From Cultivator to Widow

After noon, the hot water was boiled, the bath was taken, and everyone put on new clothes.

Zhang Weiguo also didn't have a deep understanding of his father's death. He only knew that his father was basically not at home during the Chinese New Year. It should be said that in his memory, his father was not at home once during the New Year's reunion.

He still remembered what his grandfather said when he asked about it last year, saying that his father was on duty and that the country needed him, so he would not go home during the Chinese New Year.

He cried at that time, why does everyone else have a father at home, but only his father is not there?

After losing his father, he heard a lot of gossip from his little friends, saying that he was a child without a father, and he also had a few fights with them. After he told his brother about it, his brother said not to tell his mother, Then he went and beat those people up.

Wearing new clothes, Zhang Weiguo was a little tangled. His brother said that he should not mention his father in front of his mother again, and his mother would be sad.

So, let's not mention Dad this time.

As soon as the child put on new clothes, he wanted to show off to his friends. Zhang Baoguo was the first to wash and he didn't know where to go. Zhang Weiguo looked through his new clothes. He wore several in winter, and the new clothes were at the innermost. No one else can see it at all.

It's a pity, no one else has made new clothes at home, and there is no need to show them off.

Su An saw what Zhang Weiguo was thinking when he puffed out his mouth just after taking a shower, and found something to do for him: "Mom is washing clothes in the back, can you do Mom a favor?"

"what?"

"You take out the soybeans and pumpkin seeds from the cabinet and put them on the table. Tomorrow, someone will come to the house to pay New Year's greetings, and my mother will give them to eat."

Speaking of which, the days when you can only wash by hand without a washing machine is really a sigh. When will the washing machine be available? What a great invention the washing machine is, freeing women from the daily scrubbing brush.

Speaking of this, Zhang Weiguo hesitated and discussed with his mother: "Mom, can't we keep those for ourselves?"

He acted coquettishly with his mother, "Every household has it, we don't have to take it out. Our four brothers will finish it soon."

No one gave Su Hui a daily amount, everyone had a little bit of it, so he couldn't eat it openly at all.

Su An shook her head, without answering directly, and asked Zhang Anguo, "Anguo, do you think my brother is right?"

Zhang Anguo looked left and right, his brother winked at him, but... he stood by his mother!

"Mom is right. We have to take it out. Others have it, but we don't have it."

Su Hui asked the youngest Zhang Dingguo again: "Dingguo, what do you think?"

Dingguo took out the big pocket of his clothes and said honestly: "I have something to eat for New Year's Eve and New Year's Eve. My pocket is ready. If there is no place, I will not go." I pestered my mother to make the pocket bigger.

Su An touched Zhang Weiguo: "Understood? If my mother didn't prepare for this, others would call her stingy. Would you like to hear others say that you are stingy? No one else would be willing to be friends with us." There is no return, and it is not impossible to give less, but there is nothing, and the poorest and meanest people in the family will not have empty dishes on the first day of the new year.

Su An did not treat them badly when it comes to eating. The eggs laid by the chickens in the family are basically served on the table. Since she has the ability, she will do with refined grains, fish, and meat. A few children are better than her. When he first came, his skinny appearance was a little better, but there was not much change, after all, it was not long.

The family did not treat them badly, and Su An also hoped that they would not develop a stingy temper.

Zhang Weiguo thought about it for a while, and went away obediently, but he chose the biggest one in private and put it aside. Su An turned a blind eye to this.

Su Hui was doing laundry, and someone picked up a bucket of water to fetch water. These households only had wells in their homes. They could go to the riverside for washing clothes and the like, but they had to choose what to eat.

Because there is only one woman in Su Hui’s family with four children, and carrying water is a heavy task, which is usually done by men. They will not come to Su Hui’s house to fetch water to avoid suspicion. When the time comes, a woman will come here.

Everyone here calls her Aunt Shun. She lives right in front of their families. She is a famous eight-woman in the village, and she likes to gossip the most.

