Chapter 7 The heart is very biased
I saw that there was a contradiction in front of me again!
The two sides of the contradiction are Zhao Yu's mother Hu and grandfather Zhao Youcai.
The location of the contradiction is the pigsty a few dozen meters to the left of the Zhao family's old house.
Like the bullpen, the Zhao family's pigsty is now empty.
The Zhao family had a cow many years ago, but then it was gone, and the cattle pen was piled with sundries, and it was not until the family was divided that it was transformed into a thatched house and given to the Zhao Yu family.
As for this pigsty.
The Zhao family had always had pigs before.
It's just that now the people in Jing can't eat enough, let alone raising pigs, it was empty last year, and it was kept by Old Man Zhao himself, and there was no point.
The pigsty is separated by two layers of wooden planks, with pigs on the bottom and straw on the top.
Straw is used to lay the ground for pigs, and after the pigsty is vomited by pig feces, it can be used as fertilizer.
The Zhao family now has no pigs, but there is still straw, and it is also divided, and the Zhao Yu family is divided into eight bundles.
Now the straw of the three families is still stored on the upper floor of the pigsty.
It's just that now, Old Man Zhao is standing upstairs and throwing down the straw that belongs to Zhao Yu's family.
And Hu Shi seemed to have just come here, saw his own straw being thrown down, looked up at the old man Zhao upstairs, and shed tears of grievance:
"Daddy! If you don't use the pigsty now, can't you let my family put it in it? You threw all the straw down, my house is small, what do you want your daughter-in-law to do? ”
"It's your own business! Now that it's divided, take it back! lest they all be left here, or something, and you will have to make noise again! ”
Old man Zhao pinned a pipe to his waist, took the straw and threw it down, without looking at Hu.
Although his words seemed to be good for Hu, they were harsh and irritated no matter how they listened.
Seeing this scene, even the neighbors who heard the movement and came out to watch shook their heads.
An old man couldn't bear to see Hu's miserable figure, and looked at the old man Zhao on the pigsty with a sigh:
"Old cigarette butts, the children have just separated, everything is pulled to help, how can there be any out!"
"Yes! The Hu family is in charge of this family, it's pitiful, Yongzhuo is still injured! ”
The others next to him couldn't stand it, and they echoed it one after another.
There were also some people who didn't want to do much and didn't make a sound, but they looked at Old Man Zhao with strange eyes.
Hearing these voices, Old Man Zhao felt as if he was being pointed out by a thousand people, and he couldn't do it anymore, so he stopped.
However, Old Man Zhao will not admit his mistake.
With a long mouth, Old Man Zhao climbed down the ladder, then patted the dust on his body, and walked slowly towards his house with his hands behind his back, without looking at Hu.
However, after walking past Hu's side, Old Man Zhao said as if talking to himself:
"If you don't have enough to eat, there are yellow eels and water snakes on the ridges, and children will not learn nonsense if they stuff things in their mouths!"
Hearing this, those neighbors were immediately confused.
But Hu Shi and Zhao Yu, who was not far away, had a sinking face.
In an instant, Hu Shi and Zhao Yu understood that the straw had been put away for two months, why did Old Man Zhao suddenly do this today!
Yesterday, when the old man rotated the irrigation water, Zhao Yu poked more than a dozen holes in the ditch, Hu said that it was drilled by yellow eel and water snake, and Zhao Yu also used Zhao's words to suppress Chen.
Today, Old Man Zhao threw their straw and used yesterday's words to be yin and yang, which was angry for the old family and himself.
is also stealing irrigation water, but Old Man Zhao has a different attitude towards the two families.
With him.
If you steal it, you steal it, and you should use some water, and it's not called stealing.
But the second family did this, and Old Man Zhao personally came out to vent his anger for the old family.
Is this what a dad should do?
And.
What Zhao Yu said to Chen yesterday was not wrong!
Those words were all reprimanded by Old Man Zhao in order to maintain the old family, taking the posture of an elder.
Zhao Yu just remembered the reprimand of the elders and said those words to the Chen family!
As a junior, as an eight-year-old child, what can you think? What's wrong with remembering an elder's reprimand? Isn't that how it should be? Isn't that supposed to be rewarded?
But when it came to Old Man Zhao, not only was he wrong, but he also became Zhao Yu's nonsense, and he blamed Zhao Yu.
Is this what a grandfather should say and do?
In an instant, Hu's heart was filled with anger, which was resentment towards Old Man Zhao.
However, Old Man Zhao is an elder after all, and even if the Hu family knocks out his teeth, he has to swallow it in his stomach.
"Shw!"
With a hard snort of the clogged nose, Hu quickly wiped away the tears from his eyes with the back of his hand, and then grabbed a bundle of straw thrown down by Old Man Zhao with each hand, turned around and strode towards his house.
Zhao Yu didn't speak, ran quickly to the pigsty, and also grabbed the straw to keep up with Hu.
However, this straw is a bit heavy, eight straws in a bundle, and a bundle of twenty or thirty catties, which is about the same height as Zhao Yu.
Zhao Yu only took a bundle, and dragged it all the way, following behind Hu.
In front, Old Man Zhao walked very slowly.
When the mother and son passed by Old Man Zhao, they walked by without saying a word and without squinting.
One big and one small, one in front and one behind, one carrying and the other dragging, doubly sad and helpless.
also set off the old man Zhao who was holding his hands behind his back next to him, and he was extremely ruthless.
Behind, a group of watch-watching neighbors shook their heads as they looked at the backs of the three generations of the family.
......
Zhao Yu's thatched house.
After putting the straw in the yard, Hu and Zhao Yu continued to get it.
There were even two bundles of straw that were not thrown down on the upper floor of the pigsty, and Hu climbed up to get them himself.
In the end, the mother and son brought back all the eight bundles of straw that belonged to their own family and stacked them in the courtyard.
Zhao Yongzhuo only knew what happened when Zhao Yu's mother and son took the straw home.
But Zhao Yongzhuo didn't say anything, and he didn't do anything, just sat in the shade of the courtyard and lowered his head to weave a rice sieve.
Zhao Yu was squatting in the shade of a tree to practice calligraphy at this time, and secretly looked up and glanced at Zhao Yongzhuo.
saw Zhao Yongzhuo's lowered head, his eyes were slightly red, and there were tears rolling in his eyes.
But it also starts from this day.
Zhao Yu's family is really the same as the old house, and there is a taste of old and dead dissociation.
Zhao Yongzhuo, who originally had to go to the old mansion every day, rarely passed. It is basically necessary to never take a step.
The people on the other side of the Zhao family's old mansion also seemed to have been ordered, and they didn't come to Zhao Yu's house to make trouble anymore.
Zhao Yu is happy to be pure.
A family of three, very good!
And such a quiet day, three days passed.
On the fourth day, the redness and swelling on Zhao Yongzhuo's feet finally disappeared completely, and he was able to walk normally.
The bruises on his face also dissipated to the point that only some slight marks remained, which was no longer obvious on Zhao Yongzhuo's slightly reddened face.
As soon as he recovered, Zhao Yongzhuo was a little impatient.
The dwindling brown rice in the rice bowl made him a little anxious.
In the afternoon of that day, Zhao Yongzhuo firmly tied together the bamboo products such as dustpans, rice sieves, and dustpans woven during this time, and sharpened the firewood knives.
Seeing this, Zhao Yu knew that Zhao Yongzhuo was going to Changning County.
And Zhao Yu is also ready to seize this opportunity!
