The little old lady was a little dismissive of Aunt Jin's joy. When others left, she went to the kitchen to boil hot water for her granddaughter so that she could wash up. However, she muttered to Lin Yutong, "Just wait and see. Wait until my wife comes in."
I know it’s difficult.”
I also said this to myself.
Lin Yutong pursed his lips and smiled: "If we get along well, we get along. If we don't get along, we don't get along." In rural areas, it is common for brothers and sisters to not get along and not communicate with each other for several years. When you meet someone who knows what is good, you often meet that person.
It's unreasonable and nonsense. Just don't pay attention to it. What world has you not experienced? Who hasn't seen it? In the eyes of Lin Yutong and Fourth Master, this is the least of the problems.
The little old lady looked at her granddaughter and felt that children always think of problems as simple. She knows how to solve problems without throwing cold water on them. She will know that it is difficult when the time comes. But then again, who doesn't have some troubles? Then
Every family has its own sutras that are difficult to recite. They have been recited from ancient times to the present day. This shows that no matter how good the old sayings are, they are still repeated.
Now that we have agreed to the marriage, we can no longer dwell on this matter in our hearts. When it comes to work, he said, "... Go and be more discerning and learn from others. Let's see who is in trouble."
It's better to take advantage of others than to suffer a little loss than to worry about trivial matters. Don't just focus on the few dollars for a month. Those are trivial matters. Whoever has troubles, if you want to borrow three, five or eight dollars, just lend it out.
If the person holding the hand is short, and when push comes to shove, their mouth will turn slightly to the side, and the benefits we will get in the future will not be just a few dollars..."
What you talk about is actually the wisdom of life.
Being capable is one thing, being able to be a good person is also another aspect. There are many people who have the ability who will spend their whole lives in the workplace. No matter what they do, in the end, it is the people who do the work, and people do things, and how to behave is not a matter of how to do things.
in front of.
Lin Yutong responded while washing. It speaks volumes that a person like the little old lady, who came from that era without being affected, was well taken care of, and even brought a child to this day.
They are definitely a group of people who are relatively clear-headed.
I told the old lady about the animal husbandry station, what kind of people I met, and their general temperaments. The little old lady listened very seriously. I felt that my granddaughter understood it quite well, and she felt relieved and felt happy to talk.
Start gossiping.
Talking about the Jin family's trip to Shangqin Village for their nephew's wedding banquet, "...the gift of fifty cents was borrowed from their neighbor, the old Song family..."
Lin Yutong: "..." Isn't this Aunt Song here to come as a matchmaker? Why do you think she is trying to cause trouble?
The two families live across from each other. How much hatred can there be for them to say this at the same time?
The little old lady laughed to herself: "...It just goes in the left ear and out the right ear...When it comes to making up your mind, don't care who is whispering in your ears, just ignore it..."
Lin Yutong slept peacefully here, but Fourth Master couldn't sleep there.
Why?
The matchmaker is coming with the woman's elders. This family is poor, so it must be tidied up. At least it will look good.
All the clothes on the sons' clothes were taken off, washed, and hung outside to dry. Even if they couldn't be dried the next day after one night, it didn't matter if they were pre-dried.
All that was left on the Fourth Master was his underpants.
Okay! It doesn’t matter if I’m at home, I have to go to bed anyway.
sleep?
dream!
Get up, everyone! Clean up.
The most important thing is the old couple living in the east room. Under the current conditions, the 70-year-old head of the family is paralyzed on the bed. Even if they are taken care of carefully, they can eat, drink, and have sex in a small thatched house. How can the smell be different?
How nice.
In the middle of the night, I heated hot water, lifted the old couple up and washed them. They were bathing and washing their hair. The fourth master really couldn't get his hands on it, so he took a less dirty job and shaved the head of the old man at home.
.
The messy hair had grown into a pile, and I didn’t have time to wash it, so I just lay on the kang. The hair was not full of lice.
