Chapter 16: Admitting Mistakes
Huang Xiaosi left and went to the kitchen.
"Sister-in-law, is the porridge boiled well? The fat man has been hungry for a long time. ”
"Alright," Wang said, quickly serving a bowl, "you can bring it over." ”
"It's hot, don't rush." Huang Xiaosi refused to leave, looking like he wanted to say something and stopped.
Seeing this, Wang asked suspiciously, "Little Four, what do you want to say?" ”
"Sister-in-law," Huang Xiaosi lowered his head, "You say, can you, can you let the fat man stay in our house?" ”
Huang Xiaosi doesn't really understand anything, he knows that adding someone to the family will add a burden, they used to be underfed, and when the fat man comes, he will be even more underfed.
Hearing this, Wang's face was stunned, and he bowed his head and was silent.
Intellectually, she felt that she couldn't keep one more person, but emotionally she felt pity for the fat man's experience, and she couldn't bear to starve a child to death.
But the conditions of the Huang family, they can't have food and clothing, how can they have the ability to raise another outsider.
She couldn't say the cruel words, so she simply kept her head shut and didn't speak.
"Sister-in-law, you really can't leave the fat man in our house?" Huang Xiaosi said in a panic that he was worried, "If you continue like this, the fat man will really die." ”
"Little four," Wang said sadly, "the conditions of our family are not good, many people are competing for food, and the whole family is hungry. ”
"Sister-in-law," Huang Xiaosi asked tentatively, "How about I give half of my share to the fat man?" There is no need to cut your rations. ”
"No," Wang gently refused, "in this way, your body will be burned." ”
"What then?" Huang Xiaosi was about to cry, "I don't want the fat man to die, he is my sworn brother, and we said that he died on the same day and in the same year." ”
Seeing this, Wang was at a loss and didn't know what to do.
"Little four," Boss Huang walked over and gave his wife a reassuring look, "It's not impossible to let the fat man stay." ”
"Big brother," Huang Xiaosi grabbed Boss Huang's arm excitedly, "What good can you do?" ”
"It's simple, just ask for a mother." Boss Huang patted his younger brother on the shoulder, "My mother agreed, and no one in the family will object." ”
"I know," Huang Xiaosi flattened his mouth, "I just don't know the bottom of my heart, I'm afraid that my mother won't agree, so I want to see what my sister-in-law's opinion is." ”
Speaking of this, Huang Xiaosi lowered his head in frustration, "My mother is the most thrifty, I can't wait to break it in half for a penny, it's not easy to save Xiaopang with twenty yuan, if I ask her to raise one more person, she will definitely be beaten."
If you are beaten, you will be beaten, anyway, I am used to it, but I am afraid that the fat man will not be able to stay, and he will die outside after a while, he has not given birth to a son, and he can't bury his ancestors when he dies, and it is too pitiful to become a lonely ghost. ”
Hearing this, Boss Huang paused before speaking, "You think really far." ”
The teenage hairy boy began to think about having a child!
"Little four," after hesitating, Wang spoke, "Mother is different now. ”
"Different?" Boss Huang was puzzled, "What's the difference?" ”
"She's not the same as before," Wang explained, "and my mother is very soft-hearted now. ”
She still hasn't said a word, not only is her heart very soft, but she is also very peaceful.
Although it was only two days, the two concubines noticed something unusual, but the current Jiang Nuan was more in line with the rumors, and they didn't think much about it.
"Mother's heart has always been very soft, she is very good," Boss Huang said, "Mother used to have a good temper, but after my father left, she became spicy, there is no man in the family, she is not spicy, our family will be bullied." ”
"Same as these two days?" The ghost made the gods send the earth, and Wang asked this.
"Yes," Boss Huang nodded with a smile, "You can go out and inquire and you will know that when my mother was a girl, the young man from ten miles and eight towns almost broke the threshold of our grandmother's house." ”
"Will my mother really agree?" Huang Xiaosi asked excitedly, "Big brother, I took what you said seriously." ”
"Who has the time to lie to you, you haven't seen it all these years? Human life is a major matter, my mother has never been stingy, and I don't believe that I will ask tomorrow. ”
"Cheng," Huang Xiaosi happily picked up the bowl, "I'll tell my mother tomorrow morning, the fat man is waiting to eat, I'll go first." ”
"Put the bowl and come to the hall to eat." Wang instructed.
Hearing Huang Xiaosi's words, she breathed a faint sigh of relief.
Finally, I don't have to worry about it.
The conditions at home are indeed not good, but they have hands and feet, and they can earn more money if they are busy.
Let such a young child starve to death, she will not be at peace in her life.
For dinner, there was one less Jiang Nuan, and even if the chicken and fish were eaten, the Huang family did not eat much fragrant.
After a few bites of hastily eating, Boss Huang put down the bowl, "Mother's craftsmanship is really good, this is the best meat dish I have ever tasted, and the banquet in the village is not as delicious as my mother's cooking, but I can't eat it when I think of my mother being tired from cooking." ”
"Mother's cooking?" Huang Xiaosi raised his head in surprise, "My mother also taught me to read and write in the afternoon." ”
"What?" Huang Lao Da Huang Lao Er spoke in unison.
"Little four, my mother taught you to read?" Saying this, Boss Huang's breathing became short.
"Well," Huang Xiaosi nodded, "Not only me, but also Xiao Wu, Da Niu and Er Niu also learned together." ”
"I'm sour," Huang Lao Er looked at his younger brother enviously, "Little Four, you are so blessed, and your brothers have this blessing." ”
I think they bought pen, ink, paper and inkstone at the beginning, but as a result, my mother was seriously ill, and this matter was over.
"Xianggong, my mother is tired, is it because I am too tired to teach literacy in the afternoon?" Xie was a little unhappy.
Although she knew how important it was to study, she was still distressed when she saw Jiang Nuan tired.
"I shouldn't have let my mother cook," Wang lowered his head and admitted his mistake, "It's all my fault, if I stop my mother, she won't be tired." ”
"It's all over, sister-in-law, don't talk about it," Xie pursed his lips, "I'm also at fault, if I had known about this, I would have to grind my mother out of the kitchen." ”
"I'm also at fault," Huang Xiaosi looked guilty, "My mother taught us to read and write, I was very tired, I ran out to play directly after learning, and I didn't think about my mother's ......"
"I'm also at fault," Boss Huang said sullenly, "I used to pester my mother to cook because of curiosity, and she must have thought of me before she insisted on doing it." ”
"And me," Huang Lao Er also spoke, "If I come back early, I can help with the cooking, and I don't have to be tired of my mother." ”
"Little Five is also wrong........."
As a result, a dinner with good rice and meat became a meeting to admit mistakes.
Jiang Nuan woke up in the middle of the night, and seeing that it was pitch black outside, she went to the space to run the exercises.
At the end of a week, Jiang Nuan came out of the space in good spirits, and the sky was already bright.
After getting dressed and getting up, I was ready to go to the yard to wash.
When I opened the door, I was taken aback.
Counting one, two, three, four, eight people outside the door.
Good guys, the people in the family who know a little bit about things are all here.
"Boss, what are you doing here?" Jiang Nuan was confused.
Early in the morning, everyone came to block the door, and I didn't know which play they were singing.
"Mother," Boss Huang lowered his head and said, "Let's admit our mistakes." ”
