you know, he, the eldest aunt of the long house, did a good job, much better than his mother, so he immediately said to his younger brother, ten-year-old Li Mutou: "Take this mattress." ”
Seeing this, Chai Shi hurriedly said: "And the quilt, take it together." ”
Li Zhuzi and Li Mutou were afraid that Li Hua'er was in the way, so they dragged her to the ground.
Poor Li Hua'er can't move yet, so she can only be at the mercy of others.
Where can the Zhang family still take care of things, he hurriedly threw himself on the ground, picked up Li Hua'er and cried: "Hua'er! Flowers, you're all right! ”
Li Guoer, who had long been scared silly, shrank beside her mother and forgot to cry.
Where does Chai care about this, he reached out and picked up a broken teapot on the table, and said: "These are just enough capital, and the interest is insufficient!" ”
Then, scolding, he went out with his two sons.
Only the Zhang family was left holding Li Hua'er and Li Guo'er, looking at this messy home, wanting to cry without tears.
Relying on sewing and washing people, Zhang's easily survived the winter, but when the spring entered the next year, something happened again.
This time, it was Zhang's maiden family who came, and he was going to bring Zhang's back to marry again.
Zhang refused.
Zhang's eldest brother said: "We gave the Li family two silver taels, and they asked us to take you back, if you don't leave now, do you have to wait for them to sell you?" Dad has already found a good household for you again, go back with me! ”
Zhang still refused, but was slapped twice in the face by his eldest brother, and as soon as the rope was locked, he was about to be dragged back.
Zhang cried and begged: "Big brother, let me take my two children with you." ”
The eldest brother Zhang said angrily: "The Li family loses money, and the Li family raises it, what does it have to do with you!" ”
Li Guoer chased her mother and ran all the way to the next village, her shoes ran away, but she still didn't recover Zhang's in the end.
By the time Li Guo'er got home, it was already night.
Looking at the home with four walls and her sister lying on the bed, Li Guoer fell aggrievedly at Li Huaer's voice and cried.
I don't know how long she cried, Li Guoer suddenly felt that someone was touching her hair.
Li Guo'er was startled and raised her head, but saw her sister Li Hua'er raising her hand with difficulty and touching her hair.
Seeing Li Guo'er looking at herself, Li Hua'er tried hard to pull the corners of her mouth, revealing a stiff smile:
"Guo'er, don't cry."
The stiff voice, listening to Li Guoer's ears, was warm.
Li Guoer was stunned for a while, and with a "wow", she cried even more.