She first walked around the outside of the house, took a look at the furniture in the house, and smashed it. Although these furniture are old, but the repairer is very skilled. If you don't look carefully, you can't see where to repair it However, the tables, stools and cabinets are all complete, at least more than her home. The door of the room is ajar, so she can't see inside, and the window is blocked by something, so she can only look vaguely.

She wanted to get close to see it, but a child came out: "Auntie, what are you looking at?"

Fang Shunding looked at it and saw that it was the youngest child, named Dingguo.

"Oh, it's Dingguo. I'll see if your mother is here. Let me get some water."

Zhang Dingguo twitched his eyebrows. Just now, when the eldest brother went out, he forgot to close the courtyard door, and Dawei also went out. Really, next time, the eldest brother must remember to close the door.

"My mother is right behind, doing laundry." He looked at her vigilantly. Some people came into the house, but some things could not be found. It was not precious, but disgusting.

"Oh, good."

Fang Shun went to the backyard with a bucket. Sure enough, Su An was doing laundry by the side of the backyard.

She sat down on the stone next to her, looked at Su An's face carefully, and patted her shoulder with relief: "I'm doing laundry, eh, I'm afraid to see you can't come out, relax, You have this house, and four children. With your identity, the village will take care of you. How to say, if you can live your life, don't be a bullshit."

Of course Su Hui doesn't know how to dig a bull's horn. How can she act like a bull's horn? As soon as the call came up, Su An was a little puzzled.

She buried herself in the laundry: "I know, you're here to fetch water, right?"

Fang Shun didn't see the reaction he wanted to see, and sighed softly: "Yeah, but don't worry, let's talk, not about this, I heard someone say something before, I don't know if I should or not. Tell you." She changed the subject and paused, hoping that Su An would pick up on her words.

Su Hui didn't lift her head: "The mouth grows on others, I'm not interested in listening to what the **** has to say."

Fang Shun choked. Even though she was often referred to by others as a mother-in-law, even if she knew that Su An was not talking about herself, she felt a little uncomfortable, so she skipped those and said, "I think it's better to tell you, otherwise you will I don't know, how wrong it is, your mother-in-law is secretly talking about you." She lowered her voice and looked around to create an atmosphere of "whispering".

"I heard others say that when your mother-in-law was chatting with her friends, she said that you were ignorant and disrespectful to the elderly, that you separated from the family and did not seek the opinion of the elderly, and that you took so many things. Take care of her..."

Fang Shun let out a long sigh: "When my family split up, there was a lot of trouble, but your mother-in-law is really, the split has been split, and what you took should be right. I don't know what she's angry about? It's not me. Say, everyone knows that your mother-in-law has long been biased in her heart, and if she suffers, she will suffer in the middle of your man's line, with a big brother on top and a younger brother below, you can't rely on the two..."

Su An washed her clothes with water for the last time, wrung them dry, put them in the empty bucket, and stood up: "Don't carry water, it's gone, don't come again in the future, I don't want to let the people in my house restless. My door, please."

Fang Shun, who hadn't said that she was happy, turned green and white. She hadn't thought that Su An had such a personality. She looked gentle and gentle before, not so fierce.

She pouted: "I don't know good people, so if you don't pick, you won't pick. Do you think you are the only one with a well? Later, when your mother-in-law rides on her head, you'll know that I'm fine." It's just that she didn't hear what she wanted to say. She was still a little disappointed. She still wanted to hear her complaints. It was another mother-in-law and daughter-in-law drama that involved their family. There must be many people willing to listen.

But now it can also be said that Su An is stingy, and the neighbors are unwilling to pick up water. She comes out with an empty bucket, and then goes to a crowded place for a circle...

Su An looked at the background she was leaving and shook her head.

She knows how her parents-in-law are, from the memory of the original body, and the personal relationship during this period of time.

There is some eccentricity, and it is not impossible to say something bad about her, but it is the first time she has encountered someone who came to provoke her, and who was so stupid.

Even if Li Manfen was dissatisfied with her and said small things about her, what if the family had already split up, that was her real mother-in-law, not her own mother, she still had two sons by her side, she just had to do her due obligations.

She hung up her clothes and went into the kitchen. It was almost time. Later, she would go there for a reunion dinner.
