Chapter 13: Chicken Ass
Lian Man'er, she talked about Zhang's sore spot. But if it didn't hurt, Zhang wouldn't be awake.
Zhang sat in a daze for a while, and finally wiped away his tears.
"Your aunt doesn't seem to know how to do it, and the whole family is waiting for dinner. My mother still has to help. Zhang discussed with Lian Man'er, "Your father and we also have to eat." Man'er, your words, my mother remembers, my mother will be measured this time. ”
Lian Man'er was a little helpless, the Zhang family was really virtuous, and he took the overall situation into account. Speaking from the heart, if she wants to get along with others, she also hopes that the other party will be someone like Zhang.
To make Zhang's change is not something that can be done overnight. Now that Zhang is willing to listen to her opinion, this is a good change. Just like Zhang's said, doing more work will not kill people, thinking of this, even Man'er will no longer stop Zhang's chicken butt in Chapter 13.
"Then I'll go with my mother, and I can help with the work." Lian Man'er said. The Gu family is so shrewd, and the Zhang family is a straight and solid person, she is afraid that the Zhang family will suffer.
Zhang wanted to help cook, and Zhao also helped.
Gu Shi lit a fire under the stove and made a room full of smoke, but the fire was not lit, and he was bending over and coughing there. She thought that the Zhang family had a grudge against her because of Lian Man'er's matter, and refused to come to help, just now it was just an excuse. She was angry and hateful, gritted her teeth, and when she saw Zhang and Zhao helping, she immediately smiled.
When the Zhao family entered the door, he took over the work in the hands of the Gu family.
“…… The firewood is a little damp...... Don't put it anywhere, brother and sister, you see......" Gu smiled at Zhang.
Zhang glanced at Lian Man'er, and Lian Man'er nodded lightly to Zhang.
"Sister-in-law, the firewood was just dried by Gorou yesterday, and it is not damp at all. It's the sister-in-law who doesn't do these jobs all year round, and her hands are born. "Zhang said to Gu.
"Yes, fourth brother and sister, you are right, I am handborn. Gorou is a good boy. Gu Shi said busily.
Zhang looked at Lian Man'er again, and Lian Man'er nodded to her encouragingly. It should be like this, for some people, you can't always be a good person, and you can only gain respect if you are tough.
Zhang's heart moved slightly. If it were usual, Chapter 13 Chicken Ass She would definitely follow Gu's words, at least she would not refute Gu, although what Gu said was not right. Today, she changed slightly, that is, Gu Shi followed her, and also affirmed Goro's labor.
Man'er really didn't say it, Zhang thought, she was so obedient, it was really out of place.
"Sister-in-law, what it means to see my mother is to ask my sister-in-law to take turns to cook the family's meals. My sister-in-law must have done better than us, it's the first time I've done it, and I'm a little handy. My sister-in-law is a smart person, she learns while watching, and she can get started quickly. As Zhang spoke, he pointed out everything in the room to Gu, and even taught Gu by hand. These are all taught to her by Lian Man'er, saying that she can't "dominate the guests." ”
Gu Shi had a smile on his face, but his heart was bitter. She Zhang is the most soft-hearted, and plans to coax Zhang with good words and let Zhang do all the work for her. Now it seems that Zhang has no such plan at all.
The Gu family has been pampered for a long time, and even if the Zhang family is guiding by the side, they stumble when they get to work. Zhang is a diligent and neat person, so she can't stand it, and in the end, she did most of the work, although Gu also got a face of gray smoke.
"Auntie learns so fast, she will be able to cook next time." Lian Man'er said deliberately.
The corners of Gu's mouth twitched, next time, she wouldn't allow a next time, and she would go back to the town with Lian Shouren in a while.
The meal had just been cooked, and even the old man and the guards were from the outside. A few put the exchanged silver on the kang, and sealed the silver for a full ten years, and put half of the kang in white flowers. Even the old man, Lian Shouxin and Lian Shouli all frowned, only Lian Shouren and Lian Shouyi were inexplicably excited. It turned out that Lian Shouren borrowed six hundred taels of silver from Lao Jin, and the exchange was a full five hundred and forty taels.
"There is also the matter of flowers, and the family should also use money, borrow more, and be more generous." Lian Shouren said.
The money has already been borrowed, and even the old man is not good to talk about it.
"Eat first," said the old man, "after eating, you will go to the town, and the money owed to people will be repaid as soon as possible." ”
Dishes and chopsticks were placed here, and Gu Shi called Lian Shouren out under the pretext of letting Lian Shouren wash his hands, and the couple whispered for a long time before returning to the table.
The family quickly finished breakfast, Gu Shi put the bowl outside, and secretly handed a urging look to Lian Shouren.
"Father, mother, I'll go to the town to pay back the money," Lian Shouren said to Old Man Lian and Zhou, "I also have to buy some dowry for Hua'er, and I want Hua'er's mother to handle it." Let's go with me. ”
Even the old man was about to nod, but Zhou coughed. In everything about the children, even the old man has always listened to the Zhou family, so he didn't, he had to listen to the Zhou family.
