Chapter 41: Grandpa Burns Himself (Part II)
She suddenly remembered that on the morning of the quarrel that day, she had just asked for back the 300 yuan owed by a family to the quilt at the end of last year, and she had kept it in her trouser pocket and forgot it.
In order to wait for her younger brother to come home, Grandma also wanted to stay for a few more days anyway. No matter how hard she usually picks the door, she took out the 300 yuan without distress, put it directly on the dining table, and said to her brother and daughter-in-law: "The 300 yuan is the food expenses of our mother and son, and you can go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy it later!" ”
My brother-in-law didn't expect that this sister-in-law was a well-known iron rooster, and she would be willing to give her 300 yuan today, and the sun really came out in the west.
She was not polite, just about to reach out for the money, the boss grabbed all the money, grabbed it, and quickly divided the money with the brothers, one hundred yuan each, and ran out of the door as soon as the pants were stuffed.
The eldest is twelve years old this year, and the brothers are only one or two years old. The two big ones reacted fast and ran fast, and the youngest of the three reacted a little slower and ran slowly.
When the younger brother and daughter-in-law saw that the money was robbed by the boss, they instinctively wanted to catch the boss, but the eldest and second child slipped away quickly. grabbed the third child and robbed him of his money, the third child said that he would not take it out at all, and he was so angry that his brother and daughter-in-law couldn't even grab a child. directly "pop-pop-pop" shaved three times on the face of the third child, and kept scolding and scolding: "Your old Yang family, the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, the old one steals people, and the small one robs money." I'm still lazy to cheat at my house, dead calf! Pay me back! There are dog things that are born by fathers and not raised by fathers. There are piglets who have mothers and no mothers......"
After Grandma put the money on the table, she immediately regretted it in her heart, feeling sorry for the 300 yuan, how many eggs she had to sell to make up for it.
She winked at the boss, but she didn't expect the boss to know the fucking mind best, so she snatched the money at once, and was very smart enough to divide it into three parts, so she didn't have to worry about being caught and served to a pot. Grandma is so happy in my heart! I can't stop secretly rejoicing.
But when Grandma saw her most beloved youngest son being beaten, she had been living in a state of silence for the past few days, and it was unprecedented for her temper to endure it to this day.
Now that her youngest son has been beaten, she no longer has to endure it, and the resentment of how many days of grievances has been sprinkled on her brother and daughter-in-law.
The two sisters-in-law are entangled together like this, they both hate each other so much that they grit their teeth, and they are very ruthless. You pull my braids, I pull your buns; I'll kick you, and you will give me a kick; If you bite me, I'll bite back immediately.
Neither of them had fuel-efficient lamps on their mouths, and this one scolded: "You who have suffered a thousand knives will not die well!"
The one replied, "You deserve to go to eighteen levels of hell." ”
……
Scolding! Scolding! Suddenly, someone scolded: "You woman is so bad, you deserve to be cut off from your children and grandchildren, and a man to die." ”
The other was stunned for a moment, then immediately slowed down and laughed: "Ha-ha! Just scold it! , it's your own mother's family who dies anyway, ha-ha! I'm going to remarry! Ha-ha!"
"Ahh How did I scold my baby brother! Damn it! It's all you, a bad woman! Grandma reacted and beat her brother and daughter-in-law even more.
The younger brother and daughter-in-law are small and exquisite, and their family background is okay, and they rarely do farm work. She couldn't beat it at all, she was doing heavy farm work in the field all day long, and her grandmother was full of stupid strength.
Not long after, the younger brother and daughter-in-law were defeated, abandoned the family and fled in spite of the embarrassment.
is like a grandmother who has no brains, and she is still rummaging around in this house, still looking for something to eat.
My brother-in-law's maiden home is not far from here, and when she shouts at the head of the village here, her mother's family can hear it clearly, and there are many brothers and sisters in the family. After a while, the people of her mother's family called friends, and a large group of people rushed to the direction where her brother and daughter-in-law were standing like a large army......
Before grandma could dig out something, the courtyard was already full of people. Before grandma could react, a few men dragged grandma out of the house without saying a word and threw her directly on the ground in the courtyard. couldn't help but say something, everyone punched and kicked grandma, and kept spitting eggs on her.
In the end, the tossed half-dead grandmother was thrown directly at the entrance of the village like a dead pig, and then the group of people walked away.
The boy hid in the shadows, and when the group of people were gone, he pushed and pulled his grandmother half-way, and finally the brothers took his grandmother back to his house.
Grandpa looked at the mother and son, the dead wife and son must have caused trouble in her mother's house again, and her body was dirty, like a pig rolling in a pigsty, and she was covered with scars. The stinky boy was sweating profusely in the winter and covered in mud. Obviously, the mother and son are four people, and they fled from their parents' house in this way.
Grandpa doesn't care about his past mistakes with his grandmother.
