The tiled house is low, with walls on both sides, and the main entrance is an old wooden door, which has been repainted with red paint because of the approaching New Year.

In the courtyard was a busy woman, forty years old, grinding a pot of soy milk, every movement of her arms would make her already towering breasts shake up and down, even if she was wearing a very tight linen clothes, she still couldn't hide the breath of her chest.

There was only one woman in the courtyard, and she was busy muttering to herself.

"Dead ghosts, they all blame you for leaving early, look at what your mother-in-law has tired, other people's families are all men painting and pasting Spring Festival couplets, but now this matter has all fallen on the head of the old lady alone, ouch, but I'm tired to death." ”

"Yesterday, Zhang Mazi next door came to secretly knock on the door of the old lady again, and was scolded by the old lady for a bloody head, but the guy who gave birth to a son without fart and eyes also scolded the old lady, saying that the old lady was a duck who died of drought, so he began to wrinkle his skin at the age of forty, saying that he didn't mind helping the old lady moisturize and moisturize, I bah, the old lady just found a rolling pin by herself and disdained him cheaply. ”

"Dead ghost, gossip has never stopped since you left, people say that there are many rights and wrongs in front of the widow's door, this is right and wrong, whether you do it or not, others think you have done it, sometimes the old lady really wants to put her heart down, let these gossips sit down once, so as not to suffer these infamy in vain. ”

"But then I thought about it, if I really did it, what face would I have to face our daughter? Besides, I won't have the face to see you in the future, right?"

"You don't want to, sometimes I really want to, especially on those sleepless nights, but these are not a big deal. The old lady can solve the things by herself and don't need others, the old lady is worried about the peach blossom child, she has the same temperament as me, to be strong, so good, not good, where is the daughter's family to live as my shrew? But you can rest assured that I have calculated, I can save money by selling rouge for another two years, and I will also find a good family for her, not to be rich and expensive, but to be plain. ”

"As for me, when Peach Blossom gets married in the future, I won't be a burden to her, I can live if I can, and if I can't live, I will find a place to hang myself, this life is hard enough, but poor Peach Blossom, this child will not have a relative in the world in the future. ”

"Don't, Sister Jiang, what a pity to die? That's not a tyrannical thing, right?"

The head of a pockmarked man suddenly poked into the closed gate of the small courtyard.

The woman almost subconsciously wanted to splash a scoop of soy milk, glared and said angrily: "Zhang Mazi, what do you want to do?"

The man nicknamed Zhang Mazi was thin, climbed up to the door like a dog, first leaned into the yard on one leg, and then stepped on the other leg, and was about to let go and jump off the door when he suddenly felt a pain in his buttocks like a fire, Zhang Mazi subconsciously put down one hand to cover his buttocks, and the other hand could not support his body, and the whole person fell to the green bricks of the small courtyard with a pop, and grinned in pain.

The woman who was carrying a burning stick in her hand was about to pull it over, Zhang Mazi hurriedly stretched out her hands in front of her face and said quickly: "Don't, don't, big sister." ”

"Fuck you, don't open your mouth to talk nonsense to my mother, who is your eldest sister?"

"Okay, okay, I won't say it, can't I?" Zhang Mazi, who was sitting on the ground, was on the top of his head, with the mountain blocking the woman's neck, and subconsciously shaved the left side of the crotch to the right, and said: "Didn't I just hear some gossip and came to tell you." ”

"What's the grapevine?'s something you can't come in through the door. Are you going to let the old lady be poked in the back in the back?" the woman raised the burning stick and started again.

Zhang Mazi hurriedly supported his body with both hands and quickly took a few steps back, and when he saw that the woman didn't really want to start, but just made a show, he realized that he was foreign again.

The woman laughed.

Zhang Mazi said helplessly: "I want to come in through the main entrance, when did you open the door?"

"Okay, if you have something to say, let it go, if you have a fart, get out of here. ”

"Well, can't you pour me a bowl of water to drink first? This is something to do with peach blossoms. ”

As soon as the woman heard the word peach, her smile froze instantly.

Zhang Mazi saw that the situation was not good, where did he dare to make too many demands? He was already a little weak, and when his wife was not dead, he was chased by his wife with a feather duster.

Zhang Mazi quickly told the woman what was happening in the market.

When the woman heard this, she really exploded, and said angrily: "Okay, this group of sluts actually bullied the old lady's daughter when the old lady was away, and see that the old lady didn't pick up a layer of their skin today." ”

The more you gasp, the more choppy it gets. Zhang Mazi, who has not had the joy of fish and water for a long time, is about to pop out his eyes.

Zhang Mazi said with a contemplative face: "Do you want to help?"

The woman snorted coldly: "Help scold those sluts? Do you dare? Or do you just get started? Look at you like this, can you hold one of those stinky women's thighs?"

Zhang Mazi is full of black lines.

If you think about it, it's really that reasonable.

But at the moment there are not many opportunities for this kind of great hospitality, he Zhang Mazi has already coveted the woman, not to mention that he often dreams of women when he dreams at night, that is, when the woman takes a bath, Zhang Mazi listens to the sound of water splashing and thinks about it.

