Chapter 023: Let Them Repent and Repent
Thank you for the cold blood of the falling moon and the little sun for your reward, Mo Da~~
——————
When Zhang Shanni tidied up and walked out of the left wing courtyard, the time was just six o'clock, and she didn't find Xie Jingchen's dirty clothes after looking around, so she had to go to the front yard.
Six o'clock is not early in the countryside. Industrious women have basically gotten up and done housework. At this time, although there was no division of fields to households, but in relatively remote places, many people went to open some wasteland privately, grow vegetables, raise chickens, ducks and geese, etc., after all, the big pot rice has been canceled.
"Mother, I'll help you. As soon as Zhang Shanni arrived at the stove room, she found that Zhou Xiuhua was already washing rice, and when she saw a few sweet potatoes in the other place, she conveniently washed them and helped chop them and make breakfast.
"Hey, Xiao Nizi, why is it so early?" Zhou Xiuhua was two points satisfied when she saw Zhang Shanni get up so early.
"It's not early, mother, what else do you think I can do?" Zhang Shanni cut and cut it neatly, but in three or four minutes, she cut five sweet potatoes and prepared them, and stopped to look at Mother Xie.
"It's okay, you're going to go to town with the stone later, don't get your clothes dirty. Zhou Xiuhua mixed the rice soup and said without looking back.
“…… Oh. Zhang Shanni was a little at a loss, although she had the memory of the original owner, but some habits were not her own, and she didn't know what to do, at this time, Xie Jingchen finally appeared.
"Mother-" Xie Jingchen broke into the stove room sweating profusely, just to see Di Zhang Shanni standing beside her mother like a little daughter-in-law, playing with her little clothes a little helplessly, seeing him, she smiled happily, and even the little face was dark and swarthy.
"Eh~"
Xie Jingchen's expression was relieved, only when he was just greeting his mother before, but turned his gaze to Zhang Shanni, first surprised, and then said as if he had figured it out:
"Little Nizi, why do you get up so early?" he came back from running around the village road, and when he entered the sleeping house, he saw that the person was gone, which really scared him, so he hurriedly broke into the stove room.
Seeing Zhang Shanni in the stove room, he realized that his little daughter-in-law was a small village girl, and she was probably used to getting up early, so he was making a fuss for no reason.
"Get used to it. Brother Chen, where are you going?" Look at this sweat, it can be seen that the time for exercise is not short.
Without waiting for Xie Jingchen to answer, Xie Mu interjected and said, "Stone, you go back and take a shower, you will go out immediately, why do you still make yourself sweat profusely!"
Zhang Shanni also nodded secretly in agreement, there is no way in the end of the world, if it is dirty, it will be dirty, just endure it. But in this era, there are no zombies or monsters, and she can't see that this body of sweat is useless, and she looks at him innocently: Your mother is really right, hurry up and take a bath!
Xie Jingchen looked at Zhang Shanni's small movements, smiled, and said to his mother: "Then mother, I'll take a shower." ”
"Xiao Nizi, let's leave him alone, he, when he comes home, he still moves the habits of the army home, and he must get up at five o'clock every morning to run, wasting that energy!"
Zhou Xiuhua saw San'er running away, and explained to the new third daughter-in-law like this.
"Mother, don't say that, Brother Chen, he is a soldier, his work is dangerous, he is very good, only by maintaining a good physical condition, he can not be afraid of danger, and the safety factor can be improved a lot!" Zhang Shanni was silent for a while and retorted in a low voice.
"Oh, your dad said the same thing, I don't understand, but having a good body is a must!" Zhou Xiuhua saw that the third daughter-in-law looked like she was going to explain to the third son, and she rarely smiled:
"Ouch, it's rare that you can think clearly, and my mother is much more relieved!
"Yes, it's all up to my mother!"
"It's so good," no wonder San'er so readily admitted that she wanted to marry her, this character is indeed good!
