As the saying goes: things gather by like, people by groups, she Shen Lan is now poor and white, where can she make friends with others, and the reputation of the family is not very good, and the average family probably has a face with her, and is willing to take care of her a few words, as for deep friendship, I am afraid that there will be no deep friendship.

Thinking about this clearly, Shen Lan didn't say anything more, but stuffed all the rags into the basket she brought, and then went out, and Sister-in-law Wen continued to stay behind the counter to watch her cloth and shop.

When she went out, Shen Lan didn't plan to go shopping, after all, most of the people in Songjiapu knew the people in Songjia Village, and it was not convenient for her to do something, and she bought some cloth to go back, wanting to see if she could make some small hang-ups, and wait until Qingming to take them to the county to sell them.

Shen Lan remembers that when she was a child, her grandmother was a tailor, and she would make a lot of small puppets during the Dragon Boat Festival every year, and she traveled to Zhejiang, and she once saw some sachets.

In addition, although Shen Lan has never done any needlework, cross-stitch was popular in her student days, and she also embroidered a few pairs with the fashion, so she can be regarded as good at holding needles, but cross-stitch is a special material after all, and it is different from ordinary fabrics, so she doesn't know if she can make things by herself if she buys these cloths.

Shen Lan walked back to the village, passed by the door of Song San's sister-in-law's house, and saw many people sitting there waiting to use the stone mortar to make rice noodles, which was very lively.

"Lan Niang, where did you come back, I bought a lot of cloth." A very naïve mother-in-law greeted Shen Lan with a smile.

"Aunt Hu, where did Lan Niang buy the cloth, it's obviously a pack of rags, it must have been given by Mrs. Wen." didn't wait for Shen Lan to speak, but it was Song San's sister-in-law who relieved Shen Lan.

As soon as Song San's sister-in-law said, Shen Lan was really relieved, if it was rumored that she bought cloth, Song Wang's family would definitely come to her house to make a fuss, no wonder Wen Niangzi refused to give her clothes.

"The third sister-in-law is sharp-eyed, and she is indeed some cloth, ready to put together some clothes and shoes and socks for the child in my belly." Shen Lan didn't say whether the cloth was bought or given, but told the role of the cloth.

Everyone listened to her words and looked at her belly, and then some people nodded and said that it was indeed time to get ready, although the child did not need to wear too good clothes when he was young, but he still had to wear it anyway, Shen Lan was pregnant with the first child, so naturally there were no old clothes for the child to wear, and he was separated from his mother-in-law, so he could only get some rags to make clothes for the child.

"Lan Niang, don't you dislike it, sister-in-law still has a few small clothes worn by Lianniang here, and my sister-in-law will find them for you later, and let Lianniang send them to you." Song San's sister-in-law remembered that she still had some children's clothes at home, so she asked, at this time, children's old clothes are very popular, especially children who can grow up without illness and disaster, like Song San's sister-in-law, although she only has a son and a daughter, in fact, she is not really only pregnant with two, but only survived.

As a modern person, Shen Lan actually felt a little embarrassed in her heart, but it was not easy to show her expression at this time, but she had to respond with a smile on her face, and then she hurried home under the pretext of going back to prepare for tomorrow's sacrifice.

opened the door, Shen Lan put away all the things she bought, Shen Lan closed the door, and then took the tools and flashed into the space, she had long wanted to enter the space, just because Shen Zhao and Shen Hailing were here on weekdays, she was not convenient to enter and exit, every time she went in, she just picked some breadfruit, and couldn't do anything else, now that Shen Zhao and Shen Hailing were gone, she could finally enter the space and harvest some of the things inside, and she also wanted to catch some fish or something as a sacrifice for tomorrow's sacrifice, Otherwise, there really can't be nothing.

Shen Lan's space has changed a lot, although the terrain has not changed, but there are still some changes, such as there are many more coconut trees on the side of the beach, and there are sorghum growing on the slopes of the original grass, what Shen Lan has to do is to harvest those sorghums, she plans to find an opportunity to sell these sorghums, how much can be exchanged for some money to supplement the family, but she has not yet found a good excuse to take out these sorghum.

No matter what, she can't leave these sorghum alone, after all, she has allowed these sorghum to rot several times, every time she sees it, she feels that her heart is dripping blood, there is obviously a lot of food, but she can't harvest it, she can only watch it rot, and her heart hurts so much that she can't breathe when she thinks about it, so when she is the only one at home, she plans to harvest this stubble of sorghum, as for explaining to Shen Zhao, she hasn't thought about it.

It is best to cut sorghum from the bottom, but Shen Lan is not in good health and can't bend over all the time, so she simply wants to be simple, only cut the sorghum ears above, so that the cut sorghum does not have so many poles, as long as it is loaded in a basket, and then use the space on both sides to convert, get the cut sorghum to the beach to dry it first, and wait until there is no moisture on it, Shen Lan will knock the sorghum rice off the ears by hand, and the whole harvest process is not long outside, but many days have passed in the space, Finally, Shen Lan harvested two full baskets of sorghum rice.