Holding an old-fashioned razor, lighting a fire on the side, shaving the hair and throwing it into the fire, the smell of burning will instantly come out.
The old man couldn't see his eyes and couldn't move his legs. He stretched out his hand and raised his arm to touch the fourth master's arm. "Is it the fourth master?"
Fourth Master nodded and responded.
The old man muttered, "Why don't you look like the fourth child anymore?"
The Fourth Master thought to himself that no one with eyes in the family would be as clear-minded as one without eyes. He laughed, "Who else could it be if it wasn't me?"
The old man muttered again, "Don't look like anyone else like you."
He looked down upon his son, Old Man Jin, very much.
"...Coward!" This is what the old man said about the Fourth Master's biological father, "Can't handle anything! The longer he lives, the more he goes back..."
I was afraid that even though I wanted to drink some poached egg soup, I didn't get it, and because I had some fine grains at home, I wanted to eat half a bowl of cold noodles but was rejected. I felt resentful in my heart.
The old man, who had never endured hardship, thought that after his son came back from the army, he had a son whom he could rely on, but he never expected that the life with his son would be worse than the life without him.
Fourth Master said nothing, not knowing what to say to this old bastard.
He didn't say anything, but people did. Mr. Jin said, "Have you made an appointment with the granddaughter of Lao Qi's family?"
The Fourth Master said "Hmm". The old man was lying on the kang at home. He knew everything about the house.
The old man smacked his lips: "You kid is quite thoughtful..." His voice dropped as he spoke, "Grandson, I heard grandpa tell you that from now on, he will be more affectionate to the old lady of the Qi family than to your own grandma.
.That old woman is a real person. Your grandpa’s tricks are very good. When it comes to family wealth, this whole Taiping Town...is not...a commune. The family wealth of the whole commune is exposed, I’m afraid.
None of them can compare to that old lady. The entire Qi family is all fools! As for the old lady of the Qi family, they would believe it when someone said that the man didn’t give any money for his private life. I’m afraid that the one who will get the most is this little wife.
, you just know it in your heart, don’t tell it out. The Qi family lives next to each other, and if people find out, it’s all right and wrong... After all, the girl’s surname is not Qi... Be nice to them in the future, and coax them more.
Point, coaxing money into your own pocket is also your skill..."
Either they say that they are good at whatever they do, but the old man has become good at this prodigal's business, and he knows where to get money to make him lose.
The fourth master couldn't answer this, and he was too lazy to talk to him. He only had his hands free. Don't shave the old man's head into a long hair, with white stubble hair marks every now and then.
Fortunately, the old man also knows what kind of character his fourth grandson is. It is not unusual for him not to hear a word from him for a day. Then he said, "Your mother is going to recruit the second son out. Do you know this?"
Can you not know?
I've been talking about it for a day or two, but I'll come to see you tomorrow. Is there anything you don't know?
The fourth master still didn't respond, so the old master snorted coldly: "I want to recruit the second son out, but I can't agree to it!"
The old man really cares about his second son.
At that time, the old man's father seemed to be very happy because he had a daughter in the family. The mood of a family with only one child longing for a son is really beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. When he came to the old man's area, he was a single person! At that time, his son was from the army
When he came back, he didn't like everything, but he only brought back a bunch of grandchildren, who made people so happy that they could laugh out of their dreams.
The boss listens to the hell, he doesn’t want to come to his grandfather, the third child is still young, and only the second child, at an age that is both sensible and ignorant, follows his grandfather who hates dogs all day long.
. He is not the kind of honest child who always does things when necessary. When he grows up, he will be the first-class person among his peers who fights and fights. People are also filial, and others are filial. I won’t talk about the distant ones, let’s just say last year.
In winter, the brigade selected people to go out to repair canals, and they had enough food. Each person was given half a catty of white flour steamed buns. The second brother couldn't bear to eat it, so he saved a catty a day. When others went to bed at night, he came back with the steamed buns for the elder at home.