Zhang Mazi sighed and said: "It's really not good, I'll ask my cousin who is on an errand in the yamen to help, and I can also control the town at the worst." ”

The woman sneered: "Forget it, don't think that the old lady doesn't know what kind of heart you have, the old lady will tell you directly today, dead your heart, the old lady just uses the rolling pin herself and doesn't need you to help, and, don't always mention your cousin on an errand in front of the old lady, if the old lady is not mistaken, last time your own mother-in-law held a funeral and asked your cousin to help find a suitable place to bury, your cousin ate and drank for nothing, and at the end of the day, he also shared a lot of gift money with you, right?"

Zhang Mazi was indignant.

The woman departed in a rage.

Zhang Mazi couldn't help but look at a rolling pin placed next to the grinding plate, and subconsciously touched the crotch of his pants, with a contemplative expression.

Not long after the woman left, she returned.

It's just that this time there is an extra peach blossom carrying a large bag of rouge gouache next to him.

The woman's angry face had turned into a smile, and she said to her daughter like flattery: "Girl, don't worry, that is, my mother has been busy with the Spring Festival in the past two days, and I don't have time to go to the market. ”

"My mother can see it, and these girls think you're a bully, but it's my mother, and they may not dare to borrow ten of their guts. ”

"Alright, don't say it. ”

Putting a pack of rouge on the table in the room, Peach Blossom didn't look at Zhang Mazi who was full of sneers from beginning to end, but just said coldly: "Have I seen this situation rarely? They said that we are not just once or twice? It's just that I've been getting bolder and bolder lately." ”

The woman hurriedly laughed.

"Yes, yes, but my mother promises you that as long as my mother is there in the future, I will never let you be bullied. ”

Then the hustle begins.

Seeing that the mother and daughter were busy, they didn't care about themselves at all, and Zhang Mazi had to leave in a huff.

Although he Zhang Mazi likes women, he will not make any moves in front of Peach Blossom.

Although some of them really like it, Zhang Mazi still wants to find an old wife to rely on each other and support each other for the rest of their lives.

The drunken gold fans in the capital seem to be incompatible with the place where the people have lived for generations, and the most prosperous side of the capital has many more nights and nights, spending a lot of money, but it is far less than the joy of ordinary people's families in the capital.

Dinner was steaming dumplings.

Compared with the mother and daughter talking and laughing here, Zhang Mazi's house on the other side of the wall seems much more deserted.

Zhang Mazi cooked a bowl of pickled noodles and lay on the bed early.

He has no children under his knees, his wife left a few years ago, most of his relatives are rich and noble, and there is a way to be poor in the downtown and no one asks, it is Zhang Mazi.

I have also heard that relatives have bought a house in which place after the development, or opened a shop, when Zhang Mazi first received the invitation, he always held the heart of a person to ascend to heaven to join in a lively, and the bride price prepared was enough.

As for himself, after a hasty meal, although the relatives did not explicitly say that they were picking up customers, they seemed particularly out of place compared to the hospitality of other rich families.

It's okay once or twice, but after three or four times, Zhang Mazi gradually stopped going.

At night, Zhang Mazi lay on the bed tossing and turning, thinking about the life he had gone through, and unconsciously burst into tears.

"Knock knock. ”

There was a sudden knock on the door outside the house, from outside the courtyard.

Maybe it's a relative who can't beat the eight poles of the family who wants to send an invitation to himself, and eighty percent is the dead father in the family, or the dead pig and dog in the family want to make wine, Zhang Mazi, who has long hated this, said angrily: "No one, no one is there." ”

But the knocking on the door didn't stop.

Zhang Mazi was distraught and went out of the room wearing a pair of pants and walked to the courtyard door in the cold wind.

"It's all said that no one, what are you knocking? Deaf isn't it?"

The courtyard door was rudely opened by Zhang Mazi, and in the cold wind, I saw a woman with a plate of steaming dumplings in her hand with a cold face.

After seeing Zhang Mazi, who was wearing only one pair of pants, he glared at Zhang Mazi's crotch.

"What can you compare to my rolling pin?"

Zhang Mazi froze instantly, and didn't even have time to think about whether he was comparable to a rolling pin, or a woman's mind.

"This ...... It's ......"

"Look at you alone, it's almost the New Year, Peach Blossom asked me to send you a plate of dumplings, but the ugly words are ahead, eat the dumplings wrapped by the old lady, and dare to climb the door of the old lady's house in the future, believe it or not, the old lady broke your three legs. ”

Zhang Mazi didn't even do anything to block his clothes from his crotch for a moment, but quickly turned his head away, pretended to blow his nose, and brushed away the salty things that flowed down from his eyes.

In the biting cold wind, Zhang Mazi took the plate in the woman's hand and grinned: "It's cold, big sister, people are old, their health is not good, and they have diarrhea after eating." ”

"It's just you. ”

The woman glared at Zhang Mazi fiercely.

"Come and eat together, I'll keep the door for you, don't forget to put your pants on, it's enough for the old lady to laugh at you, don't let the old lady's daughter laugh at you too." ”

"Okay. ”

Zhang Mazi, who watched the woman leave, shrugged his nose.

"Big sister, I'll be here soon. ”
