Cui Xue died, everyone helped, and they sent her to the cemetery overnight to bury her.
Deng Mazi didn't have a funeral, and everyone didn't say anything.
After he came back, Deng Mazi still lived there for decades, and burned down the blood-stained house. He wanted to bid farewell to the past, change his face, start a new life, and raise his son well.
His house was like a ruin. If it burned, it would burn. No one felt sorry.
Then Deng Mazi rented a house in the village, and the father and son lived together.
New Year's Day, the beginning of a new year.
The snow that fell all night stopped, and the sun was shining brightly, which means that the new year will be sunny and sunny.
The children in the village ran from house to house to pay New Year greetings, and the laughter of children was everywhere.
Lao Sang's family gave generously, each red envelope was ten cents, and there were a few candies and a handful of peanuts and melon seeds, and there was an endless stream of visitors.
Deng Mazi also came over with his newborn son in his arms. The little guy was born in the early morning, and the first day of the new year will be his birthday.
Deng Mazi knelt down as soon as he entered the door, and everyone in Lao Sang's family frowned.
Wang Xinfeng said coldly: "Deng Mazi, it's Chinese New Year, I don't want to scold people for bad luck, get up and get out."
"Your life is cheap, and the life of a little brat who has worked so hard to survive is precious, and I can't stand your toss."
Yuzhi took out a slightly larger red envelope and stuffed it into the child's swaddle.
The swaddling baby was sponsored by Wang Xinfeng, and the mulberry mulberry leaf was used before.
The old ones are a bit old, but these days, many people don’t even have the old ones. This one is already very good and keeps warm.
The little guy who didn't get any good nutrition in the mother's womb is so small that a normal-sized swaddle can hold two of him.
The bruising has not disappeared yet, and the voice is so weak that it makes people feel distressed to look pitiful.
Fortunately, the little guy was covered tightly, so he shouldn't be frozen.
Yuzhi also persuaded: "Uncle Deng, take the New Year's red envelope for the child. It's cold, don't freeze the child, go back."
"If you have anything to do, talk about it another day. The child is just born and can't see the wind."
Deng Mazi avoided the red envelope and shook his head, "Niece, I don't want the red envelope. I'm here to ask for a way out."
"I know you love the child, I understand that, and I love him too, he is my life now."
"I don't want to mess around anymore, I want to raise my child well, and I want to give him a good future."
"I don't want him to go out in the future, and everyone will point to his nose and scold him, saying that his father is a mud that can't support the wall, and he is a piece of garbage that people hate like dogs."
"But I have no skills, and no one in the village is willing to help me. I know that this is my own fault, and I don't blame others."
"I came here just to beg you, for the sake of the children, help me, I am willing to do whatever I want, I just want to be a good father."
Deng Mazi's words were moving, and it could be seen that he was sincere.
Yu Zhi continued to stuff the red envelope with a smile, and said softly: "If Uncle Deng's determination has not changed and he has made some changes when the child is half a year old, he will come to the imperial capital to find us."
"Take the red envelope, the child has no mother, and the milk powder needs money. This is our little love for the child."
Deng Mazi was overjoyed and kowtowed abruptly before getting up: "Thank you, thank you, I will definitely do well."
"I really can't take the red envelope. I have already received it before, so I can't take it."
Yuzhi said: "It's okay, the previous one was a meeting gift, today's is a New Year's red envelope, the meaning is different, I hope the child is safe and healthy, and his life will be smooth."
Deng Mazi really needs money, he idles around all day and has no money at all.
Therefore, I didn’t work hard to make progress, and I was still doing nothing and sneaking around.
One penny is spent, one penny is spent, and one penny cannot be spent on the body.
The money for renting a house is still the red envelope money Yuzhi gave before.
Now the child needs milk powder and medicine, so he can’t earn money in a short time.
Received the red envelope with red eyes, choked up and said: "Thank you, thank you. In the future, our father and son will repay you by doing oxen and horses, thank you."
Yu Zhi smiled and watched Deng Mazi leave.
Wang Xinfeng sighed: "If I knew it now, why bother at the beginning, it's all self-inflicted."
Yuzhi smiled and leaned on the old lady's shoulder: "The prodigal son will not change his money when he returns. It is never too late to start life."
She also made mistakes and missed a lot, but fortunately everything is still there.
Therefore, Yuzhi is really happy for Deng Mazi to turn back when he lost his way.
No matter how far he can do it or how long he can last, but at this moment, she is very moved.
Mulberry, who walked around for a while, came back with a small face. He was impatient with these things, but Wang Xinfeng thought it was a good sign, so he must let him go.
The boy reluctantly ran around with Sang Ye's group of slugs, but he didn't take the red envelopes he got like the food, and Sang Ye snatched them all.
He didn't care, he came back after completing the task, and Sang Ye was still playing wildly outside with a group of friends.
Yu Zhi hugged the little boy, and couldn't help laughing.
"Stop reading, take a rest on the first day of the new year, go sit and chat with grandpa, master, grandpa."
"Okay." The boy nodded and walked slowly over. Whether he was happy, angry, or impatient, the boy's attitude would never change, and he was always so calm.
The first day of the new year is all about eating, drinking and having fun.
After all the New Year’s greeting children had left, Granny Zhou, Aunt Niu’s house, Li Jianshe’s house, the captain’s house, and several other wandering families all came to Lao Sang’s house.
Everyone was divided into two teams, one for men and one for women, sitting in the courtyard of Lao Sang's house and chatting.
Wang Xinfeng is also generous, providing tea and food.
Occasionally there are children running over to eat and drink, and the old lady doesn't care about it. This is rich and willful.
Women's team, just listen to Wang Xinfeng boasting about the landscape and characters of the imperial capital, and hear her say that she has seen movies, filming scenes, and celebrities.
A group of aunts and aunts didn’t even know what a movie is, what a star is, or what a filming is.
Wang Xinfeng made a serious face and talked more vigorously. He also talked about the schools in the imperial capital, the high-rise buildings in the imperial capital, the Forbidden City in the imperial capital, seeing the flag raising, the crowds, and the singing and dancing parties in the imperial capital.
Flag raising, the Forbidden City, etc. Rural women know something about it, but they feel that it is something far away from them, something they dare not even think about.
But Wang Xinfeng actually did it.
The admiration and envy at this moment are even worse than before.
The old lady wants to straighten her back, she is more handsome, and she can boast more vigorously.
The grand wedding of the Yungong family also became the talk of the old lady.
Aunt Niu heard that other people's wedding banquets were better than hers, and she was not jealous. She followed her old sister and praised her, regretting that she couldn't see her.
The little daughters-in-law and big girls present here were envious when they heard this, and regretted that they didn't have such a good life.
The new daughter-in-law of the Niu family, Ren Jiao, is considered to have the best wealth and background among all the people present.
I used to be proud of this, but after hearing the real big clan ostentation, her sense of superiority was wiped out, and her mentality became much more stable, and she no longer dared to be complacent.
It can also be considered a good thing, killing the unstable factors that affect family harmony in the cradle.
