Chapter 339: Charity (2-in-1)
At that time, she was very aggrieved, and when she went home, she closed the door and quietly hid in bed and cried, she was reluctant to eat, and she took it to her to eat, but she didn't say a word of thanks, and she told people everywhere that she was an old pick, and others naturally believed it, and even the girl who usually played with her best just glanced at her diagonally with everyone, and then nodded with her.
The more I thought about it, the more angry I became, I cried and didn't eat dinner, and I hiccuped in my room wrapped in a quilt.
But Grandma Liu pushed the door in and smiled very unkindly when she saw her like that.
She immediately cried even harder. While hiccuping and crying, while muttering indistinctly, Grandma Liu came over and sat on the edge of her bed, she turned her back awkwardly, not wanting to talk to her.
was hugged by Grandma Liu, coaxed and coaxed, and then vaguely said the matter from beginning to end, and the more she talked, the more she felt that she was right, so she cried even more.
may be talking about her early humiliation, Liu's mother was a little uncomfortable, reached out to grab the broken hair in her ear, and looked down at Liu Ying.
found that Liu Ying, who was crying a lot just now, was already looking at her with red eyes and a face, and then looked at her with curious eyes.
Mother Liu could only bite the bullet and go down, "At that time, age happened to be the most sensitive time, and when I was in school, I asked her to turn over the flower rope for you after class, and I didn't want to turn over such a trivial matter as a temper, let alone this." So when she saw Grandma Liu still laughing after speaking, she was angry.
even doubted whether it was his own mother for a while.
Liu Ying was attracted by Liu's mother's self-teasing and joking tone, and gradually ignored the lower and lower shouts outside the door.
At that time, Grandma Liu saw that she was about to get angry again, and hurriedly said, how can they do this!
Just this sentence resonated with her, yes, how can they be like this! She was quite resentful. I was angry and told who I was giving to and who I was drinking, and only after I finished saying that I reacted violently, Grandma Liu was still sitting on the edge of her bed.
At that time, the food was expensive, although their family was not lacking, but Liu's mother instinctively felt that Grandma Liu would be angry.
"Then is my grandma angry?" In Liu Ying's impression, her grandmother is just a squinting and soft-spoken little old lady, and she never knew that Grandma Liu would also be angry.
"Not angry." How could Grandma Liu not know, she actually knew that Liu's mother often took things out to share with others to eat, in those days, food was expensive, and everything that was brought into the house had to be counted again, and there were few things every day, and there were not two pieces of less, plus from time to time in the village someone said that her daughter was generous, and Grandma Liu was not stupid, she just pretended that she didn't see it.
It's just that "your grandma always thought I was just stupid and generous, and I didn't know that I didn't eat it myself and saved it for others to eat." Later, when she was older, Grandma Liu also discussed this issue with her once, saying that she was stupid at the time, and she always knew that her girl was not spiritual, but she didn't expect it to be so stupid.
But she didn't say it at the time, because she cried too hard at the time, so that Grandma Liu only saw the problem that needed to be solved in front of her.
That is to break back her daughter's crooked three views, in fact, it is not crooked, but she has not experienced anything, and she is a little stupid and naΓ―ve to be raised, which is what Grandma Liu said later.
But at that time, Grandma Liu only told her a story. "A story of elevating Mien to fighting Mi in a famine year."
They did not rely on the mountains or the sea, but only on the little production in the fields, and when the natural disasters occurred in three years, they all starved.
"I didn't say that I ate Guanyin soil or anything, but I didn't have food, and I drank rotten vegetable leaf soup every day." It's the cabbage grown in the field that you don't want to pick up, and at that time, this thing was scarce, and you had to know someone to let you pick it up in the field.
And it's this rotten vegetable leaf, and I have to walk 80 miles to pick it up.
After listening to this, Liu Ying silently had a question in her heart, eighty miles away, can eating these vegetable leaves replenish the energy consumed by walking eighty miles?
Mother Liu: Actually, she thought about it at the time, but she didn't know the word energy, she just thought that if she walked 80 miles hungry, wouldn't she die?
