Chapter 1 Cutting down trees

“duang…... duang…... duang", early in the morning, Wen Liu was woken up by the sound of chopping wood, still looking sleepy-eyed, I don't understand what is going on, because the rural hometown has not burned firewood for a long time, and natural gas and tap water have been connected to every village as early as 2 years ago.

Following the source of the voice, good guy, I don't know if I don't see it, I was startled when I saw it, his father Wen Jianjun was bending over and wielding a big axe to cut the willow tree behind the house, Wen Liu hurriedly said something to stop, "Dad, what are you doing, this willow tree was planted by me 15 years ago, I don't know how much effort it took me, how much rice and water was wasted in our family, and it was hard to live, and now it has grown so big, why are you cutting it, you are angry with me, can it?" ”

His father was so tired that he was out of breath, so he immediately stopped, sat on the bluestone slab under the willow tree, and sighed long, "......Eh, Liu Liu, it's not that Dad wants to be angry, your mother watched a short video on her mobile phone last night and saw a short video, saying that the willow tree has no children." You said that I cut down this willow tree because you planted it, and if I planted it, I wouldn't have to work hard. The willow tree has no children, so don't you say it, it's all because your father gave you the wrong name, it just so happens that you planted a willow tree, I see, I have to cut it down today, otherwise my grandson doesn't know when he will come to report! ”

Wen Liu was really stunned by his father at this moment, "Dad, can you say that you should not be so superstitious, Willow has no children?" Are you sure it's childless? Also, mom can watch that kind of video, watch it, and have fun, there is no scientific basis at all, how can this be true? You are still fooling, twins still have different fates, how can people's fate be connected with trees? ”

Wen Jianjun was speechless by what his daughter said, and sighed again, "Eh......, it doesn't matter, okay, then you say, you and Xiaowei have been married for 5 years, you will be 30 next year, and you will be an elderly mother in a few years. Also, can you put your temper away, don't run to your mother's house as soon as you quarrel, your mother and I are both half-cut people to the loess, can you let us worry less about snacks and enjoy life quietly? ”

Wen Liu rolled his eyes, "Dad, I'll tell you again, this time it's not a quarrel, it's not a quarrel, it's a forced us to go for a checkup, check it over and over again, the doctor has said it many times, no problem, no problem, and give us some messy home remedies, saying that we must conceive a grandson for her, don't you know that they are patriarchal in that place?" Isn't it like I was forced to go home when I had no choice, besides, I went home or Zhou Wei's idea, it's so unreasonable, we also know that she is in a hurry, and we are also in a hurry, but how can this kind of thing be in a hurry? ”

Speaking of his wonderful mother-in-law Su Min, Wen Liu was really speechless. Wen Liu looked at his father's shiny axe, and had already lit a piece of wax for the willow tree in his heart, and hurriedly took Wen Jianjun's hand and persuaded him, "Dad, so can we put the axe away?" How unlucky it is to use this kind of murder weapon early in the morning, besides, you see that the bark at the foot of this willow tree is about to be cut by you, and you will definitely not survive, right? Early in the morning, it's only May, look at you, sweaty, let's go home for breakfast, for my sake, let go of this willow tree for the time being, okay? ”

Saying that, he hurriedly went to snatch the axe in Wen Jianjun's hand.

Wen Jianjun is a bold person, no matter who he is, as long as he is on the bar, he can be scared, but he is helpless against his daughter. I couldn't help it, I put my hands behind my back and went home first.

Wen Liu looked at his father's slightly rickety back, and the growing gray hair on the back of his head, his eyes were red, and then he looked at the scarred willow tree behind him, his brain was messed up.

In fact, when she came back this time, she didn't tell her dad the truth. Before going home, not only did she stage a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law battle, but even she and Zhou Wei had a big quarrel.

Because she has been married for 5 years, she has never been able to conceive a child, her mother-in-law Su Min has a great opinion on her daughter-in-law from other places, at first Zhou Wei was still on her side, but later Su Min even used the bitter meat trick, pretending to have high blood pressure, pretending to be dizzy, don't ask her why she knows, Zhou Wei went to find medicine and pour water for his mother on the front foot, and his mother threatened her with a divorce on the back foot, she was angry at the time, thinking about exposing his mother on the spot, but Zhou Wei yelled: "She's like this, can you not care, she is still your mother-in-law!" ”

Wen Liu had no choice, just wanted to calm down with each other, so he thought about packing his luggage and going back to his hometown, but his mother immediately said to Zhou Wei: "Look at your daughter-in-law, you just can't say it, say a word to her, and hurry back to her parents' house, don't say anything back and forth for a few days, the fare is more than 1,000 yuan, and you don't care."

Zhou Wei came up angrily and returned to the bedroom for two, "Wen Liu, can you not be so naïve, you are almost 30 years old, can you go home and find your mother passively", Wen Liu was also angry when he heard it, "You just don't believe me?" You just trust your mother, don't you? I just want to go home, let's both calm down", Zhou Wei looked at her serious face, raised eyebrows, red eyes, and pursed lips, and softened his heart: "Okay, you go home and calm down, come back after a while, and I will persuade my mother."

Wen Liu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, let's all calm down." After that, Wen Liu asked the company leaders for a week off, Wen Liu was a trivial role in the company, plus the usual attitude towards the leaders is very good, and the work is also very serious, the leaders immediately approved it. Wen Liu got on the train (hard sleeper) that day, and transferred buses twice at the station before returning to his hometown.

Anyway, when the father and daughter returned home, Wen Liu's mother Liu Sufang had already put breakfast on the table, hot mung bean porridge, hot corn cake, and a plate of fried capers with red dried chili peppers.

Chuanjiang people love to eat spicy, looking at the food in their memory, smelling the familiar fragrance, Wen Liu felt an appetite, completely forgot about the previous troubles, grabbed a corn cake and stuffed it into his mouth, Liu Sufang smiled and said, "Think about it?" It's been a long time since you've eaten it, huh? This time I have enough to eat at home, just this season, the early-maturing corn has just come out, we have a large piece of land in the field, you can do a lot of it, this time you go home and take care of enough, when you go back to Jiangcheng, you will bring some to Xiaowei by the way, he also loves to eat this? ”

Wen Liu frowned and said, "Mom..., why do you always think about him, am I your daughter, or is he your son", Liu Sufang smiled: "You eat all this vinegar?" Aren't you all my children? Mom treats him well, I hope he treats you well......", listening to Liu Sufang's words, Wen Liu looked at his mother's yellowed cheeks and fine lines at the corners of her eyes, and her eyes were red again, she always felt that she couldn't keep up with the speed of aging her parents, and every time she went home, she felt that her parents' hair was whiter and wrinkled.
