90: The mother of the little cannon fodder in the control group is reborn

Fortunately, it was all Hua Lingling's fault for scaring herself. Chao Da Zhuang's wrist was still warm, even warmer than Hua Lingling's palm.

In other words, Chao Dazhuang had a fever.

"I'm going to borrow a tractor from the branch secretary."

After Hua Lingling finished speaking, she was about to go out, but Liu Caiye stopped her and refused to let her go, saying:

"It's just a fever. You don't have to spend that wasted money. I'll just give him some medicine and it'll be over."

"Oh."

Hua Lingling didn't force it. She came here just for humanitarian reasons. Since there was no problem, she naturally wanted to leave.

"Then let's go back first."

Liu Caiye stopped the person again and asked Ai Ai:

"Can you sit down for a while? I, I'm scared to be alone."

'Isn't that person lying on the ground? '

Of course, Hua Lingling didn't say this. After all, these two people were her elders, and they couldn't talk nonsense when they were living in peace.

After finding two small benches and sitting down, Hua Lingling asked Chao Shuyu if it was cold. After receiving the answer that it was not cold, the couple sat next to each other in the main room and watched Liu Caiye feeding Chao Dazhuang in the back room. Medicine, with no intention of helping anymore.

When Liu Caiye came out, she found a stool and sat down opposite Hua Lingling and her mother. After a while of silence, she said slowly:

"I really thought your dad was dying just now. You don't know. After I heard the noise and came out, when I found your dad in the thatched shed, he was cold all over!

Two days ago, on the day the two brothers left, your dad was very drunk again. He came back in the middle of the night and we had a fight. The fight was so severe that even the bed had a hole. I was too embarrassed to go out for the past two days. , your dad is also embarrassed, but he can't bear it and wants to drink and play cards. It's like being talked down to. He goes crazy if he doesn't go for a day. I can't control him, so I just let him go.

I always thought before, what's the use of having such a man? I was the one working at home and outside the house, and besides drinking, he played cards. When I was so tired and sick that I was about to die, he was still drinking and playing cards. It would be better to just die!

When I saw him like that tonight, I really thought he was dead. At that time, I didn't even feel that this was such a good thing. I just felt that the sky was about to collapse!

You said, I have been relying on myself for decades when I was married to him, so why do I still feel uncomfortable when he dies? Ah! What a bitch! "

Liu Caiye laughed at herself. Under the dim light, her smile was uglier than crying.

Hua Lingling can understand that this idea of ​​dependence has been instilled from generation to generation. Growing up in such an environment, even if Liu Caiye is a mother who values ​​girls over boys, her subconscious has already been subtly influenced, but she herself is not aware of it. It wasn't until today that I suddenly discovered it.

A woman who favored girls over boys found herself dependent on a useless man in the end. Such a discovery made her feel crushed and unbelievable, as if the so-called "preferring girls over boys" in the first half of her life was a joke.

"You are already very powerful, much more powerful than those women who favor boys over girls."

Hua Lingling couldn't help but comfort her.

Although she is not a vested interest, she really feels that Liu Caiye is very powerful in this era of "preferring girls over boys". Even in her previous life, she always wanted a son. Of course, it's not that she doesn't love herself. Daughter, it's just that she knows herself. If she has a son, her daughter will definitely come last.

Liu Caiye sneered and said nothing, immersed in her own world.

Hua Lingling didn't know what to say, so she simply stopped and held her daughter's little hand and sat quietly until her daughter fell asleep leaning on her arm.

"Xiao Yu is asleep, I will carry her back first."

It was the first time that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law got along so peacefully, and Hua Lingling was really moved.

Hua Lingling's words were not a question, but a notice. She picked up Chao Shuyu and left. Liu Caiye raised her head and glanced at their backs, then looked back at the figure on the ground, withdrew her gaze and continued to be depressed.

She still couldn't figure out why she reacted like this tonight.

"Mom~"

Chao Shuyu shouted vaguely.

"Hey! Go to sleep! Mom will take you home."

Hua Lingling held her heavy daughter in her arms, holding a flashlight in one hand, and had to be careful of potholes on the road. The walk home was not very smooth, and she might get sprained if she was not careful.

When I got home, it was already late at night. I stripped my daughter to only her autumn clothes and long trousers and stuffed them into the bed. Hua Lingling went out and closed the front door and the main room door again. Then she went back to the east room and took off her cotton-padded jacket and trousers. Also got on the kang.

go to bed.

The next day, both women got up late.

We had an early lunch together. Chao Shuyu rarely went out to play, and he didn't want to write pinyin, so he just followed Hua Lingling like a big tail.

"Hey, why are you always following me?"

Hua Lingling, who had an extra big tail, asked her with a smile.

Chao Shuyu tilted his head and replied cutely:

"What didn't I do?"

Hua Lingling laughed out loud, her daughter was so cute!

After touching her daughter's little head, Hua Lingling continued to work on herself. She washed the pots and dishes, and her daughter helped pour water; When the water comes out, my daughter will help press the water...

Although Chao Shuyu is young, she can do a lot of work. Hua Lingling is not a spoiled child. She has been taught to do housework since she was a child, such as lighting fires, cooking rice porridge, heating meals, sweeping the floor, washing dishes, washing socks, etc. She can do it all, and she is very diligent, and she also enjoys herself while doing it.

For example, roasting sweet potatoes and peanuts when lighting a fire, hanging on the handle when pressing water, using a broom as a fan when sweeping the floor, and of course playing with water and bubbles when washing things.

"Hey, Xiao Yu's mother, what happened to your father-in-law and mother-in-law last night? Did something really happen to your father-in-law?"

Suddenly, the door was opened, and a woman who lived in the alley in front walked in with a swagger, her face full of curiosity.

Following the woman's voice, a few more round heads appeared on the wall of Hua Lingling's house.

"It's okay, I just drank too much."

Hua Lingling replied calmly.

"Is it really okay? Then why is your mother-in-law crying and shouting to find your partner, and also saying that your father-in-law is dying? Is it really not okay?"

The other person said the last sentence very quietly.

"It's okay."

Hua Lingling answered again.

She understood what the other party meant. The Chinese New Year was coming soon, and they were afraid that Chao Dazhuang would suddenly disappear, and that they would not be able to have a good New Year by then, and would have to do nothing, which was unlucky.

Many people will think so, but it is beyond human control to worry about when the elderly are gone. It is just a waste of worry.

"Really? You can't lie to me! My family still hopes that this year will bring luck to the whole family! Alas! Why are we living so poor!"
