Crossing the farm gate, the whole family reunites in the disaster year
Chapter 42 Is Mother Also Someone Else?
Silang and Wulang subconsciously stood next to Lin, which made Feng very angry.
"You're such a heartless thing! I'm going to die of anger."
The two children shrank their heads.
Lin patted them soothingly and said, "Don't be afraid. Your mother has some misunderstandings about the discovery of the water source. She called you here to explain everything clearly."
Silang raised his head. The water was discovered by Third Aunt, so how could there be any misunderstanding?
Feng was now confident and pointed at Silang and asked, "Tell me, was it you and Wulang who discovered the water? To be honest, I don't have to be afraid here."
Silang was confused: "No, it was Aunt San who found it."
Feng was very disappointed: "Didn't you dig it out?"
Shiro scratched his head: "Is that so?"
Feng breathed a sigh of relief, twisted their ears, and pulled them aside, away from Lin.
"Why did I give birth to such a heartless bunch like you two? You are so rich, but you don't take the credit for your achievements. Instead, you just give face to your Third Aunt."
"It's just me. Look at other people, who cares whether you suffer or not?"
Silang felt something was wrong, so he protected his ears and struggled to break free from Feng's shackles.
"That's not how it's calculated. Aunt San found the place, and we just put in the effort."
"Aunt San didn't abandon us. Everyone in the village knows that we had a share in the discovery of the water source."
Even if his mother was unhappy, he had to say it because that was the fact.
Old Mrs. Cui nodded approvingly, thankfully Feng hadn't let the child go astray.
Go back and make an extra set of clothes for each person!
"How can they be the same? There are still different levels based on merit. I'm going to be mad at you." Feng grabbed Silang and twisted him.
"That's enough!" the village head said, "You can discipline the children however you want when you get home, but don't make a scene here."
Feng withdrew her hand awkwardly.
The village head looked at Shilang and said, "You understand what your mother meant. What do you think?"
Silang held Wulang tightly and left Feng's side.
"Uncle Lizheng, my mother is wrong. My fifth brother and I just swung our hoes a few times. Anyone else could have dug a hole in the stone wall."
Silang paused and looked at Third Aunt.
"My fifth brother and I are nothing. The most important people are Third Aunt and Third Brother. If it weren't for Third Aunt's guidance, we wouldn't have the opportunity to contribute."
"Uncle Lizheng, please don't listen to my mother."
The head of the village nodded continuously.
The village head's wife secretly touched Old Lady Cui and gave her an envious look. Old Lady Cui raised her head proudly, with pride in her eyes and eyebrows.
These are the good descendants of the Cui family.
"How could I have given birth to such cowardly and weak-minded people like you..."
Old Mrs. Cui responded crisply to what Feng hadn't finished saying. One side of Feng's already fat face was swollen.
Old Mrs. Cui changed her hand and made a full circle.
"They didn't learn bad things from you, thanks to our Cui family's good genes. How dare you criticize them? Don't think we don't know what you're thinking."
Feng's face was swollen and shiny, with both hands holding half of her face. She couldn't open her mouth to refute.
"Your father and I are not dead yet. Even if Silang and Wulang get some benefits, your father and I should be ranked first in terms of filial piety!"
Wu Lang poked his head out: "Grandma is right."
Shilang pulled him back with a dark face, telling him not to cause more trouble.
"Today, I made it clear to the village head. Erlang and his family are the grandchildren of the Cui family. Even without you, they are still the ancestors of the Cui family. Don't expect the second brother to come back to support you. If the second brother dares to say a word on your behalf, I will drive him away too."
Old Mrs. Cui spoke every word with such seriousness that she had never been so serious before.
Feng knew that her mother-in-law was really angry this time, so she didn't dare say another word and walked away in shame, covering her face.
Wulang didn't feel anything, but Silang looked at his mother's back and many scenes flashed through his mind.
There is a small room to the east of their house. It is very small and is used to store miscellaneous items. When the door is closed, no light can come in. Only by pulling the door panel can a ray of light sneak in from the gap.
