Seventy-year-old book: The villain Zaizai’s best mother

After a while, Xia's father, his two sons, his elder sister-in-law Qiu Guofang and his younger sister Minghui came back in a hurry.

They heard other people's rumors go wrong. They all said that Xia's mother fell off the river cliff and was left unconscious with a bloody head. Although they didn't say it clearly, the meaning was almost as bad.

Xia's father's heart was beating like a drum at that time, and his legs were so frightened that he hurried home without even bothering to ask for leave.

The horrific scene on the road kept lingering in his mind, and he almost tripped over himself several times.

At this moment, I saw the old wife sitting on the kang, with her back leaning on the quilt, talking to the eldest daughter.

Xia's father groaned, "Hi, are you okay?"

Xia's mother: "It's okay, I just twisted my legs and feet. It doesn't matter."

It was really okay to see Xia's mother, so a few people breathed a sigh of relief and were in the mood to chat with Xia Mingshuang.

The original owner used to be close to his aunt since he was a child, but he was not very close to his brothers and sisters, because his aunt always said that your eldest brother is a fool, your brother is a fool, your sister is a fool, and you are the only one in your family who is handsome and smart. When you grow up, you can be your brother's wife, or give your brother another wife.

The brother the aunt mentioned was her biological son, Xia Mingshuang's cousin.

Because the original owner was not close to her family, her brothers and her brothers didn't talk much to her, and they were basically silent when they met and greeted her.

Before it was time to eat, Brother Xia and Brother Xia said they would go to work again.

Sister-in-law Qiu Guofang saw that her father-in-law was at home and Xia Mingshuang came over to visit relatives again, so she asked Minghui to be at home and she continued to work.

Seeing that others were not paying attention, Tian Huaihua chased her to the door of the courtyard and whispered: "Sister-in-law, the doctor said that I won't be able to work for at least two months. The autumn harvest will be finished in another two months."

Throughout the year, we only count on the wheat harvest and autumn harvest to earn more work points. If we don’t go there, we will earn less.

Qiu Guofang: "The mother was injured and can't work. She needs to take good care of her."

Tian Huaihua sighed, "Then... how about I go?"

Qiu Guofang glanced at her belly and said, "Goodbye."

Tian Huaihua has been feeling uncomfortable here and there since she was pregnant. Some people say she is pretending to be lazy and refuses to go to work, but she no longer complains about being uncomfortable even if she is taken around the house. But after all, this is the first child of a second marriage. My brother-in-law finally married a wife in his 20s. It would not be good if something went wrong with this first child.

Qiu Guofang didn't compare. After all, her parents-in-law also asked her to rest at home when she was pregnant, but she couldn't help but had to go to work. She basically stayed at home until she gave birth.

Tian Huaihua immediately smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, you are so open-minded. I am not lazy, I will go to work after I give birth to the child."

After she gave birth to a child, she still had to undergo confinement, and she would have to go to the Workers' Federation in the spring next year.

Qiu Guofang: "You go back and cook, I'll go to the fields."

Tian Huaihua went home happily, interrupting Xia's father and mother who were talking to Xia Mingshuang, "Mom, you broke your leg. This family has one less laborer to earn work points. I thought about going to support you, but my sister-in-law wouldn't let me. .”

The implication is that I wanted to go to the fields, but my sister-in-law wouldn’t let me.

Xia's father and mother are both honest people, or kind people. Bao Zi, even if he knew that Tian Huaihua was being naughty, he would not expose her.

If you expose her and make her unhappy with the second child, wouldn't that mean your family is not living a stable life?

Turn a blind eye and everyone is at ease.

Xia's mother pushed Xia's father and signaled him to hurry up.

Xia's father understood, so he took down the wooden box placed on the wall wedge partition, took out five dollars from it and handed it to Xia Mingshuang, "Shuangshuang, you take this money back. My parents are still young and can earn work points. You don’t need to support me in old age.”

