Chapter Twenty-Five: Encountering Lightness
"His grandmother's, this ghost weather, it's hot to death!" Yinglan's father came back under the scorching sun.
"Dad, why did you come back at this time?" Liu Yinglan asked.
Yinglan's father glared and said, "Do you think Lao Tzu likes to come back at this time?" If it weren't for the lack of money, Lao Tzu would come back to find death with that ghost sun? I won't pour wine for you. He sat down on the stool, his feet crackled on the table, and he shook his clothes vigorously.
"Oh." Yinglan agreed and went to get the wine jug out, poured a bowl of wine, and handed it to her father.
"Susu." Yinglan's father glanced at his goddaughter with the rest of his eyes.
"Yes, godfather." Yu Qiusu picked up the pu fan on the stool and came over to fan his godfather.
When the wine arrived, Yinglan's father glanced at Yinglan's mother, who was standing on the side, and said, "Why don't you get some snacks for Lao Tzu?" It's really a disappointment to put on a sick and disgraced look all day long! Then he put his legs down, half-lay down on the chair, cocked Erlang's legs, took a sip of wine and a small song, and was so happy. After a while, he said: "Susu, how many are there around you?" I will take it out later, and my godfather will go out when the sun goes down, and then go to Qin Lao'er to gamble in the evening. ”
"Dad," Liu Yinglan on the side whispered, "The money from the embroidery village hasn't been paid to us yet, where will the money come from for you today." ”
Yinglan's father slammed the wine bowl on the table with a "snap", turned his head and glared at his daughter, "Dead girl!" You can't get along with your old man, don't you? Lao Tzu rushed back in a daze, and you just played tricks on Lao Tzu and said that there was no money, right? ”
Liu Yinglan said aggrievedly: "Dad, I didn't cheat, what I said is true." ”
"Yes, godfather," Yu Qiusu also said, "The money from the embroidery village has not been given to us yet, and there is really no money around." ”
Yinglan's mother was taking the snacks and dishes out, she put the dishes on the table and said, "Her father, now that the girls are older, we, as parents, have to save some money, and when they get married, we have to prepare some dowries for them." Her father, for the sake of the child, you will gamble less in the future......"
"Stinky bitch!" Before Yinglan's mother finished speaking, she was slapped by her husband, her body shook, she fell to the ground, and blood flowed from her nose.
"Mother!" "Godmother!" Liu Yinglan and Yu Qiusu hurriedly ran over to help each other.
"Stinky bitch! Did you eat the ambition leopard guts today? Dare to block Lao Tzu's financial path! Grandma's! If you don't kill you today, it's not over! Yinglan's father scolded non-stop, rushed to the three of them in a few steps, overturned the two daughters, and smashed his wife's face with a heavy old fist, smashing her to the ground.
"Dad, don't fight anymore, Dad, I beg you, don't beat ...... again" Liu Yinglan hugged her father's leg and begged bitterly.
Yu Qiusu also panicked, and rushed to the godmother's side and said, "Godfather, don't fight, the godmother is not in good health, but she can't stand the beating." ”
"Whoever blocks Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will beat whom?" After a few feet, Yu Qiusu was hit a few times.
Liu Yinglan cried and said: "Dad, Su Su and I will ask for the money from the embroidery village tomorrow, and we will give it to my father as soon as we take it." Dad, don't fight anymore......"
"His grandmother's!" Yinglan's father turned around and looked around, took out a few copper plates from under the bed, turned around and kicked Yinglan's mother, and said to the two daughters, "His grandmother's!" Tomorrow, you two stinky girls will get the money and send it directly to Qin Lao Er! Otherwise, don't blame Lao Tzu for selling you all one by one! After speaking, he added another kick to Yinglan's mother's body, and continued to drink.
Drunk, he broke into the bedroom again, opened his voice and said, "You two dead girls have memorized!" Lao Tzu will go to Qin Laoer's house to drink tonight, and you will send the money over tomorrow! He staggered out the door and cursed.
The next day, Yu Qiusu and Liu Yinglan got some silver taels from Xiuzhuang and rushed to Qin Laoer's residence.
Pushing the door in, I saw my father, Qin Lao Er and the other three people shouting to compete for drinking power.
"Daddy." "Godfather."
"Well, the silver was brought, right?" Yinglan's father said angrily.
