Chapter 165: Xiao Li's Story
"What happened between Old Man Li and his son?"
Just when everyone was talking endlessly and sighing with emotion, Jiang Huo, who was sitting there, suddenly opened his mouth and asked.
On the shore of the deep pool, there was a sudden silence. It was as if several pairs of invisible hands were grabbing everyone's necks, making them speechless.
Old Man Tang, who was sitting beside Jiang Huo, put down the fishing rod in his hand, stared at the pond intently, and said, "It's all caused by the woman who came back with Xiao Li." ”
The beautiful woman who came back with Xiao Li was Xiao Li's college classmate, and the two had fallen in love at school. She is also a native of Beijing, her home is in the local area, and she has a lot of industry. As the only daughter in the family, the woman's attitude is very strong, Xiao Li has met her parents several times, and she is despised.
I don't know if Xiao Li really likes women, or if he was lost by the other party, even if the woman is so demanding of him, Xiao Li also pressed his temperament and lived. Perhaps with his sincerity, he moved the other party's parents, and after a certain reunion, the woman's parents finally agreed to Xiao Li's marriage request.
Seven years ago, Xiao Li came back with two purposes. One is to visit my old and decrepit parents who I haven't seen for a long time; The second is to inform his parents that his marriage has been decided.
Yes, from the very beginning, Xiao Li did not say any hello to his family, and directly made his own decisions and gave his marriage.
Xiao Li is the pride of Lao Litou.
At first, after hearing the news, Lao Li Tou's heart was very unhappy. But after thinking about it, it is not easy for my son to work hard outside these years, and he finally met someone he likes, since the other party does not dislike his son's family background and can settle the marriage, then he will no longer ask more.
However, what happened next completely angered Lao Litou.
When a son marries a girl he likes, Lao Li Tou can not ask; The son is going to hold a banquet in Beijing first, and then return to his hometown to feast on the villagers, and Lao Li Tou can bear it; The woman's parents may not be able to be present at that time, so Lao Li Tou gritted his teeth and agreed......
However, when the woman proposed that the child born in the future should follow the woman's surname, Lao Li Tou finally couldn't bear it anymore, and the anger in his heart, like the Enaptina volcano in Peru, completely erupted.
"No! Absolutely not! Old Li Tou roared and rejected the woman's proposal.
No matter how Xiao Li persuaded him, Lao Li was bitten to death, and resolutely disagreed with the child's surname.
That night, Lao Li Tou rushed to the kitchen, wanting to pick up a knife and hack this unfilial son to death.
That night, this incident caused the entire Shanyu Village to be well known.
"Hey, in fact, I said, the woman's request is a bit excessive, no bride price, no house, but what I want is the lifeblood of Lao Litou......"
"Yes, if I had known about this matter, I would definitely not have stopped Lao Li Tou......"
"It's a pity that not long after Xiao Li left, Lao Li's mother-in-law passed away."
"I heard that it was angry to death, and the phone number left by Xiao Li has become empty."
The old men shook their heads again and again, sighing incessantly. Since this matter was said by Old Man Tang, there was no need for them to hide it, they all showed the anger in their hearts.
Jiang Huo and Tang Ning glanced at each other, and the two were silent and continued to fish.
As the sun sets, the afterglow of the setting sun shines on the deep pool, and everyone tidies up their things and prepares to go home.
The river fire bucket was already full of fish, and these fish were crowded together, scratching and scratching, as if they were about to break free. Of course, there are more than just so many fish caught by Jianghuo, and even Tangning's bucket contains a lot of fish.
Naturally, so many fish couldn't be digested all, so Jiang Huo took the initiative to carry the bucket and distributed the fish in the bucket to the old men who had emptied it. For a while, everyone was overjoyed.
After packing up their things, the group parted, and when Jiang Huo and the others returned home in a leisurely manner, it was already more than six o'clock in the evening.
And Grandma Tang, who had been busy all day, had already prepared dinner and was waiting for them to come back at home.
Seeing the three people who were fully loaded, Grandma Tang suddenly smiled from ear to ear, she took the bucket and poured the fish into the water tank in the courtyard, and then beckoned the three of them to wash their hands and eat.
Tang Ning's arrival made the second elder very happy, this is the first dinner of the eight classics, Grandma Tang made a very hearty meal, the chicken, duck and fish on the table, vegetables and fruits, all are self-produced food in the village, natural and organic pollution-free.
After a full meal, Old Man Tang sat on the rattan chair in the living room and watched TV. After Grandma Tang washed the dishes and chopsticks, she returned to the bedroom and listened to the opera.
Jiang Huo and Tang Ning, who had nothing to do, returned to the third floor, lay on the bed, and played with their mobile phones.
"Shanyu Village, it's actually pretty good." Jiang Huo, who was lying there, said this thoughtlessly, which made Tang Ning puzzled.
"What do you say? I don't understand what you mean. Tang Ning put down his phone and looked towards Jiang Huo.
"I mean, Shanyu Village has a beautiful environment, fresh air, simple people, and self-sufficiency, so it's a good choice to retire here." Jiang Huo put down his phone, leaned against the head of the bed, squinted his eyes, and relaxed his whole body. Continued: "Quiet environment, close to nature...... Well, it's just that the chickens are a little noisy in the morning. ”
Hearing Jiang Huo's words, Tang Ning glanced at her angrily, and said, "You just came here, you feel comfortable, if I told you that Shanyu Village was once hit by a torrential rain, and the entire village was flooded, you wouldn't think so." ”
"This should be a small probability event, right? You've grown this big, and how many times have you been hit by torrential rains? ”
"Let me tell you, this is really not a small probability event, since that rainstorm seven years ago, Shanyu Village has experienced three rainstorms."
"But fortunately, except for the first rainstorm, which flooded the entire village, the next three times only flooded the fields, causing crop damage, but no casualties......
Seven years ago?
Jiang Huo, who was leaning on the head of the bed, suddenly opened his eyes, and his pupils flashed with doubt.
A strange thought, like a meteor, crossed Jiang Huo's mind.
Jiang Huo stretched out his hand and pestle Tang Ning, and asked tentatively: "Hey, do you know where did Xiao Li in Old Man Li's family run away back then?" ”
"I don't know? However, I heard from the people in the village that the old man of the Li family once went to Beijing to look for Xiao Li, but he didn't find it. Speaking of this, Tang Ning's brows furrowed, a furrow appeared between her eyebrows, and she continued: "However, there are rumors in the village that after the old man of the Li family found the woman in Shangjing, the other party said that he had already broken up with Xiao Li......"
