Chapter 009: Back to My Mother's Home 3
The second aunt's face was blue and white for a while, and she wanted to pull Chunzhi's hair and scold.
The other relatives saw that the situation was not right, and hurriedly dragged the second aunt into the kitchen, and the matter was over.
And when such an incident happened, other relatives who wanted to find trouble quickly shut up.
After a while, the women cooked in the kitchen, and everyone gathered together to eat happily. From the beginning to the end, they were polite to Chunzhi and Chai Dong.
However, the second aunt is obviously still choked. As soon as the meal was finished, she put down her chopsticks with a snap: "I remember, my grandson's diapers haven't been confiscated yet!" I'll go back first! ”
wiped his mouth and led his grandson away.
If she really wants to be embarrassed, she should leave before dinner. Now that she has eaten and drunk enough, she is embarrassed to look so arrogant!
Haruka chuckled and helped her mother clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and she took the initiative to say goodbye to her father.
Gu Dahu straightened his face early, and stiffly nodded in agreement. Zhu quietly beckoned to Chunzhi.
Chunzhi walked over, and she dragged Chunzhi into the house.
Then, Haruka noticed that a heavy bag had been stuffed into her hand.
"Girl, now that things have come to this point, we can only grit our teeth and admit this family business. But if you don't say it, your father and I both know that you must be wronged in your heart, and you don't know how much hardship you will have to endure in the future. We spent almost the five taels of silver for Xiao Wu, and now there are only two hundred dollars left, you can take them all! ”
It turns out that the bag is full of money? There are still two hundred, no wonder they are so heavy!
Haruka was taken aback, and she quickly stuffed the bag back. "Mother, I don't want it. Xiao Wu's illness is just right, you have to buy her some good things to replenish her body. There are other younger brothers and sisters, they are still young, you have to take care of them, you must not let them starve like Xiao Wu! ”
"We still have that money at home." Zhu raced the money into her hands again.
Chunzhi was about to push back again, and he didn't want Zhu to sink his face. "How dare you give me the money back?"
Chunzhi was stunned for a moment, and really didn't dare to move.
Zhu Shicai sighed again. "Chunzhi, my mother knows that you don't want this money for the good of the family, but you are a girl's family, and you are married to your mother-in-law's family and have no support, and your father and I are not at ease, but now there is such a thing...... If I don't give you some money to keep for self-defense, your father and I can't rest assured. Besides, this money was originally exchanged for your whole life, and we used almost all the five taels of silver, so there were only two hundred dollars left, and to be honest, we couldn't even take this money. But you also know the situation at home, and now you can take it out, so you can take it all! If something really happens to the Chai family, you can have more ways if you have money in hand. ”
When Haruka heard this, her nose couldn't help but sour.
"Mother......
"Alright, take it!" Zhu Shi clenched her hands and told her to put away the money bag, "You can find a place to hide these two hundred yuan by yourself, don't let your son-in-law and your mother-in-law know." It's your private money, you know? ”
"yes, I know." Harueda nodded hurriedly.
Zhu touched her face again, wiped the corners of her eyes again, and then turned away. "It's not too early, let's go! If you get home later, it will be midnight. ”
Although the mother turned her back, looking at her slightly trembling shoulders, Chunzhi's heart was sour again.
But the mother deliberately didn't let herself see her cry, because she didn't want to make herself sad. Chunzhi could only pretend not to see anything, and quietly wiped a little wet stain from the corner of his eye, hid the money bag in his arms, and took a deep breath and went out.
Chai Dong outside was already waiting in the yard with a donkey.
Chunlei, Chunzhi's younger brother, brought over the basket she had brought again, and the basket contained a few sticks and cakes. It was already the best thing their family could come up with. This is for them to feed their hunger on the road.
Chunzhi sat on the back of the donkey, carried the basket, and Chai Dong drove the donkey out.
Gu Dahu stood motionless, and Chunzhi's mother, Zhu, took her younger siblings out of the house and walked towards the entrance of the village.
Originally, so many relatives came to the house just now, and the cats scattered in all directions. Now that Haruka and the others were going back, the cats gathered from all directions. Just as when they entered the village just now, they followed them in groups. It's just that so many cats seemed to know that they were leaving, and they didn't bark again all the way, but followed them silently.
Chai Dong found this, and his brows couldn't help frowning again.
It was on the dirt road that sent them to the entrance of the village that Chunzhi Niang and the others stopped.
"Mother, go back!" Harukeda turned around and waved at them.
Zhu's eyes were red again. "Be careful on the road, eat some bread when you're hungry, don't rush to the road!" She babbled on and on.
Haruka just nodded.
