Chapter Fifty-Seven: Creation Makes People There is thunder in the silence
a)
Before the winter, Wen Yuanfang and Zhu Yuliang went to Tangfeng Village on the seventy-ninth birthday of their mother Lou Xiangfu.
The old man is completely bedridden, usually coughing up thick phlegm, and there are occasional blood streaks in the sputum, and his life is completely dependent on the eldest daughter-in-law Zhou Jiahong. When she saw her youngest son and "Xiao Nan" go back to visit, she was naturally extremely happy and relieved in her heart.
Her eyes, which had little vitality left, were tightly surrounded by crumbling skin, like two ponds about to be swallowed up by a mudslide; Even if there is an epic of earth-shattering ghosts and gods in the eyes like soybean oil lamps, it is difficult to express it again. But she kept looking at her youngest son and daughter-in-law, for fear that they would disappear in the blink of an eye.
The old man stretched out his skinny and earthworm-covered hands, holding his youngest son with one hand and his little daughter-in-law with the other, and said with difficulty: "Mom is useless, but I can't close my eyes now: first, your eldest brother hasn't come home yet, and I have to wait for him; The second is that your family of three has not been reunited, and Jingnan has not returned from Xiaoyizhuang; The third is that Wu Wei has not married a daughter-in-law...... Mom has too many things to shake! As the old man spoke, two lines of muddy tears flowed down.
After Wen Yuanfang and Zhu Yuliang listened to their mother's words, their hearts seemed to be blocked by a mess, and there was an indescribable suffocation and helplessness. "Mom, don't think about it, you still have a long lifespan! Big brother should be home next year, right? Sister-in-law, right? Next year, we will definitely take Jingnan back to Jiyang! As for Wu Wei, you don't have to worry, he is so smart and capable, how can he not marry a daughter-in-law? Wen Yuanfang comforted his mother with tears in his eyes.
Zhu Yuliang echoed her husband's words and said to her mother-in-law: "We went home this time specifically to celebrate my mother's 80th birthday; After her 80th birthday, my mother will live a long life. β
Zhu Yuliang recalled that when he first came to Tangfeng Village, he secretly vowed to help her husband boost the Wen family; And now, except for Wen Yuanfang's official position, the Wen family does not seem to show signs of prosperity, how can it show more and more irreversible defeat? This made Zhu Yuliang feel twelve points of guilt and worry.
Zhu Yuliang saw that his mother-in-law was still in good spirits, so he and Zhou Jiahong repaired her nails, took a bath, combed her hair, and changed into a new dark blue slanted spring and autumn shirt. After the old lady was taken care of by her daughters-in-law, she was really much more energetic.
After taking care of his mother-in-law, Zhu Yuliang took out peanuts, chestnuts and yellow sprouts brought from Chengguan from his bag, and began to cook an 80th birthday banquet for his mother-in-law. Wen Wuwei killed a rooster and put it on the stove after cleaning it up; Zhou Jiahong started to beat the little concubine and lit the fire; Wen Yuanfang was talking to his mother in the living room.
β¦β¦

In the evening, preparations for the birthday banquet with four meats, six vegetarian dishes, and a longevity noodle staple came to a halt. So, the Wen family closed the door early, and after the old lady Lou Xiangfu was placed on the Eight Immortals table in the living room, she accepted the birthday greetings of her son, daughter-in-law and grandson; After the birthday worship, the birthday banquet begins.
Zhou Jiahong patiently waited for his mother-in-law to eat, and praised for the first time: "Yuliang is really an extraordinary cook, my mother hasn't eaten so much for a long time; You can see that she is in very good spirits and mood today. β
Zhu Yuliang replied: "Sister-in-law, it's really not easy! Serving people is the most tiring, and it is difficult for me to come back from afar once in a while, and it is all up to my sister-in-law to work hard here alone. Sister-in-law must drink my toast! After speaking, she stood up and toasted Zhou Jiahong.
Zhou Jiahong saw the little concubine toasting her, and hurriedly stood up with a flattered and frightened look. "Sister-in-law! Don't get up! I salute you with Yuliang, and I also toast you for my eldest brother! Seeing this, Wen Yuanfang also stood up and toasted his sister-in-law.
Zhou Jiahong's nose was sour, and tears came out of his eyes; She hurriedly put down her glass, said, "It's so embarrassing...... and left the table with her face covered and ran upstairs......
"It's better to let her cry...... She usually doesn't have a chance to cry, so who can she cry to? Wu Wei, you must honor your mother in the future! She really hasn't enjoyed a single day of happiness! Lou Xiangfu blew his nose and told his grandson in a clichΓ©.
"Grandma, I see." Wen Wuwei responded to his grandmother while continuing to drink.
Wen Yuanfang asked his nephew: "Your father should go home next year, right?" By next year, it will be twenty-four years! β
Wen Wuwei replied: "Uncle! In fact, Daddy was free a year ago; But the policy stipulates that if he continues to stay on the farm, he can get 15 yuan a month for living expenses. Therefore, he said that he came back to eat idle food, and he had no income, and since he could support himself, he should continue to work on the farm for a while. If he really can't do it, he will go home to retire. Alasβ" he said, and took another long sip of wine, as if to sip all the bitterness of his twenty-four years of life into his stomach.
