Chapter Twenty-Seven: I Want Snake Oil

When Guoguo left, Fang Chunxiang also went back to his room. ◢ With ◢ dream ◢ little ◢ said that Щщшlā was still sleeping silently, snoring like a little pig, she couldn't help but be a little bored, put down the needle and thread and lay down herself.

When Shi Jian came back in the evening, she hadn't gotten up to cook. The old stone called twice outside, but she didn't answer and stopped calling, and went into the kitchen alone to toss. When Shi Jian came back, he saw the smoke billowing from the kitchen, and his father was burning the fire alone, so he was angry.

He kicked open the door and got up silently in fright: "Dad." "Crying in a daze.

"Where's your mother?" His anger was bubbling up, and he couldn't suppress it.

"Mother?" The little kid sat on the bed, looked around, and pointed to the woman who was still lying on the bed: "Mother." ”

Shi Jian strode into the room and came over to the bedside, with a murderous look, and cried silently in fright: "Dad." ”

"You lazy woman, are you lazy again? Hurry up! Shi Jian slapped the person on the bed.

Fang Chunxiang was woken up by the sound of kicking the door, and originally wanted to pretend to be asleep, but she really couldn't pretend at this time: "What are you doing!" She sat up with a flip of her hand and glared at Shi Jian viciously.

"You die! Don't look at the hour anymore! Shi Jian picked up the child, and then stretched out his foot and kicked Fang Chunxiang: "Hurry up and go cook!" Can this kitchen work be handed over to my father alone?! ”

"Why can't you?" Fang Chunxiang was also on fire, she tore off the thin quilt covering her body, and stood up in an uproar: "You go to see other people's homes, which daughter-in-law has me working so hard?" I serve the old and the young, do laundry and cooking, can't I rest for a while? In this house, can you do it without me? Am I doing less? ”

Shi Jian's arrogance suddenly disappeared a lot. Although Shi Fang's temper is not very good, after all, she is his daughter-in-law, and she relies on one person to take care of everything inside and out, so it is naturally hard.

"Yes, you've worked hard. But don't look at it, the sun is going down. It's time to cook, and the big brother will be back later. Shi Jian was not stubborn at this time, and his voice was much lower.

As soon as he talked about Shi Lei, Fang Chunxiang's anger came up again: "Hmph! Come back, come back! Look at how much private money he has saved, his father and mother are not our own, why should we take care of him without paying! "Today it was when she talked about money that she felt uncomfortable.

Shi Jian frowned: "Say less!" Can Big Brother be an outsider? "My father and mother are like this, can you still dislike it?

"He's not an outsider, is he from our family?" Fang Chunxiang is also a shrewd person, she lowered her voice and said to Shi Jian, "If you don't dig up money now, if he marries a daughter-in-law in the future, don't want to dig a child from him." ”

Silent's voice had already been lowered, she pulled her shoes and walked in front of Shi Jian, and reached out to hug Mo Mo: "Anyway, I'm not comfortable tonight, I want to eat, you can do it." ”

Shi Jian sighed and went out with a frown. It's not once or twice that such thunder and rain are small, so the two old men of the Shi family will not come to persuade them, knowing that in the end, it is always their son who suffers. If it's really a big fuss, then it's good to stand up again.

It was dark for a while before Shi Lei came back, and when he was eating cold and hard leftovers, he heard the old stone say that Guoguo came to him, and a light flashed quickly in his eyes, but he didn't say anything.

The next morning, he chopped wood and tidied up the yard before going to Guoguo's house.

Guoguo happened to be in the courtyard with pumpkin seedlings, which should be the last batch of flower seedlings, and she was carrying a small basket through the wide melon leaves, and her light blue floral clothes were covered with a hazy light in the morning light. Shi Lei felt that his whole body was comfortable.

Fang Yuqian was shaving a washboard, he had been busy with this recently, Guoguo said that he would start selling it only after he had collected enough fifty yuan, so he listened. As soon as he looked up, he saw Shi Lei standing at the gate of the courtyard, and a smile immediately climbed up his face: "Shi, come here?" ”

Shi Lei was shocked by Fang Yuqian's abrupt voice, and looked away from Guoguo a little unnaturally. He walked into the courtyard and helped Fang Yuqian tidy up a few wooden planks: "Uncle Fang." ”

"Sit." Fang Yuqian handed over the small bench, and then shouted to the kitchen: "Cao'er Niang, the stone is here." ”

Liang answered in the kitchen, and soon came out with a bowl of porridge and a steamed bun: "You haven't had breakfast yet, have you?" ”

Shi Lei wanted to excuse himself, but Guoguo was coming over with a basket in the afterglow. He didn't know that he reached out and took it. He really didn't eat breakfast.

"Brother Shi, I was just thinking about looking for you again!" Guoguo spontaneously sat down, put the basket on the ground, and then slowly tore the melon vines and plucked the stamens, and said, "You eat first, and I want to ask you for help when you are done!" ”

Shi Lei quickly ate well, and Fang Yu Qian said happily: "Is it enough, not enough for your aunt to add a little." ”

Shi Lei's swarthy face seemed to be covered with a layer of red, he put the bowl away with some restraint, and asked, "What do you want me to do?" ”

"I want snake oil and python skin." Guoguo's work in his hands did not stop, but the words in his mouth were terrifying, "Will you catch snakes?" Can you help me get some back? I want a lot of snake oil! ”

Shi Lei was a little surprised, looked at Fang Yuqian's calm face, and knew that they were naturally useful, and it was not easy to ask, so he said directly: "Yes, yes, but it is more difficult." ”

"Hmm. It's okay, you caught it, I'll buy it from you, you can catch it whenever you want. Guoguo put the green melon vines on one side of the basket, and on the other side were neatly stacked yellow pumpkin flowers, which was very beautiful.

"You-" Shi Lei wanted to ask if you were not afraid of snakes, but then thought of the last time he encountered snakes, so he didn't talk about it.

"Brother Shi, why don't you take me up the mountain too! I promise not to hold you back. "During this time, the herbs I saw were almost done, and it was time to really pick some herbs. What's more, if you rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, you still have to go to the mountains to see.

Shi Lei naturally looked up at Fang Yuqian's attitude, but Fang Yuqian didn't react: "Stone, Guoguo wants to go, if it's not troublesome, you can take her there!" ”

"I'll go too." At this time, Aoki, who was still practicing calligraphy in the room, said.

"What are you running out for! Lazy again. Guoguo glanced at him and patted the sundries on his body, "Take this to the kitchen and give it to my sister." Or I'm going to take you there. ”

"You know pretending to be an adult." Qingshu said helplessly.

"Brother Shi, we always want to go to the mountains farther away, if it's inconvenient, forget it. But this snake oil, I really want it. Guoguo talked to Shi Lei seriously.

"Well, I'll help you get it." Shi Lei also said seriously, "In the mountains, don't go!" Although he knew in his heart that this girl was bold, he didn't know why, and he was always a little uneasy.

And before Shi Lei entered the mountain to catch snakes, someone came to the village to grab food. Mu Xiu Yu Lin is really not a good thing. The harvest in Banyan Village finally stimulated the down-and-out families.
