It is normal for a mother-in-law to scold her daughter-in-law, but just now Li made a big statement, and now she just feels embarrassed to be scolded. A little jealousy arose out of the embarrassment, she is also a mother-in-law, why can't her mother-in-law be as considerate as others?
Zhou Cuilin went out and got caught in the rain. She felt cold and hungry. After changing out of her wet clothes, she hurriedly drank the hot porridge. Because she drank too quickly and was burned, she didn't even care about the curses on the side.
mother-in-law.
So, Zhou's mother cursed a few more times. She was about to curse, but she remembered what the people next door had just said, and she couldn't drink the sticky porridge in her hand. She said worriedly, "His father, our house must be gone.
The food in the cellar is probably... We only have these two bags left. I don’t know if we can eat until the Chinese New Year. When the water recedes, where will we live?”
The more he talked, the more anxious he became, "There isn't much food, how can we live like this?"
Her voice was not loud, but she lived in a small cave together, and the Zhao family could hear her words clearly.
The two brothers looked worried, and even Zhou Cuiliu secretly glanced at Chu Yunli.
Zhao Cheng asked worriedly, "Mom, what should we do? How about I go out with them tomorrow and bring back some wild vegetables."
"Yes, mother, there aren't many things here on the Western Mountain. If we don't go there, when the rain stops, there won't be anything left." Zhao Cai was also anxious, "Just let us go with them."
Chu Yunli shook his head, "That's it anyway, there's no shortage of wild vegetables. Safety is the most important thing."
The two brothers were silent.
If it hadn't been for my mother's idea, they might not have moved yet and would have been washed away with the flood.
If a person is sucked into such a large amount of water, he may not be able to come back for the rest of his life.
Thinking about it this way, I felt lucky.
Another day later, most of the floods receded. When the people who went out to look for wild vegetables came back today, everyone had something. Pots and pans, tables, chairs, boxes, everything.
Needless to say, they went back to the village. They found these from various houses, and maybe picked them up.
Zhou Cuilin talked mysteriously to his parents, and the next morning, the three members of the family left. He left Mrs. Li alone, not without her, but also left her looking at the food and things in the cave.
When Zhou Cuiliu saw him, he turned his eyes and walked over, "Brothers and sisters, where have my parents gone?"
"They're going home." Ms. Li didn't even raise her head. "They want to go back and see if there's anything they can use. They should take it out and dry it first."
In fact, there is nothing left in the village. If you find a good location on the west mountain, you can see the village. Some people's houses have even had their land scraped away, and even the original location of their houses cannot be seen.
Some people's houses are half-baked, but they are also in dilapidated condition. If such a big house has been washed away, what can be left behind?
After hearing this, Zhou Cuiliu came back and said, "Mom, let's go back and take a look. If there is anything left behind..." She lowered her voice, "It's been taken away by people over there, and it's hard to get it back."
She was referring to the cave next door.
Chu Yunli sighed, "Don't think about it, our village is flooded like this. Basically there is nothing." Even if there is, what good things can the villagers have?
Zhou Cuiliu didn't believe it, "Then what will my parents get when they go back?"
Chu Yunli raised his eyes and looked at her calmly, "I guess this is what you just said."
Take someone else’s!
The two brothers and Zhou Cuiliu looked at each other. Zhao Cheng was surprised, "Can you really get it?"
There is nothing good in the village, but there is something in the town! The flood is coming quickly, and even though we have been warned in advance, there should still be things that have not been cleaned up. When the water washes away, the clothes, jewelry, and food stores in the town, including those in the rich people’s homes over there,
The porcelain screens, tables and chairs will not all be washed away.
Those are all valuable things. They are washed up on the roadside and become ownerless things. Just pick up a few...
Chu Yunli shook his head, "After eating, go to bed early. When the water recedes, our family will have to build a house, so save your energy."
I just didn’t mean to let them pick things up.
In the evening, someone suddenly came back from the mountain in a hurry and rushed to the door of their cave. "Come and take a look! The Zhou family has been beaten."
Li was startled and ran to the door, "Uncle, what's going on?"
"I don't know. It seems that they had to pick up other people's things, but they refused to let them go, so they started fighting. Your parents and your husband were both injured and couldn't stand up. You should quickly find someone to pick them up.
Look at this, it’s going to rain heavily at night.”
Zhou Cuiliu's face turned pale, and she looked back blankly at Chu Yunli who was sitting by the fire, "Mom, my parents..."
Before Chu Yunli could speak, Li turned around and said, "Brother-in-law, go take a look. It's important to bring him back."
Zhou Cuiliu was already holding Zhao Cheng's hand, crying with tears in her eyes.
Originally, something happened to the Zhou family, and the Zhao family, as in-laws, should indeed help. But if Chu Yunli wanted to go down the mountain, she would definitely have gone to pick up things. Instead of taking advantage, she still had to go down the mountain to save people.
Chu Yunli looked bad and did not hide her anger at all, saying, "The boss is the son-in-law of the Zhou family, so he should help. But he can't carry so many people by himself. You have to find a few more people to help.
"
This was said to Mrs. Li.
Li was speechless.
The people in the village are honest, and many people are willing to lend a helping hand. But in this kind of weather, people go out, and who is willing to go if they are not close relatives?
Even if you are willing, you have to give some benefits.
