Chapter 126 or I will continue to pretend to be asleep
If Li Xin can still feel a trace of warmth in his previous life, it is when he holds hot tea in his hand, when tears run down his cheeks.
Parents are patriarchal like their own grandmothers, and their mothers are extremely humble all their lives, except for obeying their father's orders, that is, they feel that their mother-in-law is doing supreme things.
Once the mother gritted her teeth and said to Li Xin that if her grandmother could die early, she would turn over, and she could also take care of her daughter-in-law, when her mother said that, she grinned a row of yellow teeth, which made Li Xin have a shadow for a long time, the shadow of marriage and the shadow of her future mother-in-law.
Everything in the family, including the behavior of the family, is dedicated to the younger brother being able to live a life like a dog, and the younger brother only needs to be responsible for eating, drinking, and passing on the lineage.
The mother gave birth to a daughter because of her first child, and she was tortured and cold-eyed by her grandmother, and she felt a little sorry for herself in her heart, so she poured her anger on Li Xin's body.
Li Xin is an out-and-out angry bag in that family, but fortunately, the first child of the rural household registration is a daughter, and she can make persistent efforts to have children.
Naturally, their parents will never give up this opportunity, Li Xin is not yet a year old, they go to the ground day and night to sow seeds, and the next year the mother lives up to expectations and holds a belly, but because it is too dense, the child is not saved at the age of three months.
This blow did not bother the parents, who sometimes came back from their lunch break and studied various tactics for the birth of a son in their room.
Some people say that drinking alkaline water is easy to give birth to sons.
Some people say that the temple of Guanyin in the East Village is very similar.
Some people say that women are more likely to have sons than men.
Grandma would tell her parents about home remedies, but she was just on the side to guide them.
In the words of my grandmother, there is nothing more face-saving in the countryside than giving birth to a son, just take the farmer in the village as an example, and gave birth to two daughters.
What if the family has a big business in the village, it's not a change of way to recruit a son-in-law to block Youyou's mouth.
Fortunately, with their unremitting efforts, the younger brother finally arrived as scheduled.
Since the birth of his younger brother, the family has instantly had a life goal, and they have intensified their efforts to ask Li Xin to earn gold and silver.
But as the old saying goes, there will always be a day when the mountain is empty, the younger brother has long formed a habit if he doesn't learn and is lazy, and his family is spoiled, Li Xin is afraid that his younger brother will go down the road he shouldn't go because of his ferocity in the future.
Li Xin once tried to let his younger brother, who had dropped out of school and was idle at home, learn a trade, and his grandmother threw a broom on Li Xin's right shoulder, and the broom hit Li Xin's shoulder hard.
My grandmother immediately jumped over and said viciously: "There are three people in our family who can't afford to support your brother alone?" Why is your heart so bad, you always encourage your brother to go out in the wind and sun, are you such a sister? ”
Li Xin was young and vigorous at that time, and returned to his grandmother: You are so indulgent to your younger brother is actually no different from killing your younger brother.
The grandmother took off her stinky cloth shoes on the spot and hit Li Xin with her head and face, and her mouth did not rest for a moment: "I asked you to go south to do work like the daughter of the family next door, you see which one of them came back without wearing gold and silver, and bought a house for his younger brother in the city, what can you do?" ”
"I don't know what to do for my brother except for eating and drinking, you say that people are not looking for a good job when they go south, I don't know what good jobs are not good to work for, I only know that the work you do does not earn money, and the work that earns money is a good job."
"If you want me to say, if you really have your brother in your heart and have this family, you will dismiss the job in the hospital, I will go to someone's house to ask for a favor, and you will follow them south next year to earn a lot of money, so that your brother can also buy a house in the city, maybe he can marry a girl in the city."
"You also know that it is difficult to find a satisfactory girl's family without a building in the city now, and you also know that it is not possible to get married without hundreds of thousands of yuan now."
"Your parents work in the factory, even if they are frugal, there are few people, your mother is willing to go south to earn money, but she is that age, she is old and decrepit, she can't do that if she has that heart, your brother's happiness in his life is not to count on you."
