Chapter 19: A Busy Morning
The sky is slightly bright, the stars have not receded, and Aunt Guan, who is wrapped in small feet, is wearing a thin jacket with a white blue cloth placket, with patches on the east and west.
With her little feet upside down, she lifted the door curtain, came to the outhouse, squinted at the West House, and scolded: "Everyone thinks they are grandmothers."
I sleep until three o'clock in the morning every day, and I want to wait for the old lady to serve you, and look all over the tun to see whose daughter-in-law gets up later than the mother-in-law......"
In the west room of the main house, Guan Youfu, who was lying on the kang, woke up in the scolding, opened his eyes, glanced at his daughter-in-law who was sleeping like a dead pig, and stretched out his hand to push.
"Don't bother me, I'm sleepy. ”
Guan Youfu twisted it on her, gritted his teeth and said, "Don't go cook yet." ”
Liu Chunhua rolled to the side with her eyes closed, opened her mouth and scolded, "Xiaomei, you dead girl is not up quickly, what's the use of giving birth to you, it's better to give birth to a pig......"
Guan Xiaomei covered her head with the quilt, and then quickly got out of the quilt, put on a suit of clothes, opened the broken curtain, got off the kang and dragged her shoes out.
"The girls are up, are you still sleeping?"
Liu Chunhua was so frightened by the anger suppressed by her own man that she opened her eyes suddenly, and rolled her eyes at him sadly, "Why can't you get up?" ”
"Get out!"
When she slowly put on her clothes and pants and came to the outhouse, Guan Xiaomei had already taken a scoop of corn residue handed to her by Aunt Guan and cut up wild vegetables.
Aunt Guan's eye knives were thrown at her daughter-in-law one by one, "Why don't you hurry up?"
"Urging every day, urging life......" Liu Chunhua avoided her and ran to the stove, muttered a yawn, and pulled a stool to stay.
"What are you muttering, old man?"
Liu Chunhua was very thick-skinned, and turned a deaf ear to her mother-in-law's words, "Mother, be quiet, don't wake up everyone." ”
Aunt Guan glanced at her sharply, walked out of the door with her little feet upside down, walked to the back three rooms, and knocked on the paper-covered window under the window of her second son.
Zhao Qiuyue didn't wait for her mother-in-law to speak, and hurriedly replied, "Mother, the child's father has already gone to fetch water, and I will come immediately." ”
Aunt Guan's open mouth was closed, her nose let out a "hum", and she walked east along the root of the wall.
Since Guan Youshou replied to his second sister-in-law, he slipped on his shirt and pants, and at this moment he rushed to the yard at a very fast speed, and smiled at Aunt Guan who was about to raise her hand to knock on his window.
"What's the smirk, show your white teeth? Why don't you let your daughter-in-law come out, the work in the backyard is done? The work on the land kept by the family is finished? Your second brother knows how to fetch water in the morning, and you are all waiting for rice ...... you."
Guan Youshou shook his head speechlessly, turned around and entered the house.
It's really not a moment of rest, and I thought that I had already lost my temper by contributing more than three yuan last night, so I was saving and waiting.
He seemed to forget that before going to bed last night, he hid all the gifts sent by everyone in his house on the grounds that even outsiders knew that he came to care, and his family was embarrassed to snatch a little food from the child.
Aunt Guan is holding her breath.
In the east room, Guan Youshou patted his daughter and son who were about to get up, "You go back to sleep." ”
Guan Ping'an looked at him worriedly. I slept in a daze last night, and I could vaguely see that her father was either touching her head or tossing and turning all night.
This person didn't sleep well, and now he won't rest for a while, how can he have the energy to go to work late, how can his body eat well, and he eats poorly.
Thinking of this, as soon as his parents left, Guan Ping'an immediately got up and poked his fingers at the little face of his brother who fell asleep again.
Well, it was a good night's sleep. She simply got up quietly, put on her clothes and pants lightly, and then tiptoed to the main room.
I don't know who is snoring like thunder, one after another, as disturbing as last night's "squeak" of rats.