Mrs. Li originally thought that Zhao Cheng was the son-in-law of the Zhou family and he should have helped, but Chu Yunli was right. She was the daughter-in-law and a serious member of the Zhou family. She had to hire someone to help her.
Whether you owe a favor or ask someone for something, whoever opens the mouth will owe it to him. There are still people in the Zhou family, and it is not Zhao Cheng's turn to take care of everything.
The uncle at the door had already gone back to change his clothes. No one would let him go out after changing his wet clothes. Li stamped her feet and quickly went to the next door.
Zhou Cuiliu was so anxious that she put on her raincoat and was about to go out while crying.
Chu Yunli frowned, "Where are you going?"
Zhou Cuiliu cried without looking back, "I have to see my parents."
"You can't go." Chu Yunli stood up and took the raincoat in her hand, "I'll go for you." While putting it on, he said, "I've tried my best not to let you work these days because one day I had a dream
, I dreamed about your father. He happily told me that we are going to have a grandson. So, I guess you may be pregnant. In this weather, you should stop running around and be careful. If I do this
You are so accommodating, and you let your child get into trouble, our Zhao family can no longer tolerate you."
The last sentence was solemn in tone.
Zhou Cuiliu was stunned and subconsciously touched his stomach, "No way?"
In a previous life, the Zhao family and the Zhou family were washed away by floods. On the way, they grabbed wooden boards or wooden basins and rushed to the next town. The two brothers found an opportunity to grab a big tree by the roadside and pulled Zhang Yu
Both Er and Zhou Cuiliu held on. Fortunately, they saved their lives. The Zhou family also grabbed branches in the forest, and the two families got together by luck.
This good luck refers to the luck of the Zhou family. For the Zhao family, it is not good luck.
The flood receded in a few days, but many people quickly fell ill because they had soaked in the water and could not find a suitable place to take shelter from the rain and warm themselves by the fire. The Zhao family and the Zhou family were no exception.
At that time, the Zhao family's money had just been taken away by the Zhou family, and nothing was left behind. However, while Zhang Yuer was floating and grabbing randomly, he bumped into a small box and subconsciously grabbed it firmly. Waiting for it to be caught by two
The son pulled away from the flood, and after opening the box, he found a pair of bracelets made of clear jade, which were worth a lot of silver.
She gave the bracelet to Zhao Cai, who was the least ill, and asked him to quietly exchange it for silver. She also bought medicine and food from an old man on the mountain. However, the Zhao family and the Zhou family lived together, and it was impossible to watch the Zhou family.
He died of hunger and illness. The two families could only eat and drink together.
In such a disaster, no matter how valuable something is, it is not as valuable as a handful of rice. Therefore, the pair of bracelets cannot be exchanged for much. There are seven or eight people in the two families, and most of them are sick. There is not enough food and medicine.
of.
Zhou's mother was the least ill because she was sitting in the basin, so she cooked medicinal porridge for both families.
However, Zhao Cai, who was the least ill, left first. Zhao Cheng was next, and he left within two days. Zhang Yu'er, on the other hand, stayed up for a few days by himself. When he woke up by chance, he found that Zhou's family members were all well, and even the previous couple with Zhao Cai
Mrs. Li, who had a high fever all the time, got better. In her daze, she heard from the Zhou family that it turned out that Zhou's mother was talking nonsense about making medicinal porridge. She randomly found some bitter medicine and put it into the porridge.
The medicine I bought was secretly prepared separately for the Zhou family to drink.
When Zhang Yuer heard this, she was shocked and angry, but she became more sober. Her two sons left one after another. Originally she didn't want to live anymore, but now that she learned the truth, she just found it difficult to accept. When she was angry, she felt a little better.
However, she was still too ill after all. She felt like someone was feeding her something. She didn't know how long it had passed, but she woke up when someone fed her something again.
The person who gave her medicine was Zhou Cuiliu.
Zhou Cuiliu had just lost her child. Although she was also sick, Zhou's mother also gave her some medicine. Although it was the least amount, she got better with that medicine. However, after hearing what the Zhou family did,
Later, she secretly gave her share of the medicine to her mother-in-law, and she developed a high fever herself.
Seeing that she had a high fever and the flood had subsided, many people were preparing to flee. When the Zhou family left, they left behind their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, who were still ill. They left for only a day. When Zhou Cuiliu went to pick wild vegetables, she never came back.
When Zhang Yuer found her, she had fallen by the roadside and her body was stiff.
Although Zhang Yuer got better after taking the medicine, without the medicine, he suffered from repeated high fevers and fell down shortly after he took the medicine.
Therefore, if Zhou Cuiliu loses another child for the Zhou family, I'm afraid Zhang Yuer will not be happy.
In fact, Chu Yunli didn't want to save such a person. Although the Zhou family had no chance to do such a thing in this life, they were certainly selfish and cold-tempered.
She originally asked the Taoist priest to spread those "rumors" in order to save more people, but unexpectedly, the Zhou family still failed to separate from the Zhao family and got together again.
It was raining, and a group of about ten people went down the mountain through the faint light of the evening, and finally arrived in the town when it was dark.
The three members of the Zhou family were wearing coir raincoats and leaning against each other, with no shelter from the rain. They just sat there.
At first glance, it seems to be motionless, as if dead.
The group of people ran over quickly.
It was indeed three people from the Zhou family. The legs of both father and son were broken. Mother Zhou only cried there. When she saw everyone, she wailed, "You are finally here..."
