Shen Anyi was taken aback, and subconsciously stopped: "What's wrong with Ningguang?" ”

"Hey, don't stop!" Zhao Jianguo hurriedly reminded, "What if they hear Xiaoqin and come up to see it?" You also know that they don't like your dealings with Ning Guang, and you will definitely be angry if you know that I told you this. ”

"They're too much!" Shen Anyi continued to press the piano keys while saying angrily, "Eat what my mother gave them, drink what my mother gave them, and criticize me...... My mother said that I would make friends with Ningguang casually! ”

Zhao Jianguoxin said that Aunt Xiaoxia is just where you can make friends with Ning Guang, she is happy to see you stand with Ning Guang, and compare Ning Yue's daughter everywhere - this intention Chaoyang Village, many children know it in their hearts, that is, Shen Anyi is stupid and only her mother is a warm-hearted person, and she feels as sorry for Ning Guang's situation as she is.

But he couldn't tell this innocent cousin, only said: "Don't mention me if you sue your aunt, otherwise my uncle will definitely find my mother, and then I will be miserable." ”

Shen Anyi nodded: "Don't worry, when you say this to me, you are on my side, and I will definitely not harm you." ”

She asked Ning Guang about the situation with a calm face, and Zhao Jianguo said truthfully, emphasizing that he told Ning Guang all the accumulated firewood: "I don't have any money, otherwise I will definitely buy her some food and put it there." Now she is hiding there alone, she can light the fire when it's cold, but she can't help it when she's hungry...... Fortunately, she used to be hungry at home, and it is estimated that it is okay to be hungry all night. ”

When he said this, he actually just instinctively wanted to sell it in front of Shen Anyi, who knew that Shen Anyi was anxious when he heard it, saying that on such a cold day, how could Ning Guang be outside alone?

She first wanted Zhao Jianguo to help her sneak out quietly to accompany Ning Guang, but Zhao Jianguo refused without any room for turn: "Everyone knows that you are practicing the piano at this time, if the sound of the piano suddenly stops, you will definitely come up to watch." And if you want to go down, you have to go out from the door of your uncle's room, and they watch TV and the door is not closed, how can they sneak out? And Aunt Xiaoxia knows about this matter, she has to pick my skin! ”

His aunt should not raise this daughter too carefully, in the opinion of the people in the village at this time, it has reached the point where it is unbelievable and regarded as a treasure, and asked Shen Anyi to sneak away to spend the night in the haystack outside the village on a winter night?

Zhao Jianguo doesn't have to think about it, Zhao Xia wants to know about this, it's strange if she doesn't go crazy!

So Shen Anyi could only anxiously continue to play the piano while retreating to him and asking: "Then you go and take Ning Guang over?" I'll give you all the chocolate! ”

Although the temptation of chocolate is great, Zhao Jianguo still wiped his saliva and shook his head: "No, Uncle Ningguang will definitely know when he comes over, and they won't do anything to you when the time comes, but they will definitely clean me up." Sister An Yi, I am kind enough to help you, you can't hurt me like this! ”

"Then is it just to watch Ning Guang spend the night cold and hungry outside?!" Shen Anyi was distraught and knocked out a series of fierce notes, and suddenly said, "In that case, you can help me send her something to eat!" ”

Zhao Jianguo was still a little embarrassed, saying that if Zhao Fuliang and them found out, he was afraid that he would not be allowed to come to the door in the future.

After all, Shen Anyi was raised by being held, and she usually looks cute, but she is really unhappy but she is not easy to talk to, so she said angrily at the moment: "This is not summer!" How do you find out how to stuff a few handfuls of cookies and candy with such thick clothes on your body? I didn't know that every time you came up, you would quietly grab something and hide it?! ”

“…… I didn't hide it. Zhao Jianguo weakly explained that he really hadn't stolen Shen Anyi's things, not that he had good morals or thin skin, but because he had learned from Zhao Liguo for the first time, they hid a bun of beef jerky, but after going down, he was forced to hand it over by Zhao Liguo and Zhao Qin.

The logic of the brother and sister is that Shen Anyi's things were given by Zhao Xia, and Zhao Xia is their aunt, just Zhao Jianguo's cousin, so everything they get from Shen Anyi must be examined by their nephews and nieces, and only those who don't want it can be given to Zhao Jianguo.

As for Zhao Jianguo's defense that he took it himself, and Zhao Liguo and Zhao Qin also took it themselves, they were brutally reprimanded by Zhao Qin: "Do you want to come over in the future?" If you don't want to come here, get out! ”

Zhao Liguo also hinted to him that Zhao Jianguo has been coming to eat a lot during this time, which is already very worthy of his identity as Zhao Xiatang's nephew, and as for competing with his nephews and nieces, he just thinks too much.

Zhao Jianguo can't get this brother and sister, so he can only admit it, and from then on, he will no longer take Shen Anyi's things...... After all, you can't get it yourself, so why bother with it?

