Chapter 37 Complaining

Hearing what his father said, Walnut showed a smile on his face and said, "Daddy, can you go to the market and buy a mat for me and grandma's kang?
As soon as Walnut finished speaking, her mother, Cuihua, suddenly said: "That mat is very precious. It's not like you didn't miss it just now. The money owed to Mrs. Tian hasn't been repaid yet. What can I buy for you and your grandma?" Mat."

After hearing this, Walnut stopped talking, so he lowered his head. At this moment, he heard his father say, "No need to buy it. We brought back a piece when we came back. Let Chuntao look for it and give it to you."

Listening to what her father said, Walnut said in her heart: "I know this. Eldest sister Chuntao already said it yesterday, but mother didn't mean to give it! You said it now, and mother may not give it."

Just as she was thinking, Walnut heard her father shout into the house: "Chuntao, find out the mat that we carried when we came back from the outside, take it to your grandma, and spread it on the kang in the hut for them. .”

Hearing what his father said, Walnut quietly raised his head and glanced at his mother standing there, and saw her staring at him with her eyes, as if she had a grudge against him.

Chun Tao heard her father calling her, and ran out of the house quickly, when she heard her father asking her to find a mat, she nodded and said: "Okay, I'll go right away."

As soon as Chuntao finished speaking, she heard her mother Cuihua say: "What are you looking for? When I came back, I brought a piece of mat. The mat in this big house is also broken, and I haven't replaced it yet! Your brother Tie The egg crawls back and forth on the kang every day, how can it be done if the mat is not good."

Chuntao listened to her mother's words and stood at the door of the house, whether to enter or not to enter, she didn't know whether to listen to her mother's words or her own father's.

Hearing what his daughter-in-law Cuihua said, Father Walnut raised his eyes when he saw her, and said, "

If this mat is not for my mother and walnuts to spread on the kang, then I will buy one. It’s not that there is no silver at home. When we came back, I clearly gave you ten taels of silver. Just now, Mrs. Tian came to ask for the bill. Returning others, I want to ask you, what about the money, why don't you give the money you owe others?You won't let me buy a mat for your mother now? "

Cuihua heard Walnut's father shouting to herself, stood there with a straight face, looked at him and said, "Yang Fugui, don't you think it's wrong for you to say this? Who am I saving so much for? It's not for our family, come back You gave me ten taels of silver when I was here, but just now, I have nothing at home, and I can’t buy anything, let’s not talk about anything else, just the food for this family! How much money does it cost? What are you calling me to live a life on a budget? What can you do if you don’t spread the mats, didn’t you come here last night without laying the mats?”

Hearing his daughter-in-law's words, Father Walnut looked at her and said, "Who doesn't spread mats on the kang! Haven't you heard of it? The kang has no face and skin, and you don't have to pay back the money owed to others, but mother Mats must be spread in the house. Even if we don’t, we have to spread mats in the mother’s house. If you don’t want to, then go back to your mother’s house, and I won’t keep you.”

Hearing what he said, Mrs. Walnut stood there angrily and said: "Okay, good old fifth Yang, you are back home, you have grown up, right? You said that I should go back to my mother's house, then I will go away." Well, anyway, this poor family doesn’t even come here, so you think I’d rather stay here.”

Speaking of which, Cuihua walked directly into the room, started to pack her clothes and wrapped them in a small bag.

When Walnut's father saw this, he ignored his mother, Cuihua, and went straight out of the yard to buy seeds.

Chuntao and Walnut watched their father leave, and hurried into the house, and saw their mother Cuihua tidying up their clothes.Little brother Tiedanzi is playing beside her.

Seeing this, Chuntao hurried over, stretched out her hand to snatch the package that mother had packed, and said, "Mother, you are really leaving! We have been wandering outside for several years and finally returned home, so you have the heart to throw it away. Should I leave with my younger siblings? Besides, it’s not a big deal, what Dad said just now was also out of anger, so don’t blame him.”

As soon as Chuntao finished speaking, Walnut's grandma came in, looked at Cuihua who was being wronged and said, "Okay, I know you have been wronged, I listened to what you said in the yard just now, Mr. Five, that disobedient guy, come back and I'll take care of her, don't leave, I don't need the kang mat, I'll find a few pieces of paper later, and stick it on the kang with paste."

Hearing what Grandma Walnut said, Cuihua looked at her and said, "Mother, it's not that I won't lay a kang for you. You also saw that the mat in the house we live in is also broken. The iron egg is still young. The broken mat If it hurts him, what will happen."

Hearing what Cuihua said, Grandma Walnut said: "There is no need to explain, mother knows."

While they were talking, they suddenly heard a plop behind Cuihua.Everyone in the room looked where they saw the iron egg that was playing in front of his mother just now, and somehow fell to the ground.

When Walnut's mother saw this, she quickly turned around and got down on the ground to hug her, her face full of distress.

Grandma also hurried over, looked at the grandson in Cuihua's arms and said, "Put it on the kang and check if it is broken."

Hearing what her mother-in-law said, Cuihua quickly put the iron egg on the kang, and the two began to check it from left to right.

Walnut stood in front of the door and looked at the scene in front of him. He suddenly felt very ironic. His own mother seemed to be hostile to him since she came back, and she treated herself like a familiar stranger. This younger brother who can talk just now will be her baby.Suddenly fell to the mountain, didn't even cry out, how could it be broken.But looking at her nervous look, I found it funny.

After checking Tie Dan's body, Walnut's mother and grandma felt relieved when they saw that there was nothing serious.

Walnut's grandma looked at Cuihua and said, "Don't make trouble anymore. I'll just take care of him when the fifth child comes back. Take good care of the child. It won't be good if he doesn't break it again."

After finishing speaking, he walked to the door and stretched out his hand to pull Walnut out. As soon as he walked out of the house, Walnut heard grandma complaining: "You girl, didn't I tell you? I'll get some paper to paste the kang today, and it will be fine." , what kind of mat do you want, there was a commotion at home this morning."
