The mother told Baishou that she had heard from the people in the village that her grandfather and grandmother were going to celebrate the New Year in the village.

Not only that, but the second uncle's family and the third uncle's family also have to celebrate the New Year in the village.

Because the uncle who was a soldier in the army had already married in the army, according to customs, he had to go back to the village to hold another wedding banquet.

I see, Bai Shou asked curiously, "Mom, how do you know?" ”

Mother said, "Your Aunt Yulan has been here, and she asked me to help her cut her clothes, so she told me by the way." ”

Although her mother has limited mobility and poor health, she is ingenious and can make shoes and clothes, and can cut and sew them with her hands.

The clothes of the white hands and the younger siblings were sewn by the mother with a needle and a thread.

Although the people in the village did not welcome Bai Zhenxing and the white-handed father and son, they were kind to Guo Cai'e and the other four children, especially those women, who often came to the house to ask for clothes skills.

"Oh yes, hand, your Aunt Yulan said that Tong Jiuyang's foot injury is not healed yet, you have to be free, let you help tidy up her family's vegetable garden."

The white hand responded, and then he remembered that he hadn't "reported" to Fang Yulan for several days about his martial arts practice.

Now his mind is full of money, and how can he have time to practice martial arts with his white hands.

"Mom, I'll tell you something, don't be angry."

"It's to help Chen Cuihua take care of the family's nursing home."

Bai Shou was taken aback, "Mom, you know this?" ”

"You and your second brother go out at night, can I know? I asked your second brother, and he told me everything. ”

"Mom isn't angry?" The white hand accompanied him and asked carefully.

Mother sighed: "Alas, you are for our family, why is my mother angry?" Hand, I've wronged you. ”

With his white hand, he took out the six yuan given by Chen Cuihua last night, as well as the triangle given by Xiaozhuo and the two corners given by Bai Dang.

"Mom, we have more than thirteen dollars now. Don't worry, this year, we will have a good time, and I will make my younger brothers and sisters happy. ”

"Hand, this money is not enough, after the New Year, your younger brothers and sisters still have to go to school."

Bai Shou comforted: "Mom, you don't have to worry about it, I have a way to make money." ”

The white hand handed over the money to the mother, but the mother did not accept it and let the white hand keep it, she was afraid that the white hand and his father would suddenly "kill" back.

"Hand, there's one more thing. Your uncle treats you well, he wants to invite us to have a wedding wine, will you go? ”

"No, no." The white hand replied crisply.

"It's not good."

Bai Shou smiled bitterly: "Mom, if you go to eat wine, you have to pay for it." The rules of our village are at least one piece per person. There are six people in our family, and at least six yuan of money, I can't bear it. ”

This reason left the mother speechless.

There is another reason, which Bai Hand did not say, but pretended in his heart.

Grandparents, as well as the second uncle and third uncle, in addition to not waiting to see him, they are not very good to their mother and younger brothers and sisters.

One day later, the younger siblings went on winter vacation.

Afraid that the younger brothers and sisters would run into the second and third uncles, they were strictly ordered not to go out.

One day later, the uncle returned to the village with the aunt.

The hand-held tractor suddenly sounded, carrying the uncle and aunt, from the west end of the village into the village, and the white-handed house was a must-pass place.

More than half of the people in the village came out to see the excitement, and they also greeted the uncle and his family.

Sitting in the courtyard with white hands, he did not raise his head, but was busy mending the buckets, dustpans, baskets, and straw baskets with bamboo silk.

Four younger siblings, the second brother Bai Dang and the eldest sister Bai Mi, one helps the eldest brother work, and the other helps the mother to take the soles of shoes. Both of them were very competitive, but they didn't get up, ignoring the excitement outside.

The third brother Bai Mian and the little sister Bai Xue are not really sensible yet, and they really want to see the excitement. But the eldest brother had already ordered the two of them to sit at the stone table and read and study honestly.

But the grandparents' house is a little close, and the lively sounds come and go, how can the two little children have the heart to read.

The third brother and the younger sister came to the eldest brother's side.

"Big brother, do we have any questions to discuss?"

It was the third brother who spoke.

"What's the problem?" The white hands do not lift, and the hands do not stop.

"Big brother, our dad took away all our money, you don't seem to be particularly angry, why is this? You seem to hate your grandparents and second and third uncles very much, why is that? ”

Silent with white hands.

The little sister grabbed the eldest brother's arm and shook it as she said, "Big brother, I also want to know why?" ”

The white hand likes the little sister the most, "Second, third, do you know why?" ”

The third sister said, "I don't know. ”

The second brother said, "I know. If it weren't for the grandparents who gave our dad to Grandpa Tong, our dad would be the boss of the Bai family. Grandparents all eat commercial food, and when they retire, it must be our dad who gives priority to work, just like the second and third uncles. If our dad had gone to work, our dad wouldn't be like this, we wouldn't be so poor, and we would have been able to live in the county. ”

The little sister said: "Then let's not just watch movies every week." ”

The second brother continued: "Grandparents are so unfair. ”

The eldest sister said: "Grandparents don't want our father, that's feudal superstition." ”

The little sister said: "Big brother, we must fight resolutely against feudal superstition. ”

Baishou smiled, "Little sister, if the uncle comes to ask you to go to the wedding wine, will you go?" ”

Xiaomei immediately hesitated, "Big brother, Uncle is good to us, and secretly sends us books and school bags." ”

The third brother also said: "Uncle is good to us." Also, my aunt is fine. Last time, I lost my lunch box and didn't have anything to eat at noon, but my aunt gave me two steamed buns. ”

The eldest sister snorted: "Two spineless, a pair of soft eggs." ”

He put down his work with his white hands, and was about to speak, when he saw a soldier standing at the gate of the courtyard.

It was Uncle Bai Zhenyang.

With his white hands opening his mouth, he wanted to call him "uncle", but he couldn't.

The younger siblings all looked at the eldest brother.

Bai Zhenyang smiled: "Hand, what do you mean?" Don't even recognize the uncle? ”

By the broken wall, many people are watching the excitement.

Bai Shou nodded at the second brother, "Dang, you go and open the door." ”

"No, no." Bai Dang shook his head proudly.

The white hand looked at the eldest sister again.

"Big brother, I don't listen to you about this." White rice is also quite tough.

The white hand had no choice but to say to the third brother and the younger sister: "You two go." ”

Bai Mian and Bai Xue trotted to open the door, opened the door, and called Uncle timidly.

Bai Zhenyang walked into the courtyard, carrying things in both hands, and he had everything to eat.

Bai Zhenyang went into the house to see his sister-in-law.

The third brother and eldest sister followed up.

The eldest sister scolded in a low voice: "Two traitors." ”

The white hand did not get up, and he was still mending a pile of bamboo utensils.

The second brother is also stubborn, and he follows the eldest brother to learn the same.

After a while, Bai Zhenyang came out of the house, walked to Bai Shou's side, and sat on the spot with a smile.

The second brother and eldest sister hurriedly got up and walked away.

Bai Zhenyang took out five ten-yuan bills from his military uniform pocket and put them on the base of the basket that was turned over in front of his white hand.

"Hand, I heard about your father, you can use the money first."

The white hand's face changed, and he picked up the knife with his hand.
