Chapter II.4
The sun rose high, and the lazy men and women who were idle at home ran to the courtyard of the yarn factory in the east of the village to watch the excitement.
Zhao Shuying has lived for decades, and she never thought that she would have such a day! Li Guangyuan dared to do it with himself! She sat on the ground, howling and crying, and scolded incessantly: "Li Guangyuan is my ancestor!" I've been with me since I was eighteen, my family is so poor that I can't even afford to build a new tile house, my father doesn't want to live or die, if it weren't for the corn field that dragged me, I could follow this bear and donkey! The two old immortal people of the Kai family did not pay a penny for the deduction and search, and in order to blackmail my dowry money, they had to wait for me to be pregnant before they went to my family to propose marriage! I'm really blind to let me be bluffed! Now you dare to do it to me, this is a loss of conscience, I'm sorry for my father! While scolding, he patted his thighs and cried bitterly, regardless of how many people came around.
Li Guangyuan's face was already the color of pig liver, and he was so ashamed that he couldn't find a dog hole to get into. Seeing that there were more and more people around, he couldn't bear it anymore and kicked Zhao Shuying's heart. The latter screamed miserably, and then Li Guangyuan grabbed her hair and dragged her home. Xinfeng was frightened, crying and went up to grab Li Guangyuan's arm and called, "Dad." Daddy, what are you doing! ”
Li Guangyuan has lost his mind, his ears are "buzzing", he can't hear what the people around him are pointing and pointing at, and there is only one thought in his mind: If I don't fan me to death today, I won't be surnamed Li!
Li Guangyuan held her hair in his hand and didn't let go all the way, and Zhao Shuying squeaked in pain. One moment waving his hands to hit him, the next staggering half-crouching. The people in the village gathered around the roadside as if they were watching the Western scenery.
When Han Xiaoxiao rushed back to the village panting with Xiaolu, he saw the crowd scattering in all directions. Qi said: "What day is it?" Third? Why don't you work in the mountains and go to the market? ”
She couldn't care about it either, so she led the path home. On the way, he took his hand and instructed: "After I go back, no matter what my mother says, don't pay attention to her, there is me!" My father... As soon as the words started, he hurriedly changed his words: "Han Daguang is not here, my mother doesn't dare to come up to beckon, so don't worry."
Xiaolu nodded, now there is no other way, since he chooses to believe in Han Xiaoxiao, he can only follow her. After all, it's not safe to go anywhere now.
The more he walked home, the louder the voice in front of him became, as if someone had called the mad dog, "Ahhh Ground shouted.
When she got closer, she found that the sound was coming from her uncle's house on the east side of the road. The big belly and Hu Fat'er on the side of her were looking in through the crack in the door of her uncle's house.
"What are you doing here!" Han Xiaoxiao went up and scolded.
Hu Fat'er looked back and saw that it was Han Xiaoxiao, and sneered: "I don't know yet, Li Guangyuan's family is upside down." It's hiding! After speaking, I found out, why is there a festle next to this dead girl's piece? A few days ago, I heard that Han Daguang kidnapped a male baby, isn't this it? Thinking in his heart, his eyes turned to look up and down the path, and then he "hummed" and scolded: "Girl, solve the sample!"
Han Xiaoxiao slammed a punch on his nose when he heard this, "Niang is a good person!" Hu Fat'er ran home with a howl. The danzi hurriedly waved his hand, "I didn't say anything", and then ran away.
Xiao Lu was stunned when he looked at it on the side, Han Xiaoxiao patted him on the back and said, "Look, they can't beat me, don't worry about it now!"
Hearing this, Xiaolu frowned and shook his head at her, "Ah, ah." "Murder her.
Han Xiaoxiao reacted and said, "Oh, I don't do it often, don't be afraid." Seeing that Xiaolu still didn't know what to say, she shook her head and stuck out her tongue, and then pulled her legs and ran. Xiaolu hurriedly stepped forward to chase her.
Walking into the courtyard, there was no movement at all, Han Xiaoxiao stretched his head and looked into the house. The curtains were drawn with a black rumble, and the quilt seemed to be wrapped in a person.
Han Xiaoxiao called softly: "Mother." I saw the quilt lifted, and his mother stood up and responded: "Eh, Han Xiaoxiaoer? I still know how to go home! ”
Han Xiaoxiao was afraid of scaring the path, so he climbed onto the kang like a monkey and pulled open the dirty curtains to let the sunlight into the house. Her mother was shaken, covered her eyes and said, "What are you doing?" Where are you going these days? When he got used to the sunlight and looked up, he suddenly screamed in fright: "Oops! Ah! Why did he come back again? ”
Han Xiaoxiao laughed and said, "Mother, what are you afraid of?" After speaking, she stared at her mother's eyes for a moment, and her mother looked at Han Xiaoxiao's eyes and beat the drum in her heart, as if she was burned by such a sharp look, hurriedly dodged, and said vaguely: "I, what can I be afraid of." I'm just thinking, why did he come back with him? ”
Han Xiaoxiao looked away and said lightly: "If he goes with me, he will naturally have to go back together." Besides," she lowered her voice and frightened, "My father said, let me keep him well!"
When Li Xiuhua heard this, she was frightened: "Do you see your father?"
"Hmm." Han Xiaoxiao pretended to respond deeply.
Now Li Xiuhua completely went silent. Nervously, he rubbed the corners of the quilt with his hands.
Xiao Lu stood on the edge of the kang for a while, not daring to look up, he had an inexplicable fear of Han Xiaoxiao's mother, I don't know if it was because of her lifeless appearance, or because of the suspicious look when she spoke.
