Is genuine sincerity always belittled? Are kindness and gentleness always bullied? Are ugly commoners always mocked? Is unparalleled ...
Chapter 454 My Mother is a Fool (7)
"Where is the fool? Where is the fool? Why do I let you, a child, wash vegetables?" Zhang Gui'er from the village came over with his hands behind his back.
He fell down from a construction site when he was working outside a few years ago and broke his foot. His boss paid a lot of money. He took the money back to the village and built a big house. His life was neither good nor bad, but he was very unruly and often flirted with other women in the village.
Liu Zhanyan also knew about his deeds. He didn't say anything and continued to wash vegetables, making it clear that he didn't want to pay attention to him. Zhang Gui'er didn't take a child seriously. She stood by and watched him for a while, and turned in when he wasn't paying attention.
Hey, I'm so smart. I can see for myself. The fool was sitting by the fire and boiling eggs. What a good opportunity, I can't miss it.
"Fool, come here, let me see if you have grown up." He walked over with a grin on his face, his eyes already wandering around her dishonestly.
Even though the fool is stupid and not well dressed, his face hasn't changed much since he came. He is still as handsome as before. He really regretted it. His mother threatened to die to force him to repair the house, otherwise such a beautiful wife would be his.
Seeing the woman turned her back and didn't look at him, he didn't feel bad. Anyway, she is just a fool. Anyone who sees her can touch her and say a few funny words. She won't complain to Liu Zhanben. As long as you are brave, you can do that once. Thinking of this, he turned his back to look at the child washing vegetables outside the house. The child was staring at him with wide eyes. He is just a seven or eight-year-old child. What does he know? He can be tricked out with a few candies.
"Good boy, uncle Gui will give you candies. Can you go out and play?" He deliberately smiled gently and harmlessly. The embarrassing thing was that he couldn't find any candies after searching in his bag for a long time. Hey, didn't he hide several candies in his bag when he went out for a drink a few days ago? How come they are gone? Ah! I remember! It must be that his mother touched it when she put his clothes in there! His mother would not touch his money, but she would not care about his food.
"Where's the candy?" The boy obviously saw his embarrassment and continued to ask to embarrass him. He gritted his teeth, took out the three yuan from his bag for buying wine, took out three cents from it and handed it to the boy, "Take it and go out to buy candy."
"Uncle Gui has so much money, and you only give me three cents to buy candy?" Liu Zhanyan looked at him with the innocent eyes of a child, making it impossible for him to say no.
"Uncle Gui has to do the rest of the money." Zhang Guier put all the money back into his bag with a shameless face, and deliberately said: "Since you don't care about three cents, forget it, go out and play for a while, I will come to bring you a big bag of candy next time, okay?" In fact, he was cursing in his heart: Liu Zhanben's bastard son, I'm afraid he has never bought three cents of candy since he was a child, and he actually wants more. His money is not blown by the wind, he doesn't give him a penny to see if he wants it.
Although Liu Zhanyan is small, he is very accurate in observing emotions. He now clearly felt Zhang Guier's disdain for him. He shook off the water on the cabbage in his hand and took it into the house. He sat next to the woman, but his eyes were on Zhang Guier. He said in an innocent voice: "Uncle Gui must have come after dinner, so we won't call you. It's time to eat, so go out for a walk by yourself."
There are only him and his mother at home now, and his father is not at home. It always feels weird for Zhang Guier to sit here, not to mention that his eyes are always glancing at his mother, like a pervert as Teacher Wang said, no wonder she doesn't like him.
"Well, it's okay, you guys eat, I'll just sit." Zhang Guier was also thick-skinned, and sat opposite the two of them, his eyes still on the woman. He could see that Liu Zhanben might have gone out early today, leaving the two of them at home. He stretched out his hand, but noticed the look in the boy's eyes and retracted his hand, "Ahem, the soup you cooked is very delicious." His idle chatter and the unnecessary action just now made the atmosphere even more awkward.
The boy noticed the woman's discomfort and stood in front of her without leaving a trace. He wanted to see what he was going to do!
The soup in the pot had already boiled, and the egg shells that the woman casually threw into the fire pit also gave off a burnt smell, but the three of them didn't speak.
Zhang Guier looked at the woman, touching her hand pole, her foot pole, and her nose from time to time. The eye mucus was stuck on her eyes and she didn't wipe it off. The whole person looked extremely wretched.
In the end, the boy broke the vegetable and put it into the pot to break the silence. Because he really couldn't bear it anymore, Zhang Guier's eyes were almost glued to his mother beside him. For the first time, he felt that men were so hateful.
"What are you doing? It's hot...it's burning me to death." When Zhang Gui'er was staring at the woman, his legs were burned by the boiling water. He stood up in a hurry but didn't keep his balance and fell to the ground.
The boy couldn't help laughing, "I told you to peek at my mother." He picked up the tongs and smashed him without hesitation, "You are my elder. I told you to leave but you didn't leave. There are only my mother and I in the room. What are you doing here, a grown man?"
Zhang Gui'er was in the wrong to begin with. Now he understood what he was thinking after hearing what he said. He stood up against the wall and ran away with the help of the pain. Hey, he didn't believe that he would have no chance in the future. No, he would teach the two of them a lesson tonight. He had come up with a brilliant idea. When he ran to the door, he suddenly turned around and looked into the room with a sinister look.
I'm afraid you will know how powerful I am tonight. This is the first time that I, Zhang Gui'er, have suffered a loss.
"Lululu..." The boy was not afraid of him. He ran to the door and made several faces at him. The person ran away, and he inserted the bolt before sitting back on the bench.
"You are so nice." The woman turned her head to look at him, and her silly smile made him feel warm and painful in his heart.
If he was not here today, would the woman be bullied? In fact, the woman also understood?
"Eat quickly. Otherwise, there will be nothing to eat in the evening." He picked up her bowl and chopsticks and put all the eggs and vegetables into the bowl.
"Enough, enough." The woman tried to share some of the eggs and vegetables in the bowl with him, but he ran away with the bowl.
"I just ate them all, you eat quickly." He hugged the bowl tightly. There were only two cold vegetable leaves in the bowl, but when he put them together and put them in his mouth, he felt that they tasted better than anything else. Because he saw the woman eating very deliciously, he felt very satisfied.
I will let you eat more delicious food in the future and live a better life. I will not break my promise. He poured another bucket of water on the little tree in his heart.
What they didn't know was that Zhang Guier, who was kicked out of the house, was now smearing the reputation of the two everywhere.
