Chapter 207: Sunning Valley

Seeing that there was business coming to the door, where would Yu Chi refuse, so he promised to send six watermelons to the door every day, so that there was no need for Xu to go out and then specially explain to her to buy watermelons, Shen Mei took the basket out and exchanged the basket containing watermelons for Chi, Yu Chi took Shen Lan's business, and naturally had a smile on his face when he left.

Xu's vegetables were also bought, and Shen Mei naturally couldn't play Jiugong chess anymore, so she went into the house to help deal with chickens, fish and pick up vegetables, and after a while, Xu's washed a plate of peaches and put them on a small table, the peaches were not big, one was the size of a child's fist, but the color was very beautiful, half of it was red and bright, and half of it was a little green.

Shen Lan took one for Shen Wei, and just wanted to take one for the stone, but suddenly remembered that the stone couldn't bite, although. Milk. The teeth have grown a lot, but there is no strength, a little hard things can't bite off, this peach is hard in the hand, naturally not as good as the peach she ate in her previous life, the skin can be peeled off, and the meat inside can be bitten off without much effort, so this peach is naturally not good to take directly to the stone to eat.

"Xiangyun, you take two peaches to the house and let Mother Xu cut them into small pieces and put them in a bowl." Saying that, Shen Lan reached out to pick up her son, Xiangyun hurriedly handed over the stone, and took two peaches to the house after agreeing, Shen Wei on the side had already taken the peaches and started to gnaw, the crunchy peaches were very sweet in the mouth, and the crunchy taste was also very good.

"Eldest sister, don't be used to stones, it's good to bite and eat." Shen Wei bit the peach while persuading Shen Lan, sometimes she really thinks that her eldest sister is too hairy with stones, and a child as big as a stone is not running all over the ground. But the stone is good, and when you don't play, the three little girls take turns to hug it, so that the stone doesn't like to walk.

Shen Lan didn't think much about it, but replied: "The stone is still small, and the teeth are weak, just wait for him to be older." ”

"Eldest sister, you just love stones too much, this is not good, what can you do if you are pampered in the future?" People in this era uphold the principle of strict discipline for children, whether it is a boy or a girl. Of course, there are some patriarchal families. Girls will suffer more, and there are not many children like Shen Lan.

Shen Lan scoffed at this, Shi is still young and knows something, it doesn't matter if this is a little petted. You can't leave the bad and bad things to the children like others. Then treat the child as if it were a private property. It's not that people in this era don't love children, or anything else, it's just that there are certain problems in the thinking of people in this era. I always feel that it is a waste of good things for children to use, unlike Shen Lan's time, all good things are left for children, Shen Lan came from that place after all, and it is actually difficult to identify with the education methods of this era.

Therefore, in fact, Shen Lan not only spoiled the stone, that is, Shen Wei and Shen Hailing lived with her before, and they were not less spoiled by her, but at that time, Shen Wei and Shen Hailing were slightly older, and many habits had been cultivated by the Shen couple, even if Shen Lan had the heart to spoil them, they would not accept it as a matter of course like the stone.

"Xiaowei, the stone is still small, just like the seedlings in the field, it needs to be cared for, and when he is older, it will naturally not be like this." At this time, children are prone to die young, is it not the fault of adults, many parents and elders will ignore their children, Shen Lan herself has not been a mother before, but after the stone was born, she is very careful, compared to many teenage mothers, Shen Lan is a mother in her thirties, no matter how psychological age is there, naturally she spoils her children more.

Shen Wei saw that her eldest sister didn't feel wrong, so she knew that persuasion was ineffective, so she shook her head and didn't say anything more, and after a while, Xiangyun brought out the cut peaches, Shen Lan held her son and slowly fed him with a small spoon, the stone has followed Shen Lan since he was a child, and he loves fruits very much, when he was at home on weekdays, Shen Lan could also secretly take the fruit out to feed him, and now when he arrived at Shen's house, there were many people and Shen Lan didn't take out the fruit once, so the stone didn't eat other fruits except watermelons, At this time, I was naturally happy to eat peaches.

simply snatched the spoon from his mother's hand, scooped the fruit and sent it to his mouth, Shen Lan didn't care about him when he saw it, just held the bowl with the hand holding the stone, and took a peach with the other hand and ate it, this peach is very fresh, it is not sour in the mouth, but crisp and sweet, after all, it is a green pure natural product, and it is not long to pick, it is naturally delicious.

