Tian Xiaocui thought that she would have to serve He Hong for a long time in the future, and she wanted to kill her with her eyes.
It took him a long time to take out the money from the inner pocket of his underwear.
"A money-loser is a money-loser. He only knows how to eat and not work. He has a lot of problems and still wants to take money out of my pocket."
That's as unpleasant as it can be.
Except for going to the village clinic to change medicine, Tian Xiaocui ignored He Hong.
He Fang takes care of He Hong's eating, drinking, defecating and urinating.
When He Hong found out that her leg was broken, she felt resentment towards Tian Xiaocui.
But when he thought about not having to work like He Fang as a hard-working ox for his family, he felt that his injury was worth it.
Every day when he lies in bed, he either fiddles with his face or the two sets of clothes he brought back.
Luo Quanxiang strolled to the wall every day, looking forward to the quarrels between Tian Xiaocui and He Hong.
I didn't hear any movement for several days and couldn't help but wonder.
With Tian Xiaocui's personality, she shouldn't let it go so easily.
And Tian Xiaocui really didn't let it go.
But she has been very busy lately.
Busy looking for a partner for He Hong.
Girls should not be kept at home when they grow up, let alone a daughter who has been out and about for so long.
It would be better to get married now than to keep making enemies.
She is so young, she will definitely be able to get a substantial betrothal gift, and He Nan will have enough money to marry a wife.
"Hey, Xiaohong, you are at home sewing clothes. This dress is so beautiful. You will look so beautiful when you get married in it."
Luo Quanxiang came uninvited, sat on the edge of the bed, and praised the skirt in He Hong's hand.
"Getting married? Aunt, you're such a joke. I'm still young, and my parents don't want me to get married so early."
The main thing is that He Hong herself is not in a hurry.
After all, she is a person who has seen the world. Her behavior and dress style are very different from those of the country people. She should be the one to choose the person, and there is no reason for her to be chosen by others.
"Oh, your aunt, I'm not kidding. Zhao Dazui goes out early and comes back late just to pick a good husband for you. I saw your mother humming a little tune when she went out this morning. I think your wedding is not far away. When the time comes, your aunt will have a few more glasses of wedding wine to share in the joy."
Luo Quanxiang's words suddenly blew away He Hong's thoughts.
Her mother actually found a man for her without her knowledge.
How could those men who only knew how to farm and grind the mill every day be worthy of her?
He Hong's face was distorted because of anger.
Coupled with the gloomy light in the woodshed, it was like a ghost from hell taking lives.
Luo Quanxiang's heart was beating rapidly.
"Oh, it's getting late. I still have to go back to cook for your fourth uncle. I won't chat with you for now. You have difficulty walking, so you don't have to send me off. My house is right next door, not far away. What a coincidence, isn't it?"
Luo Quanxiang became incoherent and fled from Tian Xiaocui's house.
After Luo Quanxiang left, He Hong lost interest in admiring the skirt and lay listlessly on the bed.
Countless solutions flashed through my mind.
After a while, Tian Xiaocui's happy voice was heard from the yard.
"He Fang, where have you been? Go dig some ginger and pick some green onions. We'll have fish for dinner."
Looking at the grass carp weighing more than two kilograms in Tian Xiaocui's hand, He Fang drooled wildly.
"Hey, I'll go now."
He Hong was a little puzzled. How could Tian Xiaocui, who was so stingy, be willing to buy fish?
The sun is rising from the west, it's either a trap or a Hongmen Banquet.
At this time, Tian Xiaocui pushed open the door of the woodshed.
"Xiaohong, let your dad carry you out later. Let's eat in the yard today."
As soon as she finished speaking, the grass carp in Tian Xiaocui's hand started flapping its wings.
A few drops of water fell on He Hong's face, and a fishy smell spread in her heart.
Something is wrong. Something is very wrong.
Could it be that Luo Quanxiang's guess was right, and Tian Xiaocui found a suitable family?
No, she doesn't want to get married so early, she can still meet someone better.
However, except for her, everyone else in the family was smiling from ear to ear.
He Fang was burning a fire in the stove, but her heart was already in the pot.
He Nan had already started eating, leaning against the door frame, with a large piece of tender fish belly in his bowl.
Tian Xiaocui kept calling him "good boy".
"Hey, can you eat slowly? There's still some left in the pot. It's all yours. No one will snatch it from you."
He Nan was completely focused on the fish and selectively ignored Tian Xiaocui's words.
"Aidang, bring Xiaohong out, we're ready to eat."
When He Hong came out, Tian Xiaocui had already served her the meal.
Unlike the usual sweet potato rice which is only a few bites, this time it is almost overflowing.
"Come, Xiaohong, I'll give you a fish head. Fish heads are nutritious. I guarantee you'll be smart and clever after eating them."
He Nan said in a stern tone, "Let's not do that. How smart can it be when the fish is already in our bowl?"
"Don't listen to your brother, he just envies you."
Tian Xiaocui stepped on his foot under the table, fearing that he would let the cat out of the bag.
"Tsk, what's there for me to envy a cripple? Hey, you chicken-headed guy, can you please take your feet off and eat them? They have a stinky green smell that's killing me."
He Nan fanned his nose in disgust.
He Hong applies herbal medicine and rubs medicinal wine on her legs every day. After a long time, her body has a strong smell of medicine.
He Hong's grip on the chopsticks tightened unconsciously.
He calmly picked up the two largest pieces of fish and put them into his bowl.
Tian Xiaocui was about to explode, but she held herself back when she thought of the one hundred yuan betrothal gift.
"Xiaohong is sick now, so she should eat more. Here, this pickled cabbage dumpling has been castrated for a long time, it's very tasty and nutritious. Eat more of it."
Seeing this, He Fang quietly reached her chopsticks into the plate containing the fish.
"What are you doing? Did I allow you to eat? Can't you see your parents, brothers and sisters are here? We haven't even started eating yet, why are you grabbing it?"
After being glared at by Tian Xiaocui, He Fang turned her chopsticks and stopped in the bowl of pickles.
The sweet potato rice in the bowl was almost gone. He licked the edge of the bowl again and again, hesitated for a moment, and finally put down his chopsticks.
He Hong had almost finished eating.
She leaned on the edge of the chair, touching her round belly, waiting for He Aidan to carry her back.
After everyone in the family had left the table, He Fang picked up the fish bones on the table and started chewing them.
Bit by bit, even the hairy meat had to be picked out and eaten.
The fish bones were chewed until they were shiny, and He Fang chewed her fingers reluctantly and went to collect the dishes.
We have been eating fish at home for several days.
Every time, almost half of the fish meat was eaten by He Hong.
Tian Xiaocui turned a blind eye and didn't say a single harsh word.
Until this day, a man entered He Hong's house.
"What are you doing? Who let you in? Get out now! I'm calling for help."
He Hong wrapped herself in a dirty, thin blanket with no visible pattern.
In order to make it easier to apply the medicine, she did not wear pants and only wore a thin autumn shirt on her upper body.
But the man acted as if he didn't hear anything and just sat on the edge of the bed.
