Chapter 119: The tension of the couple
Zhu Linglong wasn't sure if the second son deliberately mixed them with the pickles on top of the rice every day in front of herself and his uncle, so she didn't intervene in the conversation between their father and son. Anyway www.biquge.info eldest son has a good life today, which he earned by himself, not their eccentric eyes as parents, who gave all the money in the family to the eldest son, so that the eldest son could live better than the second son. No matter how the second son behaves as a demon, no one else can say anything about their old couple. After thinking about it, he did have a clear conscience, and he no longer cared what kind of life his second son lived.
She pinched the predecessor of the crispy soybean paste (that is, the boiled soybeans were covered with artemisia grass for a few days, green hairs grew, then dried and crushed, salted, cooled boiled water and stirred evenly, and then dried for a long time before it was an edible sauce. I can't remember what to say before I added salt and water to this sun-drying. He looked up and asked Liu Baiquan: "Have you found all the people who will work in the fields tomorrow?"
When Liu Baiquan heard Zhu Linglong ask him, he no longer continued to talk to his second son, but turned his head and replied to Zhu Linglong: "It's all found! Many people are looking forward to changing jobs with me, so that they can borrow cattle in the future! Say hello, you can come." ”
Liu Yuyin knew that his uncle would not only do his own field work tomorrow, but also the farm work of his eldest brother's family. When Zhang Mingfeng was scolding at home, he didn't listen to it happily, and now it is even more uncomfortable. He was right in front of him, and his uncle didn't ask if he wanted to find two people to help him.
Hey! When they met a son like Liu Yuyin, whose parents couldn't do anything right, it was Liu Baiquan and his wife who were unlucky. Fortunately, they have many children, and they don't have to rely on Liu Yuyin alone to support their old age, otherwise, their old age life is unimaginable.
However, no matter what, in the end, it was his own son, he was not doing well, and the old couple couldn't eat and drink spicy food at the eldest son's house with peace of mind. Liu Yujin looked at the uncle who had been smiling at the dinner table, and today he was drinking with his head bored, and he didn't let her taste the wine with the fragrance of grass. Look at my wife again, it is not as enjoyable as usual, and it feels a little listless. He thought the old couple had quarreled. He asked, "Uncle, Mom, where are you two arguing today?"
Zhu Linglong looked up inexplicably: "No!"
"Then why are you all unhappy?"
Zhu Linglong shook her head: "Hey! It's not Yu Yin's business! Today, at noon, he came to my door with pickles and rice to eat, deliberately making that poor and sour appearance." I didn't see the geese and ducks you gave him, and they all went to his mother-in-law's house, but he nibbled on dry pickles every day. Are you angry?"
Liu Yujin replied disapprenously: "Since he is willing to give meat to others to eat and eat pickles himself, why do you care so much! He is not a child." ”
Liu Baiquan put down the wine glass and shook his head: "It's not that we want to care about him, we just think that he has a family and has children, so he can't always live in such a muddle." ”
"But he himself is embarrassed, and he can't do it, and I don't know how to help each other. It's not like you've been in charge of it for the past two years, what's the use of worrying about it here?"
Liu Yujin is really disappointed in this second brother. Let him sell tea together, get hundreds of catties of tea after the rain from the mountains (this kind of tea is called coarse tea, very cheap, only four or five yuan a catty) back, carry the burden to run from various villages, ten yuan a catty for takeaway. What a good deal for half of the profits, but he was reluctant to live or die, saying that he was unwilling to deal with the people in the mountains. The second sister-in-law happily followed him up the mountain, brought back 300 catties of tea, and made a net profit of more than 1,400 yuan in a single season. Next year, I'm ready to get 500 catties of coarse tea to sell back, isn't this just a taste of sweetness!
I also had an idea with my second brother before, asking him to go to the county seat to fry chestnuts and sell them, he was ashamed, but some people were not ashamed. Liu Yuqiang is doing a good job now, and when it sells well at the end of the year, in addition to five yuan a day, there are two or three yuan as a reward. When it is difficult to sell on a hot day, he can still rest at home to escape the heat. Because he usually earns a lot of money and pays it to his family, it doesn't matter if he does the farm work at home or not, and his uncle, eldest brother, and second brother will not call him to go to the field together. The two sisters-in-law had no opinion on this, and treated him much better than before, because from time to time he would bring snacks to his nephews and nieces to eat, and the nephews and nieces were closer to him, an uncle who rarely spoke, than to his own uncle.
He also mentioned that when his second brother was idle on the farm, he also went to the lotus root field to dig lotus root, and he could earn four or five yuan a day for hard work, but he hated that the work was too tiring and the wages were too little!
Thinking of this, Liu Yujin shook his head, this second brother seems to be confused by the outside world when he was a soldier, and now he has some eyes and masters, and at the same time, he is a little arrogant in his eyes. It is estimated that the only things he likes in this place in the countryside are fishing, yellow eel fishing, and turtle touching (wearing water against the edge of the pond to touch the soft-shelled turtle hidden in the cave), which are not serious in the eyes of others.
Liu Yujin's eyes suddenly lit up: "Uncle, doesn't Yu Yin like fishing? It's a waste for us to keep these two ponds in Zhuangzi like this, and you ask Yu Yin if he is willing to contract these two ponds to raise fish? If he is afraid of losing money by selling fish, you tell him that I will help him sell them on his behalf when the time comes." In addition, I also heard that many people don't want the paddy field in the village, and they want to change it with someone. You ask Yu Yin if he is willing to raise water chestnuts (called puqiu in the dialect here), as long as the water chestnuts are fertilized for a few days, avoid other people's water, and usually let people water but not water. Again, if he is willing to plant or not sell, I will help him sell. I think it's a good deal to change the five-point field for one acre, and the income is higher than planting rice, which I think is cost-effective. You let the dick think about it!"
Liu Baiquan's heart was hot when he heard this, if the second son can stop doing it this time, and is willing to do what the eldest son said, in two or three years, life will definitely be able to live.
Because there are cattle at home, it is easy to change jobs, and Liu Baiquan takes care of it, Liu Yujin basically doesn't care about things in the farmland. But he is not easy, Guixiang and Minghua have reached the graduating class, and they have to make up classes at school during the summer vacation. The child was nervous, and he was also inexplicably nervous. Obviously, he didn't expect his child to be admitted to any university at the beginning, and he didn't know where to start, so he had such an extravagant hope in his heart. The child made up classes during the summer vacation, and he ran back and forth in a daze, but he didn't know what to do to help the children.
Wang Hongying was so nervous that Liu Yujin couldn't even sleep well, and she couldn't be annoyed, plus she was nervous and nervous because she was also affected by men. simply took Caoxiang to the county seat for a few days, made a special trip to take care of the two children, and handed over everything at home to her mother-in-law and Xingxiang to help manage.