I put down the small ones, put on the tortillas at home, and rushed to the construction site before dawn. I took a break during the day and continued to deliver them to my home at night. This delivery lasted two full months. Take it out and ask.
, who can find such a filial child?
Such children go out to recruit wives, and the son and his wife are living in lard.
At the end of the day, the old man even muttered to the fourth master, "For someone like me, it would be easier to be a bachelor for the rest of my life."
I don't really like the look of my eldest grandson.
The fourth master neatly shaved the old man's face, "You can go and rest in peace. I'll get you some delicious food when you have free time. You and I can secretly eat at home. Don't make trouble tomorrow, my second brother."
I know what’s going on in my heart. Don’t worry.”
The old man didn't know what the plot was, but it really didn't cause any trouble.
In this family situation, none of the grandsons has a wife... Who is not anxious about this?
There was a happy event in the Jin family, and the whole production team knew about this alley. At first, the enthusiasm for work was not very high, and because the ground was so muddy that they could not get their feet off, everyone was watching the excitement in the alley.
Lin Yutong had to go to work when she should. Su Xiaoqin sent her to the entrance of the alley, a little envious of her going to work, "I heard the excitement and went to talk to you?"
"Okay!" Lin Yutong agreed and waved her hand. There was really nothing to see in a livestock station with several houses.
Unexpectedly, at noon, when Lin Yutong had just come out from the cafeteria to get food, Su Xiaoqin actually came.
The niece of the commune director is Qian Cuicui, and they share an office. The office is not big, and there is a wooden bed behind the bookcase. Cuicui lives at night. Her home is far from the town, and she usually lives here at night.
.
Seeing someone coming, she quickly ran away and took the bowl to guard the two little pigs.
Su Xiaoqin felt that having an office was a very respectable thing, and she became even more envious when she saw the stewed tofu and white flour steamed buns in Lin Yutong's bowl.
Lin Yutong stuffed half a steamed bun over and handed over a pair of chopsticks, "Try it and see." She didn't really like eating this kind of white stewed tofu. It would be better for the little old lady to just eat half a jar of pickles that she brought.
It's comfortable.
The pickles are placed in the big office, and whoever eats them gets them. The little old lady specially moved them out from under the locked cabinet last night, and Lin Yutong didn't notice them these days.
Su Xiaoqin usually gave Lin Yutong her eggs to eat, but this time she was not polite. She took the steamed buns and started eating them. Only after eating did she remember what she was here for, "Lao Jin's house is very lively today."
"The daughter-in-law I told the boss is so tall..." She gestured towards her, reaching about her shoulders. Lin Yutong made a visual inspection and said, "1.55 meters?"
"I'm only 1.6 meters tall." Su Xiaoqin spoke vaguely and gave Lin Yutong a blank look.
Okay! Taking into account the exaggeration in Su Xiaoqin's language, it means that the future sister-in-law is not tall, a little over 1.5 meters? Who knows this without seeing anyone.
"But the Jin family... the eldest brother is only less than 1.7 meters tall." In fact, people are not tall, short, fat, or thin, they are all ordinary people, as long as they look pleasing to the eye.
Su Xiaoqin patted Lin Yutong with the chopsticks in her hand, "That's not what I'm talking about... That girl looks at people like this..." As she spoke, she stiffened her neck, tilted her head forward slightly, and rolled her eyes.
, which makes people look a little more hostile for no reason.
After finishing studying, he winked at Lin Yutong again and said, "Wait a minute. Your future sister-in-law is not easy to get along with."
Then he vividly imitated how others disliked the house and walked around Jin's house with blank eyes, "If you find me such a sister-in-law, ha! I would rather ask my brother to be a bachelor for the rest of his life."
Lin Yutong had a rough idea and asked the other person, "We came together to see each other. We didn't start any trouble."