Now I explained to Shen Anyi secretly for a while, and seeing that this cousin had a calm face, she finally had to compromise and asked, "Then I'll go over now?" ”

Seeing that he agreed, Shen Anyi was a little embarrassed, feeling that it was a bit of a toss to let this cousin go outside the village so late. So he asked Zhao Jianguo to sit in front of the piano and press the keys in a mess, so as not to come up and ask why he didn't practice, he got up and collected a lot of snacks, divided them into two piles, one large and one small, and then sat back in front of the piano, and explained to him while playing: "The big one is for Ningguang, and the small one is for you...... You didn't have to be hungry for dinner anyway. ”

Zhao Jianguo was afraid of offending Zhao Fuliang and his family before, but he was overjoyed when he saw the reward, nodded again and again, and stuffed things into his clothes one by one, because he was afraid that he would be blocked by Zhao Liguo's brothers and sisters when he went down, he took the stairs to the halfway point, specially selected the window of the stairwell to get out, and slipped out of the courtyard of Zhao Fuliang's house in the dark.

However, the cold wind blew all the way to the haystack outside the village, and he screamed several times in a suppressed voice, but Ning Guang did not answer.

At first, he thought that Ning Guang was scared, and explained in a low voice, saying that he had come to bring her food, but Siye was still silent, and Zhao Jianguo thought that Ning Guang might not dare to stay up all night.

In order to explain to Shen Anyi, he dutifully searched the straw stacks with all the exceptions, and only found some thin ice formed by stagnant water in the direction near the dock, it is estimated that Ning Guang originally wanted to come over for the night, but he stood here with his freshly washed clothes for a while, and he didn't have the courage to go back to meet the storm.

Zhao Jianguo was a little disappointed in his heart, because he didn't know that he didn't give Ning Guang food, and his cousin still counted the rewards he gave him?

He walked back dejectedly, and when he wanted to sneak into Zhao Fuliang's house again to report to Shen Anyi, he found that the courtyard door of Zhao Fuliang's house had been locked.

At this time, although the countryside has not reached the point where the road is not picked up and the house is not closed at night, but the fault is that the owner will sleep, and he will not lock the door.

Zhao Jianguo listened for a while, and found that there was a faint sound of the piano coming from upstairs, Shen Anyi's piano practice was not over, Zhao Fuliang and his wife would not fall asleep first, and eighty percent of Zhao Liguo's brothers and sisters found that they had sneaked out, and they probably went back, so they deliberately ran out to lock the door.

This kind of trickery is actually not once or twice, although Zhao Jianguo also felt embarrassed or aggrieved before, he actually didn't take it to heart.

After all, the default relationship in the countryside at this time should be based on the intimacy of blood, and his mother and Zhao Xia are separated by a layer, and it is natural that they are not as good as Zhao Liguo's brothers and sisters everywhere.

Isn't it also said that the old saying is inseparable?

It can be seen that there is a difference between intimacy and alienation.

But this time, I don't know why, Zhao Jianguo suddenly thought, what do people Ning Guang and his cousin Shen Anyi have, they are not related, they are not relatives, and they really count it, Ning Guang and Ning Yue'e did not ridicule Zhao Xia back then...... Ningguang can let Shen Anyi be treated as a sister, why should he, the cousin in the next room, look at Zhao Liguo and Zhao Qin's face everywhere?

The thin boy stood outside the iron fence gate that was rare in the countryside for a moment, and finally quietly left after several struggles on his immature face in the night.

When Zhao Jianguo returned to his house in the dark, before he entered the door, he heard the noisy movement outside the courtyard, and the ping-pong whimpered, and his face subconsciously stiffened.

"What are you crying about, bad luck!" He stopped outside the door for a moment, and there was a crackling noise inside, as if the cabinet and the things on the cabinet were knocked down, followed by a man drunken scolding, saying that this is almost the New Year, and the funeral at night is clearly trying to spoil the family's luck in the coming year, "A woman like you should be dragged to the sinking pond before she is put aside!" It's a new society now, and it's not going to be fun. ”

He burped as he spoke, "Earl—"

This is Zhao Jianguo's uncle Zhao Xueming, he is a good person in the village, quite honest, the only problem is that he likes to drink, and he loves to beat people when he is drunk.

Because he is a good person and honest, he doesn't dare to beat people outside, so he can only beat his wife, that is, Zhao Jianguo's Mu Yan Lan Xiaohua.

Lan Xiaohua was married from another village, and she has five older brothers, and she is the youngest daughter. Although the beautiful head family is not worth much in these years, and the status is even lower when Lan Xiaohua is a beautiful head, but after all, scarcity is expensive, so when the matchmaker matched her with Zhao Xueming, the Lan family still specially visited Zhao Xueming's nature, and after receiving unanimous praise from all over the village, he was relieved to marry his daughter.

