Chapter 31: Brother and sister-in-law
In the middle of the house, the candle flame is relatively dim. After Su Mi soaked the man's shoulders and arms, he took the soap oil and rubbed it repeatedly in his hand, until there was a white foam, and then rubbed it on the man's strong shoulders.
Rao is too small and too soft. Soft, the man only felt his body, as if he was being slapped by a ball of cotton. I felt sleepy, and I leaned on the edge of the tub with my eyes closed, and I fell asleep.
After washing, Su Mi brought a large piece of clean brocade cloth, saw that the man was asleep, and carefully examined his knife-like cheeks. The eyebrows and eyes are handsome, the thin lips are a little curvature, if the skin is whiter, I am afraid that he is also a beautiful man from ten miles and eight towns.
After sleeping for a while, the water in the bathtub gradually cooled, and he was afraid that his man would be infected with the wind and cold, so he held his face with both hands and shouted softly: "Husband! Husband! Husband! ”
Hearing this voice, Zhao Laosan got up. Su Mi hurriedly handed over the Jinpai he was holding, and saw that the man had dried the water on his body, so he handed over the gown and pants again.
Because Su Mi's left cheek was still a little swollen, she was afraid that she would be pressed when she slept. Zhao Laosan slept in it today, Su Mi slept outside, and the left cheek was medicated again before going to bed, and he fell asleep at night, and the night breeze, he only felt that his cheeks were refreshing and very comfortable.
On the second day, Su Mi got up. Looking in the mirror, the swelling on his face was gone, only two scars from his fingernails, and the gorilla looked a little dazzling.
Put on an apron and go to the stove to prepare breakfast. Seeing that there was still some mung bean porridge left from last night, he first heated it, then boiled two more eggs, and fried a plate of papaya, and then went to the bedroom to call the man up.
After the man finished eating, he said that he was going to go to town and asked the woman to do something at home and not go out.
Thinking that there was nothing else to do, the pigsty had been repaired, and the shed for feeding the ducks and chickens had been erected, so he poured out the cloth he had bought that day.
Seeing the man's figure getting farther and farther away, Su Mi took out the wire frame, sat in the hall and threaded the needle, and sewed the pants that were not sewn last time.
Su Mi's stitch work, Rao is because he is careful, and he can be regarded as doing well in ten miles and eight towns.
Zhao Laosan seemed to have a wind at his feet all the way, and he arrived in the town in more than an hour. He didn't come to the town today for other things, mainly to explore the wind in the town, and he hadn't come to the town to sell tofu for four or five days at home.
Some came early, and the town was still a little deserted, except for some vendors of all sizes who were still sorting out their goods. I cleaned up the two ruffians that day, but I can't see this ruffian today, could it be that he was really crippled and recuperated at home?
Zhao Laosan was wandering on the street, and some businessmen who had done business had seen him before, and they smiled and said hello, but he didn't say much, just nodded and continued to wander.
The town was almost over, and he didn't see the two ruffians he cleaned up that day, thinking about it and still not worrying, he went to the Furong pastry shop to inquire, only to know that Hu Dacun and them really didn't appear in the town again.
When he was about to go back, he saw that the chickens in the chicken pen in the street were round and shiny, and they were very pleasant, so he bought three roosters and four hens. The chicken dealer knew Zhao Laosan, so he gave him a bamboo basket and put all these chickens in it, so that he would not be pinched when he returned home.
"Son-in-law! Son-in-law! ”
Zhao Laosan heard the voice behind him that was a little familiar, and turned his head to see that it was Su Mi's mother, his mother-in-law, and hurriedly asked, "Mother, why are you in town?" ”
Sujia Village is farther away from the town, and it takes two or three hours to walk. Su Mu was dressed in a blue coarse cloth dress, and the patches on her head really couldn't be repaired, and the sleeves and placket on her chest were dirty. The bun is a little loose, the cheeks are full of furrows, and a pair of cloudy eyes are slightly vicissitudes.
It's only been less than a month since they met, and they seem to be several years older, and Zhao Laosan didn't know what to say for a while.
Seeing her son-in-law, Su's mother immediately grabbed his arm with tears in her eyes, "Son-in-law, last time you took Mi'er back to the door and taught the unruly one at home a lesson." I didn't expect his leg to be just a little better, and he couldn't withstand the temptation. Confused, I simply lived in this gambling house and disappeared for several days. ”
"Is my mother planting all the fields at home?" When Zhao Laosan left last time, he deliberately turned over the fields at home before leaving. I was afraid that Su Binghuai and the Gu family would be idle all day long and miss the spring ploughing season.
"My son-in-law turned over the field, and I sowed corn and wheat in the field, and I planted some peppers and eggplants. But my unfortunate loser has lost all the fields, and the crops in the fields have been planted in vain, and only the broken thatched hut has not yet been exported. Su Mu said with a handful of snot and tears, Zhao Laosan hurriedly supported his mother-in-law, frowning.
"Where are those two now?" Zhao Laosan didn't speak much, and said a few words coldly.
"I lingered at the door of the gambling house for a few days, but the people at the gambling house just wouldn't let me in, and I am afraid that the two of them will die inside." Su Mu shook her head and sighed, the placket on her chest was already soaked with a large patch.
