After my eldest brother died, my nephew became my son, and he was only three years old that year
Jiang Qin, who was busy with dinner, was suddenly called out by a neighbor, "Come out quickly and take care of your mother-in-law, your eldest brother is gone." ”
Jiang Qin heard it in a fog, but the neighbor had already hurried out. She didn't care about continuing to stir-fry, and walked out with a big belly. I saw my mother-in-law crying at the door of my sister-in-law's house, "Oh my God, how can you let us live!."”
A group of people gathered in front of my sister-in-law's house.
Jiang Qin walked over and learned that the eldest brother had been in a car accident, and her husband Zhao An and several neighbors were busy dealing with the aftermath. When Jiang Qin felt embarrassed, someone helped her sister-in-law Wang Man to come over, and her sister-in-law had already collapsed like mud, and the little nephew who was being held cried and cried for her father.
This kind of bleak scene has been unforgettable for Jiang Qin for many years.
After the eldest brother was buried, the home became silent and terrifying. The mother-in-law was silent, and even the nephew Dongdong quieted down.
Especially my sister-in-law, the whole person seems to have become a fool.
For the first time, Jiang Qin felt that her sister-in-law was very pitiful.
Originally, Jiang Qin and her sister-in-law were separated. In a house, two brothers occupy one end each, and the mother-in-law lives with the sister-in-law while helping them with the children.
But now, her sister-in-law's family has suffered misfortune, and Jiang Qin has to let go of her past grievances and go to take care of her sister-in-law's family with a big belly. She decided to wait for her sister-in-law ** before thinking about her future plans.
My sister-in-law really suffered misfortune this time.
The eldest brother was pulling a cart of pigs that time, because the road conditions were not good because of the rain, the owner suggested that he take a detour, but he preferred to take a shortcut, and the vehicle slid down the cliff. The car crashed and people died, and so did the pigs. Moreover, the car was not insured, and the owner demanded compensation from the family. Although the owner of the goods was also for his livelihood, he had to let them go when he saw his family's livelihood collapse overnight.
Both the mother-in-law and sister-in-law were eclipsed.
In the past, Jiang Qin had thought that if her sister-in-law met with misfortune, she might feel schadenfreude. However, when the real disaster was in front of her, she did not feel a little happy.
When Jiang Qin married Zhao An, Jiang's mother was against it. Not because Zhao An is a stammer, but because the birthmark on the left side of Jiang Qin's own face has a great impact on her appearance. There is a saying in the countryside called "a cloak with a rotten cloak", which means that his own affairs are the clearest, not to mention that Zhao An is just a bricklayer.
Another reason for Jiang's mother's opposition is that Zhao An also has an older brother, and the elder brother's financial situation is much better than that of his younger brother Zhao An. Sister-in-law Wang Man is the focus of the village, and after giving birth to a child, she has a little more ** style, which makes people feel more beautiful. There is also a saying in the countryside: "Brothers are poor, and they are poor." "People are more snobbish, even if they are their own sons, their parents often bow down to them. Jiang Qin married Zhao An, no matter what, she can't compare to her brother and sister-in-law, can her life be so good?
Jiang's mother said to her daughter that even if she finds a man with worse conditions, as long as he is the only child in the family, it is easier than marrying Zhao An. Jiang Qin didn't think so. She felt that she couldn't find a better man in such conditions. Marrying a man with a craft is at least better than simply farming. Moreover, after getting married, I don't live with my brother and sister-in-law, so why compare it with others?
Jiang is really scheming. After Jiang Qin passed the door, she realized that her mother's worries were justified.
The sister-in-law flaunts her superiority everywhere, and the mother-in-law is also obviously partial to her. The sister-in-law bought a new dress, and Jiang Qin praised her for looking good. The sister-in-law said that she should also buy one, but Jiang Qin said that it was not suitable for her to wear by herself. The sister-in-law smiled, with malice in her smile, and Jiang Qin could feel it. The sister-in-law is very good at seeing Jiang Qin's intentions. If Jiang Qin bought a beautiful dress, her sister-in-law would definitely buy one and compare Jiang Qin to her.
And the mother-in-law. During the Chinese New Year, they had a reunion dinner together, and the sister-in-law said that she would take the children and hand over the kitchen to Jiang Qin. Jiang Qin was busy preparing the food and serving it to the table, and her mother-in-law served vegetables for her grandson for a while, and for her sister-in-law for a while. At first, Jiang Qin thought that her mother-in-law would pick up vegetables for her, so she stretched out the bowl, but she was lonely. The sister-in-law smiled even more happily, "Mom, you can eat it yourself." It didn't seem like it was enough, she added, "Jiang Qin, you've been busy for so long in a day, eat more." ”
The whole Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is like a palace fighting drama.