Who knew that it was okay in the early years, Zhao Xueming's family owed debts to build a tiled house for their marriage, and the young couple repaid the money diligently, even if the wine in the village commissary was cheap, they were reluctant to drink a drop, so this defect has not been exposed.

Later, the Zhao family had a Zhao Xia, who didn't like to bring his own brothers, but was more affectionate to his cousins who had no grievances, and Zhao Xueming quickly repaid his debts, and he still had a small amount of savings in his hand, which could satisfy his innocuous hobbies, and Lan Xiaohua's nightmare began - but to say that Zhao Xueming is all to blame for this, it may not be.

Because Lan Xiaohua has five brothers after all, she cried and cried back to her parents' house after being beaten for the first time, and the five brothers and their older nephews called a group of brothers of the Lan family to carry nails, rakes and hoes, and ran to Chaoyang Village to ask for the guilt, and the frightened Zhao Xueming almost knelt down on the spot, and swore tremblingly that he would never dare to bully Lan Xiaohua again in the future.

However, Lan Xiaohua herself was not angry, and after seeing this situation, she relented, and instead complained that her brothers and nephews were too pressing, and deliberately ruined their relationship between husband and wife: "I just came back to complain to you, why did you scare him like this?" ”

He also said that now the people of the entire Chaoyang Village have seen the scene of Zhao Xueming kneeling down to apologize, what if they laugh at Zhao Jianguo in the future?

These words chilled the hearts of her brothers and nephews, and also made her completely offend the five sisters-in-law, and then Zhao Xueming's old illness relapsed, and then she added fists and feet to her, she cried and went back to complain, the five brothers and nephews couldn't bear it, and the five sisters-in-law all stood up to repeat the old words, so that their husbands and sons don't do thankless things again: "My sister-in-law said it, she just came back to complain, let's listen, if you really go to Chaoyang Village to theorize, it is to ruin their relationship between husband and wife, and even the founding of the country will be laughed at, How dare we do such a big sin? ”

Lan Xiaohua cried for a long time, and finally could only return in a huff.

And Zhao Xueming was very frightened when he saw his wife go back to her parents' house, thinking that he was going to repeat the scene of the year, who knew that the Lan family didn't care about her, and he was very happy, and he completely let go of himself from then on, and he could fight as much as he wanted - anyway, as long as he didn't make a big deal, don't care how hysterical this wife cried that day, didn't she get up the next day to cook and serve the grandfather and son?

This kind of thing is not uncommon in Chaoyang Village at this time, and the villagers don't think it's anything remarkable, just like they did with Ningguang, they remembered to talk a few words in a mocking tone, and met a few jokes, "The injury on your face today is a fall?" How did it happen to fall into the seal of Wuzhi Mountain", more often than not, they are concentrating on their own lives.

Zhao Jianguo felt uncomfortable.

In fact, he can't say why he doesn't like Abel beating his wife, because in his cognition, it seems natural for a husband to beat his wife. It's just that every time I see Mu Yan wiping her tears and shouting that she can't live, she feels very uncomfortable. So he also persuaded Zhao Xueming, and then he was reprimanded by Zhao Xueming like thunder, saying that he had no conscience, and he provided him with food, clothing, and drink, and he didn't want to repay himself, but he even had to take care of beating his wife, he was simply a white-eyed wolf!

Zhao Xueming never let him get close to Lan Xiaohua from now on, in his words: "It must be that you taught you badly while I was away, she just wants you to be filial to her in the future, not to be filial to me!" ”

This is a very rebellious thing in Zhao Xueming's opinion, after all, Zhao Jianguo's surname is Zhao, this is the kind of his Zhao family, how can he only be Zhao someone's leader, not a woman surnamed Lan who feels sorry for him at a young age.

At the beginning, Zhao Jianguo transferred from Li Xiao back to the village school, in addition to his stubborn personality because he couldn't keep up with his studies, in fact, it was also because Zhao Xueming didn't like him to speak for Lan Xiaohua, but since Zhao Jianguo showed his maintenance of Mu Yan, Zhao Xueming basically wouldn't do anything to Lan Xiaohua in front of his son.

He studied in Li Elementary School, went out early and returned late, and the time to meet his parents was short, and Zhao Xueming had enough time to take care of Lan Xiaohua.

Now it's different when he comes back to the village elementary school, even if Zhao Xueming moves his hand during class, if he hears the news, he can skip school and go home to stop it.

It's just that Zhao Jianguo didn't expect that Abel was already addicted to drinking and beating people, and he only stayed at Zhao Fuliang's house for a few hours, and it became like this here.

With a heavy heart, he skimmed off the dirt under his shoes at the door, and deliberately made a loud voice and walked in: "Abo, Mu Yan, I'm back!" I'm hungry, do I have anything to eat? ”