Tian Huaihua was about to turn around and leave, but now she turned around, her eyes shining.

The day Minghui came back, she secretly gave money to her mother-in-law. She saw it and tried every possible means to get it from her mother-in-law. However, her mother-in-law refused to let go and did not give her a penny. She only said that the money belonged to Mingshuang and that she wanted to return it to her.

Xia's mother also wanted to return Xia Mingshuang in front of her, so that Tian Huaihua wouldn't worry about it.

Xia Mingshuang immediately understood what her parents meant. It was not that the original owner was unaware of the situation at home. She just disdained to get involved and always pretended to be aloof. She felt that she had a good relationship with her parents-in-law and several sisters, unlike Tian Huaihua. stupid.

She glanced at Tian Huaihua and said with a smile: "Mom and dad, I didn't give you any money before. Now that you are older, you should let your children take care of you in old age."

Tian Huaihua was so anxious that she rubbed her hands. How could she be so old? How could she only have children to support her in old age? Some parents-in-law work until they are 80 or [-] years old. Where are they?

Xia's father murmured: "Minghui is not married yet, and her parents are still young and capable."

Xia Mingshuang: "Then I will save this money to buy a dowry for Minghui, so that the family will not be in a tight situation." As she said this, she looked at Tian Huaihua and said calmly: "Those who buy a dowry for Minghui, don't worry about it. After all, my brother My brother's marriage was all a gift from his father and mother, but he didn't ask his sister-in-law and sister-in-law to pay back a cent."

Tian Huaihua curled her lips, knowing that she would not be able to get the money.

Xia Mingshuang didn't want to irritate her too much. After all, no matter how good Tianhuahua was, her family had spent a lot of money to marry her younger brother. It was not easy for country people to find a daughter-in-law these days.

She said: "It's hard for Huaihua to be pregnant. If I have enough money in the future, I will give you some money."

She took out a piece from her pocket and put it on the kang, "Sophora japonica, I usually don't come home often, and my mother's leg is sprained. You should take more care of me. You are caring for my mother, and I am also grateful to you. In the future, As long as I am free, I will never forget you."

Now she doesn't have to take care of her old lady and aunt, so she has plenty of money.

Tian Huaihua immediately beamed, gathered the money in her hands, and said with a smile: "Sister, don't worry, my mother is also my mother, I will take good care of her, not let my mother be burdened at all, and bring the food to my mouth every time. "

Xia's mother was frightened and said hurriedly: "No, no, you are pregnant too, so don't burden yourself."

Tian Huaihua was not happy that her mother-in-law prevented her from expressing her loyalty, and she must let Xia Mingshuang know that she would take good care of her mother-in-law.

Xia Ming pressed his mother's arm twice, indicating that she didn't have to worry about it.

You can't be tough when dealing with Tian Huaihua. After all, this is not the old Gu family. The Xia family can't drive Tian Huaihua away, they just want her to live peacefully.

If you can suppress her with a small amount of money, that would be the easiest thing.

Seeing Xia Mingshuang thinking so much about herself, Xia's mother was so excited that she shed tears. In the past, my daughter didn't treat her own mother very well. She either disliked her for being soft or disliked her for having no temper. But now she took the initiative to help her comfort Tian Huaihua. This was the first time.

Xia Mingshuang used the comb to help her comb her hair, "Mom, please take good care of yourself. I will come to see you tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."

Xia's mother: "I can't just sit around at home, it's uncomfortable. Bring over any sewing work you have, and I'll mend your cotton-padded clothes and sew all the children's clothes."

Xia Mingshuang: "No need for mine, the children's Minghui is finished."

Xia's father is not good at talking and is usually silent, but he is not idle now. He used scrap wood to refit several small benches and small chairs. He picked out a few of the sturdiest and most beautiful ones and brought them back to Xia Mingshuang. There were small chairs for Zaizai to sit on, and small benches for sitting on shucking corn and doing housework.
