Chapter 8: Sleep on the kang
The onlookers present were dumbfounded when they saw the scene in front of them, including the stupid groom, who clasped his hands together and stopped clapping, and kept shouting in his slightly open mouth, and did not shout again.
The new house, which was originally full of festivity, was now only the breathing sound and the wailing of the tall and thin man that everyone dared not come out, "Ah! It hurts, it hurts... Pine... Relent! ”
The smell of blood spread in Fang Mumu's mouth, making her feel extremely disgusting, but she still didn't dare to let go, she knew that as soon as she let go, the hands and feet that the thin and tall man stopped at this moment would definitely become even stronger, and his miserable cry at the moment would turn into a raging fire of anger, making her repay the pain he had endured.
"Ahh The thin and tall man's voice became more sharp because the strength on Fang Mumu's teeth did not decrease but increased, "Help... Help me! ”
No one cares about the tall and thin people, maybe it is the first time in their minds to see the bride so fierce on the wedding day, so they will lose their minds and be overwhelmed.
Fang Mumu felt that her upper and lower rows of teeth were getting closer and closer little by little, and she was about to close together, and she couldn't help but think in her mind: At that time, there would be an extra ear in her mouth, and she must spit it out as soon as possible, and then how would she face the scene of certain death?
"What are you doing?!" Fang Mumu's mother-in-law Xu heard the sound of the new house, rushed in from the outside, walked through the crowd, and saw Fang Mumu and the tall thin head so close, her eyes were on fire, but as the owner, she couldn't get angry at this time, so she could only grit her teeth and say, "On this happy day, what does the ghost cry wolf howl like, why don't you hurry up and stop talking?" ”
"Auntie, help!" The tall and thin man seemed to grasp at a life-saving straw, and his wails were even more vigorous.
Fang Mumu's eyes followed the direction of the voice she heard, and she saw that her mother-in-law was glaring at her viciously, as if she had done something sorry for their family, her clenched lips and teeth lost their strength, and the whole person was stunned.
When the tall and thin man realized that the teeth that were biting his ears were slowly loosening, he immediately pulled his head to the side, and his ears finally escaped from Fang Mumu's teeth. He took advantage of the situation to push Fang Mumu away, distancing himself from Fang Mumu. He covered his ears with both hands, and knelt down in front of Fang Mumu's mother-in-law, crying and saying to Fang Mumu's mother-in-law, "Auntie, it hurts me to death!" Your daughter-in-law is not a human being, she must be a dog! ”
"No... No, Yin Yin is him..."Fang Mumu shook his head, wanting to explain to his mother-in-law.
"Shut up!" Xia Yun lowered his voice and interrupted Fang Mumu, without the slightest intention of wanting to hear Fang Mumu's explanation, "This matter ends here." ”
"But..."Fang Mumu wanted to defend herself at this time, but her mother-in-law still didn't give her a chance.
Xia Yun no longer paid attention to Fang Mumu, and turned back, a smile already appeared on his face that was still fierce and vicious just now, "This new house has also been seen, and the bride is also making trouble, you should also go out with me to eat something more, it just so happens that the fruit has just been prepared outside." ”
Everyone reacted slowly, glanced back and forth at Fang Mumu who was squatting on the kang and the tall thin man kneeling behind Xia Yun, didn't say anything anymore, and walked out of the new house one after another.
Soon only Xia Yun, Fang Mumu, the tall and thin man and the stupid groom who had been in a daze were left in the new house.
"Auntie, you must be the master for me!" The thin and tall man saw no one else, and began to cry with a lot of tears and snot, wanting to prove that he had just suffered considerable grievances and injuries.
"Alright!" Xia Yun glanced at the tall and thin man impatiently, "Huai Youcai, I know what kind of virtue you have, don't pretend here, get out quickly, otherwise don't blame me for cutting off your other ear!" ”
"Auntie! How can you wronged me so much? It's really your new daughter-in-law who brought me to the door..."Huai Youcai's crying suddenly stopped.
Xia Yun bent down and brought his face to the tall and thin man. "Do you want to kneel like this for the rest of your life?"
"Auntie, I was wrong! I was wrong! Huai Youcai heard the sound of Xia Yun gritting his back molars, he didn't dare to continue, so he had to endure the pain in his ears, stand up numbly, and then escape from the new house with his ears in his arms.
"What are you still doing here?" Xia Yun straightened up and glared at the stupid son standing beside him, "Do you want to lose your ears like your cousin?" ”
"Don't drop your ears! Don't drop your ears! Don't drop your ears! The stupid groom instantly covered his ears, for fear that his ears would fall off when he was really not paying attention.
"Still not going out yet?" Xia Yun pointed in the direction of the door and said loudly at the fool.
"Oh! I'm obedient! The fool trotted out of the new house with his hands over his ears.
After Xia Yunmu sent the silly groom away, he turned around and walked to Fang Mumu, "I said that I shouldn't marry you, I have long heard that you are the reincarnation of a broom star." Just got married, and you made such a big moth, and you will pay it back in the future? ”
"It's not like that..."
"Enough! I don't have time to listen to you here. Xia Yun looked Fang Mumu up and down, "I only hope you can be white, although my son is stupid, but his mother is not stupid, since you have married into our family, you must guard the woman's way, if I hear something indiscreet, I have a way to smelt you!" ”
Xia Yun didn't wait for Fang Mumu to respond, and turned around and left the new house directly after speaking, leaving Fang Mumu to sit on the kang alone in a daze. The tears that unconsciously shed from the corners of her eyes nourished the self-deprecating smile on the corners of her mouth: The road was chosen by yourself, what do you have to be wronged now?
