Chapter 4: Troubled Hearts
The silkworms of the Yun family are ripe, and the three of them gathered around the basket to watch the silkworms spin silk, Yun Er shook his head and followed the silkworm learning, and after a while, he was going to be dizzy, holding Yun Da's legs, and quietly watching the bacon busy, the bacon was very busy, but the Yun brothers couldn't help with anything, not at all, how to place the silkworm only the bacon knows, this is a life skill that the peasant girl must learn.
Not only Yun Da, Yun Er is here, Yun San and the watchman snake are also here, there are two pairs of green eyes in the dark place, it is very terrifying, the torches in Dousha Village have not been extinguished since three days ago, all the people are busy for these creatures, one is not careful, the cocoon will not form well, and a spring will be in vain.
The old patriarch personally came to the Yun family to inspect the silkworm cocoon, picked up a cocoon that had been formed and tossed it in his hand, and the wrinkled old face was full of smiles: "Very good cocoon, bacon is not lazy, she is a diligent woman!" ”
The diligent woman is the greatest praise of the elders for the little girl, the smiling face of the bacon is red, although she has not slept all night, but the spirit is strong, as more and more silkworms begin to spin silk, silkworms also need to be placed more and more frequently.
Labor is full of beauty, all the dance is actually derived from labor, the two little hands of bacon are like shuttles in the shuttle, the copper hook hanging on the sleeve is constantly flashing with gold in the jumping firelight, and a qiē object in labor is more precious than gold in Yun Zheng's opinion.
Although the Yun family does not rely on these cocoons to eat, they dare not underestimate these cocoons at all, and the whole family goes into battle together to congratulate these beautiful creatures and congratulate him on finally growing from an ant silkworm to a mature silkworm.
Yun Er slept very well on Yun Da's shoulder, saliva soaked his shoulder, the bacon didn't know how many times he urged Yun Da, Yun Da still smiled and didn't want to leave, in such a busy spring night, even if he couldn't help, he should accompany him, the Chinese nation has relied on these silkworms for thousands of years, without them there would be no so-called Silk Road, who dares to underestimate!
At dawn, more than a dozen silkworms in the basket began to spin silk, how magnificent the white and vast area, at this time, the bacon had the time to drink saliva and wipe sweat, when Yunda brought her a bowl of poached eggs, the bacon was stunned for a moment, Yun Er took his tongue and licked the corners of his mouth full of egg yolk and said: "Eat it, I have already eaten, Yunda doesn't like to eat eggs, he always says that eggs are stinky and are pulled out of the chicken buttocks." ”
The bacon carefully passed the rice bowl, and began to eat eggs one by one with red eyes.
Yun Da glanced at the basket and nodded with satisfaction, and said to the bacon: "Our silk is not sold, all woven into silk, let's make our own clothes to wear, and the bacon also has to prepare a wedding dress, rest assured, I'll get you the gold thread." ”
I don't know why, after listening to Yun Da's words, the tears of the bacon fell down with a click, and a drop fell into the steaming soup bowl.
Yun Er said arrogantly: "Don't marry bacon, she can only marry me if she wants to marry!" After saying that, he kicked Yunda in the leg, and then ran over and put his mouth next to the bacon ear and said small words.
The bacon wiped a handful of tears and whispered to Yun Zheng: "Young Master, we have too few silkworms in our house, and we can't weave much silk, so when I raise a lot of silkworms next year, let's make clothes again, okay?" "This is because I am worried that if my clothes are ready, Yunda will marry her.
Yun Zheng's nose was sour, and he touched the head of the bacon and said: "If you like to stay at home, I can't ask for it, you can stay as long as you want, until you want to get married." ”
At this moment, Yun Zheng forgot that he was only thirteen or fourteen years old, and he thought he was the bearded uncle of the year, and the bacon's face began to turn red again, which made Yun Er very jealous, and he began to kick Yun Da's calf again.
The annoying rooster began to crow, this is a lazy egg, other chickens have already crowed, it has just begun, called two throats and began to capture hens all over the world, and it has to step on the hen to show off its majesty.
Yun Da picked up the flat shoulder and prepared to go to the river to fetch water, but was snatched away by the stubborn bacon, the eldest young master is a man, how can he go to carry water, he will be laughed at by those long-tongued women.
"Bacon, are you going to sell your silk this year? The official family wants to collect taxes, those merchants bully us every year that we have no money, at this time the price of silk is the cheapest, I said, who takes the tax of 100 cents to look at him, and give it to him if he wants it, this year my family's silk is not sold, and I have to wait until the price is the highest to sell. Let those black-hearted merchants stare in vain. “
One woman spoke, and the rest of the women opened their mouths and laughed, for in their opinion, this was the most angry time in the world, and it was better not to laugh at this time.
The bacon also laughed, and said proudly after laughing: "The eldest young master said, my family's silk is not sold, all of them are used to make clothes for the little master, the child's skin and flesh are tender, and the close-fitting clothes are always hard and pouting linen clothes are not good, the cotton cloth is always smoked, and there are pleats everywhere after wearing it for a day, or the best silk is used, the most close, and it looks expensive." ”
The lame mother-in-law squeezed her eyebrows and quietly asked bacon: "Your eldest young master is a capable person, the reason why our village is better this year is all thanks to the blessing of the eldest young master, bacon, you can help your aunt to thank the eldest young master." ”
The bacon said inexplicably: "How thank you, the food I make is not as delicious as the eldest young master's cooking, and you can't do it too, auntie, the eggs sent over last time were eaten by the little young master, and the eldest young master doesn't eat eggs." ”
The lame woman slapped the bacon on the head and said hatefully: "Melon girl, who wants you to cook for him." ”
"And how can you thank you?" The bacon was a little aggrieved.
"The lame mother-in-law means that she is too old and your young master can't look down on her, so let you drill your young master's bed for her! Hahaha" The mother-in-law with blue ears said a word, not only the lame mother-in-law couldn't breathe with laughter, but the rest of the mother-in-law also rolled on the ground with their stomachs in their arms.
When she entered the door of the village, she saw the Liang family's convoy parked in the village, and the beautiful lady of the Liang family stood on the wheel, looking at the house from a distance, the bacon was in a hurry, and the soles of the feet were mixed, and immediately fell to the ground, the two buckets rolled out far away, the palms were broken, and the knees were probably broken, and the bacon wanted to cry, not because of the pain in the body, but because the eldest lady of the Liang family was smiling and watching herself wrestle.
