Chapter 32: Cutting and Messing

"You keep saying that there is something, this is the New Year, there is something to do, you are not happy, and my family is not safe." Xiao Yuxuan said coldly: "My mother drank too much at night, since you can't even wait for tomorrow, then tell me directly if there is anything!" ”

Xiao Yuxuan's behavior made the three of them stunned, as if they didn't know each other.

Speaking of which, it's because of Xiao Yuxuan in the past, who was completely obedient, didn't speak all day long, and thought he was a dumb person if he didn't know, even if he occasionally popped out a few words, he was still stumbling and not making sense.

Or the old lady was the first to react: "Is it useful to tell you?" I don't look in the mirror to take a good look, the hair is not long, and the wolf has a big tail......"

Xiao Yuxuan directly replied with a roll of his eyes, "I know that it is not the blood of your Chen family that flows on my body, so you never treat me, when I was a child, I was not killed by you and starved to death...... Don't lean on the old and sell the old in front of me...... If you want to say it, just say it, if you don't want to say pull it down, don't be weird and endless......"

It is not for nothing that the original owner has been afraid and hated this old lady who calls himself "grandma" since he was a child.

Since I can remember, my grandmother has been wrong with the original owner, and she scolded her three sentences for nothing, and she was merciless in beating and scolding, and it was even more common for her to be hungry if she didn't have enough to eat.

The most impressive time was when my parents went out and left the original owner at my grandmother's house. Several children in the same village laughed at the original owner as a "wild child", so they picked up a stone and threw it hard, which happened to open the door of one of the children's heads. Later, the child's parents came to the door to theorize, and the grandmother lost the medical money in anger. Turning around, he punched and kicked the original owner, shouted and scolded and picked up a bamboo stick and hit the original owner, the original owner subconsciously reached out to block, and the result was a heart-wrenching pain at the elbow of his left hand.

It wasn't until the parents came back in the evening and took off their clothes amid the painful cries of the original owner that they found that their elbows were swollen. I rushed to the county hospital overnight and was told that the radiology department had left work and could only be dealt with briefly in the emergency room. It was not until the next day, after the doctor went to work, that an X-ray examination was taken and it was found that the bone was misaligned and cracked. Later, although he was cured, the elbow of the original owner's left arm could no longer be straightened like a normal person.

And this incident is the trigger for the original owner's family to move to the county seat to rent a house.

When I was a child, whenever the original owner saw that the children of other families were regarded as treasures in the palm of his parents, he couldn't help but be very envious at the same time, and at the same time, he couldn't understand why he was regarded as an abandonment.

It wasn't until I grew up and became sensible that I slowly pieced together the answer from some rumors and casual chats with people close to me.

There must be a reason for everything, and this involves some old things.

Xiao Yuxuan's grandfather's name is Xiao Jiancheng, in their era, being able to read and hyphenate had to be looked down upon, and it was absolutely amazing that a college student could come out of ten miles and eight villages. So the thing that he is most proud of is not that he can go from a primary school teacher to a leader of the county education bureau, but that he can train his two sons and three daughters into "cultural people" who are envied by others.

Xiao Zening, the youngest daughter he loves the most, is also the most competitive, unlike his brother and sister's high school education, junior college teacher, and health school, she was admitted to Sichuan Provincial Institute of Education. It is this daughter who makes him the proudest the most, and after four years of college life, she brought home not only the ink in her belly, but also the little life in her belly......

This unexpected news made Xiao Jiancheng feel like he was struck by lightning, but his daughter did not reveal the "perpetrator", and opposed the beating of the child, and his resolute stubbornness made him helpless except for anger.

Counting the days are about to show pregnancy, Xiao Jiancheng and his family know that it is definitely not a way to drag it out, the rumors of "unmarried pregnancy" will ruin their daughter's life, the only feasible thing is to find a mother-in-law for her daughter to marry as soon as possible, but they are reluctant to let their daughter marry far away. Moreover, even if she gets married, her daughter's pregnancy will definitely not be hidden from her in-laws, and she can't hide it for the sake of the future.

Is it easy to find this kind of in-law who can't be too far away from home and is willing to accept her pregnant daughter as a daughter-in-law?

Xiao Jiancheng and his wife hid from their daughter in many ways, and in a hurry, they could only "pick the general among the lame". Not to mention, the man who was photographed was really a cripple.

The lame man's surname is Chen Dongsheng, his family lives in a remote village called Tumen under Qingyuan Township, which is dozens of miles away from Guangyang County, his parents died when he was young, and he has no brothers and sisters, he was raised by his uncle, he joined the army when he grew up, and he broke his leg in the engineering army due to an accident and became lame, so he retired from the army and returned to his hometown.

