Chapter 145 Working hard for the red hijab Dedicated to Qiuning's reward
When the vines were awakened by Xiao Yuqi's voice, and hurriedly chased out a large section to return the hairpins, Xiao Yuqi had already run away, and there was only a small shadow left.
Mancao looked at the small figure floating away worriedly, afraid that the little guy would fall.
It wasn't until she stared at the little figure and returned to her mother, who was carrying water in front of her, that she retracted her gaze, hit a bucket with one hand and a hairpin with the other, went down the dirt slope, walked back to the yard, closed the courtyard door and went back to the house.
As soon as I entered the door, my grandmother's voice came from the back room.
The vine grass quickly put away the bucket, and entered the house with the hairpin in his hand.
"Look, milk! This was given to me by my sister who borrowed a bucket from our house just now. The vine suppressed the vibration and excitement in her heart, and hurriedly held the hairpin to her grandmother.
The old lady who was paralyzed in the kang tried her best to take advantage of the light from the window on the kang to carefully look at the things her granddaughter had brought up, and the more she looked, the brighter the light in the old lady's eyes became, and finally she couldn't help sighing.
"It is said that the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and no matter how depressed the big family is, it is not comparable to poor people like us......
"Milk?".
"I'm fine," looking at her granddaughter's concerned eyes, the old lady shook her head, and then said: "Grass, since the little doll is given to you, then you can put it away, this is your shipment, and the thing is your own!" Our family has a thin foundation, and the family is sorry for you, in order to marry a daughter-in-law for your brother to inherit the ancestry, our family is dragged down by me, an old immortal, who is poor and white, and has no money, no food! Seeing that your brother is nineteen, I have to suffer you, milk grass! ”。
If you could, would she be happy to watch her only granddaughter be swapped?
It's all her old immortal who dragged her down!
Which of her sons, daughters-in-law, and grandchildren is not filial? Which one is not willing to work hard and sell coolies? It's a pity......
"Milk, I'm not bitter! Woo woo woo ......", with grandma's words, even if she is about to face the unknown future, facing her husband who has changed her parents, Mancao is no longer worried at the moment.
At least compared with the other two families in the village, although the man's family is a little poorer, he has no bad habits and does not beat his daughter-in-law.
The most important thing is that the other party is only twenty this year, one year older than her brother, compared to those widowers, compared to those who can't marry a wife at a lot of age, and loves to beat their daughters-in-law, she is already very good.
The grandparents and grandchildren warmed up, wiped their tears with vines, and held hairpins.
"Milk, I won't swallow this hairpin alone, go back and let my father take it to Yonggu City to exchange it for silver money, and then divide it into three, father and grandmother, you keep one, I will take one, and keep the rest for my brother, even if I buy a red hijab for my new sister-in-law."
Red hijab, don't say it to your sister-in-law, it's herself, that's also the dream she is most looking forward to in her heart.
Therefore, if she wants to keep a copy, she can also pull some red cloth, even if it is smaller, even if it is the lowest red linen, she is also happy to hold it as a hijab.
The old lady couldn't see her granddaughter's expectations, thought about it, and motioned to her granddaughter to put away the hairpins, "Grandma has the final say, hairpins are your dowry, as for the red hijab, grandma thinks about it......", people are old and fine, and the old lady is not simple.
After pondering for a while, the old man made a decision.
"In this way, since you are familiar with other people's children, they are still sensible people, and the grandmother thinks, the other party is new to the house, and the family must lack everything. Yesterday, your brother came back and said something, and the man who said that he begged him to open one eye and close one eye, and allowed him to pick up some firewood in the forest, and your brother was soft-hearted and agreed. It can be seen that the other party didn't even get firewood to burn! These things can't be counted on, but living at home is indispensable, you are like this, when you turn around, you will take our family to the city to sell the firewood on your back, and go over there to ask if you can change a red cloth for you to make a hijab. ”。
"Milk, they're so pitiful, they don't even get a bucket, and they can still have a red cloth?".
The old lady looked at the hairpin in her granddaughter's hand and smiled, "Rich and noble, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the people are kind-hearted, you just have to go, is there any, how do you know if you don't try?" ”。
"But milk, just two bundles of firewood, is not worth ......", in their territory, people have always liked to use grain and cloth as money, growing so big, she has few opportunities to see and touch big money, let alone silver.
And the red cloth? Even a burlap dyed red is half the price of ordinary linen.
I carried two bundles of firewood on my back to change it, isn't that a clear bully?
The old lady laughed angrily at her granddaughter's sincerity.
"You stupid girl, the milk asked you to carry two bundles first, not that you were asked to use two bundles of firewood to take advantage of others! As long as we can exchange it, we will get them firewood, or we can exchange it for something else, as long as our family has it, they can use it, even if it is to get a bucket from our family, we will change it! ”。
For the sake of the dignity of her grandchildren, the old lady is also open-minded, even if her family has to borrow buckets every day in the future, she wants to fulfill her granddaughter's heart.
"Hey! Milk, I know, I'll go back. After getting grandma's words, the vine smiled, and the smile was particularly refreshing and cheerful.
I'm glad to have such a grandmother and such a family.
As for the ones that the chief explained, the vines were completely forgotten.
It's a big deal, when she finds no one, or when she goes back after dark, and even if she is discovered, she is not afraid, anyway, she is a daughter who is about to get married, and she will not be in the village to make a living when the time comes, so she will take the responsibility on herself and take out the family.
When the hour came, an hour had passed since Xiaoxi's mother and daughter came to borrow a bucket just now, and at this point, every household in the wolf ditch, even the most cheating and slippery existence, had gone out of the ditch to work in this hour one after another.
It can be said that in addition to the old age, the whole ditch is immobile, such as his grandmother;
In addition to the young can not work, two or three years old size dolls;
In addition to being like yourself, who is spoiled by your family, you have to take good care of your body and prepare for marriage;
The others went out of the ditch and went about their own business.
Either go to Yonggu City to earn money, or go outside to pick up dung, in short, Mao Dongzi for their poor people, this word does not exist, every day is not less, in order to live every day has to work hard.
As for himself, hehehe, the whole group of wolves is currently being raised at home alone.
Mancao was anxious, took care of his grandmother, and after receiving the dishes for his grandmother's meal, he said hello to his grandmother, and went to the firewood room to pick a bundle, and chose a bundle weighing about 30 pounds, looking at the best in the firewood room at present, the most neat, and the most burned bundle of firewood on his back, and holding a bundle of small ones in his arms, and people went to the open space on the right side of the ditch, that is, the place where Xiao Yuqi's family was distributed.