Guan Ping'an stood at the door of the outhouse and listened to the movement for a long time, but there was no voice from her mother, but the eldest aunt asked the second aunt to cook pig food.
Didn't they all say yes, one room for one day?
It can only be said that there must be something hateful about poor people.
Why didn't her second aunt smoke that girl's ear!
Guan Ping'an carried a pair of small hands on his back, shook his little head, and went to his own place at the foot of his own mountain with a regretful face.
The distance between the Guan family's self-reserve is not very far, and in the morning light, her grandfather, her father, and the hard-working second uncle are busy there.
It's that people have selfish intentions.
Even the shadows of the people on the nearby plots of land can see the truth.
Every household is busy finishing their own one-third of an acre of land before going to work, and then shaking it to the threshing floor to gather after drinking water porridge, and then shaking it to the threshing floor.
No wonder 365 days a year, 200 days a year, wild vegetables as life-saving food.
Guan Youshou saw his villain holding his little hand unhurriedly, pacing over slowly, and raised his hand with a smile and beckoned.
"Yo, my daughter is really diligent, why don't you sleep more?"
Guan Ping'an put down his hand when he heard this, and ran and jumped to his side, "Grandpa, the second uncle is early." Daddy, it's time to eat. ”
"Wait, I'll be here as soon as it's ready. ”
Guan Ping'an saw that he was about to turn over the ground, slipped to the side and squatted beside Ye Xiuhe, who was weeding, and grabbed and pulled with his little hand, fast and accurate, "Mother, you rest, I'll come." ”
Ye Xiuhe's buttocks moved, covering her daughter, squeezing her eyebrows at her, pointing at her father-in-law again, and lifting her chin to let her go to the side.
Guan Ping'an had no choice but to follow her orders. Her mother was afraid that she would work too neatly, and her grandfather would target her and ask her to work more.
A mother's heart is respectable, but will she spoil her children too much?
Just stood for a while, I don't know who started to fertilize, Guan Ping'an was so frightened that he hurriedly covered his nose, and looked around with a pair of big eyes.
Who, so lacking in virtue?
On the return trip, Ye Xiuhe hugged her daughter, and wanted to laugh when she thought of it. This girl doesn't know who to follow, everything is good, but she is too particular about playing small, and she is afraid of being buried.
Her father also said that his daughter must have been Miss Qianjin in her previous life, otherwise she would have known that she would cry when she was born and hum when she.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, she heard a voice before she reached the main room, and her good mood suddenly disappeared. Her pretending little brother-in-law finally showed up.
“...... Dressed in a crisp military uniform and with a pair of shiny leather boots on his feet...... The car is brand new army green, so long, so wide......"
Aunt Guan has been wrapped in little feet all her life, serving her master in the backyard when she was young, and she has been to the countryside to catch the market as far as she has since left, and she has never seen it.
"Is it really a military vehicle?"
Guan Youquan looked up at his arrogant head, and his eyes were facing the sky: "Of course, it was placed at the door of the commune, and I touched it." ”
Guan Ping'an looked at him thoughtfully, it turned out that this was her uncle, but I don't know when he came back last night, was the thunderous snoring sound in the morning him?
"None of our old men have ever touched a military vehicle. Ma Cuckoo looked up, and he was also honored, and his expression was eager to announce to the world: she is a man who can coax cattle.
Do you think you've sat on it, and it's worth showing off when you touch it?
Guan Ping'an looked at Guan Laosi with a look of adoration, clapped his little hands, and said with an exaggerated smile, "Wow, uncle, you are so powerful, why don't you sit in?"
Guan Xiaozhu, who was helping to set the dishes and chopsticks, immediately mended the knife: "It's already a big face to let the uncle touch it, and it is not allowed to smoke from the ancestors when you sit in." ”
This seems to be true, but I don't think it's right.
The arrogant head glanced at the two girls disdainfully, and let out a "hum" into the east room.
Guan Ping'an stared at her fourth aunt Ma Dujuan with a pair of big eyes, and asked with a puzzled expression, "Ah, why is the uncle angry." ”
"No, our uncle is hungry. ”
