Chapter 16: Memories (2)
Say it, say it? A shallow smile smiled, this smile was indescribably bitter. Is it necessary to say what everyone agrees on?
"Mai Trin, you believe everything your uncle says." Lin Jianjun came to Qianxiao's side and patted her on the shoulder, "Say bravely, don't be afraid." β
"Uncle, don't make trouble next to you. Everyone is for Mai Trin's good, the child is still young, and if something happens, he can still teach, and when he is older, he can't regret it when he can't teach it. Li Ju pouted: "The family is not rich, this is a hundred yuan." With so many people eating, it is inevitable that there will be contradictions, and things must always be laid out to figure out, or the family will be dispersed. β
"Your sister-in-law is right, the big family can't avoid bumps and bumps, if something is spread out, make it clear and make it clear, and everyone will not have a pimple in their hearts." After Lin Jianhua finished training Lin Jianjun, he turned his head and said to Li Ju: "The matter has not been clarified yet, don't conclude that it is Meiqin's fault, you also work in the judicial department, I don't know that this will become an unjust, false and wrongful case." β
"I'm also kind..... Li Ju's voice gradually lowered, and finally shut up unwillingly.
Lin Jianhua turned his head and said, "Meiqin, you have understood the general matter now, tell me your opinion." We are all your relatives for the sake of hello, have you ever taken the money to sue everyone for a clear answer. β
"Nope." Qianxiao's face was not good, but he still replied firmly: "Don't say that a hundred yuan is so much, I usually can't even see a dime." Did grandma misplace and forget it? β
"You say I wronged you? I'm your grandmother, what did I do wronging you. Besides, it's a hundred yuan, not a small amount, I don't know where to put it? Grandma Wang Lianmei glared and smiled, looking angry: "You often have money in your pocket during this time, I asked your mother today." She said she didn't give it to you, where did you get your money? He also said that he didn't take it, but I think you took it. β
"What to take, that's stealing." The second aunt sneered: "This is definitely not the first time, I am getting bolder and bolder, and the more money I steal, the more I steal." No wonder, I've been getting old lately, I can't tellβ"
"Mom, you can't get used to this, something big is going to happen. Mi'er, it is said that my sister-in-law is not easy to intervene, but Meiqin's behavior will go to prison in the future. I'm also good for you, you can't be distressed and not be ruthless once, how did you get it when you grow up. Besides, you have to be laughed at by Chen Bangguo. β
Chen Bangguo's three words hit Lin Mier's nerves at once, and he no longer listened to the light smile's defense, and regardless of the persuasion of his aunt and uncle, he pulled the light smile who was still thinking about how to explain things clearly, entered the room, and closed the door.
It was an unforgettable day for a light smile. was locked in the room by his mother, took off his pants, and beat him hard with a long ruler that made clothes, and the light smile opened the flesh, the whole body was black, the ruler was broken into three sections, and the light smile rolled from the bed to the ground, and drilled from the ground to the bottom of the bed. In the end, it was my mother who hugged the light smile that could no longer move and cried loudly.
Soon my grandmother's money was found in the rat's nest, and it was she who put the money and the pastries together, and the rats were attracted to fight for them, and the pastries were gone, and the money became small pieces of paper.
Mom regretted it unspeakably when she found out, so she just took her smile back to school to live with her and compensated for the food, but she didn't say a word of apology.
That light smile lay in bed for a whole week, and the injuries on his body improved, and after a month, the bruises all over his body subsided, and the outer skin was changed. Peeling off that layer of epidermis, the skin is a little better, becoming pink and jade, fairer and smoother, and smiling and joking that he has changed his skin like a snake.
There are gains and losses, although I go back to my own home, I don't have to look at the eyes to eat, and I don't have to be low, but the price is too great.
Thinking of this, Xiaoxiao felt that her whole body still hurt. This time, I must convince my mother to give up on the wrong decision. "Mom, let's buy something and go to grandma's house, so that we won't be told by my aunt to eat white food if we have face."
"Don't talk nonsense, what to eat white food, we come to my mother every summer vacation to pay for food. Besides, your aunt is not that stingy person. Lin Mier didn't believe it, her family came back for a month during the summer vacation, and paid 50 yuan for dinner every time, which was almost a month's salary.
"How can I talk nonsense, if you don't believe it, ask my sister."
