Chapter 014: Helpless Arrangement
Peach Blossom pushed the bicycle and was just about to enter the door of her house, when the door opened with a "squeak", and she bumped into her mother-in-law Qin Shi coming out of it.
The half moon is gone, and the peach blossom doesn't know whether she is wronged or excited, as soon as she sees her mother's face, her nose is sore, and her tears fall down.
Peach Blossom's mother is called Qin Guizhi, and Qin Dachuan, the branch secretary of the village, is an uncle and sister. When the Qin family saw their daughter crying sadly when they entered the door, they "chuckled" in their hearts, could it be that the condition of the son-in-law army was ......? She hurriedly asked, "Flowers, what's wrong with the army?" What happened to the army's illness? ”
"Mother, don't worry, the army is fine, he will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow." Peach Blossom wiped her tears and pushed the cart into the yard.
But the Qin family was still pondering in his heart, thinking that Dajun would be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, proving that Dajun's illness had been cured, so his daughter must have suffered some other injuries or grievances, so he opened his mouth and asked: "Yo, Hua'er, you cried when you entered the door just now, what's wrong?" Who's in charge of my daughter? I'm going to settle accounts with his rabbit cub! ”
Seeing that her mother's mouth was not clean and scolding, Peach Blossom hurriedly poked up the car ladder, stretched out her hand and shook her mother's hand and said, "Mother, look at you, I cried when I saw my mother's heart, no one is responsible for me." ”
"This kid rarely scares me in a hundred ways." Qin's finger poked Peach Blossom's forehead, then pursed his lips and smiled: "Why can't you remember to go home today?" I didn't go home for so many days, and I thought I was still angry with our family. ”
"No, I'm not angry, I know it's okay, you're all for my good." Peach Blossom let go of her mother's hand and showed a naughty face: "Mother, you really don't want me to enter the house?" ”
After Peach Blossom said, the old lady realized that the two had been standing in the courtyard and talking.
"Yo, this stupid girl, my mother is also stupid, let's go, let's go to the house and rest for a while."
Peach Blossom entered the house, picked up the scoop and scooped the scoop of water in the jar to drink. Her mother hurriedly said, "Drink it slowly, you beware of a cold stomach." ”
Peach Blossom put down the scoop and asked, "My father and Shu Kuan have gone to work?" "Shukuan is the younger brother of Peach Blossom, one year younger than her.
"Recently, there is no work in the field, and I have meetings and studies all day long, which is purely a mixed work, and I am blindly delaying my work." The old lady muttered a few words, but changed the topic and asked, "I have been relieved these days, this time you and the army are really fine, right?" ”
"It's nothing, I just miss my mother, go home and take a look."
"Really?"
"It's true. By the way, I also want to tell you, don't worry about Dajun's illness, just recuperate at home after being discharged from the hospital tomorrow. ”
"Oh hey, my God, there's finally hope." The old lady suddenly smiled: "That's it, tomorrow your father and I will also go to the hospital to pick him up." ”
Peach Blossom smiled and said, "No, I can go with my mother-in-law, there are not too many people." My mother-in-law asked her how her mother was. ”
"Your mother-in-law is really good, how is it? Is she okay with you? ”
"It's good, my mother-in-law is a good-looking person, don't look at it as an old woman, she is more thoughtful than the old man thinks."
"Okay, don't praise your mother-in-law." Qin Guizhi knows that this is a child who reports good news but not bad news, even if she has great grievances, she will not show it in front of her family when she goes home, she is bitter in her heart, can she be a mother and not know? It's just that she doesn't want to say it, so don't force it.
After a while, Qin smiled and said, "Flowers, I see if it's okay, let's go to the private field and pick the cotton, and keep the cotton for Shukuan to marry his daughter-in-law." Are you still resting? ”
"I'm not stopping, let's go."
When the two came to their own private plot, they saw a piece of white cotton and were full of joy, so they picked up the burden and quickly picked it up.
Qin Guizhi said happily: "This spray of cotton can make two thick quilts, plus the head spray, it will be enough for Shukuan to use when he gets married this year." ”
Peach Blossom nodded and smiled and asked, "Does the tree width have a target?" What village is the girl from? ”
"It's not settled yet, but there are two introductions, your Uncle Dachuan has to let Shukuan book the one in the city, saying that it is his uncle and niece, I heard that the girl's father is quite powerful. Shukuan and the two have also met, that girl is not very good-looking, Shukuan is unwilling, your Uncle Dachuan is so angry that he scolds him, I can't help it. ”
"My uncle is domineering, if anyone doesn't listen to him, he will give people small shoes to wear, no wonder people call him the king of Yama."
"Don't talk nonsense, silly girl, beware of letting him hear it." Qin said to Peach Blossom: "Don't look at me and him as an old lady, but you have to listen to him in everything, otherwise he will be angry." When your Uncle Dachuan asked you to marry the second king of Yama, you didn't do it, and he is still angry with you when he talks about it. It's not that your father and mother have to force you to divorce Dajun, but your Uncle Dachuan still wants you to marry him, the cousin and nephew Eryan. ”
"I'm living well with the army now, why did you provoke me to divorce? It's too lacking! Peach Blossom was a little angry.
