Mrs. Tao always scolded like this when she hurt herself, the husband and wife complained to each other, the man thought his wife was incompetent, and the husband and wife lost money and daughters, and finally gave birth to a son.

"Of course, it is also my Tao family's ancestral grave that smokes, and I can be admitted to the second daughter's middle school if I lose money, or I will be born for free, and I will marry a good family in the future, and my life will not be in vain." Mr. Tao usually ends his complaint with such words. And Mrs. Tao nagged about how unfortunate she was for a long time, marrying a poor bastard, struggling for half his life, and only a small clerk in a bank, and his life was nothing but failure.

"You are all my failures, one or two, and I even gave birth to four! I'm crazy to give birth to four children like this.

Mrs. Tao wept when she was sad.

Tao Zhizhi has long been worried about these things, what can she do if she is sad, her parents are such people, since she can remember, they have been complaining and attacking each other, Tao Zhizhi is precocious and calm, knowing that only by working hard can he break free from this oppressive environment, and counting on his parents' conscience to find out that it is a pipe dream.

She went to cook in silence.

There was a messy pile of cabbage leaves next to the stove, and I thought that Mrs. Tao would take advantage of the lack of people in the morning market and sneak around her younger brother to pick up cabbage leaves. Tao Zhizhi sighed deeply, and Mrs. Tao's scolding gradually became less harsh, life has never been easy.

She washed the cabbage, washed the rice, made a fire and began to cook the porridge. With the smell of water, the aroma of rice begins to spread.

It's strange today, on such a cold day, children should like hot porridge very much, in the past, the two younger sisters had already come over and shouted to eat, but today...... Tao Zhizhi walked out with vegetable porridge and found that only her mother was left walking around with her son in her arms, still humming a song in her mouth, and her two younger sisters were gone! When I looked at the door again, the umbrella was gone!

Tao Zhizhi was shocked, put down the porridge and rushed out the door. As soon as the door opened, a cold air rushed in, and her mother couldn't help coughing, and hugged her son tightly in her arms: "Evil, I finally saved up some hot air and was let go by you again." ”

Tao Zhizhi didn't care about her nagging, and ran to the door, but there was no one at the door.

She looked left and right, looking around for the figures of her two younger sisters. Suddenly she heard a child's cry, and hurried to find it, and the twin sisters were sitting in the muddy water crying, and they had nothing in their hands.

"What's wrong? What's wrong with you two? ”

Seeing that there was nothing in their hands, Tao Zhizhi's heart sank suddenly: "What about the umbrella, where did you get the umbrella?" ”

One sister just kept crying, and the other grinned and shouted, "Someone snatched it, and one person snatched the umbrella." ”

Tao Zhizhi was furious: "Who? Who snatched it? Where are you going? ”

Her sister pointed to the alleyway. Tao Zhizhi chased after her without thinking about it, and her sister sat on the ground and cried: "Sister doesn't care about us!" What sister? ”

I don't know when the umbrella was snatched away, Tao Zhizhi ran to the alley, there was no one in the vast rain and fog, she almost cried: This umbrella is very expensive, what if it is really lost? After a while, a figure appeared in the rain and mist, and Tao Zhizhi ran forward, only to find that it was her father. Her father had a briefcase on his head, and his best suit was soaked by the rain and hung limply on his body, like rotten vegetable leaves picked up in the market.

"Ah, is my baby daughter here to give her an umbrella to her father?" Mr. Tao was overjoyed when he saw his daughter running over, and then saw that his daughter had nothing in her hands.

"What are you running out for? If you catch a cold, how can your family have the money to see a doctor? Yes? Mr. Tao's face immediately changed.

Tao Zhizhi asked: "Dad, do you see anyone walking over with a black umbrella, not an oil-paper umbrella, but an umbrella made of black silk, and a black cloth silk with a shiny umbrella." ”

"What kind of umbrella, this kind of day is just a person like me who wants to come back in the rain, who doesn't take a rickshaw with a little spare money in his hand, it's really unlucky, just this set of good clothes, it's all over, and I'll wear it tomorrow."

Tao Zhizhi reluctantly followed her father home, and when he walked to the alley, Mr. Tao saw the two daughters sitting on the ground crying, and turned around and yelled: "Are you crazy? Your sister is sitting on the ground crying, see? ”

Tao Zhizhi was also angry: "They asked for it, they lost the umbrella I brought, Dad, it was an umbrella bought for ten yuan!" ”

"Bastard! Ten yuan, do you know how much rice to buy? Going to buy an umbrella? ”

Mr. Tao was already angry when he was wet in the rain, and at this moment, he slapped his daughter angrily.

Among the three daughters, because Tao Zhizhi is smart and capable, has good grades, and can do any housework, he has always been favored at home and rarely beaten, this time Mr. Tao is really angry. Ten dollars, ten dollars for an umbrella, how expensive is that! What a loser, is it easy for me to lie down at the table every day and light an oil lamp to copy? I can't earn ten dollars in half a month.

"It's not our umbrella, I borrowed my classmate's umbrella and lost it. Dad, how can I have the face to face my classmates. Tao Zhizhi covered his face and cried.

When Mrs. Tao saw her husband come in with a black face, followed by three daughters who kept crying, she only felt that her head was buzzing: "God, what are you all running out to do when it's raining?" What do you do to see a doctor when you are sick? How can there be money? My God, what kind of sin has this been created, one, two, three, are angry with me, Xiaohui, how old are you, and you are not sensible when your sister is not sensible? ”

"Mom, now you know you're in a hurry, just now the two of them ran out with umbrellas, why didn't Mom find out? The umbrella was lost by them, what will I give back to my classmates tomorrow, Mom, you also said, it's a ten-dollar umbrella! ”

"What, you lost the umbrella your sister brought back?" Mrs. Tao was startled, "When did you run out with an umbrella, oh my God, you are too bold and must be beaten." ”

"Mom, you just think about your brother, and they don't care if they both go out."

Tao Zhizhi was so angry that he almost jumped to his feet, her father took off his soaked clothes, and muttered: "I have never seen such a person, the head of the family is soaked all over, and he didn't hurry up to get some hot water for me to wash." ”

"Xiaohui, go boil some hot water for your father."

"Mom, they lost my umbrella, what should I do?"

"What to do? Can I conjure an umbrella? Who told you to borrow someone else's umbrella, didn't your dad get wet too, why can't you get wet? What do you have more? ”

"Mom, I'm wearing a wool sweater, it's wool, and it will shrink when you get wet."

"Okay, isn't it just an umbrella? Find an oil-paper umbrella and return it. ”

Her father said impatiently.

"But other people's silk umbrellas, Dad, we can't afford to pay for it."

"If you can't afford to pay, you won't pay, just tell others that you won't pay, we can't afford to pay if we are poor, whoever calls us poor, the poor are like this!"

Mr. Tao is right.

Tao Zhizhi went to the back room to boil water with tears, and the two younger sisters complained: "My sister doesn't care about us, and my sister throws us into the muddy water and doesn't care about us." ”
