Chapter 29: I Want a Divorce
Hurriedly leaned over and picked up Mengyao.
Erxi also came over.
Meng Yao didn't say a word and walked towards the outhouse.
My cousin was busy for a while, and brought hot rice porridge, and Mengyao drank it one by one. When everything returned to normal, my cousin breathed a sigh of relief.
"How many babies are these?"
"Three."
Erxi replied dejectedly.
"Oh, this baby must be protected, I hope it is a boy, and the two children in the future, one will be complete like a son and a daughter, and it will also be a companion."
"yes." After listening to the auspicious words, Erxi's face, which was half crying and not smiling, bloomed with a happy smile.
Knowing that they had escaped from the gate of Daliang Hospital, at the most critical moment, and that there had been a strong support from the restaurateurs and vendors in the bazaar, my cousin quickly covered her heart.
"Thank goodness, it's too dangerous, let's live here first, how long will I live?" The cousin asked seriously.
"There are about two months left, and my mother will live a good life."
"Oh, my aunt can't be wrong."
"When I entered the village just now, did I see that there were people staring at me before and after?"
"No one, it should all be resting, I watched vigilantly before and after, and no one found out all the way."
"That's good, if no one finds out, just leave her here. You have to hurry home to take care of the old lady, there is a broken bicycle at home, it is estimated that the tire is out of gas, let's ride it first, anyway, it is faster than walking. ”
Hearing this, Erxi's face-colored face continued to bloom with a half-crying and non-smiling demeanor. The cart walked out of Shatuozi Village, but still did not meet anyone, so he rode on the cart and walked across the village and ran to the lotus pond.
The bicycle was walking on the dirt road with difficulty and twisting, and the bike was really broken, except that the bell did not ring everywhere, and it was still hanging on the ass, and finally he got up and pedaled like that. However, after a long time, the roots of my thighs were very sore.
It was easy to get home, but she had already slept, leaving only the old woman crying on the kang, thinking that the consequences of being arrested and taken to the hospital today were unimaginable. The smell of grass and trees in the house is very strong, and I guess I just finished praying.
Seeing Erxi coming in, she was surprised, "How is it?" ”
Erxi smiled, "I ran out, at my cousin's house." ”
"Huh?" The old woman wiped her face with her sleeve, and was suddenly overjoyed, and laughed to reveal a few broken teeth.
Early the next morning.
The old woman got up to cook for the first time, and for so long, she has been pressuring the daughter-in-law who lacks virtue to do it, and now she is not at home, so she can only do it herself. It's still cake porridge and coriander mixed with soy sauce, and shredded green radish with brown sugar.
I couldn't see Mengyao, and my heart became much smoother.
As long as I can't see her, I feel like I'm willing to do anything. But as long as she is there, she doesn't want to do anything, she doesn't want to do it. When I see her, I will be angry, anyway, if I don't give birth to a son, I won't let her feel good for a moment. It's strange that you said that he didn't give birth to a son at a young age, but gave birth to some money-losing goods.
Forget it, I don't want that broom star anymore.
Every day, Mengyao is at my cousin's house, helping to cook and organize the sundries, and time flies.
Suddenly, one day.
Another relative came with news that the second uncle's family had died. This frightened Meng Yao, and secretly thought in her heart, as long as it wasn't the third uncle's family, she prayed silently. Because I lived in my third uncle's house for so long, that time was the happiest. Every day, the third aunt eats a bowl and passes a bowl, often bakes boxes together, all of them are meat filling, and she has always been very patient to take care of her, and there are several meals of fish and meat every week.
At this moment, Meng Yao was secretly standing by the door and lying on his stomach, listening to the person who delivered the letter in the outhouse.
"The eldest son of the second uncle always quarreled with his daughter-in-law, and on the day of the match, the eldest son did not agree to marry this woman as a daughter-in-law, but the family forced him to marry. What about my 20-year-old son? I haven't experienced anything, and how assertive are you? As soon as she said that she disagreed, the second aunt said, 'Then you still have big feet?' When you are young, you don't know what you are. ’
But the eldest son quibbled, 'I have big feet, but I don't lack heart, but that woman lacks heart, I just don't agree.'" ’
In the end, the parents of the dead and alive pressed to agree.
