Chapter Twenty-Six: Marry the Retard
Children are naughty, bumps and bumps are inevitable, Zhao Zi often plays because he climbs high and jumps low, and injuries are commonplace, when Zhao Yuzhi looked at it before, he didn't see Zhao's mother scolding so angrily.
Hearing Zhao's mother mention the matter of changing food, Zhao Yuzhi realized that Zhao's mother was deliberately making excuses about Zhao Zi's matter and blaming her for her mistake in changing food.
That night, in front of Wen Xiaoxing, being scolded by the village chief had already made Zhao Yu so angry that he exploded, but he didn't expect that after such a long time, Zhao's mother still repeated the old thing, looking for an opportunity to scold.
Wen Xiaoxing haunted Zhao Yuzhi like a nightmare, no matter where she was, in her mind, Wen Xiaoxing's shadow lingered.
Hearing about the exchange of food, Zhao Yuzhi immediately shouted, "What did I do wrong about the exchange of food." ”
"You're just stupid, you can exchange twenty catties of food for a broken comb, do you have a brain that can't calculate? It's a shame that you think you're smarter than the Wen family, and I don't think you're as good as her. Mother Zhao reprimanded unrelentingly.
Zhao Yuzhi had angry tears in his eyes, and he quarreled with Zhao's mother in the yard, and Zhao Zi, who was distressed on the side, stopped crying, but just stood aside obediently, watching the two women in the family quarrel.
It is said that three women in one play, and the women of the village chief's family, two people can hold up a stage.
Listening to the quarrel between the two, the village chief felt a buzz in his head, like a headache from a swarm of flies buzzing around.
Usually, listening to Zhao's mother's mouth is already the limit of patience, but now it is two people, and the village chief is about to explode.
"Don't make any noise, every day because of a little food, it's not a shame to lose people, let the people in the village hear it, where to put my face." The village chief's angry muscles burst out, and he coughed a few times and shouted loudly.
Although Zhao's mother was fierce, she still didn't dare to disobey the words of the village chief, and immediately stopped her scolding voice and glared at Zhao Yuzhi angrily.
Zhao Yuzhi's face was flushed with grievances, aggrieved and angry, all of which were caused by Wen Xiaoxing, which embarrassed her again and again, and she secretly swore in her heart that she would never let Wen Xiaoxing go.
"This is the comb that Yuzhi exchanged for food, I think it's worth it, I haven't seen this pattern, maybe it's an antiquity, if it's really valuable, it's more than ten or twenty catties of grain." The village chief showed the comb that he had put away early in the morning to Zhao's mother, "Your mother-in-law has long hair and short knowledge, and she is always calculating, and she will not look at the long run." ”
Mother Zhao took the comb, looked at the sun and looked, the pattern is indeed very chic, and the touch feels very good, it looks like something left by the ancestors, and it must have been a comb used by large families in ancient times.
The angry look on his face disappeared immediately, and he grinned slowly, and gradually put on a smile.
"Since it's a valuable thing, then I'll keep it first, and when I'm empty, I'll go to the town to stock the stock price." Zhao's mother's greedy face took the comb into her pocket.
"You, be careful not to expose your wealth, and beware of being watched." The village chief tapped the bags under his eyes, "I'm not tired all morning, and I haven't gone to cook yet." ”
"You take care of me, if the price is good, I will keep it for Zi'er to beg for a daughter-in-law. Okay, I'm going to cook. Mother Zhao's face bloomed with joy, and she felt beautiful in her heart when she thought about it.
But Zhao Yuzhi was not as happy as Zhao's mother, he kept his face drooping, twisting a stubborn temper, no matter how the village chief persuaded him, he couldn't turn the corner, and he was always competing.
Zhao Ziji didn't remember to play with Zhao Yuzhi, but he was pushed to the ground, he wanted to cry but seeing Zhao Yuzhi's angry appearance, he pouted and held back.
Zhao Yuzhi's anger had not subsided, and Zhao's mother walked in front of her with a smile on her face.
"I was troubled by Zi'er just now, and I forgot to tell Yu Zhi about something very important." Mother Zhao took Zhao Yuzhi's hand, her face full of eagerness, "There is a rich family surnamed Wang in the next village, and the matchmaker has come to ask for it, you are not too young, dress up well and go to see you." ”
Zhao Yuzhi thought that Zhao's mother had a conscience, and came to apologize to her so gently, but she didn't expect it to be a gentle knife, and the grievance just now had not been resolved, and she stabbed her heart again, and the blood dripped down directly.
"I'm not going!" Zhao Yuzhi shouted and shook off Zhao's mother's hand.
Only then did Zhao Yuzhi understand that Zhao's mother didn't care about her at all, all she cared about in her eyes was money.
"Why don't you go, your parents' orders are the words of the matchmaker, you have to go if you don't go, you take care of yourself, and your temper, it's all because the family spoiled you, and your parents don't listen to it." Mother Zhao was angry with her face and taught a lesson, and her words were full of persecution.
Zhao Yuzhi yelled at Zhao's mother, whether the neighbors could hear it, she was full of anger at the moment, and she could only vent it if she made a big noise.
"The son surnamed Wang is a mentally retarded person at all, and you let me marry into such a family, isn't this forcing me to death? Are you going to watch me die? Zhao Yuzhi almost roared wildly.
