Chapter 14: Big Feet and Small Feet
After Zhou touched the chicken butt, he went back to the house. Lian Xiu'er, Lian Hua'er, Lian Duo'er, and Gu Shi followed in, and closed the door. After a while, a few people went to the West House with a smile, and Zhou came out of the upper room and greeted a few girls playing in the yard.
"Go dig up a few baskets of wild vegetables and come back so that you can feed the chickens and pigs." Zhou's Road.
Even several daughters-in-law of the family take turns to do housework, including cooking for the whole family, and also feeding pigs and chickens. When it is the turn of the house to be on duty, it is the children in the room who go to the field to dig wild vegetables. Today is Gu's class, so it should be Lian Hua'er and Lian Duo'er to dig wild vegetables.
The Zhou family still has to take care of the Gu family, but now they don't mention the matter of letting Lian Hua'er and Lian Duo'er work, but instead come to the tribe to send a few of them, what is the reason.
"Chapter 2 Chapter 14 Big Foot and Little Foot Sister," Xiao Qi pulled Lian Man'er's hand.
Lian Man'er lowered her head and saw that Xiao Qi seemed to have something to say, so she bent down slightly.
"I saw that the eldest aunt gave the old lady a pair of silver bracelets again," Xiao Qi leaned into Lian Man'er's ear and whispered, "The old aunt told her grandmother that she would not let Sister Hua'er and Sister Duo'er work." ”
I see.
Zhou spoke, if it was in normal times, even Zhi'er would definitely not say anything, and went up to catch the basket. But today, what Zhang and Lian Man'er said, they also heard it next to them. Several children naturally have ideas in their hearts.
When Zhou saw that no one was taking a stubble, his face began to look bad. But in the morning she still talked a lot about the rules, and now doing so can be said to be her own mouth.
Zhou glanced at Zhang, who was doing work at the door of the wing, and explained unprecedentedly.
"The fourth daughter-in-law, the flowers are about to leave the pavilion, and the dowry will be embroidered. She and Duo'er are both small feet, how can they get off the ground? In the future, it will be their turn to dig wild vegetables, and let a few children in the family help with this work of digging wild vegetables. ”
"Okay, mother." Zhang happily agreed, she still had the same idea, she was tired of work, and she didn't want to care.
Zhou's face looked much better. She knew very well in her heart that when it came to working diligently, she was really not lazy, and she had to be the big-footed and small-footed Zhang family in Chapter 14. Even the children with the four rooms are all diligent, which makes it very easy to arouse.
"Zhi'er, Wulang, Man'er, one of you digs a basket and comes back, and you go too." Zhou saw He leading Lian Ya'er out at a glance, and hurriedly stopped them.
"Mother," He Shi stopped, "Ya'er will also wrap her little feet in the past two days, and she can't go to the ground." ”
"How old are the buds, can you still wrap them without skipping words. When Zhou heard He say this, his eyes widened, "In the past, you always said that it was wrapped, and you were afraid of pain, so you couldn't wrap it every time." You just don't want to work."
"Mother, this time I told Ya'er that I must wrap it. Ya'er's sister Hua'er is going to marry into the Sun family, her uncle is going to be an official, and Ya'er can also marry into a rich family in the future, of course, she has to bind her feet. He said.
"I've been wrapping it up for the past two days, and I'm going to wrap her this time." Zhou thought about it and said. Obviously, he agreed with Ho's statement.
In the past two days, Lian Man'er has noticed that among the women of the Lian family, Zhou's, Gu's, Lianhua'er and Lian Duo'er are all small-footed, and Zhang's, He's, Zhao's, Lian Zhi'er, Lian Ye'er, Lian Ya'er and her are not bound to their feet. Listening to He's meaning, women from rich and noble families have to bind their feet.
Bound feet and rich people, not bound feet and ordinary village families, Lian Man'er did not hesitate to choose the latter.
