Chapter 278
PS: Babies, refresh it tomorrow morning!
The courtyard of the Song family is a very typical farmhouse. www.biquge.info There are five main rooms, three east and west wings each, and the courtyard is fenced off by a fence wall.
Perhaps because the children are married, at the back of the yard, like scars, there are two thatched houses with yellow mud rammed on the east and west sides.
Of course, the Song family's house, except for the middle three rooms of the main house, which are mud tile houses, the rest are all mud-tamped thatched houses.
The yellow mud thatched houses on both sides of the main house were apparently temporarily added later.
It's just a few rooms, all of which are still dilapidated, and the walls are seriously falling off.
In the west wing room where Song Heiniu lived, there was an arm-thick crack on the wall, which was on the north side of the west window.
At this point, the seam was filled with handfuls of thatch.
As for the thatch of the roof, it is also very badly damaged. Basically, every rainy day, the people of the Song family can only take out pots and buckets to catch the rainwater that leaks into the house.
It was really heavy rain outside the house and light rain inside the house.
Song Lao Er pushed open the fence courtyard door, and the courtyard door creaked open, half-hanging on the door frame, rattling, and looking like it was going to collapse.
The main house in the courtyard is the largest of the five main rooms. At this moment, there was a faint fire flickering in the hall.
It was the light of a torch made of dried bamboo.
Mrs. Song and her entourage walked into the courtyard by the dim light of the fire and headed towards the hall. As soon as Song Heiniu stepped into the yard, she almost let a small pit under her feet give her feet.
Fortunately, the Wang family pulled Song Heiniu on the side, and Song Heiniu was spared the tragic fate of close contact with the earth.
"You crazy girl, you won't even walk now. You say, "What's the use of these expensive things?" Wang's loud voice didn't stop, and along the way, he was talking about asking Song Heiniu to withdraw these pen, ink, paper, and inkstones.
Song Heiniu gritted her teeth and didn't let go of her mouth until she died. Although Wang was depressed, he didn't know what to do with Song Heiniu.
Walking through the courtyard with one foot deep and one foot shallow, Song Heiniu and the others stepped on the three-story stone stairs in front of the main house and entered the hall.
The floor of the hall is almost the same as in the courtyard, even the table of the Eight Immortals in the middle of the room is made of stones and wooden blocks, and the table legs are flattened.
In the hall, the old lady of the Song family sat on the right side of the Eight Immortals table. Old man Song sat on her lower left.
Seeing that all the people in the group had entered the house, Mrs. Song asked softly, "What's going on, how did I hear the noise?" ”
Mrs. Song sat down on the chair brought by Song Er, and replied with a straight face: "Mother-in-law, you don't know, just now the fifth daughter-in-law almost ruined the reputation of our daughter." ”
When Mrs. Song heard this, she knew that it had not been ruined, so she didn't take it to heart, and continued to ask, "What's the matter with the black girl?" ”
Speaking of this, Mrs. Song was even more angry, and said, "The black girl sold a stone and got five taels of silver." But she actually spent three or two or three dollars to buy a lot of pen, ink, paper, inkstone and so on that we can't use at home. Mother-in-law, you say, isn't the black girl being tricked? ”
It was only at this time that Song Heiniu knew that the reason why Song Pozi was angry was not that she bought this ink, paper and inkstone privately, but because Song Pozi thought that she Song Heiniu was fooled into buying these things.
Yes, this family is actually quite cute to get along with. Song Heiniu couldn't help but laugh, and leaned next to Wang, who was staring at her.
Wang was so angry that he stretched out his hand and poked Song Heiniu's head, and said angrily: "Ouch, look at your stupid appearance." ”
At this time, the old lady of the Song family finally recovered from the shock that Song Heiniu sold a stone and got five taels of silver, and said softly: "Isn't this very good." What kind of pen, ink, paper, inkstone, it's a big deal to go back. Brunette, why did you think of selling stones? ”
Song Heiniu looked up at the old lady of the Song family with a smile, and replied crisply: "Mrs., I felt bored at home, so I took a stone to the town to play." Who knew that the shopkeeper of the jewelry store liked the stone in my hand, so he bought it. ”
"Oh, that's right." The old lady of the Song family was still smiling, and asked softly, "Then why did you buy those pens and papers again?" ”
Song Heiniu hugged the burden in her arms tightly and replied: "As soon as I saw these things, I felt close and wanted to bring them home, so I bought them." ”
After Song Heiniu finished speaking, she smiled, but it was not much different from her previous stupidity.
In the past, the silly black girl always brought some tattered things to the house. Every time she was forcibly thrown away by the Wang family or Mrs. Song, she had to make a mess.
Of course, the silly Song Hei Niu is not crying or spilling or anything. She just stares at you angrily. Wherever you go, she will follow you, always glaring at you angrily.
Even if you go to the hut, she will follow you, squatting in front of you, staring at you with big, round grunt, swarthy eyes.
Unless you pick up what you lost and give it back to him, she can stare at you like that for the whole year. Even if she is beaten and scolded, Song Heiniu will never turn her head and leave.
That's it, the people of the Song family no longer dare to mess with Song Heiniu's things.
Now that Song Heiniu is such a performance, the hearts of the Song family are all clear, those pen, ink, paper and inkstone, I am afraid that they will not be able to retreat.
After Song Heiniu finished speaking, the Wang family put the two strings in his arms, a total of more than 1,700 copper plates, on the table of the Eight Immortals.
"Grandma, Daddy, this is the silver left over from the black girl after buying those things." Wang said as she retreated to where she had been standing.
That's it, that's pretty much it. Old man Song, who had always looked at everyone kindly, nodded, and said to Mrs. Song: "Mother, it's getting late, let's eat first." If there is anything, let's talk about it tomorrow. ”
Of course, Mrs. Song won't have a second word. She always listened to her son. The silver money on the table was carried into the arms of Mrs. Song.
The group went to the dining room in a crowd. That is, the first room of the East Wing.
In the dining room, the little daughter of the Song family, that is, Song Xiaochen, Song Heiniu's aunt, had already taken her nephews and nieces to set up the dishes and chopsticks.
Seeing everyone enter the dining room, Song Heiniu's second and fourth aunts brought out the dishes one after another.
On one side, Song Heiniu's third aunt was holding bowls of sorghum rice mixed with flower bean grains.
There are many people in the Song family, and there are rules for serving rice. Men and children can eat a bowl full of rice. For women, it's two-thirds of a bowl of rice.
As for the old man, that is, the old lady of the Song family, she is more special and can eat a bowl of white rice.
At the dinner table, there was no food. Except for the seasonal wild vegetables and the melons and vegetables from the yard, there is no meat at all.
Those dishes are boiled in white water, and a little salt is added to them, so they borrow a taste.
Song Heiniu took most of her own bowl of rice, followed the little guys to sit at a small square table at the edge of the main table, and ate quietly.
