In Jiang Mi's memory, his grandfather liked to help others the most in the village, and he was a well-known good man in the village.
She didn't know that a few days ago, in order to build a house for her second uncle Jiang Yuanliang and marry a daughter-in-law, her good grandmother forced Li Lamei to take 200 yuan out.
The family's money is in the hands of Jiang Mi's father Jiang Yuanming, and Li Lamei only took out the twenty yuan she earned by embroidery, but it made her mother-in-law furious.
Under the high-pressure control of the mother-in-law, the good-tempered father-in-law and the strong brother-in-law and sister-in-law only watch the jokes of the eldest daughter-in-law's family, even if Li Lamei is sick and can't get up, they don't see that the mother-in-law's family will reach out to help.
Li Lamei now only hopes that her two brothers can remember her sick sister after planting wheat at home, and they can come to help.
Jiang Mi doesn't know now that her mother has just had a conflict with her grandmother, and her grandmother is using the autumn harvest to force her mother to take out the family funds so that she can marry her second uncle.
The wheelbarrow is not strenuous to push on the downhill road as long as the balance is well controlled. It's a pity that Jiang Mi is only a twelve-year-old girl who has not yet begun to develop at this time, with short legs and short arms, and it is difficult to grasp the car on both sides, let alone exert herself.
Fortunately, there was also a wide tie braided hemp rope tied between the two handlebars, which was carried around the two thin little shoulders, which could borrow some strength.
Along the way, staggering, stumbling, stumbling.
Jiang Mi finally pushed the car to the stone bridge in the east of the village, and heard a woman in her forties sitting in the shade under the big willow tree at the entrance of the village screaming: "Look, look, isn't that the second girl of Jiang Lao's family?" Why did you start pushing the trolley at such a point? ”
"Tsk, this little girl is only ten years old, right? Poor insight, look at that little face of the mud road, just cried, right? A lady rubbing the buds of rice grains in the flutter looked up at Jiang Mi, her thin lips were slugging, and there was no sympathy in her triangular eyes except for contempt, ridicule, and schadenfreude.
"Her grandmother is really ruthless, she just saw that Jiang Lao and everyone were sick and kneeling and working, and she didn't help......"
"You know what? Li Lamei is also a picker, the brother-in-law married his daughter-in-law and had no money to build a house, her mother-in-law borrowed money from her, and she only gave two yuan! Two dollars can marry a fart daughter-in-law! ”
"Huh?! Only give two dollars? Boss Jiang is a big worker, he pays more than 20 yuan a month, and it is really unreasonable to give two yuan! Don't blame her in-laws for seeing her jokes......"
"Isn't that right...... Li Lamei can be regarded as an old sin this time......"
"Hahaha...... This is not the time for a big collective, if you don't work, you still have food to eat, you have money to spend, and you can't pretend to be sick and lazy at every turn......"
Jiang Mi endured the pain in her legs, and while laboriously turning the cart west along the edge of the corn pile spread out on the side of the road, she listened to the discussions of the seven aunts and eight aunts in her memory.
These old ladies have obviously finished harvesting corn at home, planted wheat, took advantage of the cold, peeled corn and gossiped, and watched other people's jokes by the way.
Pushing the cart with difficulty from the sound of chattering and giggling, Jiang Mi only felt chills all over his body.
This is the simple and honest father and old folks in her memory, her aunts and aunts?
Her father's salary of more than 20 yuan a month made her sick mother the target of envy!
Jiang Mi was disappointed and angry.
