Li Wu sneezed heavily, he rubbed his nose, and glanced into the street with some confusion. The sun shines on the bluestone pavement, so that people can't see it. Li Wu squinted his eyes, it would take a long time to get used to it.

"Tomorrow it's fine." The small village in the store immediately forecasts the weather.

The original laughter did not sound, and he realized that it was the shopkeeper who sneezed this time, and immediately the pale Mu Mu turned around, showed his two front teeth to Li Wu, and said flatteringly: "Shopkeeper, I didn't say anything about you." ”

Li Wu didn't listen to the quibbles either, and beckoned.

Xiao Zhuang, like the prisoners on the execution ground, almost lowered his head and moved one step at a time before standing in front of the counter.

The imaginary scolding was not there, but he received a sudden scolding on the head. He stretched out his hand to rub it, and heard Li Wu say, "Be bold, you dare to arrange me." ”

"I, I, I, I was wrong." Xiao Zhuang didn't explain, but secretly said that he was unlucky. In the past few days, I don't know who started the game, and as soon as someone sneezes, someone predicts tomorrow's weather. I all know that the dog will be sunny when it sneezes, and I also know that this sentence is a whole person, anyway, everyone is a young person, and they won't be really angry if they smile. After a few days, he heard the sound of sneezing almost subconsciously and said "tomorrow will be fine", just now he was secretly proud that he took the lead, and as a result, he was very happy and sad.

"Go and pick up a few more bags of old rice in the back. No one else was allowed to help, so he was left alone. Li Wu wouldn't have lifted it so lightly.

"Shopkeeper, this is not good, you often teach us to help each other." Xiao Zhuang was not stupid, and immediately said: "Look at my small body, lift dozens of catties of rice." Are you still walking? ”

first patted the sycophants, and then pretended to be pitiful. Bo sympathy.

Li Wu's eyelids rose and proposed a solution: "Why don't I help you?" ”

"No need." Xiao Zhuang immediately waved his hand. Zhengse said: "The shopkeeper also said that no matter what you do, you must be physically good, and Xiaozhuang can do it." He snapped his chest.

"Very good, very motivated." Li Wu patted Xiao Zhuang on the shoulder, "Go ahead, don't forget to clean the hall when you get off work tonight." ”

Xiaozhuang had to go with a bitter face.

At this time, Xiaofu approached Li Wu and said softly: "Shopkeeper, I want to buy some rice at home." Can you give me the old rice as cheaper? ”

Li Wu looked at the shy and restless Xiaofu and smiled, "One Chen's rice, give you Chen's price." ”

A Chen, also known as jargon, is last year's rice. By analogy, Erchen is the rice of the year before last. This year's rice grain has been transported from the south, and the previous rice has naturally become old rice. Aged rice just doesn't taste as good as new rice, but the difference isn't much. The town is drought. Many knowledgeable people have begun to stock up on rice and noodles. Li Wu's rice shop has also raised prices, even aged rice.

After Xiaofu walked away, Li Wu realized that they should also have some food at home. Why hasn't anyone been aware of this yet?

***

Liu beckoned, "Auntie, come and sit down for a while." ”

He walked over wiping his sweat. picked a large leaf and fanned the wind, and sat near Liu's with another butt. smiled: "I haven't moved for more than a month, and I've grown a lot of fat on my body." This movement is sweat. ”

"That's your daughter-in-law knows filial piety, how about it, your fourth daughter-in-law's body is so neat, right?" Liu, holding a pu fan in his hand, also increased his strength.

There was such a fuss at the gate of the Du family, and everyone knew that Du was murdered and had a miscarriage.

"It's already out of the little moon. She has a lot of good things at home, and her body is good quite fast. He Shi flicked his skirt and said, "I also looked at the doctor, and said that it would not affect fertility." ”

"That's good, she's still young, and she has the opportunity to hold a baby."

Ho nodded.

"That—" Liu said with a slurred voice.

"Huh?" He Shi turned his head, "Is there anything you are embarrassed to say to me?" ”

"Actually, it's not a big deal" Liu was about to say something else, but the words suddenly changed when he came out, "I just asked you what to do with your paddy field, do you want to divert water?" ”

The lack of water He knew that the reduction in production or even the lack of harvest was expected, but to be honest, she was not panicked. After such a long drought, how long can it be drought? Several of her sons are lucky, and a few hundred taels of silver can't survive a disaster year? In the past, five taels of silver a year could have a fat year, but now don't be dissatisfied.

"Do other people in the tunzi fill it?" Even if she wants to divert water, it can't be just her family's strength, she has to go through so many fields to bring water to her family's fields, and she is afraid that others will take advantage of her.

"There's not much movement." Liu said.

"Then I'm not in a hurry, anyway, there is no harvest, and it's not my family that is starving." He shrugged, "I also see it, I am an old woman, and I am not greedy for clothes, how much food can I eat in a year, why do I get up early and be greedy and tired and half dead." When the fourth child comes back, I will divide the family, and I will enjoy Qingfu. ”

Liu sighed, obviously not listening carefully.

"What's wrong, what's wrong at home?" Ho found the clue.

Not everyone is as lucky as Ho. How can they accept that the crops they have spent so much effort have turned out to be unharvested? Liu's is like this, her daughter-in-law will give birth in two months, and when the family is using money, they want to rely on the crops to harvest and sell the grain for flowers. Now, it's all in vain. She wanted to ask He to borrow money, but she couldn't open her mouth, and she had been troublesome over the years. Besides, this is her own business, no matter how bad it is, doesn't she still have two fat pigs at home? If there is really no way, the only way to solve the urgent need is to solve it first.

"It's okay, I just thought of something else." Liu stood up and patted his buttocks, and said with a smile: "Go back, you can poke two more needles when you go home." ”

Liu didn't say it, and He didn't want to ask, but he wrote down this doubt.

When I got home, I happened to see Yang Liu walking towards the pigsty with a basin of water.

"Eh, splash the water into the garden." She was busy.

After a pause, the water in the basin hit the basin gang, and it fell back and forth, and Yang Liu hurriedly flattened the basin so as not to overflow the water. She looked at He Shi and said, "Mother, it's the same when I rush to the pigsty." ”

She had just entered the hut, and as soon as she opened the door, oh my God, the stench of heat made her tears come out. This is what she wants too, no matter what

"Splash it in the garden." Ho insisted. Although the water still flows into the manure pit after washing the pigsty, the pit is almost all dry manure. In this kind of weather, add some dry manure, and the seedlings must not be burned to death. It is understandable that there is a lack of water in the distance, and it is impossible that the small vegetable garden at home has also been killed by drought, and she still wants to grow some more vegetables.

Yang Liu couldn't, so she had to pour water into the vegetable garden next to her.

"No, we have to find a way." It's impossible to hold back the pee, Yang Liu walked in circles around the house, "Xiuxiu, how can they stand it?" ”

After asking, Yang Liu suddenly realized.

At night, Li Cong found that there was an extra bucket in the house.

Covered with a dough of gong. (To be continued......)