Don't look at this sorghum rice, there are only two baskets, but it occupies one side of the hillside, the main thing is that Shen Lan is simply a random seed, and then he has never managed it, it is completely inferior to wild sorghum, and the two baskets can be harvested because the temperature on this island is suitable and the rain is sufficient.

After several days of hard work, she finally collected the sorghum and rested in the space for another day, before Shen Lan returned to the real world and began to prepare for tomorrow's sacrifice.

Caught a sea fish from the space, and also caught a lot of sea shrimp and a coconut crab and several kinds of shells, and then there were all kinds of vegetables planted by herself, of course, these things, she didn't plan to take them out to worship, but prepared to worship her ancestors at home tomorrow morning, and then pick a few vegetarian bowls to take to the cemetery to worship, but when Shen Lan calculated what to bring to worship, she was very embarrassed to find that she only had four bowls at home, even if it was inconvenient at home, there were not too many dishes for her to carry food.

Shen Lan was very discouraged, and then thought that she couldn't make a fire tomorrow, but it was best to eat the seafood hot, otherwise it would be very fishy, so it seemed that these things could only be solved by herself today, as for the things to worship, she remembered that so many people went to make rice noodles for Mao, because they wanted to use rice noodles to make the shape of fish and meat, and then boil them out for sacrifice, and she didn't soak sorghum rice at all last night, and there was no way to make rice noodles for sorghum rice that had not been soaked.

However, this problem only bothered Shen Lan for a second, and then she quickly went to wash the rice, soaked it in water and threw it directly into the space, and waited for a minute to take out the basin of the rice from the space, the sorghum rice had already been soaked, and Shen Lan immediately went out with a sieve and a dustpan.

There are still a lot of people sitting in front of Song San's sister-in-law's house, and there are two stone mortars in the entire Song family village, one is the stone mortar of Song San's family, and the other is the other one that Shen Lan doesn't know very well.

"Lan Niang, are you also here to make rice noodles?" The third sister-in-law of Song saw Shen Lan go and return, and she took so many things in her hand, and she understood.

"Yes, tomorrow is the Cold Food Festival, and we have to prepare the things that are sacrificed." Shen Lan nodded.

"Then you sit down for a while, there are still a few uncooked, wait for your sister-in-law to help you scoop, you just sift the rice noodles." Sister-in-law Song spoke considerately, and got up to get a small bench for Shen Lan to sit on.

Because most people were sitting and chatting, Shen Lan was not polite, just put her things on the ground and lined up, and sat down.

"Lan Niang, did your sorghum rice give it to your mother-in-law?" Aunt Hu reached out and pinched a few grains of rice in Shen Lan's basin containing rice, and twisted them with her fingers.

Shen Lan shook her head and explained softly: "These are all brought to me by my father, and I cook porridge with wild vegetables on weekdays. ”

Aunt Hu nodded, and then asked, "Your mother-in-law really didn't give you anything at all?" ”

Shen Lan suddenly felt that this person was too gossipy, and besides, everyone was not blind, now let's ask her what she means? Although she didn't like it in her heart, Shen Lan still smiled but didn't answer anymore.

"Lan Niang, don't drink water, sister-in-law will pour you some water, Lian Niang didn't argue with you yesterday, right?" Song San's sister-in-law seemed to speak unintentionally.

Knowing that Song San's sister-in-law was relieving herself, Shen Lan breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "That troublesome sister-in-law, I didn't even drink saliva when I came back just now, and now I'm really thirsty." ”

"Why don't you leave your sister-in-law here earlier, sister-in-law will help you watch, you can make rice noodles when you come back from Song's shop, why do you have to wait so long." Song San's sister-in-law said loudly as she walked into the house to pour water.

"Didn't I forget? Besides, I forgot to soak the rice last night, and I soaked it before going out in the morning, so I was afraid that the rice would not be soaked well, and it would not be easy to soak. After all, Song Lian slept with her last night, and Song Lian also knew about her not soaking rice, so Shen Lan took the opportunity to make a lie.

"You're also a fool, and you can forget about such an important thing." Song San's sister-in-law walked out of the house with water and laughed at Shen Lan playfully.

Shen Lan was a little embarrassed to take the water, as soon as Song San's sister-in-law said this, everyone didn't pay attention to Shen Lan's separation, but talked about other things, Shen Lan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, she didn't want to talk about the Song Wang's family in front of these people, so as not to discount the good impression she left in front of the patriarch before.

Of course, it is impossible for her to say good things about the Song Wang family to these people, and if she doesn't have to put gold on the face of that old pious woman, it will be troublesome if she kicks her nose and eyes with herself when the time comes.
