Chapter 16: Creation and Making

After crying enough, he suddenly opened his mouth, and a mouthful of mucus vomited out of his mouth and sticked to the back of Erxi's hand.

"You little!" Erxi ignored the image, cursed rudely, and was about to slap him, but looking at the monster that was not as long as his little arm, he didn't know where to put this slap, so he swallowed his anger and put down the slap fiercely.

At this time, crystal tears flowed out of the corners of Mengyao's eyes, and the tears flowed down the corners of his eyes, sliding down to his sideburns, and suddenly the peach blossoms were a little eclipsed. Some of them also roll down and drip into the ears. Her ears and eyes were itching, but she didn't want to move at all.

For the time being, it is enough to see with your eyes and hear with your ears.

Because of the birth of a female baby, it has completely changed. She had already heard her mother-in-law's swearing, and slapped her cheek with her withered old hand, and that side of her cheek was still hot and painful.

And she can also feel that the child does not please the whole family at all, and she is also implicated. She lay there quietly, without much thought, and let the blood flow one by one until more blood stains were black.

Erxi sat on the bench next to the wallcupboard, stupidly. Looking at the pictures of baby boys on the wall, his attitude was indifferent. I didn't leave or rejoice, and I didn't want to go to the house to coax the old woman.

The rooster crows three times.

Finally stayed up until morning.

In the early days, I couldn't sleep at night because I couldn't think about my dreams, but now, I tossed and turned because I gave birth to a baby girl and slapped my face...... Smoke after cigarette, like a divine fire solitaire, passed a small fire, and the house was full of smoke, forced to squeeze out of the curtain, and desperately escaped to the outhouse.

Erxi's black rough hands rubbed the pair of wrinkled eyes, tired and abnormal, but there was no sleepiness at all.

The rooster crows a few more times.

Erxi still ignored Meng Yao, and didn't look at the child again. I didn't hear any noise in the outer room, and finally got up and went to the east room, where I saw my mother lying on the kang, and her eyes were swollen after crying.

She collapsed under the covers, not yet rising.

Seeing Erxi coming, the old woman just sighed and didn't say anything. Today, she didn't have the heart to make breakfast, even if she burned incense and prayed, she was depressed in her heart, hated Mengyao for eating her and drinking her, and didn't let her do any work, and in the end she deceived and fooled her. Why? Spend a lot of money to buy such a money-losing goods, can't give birth to a male baby, and still serve her as a living fairy? It's really a crime, and it deserves a thousand deaths.

Erxi knew she was awake.

"Mom, I'm going to make porridge."

"Boil, what to eat, all starve to death. In this world, I can see through it, and I want to die and beg, what kind of life do I have to live for the embarrassing digging of pits? ”

The old woman remembered that she was pregnant in October, and she was busy with her life, which can be described as doing her best, using a full 360 volt high voltage to release energy to serve.

But in the end, they were deceived.

Her swollen eyes immediately shed tears again, full of lovelessness. Seeing that the big placket was already stained with snot and tears, she still couldn't stop resentment, and the tears of grievance finally dried up, so she didn't comb her face or wash her face, and sat on the kang for half a day in the morning.

Meng Yao also knew that he was at a loss, and he didn't dare to open his eyes, let alone say that he was thirsty and hungry.

Even though the blood in her lower body was bubbling and rushing, she didn't dare to move, and in the end, she could feel the blood seeping from her waist to her back, but she could only stand up quietly and silently.

For fear of angering which crater.

Erxi sat on the bench, grabbed a head of gray curly hair, and finally said to his mother, "If this baby doesn't work, then let's have another one, and if the second child doesn't work, I'll come back and talk about it, how about it?" ”

The old woman's cloudy eyes, covered by swollen eyelids, could not see the slightest expression at all, and finally, she finally figured it out. But what if you can't figure it out?

"Okay, then maybe the big head is a girl, don't give birth to a girl again, and the next one must give birth to a boy."

But when I think about it, I have new worries.

"Hey, now it's getting stricter and stricter, and having many children, there won't be so many opportunities at all, which is a key."

"Then let's hide in Tibet, anyway, the first child is a girl, and we won't let you have a second child, if you don't hide and hide, it's completely impossible."

Mother listened and thought for a while, and suddenly she got up and sat cross-legged.

Actually, this night. She didn't take off her clothes at all, and she was still wearing the skin of the old cotton jacket and old cotton pants. If winter comes, put on a set of cotton pants and jackets, and in winter, you must also use a thumb-wide black cloth strap to carefully wrap the trouser legs to ensure that the legs do not leak.

It's noon.

She didn't say anything, got off the kang, picked up firewood and started cooking silently.

Erxi asked the old woman from the outhouse.

"Can you do it for three days?"

The old woman frowned when she heard this, and waved it with one free hand, signaling to stop the topic quickly, looking crooked.

"A full moon, then?" Erxi is not dead yet.

When the old woman heard this, she impatiently waved one hand, hinting to stop the topic quickly.

"Nothing, then?"

More than forty, the second joy of being a father for the first time, did not give any ceremony, and his heart was a little lost.

The old woman didn't look up.

She sat down on the wooden bench and began to burn the fire, no longer turning her head to pay attention to him, and occasionally smoothed her chest a few times with her hands, which was very stuffy. I wiped the tears on my cheeks again, and the tears of the night dried up on my skin and felt itchy. But a black mark of grass gray immediately flashed on his face, but fortunately, the original skin was already yellow and black, and the black of the finger length was not very eye-catching.

