Chapter 5: The Withered Grandmother

The sun was shining, Zhenxiang took the child out to bask in the sun, and the work in her hands did not stop.

Double-sided embroidery, the Yunjin store in the town has a good pattern, where can the excellent women of the female red go to pick up some single products.

"Sister, look, this is a shaking drum made by grandpa." Wen Zhuo placed a small rattle in the palm of her hand and taught her to shake it to make a clanging sound.

There is also a woodcarved foal, which Enron can't put down, and these two gadgets are very exquisitely made.

It has not been painted, only a simple wood grain, which is smooth and does not prickly the hand, exuding the fragrance of pine wood.

"Zhuo Bao, don't go to see grandma tomorrow." Zhenxiang wants to take her son with her, she hasn't seen her mother for a long time, and an honest person like her is now sick, and her brother won't take care of her, how sad her life is.

"I want to go, I haven't seen my grandmother for a long time, she hasn't seen my sister, let's bring my sister too."

Zhenxiang was still afraid that Zhuo Bao would not want to go last time, but what should she take with her?

Looking at the house that had just been built, most of the family's silver had been used, and the rest was reserved for the winter rations.

The sister-in-law had already calculated the penny in half and used it, Zhenxiang took out a muslin dumpling, uncovered it layer by layer, and a jade earring with insufficient color added a bit of bright color in the sun.

For the first time in the two months since she was born, An Ran followed her mother out of the house, and this time they were going to Lijia Village, which was more than 20 kilometers away from their village, and it was a mountain col.

Originally, Wang Yonglin was going to follow them, but unfortunately the repair work in the town was high, and there would be no more after this month or two.

Li Zhenxiang asked her son to hide a few boiled eggs, and the two children of her brother's family saw it and shouted to eat it.

The sky was still slightly bright, so Wang Yonglin sent them to the intersection and handed over the responsibility of protecting them to Wang Wenzhuo.

An Ran blushed and yawned, she knew that her mother was tired and sweaty and didn't want to rest a few times, and she was still quite worried about her mother.

As far as the cheap uncle looks, he also knows that his family is not very good, if he can come back well, it will be fine, maybe he will have to be stripped of his skin before he can leave.

Lijia Village looks a little backward from where they live, and the houses that were originally collapsed and washed away have not yet been built, and several of them are straw huts.

If he hadn't met a few people, An Ran would have thought that this was an uninhabited village in the wilderness, especially the coffin board that was washed out.

I don't know who his descendants are, and the ancestors have been rushed out.

Descending a long slope, two children ran in front of him, unkempt and unkempt.

"Little aunt, it's little aunt." The two children surrounded Li Zhenxiang, and two black hands pulled the corners of their clothes.

Wang Wenzhuo pulled their hands away and stood in front to protect his mother and sister.

"Liu Bao, where's grandma?" Li Zhenxiang didn't see the home she was familiar with before, only the remnants of the wooden shelf and pestle there.

The two children joyfully led them to a hillside with a hole the size of an inch, and it was so dark that it seemed that no light could penetrate.

Before she got closer, Li Zhenxiang's eyes were red, this is the cellar where her family used to bury sweet potatoes, it was black and small.

Before entering the inside, a smell of urine erosion came to the face, and people couldn't help retching.

"Grandma, grandma, little aunt is here." The two children were rarely happy, because every time the little aunt came, they would bring good food.

"Mother!" Li Zhenxiang saw the old man like a withered tree at a glance.

The dim eyes, the gray hair, and the sunken cheeks were like a withered old corpse, and when he heard a familiar sound, his body trembled violently and turned his head.

"Ah~fragrant...", a dry call showed excitement.

Li Zhenxiang didn't expect her mother, who was originally in good health, to be so distressed, she was unfilial, and thought that her mother had alienated her over the years.

Then An Ran felt the touch of a pair of hands, and carefully touched her forehead.

An Ran knew that this was her grandmother in this world, and it was estimated that the deadline was approaching.

The old man's lips were chapped and the skin was open, and he couldn't speak well, and his hands and feet were like burning sticks, and only a layer of skin hung on them.

Wang Wenzhuo opened the bamboo bucket, peeled an egg and fed it to the old man's mouth, his grandmother liked him the most, and when he came, he would always give him the snacks that had been hidden for a long time quietly.

The two children swallowed their saliva when they saw the round egg, staring directly at the white egg.

Isn't this eggshell something to lick!

"Brother, brother, I'm so hungry."

The little girl shook the boy's hand, her father had been missing for a few days, and she wanted to eat.

"What for! Come back! ”

A pair of jet-black hands snatched Wang Wenzhuo's bag, and he saw that the eggs were taken out of it.

In the blink of an eye, the boy snatched the bag and ran out quickly, barefoot and not afraid of poks on the ground.

Li Zhenxiang grabbed her son who was about to chase him out, and shook her head, the two children of the third brother are also pitiful, and they don't know how long they haven't eaten.

If your own children become like this, their hearts will ache to death, and motherless children are like weeds.

The old man took his daughter's hand and shook her head, she didn't eat the egg, she knew she was dying, poor two children, last night she heard them eating weed roots.

Thinking that she had three daughters and a son in her life, she didn't expect that in the end it was the youngest daughter who gave her the last ride, she regretted it, she didn't teach the three babies well, she was sorry for this family.

The excitement was full of tears, and the spirit was actually better, and he could lie down half-ly.

I don't know why Enron always felt that the pupils were wrong, as if they were returning to the light.

The old man pointed to the mouth of the cellar with his finger, then shook Li Zhenxiang's hand and shook it, whimpering twice in his mouth.

No matter how stupid Li Zhenxiang is, she knows that her mother wants her to take care of these two children in the future, and it is more or less the blood of their family.

The third brother is not a good father, nor is he a good husband and son, and these two children will be sad in the future.

But how much ability does she have, she also has her own small family, Zhuo Bao and Fu Bao are her hearts.

An Ran was also a little depressed when she saw such a scene, the little woman holding her had great strength, you see how thin her shoulders were.

It didn't take long for Li San to come back with a swing and kick his daughter who was hiding aside.

It can be seen that Li San is in a very bad mood, because he has been arguing with the eldest sister for a long time today, and he was beaten and thrown out.

"You still know to come back." Li San's tone was obviously yin and yang, since these women got married, the family relied on him alone, leaving some useless old and young, all open their mouths to him to support.

Li Zhenxiang looked at him fearlessly, and her lips trembled: "My mother is gone." ”

Li San thought it was a big deal, and laughed cruelly: "It's not all your fault, this is not the result you expect, if you die, you will die, and it will be bad." ”

"You bastard, do you still have a conscience, your mother is the most protective of you, you actually said such a thing." Li Zhenxiang's body trembled, and she beat Li Sanlai.

"Get out! The young cat cries and the mouse is fake compassion, what face do you have to say Lao Tzu, there is no place for you to settle here.

You are all married outsiders and live a good life in your husband's family, where do you think of me as a brother? ”

Li San's eyes were full of scarlet, as if he was about to raise his fist and smash it in the next second.

Wang Wenzhuo grabbed his mother, they better go back to find their father first, their mother will suffer.
