A pleasant life in a courtyard

Chapter 378 What happened after the deaf old lady
Birth, old age, illness and death are human nature.

The deaf old lady, who was quite prestigious in the courtyard, could not argue with the King of Hell.

The aunt who came to deliver breakfast found her lying on the bed and not breathing.

When I found out, my body was already stiff.

If we count it by time, I guess there were no people left in the first half of last night.

The death of the old lady did not surprise everyone in the courtyard.

Mainly because two days ago, the old lady, who had difficulty moving since she fell, actually got up from the bed, walked outside, and asked Mother Li who was passing by for chicken soup.

Mother Li looked at the old lady who had regained her energy and had an idea.

The old lady is like this, I'm afraid she's coming back to her old days.

Mother Li was kind-hearted and immediately agreed. Even though she didn't have any at home, she immediately went home to get the money and went back to the vegetable market.

If the eldest sister was present at this time, she should know why the old lady said that to Mother Li.

Just for this appetite, it doesn't look like he is about to die.

That time, it was a rare occasion for their family to drink chicken soup.

Could it be that she had given the old lady food that didn't taste right?

Mother Li was confused when she heard this. She didn't know why the old lady said such a thing.

When she lay back on the bed, she was still in the mood to tease Li's mother.

How many years have passed, and this selfish old lady is still thinking about mixing chicken soup with water.

The aunt who was serving the old lady frowned after hearing what the old lady said.

The living do not compete with the dying for food.

After she went out, she comforted Mother Li who was still thinking: "Don't think too much. People's memory is poor when they get old. I don't think you have anything to blame against the old lady. I'm afraid she will take her away." It’s all on your head.”

The old lady had a good appetite at noon that day.

Her brother didn't bring much chicken back from outside, only a quarter of the whole chicken.

It's not like just adding water to her bowl. From the past until now, whoever stewed chicken soup would put a lot of water in it, as if they could stew a pot of soup with just one piece of meat.

Her mother was concerned about Qin Huairu, who was pregnant in the hospital, and was worried that she would be too busy with Brother Dongxu's affairs, so she specially gave a lunch box of chicken soup to her brother to deliver.

She jokingly said, "Cuiping, the taste is finally right this time."

I thought to myself that this old lady was really out of her mind. Someone kindly brought her chicken soup, but after drinking it, she still had to pick her fault.

The old lady drank the chicken soup and wiped her face under the service of the aunt.

Of course, if she had been there to hear it, she didn't know if she would be able to suppress her temper and retaliate against the old lady.

I bought an old hen, made chicken soup, and then brought it all out in a jar, leaving not a drop at home.

Mother Li couldn't help but fall into memories, looking for the old lady's careless mention.

With just two big chicken legs, I drank nearly half of the can of soup.

The remaining ones were not enough to drink, and an old lady came to ask for them.

Don't add some water to it and continue to stew for a while.

When I gave the old lady a bowl of soup, she not only didn't say it was good, but commented that it was bland, and she still remembers it to this day.

After drinking the pure chicken soup stewed this time, I recounted the events of that year.

Fortunately, Mother Li didn't remember it, otherwise she would have felt extremely uncomfortable.

He had good intentions and was so abused by the old lady.

This is nothing compared to how difficult it was at that time. The chicken soup made from a chicken thigh is indeed bland, but the friendship is real. This time it was quite flavorful. The whole chicken was stewed with less water. The stewed chicken butter floated thickly on top of the soup. Just smelling the mellow fragrance makes people feel hungry. move.

But what happened, Li's mother felt unlucky and didn't even want to split the points.

The old lady who looked rosy at noon was no longer good at night.

The half-can of chicken soup that she missed so much was finally given to the Jia family after Auntie confirmed that the Li family didn't want it.

The eldest mother herself doesn't want it. Since having an adopted daughter, the couple's life has become more prosperous, and money is no longer as tight as before.

For the adopted daughter who changed her name to Yi Xiaobao, the first uncle can still support the strict father's appearance, but the first stepmother's love is more obvious.

It can be said that Yi Xiaobao's love is such that if he puts it in his hand, he is afraid of losing it, and if he holds it in his mouth, he is afraid of melting.

This little person has just learned to walk and talk, but even the eldest mother dare not let her touch the old lady's things for fear of collision.

The old lady went there at the age of more than ninety. Considering her age, any funeral ceremony across the country would be considered a happy mourning.

Therefore, the faces of the neighbors in the courtyard did not show much sadness.

He Yuzhu, the grandson who had always been treated kindly by the old lady, only shed a few tears of sadness when he learned that the old lady was gone.

Afterwards, he talked to other people and quickly returned to his normal expression.

Of course Li Xiang would come back to attend the old lady's funeral.

But he was the only one who came back. Qiu Fanghua had just been diagnosed with pregnancy, so everyone didn't let her come.

It wasn't that Li wanted to complain, but stepping into the courtyard was like turning on some kind of switch.

The peace gained from moving disappeared without a trace at the moment of entering the courtyard.

Li Xiang was led by Li's mother. As soon as he finished worshiping in front of the old lady's soul, someone from the street office came.

Everyone thought that they were also here to see this old lady off for the last time.

Unexpectedly, everyone only guessed half of it right. In addition to worshiping, they also have another important task.

"What, this house is left to the pillars?" The always calm and calm man also changed his expression at this time.

The thunder left by the old lady stunned everyone in the courtyard.

What everyone was thinking at this moment was that God, what's going on?

Li couldn't help but whisper in Mother Li's ear: "This old lady is too ungrateful in her behavior."

Mother Li was also shocked, and the expression on her face was also very exciting.

She glanced in the direction of Zing Ling without words, thinking that this old lady really loved He Yuzhu, her eldest grandson, to the core of her being.

In this matter, most of the neighbors in the courtyard stood on the side of the first man's family, and they felt sorry for them in their hearts.

Because what the old lady did was really chilling.

The eldest mother did her best to take care of the old lady, not for a year or two, but for almost twenty years.

Especially in the next ten years, the care was no longer just about eating and cleaning, but also those who pooped and peeed.

This kind of meticulous care may not be possible for many children raised in their own wombs, but a mother has been doing it for so many years.

Although the first uncle and the first aunt have their own selfish motives for providing for the elderly.

But when it comes to deeds, no one is perfect.

After all, he was a down-to-earth person, he did everything he needed to do, and he also helped out with things he shouldn't have done.

Now that the old lady is gone, it's time for others to receive the fruits.

Who would have thought that he would be tricked by the old lady at the end of the meeting.