"Oh! So how are your personal issues progressing? You've got twenty-four this year, right? Wen Yuanfang felt that he usually didn't care enough about his nephew, and now he could only ask about the situation and show his verbal concern.
Lou Xiangfu sighed and replied for his grandson: "Don't ask Wu Wei!" He's annoyed. A while ago, I talked about a big girl from a neighboring village, and the two of them were very right, but the woman's family didn't agree, and I thought my family was not good! In short, for the big girl of Yiwuwei, in the end, we all think that our family has historical problems. I don't know what I did in my last life! The old lady's good mood was short-lived, and she was soon coughed away by a desperate cough.

When Zhu Xinghua and his wife received the news of the "remarriage" of their eldest daughter and eldest son-in-law, a stone in their hearts finally landed. Zhu Xinghua and his wife believe that the eldest son Zhu Zhili has already become a family, and now it is the turn to worry about the marriage and love of the second daughter Zhu Yushan.
Although Zhu Xinghua and his wife were quite surprised by Liu Zhixun's sudden adoption of their nephew, their views on this matter were the same as Zhu Yuliang's, and they also resolutely supported the second daughter to talk to Liu Zhixun. Moreover, Liu Minglei is very similar to Zhu Zhihui when he was a child, and he is also a master who loves flowers when everyone sees them, but he is not afraid of life, and he always shows a down-and-out and generous appearance.
After Zhu Yushan had the support of his family, he decided to continue to get along with "Prince Charming". Therefore, after a short period of "freezing", the relationship between the two quickly recovered to room temperature and continued to heat up and ferment.
Xu Guiying did not hide her love for Liu Zhixun at all, as if the saying "mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she looks at it, the happier she becomes" was invented especially for her. Because Liu Zhixun would roll up his sleeves to help his future mother-in-law clean the courtyard, carry water and chop firewood, and choose vegetables for the fire...... Back then, Wen Yuanfang, a deputy company-level officer who was one level lower than Liu Zhixun's position, didn't have such a good performance in the Zhujia.
Therefore, compared with the lofty and unruly of the talented man Wen Yuan, Liu Zhixun's diligence, enthusiasm and cordiality to the family seem to be more pleasing to the Zhu Xinghua couple; At the same time, perhaps because of the close age, Liu Zhixun gets along with his brothers and sisters in all families, so that no one in the family dislikes him, as if he was born with a different surname.
Whenever Wen Jing felt that the daytime with her grandmother was lonely and boring, she looked forward to the appearance of "Uncle Liu" and "Brother Lei". In her young heart, she has no distinction between high and low and high and low for all the characters who appear in her life movies, nor does she care about the time when these characters appear, let alone whether these characters are related to herself, whoever can win her favor and favor can become an important role in her life movie. Now, "Uncle Liu" and "Brother Lei" have obviously become indispensable characters in the movies of her life.
Wen Jing now has more than a dozen villain books, most of which were brought to her by Liu Minglei. She will read a villain book repeatedly, and the more she reads, the more interesting she becomes; Then when Brother Lei came, she discussed with him the plot and characters in the villain book, like two elementary school scholars, there are so many common languages that they can't talk about endlessly.
One afternoon near the Chinese New Year, Xu Guiying carried a large basket of clothes to the pond to wash, leaving her granddaughter alone at home to read the villain's book. Wen Jing had a stomachache when she looked at it, and she sat on the bamboo chair and hummed non-stop. At this time, Liu Zhixun and Liu Minglei's uncle and nephew happened to come, and they came to deliver New Year's goods.
"Jingjing! What happened to you? What about Grandma? As soon as Liu Zhixun put down the New Year's goods, he ran over eagerly and asked.
"Uncle Liu, Brother Lei! I had a stomachache and my grandmother went to the pond to do the laundry. Wen Jing said listlessly.
"Ming Lei! You go to the pond to inform your grandmother, and I will carry Jingjing to the regimental hospital. You're waiting for me at my grandmother's house! Liu Zhixun said and picked up Wen Jing and walked out.
"Okay!" After Liu Minglei responded crisply, he ran to find his grandmother in the pond.
When Wen Jing lay on Liu Zhixun's strong and solid back, her little nest felt so ironed, so warm, and so secure! Uncle Liu exudes an aura called "fatherly love", which makes this lonely villain intoxicated - she fantasizes that she is Uncle Liu's biological daughter and Brother Lei's own sister. Thinking about it, she actually fell asleep on Uncle Liu's back......
β¦β¦
Once, Liu Minglei asked Wen Jing: "Jingjing! Why do you have one single eyelid and one double eyelid? β
"Because my mom has double eyelids and my dad has single eyelids!" Wen Jing replied.
"Oh! I have double eyelids in both eyes, is it because my father and mother have double eyelids? Liu Minglei looked real.
"Brother Lei doesn't like Jingjing's dragon and phoenix eyes?" Wen Jing tilted her head and asked.
