Mrs. Zhao
Seeing the people around her pointing at her mother and herself, Zhao Guihua, who had been following behind and kept her head down and didn't speak, covered her face and ran away crying.
Zhao Guihua is the second daughter of Zhao Lao'er, she is eleven years old this year, and she has a weak personality. On weekdays, she was scolded for losing money and goods, and Chen asked her to go east, but she didn't dare to go west.
"Hey, Osmanthus ......" Zhao Guihua ran out with her face covered, and just happened to collide with Zhao Fuling. Zhao Guihua glanced at Zhao Fuling with teary eyes, turned her head and ran in the direction of the Zhao family's courtyard.
"Look, look. What kind of sin has been created? Chen, this good child of Osmanthus has been damaged by you. Grandma Zhao Si next to her clapped her knees with her hands and glared at Chen angrily, so angry that she almost couldn't lift it in one breath.
"Fourth grandma, are you okay?" The old man was too excited, Zhao Lingling hurriedly ran over and reached out to catch the person, and one hand was smooth on her chest.
Grandma Zhao Si and Zhao Fuling's grandmother are concubines and their own family.
"It's Poria girl, are you better, child? The fourth grandmother is fine. Seeing that the person who came was Zhao Fuling, Grandma Zhao Si, who was originally angry, immediately softened her voice.
Because people in ancient times got married relatively early, even the fourth grandmother of the grandmother generation looked like she was only forty or fifty years old. Kind eyebrows and good intentions, it seems that the person is quite good.
Zhao Lingling saw that the old man was relieved, and then raised her head to look around at the surrounding situation.
The rice paddies are full of people, some who get up early to work, and some who come to join in the fun even if they don't work.
Looking at the golden rice field, the original field full of clear rice has been cut in half, and the field is full of rice that has not had time to be bundled.
Zhao Fuling turned her head to look at the woman who was still holding a sickle in her hand in the middle of the field, with high cheekbones, hanging eyes, and a sour and mean appearance, it was Chen.
"Second uncle, I don't know how our family offended you and made you look down on our third room so much." Zhao Fuling, who originally wanted to rush over and slap her twice, held back and changed to a weak and pitiful appearance.
"Second uncle, or is our father and mother gone, do you think we can let others bully us in the third room?" Zhao Fuling bit the tip of her tongue, which made her eyes moist.
The people around saw Zhao Fuling's weak and pitiful appearance, and then thought about the death of several children's parents, lonely, and their sisters and brothers who depended on each other, and they all had sympathy.
"Chen, you are a bad conscience, how can you do it? They're all your nieces and nephews. "It was Zhao Sanye, who had some prestige in the Zhao family, who spoke.
"That's right, as soon as Zhao Laosan left, Su Mu hasn't come back yet. The life of the three sisters and brothers is not easy, how can this second daughter-in-law endure it. The patriarch's son, Zhao Dachuan, couldn't stand it and accused him loudly.
At first, it was just the scolding of the village women, but the Chen family didn't take them seriously at all, and they were used to arguing on weekdays, and there was nothing to be afraid of.
But when she saw that the people who spoke out just now were all prestigious men from the Zhao family, she instantly felt fear in her heart.
"Hey, Poria cocos, the second aunt didn't cut your rice." Seeing that the Lord was coming, and the men with prestige were also talking, she had to find a staircase for herself.
"Then the second aunt, who are you?" Looking at the rice all over the ground, Zhao Lingling didn't believe her nonsense.
"Uh...... Isn't it about to be the autumn harvest, your grandmother is not at home, your parents are gone, and there is no labor force at home, I want to help you with the autumn harvest in advance. Chan smiled.
This is really beautiful, if it weren't for the fact that everyone in the village knew what kind of virtue she was, they would almost believe her, thinking that she was some kind of compassionate bodhisattva.
"Poria, don't believe her, she has a pile of rice at home, where is this to help you."
The aunt in the village saw that Poria was small, and was afraid that she would be deceived by the Chen family, so she hurriedly reminded her.
Hearing this, Chen glanced at the woman viciously.
"Oh, it turns out that the second aunt wants to help us? Why didn't you say hello to me in advance, I almost misunderstood you. This autumn harvest is not in a hurry, and you don't need to get up in the middle of the night to cut. This black light is blinding, and it will not be good if it is injured at that time. ”
"That's right, you have to cut it in the daytime, and if it's dark at night, don't be a thief."
"Haha......"
I don't know which man made a sound, causing the people around him to laugh.
Everyone knows what virtues Chan has. Zhao Fuling said that she didn't say hello to her, she didn't ask if she picked it up, she was stealing, and she came in the middle of the night, this is not stealing, everyone knows it.
Zhao Fuling tugged the corners of her lips slightly, and then looked at Chen with an inexplicable expression, just like an ignorant child.
Being laughed at by so many people, the Chen family, who was as thick-skinned as the city wall, still couldn't hold back and blushed.
"Chen, you shallow-eyed thing, my mother is not at home for a few days, and you are embarrassing me outside." Just when everyone was still laughing, a rough voice came from the end of the field.
When everyone heard the sound, they saw Mrs. Zhao, that is, Zhao Fuling's grandmother, rushing over in a hurry, carrying a broom in her hand.
Mrs. Zhao, surnamed Li, married from Li Jiagou. He has a pungent temperament, and he is a good quarrel in the village.
Some time ago, Li's eldest brother was seriously ill in bed, and when he heard that his life was not long, Li and Mr. Zhao rushed to Lijiagou overnight, and they went for more than ten days, and they only came back last night.
"Mother?" Seeing the visitor, Chen's flushed face suddenly turned blue. This is the awe and fear that Chen has for Li's mother-in-law in his bones.
How can a daughter-in-law not be afraid of her in-laws. Isn't this deductively vivid here at Chen?
During the days when Li and Old Man Zhao were not at home, the usually silent Chen family vented all the grievances they had suffered in the Zhao family over the years, and the object of venting was the children of the fatherless and motherless Zhao Laosan family.
"You shallow-eyed thing, let you come out and be embarrassed." Before Mrs. Zhao's words fell, what followed was the sound of a broom crackling, and the sound fell on Chen's body.
"Mother, stop fighting, I was wrong." In the face of the sudden whipping, Chen was so frightened that he howled again and again, but Mrs. Zhao didn't care about her howl at all, and beat Chen to spin in the field like a spinning top.
"It's time to fight!"
"Well deserved!"
"This kind of person is a nest."
“……”
With the whipping of Mrs. Zhao, the people around her began to help.
After beating for a while, Mrs. Zhao was so tired that she was out of breath, and she saw that her old cheeks were covered with exhaustion. During the time when I wanted to go to Lijiagou, the old lady didn't have a good rest.
"Grandma, don't fight, I don't think the second aunt did it intentionally." Zhao Fuling hurriedly stepped forward to support the Li family.