When my grandmother said this, she also kindly took Li Xin's hand and said: "You are the only relative of your brother who has the potential to make a lot of money, you must give your brother a full count, isn't that the woman's family like that, what is there to be ashamed of, your brother will be grateful to you as a sister in the future." ”
At that time, Li Xin withdrew his hand and looked at his younger brother and said, "As a man, shouldn't his own future be fought for by himself?" How did it get to grandma's mouth, so that we all worked together to spoil him. ”
Grandma immediately gave Li Xin a slap, and one ear of Li Xin buzzed for several days: "I'm not dead yet, you dare to have your own careful thoughts, if I die, you don't know how to abuse your brother." ”
"If the girls in the family don't want to be the boys in the family, then why do we raise girls? It's really unlucky. The grandmother left in a huff.
Li Xin was slapped by his grandmother, and the whole person was still crooked to the side, and his younger brother looked at Li Xin condescendingly and said in disgust: "I know all day long that I will do this and that, learn this and that, you work hard to earn money and get it back, don't always have so many bad thoughts and panic." ”
Li Xin stretched out his hand to cover half of the face he had slapped his grandmother and said: "Grandma, Mom and Dad have a day when they are old, and there is a day when they can't do anything, you need to support yourself as soon as possible, otherwise you will suffer in the future." ”
The younger brother listened to Li Xin's words, and stepped on the back of Li Xin's other hand supported on the ground with his foot and said, "Don't you still have you when they die?" Could it be that you are also dead? Grandma said, either you can sell it for a good price enough for me to squander, or you will stay at home for the rest of your life to earn money for me. ”
"You said that you have such a face, what do people look at in a white coat, it's better to follow them south to make money, tsk, you don't know your classmates in elementary school, that one named Li Lanmei is really hooking." The younger brother said with his eyes closed.
Li Xin pulled his hand back from his brother's feet, and returned to his room without squeaking, and when he passed by the seedling field at the entrance of the village after work the next day, he heard a strange sound inside, and Li Xin wanted to avoid it in a hurry.
This is a place where some inconvenient men and women secretly meet, even if it is icy and snowy, it is very popular with couples because of the dense reeds and the seedling field next to it.
When Li Xingang wanted to leave, he heard a somewhat familiar voice, so he walked over lightly: "Lan Mei used to see that the clothes you were wearing were either full of patches or leftovers from your eldest brother and second brother, and they looked ugly. ”
Lan Mei let out a long sigh of encouragement and scolded angrily: "You just pay fifty yuan, it's almost an hour, the old lady is really at a loss." ”
"Can that master be compared with those old, weak, sick and disabled, or will you find a way to let my stinky stone go south with you to make money?"
"Then I'll figure it out." Lan Mei's words became intermittent due to the constant rapid breathing.
After listening to the conversation between her younger brother and her elementary school classmates, Li Xin felt a chill in her back, and she was cautious during that time.
If you don't eat or drink anything at home, you sleep on the small folding bed in the hospital when you are not on duty, and you are afraid that if you are not careful, you will never recover.
This nerve was not let go until Lan Mei left, and later Li Xin also figured out how those who claimed to be glamorous could let more people know her unbearable side.
Later, after Lan Mei left silently, the younger brother chewed through the blood of the gums and said, "Didn't you say that you should bring your own broom star?" Why did he leave without saying a word. ”
Of course, this matter died down because my younger brother went to the hospital to hang salt water because of some inflammation, and hung it for more than half a month, and my grandmother encouraged my younger brother to find a serious girl if he wanted to put out the fire, don't look for a non-trivial one.
Li Xin thought about it and hugged the food box and cried, she really didn't know that such a thing could happen to Fang Rong and Shopkeeper Zhu, she really didn't want to lure the wolf into the room.
Fang Rong opened his eyes and saw Li Xin, who was leaning on the edge of the bed with his back but sitting on the ground, his shoulders trembled, and he seemed to be crying very sadly.
He was still angry about the afternoon's events, if this girl hadn't gone to Zhu's shopkeeper to talk nonsense, he would have suffered this shame and humiliation?
In the afternoon, Fang Rong really needed to take a break because of too much internal force consumption, or he would have wanted to settle accounts with this girl in the afternoon.
But looking at her sobbing in the dim light, Fang Rong was a little upset, where was he still thinking about settling accounts, did the rapid spinning in his mind offend her? What went wrong?
How can you comfort yourself? Fang Rong was a little confused, after all, it was the first time to coax a girl, and he didn't know where to start.
Why don't you continue to pretend to be asleep, wait until she has cried enough, and then wake up leisurely? Pretend you don't know anything? But every cry of Li Xin was like a needle, piercing Fang Rong's heart fiercely.
