"Ah? This girl's father is dead? How did he die? When did it happen?"
"Oh, you're not very old, are you? You've committed a sin..."
"Hey, you guys believe this, the fourth lady said that on purpose!"
"Ah? Is that so? My fourth daughter-in-law, this is your fault. You can't curse your son-in-law like this..."
Mrs. Liu put her hands on her hips and said, "If I say he is dead, he is dead. If he is alive, he is dead. If he is dead, he is dead. Who dares to disobey?"
The villagers who were basking in the sun under the wall were all frightened by Liu's strong words, and they were all dumbfounded.
Yang Ruoqing smiled apologetically at them and said, "It's okay, it doesn't matter whether Yu Jinbao is dead or alive, it has nothing to do with our old Yang family. Our old Yang family can afford to raise a granddaughter."
Then, she directly grabbed Liu's arm and dragged her away from the scene.
Chunxia was ignorant and kept turning her head to look under the wall while walking, with a pair of innocent eyes open.
It wasn't until they walked away that the discussion broke out again under the wall.
"Tsk, tsk, things in the fourth room of the old Yang family are really messy!"
"This is not called chaos. Every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. It's just that the scriptures in their fourth house are more difficult to recite than those in other families."
"I think it's a mess. A mute girl has been stranded, and a son with a mouth is at home. Now he has brought back a fool granddaughter to raise. I heard that every bit of the money Yang Huaming earns is given to the one who comes later. The little wife gave birth to a son who was saved by Tiedan, but Yang Huaming did not care about the children Liu had given birth to."
"These four rooms are really messy..."
…
After walking for quite some time, Ms. Liu shook off Yang Ruoqing's hand.
She said very unhappily: "Qing'er, you shouldn't have dragged me away. You had to let me stay and explain to everyone the bad things that bastard Yu Jinbao did, so that everyone can see clearly what he is." What kind of dog man is he? He deserves to be killed!"
Yang Ruoqing shook her head when she heard this, "Fourth Aunt, even if Yu Jinbao is really a heinous person, do you think telling these things to those people will do anything except provide them with something to talk about today?"
"There won't be those warriors among them who will fight against injustice. No one will help you beat up Yu Jinbao. At most, they will just sigh a few times."
"Then I have no hope. Who would expect them to help me fight Yu Jinbao? I just say it to feel more comfortable." Liu said.
Hearing Liu's harsh words, Yang Ruoqing just laughed.
"If there are any sensible people among these people, they may say a few words along with your words, help to condemn Yu Jinbao a few words, and let you drink the Qi Qi Tang."
"But what if there are none of these people? When people say that the son-in-law is from your family, why was he blind? Then, Fourth Aunt, you will be in an even worse mood!"
Mr. Liu remained silent.
Because the situations analyzed by Yang Ruoqing have all happened before.
Even though it was about other things, even though she complained to people outside like this, when she was there, people listened to what she said and saw that she wasted her time talking. Say a few words along her lines.
She felt very happy at the time. By lobbying like this, she could get a lot of votes for herself!
Later, when she accidentally heard those people mentioning these things behind her back elsewhere, her words suddenly changed.
He no longer agreed with her face to face, but also raised doubts and dissatisfaction with her.
In the end, Ms. Liu felt that this was quite boring. Those people were really just having fun and would not really put themselves in your shoes to help you think and think.
"Fourth Aunt, it doesn't matter if you bring those interesting things outside and chat with the villagers, but when it comes to our old Yang family, especially the fourth house, I still strongly recommend that you don't go to outsiders. This will make us become the target of others' idle chatter, and there is no need to add material for everyone to talk about and laugh at, what do you think?"
Yang Ruoqing enlightened Mr. Liu again with earnest words.
Mrs. Liu looked at Yang Ruoqing, and then nodded seriously.
"Qing'er, what you said makes sense. I will make up my mind in the future and keep the family scandal in the public eye. I couldn't hold it back and just said a few words. The main thing is that I hate Yu Jinbao!" Liu said.
Yang Ruoqing nodded, "Well, everything is over. Now Chunxia has returned to He'er. Take good care of Chunxia in the future. You live your life by yourself. Don't worry about what others think or think, what do you think?"
Mrs. Liu nodded vigorously and smiled again on her face.
"It's better to stay with you, Qing'er. It's more comfortable. Everything can be taken care of for the better, and I can live in high spirits."
Faced with Mrs. Liu's flattery, Yang Ruoqing just shook her head.
Everyone has times when they are in a bad mood, depressed, confused, and depressed.
