Chapter 400: Chinese New Year's Eve 1991
"I want to have a home, a place that doesn't need to be gorgeous, and when I'm tired, I think of it
I want to have a home, a place that doesn't need to be big, so that when I'm frightened, I won't be afraid. ”
In the Spring Festival Gala in 1991, the song "I Want to Have a Home" became popular all over the country. After a year, Zhang Yao finally returned to her in-law's house for the New Year. The singing voice coming out of the TV made her have mixed feelings, although the house was in tatters, and her mother-in-law's face was still so ugly, but living in her own place, Zhang Yao finally had a sense of security.
"Sell Erya, you can also rent a store to do something in the coming year!" Zhang Yao's mother-in-law said to Zhang Yao who was watching TV while facing each other: "It's the most fashionable time to do business now, haven't you heard that now intellectuals and college students are going to the sea to do business." It was said on the radio that the southern side was doing a prosperous job. ”
Zhang Yao hugged her daughter, her face full of anger: "If you sell your house if you don't have money, why sell my child?" I will never have children in the future, the more money I have, the more I have children, and the more I have children, the more money I have." ”
"What do you want you to do if you don't have children?" Mother Song slammed the basin in her hand on the kang: "It's the New Year, can't I talk to you well, I have to beat you up?"
"I tell you, I'm like this, and if you don't want to live, pull it down. This time, I won't cooperate with you at all! My mother's family can support me!" Zhang Yao looked like she was not afraid of heaven and earth, and her mother's family had someone to support her.
"Do you think you are Kou Xi? Kou Xi can make money, can you make money?" Song's mother looked disdainful: "A daughter-in-law like Kou Xi, if it were me, I would be willing to ask for it." You can do anything, if you are afraid of having a girl, you can earn me money so that I can live a good life. You see how dark and small and thin you are. I told Jianguo a long time ago, it's not easy for you to give birth, he doesn't believe it. ”
"Why do people give birth to daughters like queens, and I give birth to daughters like a maid, and I am scolded every day!" Zhang Yao was very unconvinced: "They are all women, they are all girls." ”
"I say sell it!" Mother Song's attitude was very resolute: "I have discussed it with Jianguo, and I told you that I want you to have a reunion with her." It also completes the fate of our family and her, and the family's difficulties are given to a good family. ”
"Song Jianguo agreed again? What about you using me as a fertility machine? Give birth to one and sell one, give birth to one and sell one!" Zhang Yao felt very sad, this child was different from the previous one. The last time she spent with the child was very short, but this one was different, this one she took care of for a whole year. How could she be willing to give away her child.
"You lied to me!" Song Jianguo came back from outside, and he hadn't had time to take off his clothes. Zhang Yao rushed in front of him and slapped him in the mouth.
"What are you doing for the New Year?" Song Jianguo was punched inexplicably and yelled at her angrily. Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at his mother and saw that she was looking at him fixedly.
"You know?" Song Jianguo sighed: "The buyers have all been contacted, and the two of them are in their thirties and have no children." Both of them work in the city, both have formal jobs, and the children are better than us!"
"I don't agree!" Zhang Yao roared: "I have raised this child for a year, I raised it myself, you haven't paid a penny, why should you sell my child." Are you qualified? None of you are qualified!"
"You two still have to live, and our family really doesn't have much money now. Last year, Jianguo stayed at home for a year, and he planted that little land!" Song's mother looked helpless: "This child is sold, isn't there still a boss." Your dad now has necrosis of the femoral head and is paralyzed on the kang and unable to move. There is such a laborer at home, and you say you can't do it. If you don't sell your children, how can you live?"
Song Jianguo sneered: "If you can be like your brother and daughter-in-law, if I have an old man who can be counted on, what else do I have to struggle!"
"Do you blame me?" Zhang Yao looked aggrieved, and Song Jianguo sneered: "Didn't you lie to me when you married me, saying that your mother's family treated you the same as your brother." Why did I marry you, don't you have any points in your heart? ”
"If you're not happy, you'll get a divorce!" Song's mother sneered: "Anyway, after the divorce, my son can still find a big girl." If you also find a divorce, you can find a better one. You're getting a divorce, I think your brother can want you?"
What happened in the Huo family, only Zhang Yao himself understood. The longer he stayed at his mother's house, the more ugly Horu's face became. Especially when he deliberately provoked the contradiction between Gao Liman and Ding Meimei, Huo Dagui finally couldn't bear it anymore, and finally asked himself to leave.
After staying at his mother's house for so long, Song Jianguo did not pick him up at the appointed time. Zhang Yao was even more worried and scared, she was kicked out by Huo Dagui here, where could she go?
"Xinyu was admitted to high school this year, and I asked Kou Xi to contact her with a teacher in the city. Go to the teacher's house to make up the class, which can be quite expensive. It's not easy to do business at home now, and Dad is too old to support so many of you. What Huo Dagui said was reasonable, and Zhang Yao really had no reason to stay any longer.