Zhao An also realized that his wife was very wronged, but he couldn't say anything when he stammered.
Unless it is very necessary, Jiang Qin tries to avoid her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, why should she be unhappy?
Big brother suddenly had an accident.
Looking at the pitiful appearance of her sister-in-law, it is not a deep hatred, and Jiang Qin cannot hold a grudge. She tried her best to help those who could, after all, they were also a family.
After her sister-in-law's mood stabilized, Jiang Qin returned to her house to cook.
One day, my sister-in-law ran away from home.
She left a note saying that life was too unbearable for her to go on and decided to go out.
It is her freedom for her sister-in-law to choose to go on a rampage, but the question is why doesn't she arrange for her three-year-old sonJiang Qin was angry about this, and her sister-in-law didn't want her own son in order not to increase her burden. She didn't even take into account that her mother-in-law could no longer support herself, let alone take care of her eldest grandson.
This problem was obviously left to Jiang Qin's family, which made Jiang Qin grit his teeth with hatred.
Jiang Qin, what should I do?The mother-in-law asked helplessly.
Jiang Qin touched her stomach, "I'm about to give birth, I really can't do anything." Either you take him with you or send him to his grandmother's house. ”
The mother-in-law looked at Jiang Qin and stopped talking.
Not surprisingly, Dongdong had no one to ask for it, and his grandmother's family did not want to adopt him. To be precise, Dongdong's aunt is unwilling, grandmother, like grandmother, relies on her son to support her, where can she have the ability to support her grandson?
Looking at her mother-in-law sighing, Jiang Qin was both funny and angry, she was so old alone, and she was still so naïve: Why didn't Dongdong send it away earlier?No matter how ruthless you are, didn't your sister-in-law send it to his house earlier?Besides, no matter how ruthless she is, after all, it is the flesh and blood that fell from her.
Dongdong's aunt will definitely not take him in, her family already has two children, and adopting another one will be even heavier. She said, "Your Zhao family's grandson, our Wang family can't control it" and let her mother-in-law come back.
Jiang Qin had long known that she couldn't shirk the responsibility of taking care of Dongdong, but she couldn't be too anxious. Now it is the mother-in-law who asks for help from her, and she must make the mother-in-law bow her head a little so that she can really take the initiative later. Too quickly will make the mother-in-law take this for granted, and may even think that Jiang Qin needs Dongdong. In fact, Jiang Qin doesn't need Dongdong. After the eldest brother left, Jiang Qin felt a sense of pity for Dongdong and cared more about him. The child is very smart and can feel who really cares about him, and the relationship between Dongdong and Jiang Qin has become very close.
After her mother-in-law encountered problems at her grandmother's house in Dongdong, she completely changed her attitude and became obedient to Jiang Qin's arrangement.
Dongdong naturally became a member of the Jiang Qin family.
Over the years, the life of Jiang Qin's family has not been easy.
When Jiang Qin's son Dongdong was ten years old, her own son was also nearly seven years old. Both sons are growing up, and the cost of living is naturally increasing. At the same time, the mother-in-law suffered from a disease with a prolonged cough accompanied by back pain. After a thorough examination, the diagnosis at the major hospital was lung cancer.
The mother-in-law insisted on not **, perhaps because she understood that Jiang Qin's family was not wealthy, and she didn't want to spend ** expenses. Taking advantage of Jiang Qin's inattention, she took pesticides on her own.
Jiang Qin felt very sad. Although her mother-in-law was not kind to her at first, over the years, her mother-in-law has helped take care of her two children, which can actually be regarded as a great achievement.
The sister-in-law seems to have evaporated from the world, and after so many years, her own son has not appeared in her life.
Of course, there is a bright side to this.
Dongdong seems to have forgotten his life experience, and even directly called Jiang Qin "Mom".
Life passed unconsciously, Dongdong went to high school, and his younger brother was already in junior high school.
Dongdong showed an excellent talent for painting, and his teacher suggested that he study Xi art major. This made Jiang Qin feel embarrassed, she wanted to fight for a better future for Dongdong, but studying Xi art requires a lot of money, and even if she is admitted to university, the tuition fee of art schools is quite expensive.
Jiang Qin could only weigh it cautiously, after all, she had to support two sons at the same time.
The only constant in this world is that it is changing too fast. Over the years, the village has gradually begun to use glazed tiles, and Zhao An, a bricklayer who used to pick up leaks, has gradually lost his job. Jiang Qin has seen a professional team cover glazed tiles, and their performance is comparable to an acrobatic performance. Zhao An also tried to learn Xi to build glazed tiles, but he was Xi used to the traditional bricklayer's craftsmanship, and finally could not integrate into the professional team, so he had to give up.
