Chapter 274 Mother in a patriarchal family (12)
She could only nod reluctantly, looking at her dying chicken with distress, and at Su Zhen holding her money, with fire in her eyes.
Su Zhen was afraid that they would regret it, so he hurriedly asked his mother to call the elders of the clan. The family separation was quick, and there was nothing to talk about.
The more than one thousand yuan was originally said to be half for the family, but because the two elders lived with the eldest son, Su Zhen only received five hundred yuan. She was a little unhappy at first, but after thinking about what the eldest sister said, she had no objection.
After moving the things and the assigned chickens and ducks to the old house, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.
Su Zhen wiped the sweat from his forehead and wanted to take his parents to the town to make a phone call.
But Su Dahai looked at the vicissitudes of life and the old house full of traces of time, and felt sad. It was over, it was over, everything was over. After the separation, everything was over.
His mother doesn't follow him, and his nephews are even less likely to be filial to him. Who can he count on after a hundred years?
What’s the point of struggling in the future?
He only has a daughter, and all his daughters have grown up. All the money he will earn in the future will be earned for others.
Su Dahai seemed to have aged more than ten years in an instant, and his straight back had become rickety. His originally energetic face seemed to be covered with wrinkles in an instant. He looked at his third daughter and wanted to ask: Are you satisfied? ?
Are you satisfied with the ending of breaking up with your grandma, uncle and family, and making people laugh at you?
But in the end, he just sighed and said nothing. When his third daughter said that he was going to town to make a phone call, he just waved his hand: "You guys go, I'm tired and want to rest."
Su Zhen didn't care what happened to her father. She only knew that she was free from now on. She no longer had to look at other people's faces to eat a mouthful of food, she no longer had to be scolded by others in an angry manner, and she no longer had to worry about being kicked out every night. Go to the cow pen and sleep.
Su Zhen wiped away her tears, looked at her mother who looked dazed, as if she still couldn't recover, and said, "Mom, do you want to make a phone call with me?"
Zhao Li nodded, "Yes, yes."
She didn't dare to stay at home, fearing that her elder brothers and sisters-in-law would come looking for her, and she was also afraid that she wouldn't be able to keep her home, because she knew how much she weighed, and the five hundred yuan was still in her daughter's hand, and she didn't have any objections.
The village has now built a road, and it only takes an hour to take a bus from the village to the town.
The two of them waited by the road for more than ten minutes before the bus from the county to the town came. They got on the bus, paid fifty cents, found a seat and sat down.
Su Zhen was very nervous because she had five hundred yuan in her arms. She had never taken so much money before because she had a lot of money. When she looked at the people in the car, everyone seemed to be bad guys and wanted to steal her money. .
She even simulated countless times in her mind how she would respond if someone robbed her money and how she would protect the family's hard-earned money.
But no matter how frightened and nervous she was inside, she remained calm on her face, and could even tell her mother calmly: "Fourth sister will be back from the orchard next week, so don't send her a letter for the time being until she comes back."
At the second sister's place, the eldest sister said she would call her. The fifth sister, the fifth sister didn't know our existence. The eldest sister said you can't listen to the eldest aunt and go to her to ask for money.
Since you decided to send her away, don't disturb her life now. If you don't obey and go to the fifth sister, the eldest sister will not recognize you as your mother. "
This was already a serious statement for Zhao Li. Although there were not many people in the car and the third daughter said it quietly, it was like thunder in her ears. She was really afraid that her daughter would ignore her.
Zhao Li nodded repeatedly and promised: "Mom, I will listen to you, and whatever you say will be whatever you say."
The daughters are right. After all, her husband’s surname is Su. When he gets old, the descendants of the old Su family will naturally give him a bite to eat. What about her? She was not close to her mother's family, and her sister-in-law couldn't afford her. Every day she talked about driving her, a woman who couldn't give birth to a son, out of the Su family.
So she only has her daughter, the only one she can rely on is her daughter, and she must listen to her daughter.
To be honest, she was relieved that the family was separated today. She and her husband were the only ones taking care of the family fields, but throughout the year, all the income went into her mother-in-law's pocket.
She couldn't bear it anymore, because she was afraid that if she left Su's house, she would starve to death or freeze to death, otherwise, she would have run away long ago.
Seeing her mother like this, Su Zhen couldn't bear it, but she thought about the hardships she and her sisters had suffered, and thought about her second sister who was stationed with the army in the border area to be a stepmother, and she hardened her heart.
When she arrived in town, Su Zhen dialed her sister's phone number. When she heard her eldest sister's voice, she breathed a sigh of relief and told her exactly what happened today.
Su Tang has also been waiting for a call from her sister. She is afraid that her sister will not handle it well, that she will be injured, and that her parents will hold her back.
Because I was worried about my sister, I rarely went to see the renovation progress of the store. My mother-in-law went out to the park to do aerobics and didn't notice.
When it was almost four o'clock, she finally received a call from her sister. When she heard her sister talking about the separation process, Su Tang didn't speak and listened quietly.
After my sister finished speaking, she praised: "Zhenzhen, you did a good job. My sister knows that it is right to leave this matter to you."
Hearing the eldest sister's praise, Su Zhen was a little shy, but thinking of the five hundred yuan in her arms, she immediately asked in a low voice: "Eldest sister, what should I do with these five hundred yuan? Can I remit it to you?"
It was unrealistic to take it to school. She had to go to class and it was impossible to carry it with her. But she was worried about leaving it to her parents. Maybe she would only give it to them, and the rest of the money would be coaxed by her grandparents and uncle's family.
After much deliberation, the best way was to remit it to the eldest sister, but the eldest sister refused.
"Really, you have to learn one more thing today, and that is to spend money. Later you will take your mother to ask for leave from school, and then go to the market to spend all the five hundred yuan. No, keep some. Use it when you go to school.
After you finish your final exam, the eldest sister will send someone to pick you up and bring you to City S. "
"Spend...spent it all?" Five hundred yuan, how can you spend it all?
Zhao Li was also shocked. She hurriedly said: "Tangtang, you have to keep some. You need money to have children, study, and get married every month."
"Mom, you can still make money if you don't have money. Didn't you just move now? You must buy some things. Listen to me. Use this money to buy a bicycle. You can also ride a bicycle to pick Zhenzhen up from school on weekends.
Buy two more dogs, keep them in the yard, raise them well, and let them eat enough meat, so that they can protect you when your aunts and grandma come to the house to make trouble.
Buy some rapeseeds and scatter them in the yard, buy a radio and do your usual entertainment, buy a sewing machine, pull some pieces of cloth, and make new clothes. As for the fields, you and your dad have worked hard all your life. Now you should enjoy the happiness and just stay here. At home..."
Oh my God, how come her daughter's hands were so loose when she went to S City? Did she just buy those things?
