The temperature in Huangzhen is lower than that in Yushan District. In the past few days, the sky has always been gloomy. Snow crows kept flying in the sky, and it looked like it was going to snow. Zhu Yushen got up very late every day at Xiao Rong's mother's house. He

My whole body felt like it was falling apart. Xiao Rong's mother and Xiao Rong's nephew Nanzi got up late every day because there was no schooling at this time of year and there was no farm work to do. It was the most leisurely season in Huang Town.

Zhu Yushen felt that the day and night here were very quiet. It was comfortable at the beginning, but over time it became boring. Xiao Rong would not return from vacation for another week, but she told Zhu Yushen not to go back to Yushan District

Well, just stay in Huangzhen.

On the third day of staying at Xiao Rong's parents' house, Zhu Yushen couldn't sit still. He decided to complete a task. This is what he and Shen Bing said not long ago - he was going to visit his mother. Even though he really didn't want to

He saw his half-brother and his father Lai Wu, but once his longing for his mother arose, it became stronger and stronger.

After getting up on the morning of the fourth day, Zhu Yushen found that it was frighteningly dark, but he still asked Xiao Rong's mother to go to his mother's place. Xiao's mother stopped him and said that it looked like it was going to snow, so he should wait until the weather cleared before going.

.

Zhu Yushen hesitated for a moment, but in the end he decided to get on his bicycle and rode in the direction of Weili against the biting wind. There were many pedestrians along the way. This may be because of the closure of the city in recent years. People who worked outside have all returned.

Therefore, Huangzhen Street and other places were much more lively than usual. When Zhu Yushen rode to Zhangcun, where his mother was, it was already ten o'clock in the morning. This was because he became cold after riding and slowed down.

Rhythm.

At the entrance of the village, Zhu Yushen found a loaded truck parked on the narrow dirt road, surrounded by seven or eight people talking about something. When he got closer, Zhu Yushen couldn't help but feel excited, because he found that he

His mother and Laiwu were also among them.

Then, Lai Wu and his mother lifted up a basket of rice. The man who drove to harvest the rice was looking at the scale beam. After weighing it, he put it down. After the rice picked by the couple was weighed, they discussed

The price has risen.

Zhu Yushen was standing ten meters away from them. He didn't want to avoid it. Although some people in the group had noticed his presence, they only glanced at him briefly and then returned their attention to the collection.

Here comes the scarecrow.

Lai Wu and his mother seemed to be very involved. They had already quarreled with the rice harvester over the price. Lai Wu also rolled up his sleeves, as if he was going to hit someone. But the rice harvester seemed to be very good, and he followed

They said it was just this price, would you like to sell it? If not, he would drive the car away and be done with it?

Unexpectedly, after saying this, Lai Wu immediately became afraid, and he still made concessions. They sold the rice and got a few pieces of money, which they pinched and counted carefully. After working for a while, everyone dispersed.

Lai Wu was ready to go home with his basket. It was at this moment that his mother discovered Zhu Yushen's presence. She put down the burden in her hands and stood there, but said nothing.

Seeing his mother's expression, Zhu Yushen didn't know what to say or what to do. In the end, Lai Wu walked up to him, patted him and said, "Teacher Zhu is here to see your mother again? Let's go."

, come home with us!”

Only then did Zhu Yushen and his son regain their composure. The mother said to him: "Xiao Shen, why did it take you so long to come? Last time I heard someone said that you had been transferred to work in the city, and your conditions were getting better and better.

It’s getting better. But here, it’s still the same, and it’s even worse every year.”

After saying that, the couple walked in front of them, and Zhu Yushen pushed the bicycle behind them, walking together to their home. As Zhu Yushen walked, he looked at his mother and Lai Wu from behind, and found that both of them were very uncouth. Especially Lai Wu.

, his body was bent, hunched back, and his face looked very old. Zhu Yushen looked around again, and he found that the village seemed more shabby than before, and it was completely different from the scenery in Yushan District where he was currently located.

Farewell. As they walked, Zhu Yushen felt pity for his mother and Lai Wu.

After entering the house, Zhu Yushen put the things he had brought on the table, which he bought on Huangzhen Street in the morning. After Lai Wu took a look at the things, he seemed happier. He said that he had gone to buy some food and came back. His mother put Zhu Yushen's things on the table.

Put him in the firebox and she said she would go to the vegetable garden to get some vegetables.

Seeing the couple going out one after another, their staggering walking posture made Zhu Yushen's heart tremble. He really wanted to cry, but he couldn't find a reason to cry. At this time, he felt surprisingly quiet. And

The sky outside is getting darker and darker, and it looks like the snow will fall soon.

This made Zhu Yushen a little anxious. He was afraid that if there was heavy snowfall, it would be inconvenient for him to return to Huangzhen. Thinking of this, he got down from the fire box and walked to the door to take a look. He found that there were two

The old women were at the entrance of the courtyard. They were looking this way and whispering about something. Seeing this, he quickly retreated.

Then, he walked around the three-room tile-roofed house. He found that the entire room seemed dark and damp, probably because of the rain. He looked up and found that it was covered with small tiles.

.This kind of tile is too old and easy to crack.

The second floor of Xiao Rong's house was built with this kind of tile before, and it leaked badly when it rained. But last year they spent several thousand yuan to replace the tiles with high-quality flow-glazed tiles, so now they are a little bit

It was all gone. But his mother didn’t even do this, which was really chilling! He was worried about how they would cope with heavy rain. At the same time, Zhu Yushen also found that the furniture in these rooms was very shabby.

There was almost nothing decent inside. The more he looked at it, the colder he became.

After sitting back in the firebox, he thought of a question. This is what Jin Jun said before, poverty and embarrassment should be people's biggest enemies. In fact, he used to have hatred for his mother and Lai Wu, but as time passed,

With the passage of time and the shabby scene he saw before him, all his hatred disappeared.

He remembered that Jin Jun once mentioned the family situation of Big Eye and others, that the houses in the poor people's homes were old and dilapidated, and looked like they were about to fall down; the furniture in the house would all fall apart if kicked with a foot.

Jin Jun said, these people are so cowardly, they are not suitable for tinkering with things of love, disgust, and hatred!

It seemed to Zhu Yushen at this time that these words were undoubtedly very correct. When he was thinking about it, his mother came back with a basket of vegetables. Her mother seemed to be in a good mood. She poured the vegetables on the ground, and then
Chapter completed!
