At noon, my second grandmother forced me to stay at home for a meal and I was not allowed to go out until near dusk. If my family had not strongly opposed it, I would probably have had dinner at her house.
In those days, supplies were scarce and the grain harvest was poor. Relying on the nearby mountains, every household could barely fill their stomachs. No one would want to eat at someone else's house unless they could not refuse, because if they ate one more meal, others would have one less meal.
The brother and sister returned home wrapped up tightly and were stunned to see the cleaned road in front of the gate.
Wei Ci looked at Wei Qingfeng, then at the cleaned road surface, and her little head was full of question marks.
"Brother, did you do it alone?" Are you that awesome?
Wei Qingfeng was very calm. He pulled the little girl by the back of her neck and walked towards home step by step.
"No, it was Uncle Jianguo who led the uncles and aunts in the village to clean it out."
"Wow, they're really nice people."
"Why do you think everyone looks like a good person?"
At least the second and third uncles of the Wei family are not like that. Those two families are like stones in the toilet, smelly, hard and disgusting.
At this time, the homes of Uncle Wei's second and third uncles were almost filled with quarrels.
"Go clean it up. My broken leg hasn't healed yet. They say it takes a hundred days for a broken bone to heal. I still have a few days to go."
Uncle Wei lay on the warm kang and refused to get up.
"Qingmiao, why don't you get up and join mother?"
Wei Qingmiao sneered: "Do you think I can get up?"
Not only did she have injuries on her legs, she also had a fractured coccyx. Asking her to go out and clear the snow was like asking her to die early and be reborn.
"Then the little flowers and grass will come with me."
In the corner, two skinny girls with pale faces responded timidly. Their clothes were tattered, revealing the black and hard reed fluff underneath. Their hands holding the tools were red, swollen and ulcerated, and their cheeks were covered with frostbite. Their eyes were timid, and they didn't dare to say a word even though they were shivering with cold.
Wei Qingmiao's eyes flashed as he glanced at the frail backs of his two younger sisters, feeling complicated. Their endings in their previous lives were not much better than his own, and he wondered if things would change in this life.
"You silly girl, God raised you up with all his might, but now you're grown up and can't help me with anything, and you still make me work so hard to take care of your family."
Knowing that she was making indirect accusations, Wei Qingmiao remained silent. He watched coldly as Second Aunt Wei, feeling so aggrieved but having to take tools to go outside to clear the snow, lowered his eyes to hide his sarcasm.
If you want a self-satisfying marriage, you have to bear all the consequences yourself.
Looking at the vast expanse of white outside, Wei Qingmiao listened to the sounds of banging pots and cursing in his third uncle's house and his father's snoring, and felt irritated. When would this endless day ever end?
She wanted to be a city dweller and eat government food. Next year, a large number of educated youth would go to the countryside, and life would be even more difficult. She didn't know if that person would still come here. Her rebirth had changed the time when Wei Ci woke up, but she didn't know if other things would change.
Thinking of the man who caused the tragedy of his life in his previous life, Wei Qingmiao's eyes became increasingly gloomy, and his hands hidden under the quilt were almost white from exerting too much force.
"Wu Jiayu, I will avenge you in this life for my past life. I will never let you go this time!"
★
Wei Ci was busy with her work with her head down, needle and thread flying in her hands. Her long, curled eyelashes cast a shadow under her eyelids. She had red lips, white teeth, and thick black hair. She sat there quietly like a painting of a lady.
Wei Qingfeng lifted the door curtain, bringing in a gust of cold wind. Wei Ci was caught off guard and her nose felt itchy, so she sneezed loudly. The tip of her nose turned red instantly, and her eyes became misty.
"Why are you so squeamish?"
Bang!
Wei Qingfeng was hit so hard that he staggered and almost fell down.
"Get lost, Ah Ci is a girl, how can she be the same as a stinky old man like you?"
Familiar voice?
Wei Ci looked up in surprise and met the young man's gentle and smiling eyes.
“Big Brother!”
Wei Ci was surprised. She put down the clothes in her hands and was about to stand up, but she tripped over something and flew out with a scream.
Wei Qingshan's eyebrows twitched and his heart skipped a beat.
With his right hand, he quickly grabbed the back of the girl's neck, and with his left hand, he protected her in front of him. He sighed helplessly: "Aci, don't be so careless. What if you really fall and hit your face?"
Such a beautiful girl would have cried so hard after her face was disfigured. If her parents knew about it, they would probably send her a dream and beat her, leaving her with a psychological trauma.
Wei Ci was lifted up in the air and floated there. She jumped up and down in excitement, but her height was limited and her feet couldn't reach the ground even after swinging in the air for a long time. In the end, she had no choice but to give in and let her brother put her on the kang.
Being short means you have no human rights!
"Brother, are you on vacation? How many days did you have off?"
Wei Qingshan curled his lips and touched Wei Ci's dog head.
"Well, it's vacation time. I can stay at home with you and Qingfeng for a month."
Wei Ci screamed, forgetting the lesson just now, and stood up excitedly, almost falling off the kang again. A slender finger pressed against her forehead and she could not move at all.
"There are guests here, don't be so crazy, be careful, if you really break your face, you won't even have a place to cry!"
guest?
Wei Ci, who was obedient and only paid attention to the key points, tilted her head and saw two tall figures in military coats behind her eldest brother, one of whom was particularly familiar.
"Brother Zhan?"
Hearing the soft and sweet call of "brother", Gu Zhan looked at Wei Ci with deep brows, his dark green eyes with a subtle smile, and nodded at her. It was rare for the man who always spoke venomously to be a little normal.
