Chapter Thirty-Eight: Turmoil in the Ground
(Ask the question, where did those women hang their underwear in ancient times?) )
After Yang Liu's ability to barely cope with the things in the kitchen and home, he was pulled into the field that afternoon.
It is the season of wheat ripening, and the half-yellow ears of rice are swaying neatly in the breeze. A large piece of it, the breeze blows, the wheat waves surge, it is very beautiful. But now Yang Liu is not in the mood to admire, she wears a straw hat with a broken brim, bends over and pulls weeds in the wheat field. The height of the wheat was almost seven or eight centimeters above her knees, and when she bent over, Mai Mang was facing her face, and accidentally drew a thin red mark, and the sun was shining on her face, and she was wet with sweat, which particularly irritated her skin. Yang Liu had never worked in the field, and after ten minutes or so, he had to straighten up, beat his waist, and wipe his sweat.
Wen couldn't get used to it, so he secretly tugged Xiao He's sleeve and motioned her to look at Yang Liu: "Look at her squeamish like that." ”
Xiao He didn't speak, and just a few days after Yang Liu got married, He asked her to go down to the ground with her. Xiao He knew that He wanted to give Yang Liu a horse, don't be fooled into not doing this or that, and Xiao He didn't want to have more domineering brothers-in-law, so he nodded. Since Li Wei passed away, Xiao He has never let her go to the ground. Originally, she couldn't have come today, but she didn't expect Wen to look polite and sarcastically mock herself. She was out of breath for a while, and her waist was sore at this time, and when she heard Wen's words of approval, she pulled her sleeve back violently and ignored it.
Wen opened his mouth and scolded silently, glanced at He, and lowered his head to pull the weeds.
At this time, when the weeds in the field were almost ripe and had fallen seeds, there was something called wild wheat, which grew about the same size as wheat, and it multiplied so well that it had to be pulled out. Although Yang Liu already knew how to distinguish, this dense thing still pulled out more than a dozen wrong plants, and every time she pulled the wrong Yu family, she laughed at her in a weird way, so that Yang Liu had to wonder if the Yu family had obtained the true inheritance of the He family. Yang Liu glared at Yu angrily, turned his footsteps, and pointed his ass at Yu.
Seeing this, Xiao He couldn't help but persuade: "Fifth brother and sister, don't worry, take your time, no one will be born like this or that in a day." ”
"It's like this for the first time." Wen also comforted: "When I first went to the ground, I didn't have a brother or sister to learn well." ”
"The third brother and sister said this very well, the life of the young lady's body, hey, God is really fair, and he will not let one person enjoy all the benefits." There is even more in Yu's tone, Wen has always relied on his own ability to give birth, and he is a little decent in front of his mother-in-law, so he often "stabs gently" to his second sister-in-law. Yang Liu is a young and beautiful person with a good background, and he has aroused Li Wu's special care three times and twice, which is not a good one. Her words not only hit Yang Liu, but also included the Wen family who spoke, and it was really a sense of accomplishment to do two things with one stone. Yu rolled the brim of his straw hat, fanning the wind for a while, and was ready to watch Wen and Yangliu dog eat dog.
Sure enough, Wen hurriedly waved his hand and explained: "Fifth brother and sister, I don't mean that, don't take it to heart." ”
Yang Liu looked up at Yu and Wen, and said lightly, "I know." And he went back to pulling weeds. She didn't know if there was such a meaning in Wen's words, after all, she could hear that she was very kind from the tone, and Yang Liu didn't want to think badly about people, otherwise wouldn't she be like marrying into an embattled environment, how miserable! She didn't think she was sure she would break through the encirclement unharmed. As for the Yu family, don't think that I don't know that you are waiting for me to quarrel with the Wen family with a good show mentality, I don't want you to be happy.
Wen saw that Yang Liu had an expression of reluctance to say more, and she was a little unsure whether she would listen to it or not. She is praising people in front of her face and scolding her mother's temperament, and her surface kung fu is still very good, and she seems to be very popular, but she has no deep friendship at all. She doesn't care, men, children, she holds them in the palm of her hand, and she doesn't rely on those outsiders, why bother so much? For Yang Liu's younger siblings, she is also in the observation stage, maybe one day her father and mother will give something really good or something when they think of it? She gets along better with her, and she can also get clean, so she doesn't stop the children from getting close to the willows. But just now, the Yu family almost destroyed the harmonious atmosphere created before. Thinking that this qiē was just the mouth of Yu's culprit, Wen glanced at Yu fiercely, stomped heavily on his feet, and also pointed his ass at Yu.
That's it? The expression on Yu's face froze, and the movements in his hands stopped, and he was about to fan the wind again, but he only saw his two buttocks, what are you doing, silent resistance?
The corners of Yu's mouth twitched fiercely, and he also took his buttocks back, and the three concubines stood up for a while.
Xiuxiu has always stood on Yang Liu's side, seeing that the atmosphere here is awkward, she can't help but say to He, who has been silent about what happened between the three concubines: "Mother, the fifth sister-in-law is the first time to go to the ground, I think it's better to let her rest for a while." ”
"Yo, sister-in-law, I didn't see you so considerate when the second sister-in-law entered the door." Yu's snarky voice arrived in time. Little without conscience, the second sister-in-law took care of you so much back then, Yang Liu only entered the door for a few days, and your elbow turned out.
