45. Flickering
45.
Although there was some schadenfreude in his heart, there was some sympathy on his face, and he kept comforting, "Second sister-in-law, bear with me, you also know our mother's character, you also saw the hardships I suffered at the beginning, don't go against the old lady, wait for the sister-in-law and them to come back, your life will be much better." The two families work separately, so it's better than being tired alone, and it would be better if the sister-in-law could help. ”
Lin Qiaoling was angry when she mentioned this sister-in-law, "Don't mention her, the more I talk about her, the more angry I become, you moved away, the three of us have become her punching bag, this is not my own clothes are too lazy to wash, let our apricot blossoms help wash them, you said that she is a girl's family, can the clothes be washed casually, I really don't understand, I am not ashamed and impatient......"
Bai Xiumei sneered, "She's not like this for a day or two, didn't she let our family Yue'er wash it before, and then let me say it, or you can also talk about it, anyway, our family Yue'er's head is not alive, in case someone else picks up the clothes here, do you say she wants this reputation."
It is estimated that I am also afraid that Yue'er will make a mistake, so I didn't let Yue'er wash, and I will lie to our family Pan'er in the future, the little girl has a hard mouth, and said that she has to wash her father, and men and women are not at the same table at the age of seven, although this is the elder brother, but this clothes can't be mixed together, or you can use this reason. ”
Lin Qiaoling sighed, "This excuse doesn't work, your second brother went out to work, and she can't listen to it for other reasons, alas, it's really sad."
Brother and sister, tell your sister-in-law, did you save some private money when you didn't split up before? ”
Bai Xiumei has nothing to hide about this matter, "Sister-in-law, the cloth I weave is all counted, the old lady has already taken aim at it, and it is not the same as your embroidery, even if I want to hide it, it is impossible for me, and the thread used is all bought by the old lady herself, so I don't dare to ignore half a piece of cloth, otherwise you say that I weave my own cloth and our adults and children still need to wear like that?" It's not much different from a rice flower, and it's probably cleaner. ”
Bai Xiumei's eyes rolled, half tentatively and half jokingly, and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm afraid you should have two in your hand, I advise you to hide it, our family has been patronized by others before, alas, I don't have to worry about anything after moving out." ”
Lin Qiaoling is not stupid, just hehe smiled, not to say anything else, "Okay, I've been out for so long, I guess the old lady should come back, if she knows that I came to you, the death guard will give me a face, I'll go first......"
No one bothered, Bai Xiumei hurriedly fed the pigs, and then took the basket to the mountains to pick plants that could be dyed, and weaved a cloth for Pan'er, but the cloth of Baihuahua was not worn by little girls, and if this thing was really worn out, it would not be a joke.
"Pan'er, you stay at home, and my mother will come back in a while......"
When Bai Xiumei went to the mountain, Yue'er and Chen Ping had already had an unexpected harvest, she didn't have time to look at the traps dug in the past two days, and she took her younger brother over this morning to take a look, and the two sisters and brothers had a good time.
I don't know if it's God's care or Yue'er's luck, except for the two traps and nothing, the rest have been harvested, Bao'er is looking at the three hares and two pheasants who are tied to their legs and smirking, Yue'er also got a few fish back, and the family is separated, the sister and brother don't have to roast and eat on the mountain, Yue'er directly used grass to wear the gills of the fish for Bao'er to watch together, and at the same time cut firewood, the wild vegetables were also dug up, and the little piglets were added to the house, and there was more to eat.
When Bai Xiumei passed, she saw her son sitting on the ground with his cheeks in tow and smirking from a distance.
"Bao'er, what are you doing?"
When the little guy saw his mother coming, he pounced happily and pulled Bai Xiumei to see the fruits of their labor today.
"Mother, look, my eldest sister and I got it, how about it, it can be sold for a lot of money, right?"
Bai Xiumei was also startled by several prey on the ground, "Why are there so many, what about your sister?" ”
The little guy pointed inside, "My sister is getting firewood on the side, mother, I can't take it, or I'll send it back, my sister said let me watch, and when the firewood is ready, we will go home together." ”
Bai Xiumei didn't know how to describe her current mood, happy, very happy, hugged her son and kissed her fiercely, and didn't forget to praise two sentences: "Well, our Bao'er is really capable, my sister can do it too, my mother will help your sister, let's put the rabbit and pheasant in the back basket, let's take it home in a while, and when we sell the silver, the mother will buy you something delicious." ”
The little guy shook his head, "Mother, sister said, wait until I save money to let me study......"
The child's words made Bai Xiumei's eyes hot, they didn't expect this as parents, and their daughters thought of it.
But I was also secretly surprised in my heart, could it be that my daughter's head has begun to improve in the past few days.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but smile happily, "Bao'er, wait for my mother here, we will come out soon." “
Yue'er has actually made firewood, but the wild vegetables have not been dug up yet, so she doesn't squat on the ground to search for edible wild vegetables, when Bai Xiumei passed, she saw her daughter digging vegetables seriously.