After a long time, Fang Mumu wiped away the slightly moist tears on her face, she stood up, sorted out her clothes, and smoothed out the list on the kang bunk.
The sound outside was still lively, Fang Mumu sat slowly by the kang as if he had just come in from outside, waiting for the banquet outside to end and the wedding to come to an end.
This time, Fang Mumu didn't dare to close his eyes and take a nap, but endured his exhaustion and persevered. Being thin and tall is a lesson for her, and similarly, her mother-in-law, who doesn't want to see her at first glance, is a warning to her, at this moment she is sailing against the current, except for her as a boat, everyone else is against the current.
Time was pretentious minute by minute, and when he sensed that there was a numb electric current in his body, Fang Mumu stood up, stomped his feet to relieve himself, and then sat down.
In this way, Fang Mumu stayed up until dark, during this period, no one entered the new house again, and she seemed to be forgotten in the new house.
The bustle outside gradually calmed down, with the occasional two or three high-pitched shouts coming from drunken people. On such days, everyone will drink, I don't know how many times Fang Mumu, who stood up, thought when he stomped his feet to relieve the numbness, could that stupid groom also be drunk by an acquaintance?
Not long after Fang Mumu fell into thought, the sound of footsteps outside the door getting closer and closer interrupted her, she quickly sat back on the kang, looked down at her clothes and checked her clothes, and looked at the door with a smile, waiting for someone to come.
The curtain was lifted, and the silly groom, whose cheeks were flushed, lowered his head from the moment he stepped through the door, and his writhing appearance silently accused the man behind him of pushing him in.
Fang Mumu was somewhat mindful of the silly groom because of the day's events, she sat on the side of the kang, looked at the silly groom quietly, and didn't say anything.
The stupid groom, who was standing at the door and didn't want to come in, suddenly stumbled forward, and the door behind him was shut, and Xia Yun's voice sounded outside the door, "A newlywed should look like a newlywed." ”
Fang Mumu's right hand clenched his left hand, looked at the stupid groom who was not as active as during the day at the door, sighed, stood up, walked up to the silly groom, pulled his wrist and dragged it on the kang, "Let's go, it's time to sleep." ”
The stupid groom's whole body shrank back, his feet seemed to be rooted, and Fang Mumu didn't pull him at all.
"What's wrong?" Fang Mumu looked back at the silly groom with a questioning look on his face and asked.
The stupid groom's head lowered even more, and without saying a word, Fang Mumu could feel that the stupid groom's hand she was holding began to tremble, faster and faster.
Fang Mumu turned to face the silly groom, "Do you want to stand here all night?" ”
The stupid groom's bowing head was silent, which made Fang Mumu very helpless, and she suddenly remembered his reaction when his mother-in-law said that the silly groom was during the day. She put down the stupid groom's hand, "Two choices, either you stand here and I'll go out and call my mother in, or you go to sleep on the kang with me, after all, it's so dark, and you have to get up on a cloudy day." ”
The silly groom, who had been silent, finally reacted, his head still lowered, but he swayed from side to side, "Sleep." ”
"Okay, then go to sleep." Fang Mumu pulled the stupid groom's wrist again, and the stupid groom's body still instinctively retreated backwards. Seeing this, Fang Mumu let go of the stupid groom's wrist, "Then you go by yourself." ”
As he spoke, Fang Mumu stepped out of front of the silly groom, and the silly groom's lowered head was finally reluctant to lift up, and his eyes glanced at Fang Mumu timidly.
"You want me to hold it?" Fang Mumu looked at the stupid groom and asked.
The silly groom lowered his eyebrows and immediately shook his head, "Go by yourself." ”
"Okay, then you can go by yourself." Fang Mumu no longer stood in place and waited for the silly groom, but took the lead in walking to the kang, took off his shoes and put the two pillows on the kang, and then pulled the two quilts apart and placed them under the two pillows.
When Fang Mumu raised his head, the silly groom had already walked to the kang from the door, he was there, his head was still low, and he didn't mean to sleep on the kang.
"What are you doing? Come up and sleep. Fang Mumu said to the stupid groom, "Do you still need your mother to coax you to sleep?" ”
The silly groom stood stunned, except for the hands in front of him tugging at each other, he didn't react to Fang Mumu's words.
"Aren't you having a lot of fun during the day?" Fang Mumu knelt on the kang, "Why is it like a wilted eggplant at this time, asking without saying anything, and letting you do nothing." ”
Fang Mumu's patience was slowly exhausted while waiting for the silly groom to speak, although she didn't go to the field to do farm work hard this day, but this toss was enough for her, she finally stayed up until the night with dignity, she just wanted to fall asleep, she didn't want to meet such an oil and salt who didn't enter.
In desperation, Fang Mumu had to move his mother-in-law out again, "Forget it, I'll go and find my mother." ”
Fang Mumu stood up, the silent silly groom was anxious, he hurriedly stepped forward with both hands and grabbed Fang Mumu's arm, "Sleep!" Sleep! Sleep! ”
"And what are you doing standing on the ground?" Fang Mumu's eyes looked at the feet of the silly groom standing on the ground.
The stupid groom then spread Fang Mumu's arm, reluctantly took off his shoes and went to the kang, did not take off his clothes, picked the quilt against the wall and got in, and closed his eyes tightly.
Fang Mumu didn't say anything anymore, and after turning off the lights in the new house, he took off his wedding clothes in the dark, and lay down in another quilt in his autumn clothes and pants. For her, tonight's wedding is much the same as usual, the only difference is that her mother has become a strange man. So, tired, she soon fell asleep.
