Cui Shijun of Cui Jiatun was also thinking about his mother at this time, in the past, he would take his wife and children to visit his mother early in the morning of the first day of the new year. But today, my mother followed my second brother into the city, and my wife was not satisfied with the second brother helping my eldest brother's family, so she didn't let herself go to see my mother. He was in a bad mood, but he had no choice but to sulk at home alone.

Seeing his frowning appearance, Li Zhen gave him a slap in the face when he was angry. "What kind of expression do you have on the New Year's Day? Don't you want to see my mom and them? Still not happy that my mom is coming to the door? ”

Cui Shijun glanced up at his wife, and it took a long time to look away, stand up and leave the house, without saying a word.

The mother of the Li family, who was sitting on the kang, looked at her uncle's unhappy appearance and pouted. "What? Is he dissatisfied with our family coming to the door? ”

"Huh, how dare he?" Li Zhen was a little worried about her husband's eyes just now, and even a little worried. But in the face of her mother, she pretended to have a grim expression.

"You, it's still a little worse, otherwise how could he still dare to lose his temper with you after so many years? If you want me to say, you can't give him face, you can make trouble when you need to, and if you can't do it, you will divorce him. You know, now that their family is poor and white, how dare he drip? The child is so old, does he really dare to divorce? Mother Li glanced at the door, very dissatisfied with her daughter's incompetence, and hurriedly told her about her experience.

"You can't get used to this man, like your father, who has lived with me all his life, how about it? He didn't dare to say what I didn't let him say, he didn't care what I didn't let him do, and he didn't dare to dig into his pocket the money I didn't let him spend. Although I didn't have a rich life with him in this life, I lived a comfortable life. It's worth it, women are always the same in this life. ”

Thinking of what her mother said about her father, Li Zhen disapproved very much, but when she thought of the Great New Year, her mother brought her nephews and nieces over, and she wanted to make her happy, so she didn't plan to say anything right or wrong with her, just hummed and exposed the topic.

"Mom, what do you want to eat at night? I'll do it for you. ”

"You're tired from the day, is there any leftover from the lunch meal? If you have one, just heat it up, and prepare half a catty of liquor for me. As for the appetizers, you can do anything, and the three children, you can just watch and get something. "Mother Li didn't treat herself as an outsider, in her heart, raising her daughter is yes, eating and drinking for herself. His three daughters are all average, but they are very good to themselves. As long as she goes, she cooks everything delicious for herself, and gives money in addition to taking things before leaving, so she takes turns living at her daughter's house for half of the year.

The old man doesn't like this, so he stays at home to farm and make money, and his grandchildren like to follow him to his aunt's house when they are on vacation, so it's okay to take it with him. Now no one is short of children's food and drink, so there is nothing to worry about. Besides, all of his daughters are good, and they are all the number one in her in-law's family, who dares to say a word? Therefore, she has no burden on going to her daughter's house.

Listening to her mother's words, Li Zhen didn't react and shouted outside. "Cui Shijun, you dead ghost, where have you been? Hurry up and prepare a few snacks, my mother and I want to have a drink. ”

There was no echo outside, but he heard the sound of the pot lid ringing, and knew that he had already begun to prepare. Li Zhen smiled proudly, hum, what if he was really tough? Didn't he listen to his own words obediently? Hmph, when my mother is gone, I must teach this man a good lesson. I can't afford to make money, and my brother doesn't help, if he doesn't make a careful budget, he can still eat. Do you still dare to lose your temper with yourself? He didn't dare to borrow a few guts.

Li's mother was also very satisfied with the sound coming from outside, and was about to praise her daughter, when she heard the house being pushed away and her grandson coming in from outside.

"Yo, what's going on? The little face is tense, and the little mouth is pouting. Who made our eldest grandson angry? ”

"Hmph, everyone is hungry, why don't they eat? Third aunt, why are you still sitting, hurry up and cook. I'm not hungry. Li Jiabao entered the door and saw that his grandmother and aunt were still sitting on the kang, and his displeasure was even more obvious.

