Chapter 91
Liang Xiaomei was very surprised. Her sister-in-law made such a fuss. The back mountain she bought years ago has not yet been developed, and she needs to run a school. Can it work?

It's a bit unrealistic to see my sister-in-law struggling so hard now.

Xiaotao smiled, this kind of thought really scared the little girl.

He hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I just want to change the thinking of our village women, most of the time I still want to lead them to make a fortune.

You see, if our women earn money, no matter how much their men object to women being the masters of the house, they have to think about it. After all, the economic base determines the superstructure. There is really nothing wrong with this saying. "

Upper decision decided by the economic background?

The little girl frowned, wondering where her sister-in-law learned these nonsensical words, but the bright and firm eyes of her sister-in-law talking to herself immediately gave the little girl strength.

"Okay, sister-in-law will support you whatever she says."

Well, Xiaotao is happy, her words successfully convinced a little girl.

"Then let's go to the village to find a house now."

In the main room, Mrs. Zhang was muttering to Liang Dalin about Chen Xiaoliang's family losing a child last night.

"Tell me that Mrs. Zheng really doesn't know what to do. What a good daughter-in-law who took care of her younger brother. She just took the child away behind her back and sold it. Really, it's nothing!"

Liang Dalin bent down and kicked the firewood next to the stove pit into the stove, and looked for a shovel to pick out the red charcoal fire and put it in the mud basin, and said, "Don't talk about other people's business, just take care of yourself!"

Mrs. Zhang glared at the man and fell silent.

At this moment, I heard Westinghouse's wife and daughter talking about running a school, and they frowned and looked at each other, shaking their heads and sighing.

Although this daughter-in-law has brought a lot of good luck to the family since she became the head of the family, she is about to give birth, and Zhang is a little unhappy.

He murmured in a low voice: "This child is going to have a baby, and he is going out to make troubles. What a life! What is school?"

Although Liang Dalin didn't want his wife to go out, he didn't dare to say anything and could only stare at his wife.

He whispered: "Shut up, can you not talk?"

At this time, Xiaomei and Xiaotao came out and saw her parents-in-law staring at her. Xiaotao coughed and said, "Father and mother, let's go for a walk in the village."

It's up to her to make up her own mind about everything, and she doesn't understand if she talks to them, so Xiaotao doesn't want to talk nonsense with them, so she just walks away.

Mrs. Zhang coughed a little unhappy and looked at her daughter.

The little girl shook her head to signal her parents to leave it alone, and followed her sister-in-law out.

The little girl walked to the door and turned around and saw that her parents were still looking at the two of them, so she shook her head and went out with her sister-in-law.

The two walked out of the house and asked Xiaotao as they walked, "Which family in our village has a spare house."

Although Xiaotao has the original owner's memory, she still has to search for it in the sea of ​​knowledge, so it's better to ask the younger sister directly to save trouble.

"Sister-in-law, you forgot. People in our village say that the houses are big, and they are as big as several big houses. However, there are people living in them, and there is the Liang family ancestral hall. It is spacious there, but it is all for Liang's family. The ranking of our ancestors, can we go?"

ah?Xiaotao remembered the ancestral hall.

"Okay, let's go to the ancestral hall."

That big family can't go, so I can only go to the ancestral hall.

The little girl stared at her sister-in-law. Although she has changed a lot recently, the little girl has gradually accepted the sister-in-law in front of her. However, in the past, the sister-in-law didn't even dare to approach the entrance of the ancestral hall.

"Sister-in-law, do you still remember that when you and your elder brother had a wedding, we went to this ancestral hall to worship our ancestors, and you almost fainted from fright."

Xiaotao knew about her change, which made the little girl suspicious, and hurriedly said: "Hey, isn't that before? Before, I was really timid, but now I understand that even if a person dies, he will take that step. We all Don't believe in those crooked ways, people will be pulled down when they die, and the ranking of offerings is just respect and longing for the dead, so I am not afraid now."

The younger sister couldn't understand what her sister-in-law said, so she could only nod her head, and the two rushed to the Liang family's ancestral hall at the south end of the village.

At this time, I saw the village's errat running in front, followed by Song Chuxia who was carrying a wooden stick, cursing loudly: "You poor ghost, dare to eat my mother's tofu, I will let you eat, today I will beat you to death! "

Erlaizi is a rascal in the village, there is no parents at home, only an elder brother, he used to be in the village, his boss ran around, and when he caught up with someone for dinner, he just rubbed a meal, everyone knew he was a rascal, so he just let him go Let him do this.

But now, this summer has been hit by a drought, and every family has to eat rations, so how can there be more for him to eat?
The bastard went to steal and rob, and the people in the village felt a headache when they saw the bastard.

Two days ago, I got in touch with Jia Laolan. Although Jia Laolan was in his forties, he didn't get along with a daughter-in-law. He had some money on hand, so the bastard fell in love with him.

These days, he has been making do with Jia Laoji's house.

After the new year, Jia Laolan was unwell and couldn't cook for the second-hand son, so he ran out and went to various houses to eat.

