reborn peasant mother

Chapter 12

Lanterns, also known as qi-death wind lamps, are made of kerosene, and a glass cover is installed outside the lamp base. In the seventies and 80s, they were almost a must-have item in farmers' homes.

.

At dawn, Feng Yujiang didn't come back, and Da Ya's eyes were red and swollen like peaches, so she came back accompanied by Wu Shuanggui.She pushed open the door with a clatter of both hands, and Mother Zhong was dozing off, so she was startled.

"You girl, why did you run back?"

"Why did I come back? Grandma, is it because my mother is dead and I can't come back?" Da Ya clenched her fists, her body trembling, tears fell down her eyes as soon as she blinked.

Embarrassed and annoyed, Mother Zhong couldn't hold back for a while.This eldest granddaughter, who was like a lump when she was young, has a good temper and has never talked back to Zhong's mother.Mother Zhong couldn't help but lower her face, and scolded:
"What nonsense, isn't this still looking for? You are a new daughter-in-law who just passed the family. If you don't stay at your in-law's house, you can't die without opening your mouth. What do you call it!"

"New daughter-in-law? When I went out, my mother was beaten and scolded. What did she do wrong?"

"You..." Mother Zhong held her breath in her chest, angry bitterly.

Wu Shuanggui, who was silent all the time, stretched out his hand to stop Daya, and comforted him: "Chuanxiu, don't worry, your mother will definitely find her back."

Zhong Chuanxiu is Da Ya's name.According to the unwritten rules in the countryside here, once a girl gets married, she can no longer be called by her nickname.

How could Zhong Chuanxiu be in a hurry!On this wedding night, the sky was still dark, and she vaguely heard her mother-in-law and aunt whispering in the yard that her mother might have jumped into the river and died.

Zhong Chuanxiu touched tears on his sleeve and asked, "Where are Erya and Gangzi?"

"Erya and Gangzi..." Mother Zhong shifted her eyes guiltily, and said, "Those two little things were messy last night, so I don't know where they went. But your father has already found them." .”

"Hey, my mother can't be found, Erya and Gangzi are also lost, grandma, you can stay at home with peace of mind."

"I'm at ease? How are you talking to grandma? I broke my heart for you unfilial white-eyed wolves, and blamed me, and I didn't tell her to die and jump into the river. Is it less troublesome for me to worry about? Shame on me." I see, you have lost your conscience, you don’t have any scum of conscience! You’ve gone out of business and your wings are stiff. Okay, okay, I’m going to die right now, your mothers are famous and profitable after I’m dead..."

Mother Zhong opened her posture to make a big fuss, Zhong Chuanxiu turned her head and ran out the door.Wu Shuanggui hurriedly followed, left Mother Zhong alone and sat down on the ground, cursing unceasingly.

Zhong's mother was also anxious. If Feng Yujiang really died, although her natal family would not make trouble, the Zhong family's reputation was always bad. It would be difficult for Zhong Jipeng to find someone he liked.Besides, there are several children who are high and low, and they will have to rely on Zhong's mother to grow up. When will this crime end?

"...This cowardly woman, how crazy is she? This is not giving me a way out! What evil have I done to raise such a careless little father..."

At noon, Zhong Jipeng led Erya and Gangzi back.The two children looked for their mother all night last night, cried for half the night, and ran out again early in the morning. When they came back, they were muddy and hungry, and Zhong Jipeng couldn't help feeling distressed.