"What? Your uncle didn't cook? As she spoke, Li Zhen put on her shoes and walked out of the house with a kick.

"Uncle? Don't you see? Li Jiabao stepped out of the way of the door, looked at his grandmother and then at his aunt, with a look of ignorance. Although he is seventeen years old, he is used to being used to being a big child, every eldest child, and he still thinks that he is seven or eight years old and follows his grandmother, today this aunt's house will live for a few days, and tomorrow the aunt's house will live for a few days, I haven't thought about such a big child at all, it's not good-looking, it's not ashamed.

He is not good at reading, he has already dropped out of school, and he has not finished junior high school. Dad and Mom wanted him to learn a craft from others, but Grandma felt sorry for him and insisted that he hadn't grown into a stick body and couldn't do those hard work. So after three years, he has become accustomed to living like this with his grandmother. You don't have to do anything, you buy new clothes, and you eat every meal.

Sometimes when my grandmother was at home for a long time, he would urge my grandmother to go to my aunt's house to have a look. And his parents talked about him several times, and even beat him a few times for this, but they didn't get rid of his problem. The main thing is that every time he is beaten, he cries and screams to call his grandmother, so he doesn't suffer anything every time. After a long time, Mom and Dad gave up.

He is very happy for these little means of his own, who said that if you don't study, you won't have a good life? See how you're doing? Even those children who are good at reading can't live, right? Thinking of this, he had just been unhappy because of hunger.

Li Zhen pushed away her nephew, walked out of the house, and saw the cold hall, and there was no Cui Shijun at all. pushed open another room, and there was no figure of Cui Shijun inside.

At this moment, she remembered the look in Cui Shijun's eyes just now, and her heart felt a little worried for the first time. But thinking of Cui Shijun's character, she was relieved again. He was angry, but he didn't dare to really do anything.

At ease, she began to arrange the evening meal. Looking at the meat and vegetables at home, her brow furrowed. It is said that when he was fourteen or fifteen years old and ate a poor man, his nephew was really growing up, and for one person's sake, they ate a meal for three of them. It's only been two days, and there is not much left of the family to prepare until the fifteenth. He also complained that there was no good food, and thinking about it made her angry.

I hate my sister-in-law for not knowing what is going on, such a big child, and let him live with his grandmother at his aunt's house, and he will live for ten days and half a month, and his family will be eaten poor. What's more, the life of his own family is only slightly better, which is still saved by his own frugality. It's okay if my mother comes to eat, but what's the matter with my nephew eating with me? If it's half a time, it's okay, and I haven't followed my mother every time, and I still order food when I come.

The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and her working hands became heavier, which made the grandparents and grandchildren who were laughing in the room stunned for a moment.

"Hmph, your third aunt is disgusted with our mother, let's go, we don't live here to dislike people. Jiabao, follow grandma and go home. As she spoke, the old lady got off the kang and put on her shoes, took the small burden she carried wherever she went, took her eldest grandson's hand and walked out.

Li Jiabao was very dissatisfied, "Milk, my hand hurts when you pull it." I don't know where you ate all your meat, why are your hands so thin, so panicked. ”

Mrs. Li let go of her grandson's hand distressedly, "Yo, is my eldest grandson okay?" It's all grandma's bad, look at my eldest grandson's little tender hands made red? It's all your third aunt, if she hadn't broken the pot and bowl, could I be so angry? Can you make the eldest grandson suffer? ”

Seeing his grandmother's distressed appearance, Li Jiabao smiled with satisfaction. He likes his grandmother to coax himself like this, making him feel that he is the most important, that he wants to be high, and that he wants to be cared for by everyone.

"Mom? What are you doing? Li Zhen, who was burning the fire in the stove, looked up and saw the old lady with the burden and the nephew who liked it, and was stunned for a moment.

"What? You've shown me all faces, what am I still doing here? Waiting for you to blast us out? Mrs. Li pouted as she spoke, as if only this mouth was the only organ on her face that was more functional and used more frequently.

Li Zhen was already angry with Cui Shijun, but at this time, seeing that her mother was still joining in the fun, she threw the firewood in her hand angrily for a while, and the person also stood up.

