The mother is kind, but she is also stubborn, and she dragged Jiang Sheng back to her parents' house early the next morning.

At that time, his father had already gone to the town's gendarmerie after breakfast, and Jiang Sheng was woken up by his mother, who pulled him out of the door after getting dressed.

Jiang Sheng said: "Mom, where are you going to take me, I haven't washed my face and brushed my teeth yet." ”

The mother said, "Go to your grandmother's house and brush it again." ”

"Grandma?" Jiang Sheng was puzzled, because his mother had never mentioned his grandmother in front of him for so long after coming to Sanlitun. "Why don't you bring your sister with you?"

At that time, I had already woken up in a daze, but I still wanted to lie on the bed and sleep lazy, when I heard Jiang Sheng's voice, I immediately put on my clothes and ran out of the door.

When I arrived at the door, my mother and Jiang Sheng had already walked to the entrance of Tunzi, and I chased after me barefoot, shouting to my mother, I don't know why she suddenly left with Jiang Sheng without a sound.

My mother ignored me, she pulled Jiang Sheng, who frequently turned back, to Qiantang Town quickly, let me cry and didn't look back, I chased anxiously, and accidentally tripped over a protruding old tree root and fell to the ground, so I lay on the ground and cried.

Zhao Fugui's house is at the mouth of Tunzikou, Shen A-Niang heard my crying and went out to check, helped me up and asked me what I was crying about. I cried and said, I don't know if she understood, she led me home, found cool knitted shoes for me to put on, and called Zhao Dahai to eat with me.

That day, I played with Zhao Dahai and Xiao Wu for a day, and it wasn't until the evening when my mother brought Jiang Sheng back, as soon as I saw Jiang Sheng, I pursed my lips and sulked, Jiang Sheng asked in a low voice: "Jiang Rong, do you miss me?" ”

I snorted softly, but Jiang Sheng's eyes narrowed into crescents with a smile, he took out a malt and a handful of jujubes from his pocket, and when he saw that I still ignored him, he stuffed the maltose and jujube into my hands.

I don't know what my mother took Jiang Sheng to my grandmother's house for, but I know that my mother was worried when she came back, and she ignored her father after she came home from work.

Early the next morning, I was awakened from my sleep by the sound of a fierce quarrel, which I was all too familiar with, the voice of Niu Aihua.

At that time, schools were closed for a week due to the fighting in Beiping, and many factories were temporarily suspended.

It was Ma Aiguo's younger brother Ma Aiguo who quarreled with Niu Aihua.

Ma Aimin, who came the day before, borrowed money from Ma Aiguo, and Ma Aiguo asked my father to borrow money and was going to find an opportunity to give it to Ma Aimin. Ma Aidang saw that his second brother had not borrowed money, so he simply came to divide the family property when he was young and vigorous.

Ma Aiguo's old house is very large, when a pair of parents are still alive, their family of five can live in, after the death of his parents, Ma Aiguo saw that his two younger brothers were only more than ten years old, and he was reluctant to let them suffer, so he took on the responsibility of supporting his two younger brothers and let them study for a few years first.

Ma Aiguo inherited his father's strong genes, but the two younger brothers are ordinary people, so Ma Aiguo did the work of three people without complaining, until Ma Aiguo and Ai Niu Hua got married and needed to use the house, and the two younger brothers also felt that their brother Ma Aiguo had taken care of himself for many years, and this old house should indeed be given to his brother.

But after Niu Aihua and Ma Aiguo got married, Niu Aihua sent more and more to the two younger brothers, Niu Aihua put on a stinky face all day long, and said intentionally or unintentionally: "This other people's children can go out to work and make money at the age of twelve or thirteen, and our two children are almost older than me and have not seen a child come back. ”

When Ma Aimin and Ma Aidang were taught a lesson, they could only endure this dumb loss, as long as they replied, Niu Aihua would scold them even harder.

