Chapter 17: Collapse
After two trips, I moved all the food, and the rain gradually became heavier.
The family of three was in the courtyard of Zhuzi's house, and Fang said, "This rain is getting heavier and heavier, and we will go back in a while." ”
Zhu Ziniang said, "What are you going to do when you go back?" Just live here, where can people live in the pig shed? You'll have to think of a long-term solution, and if you want me to say, this division is still too urgent. ”
Fang didn't speak, Zhu Ziniang sighed again, "Don't blame me for speaking too directly, I'm planning for you, you have suffered a big loss this time, knowing that your father and mother are biased, you still choose to mention it at this time, isn't that for them to pinch?" The land is not divided, so what will you do when you finish eating all this food? I'm an outsider who looks at it and worries about it. ”
Fang Shi said at this time, "If you don't steam steamed buns to fight for breath, no matter how hard the days are, you can grit your teeth and get by, although it is a little bitter to go out now, you don't have to look at people's faces, and your sister-in-law will bother." ”
Zhu Ziniang said, "What's the trouble, the life is your own, it's not nice to say, our Xiangshui Village is notoriously poor, watching you get angry, in fact, many people are also uncomfortable, if you really have that ability, you also want to help, don't say what, make up some money for you to repair the house first, but every household is like this, the village chief's family is living a good life, right?" If this is pulled outside, it can't be said, our village is poor. ”
Fang Shi also sighed, "Who said no, we are here in the mountains, it is indeed like this, sister-in-law, you don't have to worry about us, you can always get over by gritting your teeth, I don't believe that life without them is getting worse and worse." ”
Zhu Ziniang smiled, "Okay, it's good to have this ambition." ”
It was almost dark, and the rain gradually stopped, and the Fang family was about to go back with a pair of children
Zhu Ziniang said, "Let's live here, it's raining so hard, and the shed is probably wet, just here we are, and the crowding is the same." ”
In this village, she and Zhu Ziniang can still talk to each other, people think about them everywhere, how can they trouble others?
Their house is also crowded, and if three people really come in, they don't know how to sleep tonight.
Fang Shi said, "That's not necessary, although that place is ventilated on all sides, it is quite wide, it shouldn't be all wet, go back and spread the grass again and you can sleep." ”
Zhu Ziniang still wanted to pull them, but Fang Shi left directly with the two children, and only sighed when they got outside.
"Let's live a hard life, we can always get by, and it's not good to cause trouble to others, let's go back."
Jiang Chengjia nodded, and hurriedly helped his sister, Jiang Jingxue said, "Mother, it's all my fault for mentioning the separation, otherwise we will at least have a place to live." ”
Fang Shi smiled, "Why did you say this, you didn't hear what I said just now, right?" Mother doesn't believe that life is not good without them, these years Mother has been very aggrieved, just for the sake of harmony in this family, even if I am angry, I always endure it, I don't want to bother your father, but I have repeatedly endured it, but let them think that our mother is easy to bully, your brother is like this, and he doesn't know how to fight, you are the same as your mother, your temperament is weaker, it is a good thing to move out, and it is bitter now, but in the future, it will be a good life, and this is not allowed to be mentioned again in the future. ”
Jiang Jingxue smiled and nodded slightly, she thought to herself, my temperament is not weak, once I ran out of that big mountain col, I have no ID card and no money, and I don't rely on myself to live a good life? By the time I was in my early twenties, I had hundreds of thousands of dollars in savings.
Jiang Jingxue remembered the days before, it was indeed bitter, she also lived in a cave, and she shed tears when she looked at the rainstorm outside, and she didn't know if she was colder in her body or colder in her heart.
But no matter how hard the days are, there will always be a day when she will come out, even if she has been starving for several days without food, she has never regretted leaving the big mountain col, leaving her own group of family members who don't take her seriously, and now it's the same, she doesn't believe in this evil.
When they returned to the pig slaughtering shed, there was still water on the ground, and the three of them didn't say anything, but started to clean up the wet straw, and then re-laid the sleeping place.
After working for most of the day, and touching the quilt soaked with water, Fang finally couldn't hold back, and sat on the ground and cried.
Jiang Jingxue hurriedly helped her up, "Mother, don't sit on the ground, it's cold on the ground, didn't you just tell us?" I'll always find a way. ”
Fang Shi just cried and didn't speak, Jiang Jingxue actually understood what she was thinking.
Those words were told to them, in fact, she was also telling herself, to have hope, believe that life will always get better, so that she will not be so uncomfortable, but the reality is like this, the collapse is often only in an instant, at this time there is actually no need to comfort, just need to be by her side.
Jiang Chengjia lit the fire, got some water to boil inside, and brought water over after a while, "Mother, drink water, your body is cold." ”
At this time, the hands and feet of several people are cold, it is already winter, and it is raining, and the humidity here is heavy, where can I stand it?
After relieving himself, Fang Shi said, "Xue'er, I can live here with your father, tomorrow my mother will take you to my mother's house, even if you kneel down and beg, you must ask your parents-in-law to agree to let you live there, and when your father gets some silver, we will build a few thatched houses, and you will come back when the time comes." ”
Jiang Jingxue immediately shook her head, "I don't, I'm going to be here, mother, didn't you just say it?" We have to run for a good life, how can we be discouraged at this time? Believe me, I'll have a way to get by, I'll make a lot of money, and I'll never let people look down on me. ”
Fang's smiled, in fact, she didn't take Jiang Jingxue's words to heart, in her opinion, the woman's family should also take care of the family's affairs, where can she make money?
But she is also happy that her daughter has such ambition, it is better than crying like her, right?
No matter what, the days still have to pass, a few people sat together and talked for a while, Jiang got up again, and simply made something to eat, and after a few people ate, they went to bed very early.
It's really cold to fall asleep here, and when the wind blows, the whole person is shivering, but tonight the food is at least in a safe place, and you don't have to worry about the food being stolen by rats, and you can sleep peacefully.
I woke up several times in the middle of the night, this ghost weather, it's hard to really sleep peacefully, and in the second half of the night, there was no wind, and the mother and son were almost asleep when it was almost dawn.
It was dawn, and several people were still asleep, when suddenly a few shrill laughter came, and they all woke up.
