Chapter 77 See Grandpa
Compared with Hujia Village in Nanhe Town, Xiashan Village in Zhongyu Town is obviously better. Their terrain is relatively flat, and the surrounding mountains are far away. It is a rare village that has not been affected by the snow disaster.
Each family can just fill their stomachs, and it is impossible to say that they are richer than Hujia Village.
At the entrance of Xiashan Village, is Liu's family.
The yard made of red adobe bricks looks a bit dilapidated because it has not been repaired for a long time. The roof is half tile and half thatch.
On the far left of the yard, there is a short house, and coughing sounds are heard from time to time.
A woman of about thirty years old walked in with a medicine bowl.
Mrs. Liu's mother, Mrs. Qin, was lying inside. She was only forty-eight years old this year. Because of her illness, she looked like a sixty-year-old woman.
"Mother, it's time to drink the medicine." Mrs. Yang, the eldest daughter-in-law, softly awakened Mrs. Qin.
Qin Shi sighed when he saw the medicine: "Didn't I tell you to stop going to get medicine? Why waste that money."
"Mother, what did you say, the doctor said that your disease can be cured, and you will be fine in a few months."
"Where did our family get so much money? We have to support them for a few more months. I'm afraid that if we support them for a few more days, the family will be devastated by me. Leave me alone, stay for two more days and you will be fine."
After , she coughed again.
Mrs. Yang still respected her mother-in-law very much, and coaxed her a few words in a low voice. When Mrs. Qin had finished drinking the medicine, she took the medicine bowl away.
As soon as he walked to the door, he heard Qin shi ask, "Is little sister back yet?"
"No."
"She is completely blaming me!" Qin Shi heard this, but couldn't help crying, cried twice, wiped the tears again, and asked, "Did Dashi go to Hujia Village to see it? What's up with their village?"
They heard before that snow collapsed in several villages, and they didn't know what Hujia Village was like.
Hujia Village is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and it is very prone to snow collapse.
It’s just that they are busy and have no time to watch.
Qin Shi remembered the youngest daughter who married into Hujia Village, and from time to time urged the family to check the situation.
Everyone was reluctant to go, just dragged their lips. You can't go empty-handed, but there's nothing left at home.
"Look at it! What are you looking at? She wants to marry such a poor girl herself, so you can't think of her as dead?!" As soon as the old man returned home, he heard the old wife's words, and immediately frowned, walked into the house, Start yelling loudly.
Yang was most afraid of this loud father-in-law, so he said hello, and hurried away.
Qin said in a low voice, "Wan'er agreed to that marriage for our family's sake. It's been three years now, why do you keep holding on to that?"
"She's been full of filial piety. Lao Tzu was scolded in the spine for three years, and he said that he was selling a girl for glory, bah! How much glory is ten catties of grain?" Speaking of this, the old man Liu was angry.
Three years ago, their family was struggling. He had another serious illness, and no one was in charge of the family. When the matchmaker said that someone was willing to give ten catties of food, his youngest daughter immediately married herself with tears in her eyes.
Wait for him to get better and ask again, good guy, what kind of good family is that?
The poorest village in Quannanhe Town! The poorest house in the whole village!
Not only that, everyone said that the man had many sons, and he used to beat his daughter-in-law. There was also a vicious mother-in-law who killed several daughters-in-law.
His daughter is married to such a family, how can it be okay?
This is not to say, anyway, the year before last came back, although thin, it was nothing.
Just asked if she had any children, and she hesitated.
Qin thought that her daughter had suffered a great grievance, and was afraid that she would not be able to stand up when she returned to her husband's house. When Liu secretly asked her to borrow money, she took the initiative to give the little half of the family's money to go out.
That is a whole tael of silver!
Thinking of this, Old Man Liu felt a chest pain.
"I borrowed the money and never came here again. Even if I raised a white-eyed wolf, I'm afraid I would know to come back and take a look!" Liu Laohan spat on the ground and stared at Qin Shi with a vicious voice, "If you repeat that to Laozi again Mourning Gate Star, I will throw you into the pond to save trouble!"
Qin's tears rolled down again: "That's your daughter, how can you say that to her..."
said, she clutched her chest and coughed violently.
"I have three daughters, is I short of daughters? I tell you the truth, their Hujia Village was all buried and all dead! I can't get my money back, grass!"
The old man Liu was furious, kicked over the debris placed at the door, and the crackling sound suddenly sounded.
When shi Qin heard "all dead", her pupils widened, but the furious husband in front of her made her dare not ask any further questions.
When old man Liu walked out of the hut, suddenly there was a little boy from the village lying on the doorstep of their house.
"What are you looking at?! Go away!" Old man Liu shouted violently.
The little boy sucked his nose and shrank his neck: "Grandpa Liu Er, you have a guest at your house!"
After saying that, he ran away quickly.
Mother also, scared him to death!
I will never come to Grandpa Liu Er's house again, he is more scary than the angry old donkey at the village!
The old man Liu scolded: "The family is so poor, come here as a fart guest!"
stretched his neck toward the door, and from a distance, he saw someone walking towards the field ridge, and a few children surrounded them, but they couldn't see who it was.
The old man Liu walked to the door and moved his feet back, pulling his neck and shouting: "Liu Dashi, get out for Laozi, the cold pot is cold, where is Laozi's tea?!"
It is said to be tea, but it is just a few bushes of mint growing in front of the house, and the leaves are picked and boiled.
Taking a sip in winter is like drinking a mouthful of wind.
Liu Dashi was still sorting out the pigsty. Hearing this, he got busy.
Yang hurriedly pushed him back: "You are busy with your work, and I will boil the water. Father-in-law is not happy now, so don't join him."
The two daughters-in-law in the family have figured out the temper of the father-in-law. He is a gunnery, and he can't touch anything.
You will bomb your old wives, your sons and daughters, but never your daughters-in-law.
As soon as Mr. Yang turned up the hot water, he heard a commotion outside.
"Grandpa Liu Er! Grandpa Liu Er, you have a guest at your house!"
"There is a nice little sister!"
"The dog eggs, the dog leftovers, and the dog heads are coming out soon, and there are guests in your house!"
After a while, many children gathered in front of Lao Liu's house.
Xiao Ayu had already come down to walk by himself, but was tired from walking, and was carried away by Liu.
Before she got to her grandmother's house, she had already slept several times.
Because it was too noisy, she was woken up after all.
Old man Liu had already seen from a distance that it was his impoverished daughter who had returned.
He walked around the house a few times until they finally reached the door.
yelled: "You still know how to come back?!"
The children who were watching the lively around were roared by these words, and they all scattered.
There is only a little girl doll rubbing her eyes, her eyes are sleepy, and her eyes are like fields with water closed, and they are barking.
The little girl was put down from Liu's arms, the small one, only Wang Chuanman's calf was high.
She approached Old Man Liu step by step, not at all afraid of him, but looked at him curiously with her little face raised.
"Grandpa, are you A-Niang's father?" Xiao Ayu blinked, patted her little chest with her small hands, and said what she had practiced many times in her heart, "Grandpa, hello, I'm A-Niang. Ayu!"
