In the last few days, some small birds, some famous and some unknown, have been flying in her yard at every turn, and they are chirping each other, as if there is something important to tell their owners, and they are chattering non-stop.
Some birds are very bold, they will fall directly to the ground very close to their mother's spring flowers, and look for something to eat lightly, and they don't seem to be afraid of people who are close at hand.
Chunhua saw the bird in front of her, walking around gently, its beak kept pulling among the dirt and debris, and it was around her, and she also followed the bird's footsteps, intoxicated, and drooled happily.
One day, her mother Chunhua saw a bird surrounding her for a long time, but suddenly flew away, and she pounced desperately. This flutter, not only knocked the mouth, blood flowed, but also knocked out two front front teeth, unfortunately, she did not catch the bird, even the figure of the bird could not be seen, she stretched out her arms in disappointment, and said lightly:
"Don't go, don't go, child, Mom is here to save you! What's wrong with you, why did you see Mom still flying?"
Mother Chunhua's upper and lower lips were swollen, and they rose up and down respectively, and the blood on her mouth flowed down her chin and on her clothes, and there were several blood stains, which looked very miserable!
However, the mother didn't seem to feel the pain, she didn't seem to notice the blood that kept flowing, and even as if she hadn't knocked down, she still called out vigorously, and stretched her arms vigorously.
That Liu Ma saw Chunhua fall to the ground, his eyes were like two round balls, he walked over unhurriedly, and while helping him up, he scolded angrily: "What a person, is it a child who can't stand on his feet or is already old and confused, he can fall on the flat ground, I have never seen such a stupid and useless woman as you!"
Mother Chunhua didn't even look at this man, her eyes were still staring at the vast sky, looking for the bird that had flown away and didn't know where it had flown to, with a look of loss and helplessness on her face.
And that Liu Ma's nose is not a nose, his face is not a face, he went towards the main house, and scolded in his mouth: "It's really fucking annoying, like a fool all day long, I don't do anything serious, and I still learn how to catch birds, and I'm not afraid that my mother will fall to death......"
Liu Ma picked up the dry tobacco pot, leaned against the quilt, and then raised the curling green smoke above his head.
Since Liu Ma learned that the news of Hongxing's pregnancy has spread all over the surrounding towns and villages; since he learned that Li Hanzi knew that he was humiliated, he had a big quarrel and shed tears, and now he has gradually become a waste person by drinking all day to kill his sorrows; since that Hongxing has become the object of Qianfu's fingers, and has become the "**" in the mouths of everyone, he has almost always been at home except for working in the field.
However, on the night of his mother's Chunhua's fall, Liu Ma went out for a trip, but soon came back.
When Liu Ma went out of the house, it was already night, and the whole Qiao Xiaojing was wrapped in a thin black veil, went out of the house, walked around the village, and did not meet anyone, the whole village was extremely quiet, and a few dog barks could be heard on weekdays, but there was no sound at all this night.
Perhaps because of the busy farming season, the peasants were busy working during the day, and they were as tired as dogs, and the dogs must have been so tired that they didn't even have the strength to bark twice.
This Liu Ma turned around and walked back, walking about twenty or thirty steps away, suddenly he seemed to think of something unusual, suddenly stopped, thought for a while, and then changed direction, and walked towards the dirt road at the west end of the village, the faster he walked, the more eager he walked, and he kept panting.
The road at his feet was probably the one he walked the most, except for the way home, and he often walked at night, and he could touch a nest and a stone with his eyes closed.
This Liu Ma walked and saw a figure in front of him, and he slowed down vigilantly.
Although there was moonlight, because of the distance, Liu Ma couldn't be sure who the black shadow in front of him was.
Perhaps, the dark shadow also noticed that someone was coming, and slowed down.
The two sides paused for a few seconds, this Liu Ma slowly moved forward, stopped again, a little apprehensive, the person in front also moved his steps, and then pretended to come over generously.
Just when the two were about to meet, Liu Ma recognized the person on the other side, this person was none other than the best person in Qiaojia Village--- Qiao Baocai, the patriarch of the Qiao clan and the rich man, he was stunned for a moment, and then wanted to come forward to say hello, what puzzled Liu Ma was that this Qiao Baocai locked his nose and crooked his mouth, deliberately changed his appearance, pretended not to see Liu Ma, and walked over quickly.
This Liu Ma was like a mirror in his heart, he knew that Qiao Baocai recognized him.
Of course, Qiao Baocai also knew very well in his heart that it was impossible for Liu Ma not to recognize him.
At this moment, only the two of them were on the road, but the two men who were both having an affair with Li Hanzi's daughter-in-law Hongxing chose to be strangers, or in order to avoid embarrassment, they finally did not pierce the paper in front of them, pretending that the moon was blindfolded by a black cloth.
However, both of them were not at peace in their hearts, Qiao Baocai walked straight forward, Liu Ma stood in place and watched Qiao Baocai's vague back gradually melt into the darkness of the night, sighed in disappointment, followed him into the village, and went straight home.
