Chapter 32: In-laws
Several people were chatting, and in the direction of the southwest mountain at the end of the village, Hu Xiujuan took her three stepdaughters, each carrying a bundle of discards, and walked slowly with her head down.
As soon as the mother and daughter approached, everyone quieted down and looked over together, their eyes meaningful.
Hu Xiujuan was completely silent in Zhang's house after being cleaned up by the old lady that day, even when she went out to work, she no longer talked to the people in the village, less than a month, she lost a lot of weight, not to mention, the whole person was gloomy, and it was extremely uncomfortable to see people's hearts.
Hu Xiujuan noticed the strange eyes of everyone, and then sped up and returned to Zhangjiayuan. Now she hates it in her heart, and she doesn't dare to make trouble on her face, she is now becoming more and more difficult in Zhang's house, Mrs. Zhang is grinding her every day, Zhang Fusheng will help her speak out of guilt in the first few days, and then after a long time, she is too lazy to bother, and she has the right to ignore what she can't see, which makes Hu Xiujuan's hateful teeth itch, but there is no way.
Everyone was still pointing and looking at the Zhang family, the old lady's face fell, and as soon as she saw the Zhang family, she remembered the rumor half a month ago.
I couldn't get angry, and I was afraid that the two children would be worried, the old lady kept it in her heart and didn't think about it, but the anger was still strong, and when she saw Hu Xiujuan today, the old lady was angry again, and went back to the courtyard with a needlework basket.
"Milk, what's wrong with you?" Lin Qing had just finished learning the homework assigned by his uncle yesterday, and was supervising Xiao Langmo to write the text, when he saw the old lady returning to the house with a long face, his heart suddenly became conspiratorial, which one didn't provoke the old lady with long eyes?!
"It's okay, my grandmother is unhappy when she sees the family next door. The old lady knew that Lin Qing didn't like the Zhang family, so she didn't hide it.
"If you see it again in the future, it will be like a few cats and dogs, and there is nothing to be angry with cats and dogs!" Xiao Lang has figured out the grievances and grievances of the Lin and Zhang families in the past few days of living in the Lin family, and he is also disgusted with the Zhang family in his heart.
"That's a good idea!" the old lady was happy, and most of the unhappiness in her heart was gone.
Lin glanced at Xiao Lang innocently, this person is still coaxing people as always. Seeing that the old lady was happy, she stepped forward and coquettishly said, "Milk, don't pay attention to the house next door, didn't you agree to make dumplings at noon today? ”
"Come! Milk, go chop the dumpling stuffing now. The old lady readily agreed, stopped making shoes, rolled up her sleeves and went to the kitchen.
Xiao Lang cleaned up the paper and pen on the table, handed the dictated text to Lin Qing, and said: "Every time you are greedy, why can't you eat much every time? ”
"Meow~" The first year of junior high school who was nesting on the side, heard someone call its name again, squinted at the cat's eyes, and barked lazily.
Lin Qing was sullen and glared: "I'm willing!"
Xiao Lang touched her head funny, "Okay, you are willing, you can do anything." After speaking, he went out of the house to help the old lady, chopping the dumpling filling is a hard work, and the old lady can't be chopped.
gave someone another roll of the eye, and Lin Qing followed Chu Yi to the kitchen.
The meat at home was taken out of Lin Qing's space, and no matter how it was cooked, it was extremely delicious, and even Uncle Tai, who had always attached great importance to vegetarianism, loved it.
Xiao Lang snatched the job of chopping the dumpling filling, and the old lady mixed the water and noodles, Lin Qing took a look, and simply volunteered to help the old lady pick vegetables. The old lady in the dumpling filling likes to mix cabbage and shallots, saying that it tastes fragrant, breaking cabbage and peeling green onions, she can do both.
But there are only cabbages at home, no green onions, but there are them in the space, but it is not good to take them out now if Xiao Lang is there, remembering that Xiaozhuzi's family has green onions, Lin Qing discussed with the old lady: "Milk, shall I go to Sister Xiaozhu's house to borrow some green onions?"
"Cheng, but we don't borrow it in vain, let's exchange things for it, and the old woman in the province is talking crookedly!" The old lady dipped her hands in her face and asked Xiao Lang to dig out half a bag of potatoes under the board.
"Take three for it, it's more than a green onion filling. "The old lady doesn't want to owe something to someone else's house.
Lin Qing nodded, holding three potatoes and leaving the courtyard gate, followed by the first year of junior high school.
The Sun family did not have a backyard, because they were planted with broad beans in their own fields, and the family's vegetables were planted on the west side of the yard in front of the house, and there was a fence around it.
Lin Qing took the potatoes and found Xiaozhu's mother directly, Xiaozhu's mother was generous, dug up more than 20 good green onions, and asked Lin Qing if it was enough, not enough to dig again, but she refused to accept the potatoes that Lin Qing brought.
Grandma Sun has been watching from the side, she has not worked for many years, and now she has begun to work hard in the field every day, not to mention the weight loss, the spirit is still very poor, at this time staring at Xiaozhu's mother to push the unwanted potatoes with an ugly tight face.
Lin Qing stuffed the potatoes into Xiaozhu's mother's arms regardless of it, and moved out of the old lady: "I don't know what kind of temper my milk is, if I take it back, my milk will definitely be delivered in person later." ”
Xiaozhu's mother was speechless, according to the old lady's temper, this was true, and in the end, Xiaozhu's mother accepted the three potatoes.
The newly dug green onions were still carrying soil, so Lin Qing had to drag the green onions out of Sun's house.
"Ahh
There were still a few steps to the gate of his own courtyard, a rough woman's voice startled Lin Qing, and when he looked up, there was an old woman in her fifties standing in front of Zhang's courtyard, with gray hair, a bloated torn cotton jacket, and an old face full of brown spots and wrinkles, with a hypocritical smile, and her eyes were even more complicated and difficult to distinguish.
This person Lin Qing knew, Hu Xiujuan's mother Zou Guihua, her greedy and selfish nature was completely inherited to Hu Xiujuan, and both mother and daughter had the same virtue.
Quan Dang didn't hear it, Lin Qing walked home without saying a word, and closed the courtyard door casually.
"This kid ......" Zou Guihua was stunned, didn't Xiujuan say that this kid was already with her?
After thinking about it for a while and not figuring it out, Zou Guihua broke a mouthful, cursed a few words at the Lin family in his heart, raised his feet and walked to the Zhang family.
"Xiujuan! Xiujuan! Mother is here, where are the people?" Before entering the door, Zou Guihua shouted loudly.
When Mrs. Zhang came out of the house and saw someone coming, she smiled stiffly: "My in-laws are here, come into the house, Xiujuan is in the house." As she was talking, Hu Xiujuan came out of the kitchen, covered in ashes, and immediately cried when she saw Zou Guihua.
"What's going on? Who bullied you?!" Zou Guihua is not easy to mess with, and when he saw his daughter so wronged, he felt a little distressed.
However, Mrs. Zhang is not happy in her heart, what's wrong? Your mother and daughter are scolding the old Zhang family in disguise?
"What is this doing? Is this an opinion on my old Zhang family or what?!" Mrs. Zhang's anger towards Hu Xiujuan still did not dissipate, and at this moment, the anger came up, and her tone became cold.