Old lady, you eccentric eyes, awesome! Zhang Shanni rolled her apricot eyes, and she saw Zhou Xiuhua's satisfaction and pride in Xie Jingchen, and gave her future mother-in-law a thumbs up in her heart.
"Come, little Nizi, you can pack this money, and when you go to town, you have to buy some fabric and come back, if there is a big red one, pick the big red one, and my mother will make you a new set of clothes." Don't push, pretend, I know that the stone is rich, but this is the mother's heart, the elder gives it, and it is impossible to give up!"
Zhang Shanni didn't hesitate to push back when Xie Mu took out the money, and when she heard what she said, her face turned even redder, looking at the lump of money she was holding in her old hand, it might be enough for twenty yuan, she finally nodded at Xie Mu's insistence and took it, "Oh, thank you, mother! You are so good to me!"
Compared with the unreliable relatives of the original owner, the Xie family is a good person!
"You are now the third daughter-in-law, a member of our old Xie family, not good to you, good to whom! Xiao Nizi, my mother is also selfish, as long as you don't blame Shi for being separated from you for a long time because of working in the army, I will be separated from you for a long time, and I will be partial to you, and no one will dare to say anything!"
She was afraid that San'er would marry a trendy daughter-in-law in the city and wouldn't be able to keep it, so when San'er said that she wanted to come back to marry her daughter-in-law, she agreed.
"Not to blame. Mother, if it weren't for Brother Chen who saved me, I would have become a water ghost yesterday. ”
"Bah, what is Xiao Nizi talking nonsense, in the future, life will get better and better!"
"Well, mother, I'll serve the porridge?"
"Okay, your dad is getting up soon, I'll go see if a few older kids are up. Seeing that the sky was bright, Zhou Xiuhua handed her the big spoon in her hand, wiped her big hand on the apron in front of her abdomen, and walked out of the stove room quickly.
A few small ones haven't gotten up so early, but the three big ones have begun to get up one after another, Xie Mu just got out of the stove room, the little one, the two and the third have already rushed in, called Zhang Shanni's second aunt [second aunt], and picked up the porridge with baked potatoes, like a war, not afraid of snoring on the hot ground, and after eating a full stomach, he went to school.
Because the public primary school is located at the intersection of Shanglin Village, Laolin Village, and Qingfeng Village, from Xie's family to the primary school, it takes more than half an hour to walk at the pace of primary one, and several children go out before seven o'clock.
Today's children usually don't go to school until they are eight or nine years old, and some families are too busy to go to school at the age of ten. At this time, elementary school was only five years, junior high school was three years, high school was three years, and college was two years, most of which were more than three years. Therefore, the three young men are still in the primary school stage, the eldest is only thirteen years old, which is the fifth grade, the younger twenty-one is the fourth grade, and the third is nine years old, just the second grade.
Because Xiao Yi is the eldest grandson, he postponed going to school a year late, and that period was also the most tense time, if it wasn't for Xie Jingchen's insistence on getting an education, the children probably wouldn't have gone to school.
Zhang Shanni watched the three eldest nephews walk out of the yard quickly, her face flashed with envy, the original owner has always wanted to study, and she has not given up reading, but because of her eccentric parents and brothers, she is an out-and-out illiterate person in front of her family.
Only a few cousins of her uncle's family have been secretly teaching her to read and write, and it is because of this that the second sister of the original owner hates her even more, and openly and secretly, they are destroying her relationship with her uncle's family.
Zhang Baoni is selfish at heart, she can't get any benefits, even if she is her own sister, don't want to get any benefits!
Putting away the hope on her face, Zhang Shanni walked quickly to the stove room, thinking of the original owner's family, she snorted disdainfully in her heart, she would not recognize this kind of relative.
When the original owner died, he dissipated with resentment towards those close relatives, and did not resist her seizure at all, let alone let her repay her kindness, and still kept her alive for her, and even didn't have to recognize their relatives anymore.
Live better than they are, let them repent and repent!
