Chapter XXVII

Li Xiao arranged himself and said, "Fourth sister, I will live in my sister-in-law's house in the future." I get up when I'm ugly and go out, and I'll come back when I'm young. You don't have to worry about me. I recognized a master, and the master was very good to me, and this year has been like this."

When Siya heard this, she asked, "What about your breakfast and lunch?"

Li Xiao replied: "I eat game in the mountains, and I will roast a pheasant for you to eat tonight, so that you can also taste my craft." Seeing Li Xiao's insistence, Siya knew that her fifth sister had a hard temperament, so she nodded and agreed.

At night, Li Xiao set up a firewood fire outside the door and roasted pheasants. It's fragrant, it's very fragrant. But it's too wasteful to eat like this, and even Siya is very distressed. Siya was afraid that Li Xiao would roast the other one, so she put it away.

The crops are all distressed to eat, and if the mother-in-law's family sees the fifth sister ruining the food like this, they will definitely have opinions after a long time. In fact, the Zhang family is already distressed. It's just hard to say anything, it was brought by someone.

The next day, Li Xiao started her career of leaving early and returning late. The difference is that she wrapped the big knife around and wrapped it, and it was no longer obvious that it was a knife on her back. She would come back every day with a pheasant or a hare.

Li Xiao's life in Zhang's house was very good, and Siya prepared a bowl of pheasant soup or hare soup for Li Xiao every night.

Li Xiaoyi stayed for 10 days in a row. The Zhang family is happy that Li Xiao lives in their house.

One morning, Village Chief Zhang asked her, "Daughter-in-law, does your fifth sister not like our family?" Why can't you see her every day during the day, you let her not have to hide out during the day, just treat it as her own home. You can't bully her."

Then the old lady of the Zhang family also spoke: "The girl of the Li family is a god of wealth, since she came to our house, our family has not been short of meat every day." She can live as long as she likes. Whoever drives her away will be against me."

Siya said happily when she heard this: "The fifth sister said that she likes this and wants to live there permanently." Don't worry, she's not hiding, she's loved running into the mountains since she was a child." The Zhang family was relieved.

The Li family is here. The people who came were Brother Lai and Sanwang. Originally, Sixi was going to come over, but the old man didn't let him. The old man wanted Sanwang to go and talk to Li Xinxin about the succession. If Li Xiao himself agrees, Erzhu will have an opinion and will not say anything. Sixi doesn't know about the succession, isn't it a mess when he goes?

Brother Lai and Sanwang met with the elders first. The Zhang family felt very sorry for their daughter, and their son-in-law was not at home, and they didn't know whether they were alive or dead.

The Zhang family doesn't know what happened to the Li family, Zhang Cheng is not a person with a broken mouth, and if Siya doesn't say it when she sees her husband, she naturally doesn't say it either. But Li Xiaoyi lived for ten days, and the Zhang family had no more ideas. It's just that the daughter-in-law is not good to ask, and when she sees her daughter coming back, she must ask to understand.

Sanwang saw that Li Xiao was not at Zhang's house, so he went back. Sanwang repeatedly told his younger brother that he must persuade the fifth sister. Li Xiao's task was taught to his younger brother.

Village Chief Zhang asked her brother if something had happened to her in-laws.

Brother Lai said: "I don't know much about the details, but I know that the second aunt doesn't like the sister-in-law to go up the mountain, and I can't see her dancing and swords." secretly shortened my sister-in-law's food in private. A few days ago, the second aunt took advantage of the absence of her father-in-law and second uncle to clean up her sister-in-law and throw away her things. The sister-in-law's temperament is also stubborn enough. The two had a big argument. Only then did we know that the second aunt had shortened the sister-in-law's food since the spring ploughing. No wonder my sister-in-law went out early and returned late this year, and my brother-in-law also asked my mother-in-law to wash my sister-in-law's clothes and bedding. At the beginning, I also said that there is a second aunt here, and we can't do well. My mother-in-law also felt bad. Who knew that the third uncle had a temper. You also know my situation, there is no news that Da Zhuang went to be a soldier, we only have one brother in this room, I dare not offend him, if Da Zhuang is good in the future, I will count on him. Later, I listened to him, and whatever he said was what he said. My sister-in-law is also pitiful, and I don't know how she survived this year without food."

The younger brother wiped his tears and said, "The second aunt is really ruthless." It means that my sister-in-law can only have one dinner a day. In this way, my sister-in-law also went home to get game every once in a while. This sister-in-law's temper is really unspeakable. I endured it for a year without telling anyone, and I didn't let anyone know. If the two hadn't quarreled and said it, the family would still be kept in the dark. The old man was furious when he found out. If nothing else, let's just talk about the prey that the fifth sister got back all day and the rations of the second uncle's family last winter. The second aunt can't talk about it in the old man."

Brother Lai sighed and said: "My mother-in-law is also a troublemaker, I don't know what the third uncle said, my mother-in-law insists on passing my sister-in-law to our house." Strangely, the old man agreed. Isn't this just for me and my third uncle to come over and talk to my sister-in-law. Brother and sister, do you think my sister-in-law can agree"?

Siya has already listened stupidly, what has her mother done this year. muttered in her mouth: "No wonder the fifth sister can barbecue, if she doesn't make her own food, will she starve to death in the mountains." Why didn't she know to talk to my father, my father loved her so much."

Zhang Cheng knew that his daughter-in-law was distressing his sister, so he pushed her and said, "Don't worry about the fifth sister who didn't eat, she is good at barbecue, I don't know how many things are harmed."

Tears flowed in everyone's hearts, this is all meat. The better farmers eat meat once a month, and the poor people can only eat one meat meal all year round. Lao Li's family really raised a loser daughter-in-law. If you think about it with your ass, you know that people who can take game home every once in a while can still be hungry themselves.

Siya listened to her husband's words, and the corners of her mouth twitched. That's true, but how can it sound so uncomfortable.

In other words, Li Xiao really didn't think she was wasting food. She roasted two pheasants with her master, and she ate half of them, and her master could eat one and a half. How can it be wasted. Her master left after the winter, and she ate as much as she wanted, and buried what she couldn't eat in the snow outside the wooden house. She won't eat it anymore if it's buried, and it's not a waste to use it as fertilizer to moisten the earth.

Siya bowed her head and said, "I don't know if the fifth sister will agree, if it weren't for my father, she would agree." But my dad is still here, so I don't know what she thinks."

In the evening, Li Xiao dragged a roe deer back. Outside the door, he shouted, "Brother-in-law, come out and help".

The Zhang family came out in an uproar, Li Xiao was stunned, why did they all come out. Seeing that my sister-in-law was also there, I knew in my heart that I was here to pick her up.

When the Zhang family saw the roe deer on the wood behind Li Xiao, they were also stunned, and they directly surrounded them. Because Li Xiao didn't have enough strength, he couldn't resist many things. So he made a wooden climbing plow, and the prey he hit was pulled back to the wooden house by the climbing plow.

Zhang Cheng picked up the roe deer and said: "You have more than 100 catties, you villain, how did you hit this big thing"?

Li Xiaohe didn't reply to Zhang Cheng twice, took Siya's hand and asked, "Is my sister-in-law here to pick me up?"

The younger brother said, "No, come into the house and say." The younger brother took Li Xiao's hand and went back to her cabin.
