No matter what, life still has to go on, food has to be eaten, and the farm work of the production team cannot be delayed. After the millet and millet are harvested, you have to cut sorghum and soybeans, then pick up potatoes and sweet potatoes, and then break the buds and rice.

One day in mid-September, the members of the club who went to the field to cut soybeans did not leave work until it was dark, and Li Guizhi was dragged back by the fifth daughter-in-law of Xue Lao next door and the daughter-in-law of Zhang Sanneck on the front street, followed by Zhou Ping, who was dumbfounded with tears on his face, and Zhou Chunxi, who was dragging his feet and hanging his head.

The two neighbors put Li Guizhi, who was soft into a puddle of mud, on the kang and hurried away. Zhou Chen, who came back together, hugged Zhou Wanwan and blinked, and Zhou Wanwan understood that their plan was completed.

It is estimated that Xue Lao's fifth daughter-in-law and Zhang San's daughter-in-law leaked the news to Li Guizhi, so they hurriedly hid now. These two people love to join in the fun and hang out the door, and they are notoriously unguarded, so it is not surprising that they poked it out late Zhou Wan.

The two of them left, and Mrs. Zhou opened her mouth: "Is this a corpse?" It's your turn to cook today, don't you know? Don't give me a dead stand, why do you expect my old bones to serve you? ”

Mrs. Zhou loves face, and she knows in her heart that if she scolds Li Guizhi like this in front of her neighbors, she will become a famous evil mother-in-law in Quantunzi, but when the Zhou family is left with her own people, she doesn't have to worry about this.

In fact, Mrs. Zhou didn't know that her reputation as a wicked mother-in-law and a wicked grandmother had already spread within a radius of dozens of miles.

Li Guizhi suddenly cried out, holding the sluggish Zhou Ping and refusing to let go, and did not react to Mrs. Zhou's scolding at all.

Zhou Chunxi finally raised his eyes and looked at Mrs. Zhou, "Mother, I have something to ask you." ”

"Dad, mother, why don't you two enter the house?" Zhou Jun shouted at Zhou Chunfa and his wife, who were hiding in the courtyard and refused to enter the house as soon as they came back, he had been standing on the ground and smiling and watching the excitement, thinking it was very interesting, and seeing that his father and mother were still outside, he asked them to come in and watch together.

Zhou Chunfa and his wife could only enter the house slowly, standing against the wall.

"Mother, has the eldest girl settled on the relationship with the Ma Pit? We also took a lot of colorful gifts? We don't know. Zhou Chunxi asked Mrs. Zhou.

"Who are you talking nonsense about? Nothing at all! Mrs. Zhou hurriedly denied it, and then attacked Li Guizhi on the kang, "Did she fight you?" I knew that she was pretending to be honest to me every day, and she didn't hold any good farts in her stomach! ”

"His second uncle, what kind of bride price are you talking about, why haven't I seen it?" Wang Fengying came to her senses as soon as she heard the bride price, and she couldn't take care of her weakness.

Zhou Ping confiscated a penny of the bride price for her change of relatives, and she didn't give a penny of the bride price to Xu Chun in Limakeng, this is the rule of the exchange of relatives, is there anything else she doesn't know? "Mother, have we accepted the bride price?" If you want to accept it, you can't pull her down, after all, there is still half of her family's Zhou Fu in it.

"Shut your foul mouth for me!" Mrs. Zhou was so angry that the flesh on her face trembled, "What kind of bride price do you receive if you are not engaged?" Did you get into the money? ”

"Loser! What nonsense! Zhou Chunfa couldn't wait to kick Wang Fengying's feet.

"Her eldest aunt, you are also a person with a daughter, you persuade our mother, you can't give my eldest girl to such a person! My eldest girl's life is going to be ruined......"

Zhou Wanwan was a little blindsided, why did Li Guizhi only focus on fixing relatives instead of changing relatives? What could not have gone wrong?

Zhou Yang and Zhou Chen were also strange, but now was not the time to discuss, the three brothers and sisters made eye contact, and they could only look at the follow-up development.

"I don't know if it's a kiss or not!" Wang Fengying pouted, and refused to admit it.

"Where did you hear that? Go home and do it without any evidence, you have a lot of skills! "Mrs. Zhou is also energetic, and she is still very sure of Li Guizhi.

"Milk, there must be no marriage, and you will know if you inquire about the confiscated bride price. Tomorrow, let my father go to find Zhao Simao and go to the ...... of the Ma Keng."

