Liang Xuetao came out of Xu Yaoguang's house and walked slowly home.

It was too cold, and at the end of the day, the snow on the ground did not melt much, but there were some potholes and a layer of ice accumulated, and the light was dark at night.

Therefore, at night, it was not necessary, very few people ran out, and Liang Xuetao walked all the way home, but he didn't see a single figure.

When he arrived at the corner, he suddenly heard a commotion, and he looked up to see a group of people standing at the gate of Guo's courtyard, all holding the door, looking like they wanted to see but didn't dare to look.

Two of them turned their heads and happened to see Liang Xuetao, and hurriedly walked over to say hello.

Liang Xuetao recognized Xu Yaoguang's two drinking friends, who were usually full of food and drink, and always liked to wander around the village when they had nothing to do, so he nodded and asked, "What are you two doing?" ”

One of them, who was slightly shorter, blinked with a pair of cross-eyed eyes, turned his head and pointed at the Guo family: "Brother Taozi, the old man of the Guo family is dead, I heard that he was drunk and lying under the wall and froze to death!" Probably a little timid in his heart, after saying that, he couldn't help but shudder.

"Guo Xiangbing's father?" Liang Xuetao asked with a frown.

The other nodded: "Guo Xiangbing is not at home, and he can't contact anyone for a while, speaking of which, this old man Guo is really pitiful, he didn't even have a person who fell into the pot when he died, no, Zhou Zhishu and they all rushed here." ”

Liang Xuetao heard this and walked in quickly.

There are a bunch of people standing in twos and threes in the small courtyard, among which several village cadres led by Zhou Cheng are gathering together to discuss something, Liang Xuetao looked around, not far from the bottom of the wall, the body of the old man Guo was wrapped in a straw mat and placed on the ground, and a pair of feet were still exposed.

Zhou Cheng and the others nodded when they saw Liang Xuetao, and came up to chat a few words.

To the effect that the corpse of the old man Guo smelled of alcohol, it was estimated that he should be drunk, and ran to the yard in a delirium, and then lay on the ground and fell asleep, and when the neighbors found out, his body was hard.

Liang Xuetao watched it for a while, and then went home.

Soon after he left, Guo Cuilian, the sister of Old Man Guo, staggered under her feet and cried into the yard, looked at Old Man Guo's corpse a few times, and did not dare to come forward, just stood in place and kept sobbing, and at the same time began to howl in her mouth: "Brother, brother, why are you so miserable......

Don't look at her crying miserably, looking like she is grieving the death of her relatives, in fact, the relationship between the brother and sister is not harmonious.

Old man Guo's parents are patriarchal, Guo Cuilian has been working at home since she can remember, doing farm work, doing housework, and serving Old Man Guo... When she was eighteen years old, she was sold by her parents for a good price and married a widower surnamed Xu in her village.

However, the customs and habits of Datian Village pay attention to the fact that death is like annihilation, and in the eyes of the villagers, even if the brothers and sisters have any more suspicions in the past, these hatreds and resentments should be completely dissipated with the death of Old Man Guo.

Especially when Guo Xiangbing can't be contacted, and Old Man Guo only has such a relative as Guo Cuilian in the village, for this blood relationship, anyone with a little brain will take the initiative to take care of Old Man Guo's funeral.

Sure enough, without waiting for Zhou Cheng and Xu Rongguang to speak, after Guo Cuilian cried for a while, she said in public regardless of her previous suspicions that she had covered all matters such as the cremation of Old Man Guo's body and the grave.

The next day, the old man Guo was drunk and froze to death completely spread in Datian Village, and everyone talked about it, and after sighing for a while, they began to be busy with the work at hand, killing pigs and cattle, repairing houses, what should they do.

Liang Xuetao ran to two houses in a morning and bought a lot of pork, most of which were going to be made into sausages, and the rest were diced and made into meat sauce.

Bolognese sauce is a good thing, sandwiched buns, stir-fried vegetables as seasonings, and porridge are all good, especially the spicy meat sauce made by Wei Hongyu, which tastes excellent and is counted among the best in Datian Village.

The amount to be done this time is quite large, Liang Xuetao roughly estimated, probably can install a large water tank.