It's like I've read a sentence before. Although it's a bit literate, it still makes sense if you think about it carefully.
In the adult world, the heart is repaired at night, and then at dawn, it will be resurrected with new blood to welcome the world.
Mend things, and the days pass by, forgetting the bad things, leaving only sunny memories, this is the true meaning of life.
"This topic has changed. We are now at Lao Zhang's house."
Yang Ruoqing raised her finger.
Mrs. Liu looked in the direction Yang Ruoqing pointed, and she was already at the gate of Lao Zhang's house!
"Ha, there are indeed children's clothes and diapers hanging out in the yard. It really looks like that. Qing'er, don't you think so?"
Yang Ruoqing nodded, "Yes, this way it really looks like a complete family."
In the past few years, Zhang Youfu lived alone with his mother, who was paralyzed in bed. Their yard was dilapidated and consisted of three low thatched adobe houses.
Now married to Liao Meiying, Zhang Youfu renovated the house. The thatch was removed and replaced with tiles.
The yard at the entrance has also been tidied up. Now there are chickens and ducks in the yard. The clothes drying pole is set up on the wall of the yard, and it is full of clothes of adults and children to dry.
The smoke of birds was coming from the chimney of the kitchen, and Zhen'er was sitting at the door of the kitchen eating with a small bowl in her hand.
There was the sound of pots and pans coming from the kitchen. Not to mention, at first glance, it was really different from the past.
"Zhang Youfu, are you at home? Qing'er and I came over to visit!"
Mrs. Liu started shouting as soon as she arrived at the gate of the courtyard.
Yang Ruoqing turned around and told her: "Fourth Aunt, please be careful when you come to the house. The mother and child in the room may be sleeping!"
Mrs. Liu immediately covered her mouth, her eyes full of apology and smile.
She was so used to having a loud voice that she forgot about it.
Zhen'er was the first to see Mrs. Liu and Yang Ruoqing. The little guy stood up with a bowl in hand, walked a few steps forward, then stopped and looked at them from a distance.
"What's wrong? Do you not recognize Fourth Grandma or something? Come here, Fourth Grandma gives me a hug!"
Mrs. Liu bent down and clapped her hands towards Zhen'er.
Zhen'er saw Yang Chunxia, he hesitated, turned around and ran away.
Just when Zhang Youfu came out of the kitchen, Zhen'er bumped into Zhang Youfu's thigh.
"Zhen'er, does it hurt? Be careful!"
Zhang Youfu quickly bent down to check Zhen'er's face carefully and found that the child was fine. Zhang Youfu breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he straightened up and greeted Liu and Yang Ruoqing who had already entered the courtyard.
As for Zhen'er, she hid behind Zhang Youfu and looked at Yang Chunxia who was also hiding behind Yang Ruoqing with a pair of timid eyes.
The two children were looking at each other, and the adults were talking.
After saying hello, Mrs. Liu looked at Zhang Youfu's floral apron hanging around his waist and couldn't help but smile.
"I said Zhang Youfu, Mei Ying was in confinement, and you stole her floral apron to wear it. This is unethical, haha..."
Zhang Youfu blushed at Mr. Liu's teasing. He scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and said, "I'm going to give Mei Ying something to eat. I don't want to wear an apron. I'm afraid of getting my clothes dirty. It’s also troublesome to wash, which makes Fourth Aunt laugh.”
Mrs. Liu still smiled and said while laughing: "Not to mention, I have seen Mei Ying wear this floral apron, but Mei Ying is not as elegant and elegant when wearing it as you are wearing it!"
Zhang Youfu was made even more blushing and at a loss by Liu's joke.
Yang Ruoqing quickly smoothed things over for Zhang Youfu and said, "Brother Youfu, is my sister-in-law asleep? I'm coming over to see my sister-in-law and my eldest nephew, and to say a few words to my sister-in-law."
Zhang Youfu said hurriedly: "I haven't slept yet. She is still waiting with her eyes open for me to make food for her."
"But Fourth Aunt and Qing'er are here? Please come to the house quickly!" Liao Meiying's voice came from the west room.
Zhang Youfu quickly stretched out his hand and said, "Come in quickly."
Yang Ruoqing nodded and led Yang Chunxia inside. Before leaving, she didn't forget to take out a handful of red dates and stuff them into Zhen'er's pocket.
"Take it and eat it."
Zhen'er took the red dates, looked at Yang Ruoqing again, and whispered, "Thank you, Auntie."
Then, the boy turned around and ran back to the kitchen.
