Chapter 222: The thought of divorce cannot exist
"Xiaojing, are you used to your work? Your mother couldn't sleep well at night because she was worried about you..."
The person who spoke was Lin Xiaojing's neighbor aunt.
Hearing this, Lin Xiaojing grinned happily, "Really? Auntie, where is my mother?"
She couldn't wait to share the interesting things happening in the factory with her family.
The neighbor pointed to a place not far away and said, "Over there."
Lin Xiaojing got the news, told Lin Tang, and ran away.
The little girl was so excited when she thought that her mother was thinking about her.
Lin Lu saw his daughter coming back from afar and raised his voice.
“Tangtang!!”
Seeing her father waving at her, Lin Tang nodded to the uncles and aunts in the village, then ran towards her father.
There was a thick layer of wheat under my feet, which was a bit slippery but very, very solid.
"Dad, I'm back from vacation." Lin Tang said with a smile.
"I'm glad you're back. Where's your sister-in-law?" Lin Lu asked.
"I'm talking to my eldest brother."
While talking, he was helping out.
Lin Tang and the other two returned home after work, and it was already getting dark.
The wheat in the threshing ground is related to grain delivery and food, and its importance is self-evident.
The members of the brigade worked overtime every day.
Busy working with a fire at night.
Even meals were brought to the threshing ground by the women in the family.
The whole team worked hard for another day and night, and the wheat field was finally clean.
All the wheat was put together in several piles.
Saturday, 4 p.m.
Pack the best wheat into bags and keep it for tax payment.
The food distribution that the group had been waiting for for a long time finally arrived!
"Everyone, please line up and go one family at a time." Lin Fu shouted while standing on the straw stack with a broken loudspeaker.
The villagers all had experience, and as soon as they heard the team leader's words, they immediately lined up in an orderly manner.
Accountant Qian Hua was doing the accounting, Lin Fu was holding the scale, Li Jiancai and He Jun were carrying the scale, and the other two were loading the bucket.
A bunch of them in each household.
Qian Hua wrote the name of the household owner in time.
After the food was distributed, the members of the brigade packed it into large and small bags.
Distributing food is a big event, and all the family members, including the elderly and children, will go out.
The village is very lively.
Soon it was Sun Tieshu's house that was lined up.
Liu Damei helped pack the family's food, making sure not a single grain of wheat was left behind.
After loading, the woman looked at the full bags of food with a smile on her face.
"It's a good harvest. I hope our brigade will have a good harvest every year in the future."
Behind her were Wang Xuemei and her son Shuanzi.
Wang Xuemei's face, which is always stern, rarely shows a smile.
"Yeah, I wish every year could be like this year."
There are always gossips around a widow. Since Li Jiangang passed away, she has become much quieter and only tells Li Xiuli a few words from her heart.
It was because she suddenly spoke that Liu Damei was startled.
However, Liu Damei quickly came to her senses.
"Who would say that? Everyone is looking forward to it."
Li Xiuli, Lin Tang and other people from the second branch lined up behind the Sun family.
Hearing the conversation between Wang Xuemei and Liu Damei, Li Xiuli smiled and interjected.
"It's going to get better! Think about it, isn't this year much better than last year?"
Last year, the grain production was poor, and even after paying the public grain tax, each household received very little grain.
Every year at this time, the villagers lose a lot of weight.
Liu Damei saw that the people from the second branch of the Lin family not only did not lose weight, but also looked more energetic than usual, as if they were soaked in acid water.
"Even if the harvest isn't good next year, Sister Xiuli still has two workers at home, so she doesn't have to worry about anything. I'm so envious."
Li Xiuli was stunned, rolled her eyes, and retorted fiercely.
"I'm lucky. My daughter is promising and my son is filial. Some of those who support their brothers can't even envy me."
The words were very sharp, and he didn't give Liu Damei any face.
During this period, Tangtang bought a radio for her father, which made some people in the team jealous.
I've never heard any sarcastic remarks.
Among them, Liu Damei and Wu Chunhua are the best.
They usually just talk about it, and Li Xiuli endures it as much as she can.
But she couldn't stand being sour in front of Tangtang.
Lin Tang frowned in surprise and asked Zhou Mei beside him in a low voice.
"Second sister-in-law, what is Aunt Liu dissatisfied with again?"
Zhou Mei curled her lips in a sarcastic tone.
"Our Lin family has two more workers and a radio at home, which may bother some of the jealous people in the village."
"Don't worry about it. I have my mother and I here. If anyone dares to say that, I won't let her off."
She didn't tell her sister-in-law about the quarrels with the gossips in the village.
Lin Tang understood that his family was developing too fast and people were jealous of him.
Ouch!!
Small scale.
Why are you always staring at others?
"Second sister-in-law, don't bother with them. Let them say whatever they want. It won't affect us in any way." Lin Tang said indifferently.
Some people can only talk sourly to find a sense of existence.
Zhou Mei agreed, "I'll listen to you."
She muttered in her heart that if someone extended their face to her, she would not be stingy.
Liu Damei was criticized and looked very unhappy.
In fact, when she saw Lin Tang there, she regretted speaking too quickly.
After all, this little girl is one of the most capable people in the entire brigade, and it would be of no benefit to offend her.
Sun Tieshu moved the sacks of grain onto the cart.
Looking back, I saw that Liu Damei was teasing the people from the second branch of the Lin family again.
He almost vomited blood.
Sun Tieshu wiped his face helplessly and forced a smile.
"...I'm sorry, I'll take my elder sister away now."
Then he grabbed Liu Damei and left everyone's sight.
Li Xiuli saw this familiar scene and shook her head, "...What a pity."
It's a pity that she didn't say anything.
Everyone present knew that she was talking about Sun Tieshu, what a pity.
Lin Tang didn't know everything about the village. After hearing what Li's mother said, he asked in confusion, "Mom, what's a pity?"
As the village's gossip queen, Zhou Mei knows more gossip than Li Xiuli.
Seeing that his sister-in-law was curious, he quickly pulled Lin Tang over and shared what he knew.
"What mother said is that it's a pity that Sun Tieshu married Liu Damei, a brother-supporting demon!"
"You don't often go to the village, so you don't know how much Liu Damei has taken from the Sun family to give to her parents."
"During the famine two years ago, Liu Damei ignored her children and gave all the food to her parents, nearly starving them to death."
"Thanks to the kindness of the people in our village, one family lent us some food for emergency use, which saved the lives of the Sun family. Otherwise, the Sun family would have been broken up long ago."
What Zhou Mei didn't say was that Liu Damei was almost sent back to her parents' home.
It was only after Liu Damei knelt on the ground, crying and regretting, and hit her head, that she reluctantly stayed in the Sun family.
After listening to it, Lin Tang felt that his worldview was shattered.
"Uncle Sun, have you ever thought about divorce?"
She hadn't been in the village for long and had indeed never heard of Liu Damei.
When I heard about it suddenly, I thought it was outrageous!
Li Xiuli didn't expect her daughter to say such bold words, and her face changed slightly.
"How can you get divorced so easily? If you do, the man will be too old to marry again, and the woman will be criticized. Who would dare to divorce?"
Having said that, she looked at Lin Tang seriously and warned, "Don't even think about divorce!"
