Chapter 13 She wants to be the support of her younger brothers and be a good sister to Xiaoshan and Xiaojin!
Regardless of everyone's shock, Zhou Lanxiang stared at Wang Xu's eyes and continued: "After my aunt said that the old Wang family is not worthy, what is the matter with my miscarriage, others don't know about it, don't you know?" ”
Seeing Wang Xu's face change in an instant, Zhou Lanxiang sneered in her heart, and deliberately paused for a moment, so that everyone in the room could see Wang Xu's weakness clearly before continuing.
"A few months before I got pregnant with my first child, you took me to the commune health center to see me, and the doctor said that I was so hungry that I couldn't conceive at all, and I couldn't sit still even if I was pregnant with a child! Everyone knows this.
Then the child really fell off! Why did I starve my child? It's not like you've taken all the food to the house! My aunt said that if you don't feel sorry for your daughter-in-law, you don't even feel sorry for your grandson, the child is starved to death! ”
The account must be settled little by little, first take off the mask of hypocrisy that the old couple of the Wang family desperately maintained, and then expose their lack of morality step by step!
And she doesn't have the opportunity or ability to confront her parents now, even if she says it, Zhang Guirong and Zhou Baotian can also mess around and suppress the matter, so Zhou Lanxiang didn't plan to tell Wang Manchu about cheating on her marriage and Wang Xu's fake her miscarriage today.
"It's not that I'm not careless about the second child, it's because I'm tired! Wang Manchu and I got up hungry next to each other, and secretly beat adobe in Nandagou in the dark, wanting to build our own house. Why do we have to steal adobe? Because my father and mother wouldn't let us move out. The family was given a broken warehouse and didn't let us build our own house, where can we find such parents? If you don't let us go out and start the house, you just want me to serve you every day. ”
"I won't say anything about serving the elderly, even let me wash the pants of Wufulai's menstrual holiday! I was not allowed to boil hot water with firewood, I got up early in the winter and went to work at night, washing clothes for her in the middle of the night, and when I touched the cold sailor, I was numb from the cold, and I used a stove hook to burn my hands after saving my clothes for a few days without washing them. ”
Zhou Lanxiang stretched out her hand to show everyone, and the burn on it that had already flowed pus was particularly dazzling.
Wang Wufu's face was flushed, and he still stalked his neck and forced words: "I, I didn't mean to!" Who made you so lazy! Wash a few clothes! You, why are you so hypocritical! ”
Zhou Lanxiang smiled and didn't answer her words, and then said: "My aunt said, she is my mother's family, but not my own mother, she couldn't manage it when she was looking for her mother-in-law's family, and now she can't manage it, but I didn't have a grain of rice at home, the man went to the room to sleep on the hot kang and ate hot rice, and threw me in a broken house to starve and freeze, she couldn't give meat to such a person to eat, I didn't eat her, I threw it to feed the dog!" ”
"Mother, that's what my aunt said, do you have anything else to say about me eating meat?"
Wang Xu couldn't say a word, Zhang Guirong looked at Ma Yinghua sitting on the edge of the kang and didn't dare to hit Zhou Lanxiang, but he felt that he was very reasonable: "Filial piety to the old man is right!" Your aunt is nosy! How can she be so capable of still being dead, and the man is dead, and the son is dead......"
Zhou Lanxiang and Xiaoshan frowned together and interrupted her: "Mother! "Is this something that she, a sister, can say?!
Zhang Guirong pouted and didn't say anything, she was also afraid that if this word reached the ears of her eldest sister in the future, her eldest sister would be angry and tear her mouth apart!
Inside and outside the house, the lively people have been buzzing and talking about it into a pot of porridge!
Lao Wang's family is a well-known good family in ten miles and eight towns, but I didn't expect to be so my daughter-in-law! This is really knowing people and faces, but not knowing their hearts!
Ma Yinghua also frowned, she thought at first that Zhou Lanxiang had stolen the meat of her mother-in-law's family to make such a big fuss, after all, the daughter-in-law of the king jar also made such a fuss a few days ago.
I didn't expect it to be like this in the end! It's just that she has been working as a woman for so many years, and she has seen a lot of messy and messy things, and she has never seen such a hard work for her daughter-in-law! I've never seen my mother-in-law help my mother-in-law bully her daughter!
