Chapter 8: Courage
Sheng Laosan also fell asleep after eating Wowotou, he had a pain in his body that night, he didn't sleep on weekdays, he heard the sound of Suo Suo from the room half asleep, but he didn't care, and he slept again. It wasn't until the next day that Sheng Laosan's face darkened, and he finally knew what was going on last night—it turned out to be the sound of Yu Meihua's little hooves cleaning things at home.
They actually went back to their parents' house, and Sheng Laosan was even more ruthless in his heart-
There is a kind of two people who don't want to come back for the rest of their lives, and when they see it, Yu Meihua and that cub have some faces!
············
He didn't know. Yu Meihua was really angry this time. Although she knew that Sheng Laosan was not as good to her as before, she didn't expect that she would be such a person in his heart. After she took the things, she took Zixi back to her parents' house quietly, Yu Meihua's family lives in the next village, and it can be reached in half an hour if the distance is fast.
Therefore, on the second day of the first lunar month, the two came to Yu's house early in the morning.
Yu Meihua doesn't often talk to the family about her recent situation, the family conditions are not good, most of the women, and the brother is a person who doesn't pay attention, and it's annoying to say it, when the jade mother asks, although she didn't say what the reason is, but where will the Yu Meihua family not know?
In Yu Meihua's family, in addition to her mother, she also has an elder brother and sister-in-law, who are Yu Facai and Liu.
Yu Meihua's mother asked her to marry Sheng Laosan, also because she liked that the third child's family still had a little land. The conditions in this village are good, and Sheng Laosan didn't have a good temper when he was young, and he was willing to contribute, so he was relieved to hand over his daughter. How do you know that Sheng Laosan became more and more bastard after getting married, and he also regretted it a little in his heart. I knew that it was better to find someone with average conditions than to be beaten and scolded every day like Yumeihua.
She asked quietly, but Yu Meihua didn't answer, but the look on her face already said everything. The jade mother knew in her heart, so she put the things brought by the jade plum blossom on the ground, and said: "Since you are here, let's stay for a few more days before leaving, I haven't been home for a long time, there are many people, and the house is more lively." ”
Yu Meihua nodded, and when she turned around again, she couldn't hold back the tears in her eyes.
She hurriedly wiped away her tears and went to the back to help.
Yu Meihua was actually angry for a while, and after waiting for the day, she really didn't dare to go back. Sheng Laosan beat and scolded at every turn. Although Sheng Ling'er warned her this time, what is the use of warning for people like him?
When I thought of what Sheng Laosan did on weekdays, I wanted to drag it in my mother's house even more and didn't want to go back.
This delay is three or four days.
············
Sheng Laosan over there.
Although he fell heavily at that time, it was not as good as Sheng Ling'er's time, and his head was clearer the next day.
Yumei is not at home, and there is no one to cook at all. He has been lazy for decades, although there is food at home, but it is more difficult for him to do it than the Arabian Nights, the first few days are just steamed a few sweet potatoes to solve it, and then it is more and more difficult, I feel that my body is boring, at this time I remembered the good of the jade plum blossom, she didn't say anything else at home, cooking is not a matter of worrying at all.
But Sheng Laosan didn't feel that it was his fault, but hated Sheng Ling'er even more, if it weren't for her, how could he beat Jade Plum Blossom, and his wife ran away, it was all caused by Sheng Ling'er.
At a young age, he knows right and wrong, his own woman and son can fight as much as he wants, can he use a little girl to get ahead?!
Sheng Laosan finally couldn't help it on the fifth day, he rummaged through the cabinets at home, and finally found a few pennies, and was ready to go to the brother's house who drank in the past to order something to eat, and it would be better to come back with a few eggs.
When I went out, I was blown by the wind, and it was so cold······
The place where he was beaten was a little swollen, and it was even more inconvenient to walk.
It was easy to get to his brother's house, but it turned out that he was not there, so he hurriedly went to find a nearby family, and they had talked together in the past, who knew that although the people inside were so loud and angry, the family was so poor that they couldn't open the pot.
A thin layer of rice porridge in the rusty cauldron doesn't even see a single meat, which makes people lose their appetite when they look at it······
Hearing his intention, the man gave him a steamed bun, and said, "I'm really sorry Brother Sheng, you see that there is nothing at home, otherwise I will definitely keep you for dinner." ”
Although Sheng Laosan was rude in his words and deeds at home, he couldn't beat outsiders for no reason, so he held his stomach and left stupidly.
The more he thought about it on the way, the angrier he became.
Unknowingly, he walked to Sheng Ling'er's house.
When he arrived at the gate of her yard, Sheng Laosan found that he had taken the wrong path.
In fact, he didn't think about what to do to Sheng Ling'er's family in the future, but he couldn't settle down in his heart.
When he really saw Sheng Ling'er's voice, he had a somewhat vicious thought, which suddenly took shape in his heart.