"You and the two of you go and pay back the money, and the three of them stay at home. I've thought about the dowry of the flowers. Her aunt's ready-made shop, no? Even if there are one or two things that are temporarily lacking, let them buy them, and it will be cheaper than us. Let's open what we want to sell at home, and give it to her aunt with the silver, so as to save more worry. ”
Unexpectedly, the Zhou family said that it was the end, and the Gu family hurriedly glanced at Lian Shouren again, telling him not to agree.
"Mother, the Sun family is not an ordinary family, and the dowry of the flowers ......" Even Shouren didn't expect the Zhou family to arrange it like this, so he wanted to find a reason to shirk it.
"You've only lived in town for a few years." Zhou interrupted Lian Shouren's words and glanced at Gu coldly, "Lan'er has lived in the county for many years, and her shop is thriving, and how many big families have she had. She knows more about this than you do. Hua'er's family affair is thanks to her aunt, otherwise, where would you know the Sun family? The dowry is entrusted to her aunt, which is the most secure. ”
Lian Shouren was speechless to refute what Zhou said, and Gu didn't dare to contradict Zhou at this time, so he could only be anxious on the side.
"Besides, Hua'er is getting married, and I, the milkman, have to teach her some rules, so as not to have no rules for others, and it is my family that is embarrassed." Zhou said again.
Am I not a mother-in-law who can teach you more? Gu was angry in his heart, but he could only hold back his anger and did not dare to say anything.
"Do as your mother said. Hua'er has been living in the town, and this old mansion has not lived for a few days. In the future, it will be even more difficult to go out. For the past few months, let's live at home. Even the old man said, "The houses in the town are rented, not like at home." Flowers are to be married at home. ”
"Yes, Hua'er, you and I live together, we may have a good talk." Even Xiu'er was happy.
Even the old man spoke, and the three of Gu's mother and daughter were unwilling, so they could only agree temporarily, and the awkwardness in their hearts could not be described in words.
"It's almost autumn, let the step-ancestors too." Before Lian Shouren went out, even the old man instructed again.
Lian Shouren agreed, and went to the town with Lian Shouyi and Lian Shouxin.
…………
When the farm family is idle all year round, the children of the farm family have to help the adults do what they can from a very young age.
As soon as he finished eating, Zhou moved a bench, sat under the eaves of the main house, and greeted Lian Zhi'er and Lian Man'er's children.
"Open the chicken pen and catch the chickens."
Catch chickens and do it, do you want to kill chickens and eat them today? Lian Man'er turned his head to look at Lian Zhi'er.
"Get the chickens out there and let them find food. Milk still has to touch a few eggs today. We don't have to worry about the roosters, just catch all the hens and touch them one by one. Lian Zhi'er was a little stunned when she saw Lian Man'er, thinking that she couldn't remember many things because she fell on her head, so she hurriedly explained to her.
"Oh." Lian Man'er nodded, and jumped into the chicken pen with Lian Zhi'er and Xiao Qi. There are more than a dozen chickens in the house, only three are roosters, and the rest are hens, and they are all hens laying eggs.
In the eyes of a child, this work is similar to the nature of a game. There were two of them, and Xiao Qi got up to play, chasing a nimble little hen and clucking, running around the chicken pen.
Zhou didn't care about him, and only let Lian Man'er and Lian Zhi'er catch chickens.
These chickens are being fed by these children, so they are not afraid of them. Lian Man'er quickly grabbed a reed chicken and handed it to Zhou.
Zhou took the hen and held it in his arms, holding the hen down with one hand and reaching out to the hen's buttocks with the other.
Lian Man'er watched with some embarrassment as Zhou's fingers reached into the chicken's buttocks. What are you doing here?
Zhou quickly withdrew his fingers and let go of the hen.
"This one doesn't have an egg today."
As Zhou spoke, he took another hen handed by Lian Zhi'er, still concocting the same method.
"It's just one egg,...... Today there are a total of five eggs. Zhou finally announced.
"The milk is accurate, and it has never come out." Lian Zhi'er said softly.
It turns out that this method is used to find out if the hens will lay eggs today, and it is really ...... Direct.
"Milk is really capable." As far as the facts are concerned, this is definitely a unique skill, at least that's what Lian Man'er thinks.
"Show me all the dots." Zhou said loudly to He who came out of the wing, "One less egg, I'm not done with you." ”
"Chickens lay more eggs and less eggs, what does it matter to me." He twisted his face, smashed the curtain and went into the house again.
"Milk, no one wants to steal eggs." Lian Zhi'er said with a smile in Lian Man'er's ear.
"Second aunt, often stealing eggs?" Lian Man'er reacted quickly.
Lian Zhi'er pursed her lips and smiled.
It turns out that Zhou is not afraid of touching the chicken butt every day, not only to pre-empt the production of eggs, but also to prevent the children from stealing eggs.
