Luohuazhishui

Chapter 20

Chen Zhishui sent the remains of Cheng Luohua and Wang Jiadong back to the Wang family.

"Luo'er, why don't you leave Wang Jiadong here and live with me. What are you doing guarding him? It's so annoying."

After Cheng Luohua heard it, although she was a little loose, Wang Jiadong was her husband in name after all.Leaving aside the fact that he died on the second day of his wedding, and that his husband didn't keep vigil for him and went to sleep at another "man"'s house just after his death, if word got out that she, Cheng Luohua, might have to be a A sinner who has been recorded in the history books for thousands of years.

"Fool, have you forgotten that you are still a "man"? If I really go to your house, I'm afraid that I will be blamed if I go to the street in the future."

Chen Zhishui scratched her head.

"It's because I didn't think carefully. Then...then I will go back. I will come to see you often in the future."

Cheng Luohua also wanted Chen Zhishui to come.But no.It's sure to be gossiped about.

"Go back. You are so busy that you don't need to come often, but it's just some daily chores, I can do it myself."

Chen Zhishui also understood her concerns.

But when she understood, Chen Zhishui still felt distressed.I am a little annoyed at myself, why didn't I discover my mind earlier.He had to wait until Luo'er got married to find out.

Chen Zhishui left.

Cheng Luohua was still leaning against the gate and looking at the empty path.Chen Zhishui was really kind, but this kindness made her both happy and sad.

Huanxi is for her meticulous consideration.

It's because she's a woman, it's not that Cheng Luohua doesn't love her because she's a woman, it's just because her sweetheart is a woman, so her kindness to her may not come from love, but pure sympathy.

confused.

But life still has to pass, Chen Zhishui will definitely not come here often again for the sake of her reputation after hearing her words.Even if she came, Cheng Luohua would at most be happy for a while, it was impossible for Chen Zhishui to help her or give her financial help.She knew that Chen Zhishui was not short of that money.But she has her own basic pride. She has hands and feet, and she can farm, embroider, do laundry and cook by herself.

Although tiring, but after so many years, it has long become a habit.

Cheng Luohua cleaned up the house and prepared to cook.It was found that the Wang family had nothing but two bags of flour.

That's right, the Wang family almost ran out of food for the wedding banquet yesterday.He also spent some money and cut more than a dozen catties of pork.The banquet in this farmhouse is like this. To hold a banquet, you only need to hire someone to cook, and you can bring your own ingredients, wine and sugar.And when the villagers come to eat wine, they don't need to pay money, just give a few catties or a few taels of grain.

Therefore, except for such great events as marriage or obtaining fame, ordinary peasant families do not hold banquets, because ordinary families can rarely afford it.For a big family in the village like the Wang family, it was not that difficult to hold banquets, but before the death of the elders, Wang Jiadong also lost money in gambling, so it became like this.

Chen Zhishui paid for Wang Jiadong's funeral.It's not certain how long it will take for her to return so much silver to Chen Zhishui.

In short, the most important thing to delay now is to find some work to make money.

After dinner, she took out the cloth and needlework that Mrs. Hu had left behind.I plan to embroider some handkerchiefs and go to the city to sell them.The food at home is enough for her to survive the winter.The Wang family's three mu of land is rented out for planting, and when spring comes next year, Cheng Luohua will have to take back one mu of land and plant it herself.

Cheng Luohua planned to take back the rent for that acre of land and had already owed it three times.In the past, the Wang family was not short of rent money, but now she is left alone, and that money is also very important to her.

It was getting dark.Cheng Luohua stopped what she was doing, and went to the courtyard to place candles and tributes to Wang Jiadong, and tonight she would keep a vigil for him.

When it comes to keeping spirits, the mountain villages on the edge of Nanning do not pay much attention to funerals.

There is no such thing as organizing a funeral banquet, and the funeral procession playing funeral songs. Ordinary people can't afford the money.Just wear a filial piety.When the two of the Wang family got old, they didn't pay so much attention when they had money, let alone no money now.

So Cheng Luohua just knelt in filial piety and stayed up all night, waiting for someone to come tomorrow to scatter paper money into the coffin and put incense sticks on it.Filial piety can also be taken off.

In the first three years, go to the grave every year on the death day, and then burn the paper normally on Qingming.

The night passed like that.

The coffin-bearers also came.Cheng Luohua walked in front and scattered paper money all the way.Although the villagers who had a good relationship with the Wang family were jealous of Cheng Luohua, but out of etiquette, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and lead the way and funeral for Cheng Luohua.

Seeing Wang Jiadong's coffin being covered with loess little by little, Cheng Luohua suddenly felt as if he had passed away.

The villagers stood around Wang Jiadong's coffin with their eyes closed.What he thought was that the Wang family died all at once, Cheng Luohua was simply too evil.

After covering the earth, burning the incense and burning the paper money, Cheng Luohua was ready to go back.But Jiang Sanshun's daughter-in-law Zhang stopped him.

"Luohua, you have just got married and such a big thing happened, so don't get angry. We women are like this. For the married daughter's family, if such a big thing happens, your father Don't blame your mother and younger brother for not coming to see you. Take care of the housework well, and if you have a lover by this time next year, it's good for you to remarry. Ah, don't get angry."

In this village, there are only two people Cheng Luohua likes from the bottom of her heart, one is Chen Zhishui, and the other is Zhang's daughter-in-law of Wang's neighbor Jiang Sanshun.

She is a well-known old lady in the village.She has a kind face and a kind heart, but she is a little cowardly in character, and she thinks her husband is too much.However, all the women in the village regard their husbands as their heaven, so it is normal for the villagers to be like Mrs. Zhang.

"Damn it, what are you doing here, you bitch?! Do you still think you are not unlucky enough! You want to kill me and find another man, don't you! Damn, see if I don't beat you to death!"

Jiang Sanshun walked for a while and looked back to see that his mother-in-law didn't know where she was, so she had to go back to look for it, but when she saw her and Cheng Luohua, the nemesis, holding hands so close, he immediately became angry.Rushing up and hitting Mrs. Zhang with a heavy hammer.

"Hiss—I was wrong in charge. Don't hit me, don't hit me. Woohoo. I know I was wrong."

The villagers are used to it. Anyway, Jiang Sanshun beat his wife not once or twice.

Cheng Luohua looked uncomfortable, but this was someone else's housework and she had no right to intervene.I had to watch Jiang Sanshun beat, kicked and dragged Mrs. Zhang home.

well.A man beats and scolds you all the time, why put up with him living with you anymore.

Cheng Luohua didn't understand, didn't understand such a woman, let alone why everyone in the village seemed to think this was a very common thing.

The author has something to say:

Wang Jiadong: The author didn't say that I was dead, why did you bury me?

Everyone: Anyway, you are going to die in this chapter, so bury it earlier and save less air!You are so ugly and pollute our green environment!

Wang Jiadong: ...What you said makes sense (smiles)

Everyone: Ah!Spicy eyes!Bury it, bury it!
