At noon in Takene Castle, the sky was blue-gray. Although it has entered autumn, the sun is still hot at noon, roasting the ground hot, and a gust www.biquge.info of south wind blows, rolling up a heat wave. Only the autumn cicada still felt that it was not hot enough, and shouted "It's cold" from the tree at the gate...... It's cold......" The voice was low and slow, as if to tell the villagers of the farmhouse compound that "it has arrived...... It's ...... Autumn has arrived. ”

At this time, he left his old mother and came to the yard alone, not knowing that the old man was angry for his departure, let alone knowing that later, he actually contacted the murder of his sister-in-law Yang Xiaoye. When you hear someone talking outside the gate, go out of the gate and take a look.

It turned out that the villagers were having lunch, the local customs were different from other places, they were not in their own homes, the family ate around the dining table, and one by one came to the gate of the catkins Feiyang's house, it may also be the place where they often gather, as if agreed, as long as it was time to eat, they gathered here and sprayed blindly.

Because, outside the gate of her house, there is a big elm tree, and there is a persimmon tree, which is lush and very cool. Therefore, as long as it is time to eat, the villagers hold the steamed bun in one hand and the soup in the other, squatting under the shade of the big tree to eat and enjoy the coolness.

He looked up and saw that under the shade of the trees at this time, a large number of people had gathered, and while everyone was eating lunch, they were talking and laughing nonsense, and what they sprayed was all local clichés.

At this time, a young man was holding a soup bowl, and when he saw a strange man coming out of the catkins Feiyang house, he felt strange and asked; "Have you eaten?"

He looked up, but ignored it because he didn't understand, and continued to stand at the gate and listen to the joke.

"Don't answer him," stopped an old man in his fifties; "Do you know him?"

"I don't know!" The young man shook his head.

"I don't know what he's doing," the old man saw the rice in the young man's bowl, like a few fish, and asked, "Why are you tired of eating?" ”

While eating, the young man replied: "Noodles, sister-in-law rolling, wide and thick like a small fish......"

He didn't understand a word, and when he looked up, it was noon, the wind didn't blow, the birds didn't chirp, the cows didn't move, and there was silence. Only the little bird in the tree, lazily resting on the tree, seemed to be dreaming of a sweet harvest of "harvest", dreaming that the ground was full of golden grain, and that it was going to have a good meal.

Since he couldn't understand the speech, and he didn't bother to listen to the villagers' nonsense, he turned his gaze to the ground through the gaps in the trees. At a glance, there are still some people who continue to harvest and grab seeds in the field under the scorching sun, some are bending down to cut grain, some are stepping on threshers, and some are driving tractors, carrying yellow corn to their homes...... Happily dreaming of elves, a waltz of harvest danced in the hearts of the farmers of Zhugen City! The faces of the peasants were filled with the joy of a bumper harvest brought about by the household contract responsibility system after the reform and opening up.

"It's time to eat!" Suddenly, she shouted in the courtyard, and although there was no nomination, he knew that it was his own.

So, he quickly turned around and entered the gate. I happened to be bumping into her.

She came out of the Westinghouse kitchen with her meal, "Quick! Take a seat at the dining table in the hall! ”

"Okay!" He felt that the woman in front of him was very diligent and did things neatly, so he cooked the meal in the blink of an eye, and he couldn't help but secretly admire it.

To be able to get such a diligent woman is the happiness of my life. Can those squeamish young ladies in the city do it? I have to praise admirably, "My wife is Lisuo, and she makes a good meal!" ”

"It's simple, just fry a few dishes," she said, and she was happy in her heart, indicating that he was very good at pleasing himself. Put the meal on the table, explained; "Isn't that fast, the steamed buns are ready-made, and my mother just steamed them in the morning."

He looked at the food, and a fragrant smell of oil poured into his nostrils, "It's so fragrant!" The dish must have been added to the specialty of Takene City, small mill sesame oil, and immediately praised, "What a beautiful meal!" Fragrance, color, taste, good craftsmanship. ”

"Sit down and eat!"

"Don't panic!" He couldn't be rude anymore, because she had already reminded herself that the old man was not like the two of them, he could say anything, and even if he said something wrong, he wouldn't get angry, and it didn't matter whatever.

It can be seen that the old man is different, she is picky, and the slightest mistake will make the old mother dissatisfied.

Besides, it is also the case, since you come to visit your parents, you have to wait for your father-in-law and the whole family to arrive before you can eat, otherwise it will be the first time that the new son-in-law comes to the door and does not understand the rules, that is, he answers: "Let's wait, wait until the whole family arrives before eating." ”

"Who are you waiting for?" As she served the meal, she said as if she was afraid that she would not be able to reach it, and as if she had put all the delicious food in his bowl.

He sat down at the dinner table like a fool, "Wait for my father and sister-in-law!" ”

She handed him the bowl full of rice and chopsticks, and replied, "They will not come back, because they do not know that you are coming." ”

"What's so difficult about this," he immediately urged, "go to the brigade headquarters and make a call." ”

"Forget it!" She was very cheerful, as if she didn't hide anything, but in fact, there was an indescribable pain in her heart.

