Chapter 53: Hand over the arsonist
After collecting the silver hairpin and sorting out the things of Hao Jiali's sister and brother, Chen Feng packed these things in a snakeskin bag and separated them without a trace.
Hao Jiali's hand has been injured these days, and Uncle Gui has instructed her not to use cold water, so Hao Jiali can't go to the stream to wash clothes these days.
Hao Jiaming hasn't learned to wash clothes yet, Cao Juying has no time to take care of Chen Feng's housework, and as soon as Hao Jiali's high fever subsides, Cao Juying will go back to her own house and be busy handing over the family's land and poultry, so Chen Feng's idea and method of sorting out these things will be unaware.
Fortunately, Chen Feng didn't want to alarm anyone, and her silent departure was also the best parting for her two children.
Chen Feng tidied up all this quietly, and when the water on the wood stove boiled, Chen Feng poured hot water into cold water and mixed it into warm water and began to scrub Hao Jiali's changed clothes.
But when Chen Feng's hand was submerged in the soapy water in the basin, it was expected that the chapped part of Chen Feng's fingers would sting as soon as it was wet, and this stinging pain made Chen Feng feel like the frying of hot oil in a pot dripping into cold water came so quickly and loudly.
Chen Feng hurriedly washed his hands with clean water, and then used his nails to rub against each other's clothes to scrub Hao Jiali's clothes, or switched to brushing, so that Chen Feng's hands would not have to be immersed in the water.
Even when Chen Feng used the brush to brush his clothes, the bamboo blocks used to embed the bristles on the back of the brush were also so hard that they rubbed the cracks on Chen Feng's fingers, and half of Hao Jiali's clothes were washed, Chen Feng was so painful that he frowned and gritted his teeth and couldn't bear it, Chen Feng had to stop, staring at the cracked cuts that his outstretched fingers could see with the naked eye, and said helplessly:
"Chen Feng, Chen Feng, what's the use of a waste like you living in this world? You are simply superfluous to live in this world, you see what else you can do? You can't wash any clothes, you should have to say goodbye to this world to a world that suits you, you don't drag down your mother-in-law, brother, and your two underage children. ”
Chen Feng reminded himself that as he spoke, sad tears rolled out from the corners of Chen Feng's eyes, dripping into the basin of washing clothes in front of Chen Feng, and dripping on Hao Jiali's clothes, Chen Feng quickly lifted the corner of his clothes to wipe the tears in his eyes.
Chen Feng didn't dare to continue to be sad and sad, Chen Feng was afraid that Cao Juying would suddenly wake up and interrogate her about the reason for her tears.
Cao Juying is a very sensitive person, if Chen Feng scolds and scolds every day, Cao Juying is accustomed to it, like this Chen Feng is hiding her thoughts behind her back, Cao Juying can easily notice that her behavior is abnormal, Chen Feng quickly wiped away the tears on her face, and then forcibly held back the pain of her chapped fingers and scrubbed Hao Jiali's clothes and soaked them in soapy water for the first time.
When Chen Feng finally washed Hao Jiali's clothes for the first time, and had not rinsed Hao Jiali's clothes with clean water, and had just adjusted the water temperature of the water that Hao Jiali's clothes were rinsed, Chen Feng was startled by a loudspeaker from the front room calling her name, and the wooden scoop that scooped water fell from her hand, and Chen Feng's sitting body almost fell high from the square bench where she usually used her second leg.
Chen Feng hurriedly grabbed the wall of the stove house and stood firmly.
After Chen Feng stood firmly, before he came back to his senses, he immediately heard the horn calling the name of his mother-in-law Cao Juying again.
Chen Feng's clothes were not washed, he stood still, listened carefully again, and after making sure that he and his mother-in-law Cao Juying's name were correct, Chen Feng hurriedly walked to the front room with a square stool, Chen Feng wanted to wake up Cao Juying to get up and go to see what was going on, Chen Feng didn't know who he and his mother-in-law were provoking in the early morning.
The sound of the horn outside the door sounded one after another, Chen Feng approached Cao Juying's bedside, reached out and pushed Cao Juying's arm exposed outside the quilt, and pushed it a few times, but Cao Juying didn't wake up.
Cao Juying was really sleepy, rushed home from the commune hospital in the middle of the night, and was busy with Hao Jiali's affairs for another night.
Chen Feng pushed Cao Juying a few times and didn't wake up, Chen Feng was anxious, and instead lifted Cao Juying's quilt, and shouted a few times with his mouth to Cao Juying's ear: "Mom! Mother! Get up! Hurry up! The production team is here to catch Lili! ”
Chen Feng didn't know if this was the case outside, depending on the fact that the cadres of the production team had any major events in the past, they used loudspeakers to announce them in each village, and Chen Feng was afraid that Chen Zhijie, the deputy captain of the production team, would bring someone to the house to arrest Hao Jiali.
Chen Feng knew that Hao Jiali burned the granary of the production team, according to the adults, they should be brought to justice and imprisoned, Hao Jiali did not need to be imprisoned if she made such a mistake as a minor, but the loss caused to the people of the production team was so great, and Chen Feng was unable to compensate, the production team could not let Hao Jiali go, just let Hao Jiali be closed in the auditorium of the production team for one night, this is too cheap Hao Jiali, at least let Hao Jiali be locked up for ten days and half a month in such a cold day, and the mass cadres of the production team will stop.
