Chapter 32: A Man Who Fears His Daughter-in-law

The long bolt said dissatisfiedly: "Look at what you say about me, I have that spare time, I might as well do more work, but since we are going back to the village, we should take these cloths and cover them, otherwise it will be difficult for people to see it." ”

Mu Xiang said with a smile: "Brother Changzhuan thinks far, I'll cover it." ”

Stacked good things, the long bolt drove the donkey, and the three of them went home.

This time they didn't delay, and they came back before lunch. The long bolt directly drove the cart to the outside of the broken courtyard wall of Mu Xiang's house, and left it here, so that no one could see it. When passing by the door of Li Dashan's house, Chen Mei'e stretched out her head, and wanted to ask what was pulled in the car, but she was glared back by Mu Xiang's eyes.

Da Mei laughed, and said that Mu Xiang was majestic yesterday, and she also scared the other-stirring sticks in the village, otherwise would Chen Mei'e be able to see her slip away?

Mu Ran didn't think so, Chen Mei'e was afraid that the good people would go to her house to ask for things again, so she avoided it.

The long bolt helped Mu Xiang finish moving things, and went to see the adobe drying, if the sun has been so good, two more days of drying, you can build the courtyard wall.

Mu Xiang wanted to leave them for lunch, but Da Mei smiled and said that when she repaired the wall of the courtyard, she would also come to help, and it would not be too late to come back to eat then.

Caiyun was busy watching the little hens, the chickens that had just been bought were born, and the grass ropes were tied to the chicken paws, and when they arrived in a strange place, the little hens were all shrunk together, staring around vigilantly.

Mu Lang hugged Heibao and also came up to take a look. The hen was already scared enough, but now when she saw Heibao leaning over, she was suddenly frightened, if she hadn't been tied to her claws, she would have run away and disappeared.

Caiyun saw that the eldest sister was still packing up her things, so she stood up and went to help her, seeing a lot of rapeseeds, the eldest sister went to the town last time and also bought rapeseeds, this time she bought them again, Caiyun was worried, "Eldest sister, you buy so many rapeseeds, can we grow them?" ”

Mu Xiang smiled and put the rapeseed into the basket, hung it on the beam of the kitchen, and said with a smile: "Of course you can plant it, these are all calculated by me, you, just put your heart in your stomach, let's hurry up and cook some food, and we have to clean up the old chicken coop in the afternoon, the door of this courtyard has not been finished yet, and the chicken has to be moved into the kitchen at night, so as not to be targeted by thieves again!" The thief she was referring to was a weasel, and this little thing was the most annoying, and he liked to steal chickens.

Caiyun responded: "Oh, we still have some corn tortillas left in our house yesterday, or should it be hot at noon?" ”

Mu Xiang has no opinion, there are too many things, it doesn't matter what you eat, as long as you fill your stomach.

After lunch, Caiyun went to dig the soil with Mu Xiang, and pulled out the green ash in the pot hole outside. Mu Xiang also picked up the dung of the thatched house for the first time, although it stinks, but in the farmer's house, the dung is also a treasure. The chemical fertilizer looks clean, but the things that can be grown are not delicious at all, and there is no farm fertilizer at all.

For the time being, the vegetable garden could not be stacked high, so Mu Xiang took a shovel and dredged the area around the vegetable garden. Dig up some soil from the garden, from right to left, and raise the vegetable plot closest to the corner of the wall a little higher, so that when it rains heavily, the rainwater can flow down the terrain into the ditch and not form a depression.

After that, dig up part of the abandoned vegetable field, turn it out and dry it, and wait for a day or two to dry it, just in time for a rainy day, you can just sprinkle rapeseeds.

In the evening, she and Caiyun went to cut water and grass around the river pond to chop firewood, Mu Lang took Hei Bao to follow them, Hei Bao walked very steadily, but walked slowly, the puppy was curious, and if he didn't greet it for a while, he didn't know where he went, but Mu Lang was very close to it.

Mu Xiang remembered that Liu Erdan said that she was going to come to Mu Lang to play in the morning, and she didn't see him when she came back, so she asked Caiyun.

Caiyun said angrily: "Liu Erdan is here, but he didn't play for a while, so he asked his mother to call him back, I see him like that, when he grows up, he is also a boy who is afraid of his mother, it's useless!" He cursed, and his hand moved faster, and he had already cut a large piece in a short time.

Mu Xiang looked at her angry little appearance, and only smiled: "Maybe he will get married in the future, and he will be afraid of his mother-in-law, this man is not ashamed of his daughter-in-law, it depends on how he is afraid of the law, if he is as afraid as Liu Mazi, it is useless, the mother-in-law is afraid of something, and he may not know what will happen in the future!" ”

Caiyun shook his head, saying that he didn't understand, "Anyway, I just see him as useless, he looks like a wreck, oh yes, he said he would come back in the afternoon, it's all here, and I didn't see a figure, and he was stopped by his mother again!" ”

"Who said I'm useless, I'm helping the family!" As he was talking, Liu Erdan came in a hurry, and before he arrived, he refuted Caiyun's words, and he was very unconvinced.

Mu Xiang straightened his waist, seeing that Liu Erdan's face was covered with sweat, and there was still blue ash on his hands, which didn't look like lying.

Seeing that he blocked his words, Caiyun was unhappy with a small face, and ignored him, just burying his head in his own work.

Mu Lang stood under the tree not far away to pick up firewood, and when he saw Liu Erdan coming, he called him with a smile, "Brother Erdan, I'll pick up firewood!" ”

"Oh, then you can pick it up," Liu Erdan didn't go over, only replied to him, and then actually helped Mu Xiang to do the work.

He made a rope with water and straw, carried them to his back, and said sullenly, "I'll send these back first." "Liu Erdan is thirteen years old this year, and he is also a half-sized young man, he can work and can top two colorful clouds, this is the difference between male and female babies.

Mu Xiang looked at his stubborn back, and couldn't help but boast to Caiyun: "Erdan, this kid is still good, but he was affected by his mother, otherwise he would be a good baby!" She taught Liu Erdan a lesson yesterday and successfully suppressed the arrogance of this young man. Without arrogance, he is just an ordinary peasant boy.

In the evening, with the help of Liu Erdan, I really cut a lot of grass.

Mu Xiang saw that Liu Erdan was panting tiredly, so he left him for dinner. When she came back at noon, she kneaded the dough, which would be just right to steam the steamed buns, and the small fish pickled yesterday was steamed with sauce, and a piece of lard was put into it, and the salted fish that was steamed out was eaten with steamed buns, and it was very fragrant.

While she was cooking, Caiyun carried the vegetable basket and went to the vegetable garden to pick the red peppers.

Liu Erdan was playing with Mu Lang in the yard, and when he saw her go out, he pulled Mu Lang to help her out.

Pick the chili peppers, chop them at night, add salt, stir them, put them in the jar, carefully seal the mouth, and there will be red peppers every day in the future, and you can chop some chili sauce every day.

Not long after, the smell of steamed buns wafted from the kitchen of the broken thatched house.

Liu Erdan devoured it, he couldn't eat more than six steamed buns, and the steamed buns made of Mu Xiang were not small, seeing that he ate so fragrantly, even Mu Lang had to worry about whether he would be strangled to death.

Mu Xiang still couldn't help but remind him that he had just eaten steamed buns, don't drink water, otherwise it would be really possible to support him.
