reborn in childhood

Chapter 24

There was a big mulberry tree not far from Niu Lele's house. When Mu Mian and Doudou walked nearby, a short woman was bending over and digging the soil, as if she was digging the roots of the mulberry tree.

The woman was very thin, she didn't wear shoes on her feet, her clothes were worn out and old, and the style was still that of an old lady, her trousers were pulled up above her knees, and there were deep and shallow bands on her calves except for some dry and wet mud. There are scars and ugly marks, like old bark.

Doudou exclaimed, he had never seen such a person before, and curiously grabbed Mu Mian's arm to show her.

Mu Mian couldn't see the woman's face, but, except Sha Tao, she couldn't imagine anyone else who would leave such unsightly legs because of working desperately.

Mu Mian knew Sha Tao, and remembered her messy ponytail and her always loose clothes. When they went to the ground with their second aunt, they often saw Sha Tao, a little girl who was not tall and not very strong, but boldly took care of her. There are five people in the family, and many men can’t compare with her. She has a single-minded mind, and she doesn’t slack off when she works. Carry it back in the patched sheet.

Everyone said that although Niu Qian married a stupid daughter-in-law, it was much better than marrying a smart man. Except for the stupid son he gave birth to, everything else was good. Fuck, being served like an old man, but this situation didn't last long.

Because since Niu Lele's death, Sha Tao has become even more stupid. She can hardly speak, and she just smirks when she meets people, and she is getting more and more stupid, forgetful, and often does wrong things in a mess. salt, forgot to put rice in the porridge; there was no cold water in the footwashing water for the cow, so hot that he screamed for several yards; carried his daughter to herd the sheep, but the sheep was brought back, but the daughter was lost. It was the three-year-old girl who walked back by herself; the most serious time was when she burned the kitchen at home while cooking. For this reason, Niuqian beat her severely with a cane and locked her up. I went to the pigsty and starved for two days.

But things backfired, no matter how her family beat and scolded, Sha Tao was still unstoppably stupid, and was called Silly Tao Iesti by a few children who had learned English. Having named her by her name for many years, she instinctively raised her head and giggled at them, so the children shouted even more happily.

Later, Sha Tao's forgetfulness became more and more serious. She forgot that her daughter forgot to eat, forgot to go home, and even forgot to avoid cars when crossing the road. Then, it was very simple. My life was lost just like that.

There was a car accident on the road at the entrance of the village, everyone would go to watch the excitement, and Mu Mian also went that day, but she didn't go to see the excitement, she wanted to see Silly Tao, who loved children as much as her mother but died in the car accident poor woman.

The driver fled a long time ago, leaving Sha Tao's body lying there in a horrible way, blood flowed all over the ground, thick and bright red, the cloth sheet that she hardly left her hand when she was alive was knocked far away, scattered scattered, looking Come on, Sha Tao didn’t forget to work even though she was so stupid, Mu Mian didn’t dare to look at her, she was afraid that if she looked at her more, she would think more deeply of her grandma’s mother who was stiff and spreading corpse spots, Mu Mian stiffened her neck and straightened her Looking at the pile of firewood, he inadvertently saw a rusty pencil case. It turned out that there was also her silly son who was not forgotten by Sha Tao.

That night, Mu Mian hid under the quilt and cried for a long time. She didn't know why she was crying, but she kept crying and crying, as if she couldn't live without shedding the tears she should shed.

If Mu Mian had some bottom lines for helping Niu Lele in the past, then at the moment when she saw Sha Tao, all of Mu Mian's bottom lines are gone. Maybe she will be selfish and ruthless to others, but she is willing to do her best in her life. Do whatever you can to help Niu Lele.

Maybe, God gave her a chance to be reborn just to let her live a good life. God let her meet Niu Lele, just to give him a good chance to live. She and Niu Lele, one is timid, the other is stupid, but because some people love others If they don't care, they should live well in this world and live happier than anyone else.

Mu Mian withdrew her thoughts and told Doudou very seriously that this is Niu Lele's mother named Tao. When Doudou heard that she was his good friend's mother, she immediately didn't care whether her legs were scary or not, and was very happy. Called auntie, Sha Tao ignored and continued digging.

