The first chapter is worn to that special era
"Jiaojiao, I'm here to bring food to your third sister-in-law again, is your third sister-in-law better, and your third brother hasn't come back yet?"
Outside the courtyard, the high-pitched horn of the eldest daughter-in-law of the old Wang family spread far and wide, calling Leng Mei'er, who was lying on the kang in the house and pretending to be dead, back to her senses.
"Hmm. Has my sister-in-law eaten? ”
"Isn't this just getting off work, where did you get to cook! I'm not as blessed as your mother, I can eat ready-made food every day, I want to have a good girl like you, I can wake up with a smile every day when I dream! ”
Meng Meijiao said two more polite words before saying, "Sister-in-law, I'll leave first, you can also hurry home and cook!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the wooden courtyard door was pushed open from the outside, and a little girl of about fifteen or sixteen years of age, dressed in coarse cloth clothes, walked into the courtyard, with a basin in her hand and a drawer cloth on it.
In the three days that Leng Mei'er woke up, this girl would bring her food on time every day.
Meng Meijiao walked into the east house familiarly, with a faint smile on her immature face, and greeted Leng Mei'er: "Third sister-in-law, are you awake?"
At noon, my mother specially asked me to steam an egg custard for you, and boiled millet porridge, you can eat it while it's hot. ”
Leng Mei'er nodded at this beautiful little girl, and her hoarse voice sounded: "Hey, I just woke up, and I've been taking care of my little sister for the past few days." ”
The smile on Meng Meijiao's face couldn't help but deepen a little, and she said:
"We are all a family, what's the trouble here, the third sister-in-law doesn't have to be polite to me, it's just that this voice is really sad, it's been three days, why haven't you been good yet?"
Speaking of this, the little girl's face couldn't help but be a little worried, their family's conditions were limited, and all they could do was to let their sick sister-in-law eat as well as possible.
And obviously, the combination of this millet porridge and egg custard is already quite a high treatment.
"Or ...... Why don't I go to Dr. Wang to buy some medicine for my throat, it's a big deal, it's a big deal, I owe the money first, and then I will pay it back after the grain is distributed this year. ”
Dr. Wang is a barefoot doctor in the village, and people in the village basically come to him for a headache and brain fever, and he still has some real skills in his hands.
"No, my voice is much better, I just haven't spoken for a long time to be like this, it's okay to slow down, don't worry."
Meng Meijiao listened, her voice was indeed much better than when she first spoke, and she also put her mind at ease.
"Then the third sister-in-law, you should eat the meal quickly, otherwise it will be cold later."
"Hey."
Leng Mei'er picked up the chopsticks handed over by Meng Meijiao, Meng Meijiao had already opened the basket and took out a bowl of golden millet porridge, a small bowl of steamed egg custard, and a small plate of fried Chinese cabbage, these things are already rare to eat in this era.
Since she opened her eyes on this kang three days ago, this little girl has been changing her food every day, and to be honest, she is really a little embarrassed to be taken care of.
After all, she is not Meng Meijiao's real third sister-in-law.
The original name is Wen Xiurong, eighteen this year, and his mother's family is in the production team of Liujia Village, Sanhe Commune next door.
The life of the family was supposed to be quite passable, but in the first month of the first month, Wen's mother suddenly fell ill, and spent all the dozens of dollars that the family had barely saved over the years.
The family was worried for a while, especially Mother Wen, who spent all the money in the family because of illness, and she blamed herself even more.
The four children of the Wen family, the eldest clerk has already married a wife, and has a son and a daughter; The second is the clerk; The two sisters, the third Wen Xiurong and the fourth Wen Xiuying, are twins.
The relationship between the four brothers and sisters is very deep, and seeing that their parents and brother are depressed, the two girls made a bold decision: either change relatives for the second brother and come back with a daughter-in-law.
Either one of the two sisters will marry, and the bride price will be left for the second brother to marry his daughter-in-law.
Wen Xiurong is shy and a little timid, so when the matchmaker came to the door, Wen Xiuying, who has always been smart and outgoing, took the first step to get her marriage done, married a descendant in the next village, and gave a bride price of 80 yuan, plus 30 catties of food.
The people in the village knew that the Wen family's daughter, the Gu family, left all the bride price to her brother to marry her daughter-in-law, so a matchmaker came to the door to introduce the object to Wen Laoer.
The result of looking at each other was that the two looked at each other correctly, but the bride price that the woman asked for suddenly stumped the Wen family.
Wen Xiurong couldn't understand why her sister got a bride price of 80 yuan and 30 catties of food when she got married, and when her second brother married a daughter-in-law, she had to spend 160 yuan to marry someone into the door.
But she knows very well that if the second brother wants to marry someone back, there is only one way, she also has to marry herself like her sister, and the bride price money can make the second brother marry a daughter-in-law.
The clerk knew her mind and tried every means to dissuade her, but she couldn't stand Mother Wen had already nodded, and there was no room for turning around in this matter.
Wen Xiurong and Meng Dekui only met once before marriage, and in Meng Dekui's eyes, Wen Xiurong was too thin, but because she was handsome, she could be regarded as pleasing to the eye, so she also agreed to this marriage.
As for Wen Xiurong, she only glanced at Meng Dekui, she didn't dare to look at it again, and was directly frightened by his appearance.
I wanted to push off this marriage, but when I thought of the bride price that Meng Dekui promised, I swallowed it back when it came to my mouth, so Wen Xiurong was married home by Meng Dekui, who didn't know where to get 80 yuan and 30 catties of grain.
And her tragedy also began in this blind marriage.
The marriage between the two was done very quickly, and it didn't take more than two months from meeting to getting married. But what made Wen Xiurong extremely embarrassed was that on the day of marriage, her husband Meng Dekui was called away by a few fox friends without even entering the cave room.
Wen Xiurong lived cautiously in the Meng family for more than a month under great pressure, she was already more introverted, and she was naturally timid, she had to go to work during the day to earn work, she was tired to death one day, and she was home alone at night, and she couldn't even sleep.
Three days ago, when I was washing clothes by the river, I lost my strength and fell into the river, and after being rescued by a few women in the village, I was directly replaced in the core.
In his previous life, after Wen Xiurong fell into the water, he was sick for several days, and when Meng Dekui came home, he was beaten up and said, which scared this timid girl even more afraid of him.
Especially after knowing that this man usually steals chickens and dogs outside, fights and brawls, he resists him more and more in his heart, and even treats people as a flood beast, and he doesn't dare to say more to him, and the married life at night is like a punishment.
Once the man's nightlife was not harmonious, his temper became bigger and bigger, so the married life of the two entered a vicious circle mode.