"Didn't we agree to recruit a wife?" Su Xiaoqin's tone softened, and she said with a bit of pity: "Not to mention, the girl that Brother Kawazi mentioned here is somewhat similar to you. She is tall and thin.
Your face is rounder, her face is longer, and they are similar in stature and body shape. She doesn’t like to talk much, and she looks like someone who is used to doing a lot of things."
There is nothing else to say.
The little girls are not focusing on the right thing. The key is to see how the marriage is discussed.
How did you talk about it?
It can make people sad to death.
After sending the person away, Aunt Jin sat on the edge of the kang with tears streaming down her face. Old man Jin squatted under the edge of the kang, holding his head in his hands and saying nothing. Jin Mancheng sat on the stool, doing the same as old Jintou, with his head
He buried it, stretched out his hands to hold his head, and remained motionless.
Jin Manchuan walked out of the house, stood under the eaves and looked at the sky above his head, and finally walked into the house, "Isn't it just building a house? We can build a few adobe houses ourselves."
If that doesn't work, just ask friends to help you for a few days. That's not the case for anyone building a house. Just two meals will be enough.
Aunt Jin raised her eyes and glanced at her second son, "What do you know..."
Before they could say anything else, the third child's voice came from outside, "Second brother, please come out, if something happens..."
Without giving Aunt Jin a chance to speak, she immediately called the second child away.
Jin Manchuan went out and saw the third child squatting on the big bluestone at the door. He frowned and walked over, "What's wrong?"
The third child looked at home with a stern look, "Second brother, too, what are you talking about? You have already been recruited, so why do you worry about the affairs of this family? The same goes for the Li family, whose girl is a fairy.
, I want this or that! Even if I need 300 yuan for a bicycle, I also need a brick house? Ah! How can I have such a big reputation?"
"Every family has a girl to ask for." Jin Manchuan sniffed and knelt down next to the third child, "Then which family is willing to do it?"
"That's what I'm talking about." The third child stood up for a moment, "As for the boss..." I couldn't stand his coward, "What can I do if I stay a bachelor all my life? How can I live without a wife and a daughter-in-law? Yes."
If you can find it yourself, what do you want to do if you don't have the ability to embarrass your parents at home? From the beginning to the end, he didn't let out a single fart. If he said that he was not happy, there would be nothing to embarrass..."
The problem is that the boss himself is willing.
As for the tile-roofed house that Duo wanted to leave, he didn't say a word.
The second child kept his head down and said nothing, "I know my affairs well. We can really watch our parents worry themselves to death."
The third child twitched his lips but said nothing, "... If we build adobe bricks, we brothers will call a group of people, and the house will be built in just three or two days. But where can we get the bricks and tiles?"
?”
The fourth master was lying on the kang inside, listening to the two brothers talking outside, and he was really indifferent.
Fourth master can really get bricks and tiles.
When I was in the Northeastern Corps, the big stove that was used for burning in the winter was surrounded by bricks. A lot of it could be burned in one winter. For this, we had to build a special stove in the backyard of our house and keep it burning continuously, which actually worked.
However, if the quality of the soil is not good, it will not be very strong when it is burned. It can last for three to five years, but it may not last for more than three years.
He simply got up, came out, squatted on the big bluestone at the door with his second and third sons, and expressed his thoughts.
The second child turned his face and asked, "Is that okay?" He was a little unsure.
The third child was happy, "What's wrong? Let's make it adobe on the inside and use bricks on the outside. We'll fool this one first."
But it is not so easy to burn it yourself. What was burned in the Northeast at that time? Hard wood! What is there now? Where can you burn the withered grass in the crop straw fields? Keep wood as thick as an arm.
Making rafters and purlins.
When Fourth Master came to pick up Lin Yutong from get off work, he was still thinking about this matter.
Lin Yutong had left his lunch for Fourth Master, so he simply asked him to eat it in the office. He also secretly added braised pork and braised eggs to the noodles.
