Chapter 61 Snow Ball

"Go back, maybe I'll be back by noon." Lin Jiale got into the car and quickly disappeared into the thick fog.

It wasn't that he walked fast, it was that the fog was too thick.

Fang Xiaocao was a little worried, so she didn't make any clothes this morning. She made all the clothes the family will wear for the New Year, and now only Lin Chunnong's is missing.

Nowadays, the clothes that little girls wear still need a lot of thought.

Because the children were all at home, Fang Xiaocao chopped the meat stuffing and took his son and daughter to fry the meatballs together.

When Lin Jiale left, he said he would come back at noon, but he didn't come back when it was almost dusk.

Fang Xiaocao went out to watch it several times, so she chatted with a woman who went into the mountains to collect firewood for a while, and then she realized that during the Chinese New Year, there will be a fundraising for the dragon and lion dance team here, and it will be lively during the Lantern Festival.

Not long after the woman left, Lin Jiale appeared at the entrance of the village driving a car.

After arriving home, Fang Xiaocao asked him: "Didn't you say you would come back early? Why did you come back now?"

Lin Jiale moved a bamboo basket from the car, and motioned to the house, "Go into the house and talk."

Lin Chunnong was in his brother's laboratory when he heard his father's voice outside, so he rushed out. Lin Qiumo looked at the powders that were undergoing chemical reactions in the containers on the table, and followed them out.

Lin Chunxing was doing another experiment next to him, this one was just to amuse his younger sister. Seeing this, he felt that Lin Qiumo was quite reliable and didn't ignore his sister because of these things.

Lin Chunxing knew very well that Lin Qiumo seemed to be very interested in these things that could cause lethality. Regardless of his young age, in terms of heart, his sister might not be as much as him.

Putting a small cover over the crackling powder that had no smell, Lin Chunxing turned around and continued to work on himself.

There are snow sugar balls in the bamboo basket, as well as sesame balls, sugar sticks, clay figurines, dolls, and a pile of gauze flowers, all of which Lin Chunnong likes very much. She squatted by the bamboo basket and brought her father back soon. Turned over.

"Qiumo, what do you want to eat?" Lin Chunnong asked Lin Qiumo who hadn't come in the yard.

Lin Qiumo shook his head, expressing that he didn't want anything.

Lin Chunnong knew he shouldn't ask, so he ran out with two snow sugar balls.

In the room, Lin Jiale and Fang Xiaocao were talking in a low voice, "Brother wants to divorce his wife, I arrived at the county seat in the middle of noon, and the clan elders from your Fang family are all in the Lin family."

A few days ago, Fang Xiaocao went to her mother's house in Tonghua Town, but she didn't hear any news. At that time, her uncle went to her house to talk with a high-spirited expression on her face. It didn't look like her daughter was about to be divorced.

In other words, Lin Jiaju wanted to divorce his wife, which happened only two days ago.

"Why?" Fang Xiaocao was curious. Although that cousin is not very popular, it is not too late to divorce her wife.

"A few days ago, I went to Fuyang County. When I came back, didn't I tell you that my elder brother took in another younger one?" Lin Jiale felt wronged when he mentioned this. At that time, his wife satirized him, saying that he has the ability to marry a concubine but cannot. , Are you envious or something?

Fang Xiaocao was speechless, and said, "How can you take things too slowly?"

Lin Jiale said in detail: "It's just that the eldest brother is very concerned about this little one. Before, my mother didn't keep my sister-in-law at home and let her live with my eldest brother in Fuyang County, but within two months my eldest brother sent my sister-in-law for another reason. Back home. The Fang family has been talking about this matter, saying that the eldest brother favors his concubine and kills his wife."

"Then what is it that made your elder brother so angry that he wanted to divorce his wife?" Fang Xiaocao asked.

"Isn't it because of that aunt, I heard that she is pregnant, she is in her early four months, and the Chinese New Year is about to come. This sister-in-law went to Fuyang to pick up her mother and Yuan'er. Maybe she was angry when she saw that aunt's words offended her. Hi, with a slap, the person fell and the child was gone.”

"It's a boy, and my eldest brother is very angry. And I heard from my mother that the injury is not serious, and I won't be able to have another child in the future."

After listening, Fang Xiaocao had nothing to say. This kind of system where a man can marry several women is the biggest factor of social instability.

After a while, she said: "Your family doesn't want a male baby, but why does a male baby become precious?"

After all, no matter how bad Fang Xiaocao and Fang Yunxia's relationship was, she was more inclined to Fang Yunxia in this matter.

Don't say that she is cruel, and don't say that concubines are legal in this era. Unlike the mistress who will be condemned in later generations, Fang Xiaocao just thinks that if a woman voluntarily becomes a concubine, she will be affected by any kind of abuse she encounters in the future. Nothing to sympathize with.

Lin Jiale touched his nose, and whispered: "Mother told us to go back to the old house in these two days, and celebrate the New Year there."

Fang Xiaocao looked at him: "You agreed?"

When the Lin family is in chaos, what should they be asked to do?
Besides, it's not easy for my husband to take care of the affairs in the elder brother's room.

"No," Lin Jiale said, "Everything is ready at home, I told my mother to have a reunion dinner on the [-]th day."

This is as it should be, Fang Xiaocao has nothing to disagree with.

But that family has a "loving grass" like Lin Yuan'er, she will never let her daughter live in the old Lin family's house in the future, even if the family has been divided, she doesn't want her daughter to go to someone who might be detrimental to her daughter close.

After the couple finished talking, they saw two children sitting in a row on the threshold in front of the main room, each holding a snowball in his hand and gnawing on it.

The snow sugar ball tastes similar to sesame candy, but it is sweeter and crisper. Lin Chunnong has liked it since the first time he ate it.

Fang Xiaocao was worried that her daughter would eat her teeth badly, so she had been taking care of her all the time, and now she stared, "Why are you eating sugar again? No one will treat your teeth if they are broken."

Lin Chunnong looked at his father, isn't his mother a little angry?

Lin Jiale hurriedly laughed and said, "Our nieces don't eat candy very often, we just eat a piece once in a while, and our teeth won't break." Quickly changed the subject, "How about eating meatball soup tonight? Try your mother's fried meatballs."

Lin Chunnong agreed, and then, holding the snowball, he and Lin Qiumo ran to his brother's laboratory again.

Lin Qiumo glanced out and said, "Your mother is angry."

Lin Chunnong waved his hand, "My mother is a little angry, didn't you hear what they said just now? My uncle is going to divorce my uncle because of a concubine."

"This matter is indeed not the work of a gentleman," Lin Qiumo said.

Seeing his serious little face, Lin Chunnong couldn't help laughing and said: "At the end of autumn, when you study, you look more like a little old man than before. Don't gentlemen divorce their wives?"

Lin Qiumo nodded and said: "A true gentleman will not do anything against human feelings and morality."

Lin Chunnong reached out to rub his head, but when he raised his hand, he realized that his arms were too short.

Wang!
The sound of Canine Fang sounded at her feet, and Lin Chunnong hurriedly knelt down to touch its head, but Canine Fang moved its little nose, reaching for the snow sugar ball in her other hand.