Liu Yinglan handed the money bag in her hand to her father, and Ni Ying on the side saw it, touched Yinglan's hand and said: "Third child, I didn't expect you to look like a deflated child, and the daughters you gave birth to are more beautiful than the other, hehe......" Ni Ying's eyes wandered around Liu Yinglan and Yu Qiusu, smiling obscenely.
Liu Yinglan was lightened by her and blushed. Yu Qiusu frowned, daring to be angry but not daring to speak for a while.
Yinglan's father smiled: "What's the use of being good-looking, it's useful to earn money for me!" Come on, come on, leave them alone, let's drink! ”
Ni Ying stood up and said, "Is it useful, how can you know if you don't take a closer look?" I'm here to help you take a look at it today. As he spoke, the person had approached Qiu Su's side and reached out to touch her face.
Yu Qiusu saw his extremely obscene face, and hated it to the extreme, and raised his hand to knock off his dirty hands.
"Hey...... Third, your daughter is so ruthless! However, I like this, this is called emotional......" A pair of hands suddenly clasped Yu Qiusu's shoulders, stretched out his mouth and kissed it.
Yu Qiusu was shocked, pushed hard with both hands, and shouted "godfather...... Yinglan! ”
"Let it go!" Liu Yinglan went up to clear the siege, but the man grabbed her arm with her backhand and said, "Okay, it's more enjoyable for the two to go together......"
Yinglan's father was dumbfounded, and didn't say a word, but Qin Lao Er on the side said: "Okay, Ni Ying, why do you think about this kind of!" ”
Yu Qiusu took advantage of the looseness of his hand, pushed him away fiercely, slapped him angrily, and scolded: "Shameless! ”
Ni Ying's face hurt hotly, and she glared at Yu Qiusu angrily and said, "Little slut, you dare to hit me?" ”
Yu Qiusu glared at him fiercely, grabbed Liu Yinglan's hand, and left as if she had fled.
Ni Ying turned her head and glared, pointed at Yinglan's father and said, "Okay, you Liu San, the daughter you raised actually dares to beat me!" Don't let me see them again! After saying that, he left in a rage.
"Hey, brother Ni......" Yinglan's father saw him angry at himself, and was annoyed at his back.
Yu Qiusu and Liu Yinglan ran out of breath and said, "Susu, that person just now was too hateful!" ”
Yu Qiusu also gritted his teeth and said: "This kind of person is really shameless!" ”
Unexpectedly, that night, Yinglan's father came home, stretched out his hand and came up to beat someone: "You two stinky girls!" Today, I have to kill you! Yu Qiusu and the two were so frightened that they didn't dare to move.
Seeing this, Yinglan's mother hurriedly went to pull her husband and said, "Her father, what happened?" ”
Yinglan's father knocked down his wife and scolded his two daughters: "Stinky girl! Do you know who you offended today? That's the living Hades of Ruyifang! He is Lao Tzu's grandfather who is the God of Wealth, you two dead girls dare to offend him! ”
Yu Qiusu defended: "Godfather, if he is not frivolous and rude, we don't dare to offend him." ”
"Dare to talk back to you......" Yinglan's father stretched out his hand and slapped Yu Qiusu on the head, which made Yu Qiusu stumble, holding on to the stool, with gold stars in his eyes.
"Her father," Yinglan's mother grabbed her husband and said, "Don't beat the children, blame me, blame me for not being good, it's me who didn't discipline them well, if you want to beat me!" ”
Yu Qiusu and Liu Yinglan protected their mother and said, "Mother." "Godmother, it's none of your business."
"That's a good point! It's all you, a, who can't discipline you, see if Lao Tzu doesn't beat you to death! Pushing his daughter away, Yinglan's father punched and kicked his wife, and did not stop until the two daughters hugged him desperately. He slammed them down, knocked them to the ground, and went out the door with hatred.
Yinglan's mother coughed again after this toss, and Yu Qiusu and the two hurriedly helped her to lie down on the couch, handed a hand towel, and brought water to relieve the symptoms.
Finally, her mother fell asleep, and Liu Yinglan sobbed in a low voice: "My mother is so pitiful, the old wound has not healed, and now there is a new wound ......" She hid her face and cried, unable to say any more.
Yu Qiusu also had red eyes and sat dumbfounded, no longer knowing what words to put to comfort.