"Why are you trying to rebel? It doesn't work for me to talk, does it? Mrs. Zhou interrupted Zhou Ping's words with a snort, "You see that my dead old lady is not pleasing to the eye, strangle me!" The whole family is coming to me, I feed your family, big and small, I have raised a litter of animals! ”

As she spoke, Mrs. Zhou threw herself at Zhou Chunxi, who was squatting on the ground, "Where am I sorry for you?" I pulled you up with a handful of and urine, you had a high fever when you were five years old, and I ran ten miles to the town with you on my back to see a doctor, and my leg was about to break! Mrs. Zhou burst into tears, "You marry a daughter-in-law, I sold rations to give you a bride price, and when you marry back, you let her bully me like this!" ”

"Mother......" Zhou Chunxi was cried by Mrs. Zhou, and immediately relented, "We didn't say anything, we just asked." ”

"What do you ask?" Mrs. Zhou saw that Zhou Chunxi's attitude softened, and hurriedly took advantage of the victory to pursue, "Can I still hope that the family will be good?" I'm her step-grandmother, what's the matter? It's all born to me, why can't I be the master! ”

"Mother, it's not ......" Zhou Chunxi looked at his wife and daughter, and then at Mrs. Zhou, and didn't know what to say.

"What is not the ground! Just say that you still have me in your heart! Your daughter-in-law bullied your mother so much, can you watch from the sidelines? ”

Zhou Chunxi squatted on the ground with his head in his arms and didn't speak, Li Guizhi hugged Zhou Ping and tears flowed even more fiercely, but he couldn't make a sound when he opened his mouth.

was so stirred up by Mrs. Zhou, it seems that it is no longer important for her to marry Zhou Ping privately, and the main question now is whether Zhou Chunxi married a daughter-in-law and forgot her mother.

"I can't marry a cripple, and I can't marry a cripple when I die!" Zhou Ping suddenly jumped down from the kang and grabbed Mrs. Zhou's hand, like grasping a life-saving straw, "Milk!" Did our family accept a bride price? You go back, I will work more in the future, I will eat less, and I will give milk to the money I earn! Milk, you give him back the bride price! I can't marry a cripple! ”

"You let go! What are you doing here! Mrs. Zhou was desperately grabbed by Zhou Ping's cold hand, and felt a cold air rise behind her, so she quickly shook her off, "What are you crazy!" You're going to eat me! Top dog! Eldest daughter-in-law! Hurry up and drag the big girl away! ”

The matter of changing relatives was done by Zhou Chunfa and Wang Fengying, of course they had to stand on the side of Mrs. Zhou, and to keep Mrs. Zhou was to keep their backers, and they could handle Zhou Chunxi's family casually. So the husband and wife worked very hard to break Zhou Ping's hand and pressed her on the north kang with dragging.

"Big girl! You know something! How can you talk to your milk like that! Wang Fengying held down Zhou Ping and persuaded her with coaxing, "Don't make trouble if you are obedient, your grandmother is your own grandmother, can she still harm you?" ”

"Auntie, I can't marry a cripple!" Zhou Ping wanted to get up several times, but Wang Fengying pressed him back, and finally he could only beg Wang Fengying, "Uncle, the village has spread, my grandmother ordered me to the family in Limakeng, and received a lot of dowries, I know everything, don't hide it from me!"

Auntie, you persuade my grandmother to return the bride price, I can earn money, I won't get married in the future, can't I earn money for my family for the rest of my life! ”

"This kid! What nonsense! Do you believe the words that chew on the root of your tongue? Wang Fengying glanced at Zhou Hongying sitting on the south kang, and then coaxed Zhou Ping, "You are obedient, don't make trouble, the eldest aunt still has two feet of velvet, and the yellow flowers on the red background are beautiful, it was sent by the second mother-in-law's family, tomorrow the eldest aunt will give you a foot and let you make a pair of uppers!" ”

Before Zhou Ping could speak, Zhou Hongying from Nankang picked up a big bowl of water and threw it over. These days, she drank some rice soup, but she was so hungry that she had no strength, and the bowl fell to the ground before she threw it on Zhou Ping.

This is how it also frightened everyone, Zhou Yang subconsciously protected his younger brothers and sisters behind him, Zhou Chen hurriedly protected Zhou Wanwan's head, the brothers regretted it very much, they should not stay in the East House to see how things develop, they should go out as soon as they quarreled. This kind of messy scene, what can I do to scare my sister.

"I'm not afraid, I'm going to watch here." Zhou Wanwan immediately saw what her brothers were thinking, but she wanted to know what went wrong, why didn't anyone mention the stubble of changing relatives?

Zhou Yang had no choice, so he asked Zhou Chen to sit on the kang with his sister in his arms, and he took a bench to sit in front of them to block them, so he was a little more relieved.

Zhou Hongying threw the bowl and was still angry, and looked for something else on the kang to throw it, Mrs. Zhou hurriedly went over to coax her, and scolded Wang Fengying: "You loser girl!" What should you promise! That upper is reserved for Yingzi, you dare to try it for others! ”

At this time, Wang Fengying didn't dare to offend Mrs. Zhou, in the final analysis, Mrs. Zhou's change of parents was also for her son.

"Her second aunt," Wang Fengying saw that Zhou Ping was no longer struggling, and went to persuade Li Guizhi again, "We are other people's daughters-in-law, we can't be filial to the elderly, this is a thing that makes the whole tunzi poke the backbone, the girl has to marry sooner or later, and it is not worth it to get a reputation of not being virtuous and unfilial for a girl!"