At this time, Erlaizi saw Xiaotao and Xiaomei approaching, his eyes straightened, and he forgot about Song Chuxia behind him, and stood there looking at Xiaotao.

"Get out of here quickly, don't just look around here."

Xiao Tao glared and shouted, then turned around and dragged the little girl to the ancestral hall.

With a stick in her hand, Song Chuxia went straight to smack the bum on the head.

Er Laizi giggled: "Look at your stupidity, so you soft tofu can also subdue me?"

Song Chuxia yelled bitterly: "That's the tofu I worked so hard to grind with the stone mill, and you ruined it. It's so annoying!"

Then he hit the guy on the head again.

Seeing this, the younger sister hurriedly dragged her sister-in-law away.

He whispered: "Sister-in-law, let's stop watching, that stinky rascal is not worthy of pity."

Xiaotao was really angry when she saw Song Chuxia, and she felt a pity for the tofu thrown all over the floor.

There are only a handful of people in this village who can afford tofu at this time.

Xiaotao suddenly found a good way to make money, and hurriedly turned around and dragged her to the Liang family's ancestral hall.

The little girl said in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, you can walk slowly, and be careful not to move your fetus."

Xiaotao and younger sister came directly to the gate of the ancestral hall at the south end of the village.

There are two black lacquered doors, and the locks are already rusty, which makes the little girl a little scared.

It looks like no one has been here for a long time.

Xiaotao shook her head: "The Liang family doesn't know to whom the ancestors are enshrined, and they don't even offer incense after the Chinese New Year."

The little girl nodded and sighed: "Sister-in-law, you also know that the life in the village is getting worse day by day. The life of the villagers basically depends on the sky for food. It is good that the people in the village don't starve to death in this drought." Now, why would you want to offer incense?”

Xiaotao nodded, stepped forward and moved the lock twice, and it opened immediately.

The younger sister was a little surprised. Not only did her sister-in-law do things to impress her, but she also had such strength, which was really unbelievable.

It was the first time I had seen the iron lock being able to be pulled open with one hand.

Xiao Tao slowly pushed open the door of the ancestral hall, a musty smell rushed into her nostrils, Xiao Tao quickly covered her nose, and walked in.

The little girl behind her also covered her nose and walked inside with her sister-in-law, saying as she walked, "It's really different here."

Xiaotao didn't speak, but saw that the wormwood in the courtyard of the ancestral hall had withered, and the snow in the courtyard was not cleared.

Without saying a word, Xiaotao directly grabbed the broom placed next to the door and began to clean.

"Little sister, how nice it is here. We will be farming and making tofu here in the future. Look at how big the yard is. It's really useless."

ah?Breeding, making tofu?

The little girl couldn't laugh or cry.

"Sister-in-law, you want to open a school and raise tofu at the same time. You can't do it alone. It would be great if you have the ability to separate yourself."

The little girl bent over laughing, and Xiaotao happily held her stomach.

"Look, little girl. I just saw that Aunt Song felt sorry for the tofu at home and let the second-hand son eat it. I thought, we can make tofu and sell it to the villagers, or go to the town to sell it."

The little girl stared at her sister-in-law: "Is this possible? Everyone in the village is poor as hell, who can afford tofu?"

Xiaotao thought about it and said, "If you can't afford tofu, you can use my family's work in exchange for it. Isn't our family going to develop the back mountain? We can also raise pigs and chickens with tofu residue. Well, this is a good idea."

Xiaotao was happy, she really didn't come out in vain today.

The little girl nodded: "Sister-in-law, what you say is fine, but this ancestral hall does not belong to our family, it is the ancestral hall of a large family of the Liang family, although only our family and Liang Xi's family are left in our village. The old patriarch, Mr. Liang, and his son, Liang Tian, ​​are also lying on the kang and are about to die, but the Liang Shulin family is still there, so Aunt Liang and her two sons are not easy to talk to, should we discuss it with them?"

Xiaotao blinked her big eyes twice, nodded: "Okay, we'll go there now."

With that said, Xiaotao turned around, patted the dust off her hands, and walked directly to the gate.

The younger sister hurriedly followed her sister-in-law to the outside of the ancestral hall.

I definitely wouldn't dare to be here by myself.

When the two of them came out, they saw Song Chuxia rubbing her hands and talking to the woman in the village, with high and low voices, then turned around and saw Xiaotao and Xiaomei coming out, and looked over without saying a word.

The little girl asked Xiaotao in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, do we need to lock the door?"

Xiaotao turned around to look, turned back, reached out to lock the gate, and went straight to the old patriarch Liang Tian's house in the middle of the village.

Not long after, the two came to the Liang family's old yard.

"Is Uncle Liang at home?"

Xiaotao stood at the gate of Liang's house, looked into the yard and yelled twice.

At this time, the door of the room opened, and a gray-faced old woman came out. Seeing the person coming from the door, she was a little dazed, and then said weakly: "Here you are, you are rare visitors, why do you want to come to my house?"