Chen Cripple is an honest man, and after returning home from the army, he dragged a lame leg in the field to gouge. A few years later, under the control of his elderly uncle, he married a widow from the next village. The widow's surname is Ma, although she is a good hand at farm work, but she has a young daughter like an oil bottle, coupled with an extremely pungent temperament and a sharp mouth, she naturally has no good reputation, so she has not been able to remarry. Now the two live together, but no one should dislike anyone.

This horse widow is Xiao Yuxuan's grandmother, Mrs. Ma.

After Mrs. Ma got married, she gave birth to a son and a daughter to Chen Cripple, and the son was named Chen Manfu.

After all, Chen's lame legs and feet are not good, and although Mrs. Ma worked hard to support her three children, she was extremely embarrassed that day. Seeing that Chen Manfu is twenty-three or four, because his family is poor, he can't afford to talk about his daughter-in-law at all, which makes Chen Lame and Mrs. Ma anxious.

When Xiao Jiancheng and his wife came to the door with sincerity to propose marriage, the two sides naturally hit it off.

In the eyes of Xiao Jiancheng and his family, although Chen Cripple's family is very poor, and Mrs. Ma, who is in charge, is a "powerful person" who is not easy to get along with, but the population is simple, and Chen Manfu seems to be an honest and responsible person, at least willing to accept his pregnant daughter as his daughter-in-law. If you are worried that your daughter will be angry with her mother-in-law after marriage, it is a big deal that the young couple will live in the county town after marriage and arrange a teacher job for your daughter, as long as the son-in-law is not lazy, under his own care, a small family will still have a head.

The honest Chen lame man is silent and listens to his daughter-in-law in everything, so this family is naturally headed by Mrs. Ma. When she heard that she could be an in-law with an official in the county education bureau, and her daughter-in-law was a college student, Mrs. Ma was naturally overjoyed, and when she learned that the woman not only did not want a bride price, but also had a generous dowry of 600 in cash alone, she was even more overjoyed, and left her unmarried and pregnant heart behind, and hurriedly agreed.

Xiao Zening, who is gradually becoming pregnant, was worried about the lack of news from the bastard man who "lifted his pants and didn't admit it", but was told that the wedding date was approaching, how could she accept it? But she couldn't turn a deaf ear to her parents' bitter and repeated advice, and her mother, who was heartbroken for her, even said something that forced her to die, so that she couldn't be indifferent.

Xiao Zening, who felt that he had met someone unladylike, finally had no choice but to accept his fate.

This marriage of "the door is not the right household" has shocked countless people, and the news that the bride gave birth in May after marriage has made all kinds of rumors and speculations rampant.

At the beginning, Mrs. Ma fought hard and tried her best to protect her daughter-in-law, but for this reason, she had constant quarrels with outsiders, and it was common to scold her.

Accumulating and destroying the bones, the crowd is not talking about fun.

After a long time, the mustard heart that was left behind slowly grew again, and the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was already difficult, and Mrs. Ma naturally felt that it was not pleasing to the eye anywhere.

For example, I feel that as told outsiders, my son's rustic appearance is not worthy of his daughter-in-law; For example, the delicate daughter-in-law can't pick up her shoulders or lift it, and she is not a peasant daughter-in-law; For example, the son treats his daughter-in-law as an ancestor every day, and it is so rare that it is not good; For example, the daughter-in-law is glamorous every day, no wonder some people say that it is a water-based poplar......

What annoyed Mrs. Ma was that the cheap grandson with the nickname "Yiyi" did not have a place like her son's slowly growing eyebrows; What is unacceptable is that it has been a few years since I had this cheap grandson, and my daughter-in-law's stomach has not moved; was furious that when the cheap grandson was registered, he actually carried his surname Xiao behind his back and named him Xiao Yuxuan; What was completely violent was that when he asked, his son dared to explain to himself with a face, discussed with his daughter-in-law, and decided that he planned to only have this one child in his life, so his nickname was "Yiyi"......

When Mrs. Ma heard this, she was angry! This flower-like daughter-in-law is a fox, she fascinates her son to the point of delirium, and even such a big thing as inheriting the lineage can be regarded as child's play, if she really wants to let the fox's trick succeed, even if the bloodline of the old Chen family is broken, how can she endure it?