"Mom, my little sister didn't lie, and I don't like the people in my grandmother's house. Every time the second aunt and the younger aunt come, they will say that we are here to get oil, and ask my cousin not to play with the country girl, saying that the grade will be lowered. My aunt wouldn't talk about us to our faces, but she often told my grandmother that we were white wolves with empty gloves. Mom, is it bad to have empty gloves for a white wolf? The beautiful voice whispered about her dissatisfaction.
Lin Mier didn't expect that her mother's family would have a lot of opinions, she only thought that things in the countryside were not as rich as in the city, and she didn't necessarily like it if she bought it, so it was better to give money to let her parents buy something she liked, that is, she would fulfill her filial piety and not make it difficult for her parents to do it at her sister-in-law. Now it seems......
"Today, my mother will listen to your sisters, and she will not be empty-handed. Now let's go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy things first. You are in charge of what you buy, okay? β
"Really? Mom has to talk about it. The two sisters asked in unison.
"Seriously."
Xiaoxiao and Meiyin chatted about what to buy as they walked.
At that time, the supply and marketing cooperatives were not like today's supermarkets, where you could freely choose what you wanted to buy with a basket.
The supply and marketing cooperative, located in the center of West Avenue, was the most lively street at that time. The supply and marketing cooperatives were a bungalow, 200 square meters in size, which was quite large at the time. The house is very well lit, and when you walk in, you can see the layout inside at a glance. One counter is divided into one counter, and the contents of each counter are also clearly arranged, so that the people who see it can see it at a glance. Of course, the people standing at the counter were arrogant and proud, after all, those who could enter the supply and marketing cooperatives had a backstage.
After discussing with Meiyin, Xiaoxiao and Lin Mier finally decided: a pound of white sugar, a pound of brown sugar, a piece of gray silk cloth, a piece of white cotton cloth, plus a pound of pork, a grass carp and a pastry bought for Lin Yuanda.
All in all, it cost more than 10 yuan, and each person had no empty hands. Light smile is very satisfied, so many things hope to have a good start this time.
"Mom, we bought so many things for my grandmother's house and spent a lot of money, and my sister and I won't spend money again in the future. Mom, don't worry, the summer vacation is very long, my sister and I will see what we can make when we get there, and we will compensate for today's losses. β
The smiling oath made Lin Mi'er smile dumbly, looked at the child's serious face, and smiled: "Okay." Mom is waiting for you and your sister to make money to buy delicious food for Mom. After saying that, he seriously considered his behavior of planning to give money quietly, thought of his daughter's words, and the difficulties he was facing now, and looked at his thin and malnourished daughter, and secretly decided in his heart: I will not give money secretly in the future, and buy things openly, even if I can see it, I will not dislike it. If you have money, you still keep it for your daughter's body.
"Mom and Dad, I'm coming to see you."
"Grandparents, my sister and mother and I came to see you. I also bought a lot of things for you. Light smile began to shout at the door.
My grandmother's house was in a small alley on East Street, a small courtyard house surrounded by several houses. There are no walls, but there is a gate on the perimeter, and there is a patio formed by an open space at the back door of the house, and in the summer evenings families come out to sit in the patio.
Li Ju came out with a smile on her face and took the things in her hand, and said, "I just came, I made dumplings to eat at home today, and you will have to eat here later." Mikoto and Miyin, you will let go of your stomach and eat, today my aunt made a big basin trap. β
Meiyin nodded: "Got it, auntie." My sister and I will wash our hands and help out. β
Qianxiao also hurriedly nodded: "Auntie, the dumplings I made are beautiful." "I thought, the treatment is different when I bring a bunch of things over, it seems that I have to blow the wind in front of my mother often in the future, and I can't do stupid things.
It was rare for my grandmother to smile at the two of them when she entered the room, and acquiesced to the words of the eldest aunt and agreed that they would eat here. did not embarrass Lin Mier because of the divorce, and said kindly with her: "I didn't agree before because Chen Bangguo was disloyal, but now you have a deep understanding of it, do you agree with my words?" If you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer in front of you. Now that you are divorced, you have a job and take care of your children, and your life will be fine. β
Lin Mi'er burst into tears when she said this, and she could only say when she choked up: "Mom...... Mom......"
However, this scene made the shallow smile creepy, is it the grandmother's transformation or ...... It didn't take long for a light smile to know the answer: it was the credit of the eldest uncle.
Either way, it's always exciting to have a start.