Of course, Zhou Lanxiang can endure it for so many years, it is really stupid and virtuous.
But fortunately, it's not stupid and thorough, and it's a good idea in my heart. Today's play is something that others can't understand, but she understands it now.
Today, the sister and brother fooled her, just to use her as a gunman.
The younger brother hurriedly found her, and the elder sister peeled the skin for her in-laws' family with reason! didn't cry or make trouble, one by one, she said it clearly, and asked her neighbor, who was close to her, to bring witnesses to talk to her man!
She has seen a lot of men like Wang Manchu, and her daughter-in-law has not said anything after being foolish and filial for so many years, she must feel that it is natural to give her father and mother, and her daughter-in-law should suffer any grievances. Whether it's starving to death your own child or starving your daughter-in-law, it's not anything wrong, and there's nothing you can't say when others ask.
This little daughter-in-law is really a thoughtful child, so she took advantage of her mother-in-law's defenselessness to take out the man's words, and there are so many witnesses, and the mother-in-law has no way to deny it.
Ma Yinghua was calculated once, and he was not uncomfortable at all, but very happy. If only all the women in the brigade could have such brains!
I've seen a lot of people who only know how to cry and mess around, and suddenly there is a person who doesn't cry or make trouble and knows how to seek justice for herself, of course she has to help.
Ma Yinghua saw that Zhou Lanxiang had finished speaking, her mother-in-law and mother-in-law were blocked by her and couldn't say a word, and gave this little daughter-in-law a thumbs up in her heart, this is really the most worry-free and relieving adjustment she has done after working for so many years!
Ma Yinghua asked Wang Xu and Zhang Guirong solemnly: "What else do you have to say about Zhou Lanxiang's eating meat?" ”
What can they say? Although she complained about Zhou Lanxiang in her heart, no one could say those words, Zhang Guirong was afraid of her eldest sister and Ma Yinghua, Wang Xu's pulled Wang Wufu, who was still unconvinced, and endured it first, and then let Man Hoard clean up this unconscious daughter-in-law when everyone left!
She has been a mother-in-law for so many years, but it has never been difficult for her daughter-in-law, and she is really dissatisfied with the beating and scolding, so that her son will come forward.
They had nothing to say, Ma Yinghua began a routine sermon on equality between men and women, not persecution of women, and women should be self-reliant, after saying that, Wang Xu thought she was finally leaving, but she didn't expect her to turn around and ask Zhou Lanxiang: "Zhou Lanxiang, today's incident is that you have been wronged, what else do you want?" ”
Zhou Lanxiang leaned weakly on the roll of cover that Xiaoshan had rolled up for her, although she was tortured, she still had a gentle and soft smile on her face, there was no bitterness and hatred, and there was no trace of resentment and meanness.
Many aunts and aunts who watched her grow up suddenly remembered the little Lanxiang before they got married. That's the best-looking girl in the whole tunzi, the whole brigade, and the whole commune, with a very good personality, she smiles when she sees everyone, and her hands are skillful, and she doesn't praise her for the clothes and shoes she makes!
Cooking is more delicious, obviously the same thing, and the meals that have been rectified in her hands are always better than others.
Such a good girl, I don't know when she got married, she doesn't like to laugh or talk anymore, and she is getting thinner and thinner, and she is no longer fresh and tender before marriage. Obviously, both of them are diligent people who get up early and are greedy and hardworking, but they wear patches and patches, and everyone almost forgets how good-looking and painful she used to be.
But today's smile, everyone seems to see the shadow of the little girl again, and the aunts and aunts are sighing and angry, look at the old Wang family, what kind of disaster has been made of a good girl who is white and tender!
Aunt Pole, who is soft-hearted and has a good relationship with Zhou Lanxiang, has red circles in her eyes.
Zhou Lanxiang didn't say politely to Ma Yinghua after laughing: "Sister Ma, you have also watched what life our family is doing, I have a miscarriage now, and I don't even have a grain at home, can you please discuss with my mother-in-law how much food I have." I can't settle the old man's previous accounts, and I don't expect to be able to give me some eggs, so I can eat some millet porridge this month so that I can sit in the small confinement and give some more at home, and I will make up for the old Wang family to inherit the lineage. ”
If you want to calculate the previous account, Ma Yinghua can't help her calculate it back, so put it down for the time being, let's get some benefits for yourself first!
