Chapter 9 Like

Author: Linglongxiu

"My grandmother was also a child bride. She said that her sisters were either sold or given to other people as child brides.

When my grandmother came to the Zhou family, her parents no longer needed to sell their daughter, but her parents still sent her to the Zhou family as a child bride."

When Zhou Damei mentioned the past events of her mother's family, she had some deep feelings.

Her grandmother is considered a lucky person, but before getting married, she was very careful in her behavior in the Zhou family and never dared to relax even a little bit.

There were many child brides among the older generation in Shuangjing Town, and their initial lives were not very good. Of course, at that time, most families were not living well, so no one paid attention to them.

The old lady of the Liu family said that after she was brought to the Liu family by a middle-aged man, her life was better than at her parents' house. At least she didn't have to worry about starving to death.

But she would get up to work at dawn, and after dark, when the family was sleeping, she would have to clean up the yard. All year round, she did not dare to stop for a moment. She was always worried that if she disobeyed, she would be beaten to death by her parents-in-law, or driven away.

Got out.

Finally, she finally came of age. When the man was walking around outside, he fell in love with another woman.

At that time, she felt that the sky was falling. Fortunately, her parents-in-law insisted that the man marry her officially.

After the Yang family got married, she interacted a lot with the old lady of the Liu family, and she felt that the old lady of the Liu family was really filial to her parents-in-law. It was only later that I heard people talk about these old things.

"Auntie, I'm here." Shu Ling's voice came in.

Yang smiled at Zhou Damei and said, "The whole family loves her so much that she yells and screams at home. When we go out, we don't have to worry that she will be bullied outside."

Shu Ling has already arrived at the door of the room and is now preparing to climb the threshold.

Zhou Damei walked over and lifted her directly into the room.

"Mom, it's getting late, I'm going to prepare lunch."

The old man of the Shu family came back, and only then did Yang and his grandson Shu Ling come out of the room.

For Chinese meals in the Shu family, the old man of the Shu family usually eats in the room. At most, Shu Ling comes into the room with a big bowl to eat with him.

Shu Ling was happy to have dinner with the old man of the Shu family, so that she could have an extra piece of meat.

Naturally, Brother Shu Dati will not come back for lunch at noon, and brothers Shu Xianfang will not go home for lunch when they get older.

Shu Ling's younger brother, Shu Xianqi, has not gone to school in the spring. Originally, he would have dinner at home at noon.

Just a few days ago, I was taken home by my uncle from the Gao family to stay for a few days.

In the past two days, when Shu Ling was eating, she still muttered several words from him, thinking that she wanted her brother to come back quickly so that he could take her out to play together.

Gao Xiaorui was originally worried that her younger son would take her younger daughter out, so she learned that her elder brother was taking her younger son back to stay for a few days.

In the past two days, she listened to Shu Ling's words and sent someone to send a letter home, asking her parents' family to keep her little son for a few more days. When Shu Ling passed this test well, the couple would go back to her parents' house to pick up the child.

Shu Ling chanted this in front of Gao Xiaorui several times. After seeing her mother ignore her, she went to Yang family and chanted: "Zu, I miss my brother."

Yang naturally agreed with Gao Xiaorui's actions. Now he listened to his granddaughter and casually said, "Okay, your little brother misses you too."

"Zu, take brother back." Shu Ling asked directly. She knew in her heart that as long as her grandmother spoke, her mother would definitely obey.

"Oh, Ling'er, grandma's arms and legs are feeling uncomfortable. Can you give her a squeeze?"

Shu Ling quickly followed Yang's instructions, squeezed her arms, and pressed her legs hard, then asked with a red face and a smile: "Zu, are you okay?"

Yang stood up with a face full of joy, kicked her legs, stretched her arms, and praised: "I feel comfortable. My Ling'er is so capable. With just a little push, my grandma is all healed."

"Zu, let's go and pick up my brother."

Shu Ling directly grabbed Yang's hand and went to the Gao family to pick her up.

Seeing that her granddaughter was still obsessed with picking up her brother, Mrs. Yang could only sincerely say to Shu Ling: "Ling'er, your grandfather and grandmother miss your brother. Please let your brother stay with them for a few more days."

"Zu, they don't want Qiya." Shu Ling looked up at Yang in curiosity.

Yang family choked up suddenly, the Gao family would naturally pay attention to their grandson.

My third son entered the Ministry of Industry. Although he was not a very capable person, he at least had some official connections.

A family like the Gao family is willing to get close to their grandson because they also want the two of them to stay together for a long time.

Their feelings for their granddaughter are as light as water. Unless the granddaughter is really cute and sensible when she grows up, they really won't miss her.

There are more than ten granddaughters in the Gao family. They have no shortage of granddaughters to love them, so how can they love other people's children?

Yangshi would not tell Shu Ling about this reality. She could only say with a smile: "You are too young. When you grow up, your grandparents will definitely take you home and stay with you for a few days."

Shu Ling nodded happily and counted with her little fingers, "One, two, three."

She could only count three numbers, so she kept counting. When some numbers were unclear, she said to Yang: "Wait for my brother to come and teach me how to count on my fingers."

As long as Mrs. Yang's granddaughter doesn't hesitate to pick up her grandson, she is willing to agree to anything.

She quickly found an excuse and asked her granddaughter to accompany her to the backyard to look at the vegetable patch. She also told her: "When this batch of vegetables is ready, your brother will definitely come home."

Their grandparents and grandchildren were going to see the vegetable fields. Gao Xiaorui happened to come out of her yard holding a cloth. After seeing their grandparents and grandchildren, she quickly accompanied them to see the vegetable fields.

The Shu family only has a small vegetable plot. When the old man of the Shu family has free time, he will also pay attention to the vegetables in his own vegetable plot. With a family looking after him, the vegetables in the vegetable plot will naturally grow green.

Shu Ling walked over and saw the vegetable worms on the vegetable leaves at first sight. She pinched them with her two little fingers and buried the insect corpses directly in the soil. She pressed the soil with both hands and then looked back at Xiang Yang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law: "No more."

Mrs. Yang smiled and praised: "Ling'er is so capable. When the vegetables grow up, I will ask your aunt to cook meat for them."

Gao Xiaorui took a few breaths, and after listening to Yang's words, she could only smile but said: "Ling'er, let's go, I'll take you to wash your hands."

Mrs. Yang looked at the look on her daughter-in-law's face and felt that she was too particular. Her little granddaughter had such a good temper. She acted openly and generously and never pretended to be coy.

Gao Xiaorui took Shu Ling to the front yard to wash her hands and asked, "Ling'er, aren't you afraid of bugs?"

"Not afraid, mother, are you afraid?"

Although Gao Xiaorui said she was not afraid, she always avoided these things whenever she could.

When Shu Ling's two sisters were young, they were not as fearless as Shu Ling. They were children who were afraid of insects.

After Shu Ling ran away quickly, Gao Xiaorui couldn't help but said to Zhou Damei: "Sister-in-law, who do you think Linger's temperament is like?"

"She looks like the third child. Her uncle told me that the third child had this kind of temperament when he was a child. He was very lovable. They didn't dare to talk to the eldest grandson. The third child even became good friends with the eldest grandson."
