Dashan Makes a Living 1984: Chapter 6 shame

   Chapter 6 006: Shame

  Wang Tianxiao came to the next door, kicked them away, walked to Yu Xiaofeng who was huddled in front of the pot, picked up the rag next to him, and swiped it back and forth twice from his mouth.

  The rag was wet, and Wang Tianxiao was so strong that it was visible to the naked eye. Two lines of redness appeared on Yu Xiaofeng's face immediately, and it swelled up.

   "Ah! You...you dare to hit me!"

  Yu Xiaofeng jumped up, pointing at Wang Tianxiao and was about to scold him, but seeing his ferocious look, she was frightened and lost her confidence.

   "Keep your mouth clean. If you hear **** and pee from your mouth again, I will hit you once."

   After speaking, he threw the rag on Yu Xiaofeng's face and turned to leave.

  Going back to the cliff again, Li Wanfu asked him to push the things back and unload them, and he had to go back.

   "Uncle, go down and sit for a while."

   "No, no, no," Li Wanfu shook his head timidly, "Go down and embarrass you and Lili..."

   "Who are you to lose, you are my father, what is there to be ashamed of, whoever wants to say anything about you, see if I don't smack her mouth." Wang Tianxiao said happily.

  Li Wanfu looked at his son-in-law unexpectedly, wondering why the child suddenly changed his temper, and he was never so tough before.

   "Forget it, I came here secretly, they don't know at home..."

  Wang Tianxiao sighed inwardly.

Every family has its cupboard.

   There are also a lot of problems with the wife. The uncle and brother are mean and mean. If they know that the father-in-law gives food and firewood to the married daughter, they don’t know what will happen.

  According to the customs here, a married girl is the water that is thrown out.

  How can you post back!

  The kind old man in front of him is the father of his wife. He doesn't know where his parents are, so he loves his poor daughter with all his heart.

  But he didn't even have a chance to enter his daughter's house.

  If it was only because of this side, Wang Tianxiao could still handle it, but when it comes to the big uncle, he has nothing to do for the time being.

   I had no choice but to take the wheelbarrow in my hand and let my father-in-law wait.

  The wheelbarrow was a bit difficult to steer. Wang Tianxiao hadn’t pushed it for decades, and his technique was a little rusty. In addition, the weather was cold and slippery. When he pushed the wheelbarrow downhill in the kang courtyard, the wheelbarrow turned over and all the contents spilled out.

  The wheat grass on the top fell to one side, revealing two cloth bags containing grain below, one bag of corn, and one bag of ground flour.

   There is also a Chinese cabbage and a small bag of potatoes.

  Wang Tianxiao saw that the overturned car was not far from his cave, so he didn't load the car, and took the bags back to the cave.

   "Ask my parents if they are okay later." The ground was too slippery, and Li Yali felt that she was not feeling well today, so she didn't dare to get off the kang.

   "Okay, let uncle come over after we move up."

   Both of them tacitly avoided the embarrassing fact.

   "Is it grandpa?" Xiao Wang Fang was lying on the bed with her legs crossed, flipping through the missing comic books. It was the half volume of "The Female Generals of the Yang Family" picked up by Wang Tianxiao.

  Children like to read stories very much, but Wang Tianxiao has no extra money to buy them. Later, she grew up and became a writer, perhaps to make up for the regrets of her childhood.

   "It's your grandfather, do you want to see him?"

  Wang Fang shook her head, "I don't know him well, didn't you say you shouldn't greet strangers casually?"

  Wang Tianxiao and his wife looked at each other, speechless and bitter.

   It's not the child's fault that the child doesn't know her grandfather, and they can't blame her for her childish speech.

  Going out again, mother Zhang Meifeng lifted the curtain and came out, saying coldly: "A man must be honest, whether your surname is Wang or Li, you don't feel ashamed to take food from beggars."

  Mother's voice has always been loud, and she has no scruples about the face of her father-in-law on the edge of the cliff.

  Speaking of which, although the two families are in-laws, there are many inextricable contradictions.

  First of all, there are irreconcilable contradictions between Wangjiacun and Lijiacun.

