In his thoughts, I heard him use a questioning tone: "Why haven't you come back for so long?" ”

Glancing at him, "Are you your sister going out to pick up firewood, and you will go back?" Your brother-in-law's house is ten miles away, and your mother-in-law is in charge of the family, so it's not as easy as you think. ”

He was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at me, "Is it their family bullying you?" ”

Don't just bully, your sister was slapped on the day she got married! But I won't complain to my brother about this, so I waved my hand and said, "No, your sister is clever." ”

"However, I heard Brother Niu say that the man is a fool."

I tapped his head, "What's that 'man'?" No big, no small, he's your brother-in-law. And don't hearsay those who have or don't, your brother-in-law is not a fool, just a child like you. ”

Xiaotong's eyes showed doubts, and when he was about to open his mouth, the door behind me was pushed open, and A-Niang came in with a bowl of medicine.

Seeing that we didn't make any more trouble, A-Niang's sadness finally disappeared, and she told me: "Wait for the medicine to warm up and feed your brother." I got up and went over to take the medicine, dissipated the heat with a spoon, scooped up a spoonful and handed it to Xiaotong's mouth.

He raised his eyes to look at me, and said with an aggrieved look: "You are not at home, and no one cares if I am sick." ”

After a slight pause, he glanced at him, and refuted: "How is it possible?" When you are sick, which time is Daddy and Auntie not the most nervous? He indignantly accused: "They knew that I was given medicine, and it was terrible!" The Lang Zhong who watched it is a Mongolian doctor at all, and he says the same thing every time, what is it to drink medicine on time and recuperate, have I been recuperating for fifteen years? But they still believed the words of the Mongolian Langzhong, and forced me to drink that pile of medicine. ”

I couldn't criticize him anymore, because he was not wrong. His illness in our time is that he has been weak since he was a child, and with allergic nose, sometimes a blow of the wind can cause a serious illness. But generally when a child grows up to about ten years old, he will gradually heal with the enhancement of his physique, but he is still fifteen years old, but he has been dragging it all along. I have to say that in fact, the prescription prescribed by Na Lang Zhong is useless at all.

I once told him in private to drink as little medicine as possible and exercise more when he was in good health. But with Daddy and Auntie at home, this matter can't be done at all, even if Xiaotong just walks around a little, he can be stopped, let alone exercise.

Another reason is that nutrition can't keep up, look at this child's skinny bones.

After drinking the medicine, Xiaotong didn't have the appetite to eat anything else, and he fell asleep not long after lying down. I folded the quilt for him and went out with the bowl, but I didn't see Ah Ping in the hall, and I didn't see Ah Niang when I found the stove room.

There were two dishes on the stove, a bowl of lazy boiled cabbage, and half a bowl of fish, the fish was only as long as a finger, and the head of the fish was pinched off.

I put down the medicine bowl and walked outside, and saw A-Niang wearing a straw hat and threshing wheat on the field, but what about A-Ping? I looked left and right and saw no trace of him, I was anxious in my heart, and walked over quickly and asked, "A-Niang, where is A-Ping?" ”

Ah Niang stopped what she was doing and asked me in turn, "Isn't he sitting in the house?" ”

My heart sank, and my face changed slightly: "He's not at home." "It's a total of one room, divided into a stove room and two bedrooms, I came out of the same room since I was a child, passed through the hall and entered the stove room, Ah Ping is impossible to enter Ah Niang's bedroom casually.

But A-Niang said unconcernedly: "Then it may be where to go." ”

felt that it was wrong, and grabbed A-Niang's arm, "A-Niang, you tell me the truth, did you say anything to A-Ping?" Sure enough, seeing her eyes flickering, she turned her head and said, "No, I asked...... The situation at home. ”

Angry, according to what I know about her in the past five years, it is definitely impossible to just ask Ah Ping about the situation at home. She must not have given up yet, so she took advantage of the time when I accompanied Xiaotong to ask Na Ping for silver.

What an ugly drama of human selfishness and greed!
