" Su Wan, bring Mengmeng first to the yard. We have to clean the house since Chinese New Year is almost here. We need to be careful not to blow dust into Mengmeng's eyes."
How could Su Wan let her mother-in-law clean by herself? This cleaning job looks easy, but anyone who has done it knows that doing housework is the most tiring. She puts Mengmeng in the small wooden car. She called Dawa and Erwa and said, "Here, I will give each of you a piece of candy. You push your sister out to play but you are not allowed to go to dangerous places."
As soon as the two children pushed the car into the corridor, they saw Brother Rui walking in from outside. Su Wan waved at him and said, "Brother Rui is here too, then the three of you go together, Brother Rui, I'll give you a candy too."
"Do you have any candy for my sister? Give it to my sister first." Brother Rui raised his smiling face, and the smile was particularly painful.
Su Wan rubbed his little head and said, "Your sister already ate it. This is for you. Go and play together outside."
The three little boys pushed the wooden cart out of the door, and Hu Zi followed. Huzi walked in front of the cart to clear the way. Its size is now a little bigger, like a big walking ball of fur. Although its eyes are sometimes fierce, its orange fluff makes it look very soft, so the little dolls in the village are Not afraid of it, seeing them walking in the village, the little dolls also ran out.
They soon discovered that the Feng family's dolls all had candy, even Brother Rui had them, and they were all fruit candies of various colors. Seeing the cellophane in their hands, the little dolls were drooling with admiration.
The twins are also here, they look exactly the same. Outsiders can't tell them apart, but Dawa can easily recognize that the one with the smart eyes is Xiaonan and the one standing there foolishly is Xiaobei. Dawa raised his chin and said, "Xiaonan, Xiaobei, you also have candy to eat, and the milk said that you should go to her and get it."
Xiaonan and Xiaobei rushed into the uncle's house cheering. After a while, Wuwa got the news and went in too. After they came out, everyone had candy in their mouths, and they rubbed the candy paper so loudly that everyone in the village knew about it. The little dolls are so envious that their eyes are red, why are they not the grandsons of the old Feng family? Otherwise, they also have candy to eat. They have never even eaten brown sugar when growing up, let alone this beautiful fruit candy, it must be very, very, very delicious.
They couldn't eat candy, and they were obsessed with the candy wrapper. A little doll who usually played well with them said, "Brother Xiaodong, can you show me that candy wrapper? Just take a look."
"Do you want to see this?" The big baby took out the rainbow-colored candy wrapper from his pocket, and the little dolls stopped talking, just stared at the candy wrapper with wide eyes, the envy in those eyes couldn't stop it from coming to life.
Dawa rolled his eyes, pointed to the beach and said, "I want to string a shell necklace for my sister. Whoever finds the most and most beautiful shells for me, I will give him this candy wrapper, how about it?"
"I have one too." "I have one too." Several other little boys also took out candy wrappers.
The dolls in the village were so happy that they almost lost their breath. Picking up shells is nothing, they can pick up a hundred or eighty shells by themselves, but the candy wrappers are different. Besides the Feng family, who has candy wrappers in the village? Without being urged, they rushed to the beach in a swarm, burying their heads in search of shells.
Dawa also pushed Mengmeng to the beach slowly, Huzi and Mengmeng were very excited when they got here, Huzi had already run out to have fun, and Mengmeng was sitting in the car eagerly, tooting up to Dawa, stretched out her hand and said, "Hug."
Dawa is particularly embarrassed, he is only seven years old now. How can he hold the chubby cute one year old?
"Sister, brother can't hold you, how about brother pushing you away?" Dawa said, scratching the back of his head.
Little Mengmeng made a pouty mouth, it's so long that you could hang an oil bottle. She stretched out her hand and said, "Hug, hug."
The brothers didn't know what to do. Hu Zi suddenly ran back from the beach. It put two front paws on the bracket of the wooden cart, and held Mengmeng's collar in its mouth, and took her out of the wooden cart. He took Mengmeng out, put her firmly on the beach, and it ran out to play on its own.
