Chapter 319: Take a Step

Yang Xinxiu's two eldest brothers still have opinions on the old man's division of the family and the preference for the third family, they are dissatisfied, but they didn't say it, after all, their younger brother is gone, what do they want to say is equivalent to bullying other orphans and widows, but their daughter-in-law doesn't care about this set, behind the old always say that the old is eccentric, and the good things are given to the third family, this man, he is afraid of blowing the wind on the pillow, once or twice, many times, they remember it in their hearts.

Yang Xinxiu came to them to repair the house, they listened, and there was still a little schadenfreude in their hearts, look, the good house was given to you, the house is still rotten, ask me to help you repair the house, how can I have that space, I can't be busy with the work every day, or you have to think of a way yourself.

Yang Xinxiu's heart was cold, except for the child, she couldn't even find a reason to continue to stay in this house, Yang Xinxiu cried all the way, until she walked to the grave of the head of the house, and cried bitterly on the man's grave for a while.

Yang Xinxiu cried and scolded, "You are blind, everything was your father and mother when you were alive, everything was your two brothers, look at it now, how they treat your wife and children, why is my life so bitterβ€”β€”, you have the ability to take our orphans and widows away, so that we will not suffer in this world." ”

People cried all morning, and the howl could be heard from afar, and Yang Xinxiu held back his tears when he saw that it was time to make lunch, choked and walked home.

After an unscrupulous catharsis, Yang Xinxiu's heart brightened a lot, and when she passed Liyun's house, she happened to see Cheng Liyun and her mother sitting next to each other, and the two of them were talking affectionately and picking vegetables.

is all a villager, Yang Xinxiu also knows Cheng Liyun, she knows that this person likes to be a matchmaker, and immediately her heart moved, and she walked into the courtyard of the Cheng family with a limp of her steps.

After a morning of crying, Yang Xinxiu's voice was already hoarse, and every time he said a word, his throat hurt a lot, "Auntie, Sister Liyun is back." The pain in his throat made the corners of Yang Xinxiu's mouth twitch, after several years of fatigue, Yang Xinxiu's face looked much older than his actual age, his hair was as dry as hay, his face was haggard, and there was no look in his eyes.

Old Mrs. Cheng opened her toothless mouth and greeted Yang Xinxiu with a smile, "Rookie, come and sit." ”

Cheng Liyun pulled a bench from the side and put it beside her, patting the stool, "Rookie, come and sit here." ”

Mrs. Cheng was very sympathetic to Yang Xinxiu, looking at her red eyes, knowing that she had cried again, the old lady kindly persuaded: "Xinxiu, if you want to open up when you encounter something, you have to take care of your body for the sake of the three children."

Yang Xinxiu had someone to talk to, and her tears couldn't stop falling, "Auntie, if you don't want to open something, persuade yourself." ”

Yang Xinxiu cried, and told Mrs. Cheng's mother and daughter all the things she had encountered, and at the end, she stretched out her hand full of calluses and cracks to show the two, "Auntie, Sister Liyun, look at my hand, it looks like a thirty-year-old woman's hand, and the eighty-year-old lady doesn't change it." ”

Cheng Liyun held Yang Xinxiu's hand and rubbed it over and over again, she sighed, "Sister, what kind of life are you doing, if you want me to say, don't keep it, if there is a suitable person here for you to pay attention to, you better take a step, it is better to find someone to help you than for you to suffer these crimes." ”

Originally, Yang Xinxiu had already had this thought, Cheng Liyun mentioned this, which was in her arms, but she couldn't agree too happily, she lifted her shirt and wiped the corners of her eyes, "Sister Liyun, seriously, I really don't want to take this step if I can take this step, now I have no choice, the house has a big hole, it is like a funnel when it rains, and my mother-in-law doesn't even have a partner, I also want to find someone to help me, if there is really a suitable one, you can introduce it to me." ”

"Okay, as long as you agree." Cheng Liyun patted Yang Xinxiu's hand, "There is a suitable sister who will come back to tell you." ”

Ruimin was impatient, and Ruifu came back slowly on the tricycle.

At this time, the sun had sunk into the horizon, the early rising crescent moon hung in the sky, occasionally a few small stars blinked, and the shadows of the trees swayed slightly with the breeze in the moonlight.

Ruimin has been listening to the movement next door with his ears, and as soon as the door over there rang, Ruimin knew that the third brother had come back from the stall, so he put the bowl in his hand on the table, got up and walked out.

Because Ref needs to push a tricycle to his home every day, his door is relatively large, and the two doors are pushed open, and he can easily ride the car in.

When Ruimin came over, Ruifu didn't have time to get out of the car to cover the door, Ruimin said "The third brother is back" and startled him, and when he looked back, it was Ruimin, he jumped out of the car in a hurry, "Hey, fourth, when did you arrive?" ”

Ruimin's chicken eyes, although he can only see a figure in the shadows, but he can also hear from the voice that this is his third brother.

"Just arrived next night." Ruimin stood in the courtyard, facing the moon, and began to look at Ruifu's house, which is two main houses from north to south, and a kitchen is built on the west side, because the foundation is limited, this yard is not big, but living alone, it still looks cleaner.