While the fourth master was eating, he told Lin Yutong what happened today, which was much more detailed than what Lin Yutong had heard.
But what can Lin Yutong do?
There is no way. Nowadays, coal is not something that ordinary people can get. The trees in their own yards are treasures. When the children get married, they will either build houses or make furniture. The trees in the fields are also produced.
Team, who dares to move?
The two looked at each other. Under certain conditions, it really doesn't mean that you can be self-reliant if you want to be self-reliant.
Due to this delay, it was already dark when we came out of the animal husbandry station. Qian Cuicui was still feeding the two little piglets and was very responsible.
Lin Yutong said hello and came out with the Fourth Master. When they arrived at the entrance of the alley, they saw the third son of the Jin family sitting there again. It seemed that he was waiting for the Fourth Master to say something.
Lin Yutong called "Brother Shanzi" and went home first. As for what the third brother wanted to do with the fourth master, she didn't ask much. She thought it was just a little trouble in their family.
As a result, after Lin Yutong left, Jin Laosan whispered to Fourth Master: "At two o'clock in the evening, remember to wake up and open the door..."
what?
Before the Fourth Master asked, the Third Brother patted his shoulder, "Don't ask! Go back quickly." After saying that, he walked away.
The Fourth Master had some guesses in his mind, but he never expected that the Third Brother would be so bold as to lead a few people to pull a truck and pull more than ten loads of coal to the house.
The eldest brother was lying on the kang pretending to be asleep, but the fifth child was really fast asleep.
The second child didn't dare to speak when he got up, so he kicked the third child several times, "If someone catches you, you'll be finished, you know?"
The third child took pictures of the dirty spots he was afraid of being kicked, "Who's going to sue? What's the point of pulling a little coal? I'm really worried. I'll expose all the dirty things behind them, and no one will be able to think about it." Those people
But they are all pulled out by carts of iron. They are much more valuable! "Don't worry! I'm sure no one will dare to say anything about turning a blind eye."
The fourth master believed this, so he really stopped saying it. It was impossible to say this. Poverty forced people to do something, and the things he had done before were not much more noble than those of the third son.
The second child was on tenterhooks for several days, observing the electrical machine factory every day. But it turned out that it was as if nothing had happened, and no news was revealed. He had a good friend, whose father was a worker in the electrical machine factory, and he made insinuations.
I inquired several times, but when I saw that no one was pursuing the matter, I gave it up.
I moved the chicken coop in the backyard and secretly fired bricks at home.
When the brothers had free time, they would make the dough at home. When people asked why your house was so smoky every night, Aunt Jin told them that the clay dough dries slowly. It is not waiting for urgent use. Let’s dry it!
The third child started building publicity early, "...bricks and tiles... one of my dad's former comrades said that he could find a way to do something better...don't care whether it is good or bad...new or old, as long as it can be used."
Regardless of how many people believe this, the Jin family’s new house was built before the wheat harvest.
The original thatched house in the house has not been moved. The house on the east side is occupied by the old head of the family, and the house on the west side is occupied by the head of the house.
Of the two rows of houses, only the one to the east is made of bricks and tiles and is cleanly painted. The remaining three are all adobe thatched houses. There are more adobe houses built this time, so anyway
If you hire someone to do the work, you might as well use all these things. My brothers can also use them when they build a wedding room.
I hired people to work for five days, and they were all the friends my sons had made outside. The idle people from the production team also came to help. Lin Yutong had to go to work, and the little old lady came to help for a few days. Not only
I wanted to help, and even asked the fourth master to carry a bag of grain from home. It was not easy to buy and exchange food for such a group of people.
Aunt Jin didn't say anything outside, but she muttered to Old Man Jin at home: "Aunt Qi is still kind...this Li family..."
While talking, she saw her eldest son happily running in and out of the wedding room prepared for him. She took some white ash from the breeding farm and painted the room over and over again. Her face became a little ugly, "
...If you paint those other houses, can you save a piece of meat?"