But this is still good, and when there are no rotten leaves in the field, they just can't walk if they want to.
At that time, there was a family in the village, which could not be said to be a rich family, and at that time the grain was a large collective, and it was fair and centimeter-divided, which could only be said to be much better than other families, because his eldest son was working in a food factory in the city at that time, he was a worker, and he had food stamps to supply grain, and he was a food factory, so he could often bring something back.
And the most important thing is that they have a small family, a total of four people, except for the father and mother, there is only one sister left, which is not small now, but at that time, when the family had at least four or five children, this population was very simple, and the old lady of that family was also kind-hearted.
At that time, everyone was going to starve to death, and they didn't care about any humility or immodesty, but at the beginning, the neighbors around received food, and they thanked them to kowtow, and the old lady was frightened and ran away.
It's just that later, slowly sent to normal, these people around them were raised to their appetites, and the better people were still grateful to Dade, but the tone was not so sincere, and the emotions were not so excited, except for the old lady, everyone else could see the false perfunctory in each other's eyes, and some people who were not particular even took the food in their hands and asked, why is it so much today, our family has a large population, can we give more next time.
The first time this kind of request was made, although the old lady was embarrassed, but still agreed, the result of the family was originally the hob meat on the board, shameless and skinless, see that the first time is coming, every day in the future, his family is indeed many, no family, a large family of twenty people, most of the children, every day when the old lady goes, a group of children will be released to hug the old lady's legs and cry, crying hungry.
The old lady is soft-hearted, and can only send it again and again, but they are all neighbors, who doesn't know who, who doesn't know, look at the size of the cloth bag that the old lady took out of that house and the earth-shattering cry.
At first, it was nothing, and slowly, everyone began to cry poorly, but at that time, the food in the old lady's hand was almost bottoming out, so she could only pretend not to hear.
It was sent until her eldest son came back from the food factory.
The food factory went out of business, and the old lady almost collapsed when she heard the news. There is no one in their family, and everyone else can find a relationship to arrange for other factories, only his son, who can only go home to farm.
Without the supply of food and small subsidies from time to time, the old lady's food began to be stretched thin, and she wanted to start drinking thin like ordinary people.
There is nothing to eat at home, and the old lady will definitely not be able to go out to deliver food, but every day, this is suddenly not delivered, no matter what the reason, anyway, one of the people around said good things about the old lady, especially the hob meat, and rolled her eyes directly at the old lady.
But a few days later, the daughter-in-law gave birth to two boys in one go, and the family's food was cut off.
But the old lady was used to spreading her hands in front of her, and she divided all the food, and her family of four was hungry and sallow, and she gave something to her, so she could only say that she had no food, so you can borrow it from someone else!
As soon as this sentence came out, the face of the person opposite changed instantly, and he began to scold in the yard and kept scolding home.
The old lady who scolded turned pale and burst into tears.
The old lady thought that she would be scolded and passed, but who knows, that night, the family of twenty didn't know if they were hungry and crazy, so they broke in directly with their things.
When she saw something, she turned it over, and when she found something to eat, she moved it, the old lady and the old man were busy stopping, and the old lady jumped and scolded over and over again, crying and calling for help, but no matter how bright she shouted, no one around answered her words and helped her.
And the youngest daughter of the family saw that her family's grain was moved away by these people, and she casually stuffed it into her mouth, so she struggled to grab it, but she was pushed by someone and touched the big water tank under the eaves.
There was a big hole in the head immediately, and the blood flowed out, and the person lay on the ground, until here, the hob meat was afraid, and ran away with something and the person.
When the old lady saw her daughter lying on the ground, she raised her head to the sky and screamed miserably and pounced.
ran all the way to the hospital, but at that time, the whole village except for two board cars, not even a bicycle, the hospital was far away, even if the family ran desperately, desperately running, to the halfway point of the girl still softened, lying on her brother's back and out of breath.
But the old lady seemed to be stunned, and pulled her son to tell him to hurry up, and the hospital arrived, and it arrived.
