Zhou Chen took the ten eggs to Teacher Li's house and brought them back untouched, "...... Teacher Li said that she didn't want anything, and Aunt Li hugged me and cried. said that our lives are hard, so that I can go to study whenever I want to ...... in the future."

Zhou Chen said these low-voiced people, from Aunt Zhao's family to Teacher Li and Aunt Li, the more kindness they got from strangers, the deeper their indifference and viciousness towards the Zhou family.

"It's okay, the days will be long in the future, whoever is good to us, we all remember, and one day we will have to repay others." Zhou Yang was afraid that Teacher Li would refuse to accept things, and his younger brother would have a burden to study again, so he hurriedly enlightened him.

"Hmm!" Zhou Chen nodded solemnly, "Let's remember the good and the bad!" ”

In the afternoon, Zhou Chen began to teach Zhou Yang literacy, Zhou Wanwan listened to it on the side, and felt that Zhou Chen was really smart, at that time in the morning, he learned more than 20 Chinese characters, and he remembered it very accurately, and there was no mistake in forming words and sentences, and he explained it clearly to Zhou Yang, just like a little teacher.

In the north of the month, it gets dark very early, and it is already dark at more than five o'clock in the afternoon. As soon as Shen Yufen finished boiling millet porridge, Zhou Chunxi and Zhou Chunlai broke in.

The kitchen was dim, and there was mist of moisture, the two of them were wearing thick cotton jackets and dogskin hats, and covered their heads and faces with scarves, and suddenly appeared like two big bears, which frightened Shen Yufen's mother and almost threw the pickle pimple in her hand.

Zhou Chunxi and Zhou Chunlai had gray faces, chapped lips, and it was difficult to enter the house to speak. They were not afraid of being hot, they drank half a pot of millet porridge by themselves, and ate five or six steamed buns to finally ease up, and then they began to eat at a normal speed, and they also had the strength to speak.

It turned out that Zhou Chunfa called the Gancha River Water Conservancy Infrastructure Construction Team yesterday and they received a notice from the operator, but the line was not good, and the operator only heard that something had happened at home.

The three brothers hurriedly went to ask for leave, but the infrastructure team was in a hurry, and the captain said that nothing was allowed to leave, and it was okay to leave, and two days of work would be deducted for one day of delay. Zhou Chunlai was worried about Shen Yufen, who was going to have a child, she must come back, Zhou Chunxi discussed with Zhou Chunliang, Zhou Chunxi was worried about his wife and daughter, and finally decided to come back, Zhou Chunliang was afraid that Mrs. Zhou would be unhappy when she came back, so she stayed in the infrastructure team and continued to work.

It was already evening when they asked for leave, and Zhou Chunlai and Zhou Chunxi didn't dare to delay, so they left for home immediately. There was no car on the way, and the two brothers walked 200 miles in the heavy snow, nearly a day and one night, and only asked for a bowl of cold water and two dry cakes in a supply and marketing cooperative, so they arrived home this evening.

By the time the two of them figured out what was going on at home with an incredulous face, it was already completely dark.

Of course, after Zhou Chunfa's mouth, it became that Mrs. Zhou covered the sky with one hand and changed relatives in private, and Zhou Ping was jealous that Zhou Juan had found a good mother-in-law, so she had to plant a blame on her head. As for Zhou Hongying's report, Li Guizhi's testimony has nothing to do with him, he told the truth.

"This, this is really evil...... Zhou Chunlai sighed and lowered his head deeply. No one knows whether he is talking about Zhou Ping's change of relatives or Li Xiuhua's tragedy.

Zhou Chunxi's hand nervously rubbed back and forth on his knees, opened his mouth a few times but couldn't make a sound, and finally looked at Zhou Chunfa and asked: "Mother, how is our mother now?" ”

Zhou Chun's hand trembled, and the paper roll that had just been rolled loosened again, and the finely chopped tobacco leaves fell to the ground, "What else can I do?" The public security of the commune are here, this has to be a criticism, maybe there will be various brigades to parade the streets, and it is not good to deduct the hat of a bad element, and the reputation of our old Zhou family will be completely stinky! ”

Zhou Chunfa suddenly raised his voice, and shouted at Zhou Chunxi angrily, as if Mrs. Zhou had come to where she is today because of Zhou Chunxi's hand, "You said that you, your son can't be raised, and the whole two daughters are also bad!" Cause trouble at home! Your daughter has made a mess, you can clean up after yourself! ”

Zhou Chunfa flicked his sleeves and entered the Dongli room, and no one noticed the relief he felt when he saw Zhou Chunxi's guilty look.

Zhou Chunlai saw that Zhou Chunfa was about to leave it alone, and immediately became anxious. Zhou Chunfa has dealt with the public family alone, he doesn't care, a few of them are old farmers who have black eyes wherever they go, what can they do about this?