Take good care of your grandmother's body, and take care of this group of babies who are waiting to be fed......
Grandma was at her mother's house during that time, looking forward to the stars and the moon all the time, looking forward to her younger brother coming home. Now that my brother is finally back, as soon as he enters the house, he listens to his wife's cry, and as soon as he throws down the package, he rushes to his sister's house non-stop.
Grandma, who was still lying on the bed to recuperate, looked at the murderous brother in front of her, and felt a burst of cool air coming out of her back.
was scolded by her younger brother for a while, and almost beat her to death again, but in the end, her grandfather came to help her out......
After my grandfather's careful conditioning during this time, my grandmother's body gradually improved. The old man took care of himself regardless of his previous suspicions, and also helped her out of the siege, and grandma couldn't hold back her hatred for him. On the contrary, he buried all the grievances and hatred in his heart, and as Xiao Yangguo grew up, it gradually took root in his grandmother's heart.
Because there are two such young children at home, my grandfather can only play cotton at home, and then there are more lands, and he still has some savings in the business he used to do outside, and the family can live a good life.
Yang Guo does everything, and grandma will never participate. Grandpa was not at ease with her, and he tried his best to do things about Yang Guo himself.
When Yang Guo was more than two years old, grandma always secretly bullied her while her grandfather was not paying attention, either scolding her, pinching her hard, or secretly scaring her.
Yang Ping is still too young to know that Yang Guo is not her own sister, but she likes very much what her father brought her, this little sister who is only two years younger than her.
The two sisters stick to play together all day long, as long as Yang Guo is bullied by her mother, Yang Ping will stand up to protect her little sister, and Yang Ping will also suffer.
As long as Dad's talisman is not around, the two are always beaten and scolded together, and Yang Guo's injury is definitely much more serious than Yang Ping's.
This made my grandfather dare not leave an inch, his little apples. It is impossible to prevent it, and from time to time the two children are injured. Grandpa couldn't bear it, no need to endure it anymore, once beat grandma hard, and threatened her, next time I will divorce you directly, you take your baby boy to get out of me.
Grandma is also afraid that after being divorced, her mother's family has made herself shameless to go back. With a boy, his stinky temper is still so old, and no one will definitely want him.
Since then, grandma has restrained a lot, and there are fewer hands in her hands, but she is still unforgiving. Should it be an outgoing tube or a punching bag, of course, it was made behind my grandfather's back.
Grandma waited for Yang Guo to be more than three years old, and forced Yang Guo to sweep the floor while his grandfather didn't know, feed the chickens and ducks and do some small things within his ability. and threatened Xiao Yangguo that if you dare to tell your father, I will beat you to death and strangle you.
The little Yang Guo always has tears in his eyes, finishes these things, and practices and works hard to do a good job, trying to be scolded and beaten as little as possible. Yang Guo walks on thin ice in front of her grandmother every day, for fear that she will make her mother angry again, or when she will become her mother's punching bag again. She didn't understand why her mother treated her brother diametrically opposite to her, and why she was treated like this by her mother.
Since Yang Guo was treated unfairly by her grandmother, she became timid and afraid, especially obedient and sensible who was extremely inconsistent with her age.
Yang Guo clinged to his grandfather more and more, seeking refuge, and coquettishly in his grandfather's arms. Originally, my grandfather liked this God-given child very much, and Yang Guo was the most obedient and sensible in this family, and my grandfather liked her more and more.
When he was about to go to elementary school, his grandmother taught Yang Guo to cook openly, and Yang Guo had to help with all the housework. Because the other children are busy with school, my grandfather and grandmother are either busy playing cotton or busy with farm work in the fields every day.
As long as grandma doesn't beat Yang Guo, it's normal for girls to help the family do some housework, and besides, the husband and wife are really busy and don't have time, so grandpa will turn a blind eye.
Throughout primary school, Yang Guo was busy every day in addition to going to school, and she did all the housework alone. Slowly, Yang Guo practiced a good dish for stir-frying, and he was used to cooking at home. Even if there are guests at home, grandma wants Yang Guo to cook, and there will always be people who praise Yang Guo for being so young, making good dishes, and he can open a restaurant as a chef in the future.
The speaker has no intention of listening, and grandma is thinking in her heart: one day, she will make good use of this little bastard in the family, and now Yang Guo is her personal girl, and in the future I will make her my wallet and my cornucopia......
Time passed in a flash, Yang Guo had graduated from primary school and was about to enter the junior high school in the township.
Grandpa saw that Yang Guo was so old now, and he didn't find out that the old woman beat Yang Guo and bullied Yang Guo for many years, it seems that Yang Guo did some housework, so it was worth it to save the old woman from making trouble for her. Now my grandfather is not afraid that the old woman will beat Yang Guo again, even if he beats her, Yang Guo is so old that he can escape and fight back.
