"Mom, isn't it okay for us to go to Grandma's house empty-handed?"

Qianxiao deliberately provoked this topic, in fact, she knew that her mother in the previous life lived in her grandmother's house after returning to the city with her, and her mother didn't go back to school until the beginning of the school year. At that time, the residents had 50 catties of food stamps, 20 catties of soybean stamps and 20 catties of oil stamps every month, and the children of residents had 20 catties of food stamps, 8 catties of soybeans and 8 catties of oil stamps every month. These are firmly in the hands of my grandmother, and I only gave my mother ten catties of food stamps, five catties of soybean stamps and five catties of oil stamps. In addition to these, it does not include the money that my mother secretly stuffed to my grandmother during the New Year's holidays.

The things were taken, the money was collected, but the words were not half good. My grandmother either didn't think she had enough money, or she complained to her mother: "Mai Koto is growing up now, and she eats a lot and fiercely." It's really half a son starving to death. The current school is the same, today you either have to pay this fee and that fee, or tomorrow you have to buy books and books, and this money is spent like running water. Your sister-in-law has been in front of me several times, I always think that Mai Trin is my granddaughter, why should I care about a little profit, how good is the harmony of the family, honey, do you say no? ”

I can't remember very clearly how my mother replied at that time, but she complained that she had no vision, and now she is still in a dilemma for the old mother. Then he had to grit his teeth and give the money he had saved so hard with both hands.

Xiaoxiao and sometimes wonder if the relationship between himself and his mother in the previous life has been tepid, whether there is also a factor of his grandmother's family.

Thinking of that unbearable past, a shallow smile can really wipe a handful of bitter tears and spit out a period of bitter water.

My grandfather and grandmother are retired workers in a food factory, and they have seven children, namely the eldest son Lin Jianhua, who was assigned to the county government office after retiring from the army, and has now just been promoted to director of the Planning Commission (Chen Bangguo doesn't know about this, otherwise he wouldn't have divorced); The eldest daughter, Lin Mier, is a middle school teacher; The second son, Lin Jianguo, was a doctor in the hospital, but he died inexplicably during a night shift three years ago, and the cause of death was unknown; the second daughter, Lin Miduo, an ordinary employee of a pharmaceutical company; the third daughter, Lin Miyun, a cashier at a vocational and technical school; The youngest daughter, Lin Mina, replaced her parents and went to work as a worker in a food factory (this was originally meant to be left to her uncle); The youngest son, Lin Jianjun, is still a high school student.

At that time, my grandfather and grandmother, who could not read a single word, sent all the children of the family to school and trained them to become talents, which was a very remarkable thing. Therefore, the children of the family are very filial and obedient. In addition, my grandfather is a son-in-law who is inverted and has no right to speak at home, so I slowly develop my grandmother's character of being arbitrary and unambiguous.

Of course, it's not the same, so things are constant. After the uncle married his wife, the family has slowly changed.

The original aunt is not the current aunt, the uncle has a childhood girlfriend, and the two families are still a little distant. The year when my uncle was a soldier, I don't know who my grandmother heard that the woman's eight characters were not good, and she didn't agree, and when my uncle came back from visiting relatives, she had already decided on the current aunt Li Ju.

Li Ju is a native of Liusha Town on the edge of the county seat, has studied for a few years, and her family is arranged in the Township Women's Federation. I heard my aunt at home say that Li Ju was small and low when she first got married, and she liked it very much in the family, and later gave birth to her cousin Lin Yuanda, and slowly revealed her true nature. Coupled with the support of her grandmother, her uncle also felt a little guilty and indulged her over the years, and his career rose to the deputy director of the Justice Bureau. This is terrible, being a prestige at home, and I can't see that my uncle and sister-in-law are living better than her.

Grandma has a patriarchal mentality with her father Chen Bangguo. In her previous life, she lived at her grandmother's house and did the first thing she got up every morning: pouring a spittoon. Next, go to the coal stove (no need to cook, I don't like it), and wash the dishes after eating. Come back from school in the afternoon to do laundry and sweep the floor. On Sunday, there will be a big hygiene. In this way, day after day, I have worked day by day, and I have never eaten a piece of meat or a fish at my grandmother's house.

