Back to 80, start from gold digging

Chapter 24

The half-person-high stone wall on the side of the dirt road at the west end of the village has already loosened and aged after years of wind and sun, and a piece of gravel and dry mud will fall from time to time.Everyone in the village knows the condition of the stone wall, and they will take care to avoid some distance when passing by, so as to prevent the gravel from falling down and bumping into each other.

The four girls of the Zhao family were all natives of Bailangli Village, so they didn't know anything about this stone wall. Since they walked in the memorandum meeting, this section of the wall has become a place where they have been warned.

Although Li Cuizhen is a hard-hearted mother who doesn't spoil her children very much, she still tells her youngest daughter a lot about walking away from dangerous areas.Zhao Wennan knew that it was okay not to lean too much against the earth and stone wall, since there was probably something wrong if you leaned up.

The way of thinking of children is not quite the same as that of adults. They think that if they have something to rest against a dangerous wall, it must be a big deal.In the little girl's heart, there is nothing important except cooking, and the most important thing in daily life is eating.

Coincidentally, Zhao Wennan saw Li Cuizhen giving money to Zhao Mingyu in the morning, and today is the market again, maybe her father can buy some delicious food back.Reporting this hope, Zhao Wennan ran forward with a smile, and when he got close, he saw the face of that person. It was indeed Zhao Mingyu, and he was eating with his head down at that time.

Sure enough, I bought something delicious, "Father—" the little girl exclaimed excitedly.

Zhao Mingyu raised her head in shock and saw that it was Zhao Wennan, the fourth child. She quickly stuffed the remaining half of the twist into her mouth, chewed hard twice and swallowed.

Zhao Wennan: "..."

Isn't there a saying that goes like this: the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.Zhao Wennan, who saw his gentle, weak father, rough and unrestrained eating, deeply felt the malice from the big universe, blinked his big eyes twice, howled earth-shatteringly, and trotted back, wiping his tears and nose. home.

Li Cuizhen was frightened by the crying of the little girl, and she helped her man in her heart, and comforted the sad four daughters: "Your father is not in good health, you need to eat something rich in oil and water. It's just time to go to the market today, and he is tired from shopping." It’s not a big deal if you just buy a twist, look at your narrow-mindedness, wouldn’t you be happy if your father had something good?”

It would be better if she didn't explain it, but this explanation was even worse. Zhao Wennan became more and more aggrieved, and wiped his tears and shouted: "Don't lie to me, he ate not one but five! I saw it all. There is a bag with a big red letter on the stone next to it, and five small white bags that are broken. That is the whole bag. I saw it when my eldest sister took me to the market last time. Gener cannabis flower————”

"..." Li Cuizhen was silenced by the yelling from her tender voice. The only shop selling marijuana in the market was the one that sold marijuana flowers. There were five marijuana in the pocket with big red letters, one for five cents, and one bag for twenty cents. Isn't the money given just right?

Zhao Mingyu was not in good health, Li Cuizhen felt sorry for him, and prevented him from doing more work and exerting more strength.In terms of food, only him comes first, and then myself and a few children.This time, she was really angry. The man she loved only cared about her size and didn't think about her pregnant wife and young children, which made her very sad.

Zhao Wenduo, who had figured out the cause and effect, had a dull face, and looked at Zhao Mingyu who was lying on the bed of the kang in a neutral manner. He also realized that he had done something stupid today. Cough twice.

Work to save energy, eat delicious food, make troubles at every turn, be busy during the day and night, be sick and weak but not delay the childbirth at all.No one cares about eating well, and he can compete with his five-year-old child for food. With this bear father, whoever has it can not have a headache?

"That piece of meat will be made into braised pork at night, cut into ten pieces, exactly two pieces per person, enough to eat!" Zhao Wenduo said abruptly.

When the whole family was still talking about Zhao Mingyu and felt very angry, it suddenly turned to dinner, and they were confused for a while.