"I like it! If I lose you in the future, as long as I see a woman with a pair of dragon and phoenix eyes, I know it must be you! Liu Minglei flashed a pair of bright eyes with long eyelashes, and said with a mischievous expression.

In the blink of an eye, it's the Spring Festival again. Except for the occasional break in extraordinary years, it is a practice for Wen Yuanfang and Zhu Yuliang to return to Xiaoyizhuang for the New Year, not to mention that their crystallization is still there. In addition, this year, they have experienced a marriage process from divorce to "reunion", whether it is in front of the family or in front of their daughter, they must "return the home of both husband and wife." β
As soon as Wen Jing saw her father, she began to stick to him. When Dad was outside brushing his teeth, she would crouch on the ground and watch how he made a mouthful of foam, and then swept it clean again; Dad didn't care to rest first, so he held her on his lap and gave her origami airplanes, paper clothes, paper boats, and paper hunchback people......
"Jingjing! Dad just got out of the car and didn't have to sleep in the car at night, do you want Dad to rest before sticking to him? Xu Guiying lovingly persuaded her father's granddaughter.
"No! I'm just going to cling to my dad. Wen Jing said coquettishly.
"Good, good! Dad has been with Jingjingha! Not going anywhere. Wen Yuanfang said in a doting tone to the lady who thought about it day and night.
So, when her father slept, Wen Jing lay quietly beside her father with her eyes open; When she eats, she has to sit next to her father and ask him to pick up vegetables for her...... Her stickiness towards her father made the family very strange, and even made Zhu Yuliang cry and laugh, and she was not less blinded by her brother-in-law Zhu Zhicheng.
This Spring Festival, Wen Yuanfang also saw "Liu Zhixun" with a good reputation for the first time. As a fellow villager in Shaoxing and a "comrade-in-arms" of the Xiaoyizhuang troops, they naturally have a lot to talk about. Wen Yuanfang had also heard Zhu Yuliang talk about Liu Zhixun's adoption of his nephew before, so he asked with concern: "Why didn't you bring your nephew?" β
"Oh! I sent him to his mom for the Chinese New Year. After the New Year, I will pick up and go to school. Liu Zhixun replied.
"It's very hard for you to take your nephew alone! If your tank company goes out for training, what will happen to your nephew? Wen Yuanfang continued to ask.
"Oh! Lei Lei is older, he will cook and do laundry by himself. If I go out for a few days, I ask my sisters-in-law in the family building to watch him a little. What else can be done? My mom is also getting older, and there are several children in the family who need her to take care of. So, I desperately need to become a family. Ha ha! Liu Zhixun said with a wry smile.
Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read. It is inconvenient for Wen Yuanfang to ask further, so as not to touch the hidden pain of others.
β¦β¦
One afternoon, Zhu Yuliang wanted to help his mother and sister prepare dinner for the evening, and Wen Yuanfang took his daughter to the hometown of Xiaoyi Zhuang to revisit.
When passing by the Gonggong Dam, Wen Yuanfang asked his daughter, "Did you fall into the river in the summer?" How dangerous! In the future, no one is allowed to come to the river to play? Do you hear that? β
"I heard you!" Wen Jing replied embarrassedly. "However, Brother Lei Lei is not celebrating the New Year in Xiaoyizhuang, I'm not happy!" She said this coldly.
"Brother Lei Lei? I heard that you and he are very good. Is that right? When Wen Yuanfang heard the word "Lei Lei" again, his heart couldn't help but throb, but he quickly felt that he was too sensitive, how could there be such a coincidence in the world! I don't know what happened to Lei Lei and his mother, grandmother, and old lady now. In addition to writing a letter of peace after returning to Jiyang that year, he didn't contact Sun Lei for five years; He often wanted to write a letter to greet him, but he was afraid of touching some sore spots on both sides and adding to his sorrow, so he repeatedly picked up the pen and put it aside repeatedly.
"Hmmm! Brother Lei and I can say anything! Dad, may I ask you a question? Wen Jing asked solemnly while lying on her father's back.
"What's the problem? You said! β
"What color is your urine?"
"Pee? Yellow, everybody's yellow! Why do you ask this question? β
"Hmmm! Brother Lei's urine is also yellow. So why is Brother Dabao's urine different? This question has obviously bothered Wen Jing for a long time.
"What? You repeat! Wen Yuanfang immediately put his daughter on the ground, grabbed her shoulders and asked with a serious face.
Wen Jing was obviously frightened by her father's expression. She hesitated, not knowing where she had said the wrong thing, so she kept silent.
"Good! Tell Dad, why do you say that Brother Dabao's urine is different? What happened to him, you? Wen Yuanfang suppressed his eagerness and asked his daughter as pleasantly as possible.
"Brother Dabao shot urine at me and Sister Tingting, cumming on our skirts, sticky, so disgusting!" Wen Jing frowned and said disgustedly.
After hearing this, Wen Yuanfang only felt that five thunders thundered and the sky swirled; He had no intention of returning to the same place, and he had to go back immediately to talk to his wife, Zhu Yuliang.