The fire in the stove has burned out.

The old woman suddenly picked up the burning stick and struck the bellows violently, so that she could vent her anger and be fooled for so long while she herself was kept in the dark, and she was stupid to pay for the fool. Calling me for nothing? What qualifications does she have? It's not worth it, let her mother suck her back into her stomach again, and go back to the furnace again, hum!

Erxi stood in the outhouse, and for a while the smoke and fire were burning, so he picked up the curtain and entered the westhouse.

Westinghouse.

I inadvertently looked around at the picture of the smiling boy again, and my heart was sour, and I suddenly felt funny and ironic.

The baby girl on the kang was probably hungry, and she began to cry again, looking at her toothless mouth and the round tongue, it felt strange. Isn't the tongue pointy? Why doesn't this product even have the tip of the tongue? And there is a slit in the middle of the two petals, like the Arabic numeral 3 lying on its stomach.

With doubts, Erxi turned around in disgust, picked up the curtain and went out again, never wanting to see this cheap old woman who gave birth to a female monster.

Meng Yao has slowly opened his eyes.

Hey, it's changed, and everything is different. Her heart was gloomy and sad. I wanted to have a good start for the first child and continue to be pampered at home, but I didn't want to bring out a baby girl, which caused her to be affected and extremely disliked.

It's all this baby girl who ruined everything for herself.

She struggled to sit up, really wanting to turn back the clock and go back to the past when she was not pregnant, or when she was just pregnant, Erxi surrounded her every day and asked for warmth.

He always asked, "What are you going to eat today?" What does Ming eat? Drink the porridge quickly when it's cold, and wear more when it's cold.

On weekdays, he has a big personality. He often brought the clothes himself, and put them on for her happily and solemnly, even if he buttoned them one button at a time, he was never annoyed.

While buckle, while looking left and right, big baby and little beauty, shouting non-stop.

This whole winter is idle.

He always shuttles frequently in the market, even if there are a few bags of cotton peaches to choose, he would rather leave them for a few more days, he has to run out, not just to buy that small bite of food for himself.

Just ask, Hexi fried cake, Xianghe meat cake, Yangcun dried cake, Mafang tofu shred, Hebei Tun stinky tofu, ticket grain donkey meat......

What did he not buy to please himself?

But now all of this is over, just because of this baby girl. She remembered that she really wanted to crawl over, if she crawled over slowly, she would definitely be able to strangle this crumpled female monster at once, this broom star harms people. Strangled her, and all the love and mercy of the past would be restored.

She wanted to get up and flip.

But at this moment, Erxi came in.

She stopped her actions in an instant, and she must not reveal her intentions, neither can nor dare, otherwise she will add countless more crimes.

Looking at Erxi running towards the crying baby girl, Meng Yao turned his face to the wall on the left, looking at the baby boy in the picture on the kang, tears couldn't help but flow. It was comical self-deprecation, aggrieved and helpless, weak, and crystal clear tears.

When she came out of the countryside of Zhangjiakou, her mother said that she should not cry after giving birth to a child before she was confined, otherwise she would suffer from eye diseases in the future.

But I was just 19 years old, how could I have eye disease?

But I couldn't help but believe it, so I quickly stopped my tears and let the haze in my heart clog up.

At this time, Erxi had already grabbed the crying baby girl and threw it away, "Here you go, don't let this ghost cry wolf." ”

I can't help Meng Yao want to be willing or not, the child has already thrown it over. Her slender arms caught it at once. The child's cheeks rubbed against his chest, and his mouth was furled and his little nose and mouth arched everywhere, as if he was looking for something.

When Meng Yao was crying just now, she only felt that her chest was swollen and painful, and the baby girl began to rub her and dodge, full of the shyness and embarrassment of a first-time mother. Later, he blushed and let the child arch back and forth, and when the child sucked the first sip of milk, the crying stopped abruptly.

Erxi kept wiping under Mengyao's body, put on new wide velvet pants, threw out the mattress under him, and replaced it with a thicker one, and covered it with plastic sheeting, so as not to be contaminated by blood again.

Open the wall cabinet under the kang.

took out the packets of pink toilet paper that had been prepared a long time ago, unfolded them one by one, and laid them flat under the body for Mengyao, who had finished feeding. Erxi didn't say a word, and inadvertently looked up and saw the baby boy on the wall, and his face sank like water.

He thought while doing his work - these good things were all prepared in advance for the expected 2 male babies, but right?

Hey, create evil, block the heart.

A girl loses money and goods. Also worth it? Also worthy? The family has been kept in the dark for so long?

It's just a fool.

I'm a lot older, and I don't have a few good days left, so why don't I hurry up and grab a boy while my body is tough, but is this? I really don't have a blindfold, I don't have eyesight. Hey, why are you so unlucky, you can stuff your teeth when you drink cold water, God can really make trouble.

Thinking of this, Erxi rubbed his sore heart, let out a long breath, and suddenly felt that the soles of his feet were light and a little unstable on his feet. I seem to be tired, and I feel that the activity of my body has been hollowed out in an instant.

Meng Yao didn't say anything.

She lay calmly on the kang and looked at the baby girl wrapped in a small quilt on her side in a daze. Tired of seeing the baby, he stared at the intricate kang mat flowers and was silent. A bane, a man who angers the whole family, what qualifications can he have?
