Chapter 123: Preliminary Plan

These people have vented enough in the courtyard, and when they look back, they see that people are pointing behind their backs, talking to each other about something, which is very detrimental to their reputation, so they stop insulting and accusing. In these critical eyes, their arrogance suddenly became a little shorter.

Now seeing that their uncles and aunts can't afford to provoke them, they all leave in a hurry, and the neighbors who came to watch the battle are also scattered in whispers. Ren Haoxuan's father stood in the yard trembling with anger, he was taught a lesson by a few nephews just now, and his iron mouth had nothing to say. It is difficult for a Qing official to interrupt family affairs, and he has to endure it if he is unreasonable or not. When his nephew and his nieces and daughters-in-law had gone, he returned to the house with a pale face, and sat down on a chair, breathless. People die like lights go out, the old man is gone, relatives are cut off, and the huge courtyard suddenly quiets down. Like a pool of stagnant water, it suddenly lost its life.

"Why are all your relatives like this? As for the people in the city, they all look like broken horses and Zhang Fei, and they dress quite like people, and they don't even have the most basic quality. Where is this a funeral, it is clearly here to bully people. Especially your sisters-in-law, they are also arguing, they are too capable of pretending, I think such relatives will not be able to interact with them in the future, as if someone owes them something, it is really too deceitful! I don't know how your parents offended them......" Sun Xiaohong finally saw the clue, and she said angrily.

"After my aunt died, this family of relatives broke off contact. We haven't moved much between us all these years, who has nothing to do to offend them? My grandmother was paralyzed for ten years, and they rarely came to see her at home. My grandmother was seriously ill the other day, and after my dad called them, they didn't come over. was scheduled to get up early and be buried, but they didn't come until noon, this is not Wang Mazi's plaster, it's not looking for a disease, and what's it for! Hi! After Ren Haoxuan finished whispering, he buried his head in his chest. may be too deeply resentful, and he can't figure out this messy family matter.

"Listen to what they mean behind their backs, when your grandmother was sick, you didn't give them a letter, and now people can't do it, so I remembered to call them. Now that they're here and they're buried, can you not be angry, I guess they might be picking on your father, right? Sun Xiaohong asked with a frown.

"They have something to fault with. I probably shouldn't have said that, my grandmother has had dementia for ten years, and they don't know it, and they never come to see it. Now that the people are gone and the coffin is buried, they came to the house to pick out the ready-made reason, this is not deliberately to add fuel to the fire, or what? To put it bluntly, they didn't come to the funeral at all, they came to find fault and fight to watch the excitement. Ren Haoxuan didn't look up, he said helplessly.

"I look at it, look at your two sisters-in-law, one by one, like a yaksha, standing in the courtyard, it seems that they can eat people. A niece and daughter-in-law, it is embarrassing enough to watch the excitement on the side, and the war is like eating pie, and it is also mixed in. You didn't see it just now, your person who called her sister is even more hateful, she still has a few coins in her hand, shouting in the yard, as if she can't fit her in the world, she is simply a madman, and she has no education at all. I feel like I have won a battle, that snarky face, and the people in the city, it seems that even a housewife is not as good as such a relative, and if I meet them on the street in the future, I really have to hide away, so as not to get into bad luck! Sun Xiaohong loves to hold grievances, she can't see these dogs fighting people the most, she feels that she has two hits, and she doesn't take anyone in her eyes, she feels very hateful.

"People respect what they have, but dogs bite ugly. Isn't our family poor, if my dad were the mayor, they wouldn't be so troublesome, maybe they could help Zhang Luo Zhangluo. Don't talk about it, it's all tears. You're tired all day, so hurry up and go inside and rest for a while, right? Walk! He didn't want to say any more. Fortunately, grandma has been buried in the ground, otherwise, it would be unimaginable. Ren Haoxuan didn't want to say any more, he stood up and stretched out his hand to pull Sun Xiaohong up.

After the two of them entered the hospital, Ren Haoxuan closed the two iron doors, and a cool breeze blew, and the courtyard was even more lifeless.

In the late autumn dusk, the sun gradually dimmed, and the cold wind blew around in the courtyard, like a huge fan, in the white moonlight, wantonly swept away the old time. This year, the wind and rain are good, and the crops in the fields are on the field, and the corn cobs are piled up like a mountain, the grains are full, and the yard is full of gold.

After dinner, the whole family sits in the yard picking corn, and then puts the corn on the shelves to dry. Sun Xiaohong was about to load a corn in her hand when she suddenly heard the sound of opening the courtyard door. She looked back and saw Ren Haoxuan hurriedly walking in from outside, and hurriedly beckoned to him and said, "You came just in time, hurry up and come over to help!" ”

Ren Haoxuan hurriedly walked over, he didn't even change the clothes on his body, he bent down and began to work. Xiaohong's mother hurriedly said on the side: "You kid, let the family work when you meet." Last time, I came to help your dad threshing grain, and now I have people serving baskets, so I don't treat others as outsiders! There's not much work left, it'll be done in a while, so don't need you, let's go into the house and rest! Xiaohong's mother looked at the stack of corn raised high, and she kept urging Ren Haoxuan to enter the house to rest. Ren Haoxuan picked up a large bamboo basket full of corn and quickly poured it on the corn stack that was more than one person high. Then, carrying an empty basket, he walked up to Sun Xiaohong with a smile and squatted down.

