Chapter 295: Reason
Hearing Lian Shouxin ask like this, everyone was stunned.
“…… Today, you can't get off the ground, right? Zhang said with some hesitation.
"I just went home." Lian Shouxin lowered his eyelids, "There is still half of the land in the upper room that has not been planted, and I can't get in the morning, and the old man is anxious to get on fire, saying that I have to go and see it in the next morning." ”
Even the old man is an acute person, everyone knows this.
"Our land is almost planted, and there are only sweet potatoes left, and we have to wait two days to plant them. We still have a plow stick, and in the next two days, I plan to go over and help the old man do two days of work. Lian Shouxin slowly raised his head and said, "Come on, let's rest here, see the old man working in the field, I can't bear it." Second, let's go and help, the land can be planted quickly, so that the old man will not be on fire and lie down again. ”
Not only did he have to go, but he also had to bring a calf and a plough stick for the sake of Chapter 295, and it seemed that he had to go with the whole family. said one or two reasons, in fact, it all boils down to one place, all for the sake of the old man.
"The land will be planted soon, and the people who can save the house will not stop. In the past two days, I haven't seen the big guy have a straight face, and he hasn't smiled all day long. "Even keep your word and say.
"If you don't farm, you haven't seen my milk smile when she looks like it." Lian Man'er couldn't help but say.
It's not that Zhou can't laugh, it's just that her smile has never been given to them. Come to think of it, Lian Shouxin should have seen it when he was a child, Lian Man'er glanced at Lian Shouxin.
"Your grandmother is not ......, let's get down to business." Even keep the word.
Lian Shouxin wanted to discuss with them and help with the house and farming.
Zhang and several children exchanged glances with each other.
"Dad, aren't you tired?" Lian Man'er was the first to speak, "In the past few days, in the shop and in the field, you haven't even slept for a while." If you go and help with the farming, my father will be happy. But if you're really tired. Doesn't my grandfather have to worry about you too? ”
"But no, you should also rest, you are beaten by iron?" As he spoke, Zhang took a piece of fat and lean meat from the dish. Sent into the bowl of Lian Shouxin.
In the past few days, the reason for Chapter 295 of He is that even one of them is trustworthy, that is, the Zhang family, and even Man'er's children, they are also tired. Therefore, although the land has been planted, her family's food standard is still the same as when she planted the land.
Lian Shouxin took a bite of rice fiercely. Together with the meat that Zhang gave him, he ate it together. Lian Man'er and Zhang's words reminded him that he was a big man, he was tired, and Zhang and several children were afraid that they were more tired than him.
"Dad, I see that the grass in our garden has grown, it's time to pull the weeds." Lian Man'er said again. Newly opened land, fertile soil. The dishes are growing very well. But it is precisely because of the new land reclamation that there are many weeds. "My brother and Xiao Qi have been working for the past two days, and their farm vacation is not a few days away. It's time to read books, too. ”
"And the yard behind our new shop, a lot of things should be packed up as soon as possible." Zhang said.
Even Man'er and Zhang's are telling the truth, they do have a lot of work to do.
"Let's get into the field, if I can get in the field, I'll pull out the grass from the vegetable garden first." Lian Shouxin thought for a while.
There is a saying in the Zhuang family, which is called melon and vegetable grain for half a year. These days, there is enough rain, and if we allow the weeds to grow wildly, one more day will reduce the harvest of vegetables and vegetables. This is equivalent to a lot less food rations for the family.
In the past two days, they have eaten leeks twice, once from their neighbor Chunzhu's house. Once Lian Man'er went to the market to buy it. In the garden in the backyard of the upper house, there are many leeks. Even the old man said that he would cut it if he wanted to eat it, he agreed at the time, but he never cut it once, for this reason, he didn't want to think about it carefully. But. There is a truth, and he is clear. The family cannot rely on others for their food rations. They want to help with the house and farm the land, because their land is almost finished.
"I'll just go by myself, and your mothers will rest for a day." Lian Shouxin continued, "When the grass is finished, let's see the situation, and we have to help him." ”
"Dad, have you counted, how many people do my father and them work in the fields?" Lian Man'er asked.
Now even the old man's family farms, and there are two resident residents who stay at home to cook, namely Zhou and Lian Xiu'er, and one Zhao Xiu'e, because she is pregnant ~~-update the first ~~ and can't get pregnant. Every day, there are two people who take turns to help cook in each room. In other words, 14 of them work in the fields every day, and at least eight of them are adult laborers.
And Lian Man'er's family, the whole family went to the ground, six people, only two adult laborers, Lian Shouxin and Zhang.
The land of the two families is about the same, if it weren't for Wu Jiaxing's father and son to bring someone to help, Lian Man'er's family would have to be later than Lian Laozi and them to finish planting the land.
Therefore, this actual situation is that there is no shortage of manpower to farm the land in the upper house. Compared with the two families, even if there are calves and plough sticks, the weaker ones are Lian Man'er.
Zhang, Lian Zhi'er, Wulang and Xiao Qi all nodded, and Lian Man'er was right.
"Our family's business is not old and young." Zhang's pointedness to Lian kept his word.