Mengmeng crawled quickly, using her hands and feet together like a small crab, and crawling towards the beach, several brothers hurriedly chased after her, when her little hands were about to touch the sea, Mengmeng was pulled back.
Dawa squatted in front of her and said very seriously: "Mom said you can't go to dangerous places, the sea is dangerous, we can't go."
But Mengmeng just wanted to go to the sea. She thought the sea water was very interesting. She turned around and wanted to continue to climb to the seaside, but was pulled back by her brothers.
"No, I have to get my sister back into the car, otherwise she will be disobedient." Dawa dared not let Mengmeng run into the sea. Although he was young, he knew the dangers of the sea, but now that Mengmeng wants to come out, what should I do? Get her back?
When he saw Huzi playing with sand on the beach, he quickly sent Erwa to say, "Go and pull Huzi over and let Huzi take her sister back."
Erwa turned around and ran away, and ran in front of Huzi in one breath, but he was talking, pulling and pulling, Huzi just didn't move, making Erwa so anxious that he was about to cry.
Mengmeng was surrounded by several brothers and kept her from escaping. The brothers were so anxious to hold her down. She was dressed like a small ball and lay on the beach with all fours upside down. Up, like a little tortoise whose shell had been turned over, and babbled in a panic.
Brother Rui ran out and pushed the small wooden cart over, and said, "Hold Mengmeng over, and when she gets in the car, let's turn the car over."
"Yes, Xiaonan and Xiaobei, you two hold her feet. Wuwa, you hold your sister's waist, I hold her head, and carry her to the car." Several brothers worked together to lift Mengmeng from the beach and transport it to the side of the small wooden cart. They moved Mengmeng into the car in a hurry, made sure she was seated in it, and then carefully turned the car over, the boys were sweating profusely.
Mengmeng was still puffed up and unhappy at first, and kept saying that her brothers were "bad". When her brothers showed her the beautiful shells they picked up to play with, her big round eyes were suddenly attracted to the shells. Those eyes are bright and it's obvious that she liked it very much.
After coaxing Mengmeng, Dawa quickly exchanged the shells with the wrappers to the other children and pushed Mengmeng back to the village. He dared not to let her get closer to the beach fearing that she would want to go to the sea again.
In the afternoon, Madam Feng and Su Wan finished cleaning the house and quickly took out the fabrics they bought a few days ago. They plan to make the clothes while they are free.
Mengmeng just sat on the cot, tore out a box of cloth ends to play with, threw it all over the bed, and giggled and crawled all over the bed. Madam Feng and Su Wan didn't care about her. A little dress was ready in no time.
"Mengmeng come here, grandma will try it on for you." Madam Feng put the small clothes on Mengmeng's body for comparison, teasing her and said, "This is Mengmeng's new clothes for Chinese New Year, do you like it? "
"Huanhuan." Mengmeng didn't speak in a series, and could only jump out with two words at most, and it was often repeated.
But Mrs. Feng felt relieved after hearing this. She felt that this little granddaughter had been very creative since she was a child. Once, she accidentally wrapped a torn diaper around her, and she cried as soon as she put it on. , you have to force someone to take the diaper off.
She took off the coat on Mengmeng's body, put on the new clothes for her, and praised her first: "Our Mengmeng is so pretty and when you put on the new clothes made by grandma, you look just like the one in the Mazu temple. Like the little fairy children, our Mengmeng is so cute and adorable. So grandma will buy you a new pair of shoes and embroider a tiger for you later, okay?"
"Okay, Ka Ka Ka..." Mengmeng smiled as if she could understand.
Su Wan sewed the last stitch on the little pants in her hand, and cut off the thread with her teeth: "Mom, the pants are ready, you give to Mengmeng..."