According to Huo Lu, contact Song Jianguo and ask if he wants to do it. The Huo family still looked righteous in front of Song Jianguo, which actually meant that Zhang Yao was about to divorce. But Zhang Yao knew that this was just pretending, even if she was divorced, she might only be married off by Li Cuilian soon.
Instead of going to a family to run in and be angry, it is better to be with Song Jianguo. After all, the two of them also have a daughter, no matter what, as long as they have children, life will not be too bad.
"Can I go and see that family!" After thinking about it, Zhang Yao retreated: "I have to see if that family is as good as you say!"
Seeing that Zhang Yao agreed, a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of Song Mu's mouth.
"When we send off the children, let's go together. Song Jianguo coaxed Zhang Yao with a smile: "This family is rich, give four thousand yuan." The two of us will sell some goods to catch up with the market, and then slowly give birth to a son. ”
"That's right, Zhang Yao is not in a hurry to give birth to a son. Look at the daughter-in-law of the old Tan family, who gave birth to eight daughters and finally gave birth to a boy. Mother Song appeased Zhang Yao, and she was also appeasing Huo Lu.
"People haven't sold a child!" Although the family was bankrupt and had countless foreign debts. But none of the children of the old Tan family were left behind, and every child was sent to school to study, and it is said that every child is a seedling of reading.
"Besides, you don't see how capable the old Tan family's daughter-in-law is. That physique is as thick as the three of you, and he can resist more than 100 catties of buds. You can shake twenty pounds, can it be the same!" Mother Song rolled her eyes: "Don't think about it, spend a good year with your children." ”
Zhang Yao ate food for Chinese New Year's Eve, and the Huo family was the same.
"Huo An won't come back this year, and Kou Xi is like a dead man, I don't know how to come and see!" Li Cuilian muttered without having anything to do: "Last year, we caught up with the beautiful baby and gave birth to a child, so we didn't have the time to have a reunion dinner together." Then Huo An didn't come back this year, so he didn't know how to bring the child back?"
Li Cuilian felt that Kou Xi was slapping herself in the face again: "Let the neighbors see how stumbling it is! Kou Xi is now able to endure and come out again, don't treat us as human beings!"
"When she was confined, you ran to other people's homes to make trouble and let your cousin beat her up. Have you forgotten? Kou Xi is a cautious person, he loves to hold grudges, if he can come, I will count you as bearable!" Huo Dagui took a sip of his home-brewed spirits, and his eyes squinted spicy: "Ah, it's really hard!"
"Didn't she give me a whole deer antler, what else do you want? This thing is the best way to make wine!" Huo Dagui pointed to the wine jar on the desk: "Deer antler velvet, ginseng soaking wine, these days are getting more and more!"
"You're still beautiful!" Li Cuilian was not angry: "She is looking for a tofu shop in the city behind your back, don't you know? You tell me what she wants, what do you give, she is still not satisfied and goes outside!"
"Well, can I do it? I can't afford to ask for so much of her. I'm tired enough to sell noodles this day. Now it's enough to support my family, and I don't want to do much!" Huo Dagui looked contented: "Now it's up to Huo Lu to see what he can do." I'll give him all this noodles. Two daughters-in-law and two children, he can't support them!"
"How old is Horu, you give him so many difficult things. Can he hold it up?" Li Cuilian muttered and complained: "Why don't you call Jianguo and Zhang Yao back and help the family work." ”
"Pull it down! They might as well eat more. Horu shook his head and blurted out.
"You're really good at stumbling people!" Li Cuilian glanced at her son, and then changed the topic: "Alas, you said that Huo An will not come back for the New Year." What is this for? Didn't it be said in previous years that married officers had annual leave? Could it be that he served Kou Xi for confinement and took all the New Year's leave?"
Huo Dagui sneered: "You know what a fart! My eldest son is so capable, maybe the leader sent some task!"
Li Cuilian pursed her lips and said viciously: "Don't die outside, and then give Kou Xi's entire martyr's family or something." This Kou Xi is beautiful, and he can change to a man if he makes money and is famous!"
"It's the New Year, don't talk about the unlucky!" Huo Dagui sat up suddenly, raised his foot and kicked Li Cuilian's hip bone.
"Oops!" Li Cuilian fell down, but unfortunately she was too old to get up.
"Dad, what are you doing!" Huo Lu hurriedly ran over and hugged Li Cuilian to the kang, and reached out to touch Li Cuilian's crotch: "Mom, what's wrong?"
"Oh mom, it's numb and crispy, and it doesn't hurt!" Li Cuilian bared her teeth and grinned: "Old son, you can't break it." After speaking, he scolded Huo Dagui again: "It's not okay to say that your son is not a word, and he is anxious when he says a few things." How old am I, and you're still working with me. I'll let you kill you next time. ”
