Chapter 2: Red Eye

This year is a good year and a bumper harvest. The grain harvested in the field was enough to eat for a year, and last year's grain had already been eaten up, so I went to the grain store to buy two months' worth of grain, but it cost a lot of money.

I was thinking that I could save some money this year so that I could buy a dowry for Chunhua, but I didn't expect something to happen to Ge Wenzhi. Chen Suyun is not good at talking about her own mother-in-law, and she is really angry in her heart, and she will cause an accident during the New Year!

"Get me to the antechamber and kneel!" Chen Suyun said sharply.

In the front hall, there are tablets for the Bodhisattva and the previous generations of the Ge family, and Chen Suyun wears three incense sticks every day, when it doesn't fall. The little girls don't like to smell the smell of incense, but fortunately, the front hall is relatively large, and the confession is in the innermost, and there is a bamboo curtain to cover it.

If you make a mistake, you must first kneel in front of the ancestral tablet for two hours and reflect on what you did wrong. This is the rule left by Lao Ge when he was there.

Ge Xiahe walked away.

The village is not far from the county seat, and it only takes half an hour to walk. But in Ge Wenzhi's situation, he definitely can't go by himself, so he has to borrow an ox cart with someone.

There are not many people in the village who have cows, and one family makes tofu, and the head of the family is a sick man, who can't do the work in the field and has a little savings to buy a cow. It's just that the superstition of that family, I think that the Ge family is angry and will hinder her family, and I usually don't like to have much contact with the Ge family.

The other family is a wealthy family, surnamed Lu, who moved from other places. The two are in their fifties, and the six sons under their knees are filial. They are also kind. The daughter-in-law of the eldest son of the Lu family died of illness three years ago, and after that, it seemed to mean something to Chen Suyun. There are already a lot of rumors in the village, and Chen Suyun is not good to go to Lu's house to borrow it again.

"Autumn leaves and autumn flowers, help my mother go to Grandma Lu's house and ask, is the ox cart empty?" Chen Suyun instructed two small Dao.

"Huh." The two of them responded crisply.

Vestibule.

Ge Chunhua found a thicker straw mat and handed it to Ge Xiahe. It's cold on the ground, but don't freeze your legs.

"What is the use of a straw mat? Even the cotton cloth is better. Ge Xiahe muttered as he took the straw mat.

"You're beautiful. And the cotton cloth too! My mother hasn't made new clothes this year, so you don't know what's going on at home! Ge Chunhua pushed Xia He's head.

"It's okay if the little uncle is fine, if there is something! Hmph"

"What's wrong! You want me to be buried with you! Xia He replied.

"What is this called! Ge Xia He! Originally, I saw that you were a little squeamish, and everyone in your family let you have a point. I didn't expect it to be like this now! Ge Chunhua was also a little angry, "Seriously, you hate grandma the most." But in this family, you are the one who is most like her! ”

Xia He wanted to reply, but under the eldest sister's angry eyes, she only pursed her lips.

"Don't like the little uncle for not working? Hmph, Ge Xiahe, what have you done? The field is made by me and Dongdong, and my mother takes some manual work to patch up the house, even the autumn leaves and autumn flowers also help my mother clean up the house. What about you? Chunhua asked.

"Do you still have a conscience? The two silver pendants on your ears were bought for you by your little uncle who sold a book......" Ge Chunhua walked to Xia He's side, "Open up, open up." ”

Xia He moved: "What are you doing?" ”

"It's useless to talk to you, give me the mat. It's good if your leg is broken! Ge Chunhua took the mat and left.

Xia He's whole person fell, and the anger that he pretended to be in front of him was gone.

She knew she was wrong, but she just didn't want to admit it. When her father was at home, he praised her, and she had the backbone of the Ge family. After my father never returned, this hard backbone became a stinky temper. No one in the family wanted to see her.

Autumn leaves and autumn flowers arrived at the Lu family.

The gate of the yard was not closed, and Grandma Lu was feeding the chickens in the yard.

"Grandma Lu." The two girls shouted in unison.

"Eh, eh." Grandma Lu's six sons, the three sons who have already married have added four grandchildren to her, and she thinks of multiple granddaughters. So, she was happy when she saw the little girl.

"Grandma Lu, is your ox cart free? The little uncle is sick and has to go to the county seat to see a doctor. ”

"Yes." Grandma Lu smiled and touched Qiuye Qiuhua's head, "I'll let your Grandpa Lu take it." ”

The oxcart was there, Ge Dongdong carried Ge Wenzhi to the oxcart, and she and Chen Suyun took Ge Wenzhi to the county.

The old woman also cried and wanted to go, but Chen Suyun persuaded her to stop her.

I didn't have time to cook the lunch at noon, so Chunhua gave her mother and the third sister six big steamed buns and a little pickles, and they would eat on the way. Of course, one is Chen Suyun's, and five are Ge Dongdong's.

The old woman said that her heart hurt and she couldn't eat. Chunhua gritted her teeth and gave the old woman an extra sugar egg, and the old woman finished eating a big bowl of sweet potato porridge.

Autumn leaves and autumn flowers ate Chinese cabbage that had not changed all winter, and swallowed violently as she looked at the sugar eggs that the old woman ate.

Ge Chunhua stuffed an egg for each of them, signaling them to go back to eat secretly, and the old woman knew that she was going to make noise again. Eggs are expensive, sugar is also expensive, and they can eat eggs, so they are happy, so they go back to the house after eating the porridge in the bowl.

Xia He knelt in the front hall for a long time, and his legs were numb. No one had come for a long time, and she listened to the noise in the kitchen, and knew that they had eaten and ignored her.

Estimating that the time was up, Xia He sat on the ground and rubbed his legs carefully.

When I went to the kitchen, everyone was scattered, and the rice and dishes were washed. Xia He felt aggrieved, and tears rolled in his eyes several times, but they didn't fall.

"Second sister!" Autumn leaves and autumn flowers came out of nowhere.

"Give. The eldest sister gave us two, we were small, and we couldn't eat. Just eat one, this one is for you. ”

Xia He accepted the eggs, but he couldn't say words of thanks in his mouth. Autumn leaves and autumn flowers knew the temperament of the second sister, gave the eggs, and went out to play.

As soon as the autumn leaves and autumn flowers left, the tears that turned a few times in Xia He's eyes finally fell.

The old woman is old, and she is not in good spirits when she makes such a fuss in the morning. Chunhua coaxed the old woman to sleep, and when she saw that the sun was still high outside, she took a needle and thread to embroider patterns.

The embroidery of spring flowers is so-so, and the embroidered handkerchief can be sold for two cents, which is better than nothing.

"Sister." Xia He entered the house.

There are not many houses at home, the old woman and Ge Wenzhi have one room, the three sisters of spring flowers, summer lotus, winter and winter have one room, and Chen Suyun has one room with autumn leaves and autumn flowers.

"Go away, go away. Don't get in my way. "Spring Flower Road.

Xia He hurriedly hid to the side.

"Sister~" Xia He's usual coquettish tone.

"What do you want to do?" Chunhua doesn't have a good airway.

"Sister, I was wrong." The sound of the last three words is not good.

"Yo, why are you willing to say those three words?" Chunhua put down the handkerchief in her hand, "Come on, come on, don't sell pity in front of me." What do you have to say to me, when the little uncle comes back, you can apologize to him. He loves you the most. ”

Xia He's eyes were red again: "Got it." ”

Chunhua didn't mention the old woman, Xia He finally turned around and met the old woman, and they would quarrel again. Don't pass this year.

The compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva, I want to bless my little uncle to be okay this time.
