Chapter 1 Grandma Gets Beaten
In the early morning by the sea, the air was humid and accompanied by a fishy smell. Walnut was squatting on the beach with other children and digging for small crabs with a basket.In the village not far away, the chimneys of every household are smoking.

At this time, someone shouted, "Walnut, go home quickly, your grandma and your second mother are fighting."

Hearing this, Walnut stood up with the basket in his arms and ran away.I even forgot the small shovel for digging crabs.

Panting and running back to the door of the house not far from the sea, I saw a lot of people surrounded by my grandma's house. After breaking through the crowd, Walnut walked in, and saw my second mother standing in the yard, pinching her waist , raised his neck and cursed.

Just listen, Erniang scolded: "You old man, bring a oil bottle to my house to ask for food, and I won't give it to you. Let me tell you, if you want food, you can send that idle girl away. Why is he a son, his father doesn't pay for food for the elderly, and he doesn't take any money, so you still give him a daughter for nothing, why are you so partial, don't let us look after the children, and let us ask for food."

Then look at grandma sitting alone on the threshold touching her tears, with obvious slap marks on her face.Walnut hurriedly put down the basket and ran over, looked at grandma and said, "Grandma, what's wrong with you, Er Niang beat you?"

As soon as she finished speaking, before her grandma could speak, she heard Er Niang who was scolding behind her say, "Little girl Pianzi, let me tell you, if you don't leave for a day, don't let this old bastard go to my house to ask for food." Go, no, I won’t give you even the dogs.”

When the grandma heard that the second daughter-in-law scolded herself like this, she wiped away her tears and said, "Get out of here, get out of here, we don't want your food, and if you don't give it to our mother, we won't starve to death."

When Walnut heard Erniang's words, she felt extremely uncomfortable. She knew that she had caused her grandma to suffer. If she hadn't been here, the aunt and Erniang wouldn't have stopped giving her food.Every now and then, he came to the door to beat and scold him.

Seeing the slap marks on grandma's face, Walnut wiped away tears twice, went back to the house, brought a basin of cold water, threw a wet towel and carefully wiped grandma's face, looked at grandma and said, "Grandma, Don't go to Erniang's house to ask for food, if there is no food, let's find a way by ourselves."

Before Walnut finished speaking, he saw a person squeezed in from the lively crowd, walked up to Erniang Walnut who was scolding, stretched out his hand and walked out, grabbing her arm without saying a word, and said as he walked, " You prodigal bitch, if you don't make breakfast at home early in the morning, what are you doing here, what are you looking for?"

This person is none other than Walnut's second uncle, and the arrested Walnut Erniang heard her boss scolding herself like that.Immediately jumped up and said: "Second Yang, try beating me up, why does your mother always come to our house to ask for food, why should we care about her when we are unable to open the pot, what did he give us when we got married? "

The grieving grandma who was sitting at the door heard what the second daughter-in-law said, stood up and said, "Second brother, take your daughter-in-law away quickly, and you are not allowed to come to our house in the future. You haven't given us a grain of food in the past two years. We didn't starve to death either."

Hearing what his mother said, the second child blushed, grabbed his daughter-in-law's hand and said more emphatically, "Go home, you don't feel ashamed, my child and I also feel ashamed, our old Yang family You've lost all your face."

After the words fell, he dragged his wife out of the yard.

The spectators watched the second child drag his wife away, and shook their heads and dispersed one after another.

While covering grandma's face with a towel, Walnut said distressedly: "Grandma is all because of me."

After hearing what the sensible walnut said, grandma smiled wryly and said, "walnut! Don't blame yourself. It's not because you're here that they didn't give me food. You're just an excuse."

After hearing this, Walnut said, "Grandma, stop talking."

After saying that, Walnut wrung out the towel and entered the house with a water basin. Seeing that grandma hadn't cooked breakfast, Walnut knew that there must be no food at home.Grandma will go to the second family's family to ask for food in the morning.

Thinking of this, he looked back at the sad grandma who was sitting on the threshold again. Walnut picked up the basket he had just brought back, and saw a few small crabs and shells he had just dug back.Packed up by myself.

While thinking about it, I and my grandma have depended on each other for the past few years, and my uncle is still filial, stealing some food from time to time.

The second uncle's house didn't give a single grain, and they often came to make noise.When my parents heard that they had gone to the north, they never brought back any money to grandma throughout the year.I became a free eater here.Although grandma loves her very much, every time she sees Erniang insulting grandma by using herself as an excuse not to give food, she feels very uncomfortable.

While thinking about it, the crabs and shellfish in his hand had already been packed, and they were thrown directly into the pot, added some water, and started to burn.

Grandma stood up from the threshold where she was sitting, watched the walnuts ignited, and asked, "Walnuts, what are you doing? There is no food at home. Don't light the fire. Let me take you to your aunt's house to find something to eat." Go, grandma is thinking of a way for dinner."

After hearing this, Walnut looked at grandma and shook her head and said, "No need grandma, I just dug some crabs and picked up some shellfish. I'm done cleaning it up. Let's have a drink when it's cooked."

Hearing what Walnut said, grandma sighed and said, "It's all because grandma is incapable of raising such a big group of sons, and makes you starve when she gets old."

After hearing this, Walnut looked at grandma and said, "Grandma, what did my parents go to the north, why didn't they come back?"

After hearing Walnut's question, grandma was silent for a while and said, "Hanut, have you forgotten what your parents look like?"

Walnut nodded and said: "Grandma, I really can't remember what my parents looked like. When they left, I didn't remember much. I only vaguely remembered that there was an older sister.

Hearing what Walnut said, grandma sighed and said, "Don't blame your parents, Walnut, you have a sister named Chuntao above you, who is two years older than you, and a brother below you, who is two years younger than you. People are living a good life, but it’s useless to be a grandma. She led your brother out to pick up shells, and accidentally lost him. Your father and mother heard that the child was stolen by a troupe, so they led you My sister has been drifting outside looking for your brother. In order to let me have a company, they left you by my side."

Hearing what grandma said, Walnut knew the whole story thoroughly. Ever since he remembered the incident, he knew that the aunt and the second mother were not good to grandma, but he didn't know why his father and mother left home .
