Chapter 13: Little Ancestor
When Liu Meijuan returned home, she saw Xiao Jianhua sitting on a rattan chair, talking to her son with a gentle expression, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and raised the basket in her hand to offer courtesy: "Jianhua, I bought more than two catties of pork belly, make dumplings for you at night, and then make you a chili fried meat." ”
Their family's conditions in the village are among the best, and they are willing to buy some meat to eat when they are not in the middle.
You know, many people in the village can eat meat once a month, which is very good.
But to make dumplings, you have to knead the dough, roll the dough, and chop the meat, and one person has to work for at least three hours.
On this hot day, Liu Meijuan is rare and generous in order to please him.
It was also because she bought three yuan of meat, so she didn't want to be cheap Xiao Hong from the bottom of her heart, so she was very happy to see her leave with the box.
When Xiao Jianhua saw her, he immediately blackened his face, stood up, pointed at her nose and scolded: "You idiot, do you want to ruin me?" ”
Liu Meijuan was very glad that she had brought her children back, otherwise he would definitely do it to himself.
She was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she said tremblingly: "Don't be angry, the Zhao family's affairs, I am too anxious." ”
Xiao Jianhua laughed angrily at her: "You still dare to say it?" Are you afraid that the people in the village won't know that you are a black-hearted stepmother, right? ”
He also knew that the people in the village wanted to see their own liveliness, even if they wanted to do it, they had to endure it now.
Especially his ex-wife is also there, and he can't let her see jokes.
Holding back his hand, he gasped for breath and gritted his teeth: "You don't have a door on your mouth, and you told her all the fragrant things, aren't you afraid that we won't have a face to see people?" ”
When Lou Fenfang heard this, her eyes turned red, and she turned around and ran back to her room.
At the beginning, she was afraid that if she came to Xiao's house with her mother, she would become a drag oil bottle, who would have thought that Uncle Xiao would treat her very well, and overheard her mother and grandmother complaining that she was also the blood of the Xiao family, but her mother-in-law only loved Xiao Hong.
Only then did she understand her background.
But she always pretended that she didn't know.
After all, if this thing gets out, the reputation of 'Zaz' will not be good.
When women in the countryside quarrel, it is really taboo for meat and vegetarians, and any swear words can be scolded.
Lou Fenfang has also seen a lot, and I have heard a lot of gossip behind the backs of those aunts and aunts, and they are even more unscrupulous.
Beat her to death, and she doesn't want to be the protagonist after tea and dinner in other people's mouths.
"What did you say?" Liu Meijuan was also anxious, and after pushing her son into her daughter's room, she closed the door before she said anxiously: "I'm not a fool, I can't wait to rot this in my stomach, how can I tell her?" ”
"There's no way I'm going to tell this anyway." Xiao Jianhua actually didn't want to believe that she would tell Xiao Hong about her fragrant life experience at first, he glared at her and said angrily: "Then if you didn't say it, how could Xiao Hong know?" ”
Liu Meijuan was also dumbfounded: "Yes, then how would she know?" Isn't that evil? ”
This fact is disgraceful, they didn't even reveal Grandma Xiao.
In fact, when Liu Meijuan saw her mother-in-law loving Xiao Hong, she wanted to tell her mother-in-law, and she also wanted her mother-in-law to be kind to her daughter.
But Xiao Jianhua was unwilling, he was afraid that such an ugly thing would make his mother angry.
Xiao Jianhua, although he is greedy for money and lustful, loves to show off his face, but when Grandma Xiao was alive, he was still filial and obedient.
The couple didn't fight and made everything clear.
After listening, Liu Meijuan gasped: "We finally raised her to such a big age, how much effort did it take?" How can you agree to let her follow Wu Julan? ”
Seeing that Xiao Hong could marry someone in exchange for a bride price, he agreed to move Xiao Hong's household registration out, that didn't make her lose a bride price of a few thousand yuan, how could she be willing?
Xiao Jianhua couldn't control his temper anymore, and raised his hand and gave her a slap: "You don't have a face, I still want a face, who did you find for her?" Are you supposed to be dead? ”
Of course, he didn't love Xiao Hong much, or he felt indebted to Xiao Hong.
But if things really get bigger, he will have no face.
What's more, he was also unwilling to let Xiao Hong follow his ex-wife from the bottom of his heart, which was not forced to agree at that time.
Now that it's a foregone conclusion, she is still chattering crookedly in front of her, which is simply begging.
The pain made Liu Meijuan sober up, she was afraid of being beaten again, so she quickly knelt beside him and hugged his leg: "It's me who is wrong, you are the head of the family, of course you have the final say in the affairs of our family." ”
flattered again: "Brother Hua, you dissipate your anger, you have suffered in the past two days, I'll go and fry your meat first and let you drink, okay?" ”
In this position, even if he wanted to hit himself in the face again, he couldn't hit it.
And she also knows what Xiao Jianhua likes to hear.
Sure enough, Xiao Jianhua also ate her set, and didn't beat her anymore, and said angrily: "Then don't hurry up!" ”
…
Wu Julan took her two daughters to borrow Xiao Erye's house for one night, and left early the next morning.
Xiao Jianming carried two boxes on his bicycle and sent them to the intersection where they were waiting for passing cars.
They took a passing bus to the station in Changshan Town, bought tickets, and waited for a while before getting on the bus to Houzhai Town.
Now there are few trains, only two times a day, everyone is afraid that they will not be able to catch the car, and would rather people come and wait for the car early, after all, the car will not wait for people.
Now there are few cement roads, many sections are potholed dirt roads, and it is now summer, there is not only the smell of diesel fuel on the car, but also the smell of heavy sweat, and there are chicken coops on the aisle, so it is inevitable that there is a smell of.
She also knew that her mother and sister took good care of themselves, because they left her window seat to bring the smell of summer with a warm breeze and make her more comfortable.
Xiao Hong wanted to cover her nose very much, but she didn't want to suffocate herself to death, so she could only listen to the clucking of the hen and ride in the car for nearly two hours before arriving at Houzhai Town.
As soon as they got out of the car, they saw Zhao Youqiang already waiting on the side.
He was wearing patched green pants, a gray shirt, and a towel around his neck to wipe sweat, and when he saw them get out of the car, he showed a sincere smile: "You're back, let's go eat something first, shall we?" ”
He knew that Xiao Hong disliked the village.
Their village has not been connected to electricity until now, the fan cannot be used, and there is no place to watch the TV, which is indeed not as good as Shantou Village.
In the past, Xiao Hong was very unaccustomed to coming, and kept pulling his face.
Xiao Hong was unhappy, and his daughter-in-law couldn't be happy, he felt sorry for his daughter-in-law when he saw it.
Anyway, he didn't sleep for most of the night last night, just because Xiao Hong came, he didn't know how to wait for this little ancestor.
In order to welcome this little ancestor, he specially borrowed an ox cart and gritted his teeth to go to the restaurant.
You must know that in the past, when he came out to work, he couldn't go back to eat, so he could make do with two steamed buns, and he was reluctant to buy a bowl of noodles for himself.