Zhang Youfu turned around and wanted to take care of Zhen'er, but he was busy greeting Yang Ruoqing and Liu, and he was a little overwhelmed.
Seeing this, Yang Ruoqing quickly said: "We are not outsiders. Brother Youfu, go to the kitchen and do your work first. Otherwise, the food will be burned into the lake."
Mrs. Liu curiously asked Zhang Youfu: "What delicious food are you cooking for me, Mei Ying?"
Zhang Youfu said: "Pork ribs soup noodles."
"Oh, that's a good thing, but don't burn the lake. Come on, fourth aunt will help you check it..."
After Mrs. Liu said this, she actually stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Youfu's arm to push him into the kitchen. Seeing this, Yang Ruoqing grabbed Ms. Liu's other arm and pulled her back.
"Don't worry, Fourth Aunt, Brother Youfu will catch the fever. You'd better go in with me to see my sister-in-law, mother and son!"
Just like that, Mrs. Liu was dragged directly into Liao Meiying's house by Yang Ruoqing.
In Liao Meiying's room, Liao Meiying was lying on the bed with a turban wrapped around her head, holding a baby in her arms.
The baby seemed to fall asleep while eating, but Liao Meiying did not put the baby down, but continued to hold the baby in her arms.
The windows at the front and back of the house are closed tightly. Only when the door is opened and closed, some air and wind flowing from outside will be brought in.
These are all specialties in this area, and I don’t know whose mouth it was passed down first. Anyway, generations of people who have been here have told the younger generations like this, saying that they should cover themselves during confinement and not be convulsed by the wind.
Regarding these things, to be honest, if Yang Ruoqing was thirty years old, she would probably reject them all at once.
You may feel that these are nonsense, and you must ventilate yourself at all times, because health experts have said it, a medical celebrity has said it, or an authoritative magazine has said it...
But nowadays, many of Yang Ruoqing's thoughts have changed.
She only believes in medicine, technology, and communications that come from modern civilization.
In the aspect of health preservation, it is broad and profound.
Experts, medical gurus, guidance from authoritative magazines...
A lot of it is bullshit!
Killing people is not worth their lives.
Or some wrong guidance of public opinion.
So sometimes, you might want to listen to the experience of the older generation.
They may not understand the mysteries and principles involved, but they use their generations of experience and bloody lessons to provide guidance for our younger generations.
Therefore, when the three of them entered the house, Yang Ruoqing closed the door behind her tightly to prevent the cold wind from outside from coming in and surprising the mother and child on the bed.
"Fourth Aunt, Qing'er, come and sit down quickly. Hey, is that... He'er's baby?"
On the bed, Liao Meiying saw the three people who came in. Although she was still a little weak after giving birth, it did not affect her enthusiasm at all.
Mrs. Liu quickly pushed Yang Chunxia to the bedside and asked her to call Liao Meiying: "Call Auntie!"
aunt?
Liao Meiying and Yang Ruoqing both looked at Liu in surprise.
Liao Meiying was shocked at first, but then she became enlightened. Then she smiled and said, "I'm a little older than He'er. I can call you whatever I want. We don't have to pay attention to that."
Yang Ruoqing's eyebrows twitched quietly.
To be honest, although I treat Liao Meiying like a sister-in-law, in fact, Liao Meiying, my sister-in-law, is younger than my sister-in-law.
why?
Because Yang Yongxian, the eldest brother, got married late, in a precise sense, Liao Meiying was not Yang Yongxian's first wife, but Li Xiuxin.
Later, Li Xiuxin and Yang Yongxian broke up, and Yang Yongxian was introduced to the then-elderly leftover girl Liao Meiying on a blind date.
Speaking of the topic of older leftover girls, Yang Ruoqing had to add again that it was not because there was anything wrong with Liao Meiying that she was stranded at home and became an older leftover girl.
But Liao Meiying is a miserable woman who meets unkind people. The man she was previously engaged to was half-hearted and ran away without hearing anything from her. Finally, she found out that she had started a family outside.
Her husband's family also had a bad conscience. They knew the truth but deliberately did not tell Liao Meiying.
Maybe she didn't know what to say, anyway, things just kept dragging on, leaving Liao Meiying to wait.
During those years of waiting, Liao Meiying, the daughter-in-law who had not yet entered the family, did a lot of sewing for her husband's elders and her brother-in-law.
It wasn't until later that others finally found out about this matter, and the news spread back to the village, so they couldn't hide it anymore...
Therefore, Liao Meiying is a miserable woman!
But she is also a kind-hearted woman!