Everyone thought that Zhou Lanxiang had to take advantage of the fact that the cadres of the brigade were also here, and they had to go back to ask for the previous food and money, but they didn't expect that she only had such a small request, so they all nodded secretly, she is really a sensible and filial daughter-in-law!
But Wang Wufu doesn't think so! She was almost mad: "You still want to drink millet porridge?" Drink the northwest wind and go! Half a bag of millet in my house! A basket of eggs! Leave you hungry to death! Feed the dog and don't give it to you! ”
Wang Wufu was very relieved after speaking, didn't you say just now that you would feed meat to dogs? Now we also take our things to feed the dogs and don't give them to you!
Zhou Lanxiang lowered her head and hid the smile on the corner of her mouth.
Her sister-in-law was so arrogant and domineering in her mother's family, and later relied on a lot of dowry and a younger brother who worked as an officer in the commune to marry a family with a very good family, but she was still as unreasonable and lazy as she was at home, and she was sent back by her in-laws after three years of marriage, and the man said that he would not have anything to do with her.
Later, Wang Dajiang said all the good things, came to the door and begged again and again, and gave people I don't know how many benefits, and they let her go back for the sake of the child.
Since then, Wang Wufu's good days have come to an end, and she has to be beaten every three or five days, she is not angry, her in-laws take advantage of it, and no matter how many brothers she has, she can't support her. After more than ten years, people are like old women, and when the policy is good, the man runs transportation and earns money, and the first thing is to divorce her.
Ma Yinghua is going to sigh for Wang Wufu, such a stupid girl, won't she wait to be bullied by her in-laws when she gets married in the future? But don't marry into this brigade, or she will be in trouble to death!
Wang Xu grabbed his proud daughter and smiled at Ma Yinghua: "Lan Xiang doesn't say that we also have to get food, hoarding that foolish goods, always saying that the family has enough food to eat, we really didn't expect their little couple to live such a life, or my father and I starved to death and couldn't let the child suffer......"
While talking, he began to wipe his tears again, and the onlookers didn't speak, who did he lie about? How much food is distributed by the production team in a year, it is all on the surface, and you will receive so much if you give it? You don't feel sorry for eating?
However, Zhang Guirong believed her words, and immediately went to comfort Wang Xu, as if she was sorry for others, and said a few words and started to scold Zhou Lanxiang.
Zhou Lanxiang hurriedly spoke: "Sister Ma, I can't get off the kang either, see if I can trouble you and help me weigh the food back." ”
At first glance, Wang Xu's just didn't plan to give it, this is perfunctory Ma Yinghua. When everyone leaves, whether to give or not, how much to give, it's not up to her to decide.
Ma Yinghua felt that this little daughter-in-law had woken up, she could make her the main food, but she had to take the initiative to ask for help. She doesn't ask for help, she is a brigade cadre
There's no reason to run to someone's warehouse and say that the grain is going, isn't it?
Ma Yinghua is enthusiastic about women's work, and he does not shirk, and immediately calls Xiaoshan: "Little boy, go and find Wang Dajiang back, let's go to the room to discuss the matter of food." ”
Weighing such a big thing as food has to be counted by the man's return. And we have to educate this father-in-law together.
said that Ma Yinghua was going to go to the upper room, and the daughter-in-law was sitting in the small confinement, and it was inconvenient for the father-in-law to come to this house.
Zhou Lanxiang grabbed Ma Yinghua again: "Sister Ma, you are a good person to the end, and then help me." Can you tell my family that his in-laws gave him food, don't be angry with me, and don't move his front foot and send it back to his back foot. It's not that I don't respect the elderly, but I'm always so hungry that I won't be able to conceive a child in the future......"