"Mom, what are you doing?" Chen Hongmei waited next door for a whole morning, and finally waited until the uncle's house was quiet, and then ran over to visit. It's almost New Year's Day, the uncle's house has so much meat, her mother-in-law might give it to her. A few pieces of them, so that her family can have a fat year, so Chen Hongmei came running.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered the door, she saw her mother-in-law and her sister-in-law making clothes, and the pieces of army green fabric were casually placed on the edge of the bed. Crawling around, even the cloth head was a good material she had never seen before. This scene hurt Chen Hongmei's eyes and made the smile on her face fade away.
"Oh, the third one is here, what's the matter?" Madam Feng only looked up at her, then lowered her head and continued her needlework. She has been obedient for a long time since she confronted the third family face to face last time, so what else is she doing here?
Of course, Chen Hongmei couldn't say that she was jealous, she just forced a smile and said, "I heard that Mom wants to clean up? I'll come and see if I can help."
The old lady Feng became tired and had a crooked smile. The third family lived next door. If you really want to help, why do you have to wait until now? Hmph, trying to sound nice but really have ulterior motives. You can't really change this shallow woman.
She didn't even raise her head and said, "You're late, we already finished everything here hours ago. You should go back to your home and clean yours instead."
Chen Hongmei felt a little guilty for some reason. Although she pretended that she was not at home all morning, she felt that her mother-in-law must have seen through her. Even Su Wan lowered her head and couldn't see her expression. She also thought that this sister-in-law was laughing at her. .
She was embarrassed, and her flesh lost her shadow. She went back to her house embarrassedly, but the more she thought about it, the more she felt aggrieved. It's okay if this mother-in-law treats her badly. Her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are natural enemies, but why should her sister in law look down on her? Isn't she just a primary school teacher, what's so great about that?
I'm better than her because I have a father, a mother, and a family. Does she think I didn't know whether her sister-in-law has a family? They haven't seen each other for so many years. Why is her mother-in-law so good to her?
Chen Hongmei's heart seemed to be on fire, it burned her heart and lungs, and when her man came back, she immediately complained in front of him: "You said that the uncle's harvest is not good this year. I just went to his house, and the fabric was piled up all over the bed, that means the harvest is good. They also bought so many fruit candies, and they only gave Wuwa & Liuwa so little. Are they treating them like beggars?"
Feng Laosan was so annoyed. This woman talks about these trivial things in front of him every day. Why does she have so much free time?
He rolled his eyes and said, "Are you finished? Do you think I don't know how you sent Wuwa last time to beg for meat? If you're not ashamed of your action, well I am."
Chen Hongmei wanted to scream at him. But her mother-in-law was next door, so she didn't dare to shout. She just suppressed her anger and said, "Who am I doing it for? The uncle's family won't take care of you even if there is a good thing, you stupid. You kept speaking for them."
Feng Laosan looked at her like a fool. He twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "You are talking nonsense, my elder brother has taken care of me the most since I was a child."
Chen Hongmei jumped up and pressed her fingers on his chest and said, "Why can't you be the village chief? Why can't you get meat for our family? What can you do hu? None."
Feng Laosan was poked by her and stepped back. Does he think this woman is crazy? "What are you talking about? Do you think that whoever wants to be the village chief can be the village chief? That needs to be literate."
Chen Hongmei seemed to have grasped the handle, and said with a smug smile: "You also said that your parents are not partial, so among you three brothers, they only let the eldest go to junior high school, but they don't let you go?"
Feng Laosan couldn't help but want to laugh, "That's because I don't want to go, what's the matter with my parents sending my elder brother to school?"
Chen Hongmei was so angry that her head was about to explode, and she shouted in a shrill voice: "Feng Laosan, let me tell you, no matter how good your brothers are, they have already got married and separated. How old are you?"
"You, you, you say one more sentence, be careful or I will kill you." I don't know where this sentence hit the third Feng. He suddenly raised his hand, he held it high. In the end, the slap didn't come down, but he turned around and left a sentence: "I can't talk to you bitch, I'm going to the field."
Feng Laosan walked out of the village and came to squat on the reef stall by the sea. He remembered what his daughter-in-law had just said, and he was in a mess. He was the youngest son, and it was obvious that his mother loved him the most before, so why did he become like this?
