Although Yang Huamei didn't like Tan's irritable tone when questioning, she seemed to think the worst about Dabai and Xiaohei at every turn.
However, Tan's caring attitude was very helpful to Yang Huamei.
Everyone wants to be cared about, and they all like to enjoy the feeling of being regarded as a treasure in the palm of others.
Therefore, Yang Huamei was still willing to tell Mrs. Tan the inside story of her return.
"I came back this time because of two things."
"The first thing is Hongmei and the others."
As a result, as soon as she finished speaking, Tan couldn't hold back her anger.
"How is it? I just asked if it was Hongmei? They can't tolerate you, poisonous woman. Look, isn't this coming true?"
"Mom, no, it's not like that. Just listen to what I have to say first!"
"Okay, you say it, you say it, I won't interrupt."
Yang Huamei continued: "On this trip, they accidentally discovered that the child Zhuang Zhuang seemed to be deaf, so they took him to the doctor for treatment. After the doctor said there was no cure, Hongmei cried a lot at that time and did not eat for two consecutive meals. Didn’t eat.”
"But when I got up the next day, when she saw Zhuangzhuang again, she changed her face. The child still wanted to be held by her as usual. She looked so disgusted. I was so angry that I had a fierce argument with her. One!"
"What? Mei'er, you mean... after the child was diagnosed to be deaf-mute, the child's biological mother was the first to dislike the child?" Mrs. Tan's face was full of shock and astonishment.
Yang Huamei sighed. Now that she talks about the scene at that time, she still feels overwhelmed!
"How can any mother in the world despise her own child? That Hongmei is such a wicked ghost!" Ms. Tan spat.
"Besides, as a mother, she should be more distressed and anxious than others when the child looks like this. Why is she taking the lead in rejecting it? It's outrageous! It's inhumane!"
Yang Huamei nodded angrily and helplessly, "I'll just say something unpleasant. The child is innocent and the most pitiable. How can you dislike it?"
"I think back when Shuan Zi was not in good health, my mother-in-law was so distressed that she would always blame herself for it, saying that she was the one who harmed Shuan Zi."
"In Zhuangzhuang's case, I'm just going to put it bluntly. Maybe Hongmei ate something bad when she was pregnant, or she did something, and this was the retribution on the child!"
Mrs. Tan responded to Yang Huamei's words by slapping her hands hard, "We both thought of going together, and that's probably what happened!"
Yang Huamei felt that she had met a close friend this time, and continued: "She dislikes me Zhuangzhuang so much, maybe she has a guilty conscience. When she saw Zhuangzhuang being deaf and mute, she thought of the shameful things she had done and received retribution for. , thinking about the cycle of heaven, I became even more afraid, so I deliberately ignored the child and stayed away from the child. I really couldn’t stand it, so I wanted to take the child back to the village to live a life without being looked down upon in front of her!"
Mrs. Tan also nodded vigorously, "Yes, it's better to come back to the village. In the village, even children can run away from the front and back houses."
"My relatives and friends are all in the village. You can hang out and visit wherever you want. Unlike in the town, so many people can only stay in the shop. I'm afraid it's not convenient to visit the neighbors next door, right?"
Mentioning this, Yang Huamei's face became ugly and ugly.
Because when she first arrived in the town, she still followed the village's custom. If her child wanted to play outside, she would take her child and visit the shops next door and across the street.
In her concept, since everyone opens a shop on the left and across the street, they are more or less neighbors. Even if they are not as enthusiastic as those in the village who have lived together for generations, at least they will give face and symbolize Sexy hospitality, right?
Unexpectedly, I visited several stores, and they were either lukewarm or simply ignored.
The owner of the shop across the street is even less of a thing. He directly tells his grandparents to go out and don't delay their business.
Yang Huamei was so angry that she lamented that the people on the street were so inhumane. Even though they lived next to each other, they were so indifferent and snobbish!
"It's better to be in the village. I like to stay in the village. I followed Zhuangzhuang to the town before, but now Zhuangzhuang has followed me back to the village. I won't bother to go anywhere in the future. Live in the village!" Yang Huamei said solemnly.
Tan, however, was dubious.
"Let me tell you, Dabai has to get rid of that evil-minded Hongmei. He even despises his own child and asks Dabai to marry another one!"
When it comes to this issue, Yang Huamei loses her temper.
"Mother, mother, why didn't I plan this?"
"But it's no use even if I try my best, Dabai is so rare!"
"Hongmei, I'm pregnant again, it's almost two months already!"
"What? You're pregnant again? This one is just one year old. It's too soon. Is the hen laying eggs?" Ms. Tan was also surprised.
But then I understood why Yang Huamei was silent and why he had to back down from Hongmei.
This eldest grandson is already clearly deaf and mute, and now the hope for the second grandson in Hongmei's belly must be pinned on the second one.
"Hey, it seems that this red plum can't be driven away. What an injustice!" Mrs. Tan shook his head and sighed, sweating for his old daughter.
Why did you end up with such a troubled daughter-in-law who couldn't get rid of her?
"I hope this second baby is normal and doesn't have any more defects!" Ms. Tan said.
Yang Huamei quickly waved her hand to Mrs. Tan: "Mom, don't say those words. It's bad luck if you say it. It doesn't matter if it's a grandson or a granddaughter, as long as it's a healthy child! I won't choose anymore, I really won't choose!"
Mrs. Tan also jumped on this topic wisely.
After Zhuang Zhuang had eaten and drank enough, he sat on Yang Huamei's lap and dozed off.
Mrs. Tan looked around, "It's been so long since I brought this bowl of rice to you, but you haven't eaten it yet. It's all cold!"
"It's okay, it's just a bowl of vegetarian food anyway. If it's cold, you can still eat it!" Yang Huamei said.
When Tan raised his head and took a look, he felt a little ashamed.
"I'll take you to your third sister-in-law's house for a nice meal later, but that will have to wait until your third brother and your father come back."
"Where are my father and my third brother?"
"I went to the county town to have my leg treated. I've been here for only half a month!"
"Ah? Can my father's leg be cured? This is really good news..."
Then, Yang Huamei couldn't wait to ask Mr. Tan about old Yang's head and legs.
At noon, it was extremely hot outside. The sun's rays made the ground in the yard crack, and the cicadas on the branches were too hot to chirp.
There are basically no people working in the fields. Of course, there are still some people who can't care about the heat and will go to the crop fields to take care of them.
But in the main room of Lao Wang's house, Zhuang Zhuang was lying on the bed next to him, and Yang Huamei was sitting next to him with a bowl of rice in his hands, and at the same time, he took the time to ask about Lao Yang's head.