··············
On the way, he also ran into Uncle Liu. Liu Qingyuan is a good man in the village, he also studied in his early years, even if he doesn't like people, he can still get by in the face, and he won't encounter a dispute between people's tongues. When Shen Laosan saw him, he casually asked a few words about the jade plum blossom: "Has Uncle Qingyuan seen the plum blossom?" ”
It's hard to say like Sheng Laosan, Yu Meihua has returned to her parents' home. But he still wants to save face. But Liu Qingyuan knew as soon as he guessed that something was probably going on between the two of them. He himself was not good at wading through this troubled water, so he said: "I didn't see it, I just came out of the house, and I am going to go to the field to see, is it the plum blossom?" Sheng Laosan couldn't hide his emotions, a pair of bloodshot eyes, and he turned out a little ruthlessly at the moment, realizing that Liu Qingyuan was still beside him, and said with a forced smile: "Then Uncle Qingyuan should be busy!" I went around the village. ”
Liu Qingyuan smiled and turned to leave.
After walking for a while, he suddenly came back and slowly turned his head, and when he saw Shen Laosan's menacing back, his heart jumped at the moment, and he felt that this matter was not good. Liu Qingyuan has some friendship with the Yu family, otherwise Sheng Laosan would not ask, he was afraid that Sheng Laosan would go to find fault, so he hurriedly walked from the path, ready to remind them. This Sheng Laosan is very confused, don't really have anything happen at that time.
Liu Qingyuan walked quickly, he was afraid that Sheng Laosan would arrive at the Yu family first, and it would be too late by then, so he sped up his foot strength and trotted to the Yu family, and the Yu family was a little strange when he saw Liu Qingyuan coming.
Jade Mother asked.
"Why did you come here suddenly and didn't say hello in advance?"
Liu Qingyuan shook his head and told her something briefly.
"I met your third child on the road, and he asked me about you." He said to Yu Meihua, and then estimated his thoughts: "You'd better be prepared." As soon as Yu Meihua heard her mention Sheng Laosan, her face immediately changed, this Sheng Laosan wouldn't really be ready to do anything, right?
"What was he like?" She said nervously.
Liu Qingyuan said: "It's like ...... Not too happy. ”
"In my opinion, you'd better find a place to hide, lest the two of you get into a quarrel." There was some sympathy in Liu Qingyuan's eyes, the Yumeihua family was in the next village, but Liu Qingyuan was from Shengjia Village, and he knew more than the Yu family.
As soon as he said this, the Yu family knew that he must have been beaten before coming back.
When Liu Qingyuan left, the Yu family was a little panicked, and Yu's mother looked at the only male in the family and asked Yu Facai: "Is this ...... What can I do? ”
Who knows that Jade has no idea about making a fortune.
He only muttered, "This ······ What can I do? Sheng Laosan can't stop him when he fights. Why don't we go out and take shelter? ”
In fact, if he had an idea, Yu Meihua would not be beaten and scolded by Sheng Laosan, even if he really couldn't beat it, as long as he showed a strength that would not stop, Sheng Laosan would have to weigh a few points.
But the conditions of the Yu family are not good, and they are not as confident as others. Yu Facai's body is not as strong as other people who do farm work, and he was a little cowardly when he met before. Once I heard the gossip of the people in the village, I couldn't help it, so I went up to Sheng Laosan and said a few words. Sheng Laosan is still a little affectionate towards Yu Meihua, in the end, he is the one he married, and he kept his hand when he beat people. For Yu Facai, a relative who has always looked down on him, he didn't leave his hand.
Yu Facai is also unlucky, Sheng Laosan went up and was beaten fat. After that time, Yu Facai didn't dare to talk to Sheng Laosan anymore, and when he saw him, he even wanted to see a mouse and a cat, and he didn't even dare to raise his head.
But the jade mother said: "It's a big deal, our whole family reasoned with him, and life can't go on like this." ”
The mother who has always been weak said this, Yu Meihua's guilt is even heavier, and she didn't help her family in the first place. So many years. Sheng Laosan's family was defeated, and he couldn't subsidize anything at all. Now something happens to the family, but the family has to deal with it.
Looking at the mother's graying hair and rickety body······
I don't know where the courage came from prompted her to say: "Don't worry, it's nothing, I'll go and see, Sheng Laosan won't do anything to me." ”
Saying that, she bent down and said to Zixi: "Mother will come to pick you up in a few days." ”
Zixi, who has always been very obedient, refused this time.
"I'll go back with you."
Yu Meihua was just about to say a few words, but she saw that the young man's eyes were clear, and there was no trace of cowardice in his eyes.
······ This kid ······ When has it grown so big······
Yu Meihua found that she was really negligent, a fifteen-year-old boy, very fast, although Sheng Laosan didn't like it, often said that Zixi was as thin as a monkey, but in Yu Meihua's opinion, this was not the case at all, Zixi's figure was not as strong as the man who was busy with farming, but he was not thin to the extent of skin and bones, but his hands and feet were long.
Compared with the people in the village, she couldn't describe it, but the feeling of that moment just now was ······ It's a bit like ······
- Sheng Ling'er's indifference.
Yu Meihua thought of the girl of the Sheng family, and couldn't help but think, Zixi has been with the girl of the Sheng family for a long time, maybe it is a good thing······
