Chapter 47 Lala Vine 4
While Liu Guizhi was chopping pig food, Liu Zhaodi started complaining, "Why are we still chopping? The pig is dying! Oh, it's just unfortunate. We finally managed to raise a pig, and now it's dead. I told little Dongni yesterday that we could kill the pig during the New Year and eat the meat. You were so greedy. Now look, the pig has swine fever. Where can we eat meat?"
As she spoke, she began to wipe away her tears, saying with despair and helplessness, "It's okay if we can't eat meat, but I hope we don't get this swine fever. If we do, my whole family will suffer, and we might even die!"
Chen Hongying was washing the pot when she heard this and sneered, "Stop crying! What's the point? They killed their pigs and you're going to compensate them just because you cry? I tell you, this person is unlucky. Nie Laosan's family is not stupid. If they don't want her, then we should take her, right? If she comes over, she will bring disaster to the whole family!"
At this time, Miao Xiujiu was not at home. She went to the pigpen to look after the pigs. Only Liu Guizhi and Fubao Gu Shengtian were left. Even though Liu Guizhi was a person of clay, she was still very angry when she heard this.
Her face flushed red. She put down the knife she was using to chop pig food, stood up, pointed at Chen Hongying and Liu Zhaodi, and looked very angry, mumbling something.
Liu Zhaodi was usually a coward, but now that Miao Xiuju was gone, she was no longer a coward. She looked at Liu Guizhi and sneered, "What are you talking about? Who can understand you? What can a mute say?"
Just as she finished speaking, a few men came back from their private plots carrying hoes. Gu Weijun's face fell when he heard this: "What are you talking about? What are you talking about? She's your sister-in-law, that's how you talk to her!"
He strode over and slapped Liu Zhaodi in the face.
Suddenly, Liu Zhaodi was stunned and everyone around her was dumbfounded.
In the Gu family, there has never been a case of a man beating a woman. The men in the Gu family are honest and never beat women.
Liu Zhaodi was even more shocked: "You, you hit me?"
Gu Weijun gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, I will beat you. Who told you to talk like that?"
As he spoke, his voice trembled: "Fourth brother's wife can't speak, and you're mad at her like this? You don't expose people's shortcomings, you don't hit people in the face, you're just a sister-in-law, and you talk like this? You talk like this?"
Gu Weijun is a rough man and doesn't talk about so many big principles. He is not good at speaking and his hands are shaking with anger. He can only say the same thing over and over again: "Why do you talk like this?"
Shen Hongying was also stunned by the situation. She was about to step forward to offer some words of advice, but she saw her husband staring at her with a look of condemnation and disappointment. She was immediately startled and quickly said, "I, I have to go back and pack up the clothes I just washed..."
As he said that, he hurried back to the house in two steps and slammed the door shut.
Liu Zhaodi was beaten, but Shen Hongying didn't want to be beaten!
Gu Weiguo took a look, snorted, threw down his hoe, and went into the house with a clang.
Then outside, the couple could be heard making a fuss.
Liu Zhaodi felt wronged and sad. She looked at her man in disbelief: "You hit me, you hit me, you hit me for her, Liu Guizhi!"
After hearing this, Gu Weijun almost slapped her again.
Is this because Liu Guizhi beat you?
Liu Guizhi is my brother's sister-in-law. As her sister-in-law, how can you speak to her like that?
Gu Weidong was also embarrassed when he saw this situation. He felt sorry for his wife, but his brother had already scolded his sister-in-law, so he couldn't say anything else.
As for Liu Guizhi, she is usually a gentle person, but when she heard what Chen Hongying and Liu Zhaodi said about Fubao, she was really angry. Even a clay figure has a temper, and the better the temper of a person, the more angry they will be.
She stared at Liu Guizhi with gritted teeth, picked up the knife, and with a bang, chopped it directly on the chopping board.
The vegetable mound was a big tree stump, very hard. But after being cut, it began to shake and almost broke.
Liu Zhaodi shuddered with fear. Shen Hongying, who was hiding in the house and being scolded by Gu Weiguo, happened to see this scene and also shrank her shoulders.
What’s going on? Liu Guizhi is so powerful?
Just then, Miao Xiuju entered the house. Seeing the family in such a mess, she smiled instead of being angry. "Go do what you need to do. Reflect on yourself after being beaten. Don't make trouble for me! As for the swine fever, whoever believes it can believe it. If they believe it, go and worry about it. Don't shout about it everywhere. It makes me sick!"
In a word, the family went back to their rooms and dispersed.
After returning to the house, Liu Guizhi was still angry. She pursed her lips and her face was pale. No matter how Gu Weidong tried to persuade her, it was useless.
People who are usually soft-tempered don’t get angry easily, but once they get angry, no one can persuade them.
She hugged Fubao tightly, her eyes wide open, and she murmured coaxing sounds.
Fubao looked up at Liu Guizhi in her arms, but saw tears in her eyes, tears filled with guilt and reluctance.
Fubao's heart suddenly ached.
My mother is a good-tempered person. Usually, she doesn't care what anyone says to her. But now she is angry. She is so angry that she is chopping a wooden block with a kitchen knife.
Why? Because Shen Hongying and Liu Guizhi told about him?
Mother is feeling sorry for herself.
Fubao bit her lip and wanted to cry, but she tried her best to hold it back. She hugged Liu Guizhi's neck and said softly, "Mom, don't be angry. Let them say whatever they want. Anyway, grandma knows I'm not her, you and dad don't believe it, and my brothers don't believe it either. Isn't that enough? I don't care what others say about me. Besides, we have found a way. Our pigs won't die. They will understand soon and won't say anything about me then."