Once Niu Aihua was so sneering when she lectured Ma Aimin and Ma Aiguo so sneeringly, Ma Aiguo was very angry, so he said Niu Aihua two sentences, Niu Aihua said angrily: "What I said is wrong, since you married me, you should live with me well, instead of using the money you earn to support others, yes, they are your own brothers, but you must know that they are only younger brothers, not your sons!" ”

Ma Aiguo said: "When they are adults, let them move out, when they grow stronger, they will not be bullied by outsiders, plus they are educated people after reading, they can find a factory and eat an iron rice bowl, and wait for two more years." ”

"Hehe, wait two years, I can't wait if you wait two years, my belly is getting bigger day by day, you can't see it?" Niu Aihua roared. "I see two people eating waste waiting to die all day long, and it's inconvenient for me to take a bath, don't you know? There is also a golden house in the book.,When they win the champion, I'm afraid we'll starve to death.,Don't you look at what era it's still reading.,A total of such a thick broken book has been memorized for a year.,This is what a reader looks like? Are you a fool or something? Ma Aiguo, let me tell you, I can't endure hardship, you want the old lady to make money to support them like you, but there is no door! ”

Ma Aiguo said: "Then we have to wait for them to finish their studies, and they may not be admitted to Beiping University, and our family can also glorify our ancestors." ”

"Can't wait!" Niu Aihua roared. "Don't say they can't pass the exam, even if they pass the exam, who will pay for it, and you will pay it? The child is gone? You're sincerely trying to up! ”

Ma Aiguo said: "Look at what you say, how can anyone blow up a tire?" ”

"If others can't, I can!" Niu Aihua was so angry that his face was red, he pointed at Ma Aiguo and said: "Ma Aiguo, I'll tell you again, I'll leave the words here today, within two days, either your two younger brothers leave, or we will divorce." ”

"It's not that you can't work, you don't have to worry about money, I have so much strength, I don't get tired of doing the work of three people by myself." Ma Aiguo said.

"If you have a lot of strength, you deserve to pick up a lot of dung? With great strength, why don't you learn from Huo Yuanjia to fight in the ring and open a martial arts gym? Niu Aihua sneered, walked into the house and began to pack up. I'm going back to my mother's house now, you ask someone to send all my things to the town, and if you haven't decided in two days, I'll decide for you, I've got your seed ruined in my stomach, and I'm sure I'm going to take it out. ”

Ma Aiguo couldn't stop Niu Aihua, who had a temper, and let her go back to her parents' house with her stomach and luggage.

Ma Aiguo had no choice but to let his two younger brothers leave the house first and rent a house in the town, and he would ask someone to find a relationship to see if he could get the two younger brothers into the factory to work.

At that time, Ma Aimin and Ma Aidang were still young and had not considered the issue of their parents' inheritance, and after so many years, they were both young men in their twenties.

Now Ma Aimin can't borrow money, and Ma Aimin directly proposed to divide the family property.

Niu Aihua scolded at the top of her throat, she saw more and more villagers coming over and scolded more energetically, and said: "Folks, come and see, our scholars who went out of Tun'er are now back in their hometowns, not only did they not contribute anything to their families and Tunzi, but now they have to come to divide the family property!" Yesterday, that Ma Aimin came to our house to borrow money, and he wanted to build a house and get married, and now this Ma Aimin is going to divide the house directly, how many years have our family patriotically raised them, and how many sins have they suffered, and begged grandpa to worship grandma's trust relationship to get them into the factory iron rice bowl, what happened, the money was not returned and began to hit the attention of our house! ”

Ma Aidang was scolded so red-faced, he said: "The eldest brother raised us and you didn't raise us, the old man died, the house should be divided equally among the son, and I came to get back what belongs to me." ”

"It's yours, okay." Niu Aihua said and looked at Ma Aiguo, who didn't dare to go out in the yard. "Ma Aiguo, have you heard, your parents died and this house is divided into three parts, now come and calculate that you have raised them for a few years, and the money for them to study, let them spit out, that is what belongs to you, our son Xiaowu is not small now, I am reluctant to buy him a new dress for half a year, just for the time being, you have no job, first take back the money, and prepare to build a new house, this old house and the old lady are also living enough."

Ma Aiguo stood in the yard with a disgraced face and didn't dare to speak, Niu Aihua snorted and said: "I knew that you didn't plant, thanks to you meeting the old lady, otherwise you would not have to drag these two beasts to death over the years, and you were admitted to Beiping University, I'm afraid you don't have to eat a potato, you worked hard to find them into the factory, this beast is how to repay the favor!" ”

"You don't scold people, cows love flowers!" Ma Aidang pointed to Niu Aihua's face and said. "My second brother and I entered the factory based on our ability, not on anyone's relationship!"

