An earthquake caused Jiang Shanshan's originally well-off family of three to transmigrate to the impoverished 1970s.
On the left was their son crying for food in her arms, and on the righ...
"Grandma, what are you talking about? We are not sad, not at all. So many years have passed, and we have long been accustomed to not having the word mom. It is enough for us to have you by our side." Amu walked to his grandmother, took her other hand and said.
Ali secretly wiped away the tears from her eyes and walked up to her brother and grandmother. "Yes, grandma, Ali only wants you and my brother. I don't need anyone else."
From today on, the mother she longed for in her heart had died in her heart, and she no longer needed the word mother in this life.
The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren stayed at the Niu family's place for a while before leaving.
The Niu family was not very excited when the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren left.
In the afternoon, Jiang Shanshan worked with Xu Shike to do some exercises for the whole afternoon, and only then did he feel that the anger in his heart had subsided a little.
The second day of the Lunar New Year is the day when married women return to their parents' home.
Before dawn, Yu Guifang got up to prepare things for her daughter-in-law to take back to her parents' home.
This year can be said to be an unprecedentedly good year for the Niu family.
There is more than enough of everything prepared for the New Year at home.
Take meat for example. The units of my three sons gave them a lot of it, and the table was piled high with melon seeds, snacks and the like.
Thinking about how her daughters-in-law in previous years never brought back any good things from their parents' home because the family was poor, she, as the mother-in-law, felt that she was treating them unfairly.
So, on the second day of the Chinese New Year this year, she prepared things for her daughters-in-law to take back to their parents' home early in the morning.
The family sat together and finished breakfast early. Yu Guifang told the daughters-in-law at the table, "I have prepared everything for you to go back to your parents' home. Have fun there and don't rush back."
Zhang Xiangcao and He Hua looked in the direction that Yu Guifang pointed. When they saw it, the two sisters-in-law were almost scared out of their wits by what they saw on the table.
"Mom, you're not going to take out all the New Year's gifts from our house and ask us to take them back to my parents' home." Zhang Xiangcao swallowed, looked up at Yu Guifang and asked.
Although she wanted to take things from her husband's family back to her parents' home, she never thought of moving all the things from her husband's family back to her parents' home.
She did not forget that she had her husband and son in this house.
Compared to her parents' home, she values her own small family more.
Yu Guifang was amused by her second daughter-in-law's words. "You wishful thinking, how could I possibly let you take everything from our house back to my parents' home? I only took two kilograms of meat, a kilogram of candy, a kilogram of wine, and half a pack of cigarettes."
After hearing what their mother-in-law said, Zhang Xiangcao and He Hua subconsciously swallowed the saliva in their throats.
This was the first time they brought so many things back to their parents' home since they married into the Niu family.
Yu Guifang didn't look at the frightened faces of her two daughters-in-law, but turned to look at the third daughter-in-law, "Shanshan, where is your mother's home? Do you want Shi Ke to accompany you back there?"
Jiang Shanshan, who was drinking porridge, was so frightened when he heard Yu Guifang's words that he almost choked on the porridge in his mouth.
Xu Shike quickly patted her back and said, "Mom, Shanshan's family is gone because of the earthquake."
Yu Guifang was frightened when she heard this and quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, it's my fault. I didn't know. You, don't be sad."
In the past six months, she hasn't seen her third daughter-in-law return to her parents' home. She thought that her third daughter-in-law's parents' home was far away, so she didn't go back.
Now she knew that this was the reason.
