Chapter 23

Mother Zhang looked at the bag in her son's hand and said nothing more. She took out the pig's hooves and put the bag in the main room. Look at the time is not early, Zhang mother let Zhang Guoqing go to the kitchen to burn the fire, she went to the backyard to pick some vegetables. In Zhangjia, that is to say, Zhang Guoqing would drill into the kitchen to help with the fire. The men of Zhangjia did not go into the kitchen to help. They thought that these domestic affairs were the work of women. There are no other vegetables in the yard after the late autumn. In addition to some Chinese cabbage, there are also some small vegetables covered with straw, that is, there are no unearthed white radish and sweet potato. To see if there is any unexpected harvest in the chicken coop, pick some yellowing vegetables.

Zhang's mother took vegetables, came in to see him with matches one by one, thick hand thick feet, heartache bad. I don't know if I love him or it? You should know that a match is also money. You can use it by blowing hard when you bury a fire in the stove. That is, Zhang Guoqing is a waste, she can not bear to scold, if it is not for another person, it will be bloody. She would like to break a cent into two and waste nothing.

Busy in the kitchen, Zhang Guoqing has been helping her burn the fire, and Zhang mother to talk about some gossip. Mother and son just made lunch. The staple food is still Wotou, which is usually made of coarse grain powder, water and wild vegetables. This time, it is corn dregs Wotou. The most familiar and common one in Zhangjia is Wowotou. In order to satisfy the family, wowowotou is pinched greatly.

It's different from that in the morning, when we cook corn dregs porridge, we make four dishes without any oil seeds, and we just cook them with water. Mrs. Zhang couldn't bear to have cooking. What she could stew was definitely stewed, including a bowl of black pickled vegetables, a bowl of pure Chinese cabbage, a bowl of long beans, and a bowl of stewed potatoes without frying in oil.

The trumpet in the village sounded. It was time for work. The family members in the field were going home. Mother Zhang poured hot water, and when they came back, they could have a drink of hydrolysis to relieve their fatigue.

Zhang's father and his two sons first walked into the kitchen and drank Wanshui. Then he ran to the well to wash and pat the dirt on his body. Finally, he took a breath and went back to the main room and took out a long pipe to smoke dry tobacco.

Huang Cuilan, sister-in-law Huang Cuilan and Lin Juhua, her second sister-in-law, wade into the gate with their daughters, wheat sprouts and ears. From time to time, they have to talk about the trivial matters in the village. Women have no treatment for men. They wash their hands with their children, and after arranging the children, they help to serve the dishes and chopsticks in a hurry.

The four-year-old wheat seedling, dressed in washed white hair and patched cotton padded jacket, would clean herself up with the hot water her mother had washed. After cleaning up herself, she took the two-year-old wheat ears into the main room for dinner.

Eryatou's head and body are thin, just like African children. We are used to it. When we look at the children in the village, they are not fat. Zhang Guoqing is afraid that her neck can't hold her head. She secretly thinks that the milk powder will supplement the children.

After Zhang's father picked up the chopsticks, everyone was busy eating and no one spoke. Zhang Guoqing thought that the corn dregs and wowowotou would not be eaten up and would be left behind. As a result, everyone ate all the corn dregs and wowowotou.

He tried to ignore the pain in his throat. After eating one, he drank corn dregs porridge and just wanted to vomit it out. But he didn't have the courage. As long as he dared to waste food, he would be beaten by his father and his mother would not recognize him. Then he finished eating porridge. He killed himself and stopped eating, which made Zhang's father ask him whether he was enough or not and give him the nest in his hand. He would cry.

The four bowls of vegetables were eaten up even by the salt seller. Watching everyone eat with relish. Living in poverty and food and clothing, no one cares about taste and vision. It is a rare family in the village to have enough food.

He and Zhou Jiao often eat coarse grains in modern times. Although the sweet potato rice is full of sweet potatoes, and sweet potatoes are not delicious in later generations, they do not have a strong voice at all. I don't know what kind of nest is tomorrow. The first year of Zhangjia's nest is three days and sixty-five days. You can eat it for a year. In addition to new year's Eve, white flour Wotou and dumplings. Not to mention a year, even a meal can't stand, which is similar to eating grass.

I don't know if Jiaojiao has thought of Wowotou. Zhang Guoqing now finally understands why the girl's face is yellow and waxy. It is estimated that she is starving because she can't eat. Her new daughter-in-law can't be picky when she enters the house. Fortunately, they have stock now.

