Rebirth of Rural Literary Life

Chapter 168 The world is hot and cold

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, it was completely dark.

Song Baishun walked on the road to Hantun with deep feet and shallow feet, cursing the ignorant woman at home. The old woman really has long hair and short knowledge. Before, she disliked the poor conditions of Brother Yuping's family. A widow brought three The son has been trying to introduce a partner to his daughter.

It's good now, when I heard that Hantun's chicken farm had distributed thousands of dollars to every family this year, they immediately changed their minds and pushed away the matchmaker's original blind date.

It's not just the second day of the new year, so I hurried to the Yuping brother's house to pay New Year's greetings, and by the way, let's talk about the marriage of the two children.

Ask Yuping's wife to talk about the marriage of the two children, and Song Baishun agrees a hundred times.He has always been opposed to his daughter-in-law looking for a matchmaker to introduce her to someone, but he has a fierce wife in his family, and he is afraid that his wife will be considered number one in Kezhai, so he can only secretly discuss with the two daughters to make her object to fucking opinions , after all, the daughter is born to the daughter-in-law.

This time it was all right, the orphans and widows of Yuping's family were able to see the moon when the moon was shining. With a capable person like He Ping in Han Tun, everyone's life became easier.

Song Baishun raised his head and looked at the waning moon and stars in the sky, "Brother Yuping, your spirit in the sky protects our two families, I'm sorry."

With two bottles of canned food in his hand and ten catties of millet on his back, Song Baishun knocked on the door of Wei Qiufen's house.

Aunt Qiufen opened the door and saw Song Baishun a little surprised, "Brother Baishun, why are you here?"

"Siblings, happy Chinese New Year!" Song Baishun paid Wei Qiufen a New Year's greeting.

Only then did Aunt Qiufen come to her senses, "Oh, Brother Baishun, look at me... Happy New Year, Happy New Year."

When Song Baishun entered the room, Aunt Qiufen called to the mother-in-law who was lying on the kang and said, "Mom, Brother Baishun is here."

"Third Aunt, Happy Chinese New Year!"

The old lady has lost her energy this winter, so she went to lie down on the kang early after eating, "Bai Shun'er is here? Sit down."

Song Baishun put down his things, and Aunt Qiufen said, "Brother Baishun, come as soon as you see you come, what else do you want to bring?"

"It's New Year's Eve, how can you be empty-handed!"

Aunt Qiufen put away her things, "Zhaolin took his younger brother out to play, and he won't be back until a while."

"It's all right, I'll come and take a look." Song Baishun looked at the old lady's mental state, and said with some shame: "It's been two years since I came to see you."

"Hey, Brother Baishun, what are you talking about?" Aunt Qiufen pointed to the old lady who had her eyes closed: "I'm not feeling well, and my ears are bad."

"I really didn't expect how strong I used to be." Song Baishun said, and then changed the subject: "There are talented people in your team. I heard about it in Kezhai. Great writers and talents, not to mention that they will be divided up this year. How about some money?"

"Brother, don't listen to rumors from outsiders. There are so many. Let's just say, it's much better than farming."

Looking at the unstoppable smile on Aunt Qiufen's face, Song Baishun knew that this statement could not be taken seriously, but he didn't take it to heart, and he didn't care about her money either.

"That's fine. The past two years have been hard for you. This year, Zhaolin has also made money, and your family has also received dividends. It looks like life will be easier." Song Baishun sighed.

Aunt Qiufen also had a longing look on her face, "Yeah, it's getting better soon."

"It's a pity Brother Yuping..." The atmosphere in the room fell into silence for a while, and both of them had a sad look.

"Let's not talk about that, it's all in the past." Aunt Qiufen took a serious look, "Are the sister-in-law and the children all right?"

"It's pretty good. Don't you know about your sister-in-law? You need to be top-notch in everything. It's tiring."

Wei Qiufen sighed: "It's so fast, how many years have passed, think about that when I was just pregnant with Zhaolin, she brought your family Dalian to see me."

"That's right, Da Lian is nineteen years old." Song Baishun said.

After Song Baishun finished speaking, Aunt Qiufen seemed to understand the purpose of his visit today, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

Seeing that Aunt Qiufen didn't answer, Song Baishun could only bite the bullet and say, "Is your Zhaolin eighteenth?"

Speaking of which, Aunt Qiufen can no longer play dumb, "Yes, I'm eighteen."

"Daughter-in-law! Daughter-in-law!" The old lady lying on the kang suddenly exclaimed, her voice full of panic: "Daughter-in-law, look quickly, is there someone outside the window? Is my Yuping back?" ? Yuping..."

The old lady started crying, and Song Baishun, who didn't know what to do, was so frightened by the old lady's sharp and piercing yell that his hairs stood on end, and asked with a bit of fear, "What's the matter?"

Aunt Qiufen said without any surprise: "It's nothing, this year's new problem, I call Yuping back at night."

Song Baishun breathed a sigh of relief, "Third Aunt's physique is really, alas!"

The old lady kept calling her son's name, her tone was sharp and her voice was hoarse.

Aunt Qiufen looked at Song Baishun helplessly, "Brother Baishun, I'm really sorry to see you, you finally came to the door, my mother is like this..."

"Understood, everyone will grow old one day." Song Baishun stood up knowingly, "I'm going to leave first if I have nothing to do, and I didn't look at your kid this time when I came back. I'll wait until I have a chance next time."

Aunt Qiufen said: "Okay, wait for the next time, go back and give my sister-in-law and the children a treat."

"Okay, let's go."

Aunt Qiufen sent Song Baishun out of the courtyard, came back into the house, and sighed while sitting on the edge of the kang.

"Zhaolin said that he can't marry his girl!" The old lady's hoarse voice suddenly came from her ear, and Aunt Qiufen was startled. She patted her chest and said, "Mom, take it easy. You're scared to death."

The old lady laughed aloud, "It's fine if you don't cooperate."

Aunt Qiufen realized when the old lady suddenly screamed out just now. Although she always talked about Yuping and Yuping, she had never made trouble like this, and Song Baishun was about to say two things. children's affairs.

Then there is only one possibility, that is, the old lady does not want Aunt Qiufen to express her opinion on this matter.

Aunt Qiufen lived with the old lady for half her life, so she couldn't understand what she meant, so she had to send Song Baishun away.

The old lady said bitterly: "The whole family is snobbish. When Yuping was here, we were called brothers and sisters. Once Yuping left, he couldn't even face each other. Now he still has the face to mention Zhaolin's marriage? Don't take a picture Mirror. Didn’t his wife keep trying to find someone for the girl, let him find someone, if he finds a cadre in the city, let’s go and give him a gift, spit!"

"Mom, Big Brother Baishun is very good. After Yuping left, he asked someone to bring some corn and millet over when he was free. That's my sister-in-law..."

"Fake it, don't mention that. What are you called a man, you have to be a family, just like their parents, what can the girl learn. Anyway, I don't care about others. I definitely don't agree with Zhaolin and his daughter. .”

The old lady turned over angrily, and let Aunt Qiufen dry her back.

Aunt Qiufen looked at the old lady's back, and from the old lady's reaction when Song Baishun entered the door, she knew that the old lady would definitely not agree to this marriage.

But this marriage was agreed upon by Yuping when he was still alive, and it is hard to change his mind.

"Ugh……".