Mu Mian followed Doudou and asked again: "Auntie, are you okay?"

Sha Tao didn’t know that someone was calling her at first, but in her impression, no one seemed to want to talk to her, everyone just laughed at her, and she just had to cooperate with her smirk, until Mu Mian stopped next to her wearing rubber shoes and asked again Only then did she turn around in confusion, and whispered, "I'm not called Auntie, I'm Sha Tao."

After finishing speaking, she took the iron rake and continued to dig the soil. When Doudou was scolding Niu Lele, he heard that his mother was not clear-headed. He only knew it when he saw Sha Tao. To say that people are stupid is just a matter of words , but that person is so stupid that he will live a lifetime of pain, so he is even more stubborn in thinking that Niu Lele is not stupid, and Lele will not be like a silly peach.

He took out some of the bought candies and handed them to Sha Tao, asking, "Is Lele at home? What are you doing digging up the roots of the mulberry tree?"

Silly peach knows candy. She was curious once. After the child ate the candy, she picked up the candy paper and licked it. It was sweet and delicious, but no one had ever bought it for her. She froze for a while, then put her hand on the Rubbing hard on the trousers on her thighs, she took them and put them in her pocket. Perhaps Doudou didn't laugh at her or scold her, making her think she was a good person. She covered her mouth with her index finger and let out a low hiss. Carefully said: "Lele is asleep, I will boil some mulberry root water for him, and he will wake up after drinking it."

Something happened to Lele?
Silly Tao can't do anything here alone, so Mu Mian and Doudou walked quickly at the same time. When they arrived at Niu Lele's house, his grandma was wandering in front of the kitchen pot, with the chopsticks in her hand dangling with pebbles. So, she murmured, telling the lonely ghost who bullied her grandson to go away.

Niu Qian sat at the door of the main room in a bad mood, and was very surprised to see someone looking for his son. His silly son actually had a good classmate?
But don't hit the smiling person, now his son is not dead, his wife is not stupid, his temper has not turned bad, so he won't drive Mu Mian and Doudou out, first ask them which family they belong to, and then laugh haha He put away the crutches lying in front of the door and let them in to see Niu Lele. He was wondering there alone. It was thunderous, no one of the same age in the two villages could beat him, but how could that barbarian give birth to such a soft girl?
Sha Tao would not plan mulberry roots for his son for no reason. Although Mu Mian had already guessed that Niu Lele was ill, she was still shocked when she saw him. The burning was cracking open, and Doudou yelled several times before he opened his eyes, drowsily shouting thirsty, and shouting hot again after a while, if this continues, there must be a burning problem!

"Uncle, Lele is very sick and should be sent to the hospital!"

No matter how stupid the son is, he is still his son. Sometimes he can't see the eye and will beat him a few times. Now Niu Lele is seriously ill, so Niu Qian is not worried, but his father died long ago, and her mother only knows how to worship God. Daughter-in-law is also useless, there are hardships in front of the cow, and complaints have long been in her heart, and she complains to them in distress, regardless of whether the person in front of her is a child or not.

"Send it, why didn't I send it, my legs and feet are inconvenient, his mother and his grandma carried him to the clinic, got an injection and took the medicine before carrying him back, but that shit doctor is purely cheating money. No, Lele burned even worse after taking his medicine. I dare not send my son there again, not to mention wasting money. He is doing well, I must give him a good publicity, let everyone know who he is."

Niu Qian became more and more angry as he talked, and knocked his crutch on the threshold, as if it was the quack doctor's head, and his son would be healed if he knocked on it.

Mu Mian hurried over to help his arm, and persuaded him, "Uncle, it's not that the doctor's medicine doesn't work, it's that Lele's disease is too severe. The last time I was sick, Lele's fever was worse than Lele's, but I'll die. It took several days of hanging water to subside the fever."

Niu Qian glared, thinking that a hero saw the same thing and said, "What? Hanged on the water? How long will it take to heal? Let me just say, he is a quack doctor!"

"Uncle, no matter how capable he is, at least he will cure me. We will also send Lele to hang water, and Lele will definitely recover."