Here, Shen Lan just finished eating a peach, when she heard movement outside the courtyard, she turned her head and looked out of the courtyard gate, it turned out that the person who picked the grass head came back, and the one who walked in front looked like Yuan Hao, Yuan Hao's was already tall, and at this time, he had two loads of sturdy rice on his shoulders, but he didn't bend his waist, he still strode towards this side, and followed others one after another behind him.

"Xiaowei, go and see if there is herbal tea in the house? The straw pickers are back. Shen Lan turned back to Shen Wei and said.

"Hey." Shen Wei got up from the chair in response, trotted into the house, there were still peaches left in front of Shen Lan, Shen Lan thought that these people who were working were also tired, so she put the stone aside and sat down, took the plate with peaches and walked out.

Yuan Hao put the grass on his shoulders to the ground, touched the sweat on his face, and was just about to turn around and leave, when he met Shen Lan, who came with money, and suddenly smiled and showed a mouthful of white teeth: "Why did you come out?" It's sunny outside, and it's sunny. ”

Shen Lan stretched out the saucer in her hand to him, and said with a smile: "I see you coming back from afar, it just so happens that I have a few peaches here, which have been washed, you take them and eat them first, I asked Xiaowei to get the herbal tea out, drink saliva and then go." ”

Yuan Hao was not polite, he reached out and picked one up from there, opened his mouth and took a bite, at this time the others also came back, and when he saw the appearance of Shen Lan and Yuan Hao, he couldn't help but joke: "Sister-in-law Song, you are too partial to the second master, if you have a peach, you will send it to the second master, and we people will have no share?" ”

Suddenly, Shen Lan blushed a little when she was said, and hurriedly said: "Who said that, didn't you see Yuan Hao come first, well, you have divided a few of these peaches, and I will get them later." ”

"That's pretty much it." The man unceremoniously served the peaches from the plate. Then he threw it at the other people who had laid down the grass, "And then." ”

There are not many peaches, so they are not enough, Shen Lan turned around and was about to walk towards the house, but Yuan Hao didn't say anything, just waited for people to walk into the house, and then kicked the person who was making a fuss.

"What are you talking about, this is not Black Tiger Mountain, I don't know what you can say and what you can't say?" Yuan Hao whispered.

"Second master, you are too cowardly. If you really fall in love with Sister-in-law Song. I grabbed it directly to the mountain, and I was upset when I looked at it crookedly. The man didn't say anything polite to Yuan Hao, and taught him a lesson.

"Yes, the second master shouldn't be afraid of her man." The other man was nibbling on a peach. He said with a smile.

"What nonsense. The sisters of the Shen family helped us so much. How can we harm her reputation? Yuan Hao angrily shouted at everyone, "Don't say this in the future, I don't like to hear it." My sister and the Shen family are in-laws, don't make a fool of yourself, if you talk nonsense, go back and let my eldest brother clean you up. ”

Yuan Hao grew up watching these bandits since he was a child, so the majesty in the village is not as good as Yuan Tian, and he doesn't care about the things in the cottage, so he can get along with the brothers in the village, and he will make fun of each other on weekdays, but even so, his prestige in the village is still there, especially now that the business in the cottage is in charge, these people will laugh at him on the surface, but they will not disobey the discipline, otherwise he can't bring someone down the mountain to help.

Seeing that Yuan Hao even moved out of the big boss, it was not easy for others to say anything, speaking of which, if it wasn't for Shen Lan's help last year, the people in the cottage would be hungry, so thinking about it, everyone also has a correct attitude, such a joke on the mountain is nothing, but after all, this is under the mountain, if it makes people serious, it is really bad for Shen Lan's reputation, and these people are not ignorant, so naturally they will not talk about this matter again.

After a while, the three sisters of the Shen family came out of the house, Shen Lan carried a basket in her hand, the basket contained a small half basket of peaches, Shen Mei carried a wooden barrel, which seemed to be very heavy, and Shen Wei in the back was holding a stack of bowls, it seemed that the wooden barrel was probably herbal tea.

In a blink of an eye, the three sisters came to everyone, Shen Lan carried a basket to distribute peaches, and Shen Mei and Shen Wei took a bowl of tea and scooped tea for the grass pickers to drink, they had been warned by Yuan Hao just now, these people did not coax again, obediently took the food and drink, thanked them and drank water and ate fruits by the way.