After lunch, I watched the women at home busy with the dishes and chopsticks. The head of Zhang's family didn't speak, and the three brothers of Zhang Guofu didn't leave. They all sat and waited. Zhang's father took out a dry cigarette, took a few puffs, looked at his three sons, and then looked at the old wife beside him. He was eager to talk but stopped.

Zhang Guofu three brothers looked at each other, or the eldest, Zhang Guofu first broke the silence, looked at his father and said: "Dad, if you have any difficulties, you can say that we three people are not ambiguous."

Zhang's father nodded and looked at the three people's melancholy and said, "it's not difficult to see that you are all big and we are old. In this house, the trees are big branches. Last time I said that after the new year's separation, I thought I had to repair the house before it was winter, otherwise there would be conflicts between the separation and the brotherhood would be weak. I don't care what other families are like. When your grandfather was still alive, he said that the old man didn't want his children to be separated from each other. Apart from fraternity, there was no other benefit. There was no quiet person with a lot of people.But if you have separated your family, you should support each other if you have something to do. Look at your uncle and uncle. No one dares to bully our family in Zhangjia village. "

The second Zhang Guoqiang looked at his father and mother, and then at his brother, but he didn't want to separate his family.

The two children in his family are small, and he also knows the virtue of his mother-in-law. After the separation of the family, no one will take care of the children. It's hard for him to support the whole family by himself.

Besides, the elder brother and sister-in-law are kind-hearted and never quarrel with him. Even if his mother-in-law is lazy, his sister-in-law will smile, not to mention that the two children are usually taken care of by several nephews and nieces. Now, the son Xiaoshi follows his son and they are still staying in the elder sister-in-law's house

even his angry little brother is loose in his hands and tastes delicious and drinks. He never forgets him, even if his brother does not deal with it Broken bones and tendons, something younger brother also always the first to stop, separated, he is alone.

As for how to divide the property, whether he will suffer losses. He also knows that the family's wealth is saved by his parents with big brother and sister. He has no problem with more points and less points. What's more, his father does justice, and his mother will never forget him if he favors his younger brother.

His mother also secretly returned the money his younger brother earned from playing wild animals in the next few years. As a result, the silly boy tried his best to buy things to compensate him. He is not convinced that his mother's practice is not really against the family.

After thinking about it, it's better not to separate the family, brother-in-law and mother-in-law. He has to bear the whole family by himself.

"Mom and Dad, if you don't want to separate the family, our three brothers are also very good together. My sister-in-law and Jiaojiao also have a good conversation. Our family doesn't quarrel with those people in the village all day. Put under your eyes again, you think we will see, suddenly separated, I have no bottom

Zhang's father shook his head, and the second thought he understood. Only when he understood it, he would divide it. "Don't try to persuade him. The village knows all about it. Do you want your parents to eat what they said? How can I be a man. Look at your uncle's house. Your cousins have been separated for a long time, which has not affected their feelings. If something happens, your uncle will come out to help. "

"Don't say it. Your father will not change it if he decides. The foundation of the second and the fifth has also been approved, right next to it. It's close to you. If you have something to say, you can hear it. Besides, your children are also playing slowly. It's up to you to score early and late. Let's talk about the building of the house. I and your father mean to give you 150, bluestone, tile and wood, which are all agreed with others. When you go back to order, you can see how the yard is going to be built, so that you have a good idea. Go back and talk to your daughter-in-law. In the evening, your father went to your uncle's and uncle's house and told him how many people could help him build them before winter. You may as well move in as soon as spring begins. "

Zhang's father nodded and agreed with his mother, "what your mother said is what I mean. This house is for the eldest son. We live with the eldest son just like the old people in the village. I think 150 yuan is enough for such a big yard. The main reason is that there is no time. Otherwise, it will cost some tiles and labor money to make stone by oneself. According to the standard of 150 yuan, go back and discuss with your daughter-in-law. If you want to build a good one, you can't subsidize yourself. If you have more, you don't have to return it. I'll find your uncle and them in the evening. Try to build it before winter, otherwise we will have no time to be busy after spring. "

Three brothers also have no opinion, their father decided, also need not persuade, stubborn. The eldest son, not to mention, is the eldest son. He has long known that he lives with his parents in his old house.

Zhang Guoqing, he still wants to separate his family. Many of his living habits and personal hobbies are different. It's better to split up early. Just like his father said that the separation of brothers or brothers, from the close, a cry to hear. He had to talk to his father about the Zhou family, but now it seems that we should give the old people some time to rest. Separation is not a pleasant topic, looking at the children in front of the split apart, each has its own small home, far away from their parents. No matter how enlightened they are, their parents will inevitably think more and feel sad.