Grandma chattered a sentence on her lips: "This is reserved for my precious grandson." ”

Cousin Lin Yuanda is three years older than Xiaoxiao and is a pampered boy. The light smile in the countryside is very unpleasant.,From time to time to bully.,Teasing it.。

Aunt Lin Mina occasionally brings some pastries back from the factory, but grandma can't wait to take them away, don't say taste it, and don't let a light smile see it. Sneakily hiding in the closet, every time I quietly take a piece and stuff it into my cousin's mouth,。 I thought I was doing it very strictly, but in fact, I knew it, not only did I know it, but everyone who lived at home knew it, except for Lin Mier. Uncle Big and Minor would say a word or two, and the others didn't seem to see it.

At the beginning, he was greedy, and he was punished by his grandmother for not eating for a day, and he never asked for it again. But Lin Yuanda will deliberately come to ** and smile lightly: "Country puppet (dialect: hillbilly. This is the name of the light smile in the grandmother's house, not in front of the two brothers Lin Mier and Lin Jianhua), what is this today, it is so fragrant and delicious. Well, it tastes good, glutinous and chewy, with a mint flavor, why is it so delicious! ”

Seeing a light smile, I couldn't help but have my eyes glow, and my mouth was swallowing saliva slightly. Lin Yuanda would stretch out the pastry in front of a light smile, "Give you a taste." Qianxiao, who didn't know before, would really pick it up, but before she could taste it, what she was waiting for was Lin Yuanda, who brought her grandmother to complain: "Grandma, you see that she actually robbed me of something." I was reluctant to eat it myself, and wanted to give it to you to taste, but she, the puppet, snatched it from my hand without saying a word. ”

In exchange for a beating. Later, he smiled lightly, and Lin Yuanda tried many times to no avail, so he had to say: "It's boring." ”

These things were not told by Lin Mier, but they were just responsible for themselves. Lin Mier always thought that Xiaoxiao was living well at her grandmother's house. If it weren't for the outbreak of the 'thief incident', Lin Mier would still be in the dark, and it would be impossible for her to smile and would rather have a long way to go, get up early and walk a little longer to go home.

It was a little late for Xiaoxiao to come back to her grandmother's house from school that day, but the people at home didn't say anything, even her mother, who would only come back on Sunday. Everyone sat together, very quiet, but the atmosphere was a little strict and heavy.

The cousin smiled wickedly at the light smile that had just stepped into the room, and his eyes were full of sarcasm.

"Mom, are you coming back to see me today?" Light smile is very happy, seeing that the mother who has not seen her for many days is a little attached and has a lot to say to her.

"Mai Trin, you're back. Come on, everyone has something to ask you. "It was my grandfather, who had always been silent, who spoke.

"Okay, if you have something to say, you can understand things while sitting here without talking." Lin Jianjun was a little impatient, he called the eldest sister back without understanding the matter, and put on this posture, isn't it that the eldest sister is weak and easy to bully. "I believe that Mai Trin will not do this, she has not been here for a day or two, if something happens, it will happen a long time ago, and it will be until now."

"I can't say that, I didn't take it before, it doesn't necessarily mean that I don't take it. Maybe it was because I didn't know where my mother put the money before. Li Ju said in a weird manner: "Calling Mi'er back is also to figure things out in front of her, don't feel that the mother's family treats Meiqin badly." Otherwise, my sister-in-law will not please her to help her discipline her daughter. ”

"No, no." Lin Mier is still dizzy, it's not that she doesn't believe her daughter, but her mother's words are conclusive, and there is evidence, so Lin Mier has to believe it. "Meiqin, grandma's room is missing a hundred yuan, have you picked it up?"

The face of the light smile suddenly turned red, it was not shame, it was anger. It turned out that he was a thief and called his mother back, was he going to have a three-class trial? He has already convicted himself of a crime without evidence. And mom, don't you believe in yourself too?

A light smile stared at Lin Mi'er: "Mom, you don't believe me either?" ”

"No, no." Lin Mi'er was stared at in panic by a shallow smile, and said a little unnaturally: "How could I, I just...... People don't believe it..... You tell me what you know. ”