The last to come back were Shen Changhai and Shen Er, Shen Lan also gave them peaches and water, the people in front had already rested, so they carried the grass and walked in the direction of the field, Shen Lan asked Shen Mei to go to the house to get a kettle and fill another pot of water, and told Shen Changhai to bring the remaining peaches and water to the field for others when he went to the field.

Shen Changhai nodded, rested with Shen Da for a while and got up and left, naturally he didn't forget to bring water and a basket of peaches when he left, seeing that everyone was gone, Shen Mei walked to the bundled grain, dragged the grain to his own lawn with great difficulty, and then untied the straw rope, looking like it was to dry the grain, after all, most of the rice picked back from the field was still wet, so the grains were easy to fall off when they were dried and so on.

Seeing Shen Mei helping to dry the grain, Shen Lan also walked over to help, but told Shen Wei to go back and let the Xu family boil some more water, put it in a bucket and put it outside the yard, and when the person who picked the grass came back, he could take a bowl of water and drink it himself.

Shen Lan and Shen Mei didn't do it for a while, Xu and Xiangyun also ran out, and Xu's mouth muttered: "Madam, how can you do this, hurry up and sit in the courtyard, just let Xiangyun and I come." ”

The Xu family didn't expect Shen Lan to help dry the grain, and suddenly had an opinion on the Shen family in her heart, no matter what, her wife helped the family so much, how could she still let her do these heavy jobs by herself, and it was not that there was no labor.

"It's okay, I've done it before." Shen Lan explained with a smile.

"Madam, you have a body in your body, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the child, where is such a rough job suitable for you." Xu's mouth persuaded, but her eyes looked at Shen Mei, where did she not understand that nine times out of ten it was the second lady who started with it, obviously she just came out to deliver water, but she took this matter up, she also understood that the second miss didn't have any ideas, but she couldn't change her previous habits, she couldn't help but do it when she saw the work, and it was a little better when she was in the Shen house, this time the Shen family returned to its original little family spirit, after all, it was the wife's maiden family, and the Xu family didn't interfere much, just waiting to go back and mention it to his wife.

Shen Lan was stunned when she heard this, but she also remembered it, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and Shen Mei over there also persuaded: "Eldest sister, you are still quite Mother Xu, go back and sit with Xiaowei and Shishi." ”

Shen Mei has always been used to it, seeing that Yuan Hao and the others were gone, she didn't untie the millet and dry it, she was worried that the millet was suffocated, so she didn't say anything and did it herself, and she didn't care when she saw Shen Lan come to help, after all, she had been in the countryside for a long time, and she had seen other pregnant women helping to do the work, so she didn't care, and now she was mentioned by Xu, and she was suddenly embarrassed, her eldest sister was different from usual today, why did she let her eldest sister accompany her to work together?

Knowing that her body was inconvenient, Shen Lan didn't need to be pretentious, put down the work in her hand and entered the house, outside the house, Xu took Xiangyun and hurriedly spread out the millet to dry, but when she did it, she inevitably came to something and said: "Second Miss, now that my wife has asked someone to teach you the female red and the rules, I don't want you to help dry the millet in the future, these jobs should be done less in the future, otherwise I am afraid that it will be a waste of my wife's heart." ”

After all, the Xu family is from a big family, where is the young lady and wife of a big family doing these rough jobs, Shen Mei actually took Shen Lan to do this today, she was naturally angry in her heart, and her own wife's temperament Xu also found out a little, obviously she is a woman from a Zhuang family, but she is not the kind of character who is so industrious that she can't stop for a moment, so this initiative to dry the grain is definitely not led by her own wife, but the second lady can't change the character of this Zhuang family, and she has to do the work when she sees it.

Shen Mei blushed slightly, helping her parents do things was an education she received from childhood to adulthood, but now she has been told, Shen Mei is somewhat aggrieved, but she doesn't dare to talk back to Xu, after all, Xu is also half of her master, and she also teaches her a lot of things on weekdays, so she can only bear it when she is told by Xu.

Xiangyun is still young, and she doesn't like to talk on weekdays, although she listened to Xu's lesson to Shen Mei, she didn't talk much, but honestly dragged the grain and straw stacks to the drying field to dry rice, and Shen Mei, who was wronged, could only endure the grievances and work silently, but she was also a little uncomfortable in her heart, but this girl hadn't grown crooked, but she didn't have any bad attitude towards Shen Lan or Xu.
