In the cold winter, the dripping water turns into ice.

Qingshan Village, as its name suggests, lives by the mountains. Dozens of families are in groups of three or five, scattered at the foot of the mountain.

It had just snowed a goose feather and was idle in winter, and the villagers were nesting in the house to bake the fire, and the village was quiet and very quiet.

There was a burst of scolding from the Chi family.

"There is a cheap girl who has no mother's education, you don't eat at home, or do you wear less? Do you want your hands and feet to be so unclean, and you steal money at a young age? Are you going to steal men in the future? Why did the Chi family come up with such a shameless slut as you! ”

A medium-sized, plump woman was holding a foot-long kang broom and beating a young girl.

The girl was fourteen or fifteen years old, slender and thin, crying and dodging and crying: "Tao'er is sick like that, she has been asleep for three days, and her forehead is very hot. Please, mother, invite her to see her....."

The woman's face was square and broad, her eyebrows and eyes were raised, the corners of her mouth drooped, and she looked frightening when her face was expressionless. At this moment, when he heard this, he pursed his lips, and said in a strange manner: "Yo, I think I am the eldest lady of Jin Zun and Yugui, and I still invite Lang Zhong?" How much money does the family have for her Langzhong? It's just a cheap girl! Squinting at the man who was squatting at the door and smoking a dry cigarette, he didn't say a word: "Yes, Chi Xing wants to invite your second daughter to Langzhong, you can do it." Anyway, I, Lu Fenglian, am the stepmother, and I can't care about the daughter of the first dead ghost! ”

Chi Changhai took a few puffs of cigarette and sighed: "Or, invite Lilangzhong ....."

Lu's eyebrows immediately rose: "Wang'er and the Huzi Academy's bundles haven't been handed over yet!" You invited Lang Zhong, what will he take to school after the year? ”

A teenage and a half-year-old boy sitting on the kang peeling peanuts and eating them immediately shouted, "Dad, I want to go to school!" I still have to take the champion exam to earn my mother's life! ”

followed by a seven-year-old boy who immediately shouted: "I also want to go to school with my eldest brother!" ”

Chi Changhai stopped talking.

Wang'er glanced at Chi Xing proudly, and pinched the peanut shell more and more crisply.

Chi Xing's face was full of tears, and she knelt down and kowtowed to the woman: "Mother, please, just ask Lang Zhong to take a look at Tao'er..... it was you who asked her to go fishing, and she fell into the ice hole, it's been three days and three nights, and her forehead is burning so scary, I'm afraid she won't be able to survive tonight......"

Lu Shi raised his eyebrows, and reached out to pinch Chi Xing's ears: "Why did I let her go fishing?" Ming'er, are you going to shout all over the village again, I am treating you harshly? ”

Chi Xing's ears were torn hot and painful, but she didn't dare to dodge, only wailed and begged.

Lu Shi felt bored, snorted in his nose, lost his hand and said coldly: "If you want to blame, blame your father, no money!" ”

Chi Xing gritted her teeth: "Mother, I am willing to marry the Wang family, as long as you ask for a doctor for Tao'er....."

Lu's eyes lit up: "That's what you said!" I will go to the Wang family tomorrow and tell the Wang family that we will get married in the next year! ”

Chi Xing nodded desperately, and looked at Lu Shi again.

Lu Shi suddenly had a smile on his face: "Yes, Chi Changhai, go and invite Li Langzhong!" ”

In recent years, the wind and rain have been smooth, and the country and the people are safe. Qingshan Village is also close to the mountains and water, the land is fertile, and the life in the village is quite passable. The Chi family is considered a medium-sized family, and the original Chi Changhai's wife, Qin, is a well-known capable and virtuous person in Shili and Eight Villages, who is diligent and skillful, not to mention, and also recognizes a few words with his father, who is a teacher. If Mr. Qin hadn't gone early, leaving a girl from the Qin family without a backbone, he wouldn't have married into the Chi family hastily because Chi Changhai came to help bury Mr. Lin and helped to do some hard work every day.

Qin has ink in his stomach, and the patterns he comes up with are very different, and the big girls and little daughters-in-law like it. So for three days, there were people who married daughters-in-law and daughters-in-law to ask the Qin family to help embroider some wedding clothes, hijabs, handkerchiefs and the like, plus Chi Changhai was good at hunting, and every year there were some good skins sold to the rich families in the town, and slowly saved some family assets, and set up three bright big tile houses, according to the practice of the north, the middle hall is the dining hall for the stove house and eating, the east head of the large room is the couple's bedroom and living room, and the west head of the small room for the daughter to live.

But there are unforeseen circumstances, less than four years after the Qin family gave birth to their second daughter Chi Tao, I don't know what disease she had, her eyes were not as good as day by day, and then she could only see a vague shadow, and she couldn't embroider anymore.

It stands to reason that the work at home can still be done, and life is not unbearable. But when Chi Changhai was hunting in the mountains, he rescued the widow in the former village and Lu Fenglian, who couldn't get up and down the mountain. Since then, Lu Fenglian has to go to Chi's house if she has nothing to do, she only said thank you Brother Chi, and when she saw the sky, she accompanied the Qin family to talk and laugh, and when she saw that Qin's eyes were not good, she flew a flattering look to Chi Changhai when she was free, or deliberately squeezed in front of Chi Changhai. Although Lu Fenglian does not have her own mother-in-law, she has a plump figure, likes to dress up, and has a wild charm, which makes Chi Changhai feel like there is a fire burning in her heart.

After that, Chi Changhai didn't care so much about the Qin family.
