60s: Petite Wife

Although many unpleasant things happened, the New Year of 1967 passed happily. Everyone is looking forward to the arrival of spring, because spring is full of hope, and it can also be eaten by people who have experienced a whole winter drought. Fresh and delicious wild vegetables, fill the stomach!

It’s just that the spring girl in the north is not as diligent as the south. In the south, in the first month of the year, you can see the bright green dots burrowing out unwillingly, but here is still a vast expanse of white, and the snow under the New Year’s Eve has not yet melted. Woolen cloth!

Ma Xinghua said that we will have to wait until at least March before we can pick up wild vegetables. At that time, the mountains and plains will be full of fresh and tender wild vegetables. They will be steamed, fried, salads, dumplings, and pancakes, all delicious.

"The most important thing is to save a lot of food!"

Shen Jiao felt that what Ma Xinghua wanted to emphasize should be the last sentence. After the severe winter, every household has no food surplus. There are already many people who only eat two meals a day, which are still watery. They were reluctant to go any longer, for fear of tossing up the few grains in their stomachs.

Everyone is looking forward to the arrival of spring, not looking forward to the colorful spring, but only hope that the spring girl can bring food to their stomachs.

There are two households who are most looking forward to spring, the Hu family and the Zhu family.

"I heard from Si Ya that the Zhu family has run out of food, and the whole family has a bag of sorghum left. Even if they count the grains, they won't make it to the harvest time!" Ma Xinghua gloated.

Shen Jiao was relieved to hear that, these bad guys would have to starve them to death, but...

"Isn't the fourth sister even less able to eat?" Shen Jiao asked with concern.

Ma Xinghua pouted and said bitterly: "No, Si Ya said that there was still a bowl of sparse vegetable soup to drink in the past, but now there is only soup left, and even the leaves of the vegetables are gone. Received!"

Shen Jiao also scolded a few words, and planned to give Zhu Siya some food to eat later, otherwise, Zhu Siya was afraid that she would starve to death, and the Zhu family would definitely be ruthless and care about her life or death.

"The life of the fox is not easy, but it is better than the Zhu family. It can last until the time to collect the potatoes. Besides, Hu Xiangyu is rich, and he can go to the back street to buy high-priced food." Ma Xinghua was quite unwilling.

Shen Jiao looked at Ma Xinghua with a smile. Every time this girl talked about Hu Xiangyu, she was gnashing her teeth. She changed the subject and asked, "Is everything ready for your family's wedding?"

Ma Xinghua immediately raised her eyebrows: "Okay, my grandparents have gone back to their hometown to take care of it. On the 16th day, Jiaojiao, you went to have a drink with me. My home is in the village ahead, not far away."

Shen Jiao really wanted to go, but she had a delicate mind. Since Zhao Si disappeared, she felt the change in the Ma family's attitude. Aunt Ma was obviously colder. Although Xing Hua Niang's face was as polite as before, her eyes How could she not be aware of the alienation, only the silly girl Ma Xinghua in the whole family is still the same as before!

"Of course it's good to have a drink, but it's up to the adults to decide. It's better for Sister Xinghua to go back and talk to the aunt." Shen Jiao said euphemistically.

The smile on Ma Xinghua's face immediately subsided. Since the accident of Jiaojiao's fourth uncle, her grandparents and mother have not allowed her to interact with Jiaojiao, saying that it will affect the third brother, she can't understand how good Jiaojiao is. Man, how can you be a bad person?

No need to ask her, she knew that her family would definitely not agree to Jiaojiao drinking, sigh, she forgot about it just now, what should she tell Jiaojiao now?

How hurtful!

Shen Jiao knew the attitude of the Ma family when she saw the hesitation on Ma Xinghua's face. Although she was mentally prepared, she was still astringent in the end. She has become a plague now, and everyone can't avoid it.

"Sister Xinghua, don't ask, I'm afraid I can't go out for a drink. I just remembered that the rule in my hometown is that you can't go out on the 16th of the first month. You have to stay at home for a day. Look, I almost forgot." Shen Jiao pretended to be annoyed, trying to resolve her friend's embarrassment.

Ma Xinghua breathed a sigh of relief, the embarrassment on her face eased, and she said, "Then I'll come back and bring you something delicious, the master chef in our village is very skilled, and the fried **** are fragrant and crispy, and delicious. !"

"Okay!" Shen Jiao smiled.

Ma Xinghua went back soon. She sneaked out while she was going to the firewood house to get firewood. Her mother would find out after a long time, but when she entered the house, she saw her mother standing at the door with a dark face.

"Going to find the Shen family girl again?" Xinghuaniang asked in a deep voice.

Ma Xinghua didn't want to lie, so she simply lowered her head and said nothing. She looked like a dead pig not afraid of being scalded by boiling water. Seeing that Xinghua's mother was angry, she picked up the broom hanging on the wall and wiped it over.

"You poor fellow, why do you ignore my words? Are you willing to kill your third brother, ah?"

Xinghuaniang seems to be really hot. She rarely beats children. She is not light at all. Ma Xinghua has been smeared on her head and body several times, and it hurts hotly, and her heart hurts even more.

"Why did I hurt the third brother? What happened to Jiaojiao? Did she kill or set fire to her? Her grandfather also saved your life. If it wasn't for Mr. Shen's pills, Mom, would you still have the strength to hit me?" Ma Xinghua stalk pushed back with his neck.

Xinghuaniang was so embarrassed that she didn't dare to look directly into her daughter's bright eyes.

Ma Xinghua is also on fire~www.NovelMTL.com~ cried out: "Mom, you always say that you must not be ungrateful, you must have a conscience, now why are you doing something without a conscience? What the **** are you doing?"

Xinghuaniang's complexion changed greatly. Seeing the redness and swelling on her daughter's body, she felt so distressed that she hurriedly threw the broom. Why did she make such a heavy hand?

Hearing her daughter's accusations, Xinghuaniang was even more sad, her body was shaky, and she was so frightened that Ma Xinghua hurriedly hugged her, crying and begging: "Mom, what's wrong with you? Don't be angry, it's my fault. , you beat me out!"

Madam Xinghua let out a long sigh, gently caressed the wound on her daughter's face, and said sadly: "Sannier, when mother wants to be an ungrateful person, mother is afraid of hurting your third brother, your third brother is our family. The backbone of our family, if we want to stand out, we can all point to your third brother!"

"Shen's grandfather and grandson are good people, but their family background is too innocent. Our family can't mix with them. Sannier, Mom please, don't go to the Shen family girl again, ah!"

Ma Xinghua was sobbing and crying, but she refused to let go of her promise to her mother. She was so angry that Mother Xinghua's chest hurt and her face turned paler. Ma Hongqi, who was watching the battle, came over and twisted on Ma Xinghua's body, rushing towards Xinghua. Mother said: "Mom, don't worry, the third sister will definitely not go to Shen's house in the future, I will watch her for you!"

Only then did Xinghua Niang feel comfortable, and Ma Xinghua helped her to lie down on the kang.

Ma Xinghua dragged her brother to the yard and wanted to scold him for being unconscionable. Ma Hongqi giggled and said, "You know how to be flexible? Mom won't let us play with Jiaojiao, so let's play secretly, and let Mommy find out. Why do you have to fight against your mother, not to mention being beaten, and make your mother angry enough!"

Ma Xinghua was only happy then, and gave her brother a thumbs up.