"Trouble, you can mess with me? Don't you see me working so hard to prepare dinner for you? Why did you show your face? Eat ready-made, eat good, and eat sin? If you like to walk, you can go, it's not completely dark at this time, and you may encounter any vehicles when you go out, but if you really don't have a car, you can walk back by yourself. Thinking of this, Li Zhen remembered that her son, the nephew and niece of the second brother's family had not come back yet, and hurriedly said: "As for Li Jiayu and Li Jiahuan, I will send them back tomorrow." If you want to go, hurry up, I don't need to prepare snacks and food. ”

After speaking, Li Zhen didn't look at her mother, went back to her room, lay on the hot kang, covered the quilt, and closed her eyes. Although her eyes were closed, her heart was boiling. What does it mean to think about Cui Shijun? Is it angry with yourself? Or are you really angry? Didn't you say anything? Why did he have that look on his face today? And the look he gave at himself really scared her, as if there was something in it that she didn't know, devouring herself, making her weak and angry at the same time.

Watching her daughter slam the door into the house and hang herself and her grandson here, Mrs. Li choked in her throat in one breath, and she couldn't go up or down. He sat down on the floor of the hall and slapped his thighs and cried.

"I raised my daughter with hard work, gave you food and clothing, helped you Zhang Luo's family, and prepared a dowry for you. When I am old, I have lived in your house for a few days, my uncle's nose is not a nose and my face is not a face, and my daughter also showed me a face, what do you say I am still alive? I'm not alive anymore! ”

Li Zhen, who was lying on the kang, frowned, how could she forget what her mother was like? How could she leave quietly? Such a howl, not to mention that the whole tunzi knows it, but also knows it in front of this house. How will I talk to others in the future? How can you make others respect?

Li Jiabao smiled and watched his grandmother sitting on the ground, and her howl of singing and chanting, feeling that his grandmother was really a capable person. Not only can they hold their grandfather and father at home, but even their uncle and mother are also afraid of grandma, otherwise why are they all cautious in front of grandma? Aren't you just afraid that grandma will make a fuss?

and his three aunts, they are also afraid of grandma like this, you wait, the third aunt should come out in a while, not only to coax grandma with good words, but also to prepare delicious food and drink for grandma to eat. He just waits for the fruits of victory!

Li Zhen pushed open the door with a hard head, and the nephew was really like this, and her mother was sitting at the door of the stove, patting her thighs in ashes, howling and crying.

sighed helplessly, she really had a headache with such a mother, did she discredit her daughter like this? Is there such a carelessness? For the first time, Li Zhen became suspicious of her mother's approach.

"Mom, what are you doing here? Hurry up, the new clothes are dirty. As he spoke, he saw his nephew gloating on the side, and scolded him: "Jiabao, you too, such a big child, didn't you see your grandmother sitting on the ground?" Didn't you see her clothes swell? You don't know how to pull her and comfort her? You know, your grandma usually loves you the most, but does this make your grandma feel cold? ”

Sure enough, Li Zhen's words seemed to wake up Mrs. Li, and she glanced at her grandson while crying, and what she saw was an expression of watching a play. Feeling that he made such a fuss, did he put on a good show? At this moment, Mrs. Li felt a little uncomfortable, and for the first time, she was dissatisfied with her eldest grandson.

Li Jiabao didn't care about his aunt's words, and his grandmother's expression, he still looked at them and smiled. "You say you women can really make a fuss, what a big deal? Isn't it just a matter of a meal? My aunt hurriedly prepared the meal, and my grandmother ate it, and her anger disappeared, and she was fine. As for this? ”

Mrs. Li paused when she wanted to continue howling, and looked at her grandson in disbelief, is this what he said? Is his crying such a thing in his eyes?

Li Zhen thought about it carefully, and it was really like this. Isn't it just a matter of a meal? It's just that if you want to eat this meal smoothly, I'm afraid it's going to be difficult. She remembered the man who was not at home, and sighed helplessly. (To be continued.) )