"Mom, there's not that much lime." Jin Mancheng came out with a jar and put it in the corner. The lime was put in the feedlot by the team for the livestock to sprinkle in the pen to prevent plague. How much can he steal? He didn't explain much.
, when he was about to go out, he seemed to think of something and asked again: "Do you still have money at home? A high school classmate of mine can get glass..."
"What kind of glass?" Aunt Jin was immediately shocked. "Where's the glass back? You still want to touch the glass window. You might as well shave off the flesh from your mother's body and send it to Li's house..."
"Mom... look what you are talking about..." Jin Mancheng said as he walked out, "Isn't there a cheaper way? If you don't want to buy it, don't buy it. Let's look for opportunities in the future..."
Seeing her eldest son go out, Aunt Jin wiped her tears at Old Man Jin and said, "Listen, this is not what the woman wants, it is our own son..."
Old Man Jin squatted without moving, "If you can help the boss, help him first... The boss has no ability..."
Among the sons, the second one can survive anywhere. The third one can always support himself, regardless of whether it is stealing or robbing, cheating or cheating. The fourth son is silent but his wife is here, so the day is designated.
It can’t be broken. The fifth child is still young. Let’s wait and see in a few years. Only the eldest brother... the daughter-in-law I mentioned, he didn’t like the daughter-in-law at all. But I know best what my own child is like. I can’t do anything about it.
I really need to ask the boss to beat me up.
He stood up and said, "Prepare some dry food. What Lao San said reminded me that there are still a few comrades who can walk around. I'm going to think of a way. I have to get the three hundred yuan back with the bicycle as soon as possible..."
The bond between comrades-in-arms is probably one of the more reliable bonds in the world. Old Man Jin was away for three days, and I don’t know how many places he visited, but he actually brought back a brand-new bicycle and three hundred yuan.
.
Aunt Jin's tone of voice when she spoke to Old Man Jin was different, and she was serving tea and water with a smile on her face.
At night, Old Man Jin took out another one hundred and thirty-two yuan and stuffed it in. "It was all collected by my comrades. If you borrow it this time, it will be difficult to ask for it next time. The remaining wives
, these are the only expenses..." There is also the matter of the semi-wedding banquet. There are four in a row, which is still very tight. If the Li family hadn't asked for a lot, how could the second brother have recruited a wife?
Thinking about this, he asked again: "How is the second brother talking about it?"
Aunt Jin pursed her lips, "Second Brother has an idea..."
What's the idea?
Jin Manchuan didn't really want to recruit a wife at all. He went to find the girl every one or two days. Naturally, he fell in love with her. With his own conditions, there was nothing he couldn't like about her.
He told the girl, "...this is a village after all, it can't be compared with our streets..."
This is true. When it is far away from the county seat and it is inconvenient to go to the county seat, people in the villages below call the commune "the street". When you go to the commune, you say you go to the street. You can imagine how prosperous Ping'an Town is. And
The Jin family lived again in Chengmen Alley, the most prosperous East Street.
This girl, who was in her twenties, her name was Lin Yuying, was speechless after hearing these words. She waited until the others left and then told her grandma in the evening, "...it seemed that she was not very willing...she wanted me to marry her..."
This girl's grandmother's surname is Cai, and everyone calls her Mrs. Cai. She is also a hard-working person.
She married her husband and gave birth to two daughters. She was still carrying them in her belly for a while, but her husband died. A woman's family could not support so many children, and her husband's family was not willing to raise a granddaughter, so she had to marry her two daughters and the children in her belly.
Kangping Village. She gave birth to a posthumous daughter from her previous husband, and later gave birth to a son for her second husband. Only then did she establish a foothold here.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long, and her second husband also died. After all, she had a son and had hope. She did not marry again and raised several children. But I don’t know whether it was hereditary or something she was willing to do. This son
It was quite normal when I was a child, but when I was about fourteen or fifteen, I suddenly went crazy. I was so nervous that I didn't watch him when I went out, so I fell into a ditch and drowned.