Niu Qian waved his hands again and again, so he didn't send his son to a quack doctor. His mother said that Lele was possessed by the dead old man next door, and he would be fine in a few days.

Doudou was anxious for a long time, jumped up angrily, and scolded him: "Are you still a father? I have never seen you so cruel, your son is so sick, you are still sitting here, If something happens to him, you are the murderer!"

Niu Qian had no good temper, and he was never soft when beating his wife and children. When the children pointed at his nose and scolded him, he angrily drove Doudou out with his crutches.

Mu Mian wanted to stop her, but was almost accidentally injured. Lele's grandma was so focused on exorcising ghosts in the kitchen that she didn't come out to persuade her. She didn't calm down until Doudou was driven out of the yard, and Mu Mian had a chance to say: "Uncle Niu , you have misunderstood my brother, he is feeling sorry for Lele!"

Niuqian was also tired, and a lot of mud was stepped on his shoes. He sat down panting, scraped off the mud with a shovel, and asked angrily, "What's the pity?"

snort!If you dare to laugh at my son, I will catch up with you!

Mu Mian guessed that Niuqian should still pay attention to Lele's study, otherwise she would not ask the school to let him upgrade, she tentatively said: "Lele has improved a lot these days, even our teacher praised him, saying that he Much smarter than before."

"Really?"

Thinking of Teacher Zhu's words, Mu Mian felt sore, but still laughed, and said, "Really, I dare not tell the teacher's nonsense, but it's a pity for Doudou. You are getting smarter, but my dad said that if a child has a fever for a long time, his brain will be burnt out, so what should I do?"

It's not that Niuqian is willing to believe in children, he believes that such a young child can't make up such a smooth lie, can his son really become smart?
Niu Qian didn't speak, rubbing his hands repeatedly, Mu Mian was flustered by his sizing up, and tried to pretend to be innocent. Finally, Niu Qian stamped his feet and finally agreed to send Lele to the clinic. son.

Although Shatao is stupid, she is very obedient. She carried her son on her back and left, talking to him vaguely. I didn't really believe in that clinic, but I didn't dare to give up this hope. I helped my limping son and followed behind with difficulty.

Niuqian's leg disease was very serious. He struggled to walk every step. He also fell several times during the process. The distance between his son was getting farther and farther, but he never gave up. When Lele's drip dripped a third, he finally arrived, his head was sweating and his body was covered in mud.

He has always been sensitive, afraid of being laughed at, and remembering the useless injections last time, he suddenly vented his anger to the doctor, looked at him with unfriendly eyes, Mu Mian looked wrong, and immediately found him a wooden bench for him He sat down and rushed to the front and said: "Uncle, you really love Lele. You insist on going to see a doctor with him. Lele will be very happy when he wakes up. He will be filial to you when he is capable in the future."

Niu Qian smiled shyly for the first time, and was embarrassed to scold him again, but he still stared at the doctor and warned him not to use fake medicines. Dr. Mu is from the village of Jinhe. .

Grandma Lele stood aside, wiped her tears with her sleeves without mud, and said, "If Lele can really get better, then thank God. During the Chinese New Year, I will kill a sheep and worship God!"

After all this back and forth, Mu Mian and Doudou were late for school, and it was their luck. If it was the math teacher's class, they said they would visit their sick classmates, and they might make a good impression, but unfortunately, this time The first day was the head teacher's Chinese class. Not only were Mu Mian and Doudou late, but Zhu Yurong and the principal Niu Lele were the students who went to see them.
If Niu Qian knew that he had lied to him, he would never let Lele have contact with them in the future, and how could Lele be fired?Mu Mian looked at Teacher Zhu's face and carefully said a few words for him.

Zhu Yurong was still angry, closed the pen in his hand, threw it on the table angrily, and said, "Why are you telling me this? You should go home and tell your grandma, isn't she very capable? You let her Notify the Education Bureau and give me an order?"

The last time it was because of the principal, Doudou, that he was not expelled by the head teacher. Xinxin had long regarded him as a rescuer, and went to him after class. The principal who rushed over heard this, sighed, and turned back to his office. However, He secretly made a decision in his heart.