After lunch, Liang Xuetao and Wei Hongyu began to get busy.

Wei Hongyu dried and cleaned the winter bamboo shoots and tofu, while Liang Xuetao began to shave the meat on the side, then cut the meat into strips and then diced again.

One afternoon, the sound of chopping vegetables in the stove room did not stop.

When it came at four o'clock in the afternoon, when Wei Hongyu was frying the fifth pot of spicy meat sauce, Liu Wenlan came.

With two chickens in his hand, he went straight to the stove room, saw Wei Hongyu, and grinned: "I brought it to you to beat the tooth sacrifice, one male and one female." ”

Wei Hongyu was not polite, she accepted it on the spot, turned her head and took the ribs to her again.

Liu Wenlan glanced at Liang Xuetao, who was chopping vegetables on the side, and said with a sneering expression: "You are too polite, you have to send something back if you get something." ”

Wei Hongyu smiled: "Liang Xuetao bought a lot of meat in the morning, and there are still many at home." ”

Liu Wenlan saw that she couldn't refuse, so she went home with her ribs.

It was busy until about six o'clock in the afternoon, when the meat sauce was fried, and then, Wei Hongyu put down the pot of noodles again, and the family made do with a meal.

After dinner, Liang Xuetao was brushing pots and washing dishes in the stove room, when he suddenly heard Wei Hongyu calling him outside the door, saying that Xu Yaoguang was here.

Liang Xuetao answered, twisted the rag in his hand, wiped the stove clean, and then walked out of the stove room unhurriedly and returned to the hall.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw Xu Yaoguang sitting on the sofa with a loud voice, dressed in a peasant short-cut costume, with his hair oily and shiny, and his locks drooping on the door of his head.

Liang Xuetao's heart suddenly couldn't respond, and after sitting down far away from him, he asked, "Something?" ”

Xu Yaoguang scratched his hair and smiled: "Last night, I drank too much ....... some nonsense......

"Okay, it's all in the past, don't mention it again. But for your own good, I still have to advise you, wine hurts your body, think about the fate of Old Man Guo. ”

When Xu Yaoguang heard him say this, he couldn't help but recall the scene he saw in the Guo family's courtyard last night, nodded hurriedly, and said with palpitations: "Write it down, I won't dare to drink too much in the future." Probably because he was angry in his heart, he was anxious to confide something, and without waiting for Liang Xuetao to ask, he suddenly changed his words and carefully recounted the incident mentioned yesterday from beginning to end.

After listening to this, Liang Xuetao couldn't help but snort coldly in his heart.

The reason for these bad things in the Xu family is still bad in Xu Baosheng, the old man of the Xu family.

Speaking of which, Xu Baosheng's family is considered to be the fourth generation of the same family, with a family of more than 30 people, and it can be called a large family with a large population in Datian Village.

Xu Yaoguang is the youngest in the family, and there are three brothers and one sister above.

When the family was separated, Xu Baosheng left two acres of land in his name, and the remaining nearly 20 acres of land were divided equally among his four sons, and bluntly said that he would follow the boss Xu Guoguang, and the house was naturally given to Xu Guoguang, and the other three sons moved out one after another to build new houses.

Xu Baosheng is a retired employee of a serious state-owned enterprise, with a pension of more than 3,000 yuan per month, he has no bad habits, he does not smoke or drink, and there is no place to spend money in the countryside, and most of the pension saved every month is subsidized by Xu Guoguang's family.

Xu Guoguang originally thought that he was taking advantage of it, but now it seems that this is not the case.

Everyone knows that no matter how much money they have on hand now, they may not be able to buy things for food and clothing, so even if Xu Baosheng eats less, it can be regarded as a ration in the eyes of Xu Guoguang and his wife.

After some discussion, the two proposed that the four brothers in the family must take turns to take care of their old father.

This matter is indeed Xu Guoguang's unreasonableness, but Xu Baosheng blindly favors the eldest son, Xu Rongguang is inconvenient to refute because of the identity of the village chief, Xu Haiguang is too honest and wooden, only Xu Yaoguang is a fool, and he is angry in his heart, so he quarrels with the eldest brother on the spot regardless of it.