Han Xiaoxiao looked at the two people with different expressions in front of him, thinking that it would be best not to let them come into contact in the future.
She jumped off the kang neatly, and said to Li Xiuhua, who lowered her head and was stunned: "Niang Kai will find the bed and quilt and come out, and I will move to the West House with Xiaolu to sleep."
Li Xiuhua wondered when she heard this, why did she move to that house, wasn't she the most unhappy to live in the Westinghouse in the past? But she thought about it for a while, and secretly thought that her daughter was to watch the boy for Han Daguang. By the way, what did you just say his name? Little road? Secretly glanced at the boy twice, turned his head and pulled out a slightly thicker quilt from the kang box. It stands to reason that the wedding mother's family wants to make two ten-pound new cotton quilts, but Zhao Shuying doesn't want to see herself, she is only willing to make a quilt, and it is not enough to make a quilt. When she first got married, Li Xiuhua wiped her tears for several days. Han Daguangyuan didn't look down on these things, so when he saw her crying and wiping away tears, he only felt unlucky, and he thought she was crooked legs, and he didn't want to go home anymore, so he ran out every now and then.
This quilt has been covered for many years and dried several times, but it has not been dismantled and washed, and the cotton has been rolled out and felted. Han Xiaoxiao was not very satisfied, and felt that this quilt could not line the path, how could the quilt in the hospital be comfortable. said to her mother with disgust: "My mother is idle, so I have been demolished, and I am good to bask in the sun." I'm going to clean up the Westinghouse first. ”
Li Xiuhua thought she had heard it wrong, when did her daughter be so particular? Went to town for a walk and thought you were civilized? What are you doing when you tear down the quilt in a year?
Han Xiaoxiao saw that her mother didn't react, and pouted: "Mother, don't forget, Xiaolu is the person my father ordered, and he will be the pillar of our family in the future!" What's the matter? ”
Li Xiuhua glanced at her fiercely, "Dead girl, don't scare people with your father." Then he glanced quickly down the path. I had no choice but to remove the quilt.
Han Xiaoxiao took Xiaolu's hand and walked into the West House, pressed him on the edge of the kang and sat down, coaxing him to say, "I don't care about anything, I have a good rest here."
She dragged down the rags on the kang, the torn kang sheets, the tattered newspapers pasted on the walls, and the old curtains that had not been washed for several years, and threw them on the ground, and took a broom to sweep the ashes down. The dust in the house was so bad that Han Xiaoxiao was afraid that the path would be broken, so he hurriedly got off the kang and went to the stove to move out the small bench where he was sitting on the fire, and let the small road sit honestly in the courtyard to bask in the sun. Xiaolu wanted to help, but he couldn't intervene, and he didn't know what to do, so he had to sit still obediently.
Han Xiaoxiao finished sweeping the kang, moved all the quilts and curtains of the kang list to the courtyard, and looked inside with the big tank, and sure enough, there was no water. Hurriedly picking up a bucket to fetch water. Xiaolu saw her busy going in and out, knowing that she was all for herself, and she felt hot in her heart, she really didn't lie to herself.
Han Xiaoxiao took four trips of water back and forth, and said that his arm hurt. Xiaolu hurriedly went up and pinched her arm. As soon as Han Xiaoxiao saw Xiaolu smiling at her with her white teeth, she felt that her whole body was comfortable, so she scooped up the kang list and washed it. It's not that she hasn't washed it before, but her mother forced her to work, there is no river in their village, how can she still wash clothes every time she comes back after fetching water? She was impatient and always stepped on her foot.
Thinking of this stubble, Han Xiaoxiao kicked his shoes with great interest, motioned for Xiaolu to take off his shoes as well, and then pulled him into the big iron basin and jumped up happily. Xiao Lu was startled at first, but then he realized that it was funny, so he stepped and jumped happily with her, holding hands.
The "giggles" outside the house alarmed Li Xiuhua, and she raised her eyes to look over and felt that Han Xiaoxiao's smile had deeply stabbed her eyes. I have never laughed like this in my life, beat her for a lifetime, and I haven't had a good day, his father and her mother are very patriarchal, even if she has her brother, she also wants to have a few more boys, but since she gave birth to her, her mother has never been pregnant, her father has relied on her head, so she has never been looked at at home, since she was a child, in addition to laundry and cooking, she also had to go up the mountain to hunt pigweed and pick up dung balls. She was frightened by the snake and broke her leg, went home and cried on the kang for several days, her father and mother didn't even take her to the hospital, and she had to suffer a few times when she lay on the kang, and the family stewed meat during the August Festival, and only gave it to her brother. Later, her father and mother tried their best to marry Zhao Shuying into the family, and she was even more angry every day, until her father and mother died, she thought that her hard days were over, but she followed Han Daguang again. She didn't know what evil she had done in her previous life, and she had to suffer every day in this life to repay her debts.
When her eldest brother came a few days ago, it was Han Daguang who gave her the medicine, she didn't know what it was, but she didn't dare not listen, although Han Daguang beat her, but she pointed at him in this life, so she fed the boy ruthlessly. How dare you think that this small pack of medicine noodles can give him a poisonous mute!
Now looking at Han Xiaoxiao and the boy's lively appearance together, she only feels flustered, hoping that Han Xiaoxiao doesn't know that she did it, and that the boy won't provoke herself. It's best for the three of them to live in peace and quiet, and if they give him a stutter, they can be regarded as having an explanation for Han Daguang.
