life struggle

Zhu Chunyan looked at Bai Lingyan and said half-jokingly, "Isn't Xiaojun causing too much trouble? This time is not too bad. He has been away from me for the past few days and I have been terrified. I am worried about what to do with my child and grandma. Speaking of which, once you two come back today, I'm also relieved."

Bai Lingyan said amiably, "Sister-in-law, I don't want to cause trouble for you, and make you feel uncomfortable. I really don't want to stay in that stagnant and sad home, and go outside to calmly relieve the depressed mood that has been suppressed for many days. , I came here with Xiaojun because I had nowhere to go, please don’t blame Xiaojun for being reckless.”

After Bai Lingyan went out with Wu Xiaojun, Bai Lingwan didn't pay attention to it at first. After waiting for more than two hours without her coming back, a bad thought suddenly appeared.She hurried along the village road to the main street, and asked her cousin who opened a shop at the intersection. The cousin said, "More than an hour ago, I saw Yanzi and a young man waiting for the bus, and later I saw them boarding the bus to Pingxi." Bus, what's the matter?"

Bai Lingwan said with a pale face, "Nothing, nothing!" Then she went back to her residence anxiously, lying on the bed, thinking over and over again what the swallows were doing in Pingxi, where they might go, and what would happen?Suddenly a terrible thought appeared in Bai Lingwan's mind, "Ah, it's broken!" She said to herself, "Will these two people go crazy if their brains don't make decisions? Could it be that Yanzi will go to Yuanzhen with Wu Xiaojun? Really? How can I explain to my parents? They are undoubtedly eloping, and it is a stupid thing with far-reaching impact on Yanzi and Wu Xiaojun. If Yanzi is cruel, he will ignore everything, even don't even want a career, and stay there willingly , not coming back for a year or so, and giving birth to a child will ruin her whole life. If she wakes up and comes back to work after a while, who would want her in the future! It will be even more difficult to get married again. Even if you forcefully marry Wu Xiaojun in the future After getting married, wouldn’t it be necessary to live a life separated from the two places? The hardship and pain are hundreds of times higher than they are now. Why didn’t I think of this at the time, and I really regret letting Yanzi go to the army.

After much deliberation, Bai Lingwan still can't jump to a conclusion, she has to wait, maybe the two of them will go to Pingxi to express their heartfelt feelings, vent their anger, and weigh the stakes.Besides, Wu Xiaojun is a clear-headed person, so he won't fail to think of these things and agree to her request, unless he is determined to walk with Yanzi in the future.

Bai Lingyan waited restlessly for three days. Finally, she waited for the ringtone of the extension phone. She eagerly held it in her hand. Seeing that it was an area code from another place, her heart sank and she ran outside to pick up the public phone. Pa Pa Pa Pa dialed a series of numbers, and Bai Lingyan's familiar voice came from the other party, "Sister, I'm in Yuanzhen, let me tell you."

Bai Lingwan was so angry, she opened her mouth and scolded angrily, "Damn girl, why are you so ignorant, come back quickly!" After finishing speaking, she hung up the phone with a "snap".Looking up at the sky, I was stunned for a long time, feeling that I was talking too aggressively with Yanzi, so why did I put down the phone without asking any questions.Then he called the other party again, and the man who answered the phone said it was a public phone, and the two young people who called just now had gone away.

With her sister's letter of approval, Bai Lingwan didn't dare to delay, and hurried home to tell her parents.

Sun Huiying said with a livid face, "Xiaowan, I have worked so hard to keep the swallow, but you let her slip away so easily, my efforts are in vain."

Bai Lingwan said angrily, "You think you are smart, do you know how bitter Yanzi is? Do you know how deep the love between the two of them is? Do you know how scared she is when you mention it? Don't think about the consequences. Reckless left her, can the person who keeps her keep her heart? Didn't she run away willingly, I don't know what you were thinking at the time!"

Sun Huiying said angrily, "Didn't I do my best for her? Don't blame that damned rascal Wu Xiaojun when something goes wrong. He's blaming me here. I don't want this girl anymore. She can go crazy as she likes!"

Bai Yijia stared at Sun Huiying and said angrily, "It's all your good deeds, you're still excited after saying a few words about you. Your attention is the most sincere, and you have many ways. See how you can get the swallow back quickly, the more time you have The longer it is, the worse it is for the two families."

Sun Huiying said dejectedly, "Go and send a telegram to Wu Xiaojun's house, and tell me I'm dead!"

Bai Yijia said angrily, "Fart, I don't even have an address, where can I send it. Xiaowan, where is Yuanzhen the phone you answered?"

Bai Lingwan said in embarrassment, "Later I called again and said it was a public phone."

Bai Yijia's face turned green with anger, and she pointed at Sun Huiying's nose and said, "Look, you are the one who forced the swallow away. Find a way! Why don't you talk?"

Sun Huiying anxiously thought about the ants on the hot pot, Yuanzhen was so big, there was no specific address where to find it.After thinking about it, right, isn't Wu Xiaojun's brother in the county hospital? Call the hospital and ask, and he will find someone, so he said, "Call Brother Xiaojun and ask him to persuade Yanzi to come back quickly! "

Bai Yijia reprimanded, "You can figure it out, you don't know the phone number of their county hospital, and you don't even know Brother Xiaojun's name, who do you ask?"

