Dashan Makes a Living 1984

Chapter 20 020: Mother and Child

"I don't know you anymore." Li Yali pursed her lips and smiled, "Why are you so powerful? I didn't see it before. I think the way you spoke just now is very majestic."

"That's right, it's because you don't understand your man anymore. I still have a lot of strengths." After Wang Tianxiao was reborn, he was very mature and experienced in front of others, but he could only laugh and unruly in front of his wife.

In his previous life, he was not good at words. Although he had a good relationship with his wife, he rarely had such a natural and warm daily life as a couple. The pressure of life was overwhelming, and the pressure was naturally passed on to his wife.

"Hey, hey, it's started again. It's really not a compliment. If you praise it, your tail can go up to the sky." Li Yali smiled, her eyes were full of affection.

She saw and heard what happened in the yard just now through the window, and she was proud of her husband in her heart.I feel that my man has a gentle temperament at home, knows how to care for others, and is upright and awe-inspiring to the outside world, without giving an inch.

That's great.

Wang Tianxiao smiled and didn't refute his wife. He untied the bag, took out the bought cloth and handed it to his wife. Li Yali was overjoyed when she saw it, looked at it over and over again, and couldn't put it down.

"This is for me, where did you get so much money?"

"Didn't you sell the rabbit?"

"How much can the rabbit sell for? I think this cloth is so good, it feels really comfortable to the touch, and the color is very positive. I'm afraid it will cost several cents per meter."

"Well, almost."

In fact, this cloth costs a few cents per foot, which is quite a few yuan.

But fearing that his wife would be reluctant to use it, Wang Tianxiao did not tell the truth.A sudden change in spending habits may not necessarily make your wife particularly happy, but may increase her anxiety, so take it slowly.

He left a portion of the oil cake he bought for his wife, and took the rest to his mother's cave.

"Mom, just lie down."

After Wang Tianxiao went in, he saw his mother lying on the kang with her eyes slightly closed.

My younger sister, Wang Xiaozhu, went to school and hasn't come back yet.

Zhang Meifeng opened her eyes and looked at her son, and asked, "What's the matter, second child."

"I went to the city to sell things today, and I brought you some oil cakes. They are soft and delicious. You can eat them." Wang Tianxiao put the oil cake bag on the railing, took out one for his mother, and sat down on the Kang by himself. along.

Zhang Meifeng hesitated, but still sat up, took the oil cake and ate it.

"what about the taste?"

"Very sweet and delicious."

"That's good." Wang Tianxiao lay down in front of his mother.

Think about it, my mother in my previous life has been dead for more than 20 years. Although she has a bit of a temper and a stubborn temperament, it is not easy to take care of nine children by herself.

Maybe she wasn't that strong in the first place, but all the burdens of life were on her body. To be a good mother, she had to toughen herself up.

Looking at the face of her second son, Zhang Meifeng took out a small key from her pocket and handed it to Wang Tianxiao.

"What is this, mother?"

"Open my box next to the stove. There is a bracelet at the bottom of the clothes. It is a gift from my mother-in-law. You can take it. You said that you want to separate, but mother has no money for you now. What do you do? points."

Wang Tianxiao's eyes warmed up slightly. Seeing that his mother's eyes were full of worry, he gently put the key back in the mother's palm, "Mother, don't worry, I'm sure I can help you. Your son is a public servant."

"What kind of public food?" Zhang Meifeng sighed, "Nothing tastes good. You don't have to work hard and don't look at people's faces. Mother knows that it is not easy for you to be alone in other places, and also knows that the third wife is not a fuel-efficient lamp. My mother is old, and there are many things I can't do..."

"It's okay, I understand."

"Do you really understand?"

"That's right, your son is so smart."

Zhang Meifeng froze for a moment, and suddenly realized that something was wrong with this son today, he was so glib and glib, and thinking about it again, it seemed that since he came back this time, he had changed.

But upon closer inspection, it was clearly his own son.

Whether it is a real child or not, the mother can tell at a glance.

She smiled slightly.

At this moment, I felt that there was another man in the family who could stand up to things. His second son had really grown up.

After Wang Tianxiao came out of his mother's cave, he felt much more relaxed. He knew that his mother still had a lot of feudal ideas, such as patriarchalism, dislike of granddaughters, dislike of wives because of the two villages, and so on.

But that's only part of being a mother.

And the part about motherhood, she's never been so good.

As a mother, I owe my children nothing.

It was getting late, and the chimneys of the houses began to smoke.

Wang Tianxiao and the third and fourth family all cook by themselves, and the fifth and sixth children eat with their mother with Xiao Jiu because they have not married.

Wang Tianxiao left a wild rabbit in the morning, so he squatted beside the seepage pit in the yard to handle the rabbit, and several children and Xiao Jiu all watched around.

"Erda, what is this?" Xiao Hongwei had just learned to speak, but he was already very mischievous, squatting beside Wang Tianxiao, staring at him with interest.

"This is to pluck rabbits and rabbits." Wang Fang explained to his cousin.

"Why are you plucking hair?"

"Of course I eat meat, brother." Xiaotian was a boy, but he was very delicate. When he grows up, he will also be the best-looking boy in the whole family.

Unfortunately, he later died in a traffic accident.

Because of Wang Tianxiao's mentality of an old man, even though these are nephews, they seem to be separated from each other.

He took the trouble to chat with a few children, which made everyone laugh.

"Hongwei, come back, don't you have a home?" Yu Xiaofeng shouted from inside.

"No, I want to play with Er Da, and I want to eat rabbit meat."

Yu Xiaofeng came out in a hurry, grabbed Hongwei's arm, and hit him on the buttocks a few times, making the child cry.

Then, no matter what happened, he dragged the child back to his cave, and closed the door firmly.

There were crisp slaps and majestic cries from inside.

The hanged ghost!

Wang Tianxiao never hits children, and he hates parents who impose their own incompetence and unhappiness on their children.

Thinking of her previous life, Wang Hongwei finally settled in other places and left Yu Xiaofeng at home, probably it was her retribution for corporal punishment of him when she was a child.

After Hongwei was dragged back, Tian'er was also called in by the fourth child, and only Wang Fang and her younger sister Wang Xiaozhu were left watching.

"Brother, can you give me some food later?" Wang Xiaozhu swallowed greedily.

"Okay, why not, if you are obedient and study hard, I will buy you whatever you want."

"whee."

Wang Xiaozhu was very excited.

After tidying up the rabbit, Wang Tianxiao chopped the rabbit meat into pieces, put them in the pot and started cooking.

In fact, rabbit meat has no special taste, and it is usually stewed with other meat, but now there is no other meat, so we have to make do with seasoning instead.

If so, the aroma soon filled the entire small courtyard.

After the meat was stewed, he first sent some rotten meat to his mother, and then gave his sister a rabbit leg. The remaining three rabbit legs were torn off for Wang Fang to take one by himself, and the other to Xiaotian.

Then I and my wife began to feast on the cornmeal pancakes, and ate very happily.