"How can you forget it!" He glared, the first time he came to the door, this rule was still understood, "You must have the whole family to eat it." ”

She saw that he had to wait until the whole family arrived to eat, and she was forced to helplessly, so she had to tell the whole situation of the family painfully, "Dad died at an early age, and my brother went out to work and didn't come back, so we were left with my mother and daughter at home." ”

"Ahh He immediately felt sympathy, it turned out that his father-in-law was no longer alive, and the mother and daughter lived pitifully enough. At this time, I finally understood, no wonder I only saw my mother when I entered the door, and I thought that my father had gone to work in the field, in this case, "Then wait for my sister-in-law to come back and eat!" ”

"Sister-in-law......" She shook her head and did not answer.

"yes!" Seeing that she shook her head and didn't answer, he aroused even more suspicion, and continued to ask: "In rural areas, people generally get married early, you are twenty-two years old, that brother must be older than you, could it be that my sister-in-law went back to her parents' house with the child?" ”

She didn't say anything about her brother, and she was sad when she mentioned it, as if she shouldn't have asked. I could see that there were bright tears in her eyes.

He panicked, and he didn't know which sentence he said wrong.

At this time, she turned her back and secretly wiped her tears, facing the boyfriend she had just met, she couldn't say this, it would make her boyfriend look down on her. So, when it comes to sadness, tears flow. Since the boyfriend asked; always said that he was ugly, and then he gave a reason: "He won't come back, because it's too far away, it's useless to call, so there's no need to wait." ”

He listened to the explanation, saw her sadness, his heart softened, and with her tears, tears of sympathy also flowed.

No, these are tears of love, miserliness and compassion.

Yes, love cannot be based on sympathy.

However, why did her tears touch her heart, and she couldn't tell if she was deeply in love with her.

So, there must be a reason for her sad tears, otherwise she wouldn't cry in front of her boyfriend, could it be that they are all dead, so she is sad, what is going on?

He was suspicious and uneasy, since he loved her, he should boldly bear the difficulties of the family, otherwise he would be called a manly man, the pillar of the family.

At this time, he took out a tissue and helped her wipe the tears that flowed on her eyelids, that is, while wiping them, he comforted her: "Please don't be sad, if there is anything sad, tell me, otherwise, I can't figure it out and won't eat......"

"He ......" she opened her mouth, still embarrassed to speak, and saw that he couldn't figure out the family situation and refused to eat, so she had to sigh: "Alas! Just because ...... poor"

"What is poor, there are a few rich families who are farmers, and everyone is the same." He said it, and said a few words of comfort and encouragement: "If you are poor, you have to be poor and ambitious, and my brother has ambition, isn't it good to go out to work in order to change his appearance!" What is there to be ashamed of. ”

He listened to his comforting words, so he had to tell the truth: "I didn't want to say it, but you kept asking, as if you didn't eat without a family situation, so I had to tell the truth, as for us to be friends...... It doesn't matter if you don't agree because my family is poor. ”

"What is the connection between the rich and the poor and our friends, the elder brother is the elder brother, we are us, and it will never affect our relationship."

"Since you have to inquire, I can only tell the truth that my brother is twenty-eight years old this year, just because his family is poor, and he is still single, and the young men in the same village are already married at the same age as him, and the children are more than ten years old."

He listened to the explanation, which was reasonable, and it was reasonable that her brother was six years older than her, and at that time the country practiced family planning, and a couple was allowed to have three children. However, a gap of five years was required before a second child was allowed, so the older brother and sister were six years old. However, her brother is twenty-eight years old, she is not a taste in her heart, she is worried that she has not found her sister-in-law, and she is also not a taste in her heart, so she can't be sad about this matter, so she hurriedly comforted, "If you are not married, you are not married, twenty-eight years old is not a big age, and there are girls in their thirties in the city." ”

"The countryside is not the city," she said sadly: "Most of the local young people get married early, not more than 20 years old. My brother may never find his daughter-in-law. What girl would want to marry into a single-parent family! ”

"Single-parent family......" He finally figured out the reason, she, who lost her father since she was a child, was her mother who took the brother and sister to live a difficult life, and finally pulled the brother and sister up. So the family was very poor, and it wasn't until they grew up one by one that they had just lived a good life, and the problem came again, starting a family for their children. "Yes! My brother went out to work, and the mother and daughter depended on each other, how difficult it was! ”

She stopped answering and kept crying, crying that her life was miserable, and she cried very sadly.

In the face of her crying, he was still a student at the time, what could he help! It seems that the family urgently needs a capable man to support him, but how can he be competent? Then he asked with sympathy and concern: "My brother went out to work, who will cultivate and harvest the land and crops?" ”

"Me and Mom," she said, pulling out a paper and secretly wiping away her tears again until they were dry.

I was afraid that my boyfriend would see that he was sad, so he changed his face, smiled, handed him steamed buns, and said, "After the reform and opening up, there are very few young people in the countryside at home, either going to the city to do business, or going out to work. Therefore, Zhugen City is a large county for the export of migrant workers. ”

He listened to her narration, and secretly admired in his heart, the woman who worked hard from snacks and farm work, knew the ups and downs of life, would live, knew that money was not easy to come by, and put the family affairs well, isn't it the lifelong partner he is looking for!
