Fortune telling

Before reaching the door of Zhou Laoer's house, I heard Zhou Laoer's wife Jin Xiu yelling, as if there was something extremely resentful in my heart, and I urgently needed to vent it.Fan Wenzhi quietly squeezed into the crowd, and saw Jin Xiu sitting on the threshold of the main room, pointing at Zhou Erer with one hand and yelling at him, while wiping tears with the other.

"Zhou Er Er, you who kill thousands of knives, my mother has worked for your Zhou family, and you are disgusted now. Send this little bastard away, or my mother will never end with you."

"Shut up, what do you know, you mother-in-law!" Zhou's second blushed, obviously extremely dissatisfied with his wife's failure to give him face in front of everyone.

Fan Wenzhi moved closer to the front, and only then did he see clearly that there was a little boy about five or six years old sitting in the corner with a timid face in the main room.Being pointed and talked about by everyone there, the little boy was very afraid, and there were tears in his eyes, but they never fell.

Seeing this scene, coupled with the discussion among the people around him, Fan Wenzhi finally figured out the whole story.It turns out that Zhou Lao Er and Jin Xiu have always wanted a boy.After giving birth to two girls in a row, in order to fight for a son, Jin Xiu had several miscarriages in a row, which resulted in habitual miscarriage, and she could no longer conceive a child.This can be regarded as completely cutting off Zhou Erer's son's dream.Back then, Zhou Laoer had a big fight with his wife because of this matter, and almost got involved.Back then, Zhou Laoer even prepared the money for family planning, but how could he think that his wife would not be able to give birth, Zhou Laoer's mood can be imagined.

Since then, Zhou Laoer and Jin Xiu have been arguing frequently for three days, which is known to all knowledgeable people.Their house was in a state of turmoil every day, and Zhou Laoer's two daughters sometimes ran to Fan Wenzhi's house to hide for a while.Because of this, Zhou Laoer couldn't stay at home anymore, so he simply followed a contractor to work in the city.Zhou Lao Er is a mason himself, and he has indeed saved some money in the past few years.Everyone thought that the next one to repair the house would be Zhou Er'er's family. Who would have thought that Zhou Er'er was silent this week and suddenly brought a little boy back.

Jin Xiu was still crying, crying about how miserable her life was, how much she had contributed to the Zhou family, how much she had ruined her body in order to have a son, and now she couldn't even do heavy work.This week, the second child has some money and starts to dislike her for not having a son, and so on, and so on.

Zhou's second child was really big-headed, and kicked his eldest daughter Zhou Hehua, "Hurry up and pull your mother up, it's embarrassing here, looks good?"

Although the two sisters Zhou Hehua and Zhou Taohua were also dissatisfied that Zhou's second brother brought them a younger brother back suddenly, they were afraid of their father and dragged Jinxiu up, "Mom, let's go. Let's go back to the house. Everyone It's all a joke."

"What are you afraid of? Zhou Er Er can do it, so I can't say it." Jin Xiu jumped and shouted, afraid that the people outside the courtyard could not hear him.

"Shut up, how long are you going to make a fuss? You don't listen to anyone, and you're just making mourning here! I'm not dead yet." Zhou Lao Er slapped the table heavily.The table was almost falling apart.

"Hey, you didn't give birth to this child, Zhou Laoer, right? You can't give birth to such a good-looking child. This child is already five or six years old. Zhou Laoer, you are abducted and trafficked!" A rascal Pretending to be serious, he circled around the child, and then said loudly with malicious intentions.

These words were like a drop of water falling into a frying pan, and it exploded cracklingly.Everyone said one after another: "Where did you buy the doll, Zhou, please introduce one to me."

"Zhou Lao Er, you are a bitch, abducting and selling children."

"I miss my son like crazy."

Zhou Er Er seemed a little flustered, but quickly covered it up. "Get out of the way. If I say it's my son, it's my son. You can take it easy. Damn, why are you still sitting up? Why don't you get up quickly."

Jin Xiu seemed to have been awakened by the rogue's words, and quickly got up, dragging and pulling the rogue out of the main room. "Get the hell out of here, we don't care about our house."

Fan Wenzhi looked at the child, who looked very good, with delicate features. Although he was wearing rough clothes, he was clean from head to toe, and he didn't have a runny nose.Fan Wenzhi has a good impression of this child, because he is the second such clean child in this town.As for who is the first, it goes without saying, naturally he knows everything.

The child just sat quietly in the corner, looking like he was about to cry or not, very pitiful and very painful.At first glance, this child was not something that Zhou Laoer could have born, let alone a child who grew up in a small place.It is very likely that Zhou Laoer really bought him from a trafficker.

Zhou Laoer didn't care what others said, and shouted loudly: "This is my son Zhou Laoer, you can't see it! If you have the ability, go and give birth to one yourself." Holding the pole at the door, he started to rush outside people.

