Chapter 33: The Sixty Peasant Mother-in-law (10)

Wang Tao was frightened by Qiao Yong's angry appearance, and she didn't dare to say anything more for a while.

Just shut up and put the money away.

After a long while, he whispered:

"Is this money for a house?"

"Well, let's save some money.

I think, there is no need to build many brick houses, brick houses are too expensive, it is completely possible to build only one brick house, a few more mud brick houses, and then we will move to the mud brick house, and the two of them are not young, so they will move to the mud brick house with us, and empty the brick house to the grandchildren.

Exactly six grandchildren, one room for each person!

In the future, you don't have to worry about the children's affairs, and you are not too tired after worrying about your grandson and great-grandchildren.

Let's split up after the house is up! ”

Qiao Yong thought about it a lot just now, and suddenly felt that his mother's life was a leisure, his mother lived alone, although it may be a little lonely, but the life was comfortable, and the things that the two brothers gave her every year were basically enough for her to chew, and she could save what she earned.

He doesn't have to worry about his son or his grandson, but he has to worry about his son's marriage, his grandson's marriage, his grandson's marriage, and his great-grandson's marriage.

How can there be an end if this continues?

It's better to separate the family, why should he worry all the time, the child wants to get married, the father and the grandfather don't have to worry about it, he, the grandfather, can't eat, and he has to go to his mother to ask for something with a shy face.

Just thinking about it makes me feel panicked.

"W-how?"

Wang Tao didn't react for a while, but he still habitually said no.

"Why not, as long as there is one more brick house, there are exactly six brick houses, and each family is divided into three.

Whether the children get married or not, let them worry about what they want to get married, and the two of us also provide for the elderly like my mother, so that they can give some filial piety every year, and save all the money they earn for the elderly.

When we just broke up, we didn't have much money in our hands, didn't we all pull them all up, and gave them a wife, and we didn't starve to death in four or two years, so they couldn't do it?

That's it, sleep! ”

Qiao Yong thought about it, so many people in their family live together, and their lives are still the same poverty, there are many bumps and bumps on weekdays, and there are even more things that quarrel with each other, just housework is noisy, not to mention major events such as marriage, other families in the village, which family has to worry about the marriage of his great-grandson at such an age!

Good morning separation.

Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and they share the house and money with them, and then they still eat a big pot of rice, if they can't survive, then they deserve it.

……

The next day, everything was business as usual.

Qiao Mu was so tired that he came back from the dark last night, so he slept until noon, and when he got up, he looked at the sun, and did not want to go to the canteen to drink gruel, so he took out a buckwheat bread from the warehouse and filled his stomach.

After that, they went up the mountain.

There are two small peaks on the edge of their village, the peaks are not big, and there are no big beasts, but there are a lot of wild vegetables, and many children and old people will come here to dig wild vegetables and eat them when they are not working. In this era, everything that can be eaten is a good thing, not to mention that now the canteen can basically only drink porridge, or coarse grain and wild vegetable porridge, everyone's stomach can only eat three points full, and it is five points full, so naturally it is more necessary to dig more wild vegetables back to fill the stomach, and the feeling of hunger is uncomfortable.

However, when Qiao Mu went up the mountain, it was the time for everyone to go down the mountain to the cafeteria for lunch, so when she went up the mountain, she happened to meet many people coming down the mountain and greeted her.

"Mrs. Qiao, why are you going up the mountain now?

It's time for lunch in the cafeteria! ”

Someone asked with concern.

"Oh, I want to go up the mountain to dig some wild vegetables, I won't fight with you for porridge in the canteen, just drink some wild vegetable soup, and pick some wild fruits!"

Qiao Mu was casually perfunctory.

She is actually just a little hungry, so she will come up to the mountain, so that even if she can't catch any wild things, there is no problem in sneaking around to eat some chickens and ducks at home when she goes back, if she doesn't even go out of the house, it will be strange if she is accidentally caught eating chickens and ducks.

"Oh, be careful, then!

The wild vegetables on the east slope have basically been dug up by us, or you go to the west slope to dig it, I haven't seen anyone go up there today.

And I heard a few little rabbits say that there are a few bushes of wild strawberries over there, and they should be able to eat them! ”

I have to say that many people in the village are still quite simple and enthusiastic, and as soon as they heard Qiao Mu finish speaking, they immediately enthusiastically pointed out a place where Qiao Mu can dig wild vegetables and eat wild fruits.

"Then thank you, I'm leaving, you guys hurry up and go down to lunch, don't delay!"

Qiao Mu said, and followed the direction that the person had just pointed out, anyway, her main purpose was not to dig wild vegetables, where to go?

But not to mention, after the arbor walked for a quarter of an hour, she really found that there were indeed a lot of wild vegetables on the western slope, and there were some wild strawberries, and she even found a peach tree in bloom.

As a result, it is natural to have a symbolic picking.

Actually, wild vegetables are not as delicious as everyone imagined, most of the wild vegetables will have a certain bitter taste, the really delicious wild vegetables have long been tamed into vegetables, occasionally eat one or two meals, can be regarded as wild fun, and also feel refreshing and delicious, but if you eat it every day, it is really much more difficult than eating vegetarian every day.

Qiao Mu has no feeling for most wild vegetables, and only loves the kind of shepherd's cabbage, so when she picks wild vegetables, she only picks shepherd's cabbage, and it just so happens that she wants to eat dumplings recently, and it is not bad to pick some shepherd's cabbage and go back to wrap dozens of dumplings to eat.

Whether it is served with vinegar, soy sauce, or spicy sauce, it is a very good choice, with a refreshing taste and a very delicious taste.

After picking the shepherd's cabbage, Qiao Mu did not rush down the mountain, but continued to walk more into the mountain, wanting to see if he could see the legendary pheasant and hare, but two hours later, the ironclad facts proved that not all mountains have pheasants and hares.

Qiao Mu felt that he was about to visit the mountain, and he did not see a single pheasant or hare, not even a wild egg, so he could only carry wild vegetables and return with them.

However, in order to reward himself for his hard work yesterday and today, Qiao Mu still used the shepherd's cabbage dug up today to cooperate with the pork in the warehouse, and wrapped himself with a full five catties of shepherd's cabbage dumplings.

Not to mention, this pure natural shepherd's cabbage with the pork in the warehouse, the taste is called good, not worse than the shepherd's cabbage dumplings eaten in the palace in the previous life, and it may even feel better because all the ingredients are made by yourself.
