But Aunt Su didn't care. She entered the kitchen and asked in a loud voice: "I'm talking to you, do you hear me?"
"Dong dong dong"
There was still the sound of chopping ribs, but Su Jin didn't speak.
"I said the child didn't say anything about you, why are you angry?"
"When I was a kid, my grandma scolded me for wasting money and wasting the family's rations. She wanted to sell me for dried sweet potatoes. She didn't scold you. How come you were so angry that you wanted to jump into the river."
"Don't talk about it from afar, let's just say that last month, my second uncle said that Jinbao was lazy and didn't say anything to you. Aren't you so angry that you went all the way to my uncle's house to argue with him? If you said that I can't be angry with my child, then your child Why were you so angry when you were told that?" Su Jin looked indifferent, as if she was a different person in the narrow kitchen.
Su Jin like this made Aunt Su a little strange. She couldn't help but take a few steps back. After reflecting on what she had done, she was a little confused. Why did she feel that Su Jin was so scary just now.
Su Jin didn't care about Aunt Su's reaction. She killed the fish neatly. Just as she was about to say something, Aunt Su suddenly met the fish's strange white eyes. She suddenly trembled, her mind went blank, and she immediately forgot what she wanted to say. .
Su Jin, with blood on her hands, looked back at Aunt Su, "Mom, didn't I learn this behavior of protecting babies from you? I am a mother for the first time, and I want to be a mother who loves her children as much as you do."
"You said you should remember the bitter and remember the sweet. I think it's enough now. I heard that children have very good memories. For example, I can still remember that when I was two years old, you saved your own food rations in order to make sure you had enough to eat. I almost... starve."
"Zhenzhen and Qi Zheng will always remember their current suffering, and they will become upright, kind and outstanding people in the future."
Su Jin's words brought Aunt Su's memory back to the distant past. At that time, their family was really poor. More than ten people from four generations of the family were crowded in a small courtyard. Her mother-in-law, who was partial to her brother-in-law, was in charge of the family's food and supplies. salary.
Because her body was injured when she gave birth to Daya, she knew that Daya was her only hope in the future, so she would rather go hungry than let Daya be fed.
Although she had a formal job at that time as a fitter in a steel factory, her rank was low, her working hours were short, and her salary was not high. Her husband was only an apprentice in a state-owned hotel, and his salary was also low. Plus, he was the eldest son. Make up your mind to separate the family.
The second uncle and his wife are both working, and they have a son and a daughter. The brother-in-law is the mother-in-law's favorite. The father-in-law has a job, and the mother-in-law concentrates on raising the children, so she has to cook for the whole family when she comes back from get off work, and on weekends. Wash the whole family's clothes.
She also asked why, and her mother-in-law said that after she gave birth to a daughter, she would not have another daughter in the future. She and Daqiang would have to rely on their two brothers in the future, so she would have to pay more.
How miserable she was at that time. Even though she and her husband both had jobs, her life was like soaking in coptis. She was so miserable that she wondered if the birth of a daughter had caused her suffering.
Later, there was really no other way. The family only gave Da Ya a clear porridge with only a few grains of rice in it. It was as clear as boiled water and they were reluctant to give her even whole grains.
She was afraid that Daya would starve to death, so she fought with her mother-in-law and her sisters-in-law, and went to steal the white eggs that her mother-in-law cooked for her uncle who was studying. At that time, she was called a shrew by others and a crazy woman by her husband's family.
Later, with Jinbao, she straightened her back, separated her family, and her life really got better. Only then did she become the kind Aunt Su that others said, and the Aunt Su who loved her children.
Perhaps it was touching some bad memories, Aunt Su didn't say anything more, she didn't even take the fish and pork from Su Jin's house, nor did she encourage Su Jin to go to her husband's house to get food, she just left in despair.
Zhenzhen and Qizheng came out of the room when they heard it was quiet outside. Zhenzhen had tears in her eyes. It turned out that her mother was almost sold when she was a child. Her mother was so pitiful and miserable.
She held her brother's hand emotionally and said, "Brother, my mother is a mother for the first time, and we are babies for the first time. We have to help each other.
Don't talk back to your mother again. "
"How could I talk back to my mother?" Li Qizheng felt a little awkward when his sister said that.
For a mother who didn't have enough to eat when she was a child and was almost sold for dried sweet potatoes, giving them food, clothes and clothing is a good thing for them.
Facing his sister's distrustful eyes, Li Qizheng blushed shamefully, "As long as my mother doesn't let me remember the bitterness and sweetness, I won't talk back. I'm already bitter enough."
After saying that, he went downstairs to play with his friends. Compared with his grandmother's, he still liked his friends here, at least they wouldn't let him play the role of a devil.
"The food will be ready soon. You can follow your father when he comes back. We won't wait for you to eat." Su Jin heard the sound of opening the door and knew that Li Qi was about to go downstairs to play, so she shouted in the kitchen.
"I know!" Li Qizheng replied, took his sister's hand and ran away.
Grandma Zhao was telling the old sisters what she had just seen upstairs. In the blink of an eye, she saw two children coming downstairs.
Seeing Zhenzhen's eyes glowing red, he patted her grandson on the shoulder and asked her to go play with the two children.
After several children ran away, she continued: "This Su Jinniang is really hard for me to see clearly. My daughter is also a piece of meat that has fallen off her body. How can she be willing to be an old scalper?"
"No, but no matter what, Su Jin is a grateful person and understands her mother's hard work in supporting her to go to college."
"What's the hard work of supporting college students? There are subsidies for going to college, and it doesn't cost anything."
"You don't understand. Aunt Su has allowed her daughter to study all the time. It's already very good that she didn't let her drop out of school and work."
"But no matter what, you can't exploit your daughter and son-in-law like this. It's also Li Fendou's mother who hasn't been around for a long time. She didn't know about it. If she knew about it, she wouldn't be able to fight."
"you are right."
"Zhenzhen's eyes were red just now. Her grandmother must have told her about it. I think it must have been for the two thousand yuan."
"After all, Su Jin is too filial and obedient to her parents..."
Retired old ladies have nothing to do, so they can only chatter every day. What happened at Su Jin's house has become a hot topic among them, and they have been chatting about it for a week.
So when Li Fendou came back, he still resisted the glare of the old ladies and quickly took the two children home. He also couldn't understand why those aunts and mothers paid so much attention to him these days. They didn't really think that he would fight. Wife.
The bitter thing is that even if he had this suspicion, he couldn't explain it, and they didn't say it to his face.
But as soon as he entered the house and smelled the aroma of meat, he put all those problems behind him and hurriedly went to the kitchen to help his wife serve food.
While eating, he suddenly thought of meeting his eldest brother when he went to work in Tushui Village today, so he said to Su Jin: "I met my eldest brother in Tushui Village today. He seemed to be there to buy peppers. The eldest brother said we Mom is coming to see the kids this weekend and may have to stay for a while.”
Su Jin thought about it, and in her memory, she didn't seem to get along with this mother-in-law often, because Dahe Village was far away from the provincial capital, and she had to take nearly four hours of driving every time she came. Her mother-in-law also got carsick, so she didn't like to come.
Every time I come here, I always bring meat and vegetables, and then I go back in a hurry. Now I want to stay for a long time, maybe because I heard about the things that happened to the original owner’s natal family.
