Wei Aimei turned her head and saw that Ye Daniu's harath was about to fall.

Wei Aimei was suddenly angry.

remembered that in the early years, when Ye Daniu was running business in the town, he secretly got involved with a woman in the town, and at that time, Wei Aimei had just given birth to the boss Ye Datao.

Wei Aimei didn't care about Mrs. Ye and Old Man Ye, clenched her fists, glared, and roared at Ye Da Niu: "Ye Da Niu, are you fucking interesting to Tang Anning?" ”

Ye Daning stiffened his neck and said, "Don't talk nonsense. That's the third family. How could I be so inhumane. ”

After speaking, Ye Daniu raised his hand and wiped the harazi that was about to flow down.

Mrs. Ye was busy playing a round on the side and said: "That's it, Aimei, Da Niu is the father of three children, don't think about it." ”

Yang Hongxia of Ye Erniu's family didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, and while swallowing melon seeds, she arched the fire and said: "It's not the first time that this happened to the eldest brother, mother, it's right for the sister-in-law to knock on the eldest brother." ”

Yang Hongxia is obese and a typical foodie, in this era of lack of food and drink, Yang Hongxia's mouth has not stopped.

At this moment, on the table in front of Yang Hongxia, the melon seed skins had been piled up into a small hill.

She loves to watch the excitement the most, especially the excitement of the eldest brother and sister-in-law's family.

Who let her mother favor the eldest brother and sister-in-law's family, and always give good things to the old family privately, just because her stomach is not angry, she can't give birth to a handle.

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Ye couldn't help glaring at Yang Hongxia fiercely: "Eat, eat, eat, know to eat!" Say less, no one will take you for a dumb one! ”

Yang Hongxia pursed her lips and continued to eat melon seeds.

Ye Erniu, like his daughter-in-law Yang, is also lazy.

Ye Erniu yawned: "Dad, mother, it's all here, it's okay, Hongxia and I will go back to sleep first." ”

Wei Aimei was still angry, and also said: "Dad, mother, Ye Daniu and I also went to sleep." We can't help with the marriage of the third child, and the family has no money. ”

And they dispersed.

Old Man Ye and Mrs. Ye were also ready to sleep.

As soon as Mrs. Ye raised her head, she suddenly looked up and saw a black and thin figure standing at the door, which startled Mrs. Ye, and when she looked at it, it turned out to be Ye Fan.

Ye Fan was gray-faced, and the clothes on his shoulders were also worn out.

Mrs. Ye covered her heart and scolded: "There is no sound at all when you come back, you want to scare the old lady to death!" ”

Old man Ye frowned when he saw his thin black son, stepped forward, and said, "There is a ...... in the kitchen."

Before he finished speaking, he was glared at by Mrs. Ye fiercely: "Shut up!" Eat, eat, eat, know to eat! If you make a mistake, you have to be educated, what you eat! ”

Old man Ye frowned, shook his head and walked away.

Ye Fan didn't touch his stomach and shout hungry as usual, but looked at Mrs. Ye fixedly: "Bride price." Mother, bride price. Marry a daughter-in-law. ”

Mrs. Ye frowned: "What bride price?" There is no money at home. Don't yell at me, get off to bed. ”

Ye Fan didn't leave, and kept saying "bride price" in his mouth.

Mrs. Ye suddenly became angry, turned around and picked up a thick wooden stick at the door and hit Ye Fan: "I'll kill you who can't understand people's words...... Fool who doesn't understand human nature......"

Next door, Zhang Shun's house.

Zhang Shunyu came out of the house wearing a patched and rotten coat, stood under the wall and listened for a while, shook his head and sighed.

Zhang Shunyu's daughter-in-law, Kong Daling, was also woken up by the movement next door, wearing a single coat with rotten patches, and walked over with her neck shrunk.

"Xiuzhen's sister-in-law is beating the third child again?" Kong Daling asked in a low voice.

Zhang Shunyu nodded and sighed: "The third child is really pitiful, he was beaten by his mother since he was a child. During the years he was a soldier, he didn't make less money for his family, and Xiuzhen's sister-in-law treated him like this, I really can't stand it. Even if you make a mistake, you can't hit your child like that. I'll go to the next yard and have a look. ”

Zhang Shunyu also thought that Wu Xiuzhen beat him because Ye Fan was "educated".

"Shunyo!" Kong Daling grabbed her man's arm, "In the middle of the night, aren't you annoying people in the past?" Tomorrow. ”

Zhang Shunyu and Kong Daling stood under the wall for a while, and when they heard the beating and scolding, they stopped and shook their heads and went back to the house.

***

Ye Fan was hit with two sticks on his back, and it hurt hotly.

He sat stupidly in the shed, staring at the dark courtyard in a daze.

This makeshift shed made of grass and a few sticks is his house.

A rotten straw mat was randomly spread on the ground, and a stiff futon and a thin quilt were placed on it, which was the bed where he slept.

Next to the shed was a pigsty with a dirty and thin pig, which had not been cleaned for a long time, and the stench spread from the pigsty to the shed.

"The third child!"

Old man Ye quietly walked to Ye Fan's side and stuffed an egg into his hand.

"Eat and go to sleep." Old man Ye whispered, he didn't dare to stay too long, otherwise he would be suspected by Mrs. Ye, so he hurried back to the house.

Ye Fan pinched the egg and looked at the endless night, very depressed.

He fell on a stiff futon and covered his head with a damp quilt.

Tang Anning's face appeared in front of his eyes again.

Thinking of Tang Anning's face and her warm words, he seemed to see light in the dark night.

The night has become less long.

"Bride price, marriage ......" Ye Fan kept repeating, and fell asleep groggily.

Early the next morning, Zhang Shunyu was about to go out to Ye's house to persuade Mrs. Ye, when he suddenly saw a man in military uniform standing at the door of his house, hesitating.

Now the situation is at a time of instability, and people in the village are often taken away for "re-education".

When Zhang Shunyu saw the military uniform, he thought that he had made some mistake and was going to be arrested and taken to the north slope of the village, so he suddenly became nervous and stared at the strange person.

The man in military uniform hurriedly saluted Zhang Shun: "Comrade, is this Ye Fan's family?" I am Ye Fan's comrade-in-arms, my name is Dai Zhisheng. It has been three years since Comrade Ye Fan left the army, and I happened to be on vacation recently, and I wanted to come and see him. ”

Zhang Shunyu breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out to be Ye Fan's comrade-in-arms.

Dai Zhisheng looks more than ten years older than Ye Fan, with vicissitudes of wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, but his eyes are very bright.

Zhang Shunyu said: "Comrade, Ye Fanhe...... He ......"

Dai Zhisheng's expression suddenly became nervous: "What's wrong with Ye Fan?" ”

Dai Zhisheng knew that Ye Fan had a head injury when he was discharged from the army, and thought that something had happened to Ye Fan.

Zhang Shunyu had no choice but to say: "He accidentally made a mistake." I'm currently receiving re-education on the north slope of the village. ”

Now Dai Zhisheng was even more confused: "Made a mistake? This is even stranger. Comrade Ye Fan has always been a good comrade who abides by discipline and law in the army, is helpful, selfless and dedicated, and is an advanced example for us to learn. ”

Zhang Shunyu sighed: "Comrade Dai, let's go into the house and talk." ”