  The people of the previous generation in Wangjia Village, that is, the grandfather of Wang Tianxiao's great-grandfather was a big landowner. The entire Wangjia Village and Lijia Village are almost all the land of the Wang family ancestors.

  Later, Mrs. Wang liked to gamble. Not only did he lose money to a man surnamed Li, he even lost his concubine to the Li family.

   Thus formed the later Lijia Village.

  Because Lijiacun is the descendant of the concubine, and Wangjiacun is the main house, so Wangjiacun Wang’s children not only hate Lijiacun, but also look down on them.

  The two villages have gone through several generations, and things have changed for a long time, but this kind of conflict between villages still exists, and I don’t know how many times there have been fighting in the village.

  As the eldest of Wangjiacun’s generation, Zhang Meifeng naturally inherited the grievances of the previous generation. Even Yu Xiaofeng, the third daughter-in-law, scolded Li Wanfu for this reason.

  Because of this, the Wang family basically didn't like to see Li Yali, no matter whether she was a good person or not.

  Wang Tianxiao and Li Yali met through a person from a forestry farm. One of Li Yali's uncles worked in the forestry farm. Seeing Wang Tianxiao's hard work and steadfastness, he introduced them to each other while his niece was visiting him.

   Unexpectedly, Li Yali fell in love with Wang Tianxiao at a glance, and they finally walked together under the help of her uncle.

  The two elders of the Li family are very kind and simple. Although they feel that their daughters may suffer if they marry, they just agree with each other and don't interfere.

  But the Wang family disagreed with this marriage.

  From the very beginning, Zhang Meifeng obstructed her in many ways, even for a time not allowing Wang Tianxiao to go home, forcing her to sever the relationship with her son.

But Wang Tianxiao already liked Li Yali very much at this time, and he was willing to give up no matter what. He was also stubborn. Since his mother didn't want to see him, he took his wife to stay in the mountains for more than a year, and only returned home when his daughter Wang Fang was born. Zhang Meifeng had no choice but to see Li Yali.

  There is another more subtle reason why Zhang Meifeng doesn't want to see Li Yali.

  When Wang Tianxiao's father, Wang Fusheng, was buying hair in Lijia Village, he accidentally fell into an abandoned pit yard and found that he had been cold for more than a day.

  Zhang Meifeng poured this resentment into her hatred of Lijiacun, thinking that her husband was killed. Therefore, he didn't like Li Yali, the daughter-in-law of the Li family village.

   In short, it was a mess. Even though she knew in her heart that this had nothing to do with Li Yali, there were always knots that couldn't be solved.

   "Mom, I live my own life, and it's up to me whether I lose face or not, so you don't need to worry about me anymore."

Wang Tianxiao said lightly, and added: "Also, I hope that in the future, I don't want to say anything about my father-in-law. I don't like to hear it. He is my wife's father, that is, my elder. He married his daughter to me, but It's not here to be angry."

   "Second brother, you..."

"That's it, mother, don't force me, you know my temper, if you do this again, I don't know how to get along with you. I have always been filial to you, if you love your child, don't make things difficult for me. "

   After speaking, he left regardless of what his mother said.

Pushing the small wheelbarrow back to the edge of the cliff, his father-in-law was still waiting for him alone. After taking the car, his father-in-law said, "Then I'll go back." After walking a few steps, he suddenly remembered something. Trembling in his pocket, he took out a black handkerchief.

   Uncovered layer by layer, there was a piece of ten yuan inside, a few pieces of one yuan, and some small change.

He kept Mao Mao and the cents for himself, and stuffed all the above ten yuan to Wang Tianxiao, "Lili is about to have a baby, she needs to eat more delicious food, she will be in poor health when she is young, so don't leave anything behind." root cause."

  Wang Tianxiao looked at the money in his hand with mixed feelings.

  Li Wanfu learned from others as a carpenter, making money by making farm tool handles and weaving some baskets for others. He was exiled in Lijia Village.

  He counts all the money he can earn, and he wants to secretly give it to his daughter without telling the children at home. I don’t know how long he has worked so hard to save.
