Grandma Li was sometimes sober and sometimes confused, but when Uncle Li was looking for a house in the county and preparing to move, her mind was too clear. He resolutely said that he would not go to the county seat, saying that he was not used to living there.

Uncle Li asked her if she would like to go to Uncle Li's house. The reason why she had this idea was also because the old lady had been at Uncle Li's house for more than a month, and Chen Honglian took good care of her.

Among the children, Grandma Li liked Second Uncle Li the most, and when she heard this, she immediately agreed, and urged Uncle Li to send her away quickly.

Because Grandma Li was in the house most of the time, Uncle Li also moved electrical appliances such as TVs and radios. After that, he would go to visit the old lady every once in a while.

In late September, the county was plagued by the flu, and Diandian, Niu Niu and Sanbao all fell ill with fever one after another. When the children were almost better, Uncle Li and Aunt Li caught a cold again, and everyone was in a hurry. After this delay, I haven't seen Grandma Li for half a month.

On Sunday, Tian Dalin rested.

After breakfast, Li Guihua said to him: "Yesterday, I sent a few catties of apples to the manager, and the day before yesterday, I also brought back a basket of oranges, and you took two or three catties of each to send to your mother." ”

Xiang Chengyi's father is quite good at being a man, and he will send something to Tian Dalin and his wife every once in a while. The same is true, the relationship between the two families is good.

After Tian Dalin had breakfast, he took these things to Second Uncle Li's house. When he arrived at the entrance of the village, he thought about it and did not go to the house of Second Uncle Li and his wife, but went to a family in the village. The daughter of this family is a clever man, and she passed the assessment and went to work in the Peony Garment Factory.

The men of the family went to work in the fields, and only the women stayed at home to watch the children. It just so happened that this aunt knew Tian Dalin, and she greeted him enthusiastically and invited him into the house to sit down.

The countrymen are all straightforward, so Tian Dalin didn't beat around the bush and asked directly: "Auntie, I want to ask, how is my mother-in-law here during this time?" ”

He couldn't trust Li Tie and Chen Honglian, so he wanted to confirm his guess through others. After all, if a village is not good for the elderly, it will definitely not be able to escape the eyes of the villagers.

The girl looked hesitant. His daughter entrusted Tian Daya's blessing to work in Yangcheng Garment Factory, which is also the favor of the Tian family; But Chen Honglian is so powerful, if she knew that she was talking about it, she might have to come to the house to make trouble.

Tian Dalin said: "Auntie, my eldest brother was sent here because the child was going to study in the county seat, and the old lady was not happy to stay in the county seat, not because he didn't support her. If the old lady is not doing well here, my eldest brother will take her back. Auntie, if there's anything wrong, I hope you can tell me. ”

After a pause, he said again: "Don't worry, I'll go back after talking to you, and I won't let them know that you said it." ”

When the eldest aunt heard this, she said: "Then you have to talk and count, no one can know that I told you, otherwise Chen Honglian will tear down my house." ”

"Don't worry, never say it."

The eldest aunt whispered, "I heard that there is a TV in the old lady's house, and they move it to their house every evening, and then move back in the morning." Because watching TV is more expensive, the old lady is not allowed to watch it on weekdays. ”

If you don't watch TV, it's nothing, and I'm afraid that you won't take care of it carefully.

Tian Dalin hurriedly asked, "What about weekdays?" The old lady is often confused now, and she can't take care of herself, does my second uncle and his daughter-in-law take good care of her? ”

The eldest aunt glanced outside, then lowered her voice and said: "The old lady urinated or pulled, Chen Honglian scolded in the yard, and once their neighbors heard the old lady's crying!" ”

There is no need to hear of this, after all, Chen Honglian's loud voice can't block the sound through a wall. You can hear it as long as you pass by her door.

Tian Dalin's face was very ugly, the old lady was confused, it was impossible to cry after being scolded twice, and nine times out of ten she was beaten. With a dark face, he asked, "What about the food?" Do you give all three meals on time? Also, my daughter-in-law and eldest brother will send some food from time to time, can the old lady eat? ”

When the things were delivered, everyone didn't expect them to go into the old lady's mouth, after all, it was very hard to take care of an old man with a confused brain. But no matter what, the old lady must always eat a few bites.

The old lady shook her head to indicate that it was not clear. Watching TV or swearing and crying has a sound that can be heard by outsiders. What is eaten, Chen Honglian's family did not say anything, and no one has no way of knowing.

Tian Dalin didn't go to Chen Honglian's house anymore, he gave apples and oranges to his aunt and went back.

When he got home, he told Li Guihua that the old lady was all right.

Li Guihua didn't think much about it, and said that the old lady likes to eat braised pork, and said that next time she goes to burn a bowl of braised pork, she will take it with her.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Tian Dalin told her what his aunt said.

Li Guihua exploded at once: "Why didn't you talk about this in the morning, and only told me now?" ”

The husband and wife have been married for more than 20 years, and he knows Li Guihua's temperament very well, and he must know that this matter will rush over now: "The aunt said that they moved the TV to their house before dark. You wait until it's dark, and then you get a catch. Also, when you get there, will you see if there are any injuries on your mother's body? ”

Li Guihua gritted her teeth and said, "If my mother is injured, I will tear that slut." ”

This kind of thing must not be just the husband and wife, and they went to call Uncle Li again. Knowing that Uncle Li was very filial, Tian Dalin only said that Li Tie and Chen Honglian moved the TV into their house, and they didn't dare to talk about anything else.

In this way, Uncle Li was so angry that he immediately rode a bicycle with Tian Dalin and Li Guihua to Chenjiazhuang.

When he arrived at Li Tie's house, Uncle Li went straight to the old lady's house.

As soon as the door opened, an indescribable smell came to my face. Uncle Li couldn't care about the TV anymore, so he hurried to see the old lady: "Mother, mother, what's wrong with you?" ”

Although the old lady was still confused, when she saw Uncle Li, tears fell involuntarily.

Li Guihua lifted the quilt, and the smell became even heavier. She said to Uncle Li with red eyes: "Big brother, you go and fetch a basin of water, and I will wipe my mother's body and change her clothes." ”

I don't even clean it up when I pull it on my body, no wonder there is such a heavy smell in this room. I miss my mother at my eldest brother's house, and I am clean and refreshing every day, and it will not be the same for a long time.

Uncle Li silently went to the kitchen to fetch water, but there was no hot water in the kitchen at all. He went into the house and found the kettle, which was filled with hot water.

Second Uncle Li and Chen Honglian were chatting with people outside, and heard his grandson say that the grandfather was shocked and hurried back.

As soon as he entered the door, Second Uncle Li was hit with a heavy stick, and he almost fainted in pain. Seeing that the second stick came down again, he turned around and tried to run, and then a stick landed on his lap, causing him to fall directly to the ground.

Chen Honglian stood in front and was pushed to the ground by Uncle Li, and then the stick hit Second Uncle Li like raindrops, making him cry wolf.

Chen Honglian saw that something was wrong, and shouted loudly: "Murder, murder, come and save people!" ”

This shout led the neighbors next door, and when they saw this scene, they hurriedly came to stop them. There were so many people who stopped him, and in the end, the stick in Uncle Li's hand was snatched away.