In addition, Cao Juying brought Hao Jiali home last night, which means that Hao Jiali didn't have enough time for one night, and these people in the production team were so angry that their lungs were about to explode, just as Chen Feng heard, Chen Zhijie took the lead, and the grass field in Hao Jiali's village was full of shouting people.
Chen Qing also stood in the crowd, Chen Qing looked at the direction of Hao Jiali's door, and he helplessly listened to Chen Zhijie's voice that could penetrate his eardrums and shouted to Hao Jiali's house:
"Cao Juying! Chen Feng! If you know each other, hand over the arsonist in your house! Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude to your daughter when we rush into your house and arrest someone! ”
"You brutes have never been polite to my family Lili, these injuries on my Lili are all thanks to you brutes, you people don't come to cat crying mice fake mercy, out of my house, my village, I Chen Feng can't do anything about you, today you are sent to the door one by one, then see who is unkind to whom." Chen Feng scolded Chen Zhijie at home, Chen Feng had prepared for the worst in her heart, her family was in such a desperate situation, her life was dead, then let these people end, if someone died, these people would let Hao Jiali go.
Chen Feng called Cao Juying a few times, and Cao Juying closed her eyes and said in a daze: "Don't make noise, I'm so sleepy, let me sleep again." Immediately, Cao Juying turned over and didn't react again.
Chen Feng knew that Cao Juying was fifty years old, and when she was still taking medicine, she had just suffered from dizziness and was still taking medicine, and she didn't sleep all night, and she didn't sleep for half an hour.
After waking Cao Juying, Chen Feng walked alone to the wooden shelf where he put the pot, and then took down the kitchen knife at home where a knife was inserted in the middle space of the wooden shelf, and then tore off the corner of the rag and wrapped it, and then inserted the kitchen knife into her pants, and the handle of the knife was exposed at the end of the pants and covered it with the hem of her clothes, and then moved to the door with a square stool.
When he arrived at the door, Chen Feng took a big breath and hesitated for a moment before raising his hand to pull out the deadbolt.
As soon as Chen Feng pulled out the door bolt, he grabbed a door panel with both hands and pulled it in the direction of the frame on both sides of the door, the door opened, Chen Feng immediately saw the people of the production team standing in the black pressure on the field in the village, Chen Feng quickly closed the door and tied the door bolt, and then turned his head and shouted to Cao Juying, who had not woken up in the inner room: "Mom! Mother! You get up quickly, you carry Lili away, you take Lili to hide, there are a lot of people outside. ”
Cao Juying was still asleep, and Hao Jiaming was woken up.
Hao Jiaming heard the horn outside the house and the shouts of his mother, Hao Jiaming got up and jumped out of bed quickly with a broken hand, rushed to his mother's side in a few steps and asked in a panic: "Mom!" What's wrong! What's wrong! ”
Chen Feng pulled open a little under the two deadbolts behind the door to reveal the crack in the door, Hao Jiaming also saw a lot of people standing on the threshing field in the village from the crack in the door, Hao Jiaming was afraid, Hao Jiaming had never seen this formation, Hao Jiaming put the cloth strip held in his right hand to his neck, and the broken left hand was drilled into the cloth strip and hung up, Hao Jiaming said to Chen Feng: "Mom! You wait, don't open the door, I'm going to wake up grandma and go out through the back door, I'll get grandpa. ”
Hao Jiaming said and ran to the back room to call Cao Juying.
Hao Jiaming's call Cao Juying is still the same as when Chen Feng called him, hearing Hao Jiaming's voice, Cao Juying answered twice in her mouth, and her body still couldn't get out of bed.
Hao Jiaming was in a hurry, picked up the cold boiled water that Hao Jiali hadn't drunk last night on the table at home and took a sip in his mouth, and then Hao Jiaming climbed onto the bed and approached Cao Juying's face, Hao Jiaming sprayed the water in his mouth on Cao Juying's sleeping face like water, Cao Juying immediately shivered and woke up, after waking up, Cao Juying immediately leaned over, but her eyelids drooped, looking sleepy-eyed, Cao Juying scraped off the water that was sprayed all over her face by Hao Jiaming with the palms of both hands, and asked Hao Jiaming in a daze: "Mingming! Why is it raining? Where have we been? Haven't arrived home yet? ”
Cao Juying thought that she was still walking on the road of the production team in the middle of the night with Hao Jiali on her back from the auditorium of the production team.
Hao Jiaming lifted the quilt that Cao Juying was covered with part, and then lowered his body to look for Cao Juying's shoes in front of the bed, and after finding it, Hao Jiaming grabbed Cao Juying's leg with his right hand and dragged it to the edge of the bed, Hao Jiaming said anxiously while dragging: "Grandma!" Hurry up, hurry up! ”
Cao Juying lazily yawned and asked Hao Jiaming: "Obviously! What's wrong with you? You urged grandma so hard, what's the matter? Grandma didn't close her eyes last night, and now grandma wants to sleep, what's the matter with grandma waking up? ”
