Chapter 39: A ghost fell down
Chapter 39 A ghost fell down
When Shen Meng brought Xiao Kai into the house, Xifeng was feeding Wang Lianhua porridge. The dim kerosene lamp shone on the faces of the two people, making their features unclear.
"Sister-in-law Meng is here, come in quickly." Xifeng put down the bowl in his hand, called Shen Meng to come in, and then ran out and poured a bowl of warm water.
"Sister-in-law, please sit down. There is no hot water bottle in my second sister-in-law's room. This is poured from my room. You can drink some. The temperature is just right!"
"No, I'm not busy. I just came over to see Sister-in-law Lianhua. It's my fault. I didn't think carefully and made Sister-in-law Lianhua suffer."
Wang Lianhua was leaning on the kang cabinet, wearing a turban on her head, and her face was covered in colorful patches, which made her look a little scary.
"Sister, what are you talking about? You are kind-hearted. You gave Daqing Erqing such good food to eat. You also brought some to me and Xifeng. I have heard from the children that they still eat dumplings filled with white flour and meat filling. Sister, you are so willing to give up. How could you be so generous if you left this in someone else's house?" Wang Lianhua said with a sigh, her body was throbbing with pain and she was weak to speak.
Xifeng kept nodding aside. She also ate a lot of dumplings yesterday. They tasted very good. She has never eaten such delicious dumplings in her whole life. They looked like two-faced noodles, but she could eat them. , more white flour and less stick noodles.
"I heard that your mother-in-law and your sister-in-law compensated you three yuan. You have to hide this money and don't turn around and leave it for you."
"Hey, sister, don't worry, I hid it well. My mother-in-law is a tough guy. It's all thanks to you that I got her hair plucked this time. Otherwise, my beating would have been in vain."
When Wang Lianhua said this, her nose twitched slightly and she cried loudly.
Shen Meng shook his head and took out the things in the basket.
"This is half a pound of brown sugar and a pound of chicken cake. I originally wanted to get the eggs, but I was afraid that your second wife would use the eggs to make a raft and cause trouble. I asked someone to buy this before. You can hide it and eat it."
"That's not okay, sister. I've already eaten your dumplings. I want so many things from you, but I don't want to meet you. Such precious things are hard to buy, so you can't waste them on me."
Shen Meng stuffed something into Wang Lianhua's hand and held her hand tightly.
"Don't shirk it. I used to be indifferent. I have several children who have been taken care of by you. I am grateful in my heart. After all, we are also cousins and sisters-in-law. We should visit each other often in the future!"
Wang Lianhua wanted to reject Shen Meng, but Xifeng smiled and said, "Second sister-in-law, just take it. This is what Sister-in-law Meng wants, and what she said is right. We are also sisters-in-law, and we should come here often from now on." "
Both people said this, and Wang Lianhua couldn't say anything else. She took out three chicken cakes in front of the two people, gave half to each of the children, and let Xifeng lock the rest in the kang cabinet. .
"That's right, but I still have something to say. If Sister-in-law Lianhua and Xifeng think what I said is wrong, just pretend that I haven't said it before."
"I just said that we are sisters, why are you being so polite again? Xiaomeng just says what she has to say, and we are listening!" I had never interacted with Chen Meng in detail before, but from the time I kowtow to Chen Meng, I have become much kinder and more humane. Quite a few, they no longer embarrass others when speaking, and they are always informed and courteous. If you make friends with such people, you will definitely gain lifelong friendship.
"Then let me tell you straight, Sister-in-law Lianhua, the second aunt is not a good person to be with. You two are daughter-in-laws and you know it in your heart, but Zhao Jingui can get along well with her, except that they are from the same place. In addition, Zhao Jingui can stand up for himself. Xifeng is better than you. Sister-in-law, Daqing and Erqing are both good children. They are boys. The Lu family will not make things difficult for them. But Yaoyao is a girl. She is today They were very frightened. Sister-in-law, this is not a matter of dumplings. They know in their hearts that you have not hidden food or money. They see that you are easy to bully. If you still have this temper, it will affect Yaoyao's life. "
Shen Meng's words made Xifeng and Wang Lianhua stunned. The two of them looked at Yaoyao who was sitting aside watching Xiaokai and Daqing Erqing play. It seemed that Yaoyao had been depressed since the trouble in the morning. , there was no expression on his face, and he didn’t eat much at lunch.
Wang Lianhua was filled with regret. Many people came to see her this afternoon. Xifeng was busy greeting people and taking care of her. Neither of them noticed Yaoyao's condition.
"Thanks for your reminder, I didn't even pay attention. Hey, it's so late today. Why hasn't the child's father come back yet? If he comes back, he can..."
"What else can I do? Can you help you take care of the child? Second sister-in-law, you were beaten like this today, are you still awake? No wonder people always talk about what the authorities are confused and the beholder is clear. Sister-in-law Renmeng is right, why do you let you support me?" I'm stunned, that's because your man is unreliable. The second brother is running around every day, and he doesn't know what's going on all day long. He's just busy. Let me tell you, if you dare to give the second brother the food given by Sister Meng, I will I don’t care about you.”
Wang Lianhua was a little embarrassed and kept her spirits up without saying anything. Shen Meng was almost done. The children had to take a bath when they returned home. Xie Jinghao was still taking the children to make clothes, so she couldn't stay too long.
"Okay, I'll get back to you. Oh, by the way, this is the safflower oil sent by Zhenping from southern Yunnan. Xifeng, please go back and rub it with Sister-in-law Lianhua to activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis."
"Hey, thank you, Sister-in-law Meng, I won't send you off. When my second sister-in-law feels better and can get out of bed, we will go play with you together!"
"Okay, come back!"
After dreaming again, Xifeng returned to the house with safflower oil in hand. Wang Lianhua was lying on the bed with a faraway look, not knowing what she was thinking.
Xifeng sighed, put the safflower oil on the Kang table, and said quietly: "I really didn't expect that my sister-in-law can live so soberly now. In the past, she was either busy trying to please the third aunt, or busy trying to please those Sisters Hu. She is a member of the military, but actually she is not the old mother that the Lu family married to take care of their children. It is different now. She gets along well with the children. From now on, Mingyang and the others will treat her as their own mother. She is stunned. She will definitely live in the future. Live a better life, second sister-in-law, you see, Sister-in-law Meng can live a better life, you have to think about yourself and the children. "
Wang Lianhua didn't say anything, her heart was full of mixed feelings, and she didn't know what to do for a while.
Shen Meng took Lu Mingkai home. It was already getting dark. The little guy was a little scared and clung to his mother.
Suddenly he saw a black shadow falling to the ground. He froze suddenly and tugged on Shen Meng's clothes with a trembling voice.
"Mom, a ghost fell down, did you see it?"
Shen Meng was so excited by what the little guy said that she almost dragged her to hide in the space. She was actually a little scared, especially on this country road, there were no street lights and the moonlight was not very bright. On the trees on both sides of the road, the yellow leaves were rustling. The rustling and the occasional chirping of insects and birds made her feel a little nervous. After Lu Mingkai reminded her, she also saw the "ghost" in the little guy's mouth.
