Chapter 466 Transformation

"Your mother gave your brothers a good wife, why?"

Man Bao: "Why?"

"Because your mother suffered a lot in the past."

Man Bao: I always feel that my uncle is mocking her father, but she has no real evidence.

"When your mother first got married, what did your father have other than a face?" Aunt Lai scolded: "Your grandfather is not good, and your grandma is not good either, one, following your grandma to raise lazy bones , Did you see the Leap Child's house?"

Aunt Lai said: "Back then, your family was similar to that of a leper, and the fields in the village were about to be closed. Only then did your grandparents slowly start spring planting, and they were always three steps behind in their work, and they began to fertilize and pull weeds. , they planted the seedlings..."

The onlookers and a group of children from the old Zhou family were stunned. God, is this really the old Zhou family?

"Your grandma remembers that your grandfather's family gave a high dowry gift, and your mother was scolded as soon as she entered the door. It was very sad in those days." Aunt Lai couldn't help sighing, "So Man Bao, you will choose someone else in the future. , but you have to widen your eyes, don't follow your mother's way."

Man Bao nodded fiercely. Although there would be hesitation and heartache between her father and mother, she still decided to occupy her mother's side a little bit more.

Ever since she was a child, although Qian never said how her illness came about, the adults outside said that her mother was tired.

Even Wu Lang still had some impressions, but he only knew that his mother worked quickly and neatly. He didn't know that his mother had suffered so much when she was younger.

These things, it is estimated that Zhou Dalang, Zhou Xi, Tuesday and Wednesday still have some memories.

According to Aunt Lai, it was not only the Qian family who suffered, Zhou Dalang was also very pitiful when he was a child.

At that time, Zhou Jin was still very lazy. When he went to work in the fields, he could find an excuse to run home three or two times in a morning, and all his time was wasted on the road.

And Grandpa Zhou said that he was not getting better from his illness, while Mrs Zhang was pregnant with Zhou Yin and treated her belly like a pimple, not even going out of the house, let alone helping Mrs Qian.

So Qian Shi had a big belly and took Zhou Dalang down to the ground.

In order to prevent the child from running around, she tied a rope around Zhou Dalang's waist and tied him to a tree on the ground, so that she could see the child as soon as she looked up.

Aunt Lai sighed, "There were a lot of mosquitoes in the field at that time, your mother wrapped your elder brother's hands and feet, but the forehead and face were leaking, and the little palm, she came up to take a look after finishing her work, The child was bitten by insects hard..."

Man Bao and the others opened their mouths wide.

"Your mother cried all the way back to her mother's house with your eldest brother behind her back, and left the child at her mother's house." At that time, auntie came to accompany Qian's family back. Later, as soon as the spring planting was over, Uncle Qian took his two younger brothers with him. After beating Zhou Jin and taking his sister home for more than ten days, Grandpa Zhou personally begged him to go to his in-laws before taking him back.

But Qian's situation was only slightly better, until Zhang gave birth to Zhou Yin but had no milk.

Zhou Yin was sent to Qian's side.

Maybe it's the old man, maybe it's because they can give birth to two sons to the old Zhou family that has been passed down for two generations, so Grandpa Zhou and Zhang's special favor on Zhou Yin, even more than when Zhou Jingang was born.

At that time, Zhou Xi had been born for three months, Qian Shi had been working in the field for a long time, and she wanted to wean the child. As a result, because of Zhou Yin, she could not only spend most of her free time at home to take care of the child, but also Grandpa Zhou and Zhang Shi also Give her meat and eggs as if you don't want money...

What is the old Zhou family's rule that men go to fetch water?

It was all decided by Qian's own. For three years after she married, she has always chosen the water of the old Zhou family. The other three adults of the old Zhou family would rather not wash their faces than carry water.

But just because Zhou Yin woke up and couldn't find Qian, he cried like he was dying, and then Zhou Jin called his father to beat him out, and went to Quankou to pick up the first bucket of water for his daughter-in-law.

Then there was the first bucket, and then there was the second bucket. Later, Qian stopped fetching water.

Old Zhou Tou picked water for ten years, and when Zhou Dalang was thirteen years old, he immediately handed over the burden to him.

The old Zhou head asked Qian to train him, but it was too hard. He wanted to come to my aunt and tell her that if she didn't look at her face before and just chose a diligent person, there would be so many things in the future.

"Zhou Yin, that's a child who is very fond of others," Aunt Lai's eyes fell on Man Bao's face, and she sighed faintly: "Your mother often said that he is her little lucky star."

Isn't it a little lucky star? Since Zhou Yin was born, Qian's life has gradually improved. When Zhou Yin was three years old, Grandpa Zhou and Zhang's family even handed over the old Zhou family to Qian's.

Even when Zhou Jin confronted Qian, he could only shrink his neck.

Zhou Yin has always been brought up by the Qian family, and he obviously prefers his sister-in-law to the Zhang family who is always sick or loses his temper.

So even during the Chinese New Year, he didn't want to go back to Zhang's house with Mrs. Zhang, but rolled around and wanted to go back to Qian's house with Mrs. Qian.

When he was just two years old, when he was learning to speak, he would always call Qian Shi's mother bald. This problem didn't change until he was five years old.

From this, we can see how good his relationship with the Qian family is. Even the Qian family likes his sister's brother-in-law very much, so the Zhang family shouted that the Qian family abused the young son left by his mother-in-law and sold the young son for money. Qili Village and even Qianjia Village were treated like a joke.

Especially in Qili Village, who doesn't know who.

Aunt Lai reached out and took Man Bao's little hand, and said in a meaningful way, "Zhou Yin sold himself back then. After your mother found out, she almost fainted."

Uncle Lai also sighed and said longly: "It was difficult back then. Several people in our village starved to death."

"Yeah, when your mother soaked a piece of cake and gave it to the family, she tied her stomach with a rope to drink water. Your uncle ran out because he couldn't bear it, but he really found it for him. a way to live."

Aunt Lai squeezed Manbao's hand tightly and said, "He not only brought back a bag of food for your old Zhou family, but also found a job for the young men in the village. We hired people from the village to carry the cloth for them, and later introduced everyone to another steward in the county. The people in our village survived on the rations saved by the people who worked hard and did not starve to death. people."

Aunt Lai said with a sneer: "The Zhang family came to the door to force your parents to take out the food because they took hold of Zhou Yin's prostitution, and it was your uncle's life in exchange for it, how could your parents give it to you? , the two families fought, and they stole something."

"And then what?"

"Later?" Aunt Lai laughed, "Later, your uncle took your cousins ​​and your brothers to the Zhang's house. After five or six years of work, the two of you didn't move around. This time The fight is estimated to be cold for another five or six years."

She smiled and said: "Who knows how long someone at this age will live? When your Zhang family's two cousins ​​die, this relative will be able to fade away, and it doesn't matter if they leave or not."
