137 Turning over containers (supplement)
Faced with such an urgent need for help, how could the Jia family, who now boasted of being a scholarly family of benevolence, bear to turn the two away, and immediately ordered Xiaoli and Yunying to clean up the room.
Jia's meaning was to let Gu Banniang and Yun Ying live in the same room, and Qiao Mutou would live in the utility room if he was wronged.
It's just that as soon as these words came out, Yun Ying's reluctance had not yet been spoken, and Gu Banniang had already sighed: "Mother-in-law, I went to see Yun Ying's house just now, how can I live with Yuanchang's mother and son, besides, I can't sleep in this storm, instead of living in her room so that young people can't sleep together, it's better for me to change with Xiaoli and live in a room with you, and we can also chat and talk." β
There are a total of four rooms in the main house of the Guan family, although Guan Ping's room is large, but he has to read a book at night, and a rough person like Qiao Mutou can't live in anything. The layout of the partial room and the study room where Yun Ying lives on the left and right sides is the same, Yun Ying's house is indeed a little small, the one made back then is not big, sleeping Yun Ying and a child can still be settled, and adding a pregnant Gu Banniang is indeed a little reluctant.
And the main house occupied by the Jia family is the main house, which can easily fit two large chuangs, and now she lives in one, a few days ago Xiao Li came to the house and added a wooden chuang, and Gu Banniang came to the house as an elder, if there is no extra room, it is indeed necessary to live with the Jia family, the head of the family.
Gu Banniang opened her mouth, and Jia, who was not easy to shirk, had to stiffen her face and respond. Can it not? Gu Banniang's words were full of reproaches, as if Yun Ying had suffered some grievances in the Guan family. Although Jia Shi always gave Yun Ying grievances. But she will never tolerate someone accusing her in front of her.
As a result, the rainy night of the Guan family was extremely lively. The arrival of the three members of Qiao Mutou's family also interrupted Xiaoli and Xiaoma's plan to join forces to sue Yunying in front of Jia.
This storm has been gone since it came, but this time, it seemed to be tireless. Early the next morning, Qiao Mutou looked at his three rooms by the river in a heavy rain, but the sight almost made him fall to the ground on the spot. The yellow-brown water had risen to the beach, drowning the corn on the sand, and the water line was still rising, and he saw that almost all three of his houses were submerged in water.
"My mother, how am I going to live this day......" Just when Qiao Mu was in a daze. In my ears, I suddenly remembered Gu Banniang's sharp howl. turned her head to see that Gu Banniang had already thrown away the oil-paper umbrella and fell to the ground, crying and grabbing the ground.
How does this work? She's got one in her belly! Qiao Mutou had no choice but to wipe the sweat, rain or tears on his face, turned around and dragged Gu Banniang up, and found that she was soaked from head to toe. Shocked. Hurriedly carried her back to Guan's house.
Yun Ying was taking Yuanchang to play in the house. Hearing a commotion outside, he hurriedly opened the door and walked out.
At this time, Gu Banniang was sitting on the edge of the porch and crying. Qiao Mutou squatted to the side, holding his head and slamming it against the wall.
"What's going on?" Jia Shi also came out of the main room, and as soon as Xiao Li reported that Gu Banniang took an oilpaper umbrella and went out, she felt that something was wrong, who knows how old it was, and heard her ghost crying wolf howl again.
Xiao Ma was at the door just now to pick up Qiao Mutou and his wife, and when he saw that the couple was already crying and the other was dumbfounded, he couldn't answer, so he had to answer on his behalf: "Master Qiao and Mrs. Qiao went to see their house just now, and they have been like this since they came back." β
"It's gone, there's nothing, there's food." Gu Banniang repeated these words in a daze, and sometimes beat her stomach frantically: "I'll beat you to death, why are you still born?" It's also a hardship to have no food or clothing......"
"Banniang, don't look like this...... it's good if the rain stops, the heavy rain can stop today, let's go home when it stops." Qiao Mutou only knew that he would hold Gu Banniang to prevent her from harming herself, but he couldn't say a reliable guarantee, and he was also full of confusion about the days ahead.
Yuanchang, who was taken by Yunying's side, had already rushed over and hugged his father and mother, crying in the dark.
Rao is Yunying has no feelings for this family, and she is also a little uncomfortable. Qiao Mutou and Gu Banniang saw that life had been better in the past two years, not to mention being rich and expensive, at least they didn't have to worry about food and clothing, but as soon as this heavy rain came, it was still a question mark whether the house could be saved, and the corn in the sand was gone. Qiao Mutou said it well, but this heavy rain can be stopped if it is stopped.
During the whole day, no one was in the mood to eat, and Gu Banniang was tired of crying and was sent to Jia's house to rest. There is nothing to do left and right, Jia Shi doesn't want to stay in the room to do embroidery work, it is not easy to be caught by Gu Banniang and cry later, last night she learned the power of Gu Banniang's fatigue bombardment, today Gu Banniang must have held back a lot of anger in her heart, Jia Shi said that she didn't want to get along with her.
So, very rarely, Jia Shi opened his mouth and offered to help Yun Ying with the chili peppers.
In previous years, some of the chili peppers were left to eat at home, and the others would choose some good grades and cut off half of the green with scissors and send them to Zhenweiju to be weighed, but this year, it ......
Yun Ying glanced at the peppers that were less than three hundred catties on the floor of the utility room, and sighed silently in her heart, this year's peppers are kept for your own use, and they can't sell much. Since the Jia family took the initiative to help, Yun Ying did not refuse, it was just right for someone to help, saving the trouble of the third aunt's family.