Since then, Qiao Baocai and Liu Ma have pretended to cover up when they meet, especially for things related to red apricots, they can avoid them, never take the initiative to mention them, and rarely participate in various rumors in the village, but this is a matter of face after all, and the poor thing is that the belly is getting bigger and bigger, life is becoming more and more inconvenient, lonely and helpless, and the belly is full of bitter water.
One day, suddenly the sky changed dramatically, and it began to rain, which lasted for several days, and all the ditches and ditches were filled with rainwater, and the fields were even more serious, and many low-lying areas turned into a vast ocean.
Although the weather cleared later, because the rain lasted too long, the land was completely flooded, and many people were idle, and the more diligent people took this opportunity to tidy up their homes, but most of them could not stay at home, and went out of the house to find a shaded place in the village to sit down, chatting and gossiping, so as to pass the time.
This is especially true for women, who like to do needlework, talk a little bit of idle work, and spend their leisure time unhurriedly.
Of course, there are also long-tongued poisonous women, they are not just gossip, right and wrong, they often talk and talk, and put their heads together, what is long and short, all kinds of secret things are said by them, and they say it very vividly, very specifically, very realistically, it seems to be like they have seen it with their own eyes and experienced it personally.
These things are like air, and they will soon spread everywhere, even the dark, hairy, musty-smelling horns that can't even reach the sun.
These rumors are like a plague, spreading fast and extremely lethal, perhaps many people have encountered them, and some people have even suffered from them, and the final result is either to make the east chicken fly and the dog jump, or to make the west chicken restless.
It is true that something as sensitive and creative as "red apricots out of the wall" can escape their mouths?
Just the father of the child in the red apricot's belly, they expressed their opinions, and they made up more than a dozen people, almost half of the adult men in Qiaojia Village were suspected, and the strange thing is that these obviously nonsense remarks came out of their mouths, but at first glance they sounded very reasonable, and after careful consideration, they couldn't find much fault.
That's how powerful women are with long tongues, you may hate them, but you should never try to provoke them!
Whenever they get together, their mouths seem to be possessed with magic, and it is likely that a small thing, through their mouths, will make a person inadvertently ruined, and even fall into the abyss of no return.
Of course, who is the real father of the child in Hongxing's belly, these long-tongued poisonous women don't know, they can only rely on their rich imagination to put seemingly reasonable rumors as evidence on the heads of the targets in their hearts. This includes the biggest character in Qiaojia Village--- the patriarch of the Qiao clan and the rich man Qiao Baocai.
Soon this news reached the ears of Wang Hammer, the rich man of Hedong Village, who had previously married Qiao Baocai because of the marriage of his stupid son, and later because Qiao Baocai's son Qiao Shuangxi set fire to most of Hedong Village, the relationship between the two families fell below the freezing point, and since then it has been tied to a dead knot, and the two sides do not give in to each other, and they are eager to kill each other.
When this news came, for Wang Hammer, it could be said that God had given him a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to take revenge on Qiao Baocai, how could he give up so easily?
Since getting the news, Wang Hammer has been like a different person, excited all day long, full of energy, more energetic and energetic than young people, no matter how heavy the rain is, he always runs before and after, making fine preparations for revenge on Qiao Baocai.
The king hammer finally waited for the rain to stop, and he couldn't wait for the mud on the road to dry up, so he rode a tall horse and came to Qiaojia Village with his things.
There were a lot of idlers gathered in the village, and they all found that Wang Langtou's visit to Qiaojia Village this time was different from the previous times, one was to come alone, without bringing a family member, the second was that he did not bring any murder weapons, and there was no fierce spirit, and the third was that he smiled when he saw everyone, without the previous anger, it was more like he came to visit relatives.
This scene happened to be touched by Liu Ma, who has never gone out much, and I don't know why, this Wang Hammer actually invited Liu Ma to go to Qiao Baocai's house together, and claimed to have come to congratulate him.
Although Liu Ma politely refused a few times, he finally couldn't be stubborn, and went to Qiao Baocai's house with this Wang hammer.
At this time, Qiao Baocai's house was full of people, and when he saw Wang Hammer coming, Qiao Baocai was stunned for a moment, and then came forward with a smile, clasped his fists with both hands and said: "I don't know which wind blew you here, what a rare guest!"
The guest and the host sat down, and the Wang hammer had been holding a big burden, Qiao Baocai smiled and said: "Today is really a good day, we are discussing the marriage of my son Qiao Shuangxi, and the magpie has sent the rich man Wang, great, let's have a good time." ”
"I have come to congratulate you on purpose!" The king opened the bag as he spoke, and everyone saw that there were two pieces of flower cloth, a baby tiger head hat, a pair of tiger head shoes, and a small cloth bag, which was bulging.
Just when everyone was puzzled, the king hammer had already opened the small cloth bag, and there were more than a dozen easter eggs in front of him.
Everyone looked at each other, all surprised, and they didn't know what it meant.