She also instructed Chunlei: "In the future, you will be the biggest in the family, you have to take good care of your younger brothers and sisters, and help your father and mother work, do you know?" ”
"Sister, don't worry, if you're not at home, I'll definitely take good care of my parents. But you have to be good when you get there, if anyone dares to bully you, you must come back and tell us, you can't bear it yourself, you know? Chunlei calmly opened his delicate face and waved his fist a few times in a feigned force.
He said this not so much to Chunzhi, but to Chai Dong, who was so thin that it seemed that a gust of wind could blow him down.
Although the mouth of eating people is soft, Chunlei ate Chai Dong's scallion pancakes, and his attitude towards this brother-in-law is slightly better. But a few bites of scallion pancakes could not offset the hatred in his heart for Chai Dong's family for deceiving their family. Therefore, taking advantage of the last time, he still couldn't help but demonstrate against Chai Dong.
It's a pity that Chai Dong just stood there motionless as if he hadn't heard his words.
When Chunlei found out, a trace of frustration appeared on his face.
Seeing this, Chunzhi sighed quietly and nodded to Chai Dong. "Let's go!"
Chai Dong immediately nodded and hurriedly drove the donkey away.
The two men drove the donkey for more than a mile, and slowly out of the range of the village, and Chunzhi jumped off the donkey's back. "Sit down!"
Chai Dong was not polite to her, and sat on it himself. Haruka grabbed the reins and suddenly said to him, "Thank you." ”
Chai Dong raised his eyebrows. "What did you say?"
"Thank you for giving your scallion pancakes to my brother and sister." Haruka whispered, "You still gave me a little face in my house." My dad and mother can finally rest assured that the store is safe. ”
"It's also for my own face." Chai Dong said lightly, "They don't like me, I know." But I don't want them to come to me to find trouble, so I can only stabilize them first. A few scallion pancakes, in exchange for a while of cleanliness, are worth it. ”
The corners of Haruzhi's mouth twitched.
Why is this kid so disagreeable to her? Obviously, he can say good things in front of her father today.
However, it's also a shame that he didn't talk nonsense at her mother's house today. Otherwise, with his usual disgusting attitude towards her, her younger brother Chunlei will see it and definitely fight with him!
Since he knew that he disliked himself, Harukie kept his mouth shut and simply stopped talking to him, so as not to bring shame on himself.
The two of them walked up for a while, and then they heard another cat meow.
Haruka subconsciously stopped and looked back, and saw a big cat with black and white flowers coming out of the forest on the side of the road. It was followed by several small milk cats, all of which were about the size of the little third son.
Walking up to Haruka, they craned their necks and meowed at her, their little expressions looking so pitiful and cute.
"Erhua, the eldest son, the second boy, the fourth child and the fifth child, why did you still come along?" Looking at these cats, Harukeda's heart softened again. She hurriedly bent down to pick up the big cat.
The other kittens also jumped on top of her, meowing incessantly.
"You're going back with me, too?" As if he understood the cats' words, Chunzhi frowned, a little excited, and a little hesitant.
"You'd better not." Chai Dong's cool voice came from behind him, and Su Ran hurriedly turned around.
"My mother doesn't like cats." I only heard him say in a low voice, "I used to be weak, and she didn't know where to get a home remedy, saying that eating cat meat could cure me, so she caught a lot of cats for me to stew and drink." In those years, the cats in the village were almost caught by her. Once when she was catching a wild cat, the wild cat scratched her paw fiercely, scratching a long hole in her arm, and the wound took half a month to heal. Since then, she has beaten cats when she sees them, and none of the cats in the village are afraid to come near her. ”
So that's it! Chunzhi finally understood why the third son was scared like that when he saw the Wang family for the first time. She finally understood why there were almost no cats in the village over there, and the feeling was that there was a cat killer there!
However, when she heard that Wang's hand had been scratched by a cat, she couldn't help but gloat in her heart - she deserved it! The cat is such a soft little animal, every time she sees love, it is too late, but the Wang family was able to ruthlessly catch so many kills and kill the stew soup to drink, just because she listened to the home remedies to treat her son's illness!
Although her love for her son is understandable, those cats are also innocent!
However, knowing this past from Chai Dong's mouth, she was even more hesitant. She touched Erhua's head. "You heard, it's really not suitable for you to go over there, so you can stay here for a few days. I'll promise to get things done over there as soon as possible, and I'll pick you up when the time comes, huh? ”
I don't know if it was Chai Dong's delusion or what, he found that he actually saw the loss in the cat's eyes! The eyes that were so bright just now suddenly became discouraged, and even the furry head drooped. Then, it actually turned its head, wagged its tail and went into the woods again!
However, before turning its head, it seemed to glare at itself?