Mother Zhao's face showed a trace of embarrassment, but it was fleeting, "The son of the Wang family is a little unclear, but it doesn't mean that he won't feel sorry for you, besides, their family is rich, you can marry without worrying about food and clothing, and you can still help Zi'er, isn't it?" Mother, this is all for your good. ”
Zhao's mother's words made Zhao Yuzhi feel cold, what she had always thought she was proud of was just a big dream in the end, she thought she was the daughter of the village chief, she must be different from other women, and it was the same in the end.
"Helping him is for my own good, then I really have to thank my mother." Zhao Yuzhi sneered and pointed at Zhao Zi, "The mentally retarded surnamed Wang, I won't marry him if I die!" ”
Zhao Yuzhi took a few steps back, shouted at Zhao's mother about his determination, turned around and ran into his room, and slammed the door shut.
Mother Zhao looked at the direction of the house puzzled, and her mouth was still muttering, all for Zhao Yu's good intentions.
"Who am I for, not for him, for your Zhao family, I have done something wrong, this attitude speaks to me." Mother Zhao was also a little angry and had nowhere to vent, so she could only turn around and yell at the village chief.
Seeing Zhao's mother's angry appearance, the village chief couldn't persuade at this time, otherwise it would be adding fuel to the fire, so he had to comfort Zhao's mother in a slow voice.
"Yu Zhi is still young and doesn't understand your intentions, besides, you just pointed at her, you must be unhappy, come over for a short time, slowly tell her, she will understand, angry and even who will take care of this family." The village chief coaxed Zhao's mother and took her to the house.
Only Zhao Zi, who is not only sophisticated, is still innocently playing with mud in the yard.
couldn't hear the noisy sound, and Wen Xiaoxing, who was distracted, slowly came back to his senses.
I've been here for so long, and I've long thought that I could go to the movies once, but I didn't expect to encounter a stage play today, or a family ethics stage play, which is comparable to a thunderstorm.
Wen Xiaoxing sighed a few times, and suddenly felt a little desolate, Zhao Yuzhi, who is usually arrogant, made her feel a little pitiful at this time, even if she was favored by everyone in the village, she still couldn't make decisions about her future affairs.
She was low, thinking about it, while walking around the village, she didn't see the figure of the two men, presumably they had already left, so she was relieved to go home.
It's been a bit long since I've been away from home, Long Yu'an is a little burdened, and if he hasn't come back for so long, he must have met those two men on the road who were killed and killed.
Long Yu'an, who was unable to sit still, went out to look for it, and bumped into Wen Xiaoxing head-on.
"Where are you going, escape?" Wen Xiaoxing asked teasingly.
"Why did you come back so late?" The tone of Long Yu'an's eyes made Wen Xiaoxing a little uncomfortable.
Hearing the voice, Zhong Zizhu and several people also rushed out. Seeing that Wen Xiaoxing was unscathed, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mother, if I heard them arguing at the door of the village chief's house just now, I listened quietly for a while, so I came back late." Wen Xiaoxing explained with a smile, but in fact, he said it to Long Yu'an.
After listening to Wen Xiaoxing's explanation, Long Yu'an's tightly knit brows suddenly relaxed.
"My mother often tells you about other people's things and asks less about them, have you forgotten?" Zhong Zizhu pretended to be annoyed.
"Mother, listen to me, Zhao Yuzhi's mother wants to marry her to the mentally handicapped son of the Wang family in the next village, just because their family is rich." Wen Xiaoxing sat down with Zhong Zizhu's hand, and everyone sat around Zhong Zizhu as if listening to a story.
Wen Xiaoxing learned from Zhao's mother's scolding tone and attitude, and performed it with emotion, making the whole family laugh.
"The son of the Wang family in the next village, I've heard people say that it seems that he had an illness when he was a child, and his brain is not good after he recovers." Zhong Zizhu recalled and said, "The Wang family has been thinking about finding a girl, fortunately their family has money, otherwise it will be a lifetime of trouble." ”
"What is the use of having money for such a fool." Wen Yixing said angrily.
"That is, don't marry even if you die."
Zhong Zizhu smiled and stroked the heads of his daughters, "Don't worry, in the future, a few of you will find someone, your mother and relatives will follow you, and you will not be forced to do so, life is hard enough, and there is no one who feels sorry for yourself, this life is really unbearable." ”
Zhong Zizhu deeply understood that feeling, if it wasn't for Father Wen's distress for her, I don't know what her situation is now.
"My mother understands the righteousness so well, why doesn't Zhao Yuzhi's mother understand." Wen Xiaoxing frowned, unable to figure it out.
Zhong Zizhu admonished them a few times, telling them not to inquire about other people's affairs casually.
After lunch, Zhong Zizhu packed up the firewood, thinking that tomorrow the market would sell the firewood to supplement some household expenses.
"How can my mother's thin body pull a cart, I'll borrow an ox cart." Wen Xiaoxing looked at the thin Zhong Zizhu, turned around and ran out.
"Little four, no need." Zhong Zizhu shouted, only to see that Wen Xiaoxing had disappeared.
"Mother, why don't you stop Xiaosi, the Tian family ......" Wen Yixing wanted to speak and stopped.
"Let her go, you will know the lesson when you touch your nose, and you won't be so impulsive next time." Zhong Zizhu shook his head unhindered.
