Chapter 90: The Way to Live
Ding Zhuang was very satisfied with his performance.
Lilac said, "I don't eat it, I'll give it to the third brother." ”
Ding Zhuang hurriedly said, "Good grandson, it's right to give chicken legs to my sister, and my lord will reward you for eating one more big meatball." ”
Lilac glanced at her grandfather, who was brainwashing Xiao Zhengtai anytime and anywhere.
At night, Lilac didn't sleep well.
She was thinking about her fate in this life.
fell in the splendid pile, and was blown up by the evil wind, and when he was helpless, he was picked up by his father and mother and brought home.
This fertile land is full of sunshine, and the wind and rain are smooth, nourishing her to grow up happily.
It can be said that this family has wronged any member, but she has never been wronged......
Lilac's nose was sour, and she took a small pillow to the door of the north house.
Knock.
At this time, she felt that she was a six-year-old girl, and she wanted her father and mother to kiss her.
Ding Zhao's voice came, "Xiangxiang, something?" ”
He got up and opened the door.
Lilac crawled on top of him, "I miss my father, I miss my mother, I can't sleep." ”
His voice was a little choked.
Ding Zhao laughed, patted Lilac's little buttocks and hugged the kang.
Zhang felt that Hao must have scared his daughter, and coaxed, "Does her girl have a nightmare?" Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, that evil woman has been arrested, and she won't harm Xiangxiang anymore. ”
Lilac was held in her mother's arms, listened to her hum a familiar lullaby, and sank into a dream.
The next morning, Ding Zhao and Zhang got up quietly and did not wake up Lilac.
Ding Zhuang and Ding Zhao went to the county government to listen to the verdict together with some villagers.
The big house of the Ding family, except for Ding Pandi and Ding Sifu, everyone went.
Originally, Wang was not allowed to go, but Wang insisted on going.
"I want to see with my own eyes that stinky girl with rotten liver and rotten heart being beaten and punished, and I have to kowtow to Lord Qingtian."
She was afraid that Ding Pandi would commit suicide, so she would be beaten with chickens and eggs. Before leaving, he tied Ding Pandi to the pillar and said to Ding Sifu, "Look at her." Her mother has harmed your third brother and you for a lifetime, and her daughter should not think about it in this life. ”
There was a sudden silence in the courtyard.
Ding Pandi sat on the ground, leaning his back against the doorpost. Her hair was disheveled, her clothes were torn and torn, the scars on her face were all over the place, and her eyes were red and swollen, without any lustre.
Ding Sifu scooped half a scoop of water over, but Ding Pandi shook his head when he could afford to have a shell on his mouth.
Ding Sifu put the water scoop into the water tank, walked over and squatted down again, and said, "Sister, can I help you?" ”
He didn't know what the kiln was, but his mother wanted to sell Brother Pan there, and Brother Pan was so scared, it must be the worst place.
Ding Pandi's eyes were not focused, and he muttered, "I won't go there if I die." My brother let me go, and I hanged myself with a rope, even if I helped me. ”
She said so, knowing that Ding Sifu would definitely not let her go.
Ding Sifu said, "Sister is not afraid of death, what are you afraid of?" If you think about it, is there any other way to live? ”
Ding Pandi's eyes turned to Ding Sifu, and he burst into tears again, "Brother, I'm sorry, it was my mother who hurt you." I persuaded her, really, to stop her twice, but the third time she succeeded. That day, my grandmother and my aunt were chatting with people outside the yard, and I was rubbing corn in the yard.
"Suddenly, I heard my brother crying so much that I saw my mother running out of your room. I knew that my mother must have done something bad, and I cried with my brother. I didn't dare to tell the truth, I just begged for milk, saying that my brother must be sick when he cried a lot, and asked the doctor to come and treat you. But the milk was reluctant to pay, saying that it was normal for the milk doll to cry, and scolding me for being lazy and nosy......"
She wept and wept, snot and tears on her face, more miserable than when she was beaten.
Ding Sifu also cried, choked up and said, "I hate the Hao family, but I don't hate my sister, I know that the best thing this family has for me is you." When I was a child, my sister helped me dress, wash my face, and feed me, and did more than my mother did. Sister, while they are not at home, you can go. Like the second brother, go outside to see the world, escape to a place where my father and my mother can't find you, and never come back. ”
If he hadn't been lame, he would have run away from this home with his sister.
Ding Pandi stopped crying and looked at Ding Sifu in a daze, "If you let me go, the uncle and the aunt will beat you to death." ”
Ding Sifu said, "I am their own son, and they will not kill me." The second grandfather is very good and likes me, so I went to beg him to intercede with my grandfather and father. ”
Ding Pandi calmed down, the second grandfather didn't like him, but he always liked the four rich. If the second grandfather wants to protect the four rich, he can protect him.
Her gaze hardened, and she sniffed and said, "If I escape, no matter how hard it is, I will find a way to survive." Not for me alone, but for my brother. I want to earn money to build a house for my younger brother and marry a daughter-in-law, so that my younger brother can have a better life for the rest of his life. In this family, I have only one relative, my younger brother. ”
Ding Si laughed with tears in his eyes, "I'm a man, and I'm a man if I'm lame, I don't need my sister to earn money for me, you just take care of yourself." If you go out and have no money, you will starve to death, so I will borrow some money from Sister Xiang and come back. Sister Xiang is smart, maybe she can come up with some good ideas. ”
As he spoke, he cut the rope with scissors.
Ding Pandi took his hand and asked uncertainly, "Can Xiangxiang help me?" ”
"She's so good that she'll definitely help."
Ding Sifu ran to the second room.
Zhang opened the door and smiled, "Sifu, thank you for helping Lilai." When this is over, my aunt will make you winter clothes. ”
Ding Sifu's clothes were all picked up by a few brothers, they were torn and small, and they were covered with patches.
He smiled, "Thank you, Second Aunt, I'm coming to see Brother Lilai and Sister Xiang." ”
Zhang smiled, "They are talking in the house." ”
Lilac asked Ding Sifu to sit on the kang and took a piece of osmanthus cake for him to eat.
Ding Lilai had already heard how Ding Sifu had helped him. Said gratefully, "Thank you, Sifu, when I get better, I will buy a few strings of sugar gourds in the town for you to eat, they are so sweet." ”
Lilac asked again, "How is Brother Pan?" ”
Ding Lilai snorted, "She was tied up by my mother and said that she was going to sell her to my third brother to marry a daughter-in-law." ”
Ding Xiang knotted, fortunately, grandpa agreed to help.
Seeing Ding Sifu talking, Lilac had a fluttering look in his eyes and guessed that something was wrong with him.
He got up and said, "Go, go to my house, I have something to tell you." ”
The two went out.
Zhang and Sister-in-law Yang closed the door and tied knots in the upper room, and the courtyard was quiet.
Seeing this clean and tidy yard, there are also the gentle words of the elders and the laughter of the juniors...... Ding Sifu's eyes are hot, and home is really different.
Entering the hut of Ding House, Ding Sifu saw that there was no one outside the window, and then said in a low voice, "Sister Xiang, please, help Brother Pan." My mother is going to sell her to the kiln......"
Ding Xiang seriously despised Ding Youshou. He, like Ding Shan, doesn't look bad, but he is the least responsible. How can you take the initiative to sell your daughter, and let someone sell her there.
Lilac said, "I have begged my grandfather to help Brother Pan, and my grandfather has agreed......"