"If he were an outsider, I wouldn't let him do this work, and I would have let him go to the side to cool off! They are all children from the countryside, and they are not golden branches and jade leaves, they can't carry baskets in their hands and shoulders, and their families also grow budding rice, so what can't they do with this little work? You say, I'm right! Sun Xiaohong smiled at him. "Of course!" Ren Haoxuan said with a smile. No matter what Sun Xiaohong said in front of him, he nodded and said yes.

"You see you're so busy these days, you can't take care of anything. Look at your grandmother's business, why don't you say it in advance! Xiaohong only found out when she came back! Speaking of his grandmother's funeral, Ren Haoxuan lowered his head and thought for a long time before saying: "My grandmother's illness has been more than ten years, and when she died, it was just in time for the autumn harvest, and my father was afraid that you would not be busy, so he didn't give you a letter." If Xiaohong didn't go by herself, she probably wouldn't know. ”

"What's this, your dad thinks a lot! Xiao Hao, isn't your harvest also good? Xiaohong's mother asked while picking up buds.

"It's okay, the buds are growing pretty well. On the day of my grandmother's funeral, the whole family was busy with the funeral and lost a lot, and my father followed the footprints and searched the field for several days, but he didn't find a single ear. Although he also knew who stole it, he pulled the man down without pressing him to the ground. My dad said that if you break your wealth and avoid disasters, you can't eat enough food on the side of the bowl anyway, so just throw it away. ”

"In these days, there is everyone. Stealing people is not rich, one step more lenient, it's really annoying! Go back and tell your dad not to get angry, you can still earn it back when the money is gone. The crops are lost, let's plant them again next year......"

The corn piles in the yard were soon on the shelves. Xiaohong's mother looked at the towering corn stacks, she shook the dust on her body and smiled with satisfaction. After everyone entered the house, while Sun Xiaohong was not in the house, Ren Haoxuan solemnly said to Xiaohong's mother: "Aunt, Xiaohong and I have been from the house for nearly a year, and the last time I went home, my father discussed it with me. If the two families don't have any ideas, he wants the two of us to tie the knot first, and then transfer Xiaohong to our village to teach, so that we can also take care of it. ”

"Did you tell Xiaohong about this? What did she say? Xiaohong's mother listened, thought for a long time, and asked casually.

"I told her! But she didn't say anything, just said that the work couldn't be transferred back, and the two of us had to live in two places. I've been thinking about it for a long time before I want to study with you and see what to do. Ren Haoxuan nodded. He had told Sun Xiaohong about transferring Sun Xiaohong to the primary school in their village. There is also a shortage of teachers in their village. However, casually transferring a private teacher is not something that can be transferred by anyone who says it, and it is easy to resign there. The acceptance here may not be so smooth. The layers of relationships in it, if you don't open up the joints one by one, this thing will be much more difficult to do. If you can't adjust it, after getting married, there will be more difficulties, and there will be more things to scratch your head in the future, Ren Haoxuan frowned.

He wanted to tie the knot first and transfer Sun Xiaohong to work, and talk about it later. He was afraid that Xiaohong's mother would not agree, so he only said half of it tentatively, and put the other half in his heart for the time being.

"It's not a trivial matter, you'll have to think about it. Actually, your uncle and I are also quite worried about this. It would be best if I could be transferred to your side, so that both of you have jobs, and I can rest assured that you are in front of your parents. If you can't transfer it, the two of you will live in two places in the future, one in the unit and the other in the student dormitory, which is not a long-term solution. When you have a child, there is no one around to take care of you, and it will be difficult to live a difficult life. Xiaohong's mother looked at Ren Haoxuan in embarrassment, the difficulty was in front of her, how difficult it was. As a parent, she had to remind him. Love and marriage are two different things, once married, the two organize a family, and the two of them will live together in the future, it is inevitable that there will be some bumps and bumps.

Xiaohong's mother said this, naturally there is a reason for her to say this. For so many years, Sun Xiaohong has been teaching in addition to studying, and she has no housework. Now that she's married and lets her live on her own, she's really relieved to be a mother.

"It's not a problem to teach with us. Xiaohong now teaches middle school, and when she comes to teach primary school with us, the salary problem is equivalent to a notch down. I'm not worried about anything else, I'm afraid that Xiaohong will be unbalanced and won't be able to accept it after she goes. "That being said, I don't know how difficult it is to do. Ren Haoxuan scratched the back of his head and said in a consultative tone.

"Your uncle and I can't be the master of this matter, we have to see what Xiaohong thinks. When she comes back in a while, let's discuss it again and see what she says. Marriage is a lifelong event, although our family has nothing to say, and we don't want any bride price, so we can't marry our daughter in a daze, and you have to follow the trend of what you should buy. Xiaohong's mother said, she glanced at Ren Haoxuan helplessly. When this child took one step at a time, and nothing went well, Xiaohong's mother couldn't help but feel sorry for Xiaohong.
