Chapter Ninety-Five: Marriage Proposal
Next
Brother Tuesday pushed open the door with dark circles under his eyes, and when he looked like this, he knew that he hadn't slept well.
Of course, it's because of his father's words.
I told him in my heart that those words were true, and that it was possible.
But his brain told him that those words were not right, that they could not happen.
After a while, he thought about it, in his impression, the girl who smiled every time she brought something to others did not look like a person who hated the poor and loved the rich.
After a while, I thought that if it really happened, the village would be fifty miles away from the county seat.
He really can't guarantee that he will be able to send people to work on time every day.
Anyway, he was thinking like this there, and after a while his eyebrows were wrinkled again, and then his eyebrows were loosened again, and he really didn't sleep well this night.
Pushing open the door, he rubbed his aching eyes.
Looking at the dazzling sunlight outside, and the dead grass on the wall, revealing a patchy green at the root in the breeze.
There are also calves chasing each other with big yellow dogs in the yard.
In the two days when the cow was brought back, the big yellow dog barked at them, chasing them back and forth like a friend.
It wasn't until Rhubarb's three children woke up and ran out of the kennel to reinforce his mother, and the calf ran back to the cowshed to find his mother when he saw that he couldn't beat him.
These three chubby puppies were born in rhubarb in early winter, and have now grown to the height of adults' calves.
Yesterday, grandpa also said that he would pick the most powerful one and give it to his sister to help her take care of the home.
Second Brother Zhuang, who was standing outside and felt a little more refreshed, rubbed his face, picked up the stopper at the door, walked to the haystack next to the cowpen, and stuffed a trough of grass for the cow.
Since the cow was brought back, they were all taken care of by their brothers, and when they saw that someone had added grass to it, they barked at the people before bowing their heads to eat.
In the past, I often drove the ox cart of the brigade to the market, maybe because it was not my own, I didn't feel anything.
Now when I look at the cow that grazes with its head down, I feel that it is very rare, and I can't help but reach out and touch the two horns on its head.
He put down the stopper in his hand, picked up the broom next to the bullpen and swept up the yard.
Three puppies also joined in the fun, one holding his leg and two running back and forth with the broomstick.
After sweeping the yard, I glanced at the closed door of the eldest brother's house, and thought that the eldest brother should be back soon.
Because her sister-in-law was pregnant, her mother asked her eldest brother to accompany her sister-in-law back to her parents' house for a few days, and also asked him to help her mother-in-law's family do some work.
Sweep the yard and sweep the garbage into the box in the corner. I went to open the door of the chicken rack again, and the chickens, ducks and geese inside couldn't wait, and when they heard the sound of someone moving outside, they quacked inside, and now as soon as they opened the door, they rushed out.
As soon as they reached the courtyard, the geese first stretched out their wings and ran back and forth twice, and then stretched their muscles and retracted their wings, and patrolled their territory like a proud gentleman.
The duck nodded and greeted.
The little chickens walked to the cleaned yard, looked at the newly swept pebbles, and ate their stomachs one by one.
"Second son, it's time to eat. "This is the voice of Uncle Zhou shouting Tuesday Brother to eat.
"Hey, got it. Tuesday brother answered.
I walked under the window of my grandfather's house, and looked through the window at my grandfather, who had already gotten up and was sitting on the edge of the kang and smoking.
shouted: "Grandpa, it's time to eat!"
"Hey, I know!"
Grandpa spit out the smoke in his mouth, took the cigarette bag and pot and knocked twice on the edge of the kang, put it in his pocket and went out.
The farmer's breakfast must have dry food to fight hunger.
A bowl of pickles, a bowl of sauce is something that is always on the table every day.
Northeast people don't like to drink porridge, unless there are elderly people at home or there is not enough food to eat, or he would rather make some wild vegetable soup than drink porridge, and always feel that the porridge is a waste of food and not full.
There is only one exception, that is, cornmeal porridge, which is still learned from Shandong people, when I first started to drink, I always felt that it was not delicious, and I felt that it was very fragrant when I got used to it.
Today, Tuesday's breakfast at my brother's house is two boxes of steamed buns, cornmeal porridge, a stack of pickles and a bowl of sauce next to a few shallots.
Pick up two big bowls, sigh a bowl of snoring, sigh snoring another bowl, and then eat a few steamed buns with pickles, and the breakfast is over.
After breakfast, Aunt Zhou cleaned up in the house by herself.
When the three of them arrived in the yard, Uncle Zhou and Brother Tuesday entered the barn, brought out the two wooden plows that they had brought back from buying cattle and their own homes, and brought out all the tools used for farm work every year.
Grandpa Zhou sat in the yard basking in the sun and teasing the dog, and used his experience to direct Uncle Zhou and Brother Tuesday to repair these things.
In the first few years of steelmaking, some people even have kitchen knives with open teeth, although it is much better now, but this farm tool is an iron guy after all, and it is quite expensive. Take it out every year to repair it, grind it, and you can use it for another year.
If you want to say that this wooden plough has a tractor, why should it be repaired?
That's because at this time, the tractor brought the agricultural machinery, there are only wheat sowing boxes, no soybeans, every year soybeans are planted with oxen pulling a wooden plough to draw a ditch, followed by people to sprinkle in, and then followed by people to bury soil.
Last year, there were no cows, and the soybeans planted were made of ditches drawn by wooden plows pulled by people, which was particularly hard, and every spring after planting, people had to shed a layer of skin, and this time there were cows, and this year it was much lighter.
There are two flowers, one on each branch.
Let's also show Secretary Liu, who wants to protect the media.
Secretary Liu, who also had breakfast, came out of the house on a bicycle, carrying the money that Lao Zhou gave him yesterday in his pocket, and asked him to buy four boxes of gifts from the door.
On his way out of the village, he happened to pass by the gate of Lao Zhou's house, and when he passed, he saw the three of them repairing things in the courtyard, so he said hello and passed.
Secretary Liu rode over to nothing, but when Brother Tuesday heard him say hello, he looked up and looked up, and his heart was rootless, and he was holding a hammer to nail a nail into the pickaxe, and he smashed his hand at once.
smashed a big blood blister the size of a fingernail, and the pain was so painful that he grinned there silently, and he didn't dare to shout that it hurt, for fear that his father would hear the scolding and be useless.
Old Man Zhou, who was sitting on the side, saw it, and he didn't make a sound, he just laughed twice, thinking;
On Tuesday, my brother didn't even enter the house, just in the courtyard and on the avenue, swaying back and forth on both sides.
It was noon, and Secretary Liu didn't come back!
Huang was so angry that his mother shouted for dinner, and Secretary Liu hadn't come back yet!
This time, Brother Tuesday's heart was bottomless, and he went back to his house to lie down without eating a few bites of dinner.
He hadn't slept last night, but today he had been nervous for another day, and he fell asleep while lying down, so he also missed the person who brought him good news.