Shen Yufen immediately grabbed Zhou Chunlai, "Chunlai, the kid kicked me just now, and I can't stand still." ”

Zhou Chunlai hurriedly took care of his daughter-in-law and children first, and he didn't eat anymore, so he hurriedly helped Shen Yufen back to the West House.

Zhou Chunxi looked at the eldest brother and fourth brother who had left one after another, and opened his mouth blankly.

Old man Zhou knocked the cigarette pouch and pot on the edge of the kang, completely ignoring the fact that Zhou Hongying, whose head was swollen like a pig's head, was awakened, and waved his hand, "It's not early, go to sleep." ”

Old man Zhou gave an order, and the Zhou Fu brothers, who wanted to leave but didn't dare to leave, ran away immediately.

Zhou Fu didn't lie on the kang until he was lying on the kang, his heart was still pounding, he was really afraid that his second uncle would come back and beat him. If the second uncle beats him, he can't say anything about it, so he can only suffer it......

Zhou Fu finally breathed a sigh of relief, but when he heard Nan Kang's mother and sister humming in pain, his heart lifted again. The second uncle has passed this level, but there is still the third uncle's level.

No matter what you say, Zhou Ping's change of relatives didn't work out, and the second uncle would beat them up at most. The third aunt is gone, this is a major matter of life, I don't know how to explain it to the third uncle when the time comes......

Zhou Chunxi sat in the dark room for a long time, and a long and short snoring sound slowly sounded around her, and Zhou Hongying, who couldn't sleep in pain on the south kang, tossed and turned over and over, and finally kicked Zhou Xia who was lying next to her in anger.

Zhou Xia was motionless as if she was dead, and it was not until she stopped kicking that Zhou Xia gently turned over in the quilt.

Zhou Chunxi has been on the road for a day and a night, and he is already very tired, but now he is not sleepy at all. He looked at the empty Beikang for a while, and then remembered the old lady Zhou who was still locked up in the commune, and immediately groped out of the east house, and saw the bright light of the kitchen for a moment.

Zhou Chen was cooking sweet potatoes, and he didn't bring Zhou Chunxi and Zhou Chunlai for dinner, and they didn't have to eat Zhou Yang's brothers and sisters. Zhou Chen could only do it again by himself.

"Four music ......" Zhou Chunxi screamed, but he didn't know what to say to Zhou Chen, both of them looked at each other and were silent.

"Little Er, are you okay? I'll light the fire, you go and tease her, don't let her get sleepy, or she won't be able to eat well in a while. Zhou Yang walked into the kitchen, through the moisture, the kitchen was dim, and he didn't see Zhou Chunxi standing silently in the shadows.

"Three music, and four music," Zhou Chunxi called out to the Zhou Yang brothers, and his hand subconsciously wiped it on his pants, "Your second aunt, your second aunt, she definitely didn't mean it, she didn't mean it, she didn't mean it......"

"Hmm." Zhou Yang vaguely responded to Zhou Chunxi, his mother has passed away, and he will be done without bad intentions? How can it be so cheap!

But the brothers heard the maintenance of Li Guizhi in Zhou Chunxi's words, so they gave up their plan to say anything to Zhou Chunxi, they are a family, and whatever he says is towards Li Guizhi, they have already made up their minds about right and wrong, and there is no need to fight with him.

Zhou Chen didn't bother to respond, turned around and left the kitchen, his sister was still alone in the house, he had to go back and watch quickly.

Zhou Chen left, and Zhou Chunxi felt that he should still say something to Zhou Yang. Zhou Yang didn't even look at him, and burned the fire silently.

"Your father, your father didn't know what happened, or he would definitely come back." Zhou Chunxi felt that no matter what he said, he had to explain for Zhou Chunliang.

"Everyone has informed them that something is wrong at home, so my father is not worried about us at all?" At the critical moment, Zhou Yang still has expectations for his father, so he has requirements for him.

Zhou Chunxi sighed and walked out the door. These two children have a grudge against his father......

An ignorant child, the grace of birth and nurturing is greater than the sky, how can he be separated from his own father and mother......

Early the next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, Zhou Chunlai got up and finished holding the firewood, and was about to open the gate to pour ash out, when the gate was knocked open from the outside with a bang, and the black bear-like Xu Dali strode in.

"Why don't you welcome your relatives yet? I've never seen your family do such a happy event! Why don't you want to get married? ”

Zhou Chunlai was completely confused by him, because of the change of parents, the Zhou family was in such a mess, why do you still want to get married?

