On the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month, every household in Haizi Village is beaming with joy.

Because they followed Su Li in the vegetable business, in just ten days or so, every family had saved more or less copper coins, enough to have a lively and prosperous Lantern Festival.

But the Su family is in a different situation.

Mrs. Su was lying on the bed drooling with her mouth and eyes crooked, Mrs. Zhao waited on her side, wiped her saliva, Mrs. Su drools again, Mrs. Zhao wipes again, Mrs. Su drools again, after repeating this several times, Mrs. Zhao lost Patience, throw the veil away, and love will flow away.

A few days ago, Mrs. Zhao was proud of Mrs. Su's ability to dig good things from Su Sanyun's house and came back, thinking how wise she was, to separate her family and follow the elders.

But now, Mrs. Su was paralyzed, and Zhao immediately felt that she was very unlucky. If she knew that she would be able to separate when the family was separated, she would save time serving this dead old woman who can't take care of herself.

The house is very cold, the weather is as cold as outside, the family has no money to buy charcoal fire, even in the second old house of the Su family, they can't afford a charcoal basin, so they can only cook like this.

The situation at home is getting worse day by day, and Mrs. Zhao is really sad.

After Su Meixiang was disfigured, she stayed behind closed doors and didn't even do any housework.As for Su Shimao, he studied since he was a child. He didn't know how to do any farm work, and his self-esteem was so strong that he didn't want to do anything, so he just clamored to study.

But the family could barely afford enough food, so how could there be any money left for him to study?
Mrs. Zhao's son and daughter are now useless people who can only eat and spend money.

Tofu Xi Shi and Liu Ru are both so fierce that they would die. The Zhao family had Mrs. Su to help them out, and they could barely suppress them.However, after Mrs. Su had a stroke and hemiplegia, Liu Ru and Tofu Xishi joined hands to dominate the family, and Mrs. Zhao didn't dare to make them work.

As a result, there are several members of the family, and all the burden of housework is on Zhao's shoulders.Mrs. Zhao was busy from morning to night, taking care of the whole family's meals, and serving her mother-in-law, Mrs. Su. In a few days, her hair turned gray a lot.

Only her husband, Su Daqi, is the only labor force in the family.But what is the use of labor alone?The family's Tian, ​​who entertained guests at Xiangmanlou last time to make amends, mortgaged it to pay the bill.

The situation of the Su family is really down and out.

It happened that it was snowing heavily, and the goose-feather-like snow was flying, and Zhao Shi was shivering with cold. Remembering that there was no firewood at home, he wanted to go to the mountains behind the village to collect some firewood.

When passing by the village, Mrs. Zhao saw that the dolls in the village had new clothes and were warmly dressed, making snowmen and having snowball fights in the village.There are red lanterns hanging at the door of every household of other villagers. Looking from a distance, the background is white snow, and the red lanterns look very beautiful.

Mrs. Zhao watched, jealous and jealous, rubbing her frozen hands, stomping her feet and continuing to walk forward.

On the way, Mrs. Zhao met Mrs. Zhu next door.

Sister-in-law Zhu was walking with a basket in her hand, talking and laughing with a young daughter-in-law from the same village.

Mrs. Zhao only heard Mrs. Zhu say: "Oh, my family is making Yuanxiao tonight, and I bought a lot of glutinous rice! The kid in my family asked for glutinous rice ribs, so I bought a lot of ribs by the way."

Another little daughter-in-law lifted the cover from her basket and said, "My mother-in-law said she wanted to eat braised pork, so I bought a big piece of pork belly. I also bought wine for my husband, and some peanuts and fennel beans. Appetizers like wine. Tonight is the Lantern Festival, and everyone is lively."

Mrs. Zhao heard them talking, as if she had smelled those delicious scents, her stomach was growling, she ran over in a few steps, picked up the little daughter-in-law's basket, hooked her head and looked inside, and she really saw a basket of food. nice one.