Bai Lingwan said impatiently, "Dad, you and Mom go to Yuanzhen and bring Yanzi back!"

Bai Yijia lowered her head and thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "No, I don't have the face to meet people. What do I say when I go? I just say I'm here to pick up Yanzi, and I'm not an old man to pick up my daughter. I can't say it. If I say I agree with her If they don't agree to their marriage, wouldn't it be a joke."

Sun Huiying said with a mournful face, "Hey, the swallow has lost all face, why go to see someone. Leave her alone, can the Wu family still eat her?"

Bai Lingwan stomped her feet angrily, "I've never seen such a cruel mother like you. Yanzi is not my eldest sister, and she will not resist at your mercy. If Yanzi doesn't come back in three to five years, just wait and cry! Teeth grinding, whether it is light or heavy depends on the two of you."

After Bai Lingwan left full of resentment, Bai Yijia glared at Sun Huiying a few times, and left home angrily to return to Pingxi.As soon as I entered the house, I suddenly felt a chill in my heart, and secretly complained to Bai Lingyan, even if your mother made thousands of mistakes, you shouldn't treat her like this. Struggle, didn't you deliberately sprinkle salt on our hearts by doing this, to embarrass us.It seems that you have raised this silly girl for nothing.

The more Bai Yijia thought about it, the angrier she became. She looked up and saw Bai Lingyan's medical books on the table. She couldn't help but pick up a book and tore it up, "It's all your fault, if the swallow doesn't Studying medicine, if you don’t meet Wu Xiaojun in medical school, where would you be today. Books, you are the root of the disaster, you are the root of the disaster, people are gone, so what use is there for you.”

While talking to herself, Bai Yijia got excited. It took more than half an hour to tear up all of Bai Lingyan's books before she fell on the bed like a deflated ball and slept for two days before going to bed. work.

Wu Xiaojun brought Bai Lingyan home suddenly. Wu Pingshun and Xiaojun's mother were very surprised and puzzled, and hurriedly called Wu Xiaojun aside, and said worriedly, "Xiaojun, why are you so stupid, how dare you bring her back?" Don't you think it's not enough for relatives and friends to poke our family's spine in the back? What's the point of bringing her back? It's impossible to say that she is your wife, or that she is your partner. If she stays for three or two days, hell If she left without knowing it, she can still hide it. If she stays here, and her family comes crying for someone again, what should we do? Once this matter is publicized, it must not spread throughout the west of the city. At that time, she patted her buttocks and lifted her legs and left like a foreigner, what face do you have to stay here. Now she is a hot potato, let her go quickly, lest you have long nights and dreams."

Wu Xiaojun said in great embarrassment, "Father, mother, she has had a falling out with her parents. She would rather die than see her parents' faces again. If I don't bring her back, she will go out and wander. I know her temper." , I can do what I can say. She became what she is today. It's all because of me. I can't just let her go and watch her become a homeless girl who can't go back. I can’t think too much about what will happen in the future, I can only think about it later.”

Xiaojun's mother said distressedly, "His father, Lingyan is difficult enough. If there is any accident, our Xiaojun will owe him a lifetime. We can't find a daughter-in-law for our own face or worrying about affecting Xiaojun. Xiaojun does something unconscionable, and shut out the poor child Lingyan!"

Wu Pingshun sighed and said, "Xiaojun, you must drive me to death!"

Bai Lingyan saw that Wu Pingshun and Xiaojun's mother were still the same as before, treating herself like their own daughters, without any resentment at all, feeling warm and harmonious in her heart, very relaxed, and quickly integrated into the life of Xiaojun's family.

In the first few days, people in the village were still talking about it.Watching Wu Xiaojun and Bai Lingyan go to work in the fields talking and laughing, and walking side by side in front of and behind the village in their spare time, everyone gradually accepted that Bai Lingyan was Wu Xiaojun's unmarried daughter-in-law, and stopped talking nonsense .

The weather this year is strange. It has been more than a month and there has been little rain. The earth seems to be on fire.The villagers saw that the fresh and tender crop seedlings had turned yellow and could no longer sprout a green shoot. Thinking of the sadness brought about by the failure of the harvest, their hearts were bleeding anxiously.People who didn't want to wait any longer set up sprinklers to irrigate the ground beside the well.

Bai Lingyan and Wu Xiaojun walked around the field and saw many people watering the field, so they tried to persuade Wu Pingshun, who was distressed and upset, and hid at home, sulking.

Seeing that Wu Baiqiang's family in Lindi had already finished watering, Bai Lingyan and Wu Xiaojun said, "Xiaojun, his family's land will be watered soon, tell him not to evacuate, and water your family's land while it is here."

Wu Xiaojun nodded, came up to Wu Baiqiang, and said with a smile, "Uncle Baiqiang, let me spare you some time and use your machine to pour mine over."

There are not many sprinklers in the village, and they are often set up on a well to evacuate their own fields to other fields immediately after watering.

Wu Baiqiang said in embarrassment, "Xiaojun, it's not that uncle won't help you. I borrowed this machine from your Aunt Chun'e, and there are still several acres that haven't been watered. You should think of other ways."