The eldest son didn't believe that his sister went like this, and he ran desperately, but when he got to the hospital, the doctor looked at the person, touched the body, and said, the person has gone, go home and prepare things.
As soon as the words fell, the old lady pouted at that time, and the old man and the eldest son of the family also sat down on the ground and cried.
When I went back, I called the police, and the police arrested the one who pushed the person with the hob meat. The death penalty was imposed directly.
But the girl never came back, the old lady came back from the hospital, woke up and had mental problems, every day she sat stupidly on her kang head, no matter who she saw scolded the white-eyed wolf.
"I heard that the old lady was relieved for two years." But he never said a word to his neighbors again, and when he was carrying water in the ground, he should not see a child falling into a well.
The mother of the drowning half-dead child grabbed her hair and cried and shouted, why are you so ruthless, why are you so ruthless.
As a result, he was slapped in the face by the old lady, and shouted in a broken voice, "I'm ruthless, I'm not as ruthless as you, where were you when I was howling, where were you when my daughter was going to die?" β
threw the bucket in his hand, swept his eyes around the people around him, and paused word by word and said, "It's all forced by you, it's all forced by you." β
Later, the old lady didn't live for two years and went with her daughter.
After Liu's mother finished speaking, she looked back at the same expression as when she heard this story, sighed in her heart, and repeated what Grandma Liu had said at that time.
"Do you feel very uncomfortable, being a good person, but in the end you end up miserable." Liu's mother asked.
Liu Ying nodded subconsciously, and then asked the same question as she did back then, "Is this true?" β
Listening to the knock on the door, Liu's mother nodded lightly, "It should be!" β
"Your grandmother told me at the time that I had skills in being a man, and I made two mistakes at that time, one was to divide unevenly, and the other was to give too much." All human beings are guilty of original sin, and instinctive desires can never be erased.
Shengmien, fighting Mi Qiu is a very realistic example, once kindness is taken as a habit, it means that things are going to go bad.
In fact, what Grandma Liu wanted to tell her at that time was that she had to be a man, not to think too well of everyone, and to pay attention to skills, time, and environment when giving kindness.
It's a pity that she just had a conflict with her classmates at school because of a trivial matter, and that story is just a miserable original sin for her, she feels that it is similar to everything that happened around her, but because the gap is too big, there is no way to deeply understand the true meaning of Grandma Liu's words.
But now it's different, Liu's mother turned her head to look at Liu Ying, now is the time when it's really about survival, and this story touches Liu Ying much more than for her.
This is indeed the case, Liu Ying couldn't help but ponder, what she is doing now is right or wrong.
And just when Liu's mother taught Liu Ying that society is sinister and that people can't be trusted, in the crowd of people who smashed the door outside, the young man in the lead sat on the ground with a dumb voice and a fart.
Subconsciously turned his head and wanted to look for Li Hong, but after looking around in the corridor, he didn't see Li Hong's person, he couldn't help but ask the people around him, "Did you see Li Hong?" Where is she! β
The person who was caught was stunned for a moment when he heard Li Hong's name, and then he matched the bewitching woman in the bright red gauze skirt in his mind, and he also looked left and right, and replied, "I didn't see her, I kept kicking the door just now, and I didn't pay attention." β
The young man stood up and shouted twice, but everyone said they didn't see Li Hong.
The young man was a little anxious, and he stood up to find someone, but was stopped by the man next to him, "Maybe it's to go upstairs to the toilet, you wait first, wait first." β
He instinctively felt that the woman was a little evil, and he was so tired that he didn't want to get up and toss to find someone.
The young man in the lead was pulled by everyone to sit down, and looked left and right for a while before he smiled, "There are leeches in the building, I'm just afraid that she will bump into them." β
The people around him couldn't help but laugh bitterly when they looked at him in this quagmire, and made fun of him.
One said that the woman doesn't look young anymore, you kid has a very heavy taste, and the other pretended to retort, how do you know that this is ripe for a woman, and he squinted and scratched a few times in the direction of the leading young man.
The young man blushed and couldn't help but get up and beat the man.
