"Father, mother, don't worry, I will take good care of my brother."
Su Xiaoling is very well-behaved, she can already hold a spoon, and she can do well in everything at home.
Su Chong and Su Hua also became sensible.
"Father, mother, don't worry, we will take care of ourselves. Don't worry about us at home."
Su Chong said seriously to Su Sanlang and Zhao that he was the eldest brother and he should take responsibility.
"Third uncle, third aunt, don't worry, there's still me."
Zhou Heng is also very sensible.
Su Sanlang and Mrs. Zhao were relieved and left home.
Su Sanlang was carrying fifty kilograms of white flour, and Zhao was carrying cloth. As soon as they went out, Chen Hu and Qian came over. Chen Da Niu and Chen Er Niu told them when they came back. When the two couples came over, they also told Su Sanlang and Qian.
Mrs. Zhao, feel free to go.
We have them at home.
Su Sanlang looked at Chen Hu, feeling warm in his heart. He patted Chen Hu on the shoulder and said, "Okay, then Heirniang and I will go."
Chen Hu's legs are now only slightly lame.
Because Su Xiaolu said that if he does Lajin exercises every day, one day he will not be lame, so Chen Hu practices every day. Now he walks slowly and no one can tell that he is lame.
Two families are close and support each other. This is what they call brothers.
After Su Sanlang and Mrs. Zhao left, Mrs. Qian asked Su Xiaoling to stop cooking and let her do it and eat together in the evening.
Su Sanlang and Zhao Shi also hurried towards Xiaohu Village with all their heart.
When I was tired on the road, I took a breath and continued on my way.
It was a bit tiring because we had to climb several mountains.
Su Sanlang was worried. As he was getting closer to Xiaohu Village, Su Sanlang suddenly said: "It would be great if the third and fourth sisters marry closer to each other in the future. Then we will visit them every year."
In the world's perception, a married girl is like water thrown away and will not visit her parents' home for several years.
My mother-in-law refused to let her go, and she would never leave her for the rest of her life. Even if they were close to each other, they would not see each other for many years.
Thinking about it, Su Sanlang sighed.
Mrs. Zhao smiled slightly and said, "Dad, it's still early for the third and fourth sisters. They will meet a good family."
Mrs. Zhao felt sad thinking about not being able to see each other for too long, but she didn't want Su Sanlang to be too melancholy.
So we changed the topic.
Su Sanlang looked at the village where people could already see the houses in the distance, and didn't think much about it.
There are forty or fifty households in Xiaohu Village, and half of them are named Hu, so it is called Xiaohu Village.
When the two entered the village, some villagers saw unfamiliar faces, so they stopped them and asked cautiously: "Who are you? What are you doing in our village?"
Su Sanlang said gently: "We are from Nanshan Village. My little sister Su Xiaozhi married into Hu Daniu's family. I am the third brother Su Xiaozhi. I am here to see her."
"It turns out we were looking for Hu Daniu's house."
The man suddenly realized that Su Sanlang and Zhao were Su Xiaozhi's brother and sister-in-law, and he showed sympathy.
Su Sanlang saw the man's strange expression and couldn't help but question: "Brother, are you like this because something happened to Hu Daniu's family?"
There must be a reason for the man's sudden sympathy.
Mrs. Zhao also became worried.
The man nodded: "The Hu Daniu family has been in trouble this year. Hu Laogen died of illness at the beginning of the new year. Hu Daniu fell down in the summer and hit his brain. He is still lying unconscious. Mr. Cao, his eyes
I cried so much that I can’t see now. It’s your sister who’s holding up the house now.”
After saying that, the man sighed.
Su Xiaozhi is a woman who has to support a family. You can imagine how miserable it is.
Su Sanlang and Mrs. Zhao were very worried. They didn't know anything about such a big thing happening to the Hu family.
Su Sanlang felt very sad. He said to the man: "Thank you."
Su Sanlang glanced at Zhao, and both of them wanted to hurry up.
Seeing that the couple's anxiety was not fake, the man just waved his hand and ignored Su Sanlang and Zhao.
Su Sanlang and Zhao also quickly entered the village.
Su Sanlang and Mrs. Zhao have only visited Xiaohu Village once, when Su Xiaozhi got married.
This was all over ten years ago.
At that time, Hu Daniu was very generous and kind-hearted. He was the only son in the family, and his parents seemed kind. Although the family was not rich, they never gave Su Xiaozhi any trouble.
Su Xiaozhi would go back to her parents' home every year to visit. Hu Daniu also came at first, because Mrs. Wang always resented the lack of gifts, which made Hu Daniu feel embarrassed. Later, only Su Xiaozhi came back to visit.
Su Xiaozhi has three children, the eldest daughter Hu Shuangshuang, who is 12 years old this year, the second son Hu Changshou, who is nine years old, and the youngest son Hu Changyang, who is two years old.
Now is the time of autumn harvest. Su Xiaozhi is busy with the harvest alone, and she lies down and sleeps tiredly every day.
It was getting dark, and as soon as she came back from the fields, she prepared medicine for Mr. Cao before cooking.
Her mother-in-law, Cao Shi, is blind and can't do anything. Her husband, Hu Daniu, is lying unconscious in bed. Treating her mother-in-law and her husband has emptied the family's fortune. Su Xiaozhi is so tired that she can't leave home and spins like a top every day.
.
She received the letter from the third brother. She was very happy to know that Su Chong and Su Hua had entered school to become a disciple. If it had been in the past, she would have gone to congratulate her in person, but now, she did not dare to go. The third brother and his family finally got better.
If they knew she was not doing well, they would always take care of her.
And she didn't want to drag down her third brother's family.
"Mom, I don't want to take medicine."
Hu Shuangshuang came out of the house with medicine in hand, not knowing what to do.
Su Xiaozhi looked tired, so she got up from the stove, took the medicine and went into the room. In the room, Mrs. Cao was lying on the bed with her back turned to someone, crying.
Su Xiaozhi felt sour in her heart, so she walked over and said gently: "Mom, drink the medicine. The doctor said that this medicine is good for your eyes."
Ms. Cao's eyes were red and swollen, and she could no longer cry. Her husband passed away and her son was unconscious, which overwhelmed her. She was so heartbroken that she cried all day long, and her eyes were blinded by crying, which became a burden.
.
Ms. Cao's voice was hoarse: "Xiaozhi, I don't need to take medicine, you don't need to spend money on me, and you don't need to worry about me."
Ms. Cao felt pain in her heart, wanting to die but also wanting to live, hoping that Hu Daniu would wake up.
Su Xiaozhi sat down by the bed, gently helped Ms. Cao up and said, "Mom, if you don't drink the medicine, Daniel is awake. I feel so sad to see you like this. Drink the medicine quickly. I'll go after you finish."
I’ll cook something for you to eat.”
Su Xiaozhi was very tired, but she was still very patient.
Mrs. Cao felt guilty. Su Xiaozhi gave her medicine and she drank it. She choked and groped Su Xiaozhi's hand and said hoarsely: "Xiaozhi, I'm sorry, mother has done no harm to you."
Su Xiaozhi patted the back of Mrs. Cao's hand and said, "I'm not bitter. I believe both mother and Daniel will get well."
She was also upset and tears were streaming down her face silently. How could she not feel miserable? She just couldn't fall down. She was so young and she was the only one in the family who could stand up to the sky. If she also fell down, what would happen to the family?
.
"who are you?"
At this time, Hu Shuangshuang's surprised voice came from outside.