"Man'er is right, but now, aren't we going to finish it first?" Lian Shouxin thought for a while and said, "That's it, I'll ask the old man, if you can help us." "According to what I mean, although we are separated, why don't we help to work for a day and a half, so that his father and his grandmother are happy, and this big guy looks like we are a big family."
"When it's done, deduct the money from Dad's salary, let's buy more meat, dumplings stuffed with meatballs, Zhi'er, Man'er, Wulang, Xiaoqi, what do you want to buy, you will buy it when you catch up with the market, it will be deducted from Dad's salary."
Knowing that it would be tiring to work in the field, Lian Shouxin was busy throwing material rewards and coaxing a few children.
Living in a crowd, you have to take into account the opinions of the people around you. The Zhuang family is particularly filial piety, and even the trustworthy family made concessions, and the Zhang family and several children also nodded in the end.
"Let people look and be kind, then when we eat, it's better to go home and cook by ourselves." Lian Man'er smiled.
"Man'er is right to be worried." Zhang nodded.
Lian Shouxin's brows furrowed slightly. They went to help with the farming, and then the whole family ate together, which was undoubtedly a commendable and beautiful scene. However, when they did go to eat, they were afraid that Zhang and the children would be looked down upon. If they finish their work and go home to eat by themselves, this will undoubtedly make Old Man Lian's face look very bad.
Even Shouxin was a little entangled.
After lunch, although Lian Shou's faith was entangled, he still went to the vegetable garden to pull weeds. Wulang and Xiaoqi went to Mr. Lu's residence in the temple to study, leaving only Zhang's, Lian Zhi'er and Lian Man'er's mother and daughter in the shop.
Lian Man'er set the table and spread out the account book to calculate today's income and expenditure accounts. Zhang and Lian Zhi'er took out needles and threads and did work on the opposite side.
"Mother, today my sister and I are at the old house, and my sister-in-law and sister-in-law Xiu'e went to our house and chatted with me." Lian Man'er quickly finished settling the accounts, so she grabbed some jujubes and huā and asked Zhang and Lian Zhi'er to eat together.
"What's the matter?" Zhang asked.
"Talking about my sister's family." Lian Man'er laughed.
Zhang glanced at Lian Zhi'er busily, Lian Zhi'er lowered his head to do his work and did not speak.
"What did they both say?" Seeing that Lian Zhi'er didn't react, Zhang continued to ask Lian Man'er.
"As soon as my sister-in-law said this, she asked my aunt to leave." Lian Man'er said. Jiang Shi seemed to have something to say later, and it seemed that he did not continue because of Lian Xiu'er's interruption. "Xiu'e's sister-in-law said that the old Jin family is not good."
Lian Man'er told Zhang Shixue what Zhao Xiu'e said about Lao Jin.
"Don't listen to her. Even if we don't get close to the old Jin family, we won't arrange people like this. To be fair, there is nothing else except for bearding and usury. Zhang waved his hand, as if driving away flies, and said, "You don't know, I only heard about it in the past two days." "Your sister-in-law Xiu'e, I told the fourth son of the Lao Jin family before."
Lian Man'er's eyes widened, expecting Zhang to continue. Lian Zhi'er also raised her head curiously and looked at Zhang.
“…… Lao Zhao's family is rushing to the old Jin family, and the people of the picture family are living a good life, and the old four people of the old Jin family are good, and they are a character when they go out. It was the old Jin family who didn't take a fancy to her, and the old Zhao family asked someone to come to the door to say peace, but the old Jin family didn't pay attention to them. Later, I said it to Liujiacun, because the dowry was yellow, so I said it to Erlang. ”
"Oh." Lian Man'er let out a long sigh, it turned out that Zhao Xiu'e slandered the old Jin family so much because she had been rejected, so she was envious, jealous and hateful.
"No wonder my sister said what the old Jin family is like, it's none of our business, sister-in-law Xiu'e is so happy." Lian Man'er said.
Zhang glanced at Lian Zhi'er again.
"Mother, I'm not wrong, right?" Lian Zhi'er behaved very calmly.
"No, that's right." Zhang said with a smile.
"Mother, I think my sister-in-law Xiu'e looks good, why didn't the old Jin family take a fancy to her?" Lian Man'er asked Zhang.
"Well," Zhang hesitated, "I don't know much either." It seems to be ...... Your sister-in-law used to live in the county seat. ”
When Zhang said this, he refused to continue to talk about it. The reason why the old Jin family didn't take a fancy to Zhao Xiu'e was because Zhao Xiu'e seemed to have some gossip when she lived in the county. She only learned about these news in the past two days. It's not good for her to say these words in front of her two daughters.
Lian Man'er looked at Zhang's expression, and guessed that it must not be a good thing, although she wanted to know in her heart, but she knew that Zhang's would never tell her, so she dispelled the idea of continuing to ask.
"Let's just say this here, and when we go home, we can't say anything." Zhang told the two daughters.
Lian Zhi'er and Lian Man'er nodded.
"When we're done with these few days, let's take half a day to go to your third uncle's house and see your third aunt Wu and Jiayu. People have helped us a lot, and we have to thank them. Zhang added, "You both go with me." ”
"Okay." Lian Man'er said.
Zhang turned his head to look at Lian Zhi'er. !!
