That's it. After enduring the winter, when spring came and flowers bloomed, 놛 left.
Left completely.
She chose to leave quietly and told her children that she was going back to Old Song's house. Then he left.
Still no one spoke to 놛, no one tried to keep her, the children just went about their work without even glancing at her.
Just like that, with one hand folded and one leg dragging, he walked past Widow Sun's door, past Old Song's door, and came to the river at the entrance of the village.
The river water in spring is very cold, like a winter night.
I didn't know whether my body would be found, but I knew it would flow down the river to a farther place.
Song Sanzhu felt that his life was a joke, and in the cold river, tears flowed down his face again.
Seeing Song Sanzhu crying, Song Chunsheng asked excitedly: "Grandpa, my father is crying, does that mean he can't die?"
Song Jinxiu glanced at this scumbag father and said impatiently, "He's definitely not going to die. How much does it hurt? A grown man is crying. My brother didn't even cry when you broke his leg."
snort! I despise you.
Hearing the sound, Song Sanzhu opened his eyes suddenly and looked at us with a blank face.
Song Jinxiu was startled and couldn't help but kick him: "What are you doing? Don't play dumb? The medical expenses are fifty taels, not a cent."
In fact, she was not sure in her heart. Although it seemed that there was no problem, the brain was too complicated. Maybe this scumbag father was out of his mind and was really stupid?
When Mrs. Song saw that her third son had woken up, she felt relieved, at least he was not dead.
But before I could completely relax, I heard that the consultation fee would be fifty taels? Can this damn girl cure diseases? You want to extort money just by pricking me with a needle?
She was anxious and jumped up and down, "What? Fifty taels? Are you trying to blackmail me? Ah? You stabbed my son's head and I want you to pay me back."
"Mom, I can't stand the pain anymore, please take me to the clinic."
The severe pain made Song Sizhu sweat profusely.
I wonder what kind of magic this woman used? My hand can't feel anything now except pain.
"Okay, I'll let you pay the money and send my son to the hospital."
After that, she stretched out her hand to Song Chunsheng and said, "Pay compensation, fifty taels, no, one hundred taels, pay it quickly and I will let you go first, otherwise, you will be damned."
When Song Chunsheng saw Song Sanzhu wake up, he naturally stood there with a gloomy face. After listening to what Old Lady Song said, he said coldly, "No."
"How dare you not pay the compensation?" She looked at her eldest son, only to find that he was hiding behind her eldest daughter-in-law. Well, it seemed that she could not count on this cowardly guy.
Her eyes rolled around, and she suddenly grabbed the village head's sleeve and said, "Village head, look at what my two sons have been beaten into by you. You have to take charge of this for us!"
She pointed at Song Chunsheng and said, "This thing struck by lightning hit my grandfather. If it also hurts my son, he will die..."
"What are you talking about? I think you are the one who should be the one." The head of the village finally got angry.
This old woman has a vicious mind. Does she think Chen Tang is joking?
"Speaking of Shen Tang, your eldest son Song is the first one who can't escape. He broke someone's lock and stole things and was caught red-handed, which was embarrassing.
I didn't make it a point with you because of your age. Why? Are you still not angry?
And you, Sanzhu, cheated on your wife before marriage and had an affair. Don't you think you deserve to be buried in the mud? ”
Song Sanzhu was startled, but then he became dizzy. The feeling of being drowned by the cold river water was too clear and too real.
Wait, what did the head of the village just say?
Dad broke someone’s lock? Dad is a thief?
The Song family was stunned.
Mrs. Song's first reaction was that the headman was lying and must have been telling lies to please these children.
"That's right, auntie. Uncle took advantage of Chunsheng's absence and smashed the door lock with a weighing hammer. Someone happened to pass by and he was caught in the act. Don't you know about it?"
"Uncle Boss came home with a hurt face. How could you not know that he was just trying to extort money?"
"Oh, you didn't see it, but I saw it from beginning to end. The adults in our family came over aggressively and beat up the children without saying a word."
"Why didn't I see it? I saw it clearly. They were still clamoring for Chunsheng and the others to move in and give them their houses and fields."
"Oh, so you want to take the children's property for yourself. No wonder you keep saying you want to make people depressed."
"I didn't expect that Uncle Da's family is so cruel and shameless. They really bring shame to our Song family."
The villagers started to criticize the Song family one after another.
Song Dazhu felt his face burning and ashamed. He never expected his father to do such a thing.
If you want to steal something, just steal it. Why don't you come at night? In broad daylight, aren't you trying to get caught?
(Song Da: No one is at home during the day.)
Song Dazhui's wife cursed in her heart: What a deceitful father-in-law. Don’t you know that Dalang is going to take the exam soon? Don't you know how to save some face for your children and grandchildren?
Is it easy for her to act gentle and generous for the sake of Dalang's career?
This old guy ruined his image in an instant.
The wife looked at each other, and with tacit understanding, they quietly withdrew from the crowd and left.
Song Sanzhu watched as his elder brother and sister-in-law abandoned their mother and brothers and left without looking back.
My heart was surprisingly calm.
Big brother's family has always been so selfish, hasn't it?
After waking up, Song Sanzhu's thoughts kept going back and forth between reality and dreams.
It was not until this moment that 놛 finally remembered that his father had been beaten and that 놛 had come to cause trouble for his rebellious son.
However, the dream was too real, making my heart feel cold. Just like the icy river water, chilling to the bone.
놛 looked at Jinxiu for a long time, and Song Jinxiu wanted to stab 놛 blind.
Song Sanzhu looked at his eldest daughter standing in the light and shadow, and suddenly asked: "Sanya? Are you a human or a ghost?"
Actually, I want to ask: Sanya, have you ever died?
Song Jinxiu: "You are the ghost, your whole family is a ghost? What? Are you afraid that I will come back to life and seek revenge on you, my scumbag father? Just because you are unworthy?"
Song Sanzhu suddenly laughed.
She laughed and then started to cry. I want to laugh while crying.
Song Jinxiu frowned, "Well, this scumbag father seems to be really stupid."
Song Sanzhu stood up shakily, wiped his tears, cried and laughed, and actually staggered away.
That dream changed 놛's mood greatly. His son and daughter were not in the miserable situation of having no food to eat as in the dream. Sanya was not dead and she even called 놛 dad.
The scumbag dad is still the dad, he finally talked to me.
Maybe it was just a dream, but I could no longer face my mother, brothers, and those children with a normal heart.
Song Dazhu and his wife left, Song Sanzhu left, and Qian Daya saw that the situation was not good and slipped away.
At this time, at the door of Chunsheng's house, there were only Old Lady Song who was crying and begging for compensation, Song Sizhu who was crying and shouting in pain, and Silang and Wulang who were dumbfounded.
The head of the village said impatiently, "Well, let's send Sizhu to the county first. If you keep arguing, I don't think you can keep this arm anymore."
Mrs. Song had no sons and daughters-in-law to support her, and the villagers were pointing fingers and leaning towards Song Chunsheng and his people.
Moreover, she really loved her son, and finally urged Silang to go home and hitch the ox cart to the county town.
Before leaving, he threatened Song Chunsheng, "You rotten bastard, you have a mother who gave birth to you but no mother who raised you. Just wait for me, I will be back..."