She didn't dare to make it louder, for fear that the loud voice would scare the child, and if the condition worsened, it would be bad, so she whispered "Yue'er ————"
Chen Yue raised her head and saw that her mother was coming, and her little face couldn't help but smile, "Mother, have you seen our harvest today, there are a lot of rabbits, they can be sold for a lot of money, it is estimated that we can buy enough food to eat for a while......
Bai Xiumei cautiously asked, "Girl, tell your mother, do you feel better when you wear that bead?" ”
Yue'er scratched her head, "Mother, I don't know what it feels like, it's very comfortable, and I don't seem to be so confused in the past two days, maybe the old monk is right, we are not in a hurry, anyway, it has been so many years, and it doesn't get better so quickly." ”
Bai Xiumei also felt that it was, it was not a panacea, it was just a string of Buddhist beads, how could it be so fast.
It's just that the two of them didn't expect that Chen Dahai and Wang Meiqin at home suddenly came, and they really didn't have any psychological preparation to face these two people directly, this uncle usually doesn't look at them, what about the aunt, she said that she can't tell whether this person is good or bad, but she doesn't like it very much in her heart.
As soon as Chen Dahai and his wife came in, they were a little dumbfounded, there was no place to sit, so they couldn't stand on the ground and talk.
Pan'er couldn't see any expression on her face, but said lightly, "Uncle, we don't have a stool at home, why don't you go to the kang and sit on it, my mother and they are not at home, so I'......m alone."
Wang Meiqin took Pan'er's hand and said as she walked, "We don't have anything else to do, I just want to come and see, last time you were a little anxious about breaking up, we don't know the news, if we knew earlier, we would have come back to help you, Pan'er, where did they go?" ”
Wang Meiqin seems to be unintentionally stumbling and smiling, and she is also a young man, and she is a cowardly cut
Pan'er don't look small, but there are a lot of eyes that should be there, the eldest aunt said that she came to take a look, why didn't she see them come over to see them with things, there was really no sincerity at all.
Because Pan'er's face is still swollen now, Wang Meiqin didn't see the little girl's disdainful look, and she chatted with Pan'er self-righteously, talking about things outside.
"Alas, in the countryside we see is the small piece of sky above our heads, only to know that the world is big, we think that the people who can eat steamed buns in the tunzi are rich people, and only when we go out do we know where it is, and the real rich people eat and wear that we have never seen, let alone others.
Pan'er, if you have a chance to take your aunt out to see in the future, I heard that it is easy to find a job in the county, and you can earn a lot, I want you Sister Lian'er to try it, you can earn money and buy beautiful clothes to wear, and you can also make the family conditions better......"
I'm not interested in what Wang Meiqin said, I want to wear clothes that my mother will make for her, I want to eat well, and if I don't have money at home, it's useless, outside like the eldest aunt said, she hasn't been to the town before, she needs money everywhere, what kind of work can she do like her, how can the eldest aunt say it is so good, it seems that the city is full of gold, and you can pick up silver by bending down casually.
Wang Meiqin saw that Pan'er didn't squeak, and added another dose of fierce medicine, "Pan'er, if you want to work in the county to earn money, your uncle may be able to help find a way, I heard that there are many people who hire little girls, and they don't have to work too long, and they will give you money to spend every month, what a good thing."
There are also two families in our tunzi for your uncle to help inquire about this, I will think that such a good thing can not forget your family, if you want, go back and tell us. ”
Pan'er smiled bitterly, "Auntie, I don't scare people away with my face, Lang Zhong said that my face has to be taken care of, if it doesn't get right, it will break the phase, I can't get out for the time being, but I'll talk to my mother about this later......"
Now that their goal has been achieved, Wang Meiqin chatted with Pan'er for a while, and then the couple left, looking at the back of the eldest aunt and their back, Pan'er's little people couldn't help but want to sigh.
She also wants to make money, but her mother and sister are alone at home, and she doesn't want to leave them to go out by themselves, and when Bai Xiumei and they come back, Pan'er also muttered to her mother about Chen Dahai and his wife.
Bai Xiumei and Yue'er's faces changed when they heard this, "Mother, my sister doesn't go out to earn that money, girl, that's a good thing, think about it for the worse, when you get to other people's homes, you don't want to beat and scold the mood of the owner's family, and besides, my sister doesn't go to serve others, even if we suffer hardship, we have to be together as a family, if we want to earn money, let's take our time, but this road must not be taken." ”
Although she didn't know what this girl was doing, the reaction in her head was not good, and she wanted to oppose it.
Bai Xiumei's face was a little ugly and sighed, "What do you mean, your eldest aunt, come here to fool us Pan'er, girl, don't listen to your eldest aunt, there is that good thing, your second aunt has long been eyeing it, besides, Lian'er didn't go either, let's not move that thought, just like your sister said, let's stay at home honestly." ”
