"Shen Lotus? Anterior depression? The wife tried hard to recall, "Is the second family's branch the one from the Shen family's Rongxi Hall?" ”

Although liberated, the grandmother has been the patriarch of the Zhou family for hundreds of years, and the old man is still accustomed to using the family name that has been passed down for hundreds of years to distinguish several large families with inheritance nearby.

"Mother, the brigade organizes women to study, Bingxian is the captain, I can't hold him back, I have to behave positively! I'll tell you more when I get back! The second uncle and mother-in-law hurriedly went out after an explanation, Zhou Xiaoan looked at her back, how did she look like she was running away.

It wasn't until it was dark that the second uncle came back with the second uncle.

The mother-in-law was sitting on the kang and telling Zhou Xiaoan and Zhou Xiaoquan, who were lying on her lap, about Zhou Yuehai's childhood.

“…… In the winter of the year when he was six years old, he was not yet six years old, Erhai had a small birthday, he was born in October, and it was your second uncle who delivered the baby at that time. Your milk attack was sudden, and your second uncle and mother-in-law were alone, and we rushed over after the child landed for a long time......"

The old man's memories are imaginative, where he thinks of it, he talks about delivering babies for a long time, and it takes a long turn to pick up the original topic.

“…… Counting that Erhai was just over five years old at that time, he was able to follow the older children in their teens to the river to shave ice and fish......"

Dig an ice hole in the ice in the river, hold a simple fishing hook and stand on the ice, and sit for a small day. Province B is not the Great Northern Wilderness where you scoop fish with rods and robes, there are not so many fish in the river, and you can catch three or five palm-sized trash fish a day.

“…… After being frozen for most of the winter, the child caught half of the pocket fish, froze it and took it to the market to sell, and the money from the sale made your milk back a piece of flower cloth, and made new clothes for the Shen lotus, and even a piece of candy didn't give me Erhai to buy! ”

"My Erhai is also a stubborn temper, I was worried about taking the money from selling fish to make a small firewood knife for myself in the winter, and I went to the blacksmith in the village to choose all the iron, and when I saw that the money from selling fish was gone, I went fishing again without saying a word."

The wife is getting older, and her heart is getting softer and softer, and her eyes are wet when she talks about it, "There was a lot of smoke and snow on the day of the accident, and the wife lived so old, more than eighty!" I've seen that much snow once in my life, and it was cold that day......

talked about the bad weather for decades again, and Zhou Xiaoquan was so anxious that he grabbed his hair, and the wife returned to the topic:

“…… I have a big life! The merchant who was lost in the snow in the smoke ran into him, and the child was frozen on the ice and could not move. Dezhong's family (Mrs. Zhou) said at the time that the child would not survive, so she took off all the cotton clothes and wanted to throw Erhai naked! Caught up with the sea and came back from the mine, saying that he didn't let him throw anything, and Erhai picked up a life! ”

The wife said succinctly, but she couldn't remember it so clearly after a long time, and she didn't want to say the rights and wrongs of the elders in front of the children.

In fact, in order not to throw Zhou Yuehai out at that time, Zhou Dahai and his mother made a lot of noise, and invited a few of the second uncle and the clan elder who were the patriarchs, and everyone agreed to throw them out.

Frozen like this, even if you don't die, it doesn't have to be a situation, the war is in chaos, asking the doctor to catch the medicine is not a small amount of money, in case the family is bankrupt and the child has not been cured, and you have to raise a cripple, isn't that a big loss!

Or Zhou Dahai insisted on treating it, if a few pills went down, it would not be too late to throw them out, so Mrs. Zhou reluctantly agreed to leave the dying child for the time being.

But no one expected that Zhou Yuehai's vitality would be so strong, and he would be able to go to the ground with two medicines, but he also changed from a smiling boy all day long to a stuffy gourd with a straight face.

“…… That year, Dezhong (Old Man Zhou) came back from the owner for the New Year, and he didn't know how Erhai told him, and after the New Year, Dezhong took him to the carpenter shop in the city, and this time, your grandfather was seriously ill and your grandmother passed away, and he came back twice, and never came back......"

The wife let out a long sigh and touched the two silent little heads on her legs, "You have to accumulate virtue to be a man!" If your father hadn't said that he would save Erhai in everything, he would have gone, and no one would have taken care of you orphans and widows so attentively! ”

Zhou Xiaoan and Zhou Xiaoquan glanced at each other, wiped their tears embarrassedly, and nodded vigorously in response to the wife.

The second uncle and the second uncle came back, and the mother-in-law asked about Shen Lotus again, and the second uncle said loudly to his mother, "It's the branch of the Shen family of Rongxi Hall, and Shen Lotus is the son-in-law's family." ”

"Didn't Shen Lao Fu'er go back to his hometown in Henan? It's been more than 20 years, why did you come back? "My wife remembers this family quite clearly.

Generally, people with family protection are easy not to recruit sons-in-law, and there is no son in the clan to inherit the incense. Sooner or later, that property has to be remembered by others! The clan won't agree either!

Shen Hehua's family is more special, although it is also a member of the Shen family, but after many generations, the relationship with the branch has been very far away, and there is almost no kinship.

The son-in-law recruited was a deserter, the family was dead, and his surname was Shen, and the child was no different from anyone's surname, so he would definitely be able to stay in the Shen family with peace of mind, so he was recruited.

But that's it, Shen Laofu'er still made a fuss about taking his wife and children back to his hometown when he had a son.

"The four eldest sons of the Shen family are all back?" At that time, Shen Hehua's mother gave birth to four sons in one go, all of whom were strong and strong, and they were also famous in ten miles and eight towns.

"Shen Lao'er and those four boys are gone! Just Shen and Shen Lotus are back! There was no need for the wife to ask, the second uncle immediately explained.

"Shen Lao Fu'er and the two boys starved to death in the 42nd year of the Henan disaster, a kid worked in the field, let the passing devils practice aiming and killed, and the remaining one and Shen Hehua her man repaired the river embankment and buried the stones last year."

"Did you stay for a while?" The elderly are still most concerned about this issue.

The second uncle shook his head, "The youngest son who died last year had a son and a daughter, and his daughter-in-law remarried and took it away, and his surname was changed, and he stayed in Henan and didn't come back." Shen Lotus has two girls with her, but what is the use of girls with the surname Shen! ”

The wife immediately became anxious, "Then what is she asking about our Erhai?" Dezhong's family said that they would set a baby kiss for the two children, and she cried several times when they left, but now we don't agree! That Shen Lotus, a widow with a child, is worthy of our two seas! ”

The second uncle nodded hurriedly, "Then how can you agree!" Our Erhai is now a big cadre, and we have to marry a cultural person in the city! I went to tell their captain, I have to take a good look at the people of the old Shen family, but I can't let them walk around, let alone open a letter of introduction to let them go away! ”

Although the wife doesn't care about anything, her knowledge is still stronger than that of ordinary rural old ladies, "Let Shen Lao Liu see a few of that girl!" You can't let them go out and talk nonsense, we have to have a good influence!

You go again tomorrow and talk to Shen's mother, our Erhai is a combat hero broadcast in the county, and if they dare to smear them, they will arrest the commune and criticize it! ”