The boy in the family is almost an adult, and the old house of the family should be demolished and rebuilt, and he will marry the boy again. In the past few years, the couple has worked hard to provide for the school of their five children, and now the family does not have much savings.
My grandfather thought about it again and again and decided to go to the north to play cotton again, work for a few more years and come back, and try to earn back the money for building a house at one time.
So, before the end of the summer vacation, my grandfather took the bed and went to the north to re-explore the rivers and lakes.
My grandfather has to send a letter to his family every once in a while in the north, and his most concerned thing is always Yang Guo, and he has to say a lot of things to Yang Guo in every letter. But Yang Guo received none of these letters, but he didn't see them. Let grandma quietly accept it, and then, just ask any son to reply to his father with a letter of peace.
My grandfather didn't know that he was in the field, and he thought that everything was fine at home, especially his fruit was doing well, so he was very relieved to work outside.
My grandfather worked hard in the north for three years, estimating the money he had earned in the past three years, and it was almost the same to go home and build three two-story tiled houses. If it's not enough, you can borrow some to make up, which is also enough for the wedding room for the future boy's marriage. I haven't been home for many years, and I haven't seen Yang Guo for a long time, and I feel more and more panicked. If you do the math again, the three years of junior high school are almost over, and she should also take the high school entrance examination, so she has to go home to accompany her to take the high school entrance examination......
Waiting for my grandfather to take care of everything at hand, he traveled a long way and stepped into the house excitedly. He shouted loudly: "Fruit! Fruit! Daddy's Beware Liver! Daddy is back! ”
After shouting for a long time, there was no response, in the past, as long as my grandfather shouted like this, Guo'er would fly to my grandfather like a happy bird.
But today, my grandfather searched the house inside and out, and he couldn't see Guo'er's figure, there was no one in the family, and even the old woman didn't know where to go?
My grandfather didn't see the time early, and he went to the kitchen to cook when he was hungry.
After a while, grandma came back from the field with a hoe, and looked at the smoke of her chimney from a distance, and felt very strange: she and Yang Guo were the only ones in the family who had the habit of cooking, could it be that Yang Guo didn't go to work and secretly ran home?
Thinking of this, grandma was very angry, ran home in three steps and two steps, carried the hoe and rushed directly to the cupboard, and scolded along the way: "Dead girl!" Dead poplar fruit! Why don't you go to work and go home? Give me all this month's salary. ”
My grandfather, who was sitting on a small bench burning the fire, heard the old woman's scolding, and just wanted to stand up, but my grandmother's hoe almost hit him on the head.
Grandma was just about to hit Yang Guo, but suddenly found that it was her old man who lit the fire, and she was immediately stunned.
While she was stunned, her grandfather pulled the hoe on top of his head hard, and grandma almost fell down with the hoe, so she pulled the stove in time to stand firm.
Grandpa scolded angrily: "You dead old woman! If you don't change your dead nature, you're almost going to crush me to death! Said - what did you do to Guo'er, and you still want to smash her to death with a hoe, where is Guo'er now? Have you ever let Guo'er go to school. Grandpa now wonders if Grandma didn't let Guo'er go to school.
"It's her who doesn't want to go to school, what's the matter with me!" Grandma shirks responsibility.
"You talk nonsense! Guo'er has been smart and clever since she was a child, and she is the best learner among the five children. Besides, she is also a child who likes to go to school the most, she will definitely be admitted to the best high school in the county, and I will accompany her to take the high school entrance examination when I come back. "Grandpa believes that among the children in the family, his fruit will be the most promising in the future.
"Mom! Mother! Who are you talking to in the kitchen? I'm starving, Mom! Serve me food!" The third child went out to play, and as soon as he came back, he shouted that he was hungry, and he wanted his mother to serve him.
Hearing the voice of the third child, my grandfather shouted and asked him to come over. When the third child heard that his father was calling him, he ran over in a hurry, and since he was a child, he was afraid that his father was like a mouse seeing a cat.
Grandpa shouted loudly: "The third child! Tell me where your sister Guo'er has gone? What is she doing? Dare to lie and see how Lao Tzu beat you to death today. As he spoke, my grandfather snatched the hoe from my grandmother's hand.
As soon as they met, it was this situation, which scared the third child, although he hadn't seen his father for three years, and his height had already surpassed his father. But since he was a child, he was afraid that he would have a shadow in his heart, and he just came back to meet such a scene, so he was directly frightened and sat on the ground paralyzed: "Dad! It's all my mother, you just went out and forced Yang Guo's sister to go to a small restaurant in the city with a cousin in the village to brush the dishes, and brushed the dishes for half a year. Later, one day, they found that Yangguo stir-fried vegetables were delicious, so they made her a chef, and her salary doubled. My mother herself would be on time every month to receive all of Yang Guo's salary, and she didn't leave a penny for her. It's been like this until now. The third child didn't hold back at all, and said it all in one breath.
To be continued......