Xiaotao quickly searched the memory of the original owner, and found out that this is the old patriarch's eldest daughter-in-law, the old lady Chen, who looks about 50 or [-] years old.

"Auntie, let's take a look at the old patriarch's grandfather."

Xiaotao thought that she should come to see the old patriarch as a junior, so she said something without thinking.

But after speaking, my heart started beating again.

When I came out to see the old man, I really didn't buy any gifts, which is really unreasonable.

The little girl also seemed to feel a little embarrassed, she blushed and said nothing.

"Hey, look at you two girls, come in quickly."

Chen looked at Xiaotao's high belly, then at Xiaotao's eyes, then turned to look at Xiaomei.

Although Chen didn't say anything, she felt that Xiaotao had changed too much.

Not to mention anything else, just this pair of glowing eyes can heal a person's bad mood.

The two entered the yard, Xiaotao looked at the small farmyard, no matter how you looked at it, it was not the house where the patriarch lived with great glory in the past.

It is really embarrassing that the Liang family is in such a state of desperation now.

"Is my uncle at home?"

Xiaotao followed her aunt to the door and asked casually.

"Hey, didn't your uncle go to the town to get medicine for your grandfather? The medicine in this family is gone, and it doesn't work. It's really hard!"

Xiaotao had known for a long time that the head of the Liang family was quite a figure in this village. Although the village was called Dahuaishu Village, the surname Liang accounted for most of the people. Most of the families in the village ran away to find more fertile land.

Xiaotao entered the room with someone, and seeing the darkness in the room, it took her eyes a long time to get used to it.

The pitch-black stove, the pitch-black pit, and even the door are black.

This family is really poor.

Entering the house, I saw that although the house was a little better than the main room, it also had kang cabinets and bedding, but the smell of herbs in this room was like entering a prescription, it was very choking, it was really uncomfortable.

Xiaotao really wanted to quit, but she was afraid that her aunt would lose face.

He tried his best to control and held his breath, and saw a skinny old man lying on the kang, his face was as thin as a skeleton, and he was looking at him with wide-eyed eyes.

Xiaotao's heart trembled, and she hurriedly asked, "Hi, grandpa, what's wrong with you?"

Liang Tian stared blankly at the two girls who just came in, his mind was spinning.

Ask in a low voice: "Are you the daughter-in-law of Liang Dalin's family?"

Xiaotao nodded hurriedly, and said in a low voice, "Yes, I am Xiaotao. How did you become like this? Tell me quickly."

The little girl next to her tried to escape by grabbing her sister-in-law's skirt, but seeing that her sister-in-law wouldn't leave, she didn't dare to go out.

Aunt Chen shook her head and sighed: "Don't ask, he's a little confused."

Liang Tian glared at his daughter-in-law, and said in a low voice, "I'm not confused, I know I can't die!"

Xiaotao nodded hurriedly: "Yes, none of us can die, as long as you have breath, we will let you get up."

Hearing what Xiaotao said, the Liangtian patriarch seemed to understand the purpose of Xiaotao's visit to his house. Although he was not in good health, he still acted like the old patriarch.

Looking at Xiaotao with a long breath, he shook his head and said, "Our old Liang family can't fall, even if my patriarch is gone, our ancestral hall must be preserved, and our ancestor's ranking must not be lost!"

Xiaotao stopped talking, this guy is already like this, and he is still thinking about the ranking of his ancestors in the ancestral hall.

Seeing the old patriarch's appearance, Xiaotao dragged her aunt to the main room, and asked the person next to her in a low voice: "What's wrong with my grandfather?"

Aunt Chen sighed: "He was in good health at the beginning, but he got a serious illness, and it became like this."

Xiaotao hurriedly asked, "What serious illness?"

Aunt Chen said: "It's not a serious illness, it's just a bug bite. Since then, my body has become weaker and weaker, and it's been more than half a month since I started urinating blood. I'm afraid it's really going to be over this time!"

Aunt Chen had tears in her eyes while she was speaking, and Xiaotao also felt distressed when she saw it.

At this time, two children ran in the yard, a boy and a girl, both about seven or eight years old. Seeing a stranger coming to the house, they hid behind Mrs. Chen.

Mrs. Chen shook her head and scolded in a low voice: "They are all from the same village, what are you afraid of?"

Xiao Tao frowned. She saw that the faces of these two children were also sallow, which was different from normal children's faces. Although Xiao Tao is not a doctor, her stepfather is an old doctor of Chinese medicine. She really learned the same first step.

There was a premonition in my mind, did this family have some infectious disease?
Thinking of this, Xiaotao turned around and walked out. The little girl behind her didn't know what happened to her sister-in-law, so she followed her.

"Sister-in-law, this is us"

The two of them came to ask about the ancestral hall, wouldn't my sister-in-law stop talking?
Xiaotao didn't speak, and watched Chen Shi also open the door, Xiaotao walked around the house twice, looking at the chicken, duck and goose droppings all over the yard, and there was also a big cow in the yard.

This place has become a dung heap, and the environment is beyond description.

If people live in this environment for a long time, will they be infected with diseases?
