Chapter 6: The Peach Grove at the River Embankment

Jiang Fuxin came to the ancestral house, pushed open the squeaky door, a screen is a green bamboo forest in front of the pine crane Chengxiang, bypassing the screen bamboo forest, there is a grape in the yard, under the grape trellis is a table of eight immortals, next to the table are the old lady Jiang and the old man Jiang Guijin, not far away there is a table of meals, steaming steamed buns, a basket of boiled sweet potatoes, and a few plates of brine peanuts, cold cucumbers, pickled soybeans in sauce, and a pot of noodle soup. In the kitchen, the three Jiang Fulan sisters are still cleaning up, the second and second daughter-in-law of the Jiang family, Han Mei, and the third daughter-in-law, Jiang Huayu, are sprinkling water in the yard, which looks peaceful, but everyone's eyes are full of lingering sadness, yesterday's funeral is still vivid, but today's topic is ·····, seeing Jiang Fuxin coming, they all came over slowly.

"Fuxin, come and sit!" Jiang Guijin looked at his haggard son, very distressed, this God, how can he torture people like this, the eldest son was not satisfied when he married his daughter-in-law, the angry old woman did not eat for three days and three nights, and finally let the eldest son agree to the marriage, but he was also dissatisfied, and gave birth to three daughters in a row before he let him hold his grandson, but the eldest son was always not very satisfied with his daughter-in-law, so he made do with it for nineteen years, and he didn't quarrel or fight in the past few years, but the eldest daughter-in-law was suffering from Shen Zhen and went west, which was all owed in the previous life!

"Daddy!" Jiang Fuxin sat on the small chair next to him, not knowing what to say, now he didn't know what to do like a wandering ghost, he didn't know his wife's location at home, and now that he was gone, it was like the sky had fallen.

"Fu Xin, wait for you to go to the peach grove on the east side of the riverbank, your third sister-in-law and third brother are waiting for you, follow them to a place, see the woman, if it's about the same, make do with it!" The old lady still did not give up her desire to reorganize the family for her son, and she always wanted to do what she wanted to do.

"Mother, if you let the children know, you won't make a fuss!" Jiang Fuxin remembered the trouble in Yan'er last night, and felt a little uneasy, this is not the same as before, when his wife was there in the past, when did the family whisper to talk, the children saw him and walked down the aisle with low eyebrows, this wife just left, and he was not confident enough.

"Look at you, when did you become like this, Xiuzhen is gone, your days are still long, it is difficult to live alone with five children, fortunately, God still hasn't given up on you, there is a widow in Mazhuang Village, the man was beaten to death for stealing things, and your age is also matched, your third sister-in-law wants to start a family for you again, and you will have breakfast and you will go to see!" The old lady finally spoke up. If the eldest son can't make a family, she won't close her eyes even if she dies.

"Mother, I haven't taken care of family affairs, this Xiuzhen is gone, I don't know what to do all of a sudden, usually she takes care of the house, I am out to make money, no matter how difficult the things in the kiln factory are, I don't feel difficult, now it's too late to understand her embarrassment, I'm sorry Xiuzhen, I can't marry another woman just after she died." Jiang Fuxin's heart was weak when he thought of that sad face, he thought of Xiuzhen because he was in trouble!

"That's why I'm going to find you a woman quickly, otherwise the family won't know what the mess will be." The old lady understands her son's mind the most, this bastard has never bothered, if he is allowed to live with five children, it will not make him embarrassed to die, fortunately, God has eyes, there is such a suitable remarriage object, I can only be sorry for Xiuzhen, now even a widow is very sought-after.

"And if the children are against ······?" Jiang Fuxin was a little moved, as long as he didn't take care of the messy family affairs, he said that there was a woman in the family who was better than the desolation of June like last night.

"Wait for your eldest sister to take the child to live in her house for a few days, then go to Fuyun's house for a few days, and finally go to Fuling's house for a few days, turn around like this, and when you return home, it's time to start school, go to school four, and the rest of the weir will be easy to do, do you think this will work?" The old lady is really thoughtful, so after a circle, it is time for school to start, and the child has no time to oppose it even if he wants to!

"Big brother, this can only be the case, after all, there are not many opportunities to find such a suitable woman, and if you miss it, you may be a bachelor for the rest of your life!" Jiang Fuyun also came over to persuade her, there was such a miserable example in her village, so she agreed with her mother's approach.

"Big brother, if you really look at this woman, you can't wronged the children, people say that if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather, you can't be such a stepfather." Jiang Fuling is the eldest, and her heart is also the most realistic, she is worried that her eldest brother will wronged her nephews and nieces after remarrying, after all, there are too many bloody examples, I hope that the eldest brother will not be such a man.

"Okay, let your eldest brother remarry just to take care of a few children, just say these things in your own home, you can't say it again in the future, you know?" The old lady glared at her little daughter angrily, which pot is really not opened.

"Hmm!" Jiang Fuling still felt something was wrong in her heart, after all, her sister-in-law passed away yesterday, and today is to let her eldest brother go on a blind date, which is really wrong, thinking of this, Jiang Fuling simply walked out of the house and went back to her home alone without saying a word, she didn't want to participate in such an indifferent thing, and felt sorry for her sister-in-law and sorry for her nephew and niece.

"Okay, then hurry up and eat a few bites, freshen up well, don't let people look bored!" The old lady didn't want to say too much, after all, the timing was not right, so she could only be as low-key as possible.

For the time being, these families are all eating in the ancestral house, and they will live separately after Xiuzhen completes the grave for three days, and there will be more people, so as not to make the eldest family cry and cry distressing.

After breakfast, Jiang Fuxin hastily ate a few bites and returned to his own house in the Jiang family's compound, simply washed his face and changed his clothes and went to the peach forest by the river embankment.

Jiang Yan'er slept groggyly, and only woke up at about ten o'clock in the afternoon, and when she washed her face, she saw that the eldest sister had also gotten up, her eyes were red and swollen, and her steps were vain, and her figure was hoarse: "Eldest sister, I didn't see our father!" "Jiang Dudu is thin and small like a stunted growth, but he is full of temperament like a little pepper, and it is a worrying life, although Yan'er is the eldest sister, but some things are still listened to.

"There may be something to go out, I used to be away from home all day and night, either at the wine table or in the kiln, what's wrong?" Jiang Yan'er didn't think it was strange, but was very worried about what her little sister would do if she looked for her mother.