Xiuxiu pouted, you are a rural girl, it is a common thing to go to the ground, you only walked in the vegetable garden a month after you got married, and you were pregnant with a dog not long after you entered the door, where have you been on the ground a few times. The third sister-in-law is a young lady in the town who does not touch the spring water, and the new daughter-in-law who has only been in the door for half a month has come to the field with her mother, and she will do it if she wants to, and there is no complaint on her lips. But she could only say this in her heart, but she couldn't say it in front of Yu.
Wen had just indirectly offended Yang Liu, and immediately jumped out to play a round at this time: "Mother, after all, the fifth brother and sister have just learned, how can they get started so quickly, they will be injured all of a sudden, and they won't delay their work if they work for a while." ”
"Okay, fifth daughter-in-law, you can rest, take out the wild wheat we have pulled, and throw it into a pile in the corner of the field. Pull out the wrong wheat and peel it out and feed it to the chickens. Ho spoke.
"Hmph, I'll pretend to be a good person in front of my mother-in-law." Yu muttered quietly, and bent down to pull the weeds.
"Mother, I'll rest too." Xiuxiu didn't wait for He to nod, stopped what she was doing, and smiled and helped Yang Liu pick up the bundled weeds.
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Xiuxiu was almost to his side, and Xiao He waved his hand again and again: "Xiuxiu, just let it go, and the sister-in-law will take it out by herself later." As he spoke, he stretched out his foot and pulled the weeds on the ground to his side.
"I'm all here, and I'm not going to have a lot of time to do it." Xiuxiu waved her hand and put a few bales of grass in the crook of her arm and clamped them tightly.
Yang Liu only glanced at Yu when she heard it, this Wen is very good, I really don't know why Yu always said that she pretended. Xiao He's is He's niece and daughter-in-law, and she is not pampered and arrogant, and she is also very good to herself.
"Fifth sister-in-law, you peel out the wheat grains like this and feed them to the chickens." Xiuxiu said while demonstrating: "Oh, like this, it's fast." ”
Yang Liu looked at it seriously a few times and nodded: "I know." ”
"Fifth sister-in-law, don't blame the second sister-in-law, although the second sister-in-law loves to hold grudges and is unforgiving, her heart and eyes are still not bad." Xiuxiu was afraid that Yang Liu would be angry, so she opened her mouth to persuade. Living under the same roof, looking down and not looking up, the two concubines respond to each other, and this day is not comfortable. Yu has been Xiuxiu's second sister-in-law for more than ten years, and she understands her temperament and temperament, and Xiuxiu is not bad, but as for why she always targets her fifth sister-in-law, she is still a little confused. Could it be that the fifth sister-in-law is jealous of the town? But the fourth sister-in-law is also in the town. Hmm, is it because the fifth sister-in-law lives in the tunzi and the second sister-in-law enters the door, so she can take care of the fifth sister-in-law? The more Xiuxiu thought about it, the more she felt that her head was big, it was better for him, there was a sister-in-law at home, Xiuxiu pursed her lips and secretly laughed.
"Lu Yao knows that horsepower has been in the hearts of the people for a long time, and he will always know it in the future." Yang Liu smiled, but he didn't say it to death.
"Ah, how many mistakes are in this bundle?" Xiuxiu suddenly said in surprise.
Yu's ears were tipped, and he raised his head suddenly, almost not raising his straw hat flying: "Except for those who don't distinguish between grains, who else here can make such a mistake?" ”
As soon as he heard this, he was aimed at himself, and Yang Liu was not a soft character, so he threw the grass in his hand on the ground: "Second sister-in-law, if you have something to say, just say it, don't make so many twists and turns." I pulled some of the wrong ones, but I didn't pull out this bundle. ”
"Yo, it's not you anymore. Except for you, who didn't go to the ground when he beat the girl, this wild wheat has to be plucked every year, even if you close your eyes, you can feel whether it is wild wheat or not. Yu's dissatisfaction with Yang Liu was directly on the surface, and it was made clear at the moment.
"Fifth brother and sister, the first time you go to the ground, it is inevitable that you will make a mistake, and we will not say anything about you. But pulling out the wrong is pulling the wrong one, which can be denied," Xiao He shook his head.
I haven't been down for more than ten years, and if it weren't for the He family leading the way in front, Xiao He wouldn't know which piece of land is his own, let alone distinguish which is wild wheat and which is wheat. She relied on her meager experience in the field many years ago, and the speed of pulling weeds was fast, but she was not as good as the willow of a pure novice. No one stared at her like Yu, she quietly broke the wrong wheat and stuffed it into the middle of a bundle of grass, which made it impossible to see the clue from the outside. Originally, she wanted to take it out by herself and not be discovered by others, but she didn't expect Xiuxiu to take out the grass that she and others had pulled, and she couldn't recognize who was who when she was mixed up now, how could she admit it? This black cauldron can only be destined to be the back of Yang Liu.
Yang Liu narrowed her eyes, Xiao He's saying this always made her feel like a sin. She stood up and lifted up the bundles of weeds she had bundled and the bundle of grass that Xiuxiu had found: "Look, this is what I tied, this is what Xiuxiu found, do you look like I did?" ”
Yang Liu's hands are not big, and every time he can't hold one hand, he will tie it up. She didn't know how to tie them, so she had to pick some long weeds from them and tie them up like shoelaces, which looked time-consuming and a little unconventional. And the bundle that Xiuxiu found out was obviously a bundle, and it was obviously larger than the willow bundle.
Yu snorted and stopped talking.
Instead, Xiao He stood thoughtfully in place, waiting for Yang Liu's gaze to sweep over, and then she smiled and nodded at Yang Liu.
