Chapter VI: Controversy

"Yo, yo, is this wild boy really Li Niang? I haven't seen you in a few days, and you're more wild? "Xiao Wang is not a master who can be subdued in one or two sentences, she has slender eyes and thin lips like her mother-in-law Wang, and a mean face with high cheekbones, and the neighbors secretly say that it is thanks to the children of the Mo family that they have passed on the good looks of Mo Lao Xiucai.

"I haven't seen you for a few days, and the second aunt is more eloquent, the black can be said to be white, and the white can be said to be black, Li Niang admires it!" There was a sense of anger in Li Niang's chest, if she didn't do it, she would suffocate to death.

"Whether my brother is sick or not, I have Dr. Li to testify, if grandma and second aunt don't believe it, we might as well invite Dr. Li to ask one or two.

Besides, if my brother is not sick or not, what does it have to do with us getting fish? My family is so poor that they can't even open the pot, Qingyuan is so hungry that he screams, grandma doesn't care, can't we find a way to find some wild food to fill our stomachs?

Also, just now my grandmother and second aunt said that my brother is not filial, and we can't admit this crime! The fish hasn't been picked home yet, so how can we talk about filial piety to the elderly? ”

Li Niang crackled and snatched Bai, squeezing Xiao Wang's face and neck, and looking at his sister like a fighting cock, Shubai was both proud and guilty, he should have protected his younger brothers and sisters, instead of letting them charge ahead, but he retreated and did nothing.

Thinking of this, Shubai pulled Li Niang and Qing Yuan behind him, he straightened his spine, and bowed to Wang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, "Grandma, second aunt, Li Niang is also very hungry to say such a thing, she hasn't eaten a full meal for three days, and the meat is not seen for several months, and at first glance I saw such fresh and fatty fish and shrimp, I was inevitably excited." ”

The most important thing in the world is the good deeds, the quarrel of a few people has already attracted many onlookers, Wang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law only stared at the fish basket, but Shubai could see the disdainful ridicule in the eyes of the villagers, what a shame, such a family style......

Grandma and second aunt are not, Shubai can't be doubted, he hinted at it, my family can't eat enough, why do you have to leave us a little, don't do too much, so many people are watching.

The two baskets of fish were taken away by people at once, but Li Niang didn't do it, "Big brother, we still owe money to others, this fish is sold just to pay off the debt......"

"Okay, Liniang." Shubai gently held Li Niang's hand and pinched it, suggesting that she should stop making trouble, "Filial piety to the elderly, this is what we should do, we have no money, no food, and these fish can make grandma add a dish, so be it, second aunt, you see that we have to hurry back and pack up the fish sold in the town in exchange for life-saving rations, look at this basket of fish......"

Xiao Wang's didn't dare to make the decision, turned his head to look at Wang's, and Jiang Shi, the daughter-in-law of Li Daniu next to him, couldn't stand it anymore, and shouted loudly: "I said Xiucai grandma, Li Niang's three can't even eat stick noodles, Shubai still has to take medicine, don't hurry up and sell the fish for money, but how can you survive, if Mo Juren sees his baby being ruined like this in the sky, will he be so angry that he crawls out of the grave to find someone to settle accounts?" ”

Speaking of the dead Mo Juren, Wang's heart was weak for a while, and he glared at Jiang and said, "You have a lot to do!" After saying that, she turned her head and left, and when Xiao Wang saw that her mother-in-law had withdrawn, it was impossible to go back empty-handed, so she stepped forward and lifted a fish basket, dragged and dragged, and followed Wang.

There was no excitement to see, the villagers also dispersed, Jiang stepped forward to touch Qingyuan's head, praised his braids for being good-looking, Qingyuan happily grabbed two small fish and stuffed them into Jiang's hands, "Qingyuan let Auntie eat fish." ”

"Good boy, auntie doesn't eat." Jiang put the fish back in the basket, sighed and told Shubai that if this fish wants to be sold at a good price, it must be raised with water as soon as possible, the price difference between live fish and dead fish is far away, and Changfu's father's ox cart is about to turn around, so if you want to go to the market, you have to hurry.

Shubai thanked Jiang for reminding, picked up the fish basket with a flat pole, and the family of three hurried home, and saw a person wandering around the gate of the courtyard from a distance, and when he got closer, he was a handsome scholar, and now He Xiucai, who is in the limelight in Xiaowan Village, He Liansheng.

"Lian Sheng, but something?" Shubai's expression was faint, as usual, and he did not question and scold as he imagined, which made He Liansheng's careful liver fall back to the same place.

But after all, he robbed the Mo family's business, Shubai didn't say it, but He Liansheng took the initiative to apologize, "Shubai, the village chief and the clan elders came to me several times, but I really couldn't shirk it, so I promised to run a private ......school."

"This matter, it's okay, my body is really tired, you can take over the burden of teaching Meng Tong, I can't ask for it." Shubai still had a faint expression, "Okay, you go and get busy, we also have something to do, so we won't leave you for tea." ”

He Liansheng didn't even enter the door, he was sent away, but the reason for the book was too sufficient, they were busy sorting out the fish and shrimp, and they didn't have time to entertain guests, but He Liansheng was a little unwilling after all, turned sideways and let the three members of the Mo family pass, his eyes fell on Li Niang vaguely, until the thin figure disappeared into the chaimen, he dusted off his straight jacket, and walked home with his hands behind his back.

Li Niang was a little complaining about He Liansheng opening a private school without saying hello, but now she has no time to worry about people, she was busy filling the bucket with heavenly water, and Shubai poured the fish into the bucket again, and saw that the fish jumped up like crazy, and none of them turned their bellies.

"Oh, this fish is so lively, brother, let's divide two buckets." Li Niang carried another bucket and went to fill the heavenly court water, Shubai squatted on the side of the bucket, reached in and supported it, and then smelled the smell of the water, he glanced at Li Niang meaningfully.

Li Niang smiled, at this time, silence is better than sound, both brothers and sisters know what it means, and it is Qingyuan Xiaowa who is in the dark.

The fish was ready, Shubai found another pot and raised two fish, this one was left for the evening to eat, because he could immediately enter the town to sell fish to play, Qingyuan said that he could forgive his brother and sister for talking this time, but he must eat this fish today.

"Big brother, you raise the fish for me, and when I come back from the town, I'll eat them." Qingyuan told him seriously, Shubai and Li Niang looked at each other and smiled, I was really happy to have an obedient and sensible younger brother.

Li Niang washed her hands, put out the corn paste, and the three of them hurriedly dealt with the food, picked up the bucket, locked the door, and went straight to the big locust tree at the entrance of the village.

The person who should go to the town has already left, and no one wants to take the car at this time, Shubai put down his burden and discussed with Li Daniu in some embarrassment, can the car money be owed first? After selling something, I will make up all the money for the car when I turn around?

Li Da Niu glared at the leopard ring, a little angry, "Shubai, is your Uncle Da Niu the person who drills money?" This trip is specially for you, no money. ”

Shubai said no, Li Daniu said: "You have to care, that's good, when your father was in the past, he didn't help our family, just this cow, when I bought it, I still asked your father to take two taels of silver to be enough, you say, should this love be more repaid?" ”

Shubai was speechless, so he had to make a gesture to Li Daniu, put the bucket in the car, and hugged his younger brothers and sisters to sit down. Let's go to the market!