Zhao An had to work as a traditional bricklayer while doing odd jobs on construction sites, and with the income from Jiang Qin's farming, he was barely able to make ends meet, but it was a bit stretched to provide for his two children to go to school. In particular, Dongdong has to study art, which makes life more difficult.
As the registration deadline approached, Dongdong didn't say a word, as if he didn't care about it. Jiang Qin was very anxious, Dongdong's silence did not mean that he did not want to go to school, but more likely that he was worried about increasing the burden on his family.
A heavy burden indeed.
Just when Jiang Qin was in a dilemma, her sister-in-law suddenly came back.
If it weren't for her sister-in-law reporting to the house in person, Jiang Qin would almost have thought that a movie star was going to film in the village. My sister-in-law is so beautiful, I feel like I'm blinded by the beauty in front of me. It seems that my sister-in-law has really made a lot of money from her wandering outside over the years.
Before Jiang Qin asked, her sister-in-law took the initiative to say that she had opened a Chinese medicine massage hall in Shenzhen. My sister-in-law's grandfather is a Chinese medicine practitioner, and she learned some Chinese medicine knowledge from her grandfather, but she didn't expect it to come in handy this time.
The sister-in-law came to recognize her son. She said she married a wealthy man in Shenzhen, who invested in her to open a health center. The man's son and ex-wife are abroad and are reluctant to return. The man wanted her to have another child, but considering that the man was older, she didn't want to take the risk, so she planned to take Dongdong over.
It's ridiculous.
Jiang Qin refused without hesitation, "What do you think of your son?"If you want it, you can throw it if you want it”
The sister-in-law was not angry, "Thank you for taking care of him for me all these years, this is 300,000, if it is enough, I will add more." ”
I don't sell my son. Jiang Qin was angry.
Think about it yourself, if nothing else, you have to think about your two sons. With that, the sister-in-law put the bank card on the table and twisted her graceful figure away. After a while, she turned back and said, "I'll come back to you the day before the registration deadline." ”
It seems that the sister-in-law knows the situation well.
Although it is undeniable that there are some **, Jiang Qin is really reluctant to let Dongdong leave. She was entangled again, so she discussed it with Zhao An. Zhao An said, "...... it."You ...... whatever you wantI ......I think it's ......Both, all of them. ”
After saying these words, Zhao An's cheeks turned red.
Doesn't that mean you didn't ask?
Forget it, let Dongdong decide for himself.
Although it was said that it was up to Dongdong to decide, Jiang Qin knew in her heart that Dongdong would definitely not leave her mother. Over the years, whenever someone mentioned his in front of him, he would immediately get angry. As time went on, the matter was never talked about again. The daughters-in-law who newly married into the village didn't even know that Dongdong was not born to Jiang Qin.
Jiang Qin felt that Dongdong made her own decisions, and she would be more at ease in the future.
As soon as Dongdong returned home, Jiang Qin told him what had happened.
Okay, let's go. Dongdong's calm made Jiang Qin's heart set off turbulent waves.
Dongdong noticed the change in Jiang Qin's face, "Mom, do you think I'm like a white eye?"”
No, no, no, your own mother's conditions are indeed much better. Jiang Qin tried to hide the panic in her heart.
Mom, I know you can't bear me, let me tell you why I want to go with her. Even if I don't leave, I'll have to go to college in two years, right?And then work, after all, will leave you. Leaving now, it's just two years ahead of schedule, in this way, 300,000 is enough for my younger brother to study, isn't your pressure much lighter?After I leave, they can't hang my feet, I'm so old, winter and summer vacations, I don't want to go back like this. I did the math, we don't suffer, so why don't we bet this anger with her?”
Tears slid down her cheeks, and Jiang Qin hugged her son tightly.
Nowadays, communication technology is really very developed, and as long as Dongdong is free, he will have a best call with Jiang Qin. In order to avoid affecting the Xi of learning, Jiang Qin reproached: "It's okay, why do you keep beating **?"”
I'm not afraid you'll miss me. "Coquettish.
As time passed, Jiang Qin originally wanted to return the bank card to her sister-in-law, but Dongdong disagreed, "If you want it, why not?"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know if I was in this world, where would she go to find her son?”
Fortunately, Dongdong insisted on leaving the bank card. Because his youngest son's English performance has not been satisfactory, with money, Jiang Qin hired a personal tutor for him. I can't let my son suffer anymore, study hard and Xi, don't live so hard like their parents.
Smooth days always pass quickly, Jiang Qin is now looking forward to the New Year, looking forward to the winter vacation, the eldest son will be able to come back.
Jiang Qin has no resentment towards her sister-in-law.
In fact, there is nothing to hate at all, everyone's life is gradually getting better, and life should be moving in a positive direction.