"Yo! Yo yo yo! Niu Aihua screamed a few times. Ma Aiguo, did you hear, did you hear your brother's words, he said that he entered the factory with his ability, and he didn't need you to find any relationship at all, how much effort did my parents spend to dredge up the relationship in the back, and you also said that you don't need to tell them, they know that I helped. Everyone has heard it, people are based on their ability, they don't need anyone's help, if only they said no when they ate soft rice at our house, why should I pull down my face and drive people away? Earn money by yourself to study, enter the factory with your ability, and then make money to build a house with your ability, and marry a daughter-in-law with your ability, what are you doing at our house? ”

Although Niu Aihua hates this person, the old and young masters in the tunzi have always been unaccustomed to her, but now what she said is indeed reasonable, Ma Aiguo has raised two younger brothers for several years, and this house was later lived in for him, so many years the two younger brothers did not come to ask for it, and suddenly mentioned that it was difficult for anyone to accept the house.

Ma Aidang was scolded so red-faced, he hated Niu Aihua very much, and immediately scolded him regardless of face, and the scolding was very ugly.

Xiao Wu heard Ma Aidang scolding Niu Aihua, so he rushed out of the yard, pointed at Ma Aidang and said, "Get out!" ”

Ma Aiguo was also a little unhappy, although it was his own brother, but after all, he was married, so he had to focus on his family. Originally, he still felt ashamed of his younger brother, but Ma Aidang's scolding made him extremely unhappy, so he said: "Ai Dang, you go back first, I will go to you and Aimin tomorrow afternoon, and I will handle the marriage for you." ”

"What are you doing for him, you have money?" Niu Aihua asked.

Ma Ai Dang said: "I just want to get back to my part of the house. ”

Ma Aiguo came out of the courtyard, looked at Ma Aiguo, who was much thinner than himself, and said: "You go back first, I will go to you tomorrow, and I will definitely discuss with you a good way to handle the house and marriage for you." ”

Ma Aidang stood at the door stubbornly with a straight face, and said: "I can't wait over there, I have to give an explanation here today, you can't get out of this woman when you go out." ”

Ma Aiguo's face was extremely bad, and he was obviously annoyed, he said: "You want one-third of this house, can you still demolish it?" Why don't you move in with your daughter-in-law? ”

Ma Ai Dang said: "I want money. ”

"Okay, how much do you want?" Ma Aiguo said.

Ma Ai said: "I want a thousand." ”

Ma Ai Dang said this, which made all the surrounding villagers sigh, Ma Aiguo's house is a brick house, yes, but the house is not worth a thousand in total, Ma Ai Dang said that a thousand is obviously a slander.

"Love the party, your brother loves you, but he is also a family man, you can't slander him like this, his house is decades old, the roof has to be repaired once a year, and the house will be sold for 1000 at most, aren't you nonsense?"

Niu Aihua pouted and said, "I knew that I was poor and crazy to blackmail money, and I was embarrassed to the door." ”

Niu Aihua waved his hand and entered the yard as he spoke, Ma Aiguo took out the 1,000 he asked his father to borrow last night from his arms, handed it to Ma Aidang, and said: "There are just 1,000 here, but you can't give it all to you, you have to give half of your second brother, save some enough for Zhang Luo's marriage, don't come here in Sanlitun, your sister-in-law is here, do it in the town." ”

Ma Aiguo was stunned, he didn't expect Ma Aiguo to take out so much money so quickly, and the other people in the tunzi were also stupid, it was a thousand yuan, in that era, a thousand yuan was enough to buy thirty acres of land, and the family's grain was almost enough to eat with seven or eight acres of land a year, even if his father worked for the Japanese gendarmerie, it was only more than three hundred a year.

Most of that money was left to his father by Lao Jiang before he joined the army.

"Mom, Dad took a lot of money to the third uncle!" Xiao Wu shouted at Niu Aihua in the house.

Niu Aihua heard Xiao Wu's voice and hurriedly ran out of the door, but when she arrived at the door, Ma Aihua had already run away with the money, Niu Aihua looked at Xiao Wu and asked, "How much does your father give him?!" ”

Xiao Wu said angrily: "One thousand! ”

"A thousand?" Niu Aihua heard Xiao Wu say this, and then looked at the surrounding villagers Someone nodded to her, she shouted and rushed up to grab Ma Aiguo's hair, and shouted hysterically: "Ma Aiguo, you have no conscience, I save money to take care of this family and help you raise your son, you are good, you will give a white-eyed wolf with so much money!" ”

Ma Aiguo impatiently pushed Niu Aihua to the ground, Niu Aihua sat on the ground, patted her thigh and cried: "Don't live, don't live, this day can't be lived, Ma Aiguo, you have no conscience, we will divorce from today on!" ”