The house is used to store miscellaneous items on weekdays, and if anyone makes my mother unhappy, they will also be stored in the house.
The room is so small that I can't even stretch my legs.
The copper lock was bought by my father in the county. It is very heavy and sturdy.
Two years ago, when Xiaoqi was less than two years old, he stole the meat that his mother hid in the cupboard. At that time, Xiaoqi could only say four words, "brother" and "sister". How could he understand that he could not eat his mother's things?
Mother found out.
The five of them knelt in a row in the yard. It was really cold in winter, so cold that Xiaoqi was staggering on his knees, and his little hands had changed color.
Xiaowu failed to snatch the item from him, and in the end he was locked up in a small dark room.
The Chinese New Year was just a few days away, and Dad hadn't come back yet, so Mom took the key and went back to her parents' home.
The second brother was very smart. He secretly compared the firewood piles of several families, picked out the thickest straw, and fed him water through the crack in the door.
The straw was used for three days and was not put away by my second brother until my mother came back. My second brother said that such a thick straw was hard to find. Sure enough, Xiaowu used it again a few days later.
Xiaoqi will go crazy with greed after the Chinese New Year.
In fact, Xiaoqi did not catch up with the good times. When they still lived in the old house, they could still eat meat.
Although grandma was fierce, Uncle San would secretly give them some meat.
Whenever there was meat on the table, Nai would go to the toilet halfway through eating. At that time, Xiaowu was still young and it took him a long time to chew a piece of meat. When Xiaowu swallowed the third piece of meat, Nai would just return to the table.
The timing is just right every time.
Unfortunately, after the family split up, my mother would not go to the toilet when eating meat.
There are only three bowls in the cupboard at home. One bowl is for vegetables, and the other two bowls are for my parents, one each. When my father is not at home, that bowl is used to hold meat.
My second brother seems to be omnipotent, he can even carve wood into small bowls...
Mother always said that she gave them a place to live and they had to work to repay her. Mother said, since she has good legs and arms, don't worry about her asking for food.
The second brother chopped firewood, he fetched water, Lidong lit the fire, Xiaowu cleaned the house, and Xiaoqi came late, so the work was divided among them.
The second brother would lead them up the mountain to find food. Every autumn during the harvest, they would carefully search the land that the villagers had harvested. Even if they walked through it all, they could pick up more than ten kilograms of grain.
He is not bragging, the second brother is really, really, really awesome!
The second brother said that Mr. Sun’s family was a hired farmhand, so there must be a lot of grain leaking from the fields. Sure enough, two kilograms of grain could be picked up from one acre of land.
But the second brother certainly didn't expect that Mr. Sun's dog would bite people.
They all accepted this kind of life. Later, they rarely talked about their father and mother. Although they lived in the same house, they would run around the village after work.
Just a secret: it’s very comfortable to lie on the straw stack after it has been exposed to the sun.
The days go by quickly when you’re running.
He'd learned a lot over the years. His second brother always had endless lessons to share. He said stealing was wrong, that one should remember the kindness of others and repay them in the future. He also said that others wouldn't treat them well for no reason, and that they had to rely on themselves...
That day, the second brother was giving them a lesson as usual. Lidong counted on her fingers and figured out that the second brother would have to talk for another half an hour. Lidong was very accurate in calculations, but she was wrong that time.
Because Xiaoqi could speak, his words made his second brother end their education early.
He asked, "Is mother also considered someone else?"
Hahahaha, finally there is a question that my second brother can’t answer.
Well, actually he couldn't answer that.
To this day, looking at his mother's departing figure, he still can't tell whether his mother is considered someone else.
He only knew that the five brothers and sisters could live well without a mother.
He secretly saw Third Aunt holding Xiaoliu and stuffing snacks into Xiaoliu's mouth, and he admitted that he was a little envious.
But it's not important.
He didn't mind his second brother holding him and stuffing snacks into his mouth.
He is not heavy!
Second brother can definitely carry it!