Ruifu stood beside his brother and asked proudly, "How about the house that my brother built?" ”

Ruimin can only see a general situation, he can't see whether it is good or bad, but people like to listen to good things, Ruimin touched Ruifu's heart when he spoke, "But it's not bad, just look at it, third brother, you have a house, when will it be better to marry a sister-in-law to come in." ”

"That's not a hurry." Ruifu washed his hands and prepared to go to the kitchen to cook, "Fourth, have you eaten?" Brother will make you something delicious. ”

Ruimin smacked his lips, "I just drank a bowl of mush at Liuzi's." ”

Ruifu: "Whew~ What can you do if you are confused, when my brother came back, I bought a pound of pork offal, and my brother will make two dishes, and we will drink two cups together." ”

Ruiquan took the bowl, followed Ruimin and came to Ruifu's side, heard that there was meat, and hurriedly said, "Third brother, I also want to eat meat." ”

Ruifu looked at the things in the kitchen and replied, "Okay, you go and fill a plate of peanuts and fry them first, I'll see what to order, I knew that your fourth brother would come back today, so I would have bought more things." ”

"Okay." Ruiquan happily picked up a bowl and brought a bowl of raw peanuts over, he opened the lid of the pot, looked at the stove, and said that I can't do the job of frying peanuts while burning the fire, looking at Ruimin standing aside, he shouted: "Fourth brother, can you come and help me burn the fire." ”

"Then there is still a miss?" Ruimin sat down directly at the stove, grabbed a handful of wheat straw and lit the fire first, and then filled a few corn stalks, "Liuzi, why did your fifth brother go, why haven't I seen him until now." ”

Rui Quan stir-fried the peanuts in the pot, "Fifth brother didn't do anything, maybe he is still playing cards in the card field, he should come back in a while." ”

Ruimin frowned, "Lao Wu's addiction to playing cards is still so big?" ”

Ruiquan nodded, "Fifth brother likes to play cards, so he stays there if he has nothing to do." ”

When Shi Youtian was alive, someone was in charge of Ruisheng, and he didn't dare to play cards so presumptuously, now it's okay, his father is dead, and his mother is not at home all the year round, and now he is in a half-divided state, no one cares about him, Ruisheng will let himself go, and he can play as long as he wants.

Soon, Ruiquan's peanuts were fried, Ruifu slapped the cucumbers again, mixed them with garlic and vinegar, opened the small table and put them away, took out a bottle of two pots, poured three cups of wine, and the three brothers ate it.

Ruimin was still thinking about the little widow, and after a glass of wine, he couldn't wait to ask about it, "Third brother, the person you wrote to is true, right?" ”

Ruifu swallowed the wine in the cup, so spicy that he hurriedly muttered a piece of pork liver and put it in his mouth, "Of course it's true, otherwise what is my brother writing to you for, stamps don't cost money." ”

Ruiquan is not good at drinking, he only took a small sip of wine, and he kept picking up delicious food, don't look at his mouth non-stop, his ears are not idle, he listened to the conversation between the two brothers in his ears, he interjected, "Third brother, fourth brother, what are you talking about?" ”

Ruifu: "Eat yours, how much leisure the kid's family hassle." ”

said that he was a child, Rui Quan was very unconvinced, "Third brother, I am in my twenties, how can I still be regarded as a child." ”

Ruifu: "Your fourth brother and I are in our thirties, what are you not a child in front of us?" ”

Rui Min came back suddenly today, Rui Quan was quite puzzled, but when he saw it, something was really wrong, and he muttered: "Then I'm not a child anymore, you can't hide something from me." ”

Ruifu yelled at Ruimin, "It's your fourth brother's good thing." ”

As soon as he heard that it was a good thing, Rui Quan came to his senses, he pulled the bench to Rui Min's side, his face was full of flattery, "Fourth brother, what good things are you, tell me about it." ”

Ruimin said with a smile: "You heard your third brother say, how can it be considered a good thing?" ”

"What the hell is going on?" Rui Quan didn't have the energy to eat, and stared at the two brothers and asked vigorously.

After satisfying Rui Quan's appetite, Rui Fu said slowly: "Aunt Cheng said that she wants to introduce you to a fourth sister-in-law, and your fourth brother came back to see each other." ”

But whenever he encounters men and women, everyone gossips, and when Rui Quan heard that it was related to the future fourth sister-in-law, he was even more energetic, "Really? That's really a happy event, which village is the person? Fourth brother, when are you going to see you?"

Ruimin's face flushed slightly, "It's Aunt Cheng's mother's village, as for when to see her, ask Aunt Cheng what she means tomorrow and let her arrange a time." ”

While talking, Ruisheng went home to eat, he went to the old mansion first, found that there was no one, lifted the lid of the pot to see that there was still cornmeal porridge left for him, he picked up the bowl on the side of the pot, took out a bowl, and muttered while sucking along the edge of the bowl, "The sixth son is really, he burns muddy every day, and he doesn't know how to make something delicious." ”

Ruisheng walked to Ruifu with a bowl, and when he saw that the light was on inside, he walked in, and was surprised to see Ruifu drinking a little wine with someone, so he immediately reluctant, "Third brother, why don't you call me when you eat delicious food?" ”

Ref: "Call you?" You're full when you play cards, why am I calling you? ”

Rui Quan moved to the side to make room for Rui Sheng, "Fifth brother, look at who is back." ”