As a result, the contradictions that had been accumulated for a long time broke out, and Xiao Yuxuan's situation took a sharp turn for the worse. When Chen Cripple couldn't see it, he occasionally persuaded him to say a word or two, but he was scolded by Mrs. Ma, who was used to being arrogant.

Xiao Yuxuan's arm was broken by a bamboo stick, which made Xiao Zening make up his mind to move to the city to rent a house, and Chen Manfu, who was scolded by Mrs. Ma as "a ghost and a ghost, doesn't know what to do", also followed.

Seeing that her son is like a king eating scales - iron-hearted, she is unwilling to divorce the fox, Mrs. Ma can only pinch her nose and admit it, but it is okay not to divorce, and it is absolutely impossible not to give birth to a grandson for herself. So, Mrs. Ma came to the door every once in a while to make trouble, and Xiao Zening was so annoyed that she moved several times.

Seeing that there was no result of only messing with the fox, Mrs. Ma simply went directly to the in-laws who were in charge of the official to ask for an explanation.

Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, and for a time it was full of wind and rain, and all kinds of rumors flew all over the sky.

At this time, it was Xiao Zening's mother who came forward, and she tried to find her daughter several times, but she said all the good things and bad things, so that her daughter could relax and have another child.

Xiao Zening had the news that she was pregnant again, and finally let Mrs. Ma give birth, and the whole thing slowly subsided.

Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what the next one will taste like. The same is true for pregnancy and childbirth, and no one can say whether it will be a boy or a girl except for the prenatal doctor.

The following year, Xiao Zening gave birth to a daughter, and because of this birth, there was no chance of pregnancy in the future.

When Mrs. Ma learned of this, although she was extremely unwilling, she also knew that there was no reason to make trouble with the fox and even her in-laws, unless she let her unhappy son divorce and remarry, otherwise, it would be impossible for her grandson's idea to come true.

It just happened that those years were the prelude to the booming development of the domestic construction industry, although Xiao Yuxuan's uncle Xiao Zeli only graduated from high school, he couldn't stand to enter the industry early, and he had a father who was a leader of the Education Bureau, so he worked as a project manager in Guangyang Yijian, the largest local construction company in Guangyang County.

Xiao Zeli was tired of the house and black, and he couldn't help but be dissatisfied with his brother-in-law Chen Manfu, but out of distress for his little sister, he still took his brother-in-law Chen Manfu to start the construction industry, and later subcontracted some small projects to Chen Manfu. With the care of his eldest brother Xiao Zeli, Chen Manfu slowly became a small contractor, unable to make a lot of money, and it was more than enough to support his family.

After Xiao Zening was weaned by his daughter Chen Yumo, he also chose to join the teaching team and became a teacher in the county No. 3 Middle School.

At this point, the family's life gradually became calmer.

But the trees want to be still, and the wind does not stop.

Mrs. Ma, who is slowly getting older, is naturally unwilling to break off the idea of her grandson, and has repeatedly persuaded her son to divorce and remarry with Fox Meizi but has not been able to do so.

I don't know which old saying is answered, is it "men become bad when they are rich", or "how can cats not eat fishy", or "domestic flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers"?

Anyway, when Chen Manfu was poor, he was able to tighten his belt and guard Xiao Zening, and only the words of his mother and eldest sister were deaf ears. After the days slowly got better, I don't know if it was because the belly grew flesh or because the roots of the ears became softer, the belt was tight, and this looseness was completely indulged.

Therefore, people are very cheap, and they will live a hard life, but they can't understand a good life......

Paper, after all, can't contain the fire.

In Xiao Yuxuan's memory, in the years of junior high and high school, his mother Xiao Zening was angry, cried, and noisy, and whenever this happened, his father Chen Manfu would only smoke without saying a word.

I can't remember when it began, but my mother Xiao Zening changed, learned to drink, and occasionally got drunk; His father, Chen Manfu, has also changed, becoming more indifferent, and often does not return home at night; The whole home, the only thing that hasn't changed is probably this rented dilapidated house......

At that time, her sister Chen Yumo was still ignorant, and Xiao Yuxuan, who was already sensible, had raised questions in her heart with her mother, and her mother replied very indifferently: "Let's just have a good time!" ”

Mother was right.

She supported this home, which was not like a home, and took care of her brother and sister as much as possible.

Growing up has developed Xiao Yuxuan's taciturn introverted personality, and his only hobby when he grew up was music, he deeply remembered that despite the family's poor conditions, his mother still satisfied his desire to learn to practice the piano, and when he applied for college, he chose a conservatory, and his mother never said a word of objection.

So now that these three people are so difficult for their mother, how can Xiao Yuxuan bear it?