There were only three daughters left. The eldest daughter and the second daughter were married, and the third daughter was left to raise children. But who knew that the second daughter who got married died in childbirth halfway.
This girl was married for three years, and in the first year she gave birth to a daughter, the granddaughter Lin Yuying. In the second year, she became pregnant again, and gave birth to a pair of twins. Unfortunately, she did not survive the birth of the baby.
How old was my uncle at that time? He was twenty-one years old!
Can I be a bachelor? My daughter died less than three months ago, and everyone is planning to get married.
My uncle was a worker. He was a temporary worker recruited by the post office, and he only did outside wiring work. Later he became a full-time worker and worked in the county. Even if his wife is dead, it is easy to find a young girl.
As expected, after they announced the kiss, they disliked the children at home.
A young man in his twenties has a new wife. She is still very young and will definitely have more children in the future. The first child is really a burden at this time.
I don’t know what caused the mumbo-jumbo. At that time, Mrs. Cai heard that Xin’er said that she wanted to give away all three of her grandchildren. She hurriedly rushed over and when she got there, the two younger ones had already been given away.
. Only this big one is left, and it hasn’t been finalized yet.
Mrs. Cai picked up her eldest granddaughter and ran away. If you don't support me, I will. If you don't want her, I will.
It would be difficult to raise a granddaughter for the third daughter. If only the biological aunt was at home, there would be no problem for the child. But if there were outsiders, the child would definitely still be disliked.
So the third daughter was married off, and where was she married? She was married to South Street in Ping'an Town, next to the livestock station.
The granddaughter's marriage was arranged by the third uncle.
She just wanted to find a son-in-law for her child, but she was afraid that her mother's family would not support her and she would be bullied if she married into someone else's family.
When her granddaughter said this, she was speechless. She was silent for a long time before asking, "Is the fourth son of the Jin family the granddaughter of the old lady of the Qi family?"
Lin Yuying didn't know about the old lady from the Qi family. She only heard that she went to work at the animal husbandry station. "...It was said that there were two families separated by an alley, and it was an old lady and a girl. I guess..."
Mrs. Cai didn't say anything. She just sent her granddaughter to sleep and sat on the bed all night. She got up before dawn, left a message for her granddaughter and went out. Where did she go?
Go to the streets! Go to the Taiping Commune.
Lin Yutong got up, grabbed the broom and opened the door. When the door opened, she was startled. There was someone sitting on the door pillar.
It was just dawn, so I couldn't see clearly, but it didn't look like someone I knew.
"Milk!" Lin Yutong turned around and called the little old lady, "We have guests at home." She thought they were the little old lady's old sisters. These old ladies were elderly, sleepless, and would sit there for most of the night. Most people
Can't bear it.
Granny Cai pulled on her clothes and felt a little reserved. The little old lady over there also came out. Seeing Granny Cai, she was stunned for a moment and invited people inside.
With this attitude, Lin Yutong couldn't figure out for a while whether the two old ladies knew each other or not.
Someone is coming to the house. Lin Yutong puts down the broom and serves tea and water to the guests.
The little old lady asked Lin Yutong to sit aside, "If you're not in a hurry to go to work, just sit and listen."
What are you listening to?
The little old lady pointed at the guest and said, "This is your grandma."
who?
Lin Yutong looked at the old lady, first she called "Grandma", and then she saw the old lady's eyes were red, and she was confused. This was not a polite way of calling her, she must have been her real grandma.
She looked at the little old lady uncertainly, and the little old lady pursed her lips and said, "Sister, why are you here now?"
Mrs. Cai's tears suddenly fell down, "Who would have thought of such a fate, otherwise why would I come to your door? It would be shameless."
The two of them were talking, and Lin Yutong finally understood something.