Zhao Mingyu secretly had fun, these three girls usually looked cold and swish, but they still cared about his father unexpectedly, knowing to help at a critical moment, diverting the big guy's attention, and feeling pretty good.

As soon as Zhao Wennan heard that there was braised pork, he immediately regained his spirits. He didn't feel wronged or red-eyed, and divided his fingers: "There are ten pieces of meat, two for me, two for the third sister, and two for the eldest sister." Son, second sister, two dollars, mother, two dollars, father—eh, no more!?”

The little girl was angry with Zhao Mingyu because of the twist, and she automatically ranked him last, but she didn't have enough fingers to count, so she felt confused for a while.

Li Cuizhen didn't react either, but just put it on the last sentence, said '呵呀' twice, and reprimanded: "What's your father gone? Can you talk?" She is most taboo about such words, especially It's because there is a person who is sick all the year round, so I can't hear this.

Zhao Wenying knew that Zhao Wenduo didn't want to see Zhao Mingyu's father very much, and she had a Shenmu temperament, so she wouldn't say something like this for no reason, and she was talking about disregarding her family. It's not difficult to make such a connection. understand what it means.Immediately he pursed his lips to laugh, pretending to misunderstand Li Cuizhen's words, and said solemnly: "Mom, Xiao Sier's calculation is correct, ten pieces of meat is just enough for the five of us."

Li Cuizhen just wanted to ask, what about your father's share?Before she could say anything, Zhao Mingyu quit: "How do we settle accounts? Is there only five people in our family? How old are we, can we count them?" That is serious pork belly, fat and thin, stewed well One bite can burn off the tongue, and if you can't catch it once in a year, how can you miss it.

What kind of temperament is my father, as a girl, still don't know?Zhao Wenying is the eldest in the family, and Zhao Mingyu is 'work less laborious, delicious', I have seen more of this than the others, and I can guess him even with my eyes closed. Definitely be impatient.

She has a dull temper, and she never expresses it even if she feels uncomfortable in her heart. This time, she finally got such an opportunity, so she naturally wanted to vent slightly: "Father, you are really wrong, Xiao Sier and I The calculations are good, there are indeed six people in our family, but the third child means that the ten pieces of meat will be shared among us, and there will be no portion for you, isn't this just enough for an average share?"

"Why didn't you give it to your father?"

"Why don't you have my share?"

Zhao Mingyu and Li Cuizhen uttered their voices almost at the same time, and they really deserved to be a couple with a strong sense of tacit understanding.

Li Cuizhen was used to Wang Feng at home, and when she yelled in a high-pitched voice, all the children panicked, it had nothing to do with whether she was right or wrong, it was just a kind of inertia.

Zhao Wenying, the oldest, was the most affected. Reflexive fear, as soon as her raised voice reached her ears, her short and stocky body jumped up, and the corners of her mouth with laugh lines unconsciously retracted, laying on her body. The sense of relief that didn't appear easily disappeared in the blink of an eye, and the drooping head and shoulders were the dull air again.

How honest and capable the boss of this family is, he will suffer as much and suffer as much. Zhao Wenduo has seen it clearly in the past few days, and he feels wronged for her in his heart, which can lead to such a final situation. The root cause is this age, this impoverished family, even her who is called injustice is part of these reasons. The younger sisters make her, the eldest sister, have to endure more.

If anyone in this family loves Li Wenying the most, there is no doubt that it is Zhao Wenduo.Even if she has only joined this family for a short time, it is not as long as other people, but this does not affect this kind of emotion. After seeing too much cruelty in life and death, she cherishes this kind of silent burden more and more. .

Of course, this does not mean that the Zhao family is indifferent to Zhao Wenying's contribution, but such apology and obedience are regarded as normal.Maybe at the beginning, I felt that I owed this daughter and this sister, but after a long time, it became a habit, I got used to this kind of tolerance, I got used to this kind of overpayment.

It is precisely for this reason that those who will come to this home will feel the deepest.