The good days of our family are all ahead, and the leaders of the hometown have said that in the autumn, Dale and his father will be promoted to the township, and that is the cadre who eats and supplies food! Erya remarried to the Xu family, what kind of life did the Xu family have? Leak something between your fingers to help us, and our family will be able to live a lot better!

You have thought clearly, for the sake of a worthless girl to offend your mother, there will be nothing to do with your family in a good life! ”

Li Guizhi hugged Zhou Ping, who had a dull expression, and cried out, "My poor Erya......"

This is a silent compromise......

The three siblings returned to Westinghouse and did not speak for a while. Zhou Chen hugged Zhou Wanwan and didn't let go, Zhou Yang took the initiative to burn the kang quilt, and made water to wash his younger brothers and sisters, until he lay down in the quilt, Zhou Chen still hugged his sister tightly, Zhou Wanwan couldn't guess the second brother's idea for the first time, so he could only let him hold it obediently.

"When we grow up, we'll separate it out, and no one wants to meddle in her affairs!" Zhou Chen thought about it for a long time, and said to Zhou Yang in a low but firm voice.

"We're not afraid! At that time, we were both older, who would dare to bully us? Besides," the generous Zhou Yang said sarcastically when he mentioned the Zhou family for the first time, "We don't want a good reputation, and we don't want to live a good life with anyone, what are we afraid of?" ”

"I want to live a good life and earn it myself! It's not useful to rely on anyone else! Zhou Chen was convinced of this, "I don't think the second aunt really cares about the eldest sister, so she sold her for her own good reputation and good life." ”

"She is also thinking about the second uncle and the sixth girl." Zhou Yang can always understand others more.

"Confused! I haven't had a good life yet, but the eldest aunt can sell the eldest sister, what good life can they have in the future? Then, Zhou Chen remembered today's doubts, "The news that I asked Zhao Dazhuang to release was that the grandmother and the eldest aunt exchanged the eldest sister for a marriage, why did the second aunt hear that it was a marriage for the eldest sister, and she also received a lot of dowry?" ”

"I'll inquire again tomorrow. Now it's useless to say this, the second aunt and the second uncle have recognized it, what else can we say. Zhou Yang sighed and said, in fact, he wanted to help Zhou Ping from the time he heard about it, but looking at today's form, Zhou Chunxi and his wife have compromised, and what their brothers do is useless.

"Each has his own life, if you don't fight for yourself, what tricks do others have!" Zhou Chen was also sad about Zhou Chunxi's family, and he was angry, "I just thought, who dares to do this to us, I have to fight with him!" How can the second uncle and the second uncle endure it! ”

Zhou Yang sighed deeply again, he also couldn't understand, watching his daughter being pushed into the fire pit, how could Zhou Chunxi and his wife recognize it?

Zhou Wanwan listened to the conversation between the brothers and smiled sarcastically at herself in the bed. See, put away your useless sympathy and be nosy in the future, the second brother is too right, she has a personal life, she is not angry, what tricks do others have?

Early the next morning, Zhou Wanwan was awakened by a sharp and miserable wail. She sat up from the quilt suddenly, and then, several desperate howls came from the back garden of Zhou's house in a row, and before Zhou Wanwan could recover from the shock, Zhou Chen ran in.

Zhou Chen hurriedly got on the kang, and even brought the quilt to hold Zhou Wanwan in his arms, "Don't be afraid, the second brother is here, the second brother is with you, we are not afraid of anything......" Zhou Chen patted and coaxed, repeating these words in his mouth.

Zhou Wanwan wasn't too scared, but she was a little stunned when she was suddenly woken up from her sleep, and before she could answer Zhou Chen, Zhou Yang also rushed in, still holding a broom to sweep the yard in his hand.

"I'm not afraid! I want to pee! Zhou Wanwan knew that at this time, she said that it was better to behave normally than to calm the hearts of her brothers.

The Zhou Yang brothers hurriedly dressed their sister in clothes and shoes, and kept teasing her to talk, seeing that she was normal, they put their minds at ease and carried her to the toilet.

As soon as I walked out of the West House, I saw Zhou Chunxi and Zhou Chunliang carrying Zhou Ping in hurriedly from outside. Wang Fengying, who was followed by a pair of hands, was still shouting: "Why do you say that if you hang yourself, you will hang yourself!" This is all engaged, how can I explain to the old Chen family if I am going to die! ”

"Let her die! What are you doing to save her! I think she's going to die! She's just a demon, who to scare! Mrs. Zhou sat on the kang head of the east house screaming and scolding, I heard that Zhou Ping hanged herself, she didn't even go to the ground, if she was scared, would she be able to live this life in the future?

The Zhou Yang brothers were also stunned when they saw Zhou Ping, whose eyes were closed tightly and his hair was messy, lifting him over. The first thing Zhou Chen did when he reacted was to cover Zhou Wanwan's eyes, but Zhou Wanwan had already turned around and lay on his shoulder one step ahead of him. (To be continued.) )