After agreeing, the two of them did not live in tune. gave birth to two children, the mother didn't cook for a long time, hungry and full, and the eldest daughter was abducted by a rough man from the neighboring village, just 15 years old; The son was also dropped out of school. ”
"Why drop out of school?" My cousin made tea while listening, and asked coldly.
"Because my son has no one to take care of all day, he is ridiculed and dressed when he goes to school. The result? In a hurry, he picked up a knife and slashed his classmates, and the school naturally expelled him. Hey, maybe it's adolescence too. ”
"This?" The second cousin was also speechless, "Didn't you ask for the eldest cousin?" Didn't I hear that my eldest cousin was an English teacher at school? ”
"I begged, I also looked for the school, and I heard that he cut the principal's relative."
When my cousin heard this, she was completely speechless.
"It's not a good day at all, the two of them are not at home, how can they be obsessed with gambling, but I heard that the daughter-in-law who was beaten to death is passively obsessed. Actually, her original intention was to supervise her husband, whether she was at the gambling table and a stinky fox spirit who came to the village from other places.
As a result, the two of them owed a lot of gambling debts at the poker table, and often quarreled when they returned home. Noisy and noisy, the man likes to use his hands, picks up a bowl and throws it out, just hitting the door of his daughter-in-law's head. Tut-tut, you said that the big man of 170 finally lay straight on the ground and never got up. ”
"Well, it's scary, so no one cares? Beat to the death? ”
The second cousin asked.
"No, my mother's family is making a fuss, this is the eldest daughter of someone else, there is still a saying. As a result, the official tossed and the forensic doctor came. Oh, don't mention it, that intestine, heart, liver and lungs, all cut away. The whole person is empty, and at the end the skin is sewn, and the filling inside is actually straw. ”
"Hey, it's really pitiful, I can't live in peace when I die, and I don't have dignity." The second cousin sighed at the filling and wiped her tears.
"Who's to say it isn't? It seems that the twisted melon is not sweet, and on that day, this family business should not be done, or the second aunt also made a mistake. A bad marriage will not end well except for birth and death. ”
Mengyao listened to it all over his ears, and finally burst into tears.
Since giving birth to her eldest daughter, she has also sighed about her daily situation. Yes, me and Erxi, what should it be? Holding her sore belly, she didn't dare to be too emotional, because the fetus in her womb didn't allow her to be sad.
The consequences of a bad marriage are either birth or death, this sentence repeatedly slapped his chest.
Can I get a divorce?
But can I go back? From the mother's family to the entire family, there is no divorce, is it that my mother is not good at being a person in the family and even the whole village?
His life is like duckweed, like grass mustard, like dandelion, swaying left and right, swaying in half life, but fate can't help himself to take a breath. If you want to take care of people and animals harmlessly, it is impossible to get out of it successfully.
Meng Yao endured, tears were still rolling, in order not to make a sound, she covered her mouth and nose, and continued to lie on the door frame to listen carefully.
"Was that captured?"
"Definitely take it. And as soon as this incident came out, the second aunt rolled and crawled again, ran to Hebei Province, dozens of miles away, and hid from the eldest daughter's cat, who was married far away. Otherwise, when the big nest of people's mother's family came into the door, wouldn't the first thing be to kill her old thing? ”
The second cousin nodded frequently.
"And then?"
Later, the perpetrator was brought to justice and imprisoned. But the rest of the children of the second uncle found the third uncle again, and the third uncle was still very good, so he didn't need the help of his children, so he went to the county by himself to find his colleagues who had forgotten the year when they were in the propaganda team together. Now my colleague Fei Huang Tengda is the director of the bureau, and the director makes a phone call to go out, explains the situation, and detains the murderer for only one week, and then releases him quickly. ”
"Oh, so easy?"
