In the evening, Aunt Zhu walked home with her head down, her face flushed.
In front of the door, her youngest son Yu Long was waiting for her, his face as tense as a curtain.
When Aunt Zhu saw Yu Long, she was stunned at first, then smiled awkwardly and whispered, "I'm back." But she didn't stop, but went straight into the house and into the room.

Yu Long lives more than ten miles away from his parents, and goes home to see his parents every once in a while. Seeing her mother's depressed appearance, she guessed that she must have lost money again, and she was very angry, so she followed into the room and blamed: "Mom, your two sons are not in good condition, why do you gamble every day?"
When Aunt Zhu heard this, her face immediately turned purple, she raised her head and glanced at Yu Long, then twisted her body and ignored him.
Seeing this, Yu Long walked out with interest, and said as he walked: "If you have nothing to do, go and chat with the neighbors, or help your father do something, don't gamble every day, we can't afford to support it." After saying that, Yu Long rode his bicycle away and went home.

Aunt Zhu is very much like a man, with her hands in her pockets, her shoulders towering, and she walks with three swaying steps. She rarely does housework and farm work, most of the time she gambles on the street, and if she runs out of money, she stands by and watches others gamble, and she usually does not go home until the sun sets.
Yu Long's father was loyal and honest, ploughed the fields and made cattle a good hand, and his temper was very good.
Whoever changed, when I met Aunt Zhu, I am afraid that I have fought 800 times.
But Yu Long's father thought about it and said, "If she is here, the child will have a mother." ”
Everyone in the village praised Aunt Zhu for her good fortune, and Aunt Zhu laughed when she heard it, presumably she thought so herself.

Later, Yu Long's brothers became a family, Aunt Zhu had no burden, and the two sons occasionally gave money, so they gambled more happily.
On weekdays, Aunt Zhu has won and lost, and the injury is not too big.
But recently, she has been in a hurry, and for ten days in a row, Aunt Zhu has lost, she is in a hurry to turn over the book, the more anxious she is, the more she loses, she is so anxious that her mouth is foaming, and when she sees Yu Long, she naturally doesn't want to speak.
The more Aunt Zhu thought about it, the more angry she became, the dice were sincerely against me, so she didn't want me to win? I have gambled all my life, this is the end of the gamble? Yu Long is right, his brothers are not good at mixing, how can they have so much money to gamble for me? If you don't gamble, it's not interesting to live, it's better to die.
Thinking about it like this, even Aunt Zhu herself was taken aback. Before that, she had never thought of suicide. But when he remembered what Yu Long said, he quickly strengthened this idea again.
The next day, Aunt Zhu went to the street again. This time, instead of gambling, she went to a stall and bought a pack of rat pills. Holding the rat medicine, she hurried home like a thief.
After returning home, Aunt Zhu fell on the bed and looked at the roof in a daze.
Yu Long's father came back from the field and was very puzzled, and asked her, "Why didn't you go gambling today?"
Aunt Zhu said weakly: "It's uncomfortable." ”
Yu Long's father was nervous when he heard this, and hurriedly walked to the bed and asked, "What's uncomfortable?"
When Aunt Zhu heard this, her eyes turned red, she pursed her lips a few times and said, "I want to drink soup." ”
Yu Long's father hurriedly agreed, and quickly left the room and went to the kitchen to cook egg soup.
Taking advantage of this gap, Aunt Zhu thought a lot.
Over the years, my wife has never disliked herself for being lazy, nor has she blamed herself for losing too much money, and she has been kind to herself, so she should be content, leave early, and let him enjoy a few years of happiness.
Thinking of this, two lines of clear tears rolled down.

After a while, Yu Long's father brought egg soup, and Aunt Zhu asked him to put it on the chair at the head of the bed, deliberately propped it away and said, "It's too hot, I'll drink it later, you go get busy." ”
Yu Long's father obediently walked out of the room, picked up his hoe, and went to the vegetable garden behind the house.
At this time, Aunt Zhu quickly sat up, combed her hair carefully, looked in the mirror, picked up the rat poison, quickly poured it into the soup, and stirred it with a spoon. After stirring well, she picked up the bowl, took one last look at the door, and her heart was crossed, and she raised her neck and drank a fine light.

When Yulong's father entered the room again, Aunt Zhu's body was already stiff, she was foaming at the mouth, rolling her terrible eyes, and she looked like she had eaten rat poison. Yu Long's father picked up Aunt Zhu and cried bitterly: "If you don't gamble, there is a problem, I should watch you......" Aunt Zhu's body shook violently in his arms, shaking.
Aunt Zhu died, and everyone in the village said that Yu Long was angry and killed his mother. Yu Long didn't defend himself, but he rarely returned to the village in the future.