She didn't bind her feet before, but now that the boss of the Lian family wants to be an official, the Zhou family must feel that the family is too high, so she won't want her to bind her feet, right? Even the Zhang family must think that it is a good thing that her daughter is bound to her feet and can marry into a good family in the future. She doesn't want it, who will save her. Lian Man'er was scared and wanted to hide her feet.
Lian Man'er's movements were more obvious, but they attracted Zhou's eyes to turn to her two feet.
"Man'er's feet ......" Zhou's gaze stayed on Lian Man'er's feet for a moment, if it is said that among the granddaughters of the Lian family, Lian Man'er's appearance is the best, which is why the Gu family chose her to be a child daughter-in-law. Lian Man'er is now ten years old, and her feet are a little late, but fortunately, her feet are not big, and now she can wrap a pair of small feet, and she will have to marry into a big family in the future.
Zhou was about to say that even Man'er would wrap his feet together, but after thinking about it, no, he had to wait for Boss Lian to become an official, and he didn't know how much time it would take, and most of the work at home would be done by the fourth family, if even Man'er wrapped his feet, there would be one less person to do the work at home. At the beginning, he married a small-footed woman to his eldest son, and later several daughters-in-law were all deliberately selected big-footed women, also for the consideration of sharing housework.
"Man'er is too old, and she can't wrap her little feet now, so forget it." Zhou spoke.
Lian Man'er was almost crying with joy as if she had been pardoned. Of course, she didn't know Zhou's calculations, and she looked at Zhou's eyes with a little more gratitude.
"I listen to milk." Even the vines are crisp and authentic.
Zhou looked at Lian Man'er's clear eyes, and twisted his head away a little uncomfortably.
Zhang bowed his head gloomily on the side.
Zhou assigned the task of placing a few baskets of wild vegetables, and several children were about to go out, and they were called into the house by Zhang first.
"All wear straw hats, and now the sun is shining." Zhang took out a straw hat and gave it to a few children, and looked at Lian Man'er again, "Man'er's head injury is not healed, so don't go." ”
"Mother, I'll go with my brother and sister for the second sister's sake." Xiao Qi took the initiative to ask.
"It's enough for me and Wulang to dig more, and Xiao Qi is playing with Man'er at home." Lian Zhi'er said.
Even Gorou nodded.
The children are sensible, very diligent, and friendly with each other, and Zhang feels very pleased.
"That'll do fine." Zhang nodded.
"Mother, I'm going." Lian Man'er disagreed, she didn't want to be stuffy in the house. She wanted to go outside, and she didn't want a few kids to do the work for her.
Afraid that Zhang's would not agree, Lian Man'er said again: "Mother, my head doesn't hurt anymore." It's stuffy in the house, I'll go out for a walk, maybe it'll get better sooner. ”
Zhang thought about it, digging wild vegetables was not a hard job, and besides, Lian Zhi'er and Goro took care of Lian Man'er, so he nodded.
"Man'er, you sit on the kang, and my mother will wrap your feet." Zhang greeted Lian Man'er.
What? Even Man'er's frightened face turned white, and she dodged and hid behind Lian Zhi'er.
"Mother, I don't wrap my feet." Lian Man'er said. She thought that Zhang didn't want her to lose at the starting line, so she wanted to wrap her feet herself.
Lian Zhi'er, Goro, and Xiaoqi all laughed.
"Second sister, you're still so afraid of binding your feet, haha......" Xiao Qixiao's big eyes narrowed.
Binding your feet is disabled, and you still laugh at Lian Man'er's accusations in your heart.
Lian Zhi'er smiled and pulled Lian Man'er over.
"Don't be afraid, it's not the kind of person who binds his feet and doesn't hurt."
Is there still one or the other way to wrap your feet, and is there anything that doesn't hurt? Lian Man'er didn't believe it, this must be telling the child that the medicine is not bitter, in order to trick the child into drinking the medicine.
"I don't want to bind my feet." Lian Man'er watched Zhang take a ball of gauze and walk towards her, she wanted to cry.