Fan Wenzhi walked out with the crowd, couldn't help but look back at the child who had been kidnapped from nowhere, maybe he would forget his biological parents in a few years.At that time, who will remember that there is a problem with the origin of this child.He will only say that this is the son of Zhou's second family.

When he got home, Fan Wenzhi was in a bad mood.First he was fined to stand, and then he watched such a family ethics drama, Fan Wenzhi was somewhat depressed.

At the dining table, Fan Wenzhi poked the rice a few times with his chopsticks. He had no appetite, and finally said: "Dad, do you know that Zhou Lao Er brought a child back? I heard that Zhou Lao Er bought it from outside. .”

"Why do you care so much about other people's affairs? I met your kindergarten teacher today, and she said that you are bullying children in the kindergarten again." The blind man said calmly without raising his head.

Fan Wenzhi pursed his lips, he didn't expect Shui Tong Yao to be a snitch.In this regard, Fan Wenzhi believes that Teacher Shui Tongyao not only has a poor teaching level, but now even has problems with his character.

"It was just an accident. Dad, you haven't heard about Zhou Laoer's family. They all said that Zhou Laoer would not come back until the Spring Festival in previous years. This time he came back so early. I heard that he didn't even pay his salary. , there must be ghosts in my heart."

"Eat, don't worry about other people's affairs." The blind man did not pretend to speak, as if he was very unwilling to talk about these dirty things in front of his son.

"Dad, do you know something?" Fan Wenzhi asked unyieldingly.The reason why he asked again and again was because the adults had more sources of information, especially the blind father, who might have some inside information.Besides, he really has a little bit of interest in that kid.

But the blind man made up his mind and refused to say a single unnecessary word.It seems that there is something taboo.Fan Wenzhi couldn't figure it out, so there was nothing to say.Or because he was too young, the blind father felt that he should not interfere with these grown-ups.

Yong'an Town was in a state of excitement that day, and maybe all the people discussed on that day and in the days that followed were the son who suddenly appeared in Zhou's second family.Everyone talked a lot, saying that Zhou's second son must have been bought. Although the person concerned denied it, it couldn't stand up to everyone's rich imagination and the power of rumors.

I have seen it on TV and heard about it outside, but this is the first time that it happened right next to me. Think about it, isn't this exciting?Every time Zhou Laoer walked out of the house, someone would chase him and ask, "Zhou Laoer, did your son buy it for a lot of money? Do you have any more, or I will buy one too."

"Get out!" Zhou Er Er couldn't stay at home anymore, so he decided to go back to the city to work first.As for the boy, leave it to Jinxiu to take care of.And the mess outside, let Jin Xiu deal with it too.Anyway, Jin Xiu is a shrew, those people dare not play wild in front of Jin Xiu.

Throughout the whole winter, the Zhou family's new son had not been seen stepping out of the house.But even so, the heat of this matter lasted for a whole winter in Yong'an Town.Who made Yong'an Town small and remote.The usual thing is that the chickens of the west family were stolen, and the cows of the east family went crazy.Suddenly came the news of buying a son. Can you not be excited for the people in the small town who usually live in poverty?Can I not pay attention?It was not until the Spring Festival was approaching that everyone changed their minds.

Although others don't know it, Fan Wenzhi knows it well. With his current hearing ability, the voice of the Zhou family next door is completely defenseless for him.Jin Xiu's temper is very grumpy, especially after this incident, it tends to become more serious.In the past, they only beat and scolded the two daughters occasionally, but now they focus all their firepower on the new son.He scolded and beat the boy every three days.Fan Wenzhi often heard the boy crying softly in the middle of the night, and Jin Xiu's merciless abuse.

Fan Wenzhi sympathized with the boy's experience, but he never thought of changing this situation.In his opinion, this is just someone else's life, and he has no reason and no need to participate.Everything will be fine.Therefore, Fan Wenzhi never told anyone about what he heard.

On the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, the kindergarten has not yet closed.The children all had snot all over their faces from the cold.Fan Wenzhi felt that he couldn't take it anymore, and today his clothes were used as rags by a kid again.At that time, if everyone hadn't crowded together, he wouldn't have been unable to avoid it.It was so disgusting, the first thing Fan Wenzhi did when he got home was to quickly take off his coat.

The two rooms upstairs were reserved for Fan Wenzhi, one was used as a bedroom, and the other was originally said to be a utility room, but later Fan Wenzhi arranged it and changed the room into a study.Although there are only a few books.Fan Wenzhi came down from upstairs and went to the kitchen to take a look. There was preserved chicken in the cupboard, so Fan Wenzhi quickly took a piece and put it in his mouth.It's so delicious, Fan Wenzhi licked his fingers.It happened that the mute came in from the outside and saw Fan Wenzhi stealing food, he immediately smiled, pulled Fan Wenzhi to the cupboard, and gave him two more pieces of cured chicken.He also gestured and told him that someone came to ask the blind man for fortune-telling, and they were in the main room, and asked Fan Wenzhi not to disturb them.
