Rebirth Autumn Returns to the Countryside

Chapter 127 Who is more cowardly

Because she had a clear goal, Ding Guihua worked harder in learning to drive. She was definitely the first one to arrive at the training ground and get her hands on the first car. After completing a lap of practice and returning to the waiting area, Ding Guihua was not idle and chatted. She muttered to herself, gestured with her hands and coordinated with her feet, repeatedly practicing the driving technique, and then waited for the second round to practice in the car.

It is true that learning to drive is a technical job, but this technical job really requires thought. Ding Guihua soon became Coach Feng's teaching assistant. This village woman was able to make the students understand better when imparting techniques, and she never lost her temper. She sat in the passenger seat and patiently explained and demonstrated, allowing Coach Feng to have a good rest for two days and concentrate on teaching VIP students.

Ding Guihua also learned how to schedule the exam online. Without her daughter having to worry about anything, she arranged for the exams for Subject 3 and Subject 2 to be taken on the same day, secretly wanting to give her daughter a surprise.

As a result, on the afternoon of the eighth day of the first lunar month, Ding Guihua returned home with a beaming smile on her face. She didn't care about her frozen hands and feet and shouted loudly, "Qiu'er, Qiu'er, let's have a drink tonight—"

For the first time in his life, the miser was willing to spend money to buy a barrel of red wine. The driving school was outside the city, and the wine was made from grapes grown by farmers themselves. It was packed in a plastic barrel and the price was no more than a red bill.

Ding Guihua always remembered the feeling of being dizzy as if she had become an immortal the first time she drank red wine. She gritted her teeth and bought a barrel, wanting to celebrate properly. After all, she had passed two of the most difficult exams in a row and defeated so many young college students.

But even though the atmosphere was set at this point, there was another person in my daughter's room.

Cold old lady.

The old lady leaned against the head of Leng Yanqiu's bed, her whole body dejected like a dead leaf. When she saw Ding Guihua enter the room, she just raised her eyelids and closed them again, as if her heart was as calm as an ancient well.

Zhenbang followed her into the house and rubbed Ding Guihua's legs. Leng Yanqiu was just tidying up the house next door to the next door. He needed to clean it, turn on the heating, heat the kang, and lay out mats, quilts and pillows. Nothing was ready, so Leng Yanqiu went to Old Leng's house.

When I came back, I saw Ding Guihua standing in the yard, looking dazed and at a loss, holding a five-pound plastic bucket in her hand, like a lost child.

"Mom, how did you do on the test?"

It sounds more like the tone of a mother who wants her son to be successful.

Ding Guihua then became more lively, and boasted with great energy: "I passed the exams, subjects two and three. I will take subject four tomorrow and I can get the certificate."

"Really? Mom, you're awesome!" Leng Yanqiu was much happier than when she won first place in her grade. "Come into the house and warm up. We have to celebrate tonight!"

At this moment, Ding Guihua finally regained her joy. She raised the five-jin wine barrel and said in a low voice, "Mom bought some wine. I've tasted it. It's sweet..."

Do you need to be so cautious when speaking in your own home, in a large mansion?

Leng Yanqiu still had bedding in the truck bed. When he saw Ding Guihua like this, he immediately understood.

It was agreed that the house would be divided in half to Ding Guihua, but in the end, bringing the old lady in directly left a psychological trauma on Ding Guihua.

"Mom, the Leng family's grandmother fainted in her yard. Secretary Ma couldn't contact Leng Zhiqiang, so he came to me." She pointed to the bed of the tricycle, "At first I thought about placing her at home so that it would be more convenient to take care of her. If you are unhappy, I can just run back and forth and clean up the house there."

Not only did she say that she would give half of the house to Ding Guihua, she also promised to provide for the old couple in their old age. At that time, Mr. Leng also said that he didn't need her, his granddaughter, to see him off to his grave. As a result...

Ding Guihua quickly waved her hands and shook her head: "No, no, I'm not unhappy. Even if we encounter an old man we don't know lying on the ground, we have to lend a hand, right?"

Leng Yanqiu smiled: "Mom, I'll make the bedding, you don't have to worry about anything. Even if she is a daughter-in-law, she has no legal obligation to support her mother-in-law, let alone a divorced ex-daughter-in-law? You don't have to feel psychologically burdened, just do a good deed today."

It was impossible to stay in Lao Leng's room. A handful of loose change was still curled up on the kang and the floor, the stove was cold and the dishes were a mess. It was obvious that the old lady had no intention of continuing to live a good life.

Fortunately, the gate of the hospital was never closed, so the old lady was found. She was sent to the health center and received two bottles of glucose before she recovered.

The old man is gone, the eldest son is gone, and the eldest grandson is still alive. How can the old lady still have the desire to live?

Secretary Ma also felt that it was a bit unfair to hand the old lady over to Leng Yanqiu, so he pointed out a way out: "If it really doesn't work, send her to a nursing home. Anyway, we can't contact that bastard Leng Zhiqiang. I think we can find a way to process the procedures and hand over this old courtyard to the village."

But Leng Yanqiu remembered her promise. When she first came back, she was determined to make the old couple rich and happy. However, too many disputes occurred later, which made the relationship between the grandparents and grandchildren tense. But this did not affect her decision. The old lady also loved her, but she loved her son and grandson more.

Secretary Ma also reminded Leng Yanqiu that the Leng family still had ten acres of land. At the moment, no one else could be relied upon, so Leng Yanqiu was the only one to take over, and the land could not be left abandoned.

It was Leng Yanqiu who intervened in the corn harvest at the beginning, but later Old Man Leng went back on his word and took the land into his own hands. He spent a lot of money and effort to complete the winter wheat sowing in about the same time as other farmers. When the weather got warmer, he would start a series of farm work such as watering and weeding.

"Fortunately, nowadays, all operations are mechanized, so even harvesting wheat is not that tiring. You and your mother can handle it. In the past, your mother was also a hard-working person who collected crops."

Secretary Ma gave Ding Guihua a high evaluation, and it was true that she was diligent. As for the comments in the village that she was no longer from Ma Liu Village and was a widow, what nonsense are you talking about? It's not the time when you had to get a letter of introduction to go anywhere.

Ding Guihua was still a cowardly person at heart, especially when facing Old Lady Leng, but she soon discovered that the old lady's attitude was even more cowardly than her own. When she put the bowl down during dinner, the sound was a little loud, and the old lady was frightened.

Older people are actually more afraid of death. After the initial days of being hopeless and not eating or drinking, when they feel weak all over and dizzy and can't even boil water or cook, the old lady has already regretted it. She will barely hold on to get off the kang and move outside the yard to try to call for help. Her regret reaches its peak before she faints.

That's why he obediently received the infusion and allowed the secretary to arrange everything for his granddaughter. He was happy when he moved into his granddaughter's home, as at least he wouldn't die in a deserted place with no one paying attention to him.

The old lady, who had survived a life-and-death crisis, felt relaxed when she arrived at her granddaughter's house. Leng Yanqiu wanted to bring her food to the head of the kang, but she shook her head and refused, insisting on moving to the room where Ding Guihua lived to eat together.
