"Second brother, third brother..."

Jiang Dehua shouted loudly and walked over from the field ridge. She held a satchel in her hand and wiped her tears with her sleeves as she walked.

"What's going on here?"

Zhang Guilan was the first to greet him.

"Is your mother-in-law...what does she want to do with you this time?"

Zhang Guilan didn't look very good, and Jiang Decai also had a gloomy face.

"Wow!"

Jiang Dehua grinned and started crying again.

"Stop crying! Stop crying! Be careful if others see you gossiping. Let's go back! It's almost noon now!"

Zhang Guilan said hurriedly.

Although there was no one around them, there were people working in other places not far away. There was a lot of gossip in the countryside, so it was always not good for others to see them.

A few people packed their things and went home. When they met people on the road, many people greeted Jiang Defu and the others, which they had never seen before.

"Defu, are you done with the fields?"

"Hey! Isn't this a flower? When did you come back? This girl has returned to her parents' home. You have to prepare something delicious for lunch!"

"That is!"

If rural people show kindness and make things happen at home, they will definitely behave in a very friendly manner, which is completely different from the previous cynicism.

Since the last fight with the Li brothers, they haven't encountered those brothers. I heard that they were seriously injured and couldn't get out of the bed.

Jiang Defu just laughed after hearing this. He must have been unable to get out of bed for a few days, but since he didn't come out for such a long time, he probably felt ashamed to see people. After all, he was so arrogant before.

Li Laosan's injury may be a bit serious. He didn't control his strength. His arms and legs should be broken, and his bones and muscles will be broken for at least a hundred days. As for the other remaining people, in order to avoid causing death, he used the strength of his hands leisurely. Ordered.

"Sister-in-law, isn't that the second-rate son's house? When I came home before, she always laughed at me and teased me. I wanted to have a fight with her. Why is the sun coming out from the west today and talking to us so enthusiastically? "

Jiang Dehua seemed to have forgotten the previous sad incident, and asked curiously while holding Zhang Guilan's arm.

"Well, maybe he changed his gender!"

Zhang Guilan smiled and did not give a specific reason.

It was almost noon. When Zhang Guilan got home, she washed up and invited Jiang Dehua to cook together.

Under Zhang Guilan's command, Jiang Dehua was so busy being greeted that she wandered around.

Lunch was very simple, including noodles in multigrain bone soup, cold purslane, and a few plump multigrain steamed buns.

Jiang Dehua was not tall, but she had a big appetite. She ate three bowls in a row, and also ate another multigrain steamed bun before putting down the bowl.

"I am full?"

"Uh, I'm full! Second brother, third brother, these big bone soup noodles are so delicious, and these multigrain steamed buns are mixed with a lot of good noodles, right? I... I haven't even eaten it at my mother-in-law's place... Such a filling meal!”

Speaking of eating, Jiang Dehua seemed to feel sad again.

"What's wrong with your old witch this time?"

Zhang Guilan asked angrily, obviously very dissatisfied with Jiang Dehua's mother-in-law.

"That's not it...it's not that I defeated Shuanzi, that I was a widow, and that I harmed Shuanzi! In the morning, I was made to work until dawn, and all the grass in the field was pulled out, and I was asked to go out and pull it out again, and then come back They didn't give me anything to eat. I was fed wild vegetable dumplings every day.

When I came back today, I saw two steamed buns in the pot, so I ate them. When my mother-in-law came back, she started beating and scolding me, saying they were reserved for my brother-in-law!

My brother-in-law doesn't even work. He sleeps until the sun hits his buttocks every day...

Second brother, third brother, you are definitely not to blame for me now..."

Jiang Dehua started to cry again as she spoke.

Her face was tanned, her hair was messy, and she cried in a funny yet pitiful way.

Jiang Defu sighed.

"Dehua, do you want to come home?"

he asked. "Third brother, of course I want to go back to our home. What daughter doesn't like to go to her parents' home?"

Jiang Dehua wiped her tears, obviously not understanding what Jiang Defu really meant.

"I mean, I'll come back from now on, not your mother-in-law's house. Anyway, your husband is gone!"

Jiang Defu said directly.

"Third brother?"

Jiang Dehua looked at Jiang Defu in surprise and was speechless.

Zhang Guilan and Jiang Decai also looked at Jiang Defu.

"Third brother, this matter... If Dehua comes back, she will be divorced. In the future, with this reputation, she wants to marry again..."

Jiang Decai said while gesturing with his hands.

If a woman has a problem with her reputation these days, her life will be very difficult.

"Second brother, Dehua is living like this. Even eating is a problem. What could be worse than not having enough to eat? Anyway, there is no hope of his man coming back. How can he spend his whole life in the Liang family? Widow?
It would be better if her mother-in-law treated her kindly. People live just to make ends meet. Now that they don’t even have enough to eat, what is the need to live on! "

Jiang Defu was speechless. The thinking of people in this era cannot be changed by simply changing.

"Then come back!"

After a moment, Jiang Decai gestured.

After all, she is her own sister.

He had considered a lot before. In the past few years, Jiang Dehua's mother-in-law was not very kind to Dehua, and Jiang Decai also went to the Liang family to reconcile the relationship.

It's just that the old woman was too hateful, and she didn't speak politely when she insulted him. There weren't many people at home, so she told him that if he wasn't satisfied, he could just take the money back.

Due to the rural environment and his own limited abilities, Jiang Decai was unable to protect his sister and could only swallow his anger.

Now that this is the case, come back and come back!

At worst, the whole family will save some food so they won't starve to death.

There was another very practical reason why Jiang Decai was so hesitant about letting Jiang Dehua come back.

That is in today's era, when a woman gets married, the land she was originally allocated will be taken back, and she will naturally be allocated land in her husband's village.

If you are divorced and come back, according to etiquette and custom, you will not replenish the land.

If there were no fields these days, these days...

"Third brother, you said... you said Shuanzi... Shuanzi is really dead?"

Jiang Dehua was about to cry again in an instant.

"Don't say you have any feelings for him. He left before you got married. How many times have you met him?"

Jiang Defu directly blocked the crying Jiang Dehua to prevent her from being endless again.

"No...no third brother, then I...am I really a widow and a husband?"

Jiang Dehua, a good cryer, lived up to her reputation. There was a cry in her voice again, although she was about to burst out.

"Dehua, third brother, to be honest with you, that Shuanzi probably won't come back. The last time I asked, people said it was most likely gone. I didn't tell you because I was afraid you would be sad!"

Let's not talk about the issue of being a widow or not. Are you willing to stay in your husband's house and endure hunger and be beaten and scolded by your mother-in-law, or do you want to go home?
Of course you may not be able to get married and will be an old girl for the rest of your life!But as long as my second brother and I are here, if there is food for us, there will be food for you! "

Jiang Defu said directly.

"Third brother, woo woo..."

"Shut your mouth and don't cry to me. You can choose between the two situations. Either continue to go back and suffer, or come home. You choose one! But if you choose to go back, you will be bullied and not have enough to eat in the future. Just don’t come back to talk!”

Jiang Defu said directly that he was most annoyed by Jiji Waiwai.

Many troubles in life are due to the indecision of many people, fearing this or regretting that.

"Third brother...I..."

"You choose one!"