It still takes some time to pack up more than 300 catties of chili peppers, and the time of a day's delay will pass smoothly. In the evening, the rain still didn't stop, Qiao Mutou and Gu Banniang went out to see again, and when they came back, their whole face was almost buried in their chests, although Gu Banniang's eyes were red, but they looked like they had seen it open, and they ate two large bowls of white rice in a big gulp at night, and the corners of Yun Ying's mouth twitched in distress.
"Yunying, this kid Yuanchang was arguing with you last night, let him sleep with your father tonight." Putting down the bowl, Gu Banniang said suddenly.
Qiao Mutou raised his head, opened his mouth and lowered his head before he could speak.
Yun Ying couldn't help but sneer at Gu Banniang, why did she suddenly get better? Yuanchang couldn't stop crying last night, for fear of arguing with Jia's family, Yun Ying said to let Qiao Mutou take him to sleep in the utility room. It was also Gu Banniang who said that the utility room was messy and afraid that Yuanchang would not sleep well, so he squeezed it with himself, making Xiaoli who was sleeping on the recliner on the side toss and turn over all night, and when she got up in the morning, she pouted as if someone owed her a lot.
Sure enough, hearing Gu Banniang's words, Xiao Li was the first to agree, revealing the first sincere smile in two days: "Mrs. in-law, come, I'll help you serve a bowl of rice again." β
"Enough is enough, thank you Miss Pear." It's the same as everyone in Lijia Village. Gu Banniang was in awe of the maid from the city. I always feel that people's every move is more magnificent than anyone in the countryside.
It was another night of continuous rain, and Yun Ying was woken up by Jia's calling voice. As far as I can remember, Jia has always been calm and serious, and he has never shouted so loudly. was so frightened that Yun Ying and Xiao Li hurriedly put on their coats. Rushed out of the room barefoot. That's when I found out. Guan Ping and Pony weren't much better, and the four of them looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.
"Mother. What happened to you? Thinking that there was a difference between men and women, and that there was a Gu Banniang in the house, Guan Ping first stopped his steps and blocked in front of Jia's closed door.
At this moment, Jia's door was opened from the inside, and Jia's clothes were already neatly dressed, but her hair was messy, and the cloth shoes she wore backwards under her feet also revealed her panic.
"Yun Ying, what about your father and your aunt?" The sharp eyes swept over the faces of the four people at the door one by one, and Jia's eyes stopped on Yun Ying's face.
Yes, this noise, Gu Banniang, who should be in Jia's room, and Qiao Mutou's father and son in the utility room are nowhere to be seen. Yun Ying had a hint of foreboding in her heart.
When the pony heard the sound, he turned around and went to the utility room to take a look, and when he came back, he said, "The burden of the in-laws is still there, but I haven't seen where they are?" β
"Still have the baggage?" Jia Shi was obviously stunned, "You go and take it and see what's inside?" β
"Mother, isn't this okay?" Guan Ping, like Yun Ying and others, was still at a loss for the second monk, and subconsciously felt that it was not good to privately dismantle others or relatives' packages.
"What's so bad? Look in my room. Jia's anger did not stop, his tone was slightly raised, his face was ugly, and he let go of his body as if he was about to explode, so that a few people outside the door could clearly see the situation inside the house.
"Oh my God, ma'am, what's going on?" Pears screamed first.
The house was as chaotic as a storm, Jia's wardrobe and suitcase were opened, and the fabrics of his clothes fell to the ground; The two jewelry boxes on the side of the dressing table were also rummaged over, and a few worthless beaded hairpins were scattered on the side, but it was obvious that a few pieces of silver jewelry were missing.
"Madam, the parcel from the in-laws has been brought to you in small quantities." After all, the pony was a man, and he didn't dare to enter the house when he brought the package, so he left the package in the hall.
"Where did you come from?" When Jia Shi said this, he glanced at Yun Ying meaningfully: "Stealing people's property is a serious crime in the Tengyun Dynasty, and if you are caught, you will be exiled to the frontier for ten years, and my Guan family will not dare to have such relatives." Pony, take the package to Miss Yunying, there must be nothing of value in it. β
In fact, the package has already been opened, and with the speed at which the pony is coming and going, this package will not be opened by him. Looking through the open bag, there was a waterproof oil-paper bag in addition to a few patched clothes. The shape of the oiled paper bag is also a little strange, and the package is obviously much larger than the contents inside, so it is estimated that some of it was taken away. Some of the remaining Yun Ying only glanced at it and could identify the sand land deed, the house deed, and the household registration guide of their family. Presumably a valuable part was swept away.
Jia sat down in the first place with a sinking face, and instructed the pony: "You go and ask the village chief and the clan elder to come now." β
"Pony, wait! Mother, is there something for our family to talk about? Guan Ping realized something, stopped the pony running out, glanced at Yun Ying in embarrassment, and pulled her sleeve, "Yun Ying, you kneel down and kowtow to your mother, this matter can't be big, otherwise, how will you live in the future?" β
"Ping'er, you are thinking about her wholeheartedly, but people have already thought of a way out. You have to think about how to go to the capital to take the exam after the New Year, and the one hundred taels of silver that your mother worked so hard to save for you are now gone! The mother called the clan elders to come, so that they could call the shots for you, and quickly send the young and middle-aged people in the village out of the village to chase people. Jia Shi glared at Guan Ping angrily, this son is not very obedient when he is older. (To be continued......)