"What are you yelling about? Alas, it's also said that divorce is a difficult thing, but how will you live your life after you don't leave? ”
"I resolutely will not leave, as long as the army is there, I am a member of the army, whoever wants to say who goes, I don't care."
"You dead girl has been so stubborn since she was a child, I didn't agree to your marriage with Dajun at the beginning, look at this appearance, right? People often say that if you don't listen to the elderly, you will suffer in front of you. Okay, I won't talk to you, it's time to pick the cotton in our own field, you just come back and rest for a while. ”
"Mother, I'll go with you too, right?"
Qin Shi thought about it for a moment and said, "It's okay, then let's go together, you can help me pick it in the first afternoon." ”
The two talked while picking cotton, and sometimes argued.
At this time, Peach Blossom's younger brother Shukuan hurriedly ran over and shouted, "Sister! Go back quickly, your mother-in-law said that your husband was kicked by the animals. ”
Peach Blossom almost sat down on the ground when she heard this, and her heart was beating so hard that she was at a loss for a while.
Mother hurriedly said, "Peach Blossom, give me the bag quickly, and let Shukuan accompany you to go back quickly." ”
Peach Blossom couldn't speak, so she threw down her bag and ran home.
She got up the bike, stared, frowned, and couldn't care much, and in an instant, she flew to the edge of her mother-in-law's village.
Shukuan was sweating profusely after him, and he shouted behind him panting: "Sister! Slow down, don't fall! ”
Peach Blossom couldn't hear her brother shouting behind her for a long time, and she didn't stop until she entered the door of her house.
The people in the courtyard all focused their eyes on her, and from their expressions, she seemed to see that her father-in-law's injury must not be light.
Her mind went blank, and she didn't know how to get into the house. The father-in-law squinted his eyes and lay on his back on the kang, one leg wrapped in a bandage and padded high with a quilt. The mother-in-law sat on the side of his head and wiped the sweat for him, and the production captain Chang Danian and Liu Haitao stayed in the house and no one spoke.
The mother-in-law saw Peach Blossom and asked, "Peach Blossom is back?" You're just getting home, are you? ”
"As soon as I heard about it, I hurried back, I was scared to death." As Peach Blossom spoke, tears fell from her eyes, and she asked again, "How is my father's injury?" Is it heavy or not? ”
Chang Danian, the captain of the production team, replied first: "We were about to pull hay into the field with our two cars, but the mule suddenly made a fuss, and your father couldn't dodge and was kicked by the animal." I hurriedly carried him to the pharmacy, and the barefoot doctor in our village, Lao Wang, said that he had a broken lower leg, which had been kneaded, and he had taken anti-inflammatory injections and anti-inflammatory drugs. ”
Peach Blossom asked, "Why don't you go to the county hospital?" Is it okay to deal with it like this? Will there be any sequelae? ”
The father-in-law gritted his teeth and explained: "It's okay, Dr. Wang graduated from Bethune School, and his skills in orthopedics and trauma are quite superb, don't worry...... Sizzle...... Ouch. ”
"That's good. Dad, stop talking, just rest. Peach Blossom turned her face to the production captain and asked, "Is this considered a public injury, my father?" ”
Chang Danian, the captain of the production team, said again and again: "Count, count, of course, count as a public injury, the daily work is recorded, and the drug expenses are reported, you can rest assured, your mother-in-law will also add ten big jobs to her, will this be successful?" ”
"As soon as my mother serves my father, she can't do anything, and even the work at home has to be idle, how can ten jobs be enough."
"This ...... Okay, then thirty big jobs, top one prime laborer for a month, is that okay? ”
"Okay Peach Blossom, let's not embarrass the production team and our captain." The mother-in-law responded first, and Peach Blossom didn't say anything more.
There have been accidents in the family one after another, and the condition of the army has just improved, and now the leg of the father-in-law is broken again, which is really a blessing, and the disaster is not a one-way street!
For tomorrow's affairs, my mother-in-law seems to have already made arrangements, she stopped Liu Haitao and said: "Naughty, tomorrow you will delay for half a day, and go to the county hospital with Peach Blossom to pick up the army back, I can't go, I have to serve your uncle at home." ”
"No, I'll just go by myself." Peach Blossom refused first, because of the events of last night and this morning, she had already developed psychological fear and resentment towards Liu Haitao.
The mother-in-law didn't know what happened in the morning, she thought that Peach Blossom was still worried about last night's incident, so she persuaded Peach Blossom and explained: "You are not at ease alone, we are embarrassed to ask outsiders for help, it is all our own family, what is there to wait for the army to be brought back It's not too late, besides, there are so many things, one person can't take it, I think it's better to let the naughty child go with you, what's the big deal." ”
The mother-in-law was determined to let Liu Haitao go with her, and she no longer had the courage and means to refuse the old man's request.
Aunt Liu took the opportunity to arrange and said: "That's it, tomorrow I will serve your father at home, prepare meals by the way, and you and Peach Blossom will ride a bicycle and go to the county hospital to pick up the army together." ”
Liu Haitao raised his eyes and glanced at the peach blossoms, and he smiled bitterly at Aunt Liu in embarrassment: "This ......"
The mother-in-law wanted to say something again, but saw that Peach Blossom still bowed her head and was silent.
