[019] Siren is alone and haggard
Hu Xianpo, her life is shrouded in a veil of mystery, which makes people unpredictable and unable to know where to hide, and in the confusing speculation, she passed away suddenly. Her life was filled with loneliness, trouble, and the fear of death. Maybe she didn't die, but deliberately excused herself from the tedious and tiring life of others.
In Zhong Kui's view, Hu Xianpo is like a hermit who has attained enlightenment, her soul leaves her cumbersome body and soars into her own world.
He stood in front of the incense case dedicated to the posthumous photo of Hu Xianpo, respectfully presented a stick of incense, and stared at her kind and indifferent face for a long time. There was a sense of sadness that the rabbit had died and the fox had died, and for a moment, he felt that she was smiling—there seemed to be something hidden between her eyebrows to say to him; Zhong Kui, the old body is gone, and it will be up to you to uphold justice in the future.
A cold crescent moon slowly climbed up the treetops, the grasshoppers in the pumpkin flowers had stopped chirping, and Wu Laohan, who was holding a pu fan to drive away mosquitoes. With a dry smoke, his eyes looked into the deep night, he was thinking about Zhong Kui's question just now, and he didn't know how to explain it clearly.
He is the benefactor of his own family, and he is also a person with the same ability as Hu Xianpo. It can be seen that he is ten times stronger than the few apprentices accepted by Hu Xianpo, if there is any difference between words, it will definitely be harmful to his descendants!
The crescent moon wanders lonely in the empty space without the company of the stars. Around it, in addition to darkness and darkness, occasionally a meteoroid flew by, and that fleeting light did not stay long and blinked.
The crescent moon made Wu Laohan think of his son who was still serving his sentence in prison. The appearance of my son when he was a child is still etched in my mind, from toddler, to babbling, until I picked up a schoolbag sewn from blue floral cloth and jumped and jumped to school. The son gradually grew up under the watchful eyes of the two of them every day, every second, and every hour.
The son is older, and the two of them are old. With my own little family, with a cute little guy. After years of stumbling to enjoy the joy of children and grandchildren around their knees, the old couple should be satisfied, this is the family happiness that people dream of for a lifetime.
But the good times didn't last long, and the daughter-in-law was fierce and always sneered at the old couple. harshness, suspicion and arrogance towards his son, countless times broke out into a big fight. A crumbling marriage is maintained on the bonds of filial piety, morality, and responsibility.
The bitterness in his son's heart, how could Wu Laohan and his wife not know? But they had no other way to solve it than to sigh and sigh. I have to swallow my anger and take care of my grandson while being busy in the fields all day long like a cow. In addition to monitoring the child's father, the daughter-in-law is nagging and making trouble.
Wu Laohan knew that the marriage they had achieved under pressure on his son had hurt him—there was no other way to alleviate his pain than to work hard to make up for the guilt in his heart.
Zhong Kui was very sympathetic to the unhappy marriage of the boat boss, and couldn't help asking: "The two of them can divorce, why do they have to keep struggling?" ”
"Alas! It's all my fault. The daughter-in-law gave him a cousin and a baby kiss who was ordered since he was a child. At that time, he had good grades in his studies and was admitted to high school, but his family really couldn't come up with money to support his tuition fees for three years of high school, or his daughter-in-law's family pooled money to pay for the tuition and miscellaneous fees. We can't forget our roots! promised his daughter-in-law's family, saying that when he graduated from high school, the two of them would get married. As a result-" When Wu Laohan said this, his eyes were red and old tears rippled.
"Does your daughter-in-law study?"
"She dropped out of school before graduating from primary school, and her parents were not happy to let her study more, so they poured all their energy into the boys at home."
How can a promising young man with a different cognitive outlook have a common language for a woman who is uneducated and shallow? Is this fate? Zhong Kui asked himself and continued to ask: "Then, when did the conflict between the two of them begin?" ”
Wu Laohan has deep old eyes, staring at the darkness in the distance-stirring his nose, telling the story of what happened between his son and daughter-in-law-
The Wu family holds a happy event, and the neighbors love to help. It is said that they were married to each other, and the women chatted about this great marriage while eating candy.
The only son of the Wu family, the boat boss, who was like a wooden man, let the jokes of those pilgrims frolic, but he didn't feel a trace of joy. On the night of the wedding, he deliberately got drunk and slept until daylight.
The new daughter-in-law wondered all night that her new husband, cousin, was indifferent to herself as if he were a wooden man, could there be something wrong with him?
The mother-in-law is the aunt of the new daughter-in-law, and if she has any grievances, she naturally wants to find this aunt.
On the second night, the old mother personally waited at the door, and asked her son and daughter-in-law to spend candles in the cave. Otherwise, she will die for her son.
The filial son had to reluctantly embarrass her, who he didn't like, and became a de facto husband and wife. At that time, the two of them had not yet received a marriage certificate because the man was not yet of marriage age.
The new daughter-in-law's home is stronger than the man's in all conditions. The dowry was more generous than that of any daughter-in-law in the village, and soon after, he used his private money to renovate the family's house and build small green tiles.
The son felt that farming in the field all day was never a solution, and he had to think of other ways to make money to supplement the family. Once upon a time, he liked to be alone, go to the river with a fishing rod, squat for most of the day, think quietly, and enjoy the tranquil tranquility.
But in this way, the new daughter-in-law suspected that he was deliberately avoiding herself. repeatedly complained in front of his aunt and mother-in-law, adding fuel and vinegar to his complaints.
The mother had no choice but to beg her son not to do this. Be kind to your daughter-in-law, don't let her go back to her parents' house to make trouble, that will not benefit anyone.
The son felt that his mother was not easy, so he agreed to her and did not go fishing in the river. But I thought of a way to make money, and that was to buy a boat to ferry. Because he felt that it was far away from the east, south, west, north, and far away, and that the only thing he lacked was a boat, which could bring the two sides of the river closer, and could reach a mutual buying and selling relationship. Moreover, on the other side of the river, there is Huanggang Town more than ten miles away. As long as there are boats ferrying back and forth, there is no worry about no people coming by boat.
At first, the old couple of the Wu family felt that their son's idea was immature and too naïve. However, the son's stubbornness and stubbornness eventually made them compromise and raise money to buy a ship.
The new daughter-in-law also went to her parents' house to borrow money, and finally bought a boat as she wished. At the beginning of the ferry career, it will inevitably cause a lot of criticism and white eyes, as well as ridicule, ridicule, etc.! But he bravely survived.
With the livelihood of ferrying, the family no longer has to worry about expenses, but it leads to other drawbacks. The new daughter-in-law suspects her husband of hiding private money-
Because she suspected that her husband was hiding money in the latrine, and her son was in the latrine, and before he came out, the new daughter-in-law went in and squatted in front of her son to pee in the pit - a pair of eyes turned bonelessly, staring at all the corners of the latrine.
It's not that the son can't tolerate her suspicions, but he can't tolerate her shamelessness. Although the two are husband and wife, it's one thing in the room, it's another thing outside, he disgusted her in the toilet in broad daylight, in front of him, without any scruples, pulling down her pants and peeing-