"Well, I heard that 6,000 yuan was given to the victim's family."
"It is said to be a lot, and if you marry a new daughter-in-law this year, this money is almost enough."
"yes, that's the end of it."
"Uh-huh, drink tea. There are also melon seeds. The second cousin entertained.
Meng Yao stood on the door frame for a long time, then turned around and slowly came to the bed. She was tired and tired, and wanted to lie down for a while to come back to her senses. Lying down, the sentence "life and death" continued to surge in my mind, and my heart was infinitely uncomfortable, and I gradually fell asleep.
This month is so fast, and the New Year is also fast.
After fifteen, Erxi took the rice balls made by the old mother's hands and rode a bicycle to the sand tuozi.
That village is so far away.
It looks like it's more than 20 miles away, and it hurts to ride a bike. Along the way, I was glad that there was not much snow this year, and the road was a little better.
Just out of the village.
I listened to a few magpies on the old poplar trees outside the village, fluttering their wings and calling non-stop. Maybe this one is a male fetus, and as soon as he left the village, he met a magpie to announce the good news. Erxi immediately became as light as a swallow, his blood was boiling, and he ran wildly all the way.
After entering the village, I hurriedly ran to my cousin's house.
Carrying the crushed peanut brown sugar stuffed rice balls made by my mother, made of white glutinous rice, it was smooth and delicious when cooked. The cousin carried the rice balls, squinted her eyes with a smile, looked at the rice balls tight and round, and asked casually, "Auntie's body is quite tough, right?" ”
Erxi nodded hurriedly.
"Nice, you're hungry, aren't you? Why don't I cook some and give it to you to eat first?" ”
"No, sister, I'll take her away, and no one in the village will pay attention to it when it's over 15, so I quietly pick her up and no one will find out. For so long, it has been very troublesome to be bothered by my sister. ”
"It's all a family, you're welcome."
At this time, Meng Yao came out with a curtain on the door.
She still has a duck egg face, short hair, and her skin is raised when she never goes out, she is more watery and white than ordinary girls, the peach blossoms on her sideburns are pink and tender again, her upper body is still shabby rubber powder sweater, and her lower body is the broken army pants that Erxi eliminated when she was pregnant last time, and black velvet shoes under her feet. The more simple it is, the more it highlights the beauty she should have cultivated this winter.
I hope that the years can be gentle with each other, and don't quickly defeat the beauty.
Mengyao was easy to get rid of the devastation of wind and frost in this winter, and calmed down some of the luster that should be, although most girls of this age are shy and shy, going around and around, looking for their sweethearts.
But she got married at the age of 18 and became a mother several times when she was just 25 years old.
The belly has long been very different from the girl, the whole is a pattern of colors, and it extends to the inside of the entire thigh of the knee, which is densely covered with brown and white patterns, and the inner side of the belly is thick and thick fat layer.
Fortunately, I am tall, otherwise......
For girls, all these things that destroy the beauty should be such a terrifying existence.
"Let's go!" Erxi's half-crying face was calm.
Meng Yao lowered his eyes and acquiesced.
Holding a huge belly, clumsy like carrying ten basketballs, she went to the back room to get a rotten horse meat coat and put it on her body, without any luggage, and followed Erxi out of the courtyard. The dog in the courtyard jumped up, pulled the rope and barked wildly, so that when they finally parted, the words of the cousin's advice could not be heard clearly.
The cousin did not send it far away, silently guarding the door, perhaps in this space, silence is the best measure, not to be discovered, and to arrive safely as soon as possible is also the most important.
The cold wind blows all the way, the residual snow soaks the road, the thin cold curls, although the spring is cold, but there is no majesty of midwinter, the willows swaying gracefully on the embankment from a distance, it is obviously another year of drunken spring smoke.
Erxi pedaled the bicycle hard, but he hadn't arrived home yet, and he was already soaked with sweat. In the spring, the wind was high and soaked, and I didn't dare to take off my shabby coat, so I could only run forward desperately.