Xu Dali tightened the straw rope on his waist, and a pile of wheat stalks filled with cold fell from the thin and worn cotton jacket, and he didn't care about Zhou Chunlai, who was stunned, strode into the house, shouting in a loud voice: "Does the old Zhou family have the final say?" If you want to be a national cadre, you look down on us ordinary people? ”

Zhou Wanwan was awakened by Xu Dali's loud voice and the sound of slamming the door. Zhou Yang looked at his sister who woke up from Zhou Chen's arms with blindfolded eyes, leaned over and kissed her little face that was sleeping pink, and then pressed Zhou Chen, who was about to get up, back to the quilt and pressed his quilt on them.

"I'll go see what's going on, burn the brazier again, and get up again when the house is warm." Since Mrs. Zhou was taken away, no one has been burning the brazier for the East House, so Zhou Yang brought the brazier over, burning it every day and night, and writing in the West House does not freeze his hands, and the frost on the wall has melted a lot.

"Sleep a little longer?" Zhou Chen closed his eyes and hugged his sister to him and lay on his stomach, his fingers slowly combing her small hair curls.

Zhou Wanwan was also in a daze, and she was too lazy to speak when she got up in the morning, so she took Zhou Chen's hand and wrote the word "no" on his hand.

Zhou Chen's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at his sister incredulously, "Write again." ”

Zhou Wanwan used his chubby fingers to write again on his second brother's hand, and scratched his palm naughtily after writing.

Zhou Chen sat up, hugged his sister in his arms, and tightly surrounded the two people with the quilt, revealing only their hands, "What else will you write?" Write a few more to the second brother. ”

Zhou Wanwan slowly wrote a few simple strokes of "person", "up", "down", and a few numbers. She had to hurry up and get her brothers to accept her literacy, or it would be difficult for her to participate in their learning later.

"Anything else?" Zhou Chen was so happy that he was stupid, his sister is so smart! It's only been a day of teaching, and I've learned a few words! She doesn't just write, she uses it!

Zhou Wanwan shook her head in distress, "The eldest brother taught a piece of paper, so I will remember these few." ”

"That's amazing! But many people learn for a month, and you may not know as many words! Zhou Chen hugged his sister and rolled around excitedly on the kang, so frightened that Zhou Yang, who entered the house with a brazier, hurriedly dragged them together.

Zhou Chen hurriedly presented a treasure to Zhou Yang, praising his sister's cleverness to the point that there is nothing in the sky and on the earth. Zhou Yang didn't like the meat and numbness, and added oil and vinegar on the side. Rao is accustomed to the style of his brothers, and Zhou Wanwan blushed a little.

"You two don't have to do anything in the future, just study hard! All of them are admitted to university! Zhou Yang suddenly felt full of energy, and waved his hand arrogantly, "Big brother earns money for the two of you!" ”

"Go to university! Entrance to university! Zhou Wanwan also clapped her hands and jumped in Zhou Chen's arms.

After such a distraction, by the time the three of them remembered to pay attention to what was happening in the East House, there had been a commotion over there for a long time.

Don't look at Xu Dali's crippled hand, his combat effectiveness is not weak at all, he is tall and strong, coupled with a full face and beard, one person has the upper hand over the five men of the Zhou family, old and young.

"I'm going to get married today, what's the matter with you leaving my sister there silently?! My sister-in-law has seen it in your family, there is no problem and no reputation, why do you regret marriage? Your repentant marriage, my sister has no face to see people! She is crying and fussing at home now! Let me tell you, if my sister really dies, your old Zhou family will be forced to die! When the time comes, I will go to the commune to accuse you of persecuting women!" Death! The barefoot are not afraid to wear shoes! I see if you can still be a cadre! ”

"The public security of the commune are here, and it is illegal to change relatives, how dare you mention marriage!" As soon as Zhou Chunfa heard that Xu Dali was going to make a fuss to the commune, he immediately became short of breath.

If he really makes trouble in the commune, no matter what the final result is, he will have to become the laughing stock of the whole commune, and how can the leaders of the people still promote him.

Originally, Mrs. Zhou's matter was embarrassing enough, and he could still blame the old man for being ignorant and ignorant of the law, but this Xu Dali was coming at him with all his strength, and he couldn't shake it off.

"Who's going to swap relatives with you?!" Xu Daliniu's eyes glared, "Just your old Zhou family's style, it stinks so much that the whole commune is famous!" If it weren't for the fact that my sister-in-law and you have set a date, our family will be poor for eight generations, and you can let your family stay on the sidelines? I won't marry your daughter! ”

"Then get married!" Wang Fengying weakly leaned against the wall and walked out, her whole body was in severe pain for two days, and she suddenly got better this morning, but her body was still too weak to do it, and she shook when she took two steps.

"I don't talk to old wits!" Xu Dali waved his hand in the direction of Wang Fengying, and without looking at her, he forced Zhou Chunfa to make a statement. (To be continued.) )