"Let's go! I'll check it out! After Zhao Laosan finished speaking, he carried a cage of chickens in his hand and walked quickly to the gambling house in the town.
Su Mu followed behind, pulled her sleeves, and wiped the tears on her face. Because I hadn't eaten or drunk for a few days, I felt dizzy when my steps were a little faster.
When I arrived at the gambling house, there were many guards at the door, and it was better to say that they were the guards of the gambling house, but to put it bluntly, they were some ruffians in the town. He spends his days in the fields and in the streets, and he cheats these people out of their money.
"This strong man, if you are here to have fun, we will accompany you, but look at your menacing appearance, you are not here to play!" The two saw that Zhao Laosan's eyes were cold, and they walked quickly to the door of the gambling house, and they knew that they were looking for someone.
"Get out of the way, or I'll set fire to your gambling house!" Zhao Laosan's feet were more than half a step taller than these two people, his thin lips opened, and his voice was full of coldness.
"Lao Tzu won't let me, you want to stir up trouble in our gambling house, you are still a little tender!" The slightly chubby man shook his legs, tilted his head and touched the braid on his head, and opened his mouth to reveal a mouthful of yellow teeth. There is also a tiger's head painted on his chest, which is very arrogant to look at.
As soon as the man finished speaking, he heard the sound of bones breaking, followed by a howling cry. The two guarding the door were dealt with by Zhao Laosan, and Su's mother saw that her son-in-law was so powerful, so she also followed behind and entered the gambling house together.
It's a big and spacious shop, and the people here smoke and drink and do everything, making it smoky. Because it was daytime and morning, there were not many people.
After entering, the owner of the gambling house was not there, Zhao Laosan thought about it, and he didn't want to make a lot of trouble too ridiculous, after all, he came here to make a living.
Many of them had spent the night in the gambling house, and it was time for Han Tian to sleep. After looking for it, there was no shadow of Su Binghuai and the others in the casino outside.
"Son-in-law, these two losers, they can't be separated and fed to dogs, right?" Although Su's mother kept cursing her son and daughter-in-law who were not angry, she still trembled and her head was a little dizzy when she thought that if they were fed to the dogs.
"Mother rest assured, although the world is chaotic in this world, the two of them are not too bold, and they don't have much money to rely on, so the casino owner will not make a big move." Zhao Laosan's voice was very small, and the gambling house was dusty, and the dice were scattered all over the place.
I searched all over the hall outside and didn't see anyone, so Zhao Laosan went inside to take a look. I didn't expect to see the two of them as soon as I entered, and these two people were kneeling on the ground to hammer the shoulders of a master.
"Su Binghuai is an animal!" When Su's mother saw her son and daughter-in-law, she couldn't help it anymore and scolded.
When Su Binghuai heard his mother's voice, he was stunned at first, and then slowly turned his head to see that Zhao Laosan was also there, and couldn't help but look lost: "Son-in-law...... Why is the son-in-law there? ”
I haven't seen Su Binghuai for a month, this person is so thin that he is out of shape, his eyes are sunken, the eyes are dark purple around his eyes, and his face is sallow and blue. If you look at it at night, it's like a ghost.
His wife, Gu Shi, although she was not thin, Bai Shengsheng's wrists were full of whip marks. A pair of hands roamed on the shoulders of a middle-aged uncle, although the man was in a state of half-sleep and half-awake, this hand was not honest, and he touched Gu's body. Although Gu is Zhao Laosan's sister-in-law, she is only one and a half years older than Su Mi, and she has not yet given birth. is also a rough man in the countryside, but he has grown up pampered since he was a child, and he has never done any work in the fields, and his figure is still graceful and charming.
Seeing that his wife was humiliated like this by other men, Su Binghuai was indifferent. When Su Mu saw this, she was even more angry, and grabbed Gu's arm, "You still have to be shameless, the face of this Su family has been lost by you, why do you want to touch other men if you have a man." ”
"Let go of me, I'll have to ask your son!" Gu pushed Su Mu away, threw himself at the man's feet, knelt on the ground, and beat the man's knees with both hands.
"Tell me, aren't you ashamed of your woman?" Su Mu twisted Su Binghuai's ears and cried bitterly.
"Mother, this Gu Chun is no longer my woman!"
"What, you say it again!"
Su Binghuai knelt on the ground, tilted his head and looked impatient: "Mother, this Gu Chun Tou has been retired by me, and now she is Uncle Xie's." ”
only heard two loud slaps, Su Binghuai covered his face: "Mother, this Uncle Xie paid off the gambling debts for the two of us, and it's not too much for this Gu Chunqi to serve for a few days!" ”
"You two get the hell out of here!" Zhao Laosan's thin lips opened, and in the dim gambling house, his eyes were extremely cold, like water in a deep pool.
"The man can get out, but this woman? You have to stay with me! This Uncle Xie finally opened his mouth, slowly opened his eyes, and looked at Zhao Laosan who was speaking.
Originally, he was holding the Buddha beads in his hand and turning, but when he raised his eyes, the movements in his hand stopped, and his eyes widened in surprise: "Where did I see you?" ”
