Cheng Xue saw a large puddle of sticky filth with bloodshot eyes on the ground, and quickly took his pulse. The old man's pulse was disordered, and his weak fire was strong. Why did he feel like he was going to run out of gas?
"Brother, put Uncle Guo down, quickly——"
The hurried voice startled Guo Dake. He didn't dare to delay putting his biological father down and asked:
"Sister, is my dad okay?"
Cheng Xue took out the needle box and gave the old man an injection while giving instructions:
"Sister-in-law, go and call Uncle Dong here. I'm not sure."
After hearing this, Mrs. Guo Yang was about to leave, but Mr. Guo stopped her movement with a clear word "no".
"Dad?"
"No!"
Cheng Xue reminded while twisting the needle——
"Uncle Guo, my medical skills are not good, so I must ask Uncle Dong to come."
"No! No...looking for."
After saying these three simple words, the old man's face was covered with sweat.
Guo Dake and Yang were both frightened because their mother had been sweating like this before she died. The seventh uncle said this was "corpse sweat".
"Sister, my father..."
Cheng Xue concentrated on twisting the needle and saw that the old man's face was rosy and his eyes were shining, and he guessed that this should be what is commonly known as "reflection of light".
Why, isn’t it good to take good care of you all the time?
"Can we leave the house alone? Oh, where is Daguo's wife?"
Jiang Jianye's voice came from the yard, and Mrs. Yang quickly got up and went out. Guo Dake stayed by the kang, fearing that if he suddenly left, he would not be able to hear what his father had to say.
When Cheng Xue felt for her pulse again, it was completely gone.
"Uncle Guo, you...you..."
The old man who could not move his hands and feet suddenly raised his hand and waved it twice, shaking his head.
"My son, thank you. I'm going to die soon. Don't bother me."
He hasn't spoken for a long time and his tongue is very hard, but he speaks slowly and can understand the meaning behind his words.
When Jiang Jianye came in and saw Mr. Guo struggling to speak, his heart shook.
"What's going on? What happened?"
Mian Ni, who followed, was thinking quickly and hurriedly explained:
"Grandpa Jiang, you see, my grandfather is angry because of my mother's remarriage. Grandpa Jiang wants to make the decision for us, my father, and my grandfather."
The child didn't know what happened just now. He just wanted to get himself and his sister out of that home as soon as possible, but he didn't expect to be beaten up by her.
Mr. Guo took Jiang Jianye's hand and explained the funeral arrangements with difficulty. Guo Erliang's wife, her brother, sister-in-law, and father all came to Guo Dake's house angrily, stood in the yard and began to curse.
We are not a family, we do not enter the same family.
The aunt and sister-in-law scolded each other very unpleasantly in the yard, but Guo Dake and his wife could not go out.
Cheng Xue put away the silver needle and came out, stood in the yard, wiped her eyes, and said to Guo Sanyu's wife:
"Sister-in-law Sanyu quickly came into the house, Uncle Guo has made arrangements for the funeral."
The sister-in-law and sister-in-law who were scolding Zhenghuan stopped suddenly when they heard this. As soon as Mianni's grandpa heard this, he quickly grabbed his son and his daughter-in-law was about to leave.
Geng's sharp eyes noticed that they were about to run away, so he started sweeping the courtyard and blocked the courtyard door.
"You want to leave if someone gets into trouble because of scolding? Do you want good things? It's okay for old Guo Tou to be okay today. If something happens, you will have to pay with your life!"
"Damn old lady, what are you talking about? Get out of my way——"
Uncle Manni raised her hand as she spoke. Seeing that Geng was about to suffer a loss, Cheng Xue kicked him hard from behind until he fell to the ground. Then he slapped Guo Erliang's wife.
"No wonder you can remarry a man after his death. Your brother is such a beast, and you are not a good person?"
"Tiedan, you hit me? Why do you hit me? And who are you scolding?"
"Scolding you! What happened? Shouldn't you hit me?"
As Cheng Xue spoke, she picked up the bench and threw it hard, but unfortunately it was dodged.
"Why didn't you say you wanted to remarry when you received the pension yesterday? You can remarry if you want. Take back the things Guo Erliang got from the family separation. Don't use the money to buy a dowry and embarrass the woman."
"I said before that I was going to remarry, and I..."
"Why didn't you say?!" Mian Ni came out of the house and stared at her with red eyes, "I really hate that she is your daughter, I feel sick! I heard you say with my own ears that if it weren't for me and Yun Ni, you two
Getting married can be regarded as a couple since they were young, and they can live a good life."
"Grandpa...wuwu...wuwuwuwu..."
"Dad——"
"Dad, please open your eyes, please, Dad——"
There was a mass of crying in the house, with rollers and rollers waiting for the grandson, and the granddaughter rushed into the house one after another.
Looking at Guo Erliang's wife again, she just stood there stupidly. After her brother was pushed down by Cheng Xue, he was lifted up by his own father.
There was such a big fight, and soon a lot of people gathered at the door to watch the excitement.
Geng didn't care about that, and went over to tell the story in detail and meticulously about "the daughter-in-law remarried and the father-in-law was so angry".
No matter who in the village has a conflict with whom, when it is the turn to fight against other villages, they will definitely have the same guns and united hearts!
Uncle Manni was so angry that she pointed at her waist and then at Cheng Xuedao:
"This bitch kicked me, look at the shoe marks, I can't do it anymore, I'm going to die, I...ah-ah-ah-"
Any subsequent attempts to blackmail him were replaced by his cries of pain.
Grandpa Manni knew Li Hui, saw clearly that it was him, and hurriedly said:
"Huizi, don't be impulsive. There is a misunderstanding. Mianni didn't listen to everything, and we didn't say anything..."
"Why didn't you tell me? Ever since we moved here, you have been coaxing my father to work every day. You want this today and that tomorrow. You also told my grandma that when we sisters grow up, you will have to set a wedding gift for us when we get married.
”
"You...how can you talk nonsense?" The old man blushed, panted heavily, and shook his head.
Mian Ni was full of fire, pointing to the sky above her head, and said:
"There is a god at your head. Do you dare to swear that you didn't say it? If you did, your old Wu family would have no descendants. Do you dare? The fifty taels of silver we got from dividing the family..."
"What fifty taels of silver? Manni, what are you talking about?" Guo Erliang's wife exclaimed.
Mian Ni ignored that and continued shouting:
"Why not? You sold the three acres of land you got to your uncle at ten taels of silver per mu. They are your mother's family, so of course you speak to them."
The little girl swore so confidently that everyone in Hope River Village knew that her words were untrue. Even if Guo Erliang wasn't a thing, Guo Dake wasn't a fool either. But no one said anything, and the exceptions could still be distinguished.
Grandpa Manni was so angry that Cheng Xue shouted into the room——
"Uncle Jiang, come out. This matter is not trivial. We have to go to the town to find the mayor. Guo Erliang is a warrior who died in the battlefield. They are so greedy for money and do not give the orphan a way to live. We must ask for an explanation. Otherwise, our village
How should those widows live?"
"Yes, we have to look for it. There are so many dead this time. Not every widow has a son. If my parents' family follows suit, will we widows be allowed to live?"
Mrs. Zhang was the first to stand up and speak out. Everyone felt that the matter should be made bigger, especially the women...