Liu Guizhi looked at Fubao's little lips trembling as if he was about to cry, but he was trying hard to hold it back, biting it tightly with his little teeth, holding it back and trying hard to comfort himself, and suddenly burst into tears.
She felt useless.
She was born mute and cannot speak. She adopted Fubao and became her mother but she could not protect her. Others scolded her and talked behind her back, but she could not say a word in front of them!
Ever since Fubao came to the Gu family, she has brought them all sorts of benefits, working hard every day up the mountain to chop wood and collect things. She's only six years old, and yet someone as young as her has to talk about her behind her back and work so hard every day!
Liu Guizhi hugged her little girl distressedly, buried her face in Fubao's hair, and sobbed loudly: "Wuwuwuwu, baby, wuwuwuwuwuwu, baby..."
Listening to Liu Guizhi crying like this, Fubao felt distressed, moved, and uncomfortable. His chest felt full and his nose felt sore. He also hugged Liu Guizhi and burst into tears: "Mom, Mom is the best. You are the best mom in the world, the best mom. Fubao wants you to be my mom... Mom is the best..."
The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly on the kang, which worried the four men beside them. The three boys were dumbfounded. The mother cried, and the sister cried too...
Gu Yuejin suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "It's all Third Aunt's fault. Third Aunt scolded my mother, and I'm not done with her!"
Gu Weidong was also helpless. He wanted to say a few soft words, but he couldn't say them. He wanted to hug Liu Guizhi to comfort her, but he couldn't bring himself to do that in front of his sons.
Just when he was rubbing his hands in pain, not knowing what to do, suddenly, Gu Shengtian shouted: "Mom, what were you saying just now? It sounded like you were calling me treasure?"
When he shouted, the other three men, big and small, were stunned. They thought carefully and thought about what Liu Guizhi was saying while crying just now.
Is it "Woooooooooooooo baby woo ...
Gu Weidong recalled this and looked at Liu Guizhi in shock: "You, what did you just say? Say it again?"
Fubao was still crying there, his little nose was red and his thin white eyelids were red. When he heard this, he was stunned and looked at Liu Guizhi expectantly.
Liu Guizhi was filled with guilt and was crying uncontrollably. Suddenly, she was stunned by what her man's son said.
Tears still hung on her eyelashes as she blankly recalled what she had just said: "Woo woo woo baby?"
When she said this, everyone in the room was surprised and delighted: "Bao, Bao, you said Bao, can you tell me more?"
Liu Guizhi was completely dumbfounded. Did she just say "treasure"?
But what did she say just now?
Fubao sniffed his red nose and said with a nasal voice after crying, "Mom, think about me and call my name."
Liu Guizhi hesitated for a moment, but seemed not to know how to pronounce it.
But she looked at the men and children who were waiting in the room, recalled the feeling just now, and tentatively opened her mouth: "Woo woo woo, treasure? Baby?"
Gu Weidong was overjoyed when he heard this: "You, you can talk now, you can talk now!"
Fubao also smiled, with sparkling tears in his eyes: "Mom can call my name now!"
Liu Guizhi was dumbfounded. She thought about it and it seemed to be correct. She touched her mouth, imagined the feeling just now, and said loudly: "Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby!"
Well, I mentioned ten treasures in one breath!
After the almost unbelievable surprise, the whole family smiled and surrounded Liu Guizhi, listening to her say "treasure" countless times. Finally, they were sleepy and tired, so they all went to sleep. Gu Weidong and Liu Guizhi finally had a conversation.
She had been mute for thirty years, but now she could actually speak. Although it was only one word, "Bao", it was a wonderful experience for her, something she had never experienced before.
Gu Weidong said: "Don't be upset about Fubao. If they say something bad, their mother will naturally take care of them, and their brothers will talk to them. Fubao is a good child, a blessed child. We just need to understand it in our hearts. There is no need to explain it to them. If they could understand this, they would have——"
He now understood more or less what Liu Guizhi meant. The character group with the word "Fu" was forced upon Liu Guizhi by Shen Hongying.
He laughed. "If they had understood this, would they have stuffed the paper ball into your hand? My sister-in-law is a smart person. By stuffing the paper ball into your hand, she was actually stuffing blessings into your hand. I think that's what she meant. Sooner or later, they will understand that Fubao is a blessing, a blessing for us. Don't you think my sister-in-law will be so angry that she will die?"
Liu Guizhi thought about it and realized that Shen Hongying would be angry to death sooner or later.
But...she was still not happy about it.
She didn't want others to say that about Fubao. Fubao was her good daughter, a good daughter. She didn't want others to say that about her, and she didn't want Fubao to suffer such grievances.
Gu Weidong naturally understood what Liu Guizhi meant. He narrowed his eyes slightly and lowered his voice, "I've also thought it through clearly now. With so many people in this family, it's impossible for them to all work together. From now on, I—"
He paused before saying, "I've always wanted to do something in the future, so that my family can eat cornmeal steamed bread instead of black dry food. I have a lot of ideas in my mind and want to do a lot of things. But since the whole family lives together, I can't do anything."
He understood that this family would be divided sooner or later.
It's just a matter of time.
After the family business was divided, he worked hard to provide his wife and children with a good life, and then those who cursed Fubao would be envious to death.