Ma Yinghua patted Zhou Lanxiang's hand: "Don't worry, this eldest sister will definitely be able to do it for you!" You can rest assured! ”
Ma Yinghua took the lead and went to the upper room, Wang Xu also hurriedly pulled Wang Wufu to follow, Zhang Guirong was in a dilemma, but he still followed, and pointed at Zhou Lanxiang hatefully before leaving: "You wait for me to clean you up later!" ”
Watching the excitement is also more than half of the past, several people who usually have a good relationship with Zhou Lanxiang told her to take care of it, after tossing for so long, her body will definitely not be able to stand it, and they will come to talk to her when she is better.
Xiaoshan sent everyone away before going to find Wang Dajiang, and he was not at ease halfway through, so he ran home to get a lock and locked the door of his sister's house before going to find someone.
I'm afraid that someone will come and bully my sister when he's not there.
Zhou Lanxiang lay down and rested with confidence, with Ma Yinghua coming forward, and so many neighbors watching, her face-loving father-in-law would definitely be very generous.
When she lay down, she was so sleepy that her mind was not very clear, and she really bleed and injured her body, and she fell asleep almost instantly.
I don't know how long I slept, but I was woken up by Xiaoshan in a daze, and the house was already lit with a dim kerosene lamp.
Xiaoshan brought over a big bowl, and her beautiful big eyes flashed with joy: "Sister, you drink some porridge and then sleep." ”
Zhou Lanxiang looked at the thick millet porridge and two boiled eggs in the bowl, and then looked at her younger brother's proud appearance, and also smiled: "You want to come from the upper room?" ”
Xiaoshan held the porridge bowl for her sister and handed her a small aluminum spoon with pits: "Sister Ma will bring back half a bucket (one bucket is about twelve catties) of millet, two buckets of corn pellets, two large bowls of soybeans, and twenty eggs!" ”
At most, the grain will be distributed in half a month, and now almost every family's grain hoards have bottomed out, and even Zhou Lanxiang didn't expect to come back so much.
It is enough to see how much food is in the upper room!
Zhou Lanxiang didn't want to think about the Wang family's bad things anymore, anyway, she had already walked out in the first step, so let's take my time in the future!
She looked at her younger brother who was holding the bowl for herself, and her heart was warm and a little sad, the child was too thin: "Have you eaten?" Let's sleep here with my sister tonight! ”
Xiaoshan was even happier when he heard this, and quickly nodded: "Hmm! Eaten. Sister, I will serve you every day in the future! Today, Sister Ma told Shangfang that you can't take care of him, let him recuperate in Shangfang, and they all agreed. ”
Zhou Lanxiang immediately heard that Xiaoshan was no longer willing to call Wang Manchu brother-in-law.
It must have been when they went to the house to ask for food today, the Wang family and Wang Manchu said something hurtful.
Zhou Lanxiang didn't want the child to be sad and uncomfortable again, so she first stuffed a spoonful of thick and fragrant millet porridge into his mouth before she started eating: "What about Xiaojin?" He's not in trouble, is he? ”
Xiaoshan stared, he didn't expect his sister to suddenly stuff him. In the past, when my sister was not married, she would often suddenly stuff a mouthful of hot and fragrant delicious food into his and brother's mouths, and then watch them smile softly and gently.
That was his happiest and warmest memory, his sister was so beautiful and gentle at that time!
After getting married, he has never seen such a relaxed and gentle sister.
Xiaoshan's eyes were a little hot, and he hurriedly swallowed the porridge in his mouth and the choked throat in it: "I haven't seen Brother Jin since then, and he didn't come over today." "This is actually a little strange, it stands to reason that there is such a big thing in my sister today, and the whole Tunzi is talking about it hotly, Brother Jin must come to take a look, and even beat Lao Wang's family to make my sister angry.
Zhou Lanxiang was also worried, and told Xiaoshan seriously: "When you see Xiao Jin, you quickly let her come to me, if he wants to do something out of the ordinary, you can't hide it from me!" Sister has planned, you two are not allowed to do bad things about sister! ”
Xiaoshan hurriedly nodded: "Sister, don't worry!" I listen to you! ”
If he had said so before today, he would still be worried that his sister would not be able to do it, but today after reading a few words from his sister, he rectified the old Wang family, and now he really believes in his sister!
Zhou Lanxiang's eyes were also a little hot, finally, she could be Xiaoshan's support and no longer drag him down.
In the future, she wants to be a good sister to Xiaoshan and Xiaojin!
