Chapter 20: Wu Lanlan is idle
When they came early in the morning, Guo Xiaojun urged Sang Lili to go home together. The main thing is that he watched Qingzi carry his schoolbag to school, and he couldn't help but want to go back to school.
Sang Lili annoyed him a few words: "In the past, the whole family said that they would send you back to school, but you didn't want to live or die. Now hurry. What's the use of you hurrying now, half a semester has passed, you can go back to class and keep up. You go and ask the third sister-in-law what to do. β
Yu Sheng was sitting next to the red clay stove at this moment, watching the fire of the decoction. There is no small stove for decoction of this kind of medicine at home, and this stove is still borrowed by Sang Ping who got up early in the morning and went to Junko's house. Grandma Junko also gave three pieces of honeycomb coal.
Guo Xiaojun came over and shyly called "sister-in-law Sheng", and then asked: "I'll go back to class, what if I can't keep up?" β
Yu Sheng said patiently: "You just started in the second year of junior high school, it's been half a semester, and you won't be able to keep up if you go back now." Don't rush back to school, there is still half a year to go before the school starts in September, and you can take advantage of this time to make up for the knowledge that you left behind in the first year of primary school. Even if you repeat your studies for a year, don't be pressured. When Qingzi comes back from school at noon, I will ask him to find out the elementary school textbooks he used before, and you can review them. β
"Done." Guo Xiaojun scratched his head, "Listen to Sister-in-law Sheng." β
Yu Sheng: "Isn't the bridge over there still unrepaired?" When it is repaired, you and your sister-in-law want to go back and ask Brother Ping to drive you. β
Guo Xiaojun happily responded: "Hey." β
Sangpei and Yuniel sent Aoko back to school.
Sangping carried a bamboo cage. There was a bunch of stuff in the cage chirping.
"Why do you get so many chicks?" Sang Lili was particularly surprised, "Third sister-in-law, come and see, the little chick caught by the third brother!" β
A cage full of tender yellow feathered chickens.
Sangpei lowered the bamboo cage to the ground.
A row of chicks in front probed their brains to investigate, and then chirped to the chicks in the back for a while, as if to say:
This one is not bad.
The chick at the front spread its young wings and ran out, followed by a huge procession.
Sang Ping: "When I came back, I saw that someone in Hezhuang Village pulled a large cart of chickens and sold them there, so I caught a few and came back to raise them for your third sister-in-law." Anyway, it's okay for her to stay at home and be idle. β
"Ouch, you're really going to find a job for your third sister-in-law." Sang Lili counted. No more, no less, exactly ten pairs. "Twenty!? You're going to exhaust your third sister-in-law!! β
"Take a few more." "It's warm, and there's a lot of bugs in the yard. Your third sister-in-law is afraid of insects, especially the long soft insects of earthworms and centipedes. β
Sang Lili was incredible: "Even if it's a centipede, what's so afraid of earthworms!" β
"She's horribly ruthless." Sang Ping slammed the chickens at his feet, "Go, go, go, go." Get rid of all the bugs. β
Sang Ping dug a chicken coop on the side of the wheat straw stack by the courtyard wall.
It's such a big chicken nest, Winnier has to get into it.
Yu Sheng called Sang Lili to the house to drink medicine, and took a tape measure to measure Guo Xiaojun's shoulder width, arm length, waist circumference and body length, and used a piece of gray wool that he had coiled with Yun Nier yesterday to put more than 100 needles on the sweater needle, preparing to knit a woolen vest for Guo Xiaojun.
Sang Lili sat next to her, learning and knitting yarn with Yunelle.
"Lili!"
Hearing Wu Lanlan's voice coming from outside the courtyard wall, Sang Lili's face tightened, and she hurriedly put the woolen ball in the basket and got up and went out. She wanted to stop Wu Lanlan at the door, but she was still a few steps too late.
Wu Lanlan came uninvited, entered the door and took off a shoe by the wall, "Lili, quickly put your shoes on for me." β
She was still thinking about the leather shoes on Sang Lili's feet, and she didn't know that she had stepped into the ditch when she came, and the cloth shoes were soaked with muddy water and dirty on them.
Sang Lili didn't know what she was thinking. She suspected that Wu Lanlan deliberately wet her shoes.
Sang Lili brought her the rubber shoes she wore when she came.
Wu Lanlan was reluctant, "I want to wear the pair on your feet." β
Sang Lili was even more reluctant, and opened her mouth to scold: "Just want to wear good drops, how can there be so many good shoes for you to wear." You don't wear rubber shoes, do you, you don't have to wear any shoes! β
Seeing that she was about to take away the rubber shoes, Wu Lanlan stopped her, "Eh, who said I don't wear them." You put it there for me. β
Sang Lili threw the rubber shoes at her feet.
Wu Lanlan changed the rubber shoes and put them on, and looked at the leather shoes on Sang Lili's feet several times. Yesterday, she went around the market and didn't see anyone selling shoes like this.
She didn't stop thinking about it, grabbed Sang Lili's arm and said in a good voice: "In the past, our shoes were changed and worn, and you gave me your shoes for two days." β
"Think beautifully!" Sang Lili broke away from her hand and said impatiently, "I'll give you the rubber shoes, you go quickly!" β
"You just let me go as soon as I came." Wu Lanlan was a little angry, and broke into the courtyard in a grand manner. "I'm not leaving! I'll leave when my shoes are dry! β
Sang Ping rubbed a dustpan of millet and hit the granary, shook and blew off the chaff. The chaff flew to the ground, attracting a group of chicks.
Wow.
Wu Lanlan stepped on rubber shoes and rushed over happily, the smile on her face was brighter than the sun today.
"Ping, you haven't been to my house for a long time."
Sang Lili was a little anxious, afraid that the third sister-in-law would misunderstand Wu Lanlan's words, so she hurriedly said:
"My third brother hasn't been to your house for a while!"
Sang Ping didn't say anything to Wu Lanlan, and said to Sang Lili with a raised face: "Take Lanlan's shoes to the stove and roast them." β
Sang Lili reacted.
Yes, yes, hurry up and dry Wu Lanlan's shoes and let her put them on and go.
Yu Sheng said in a childish voice: "Yuniel, go to the house and move a bench for your Aunt Lan Lan to sit on." β
Yun Nier had not yet put the woolen yarn in the frame, and obediently went to the hall to move the small bench out.
Wu Lanlan looked at Yun Nier, turned to Sang Ping and said, "Ping, did you take Yun Nier from your eldest sister?" β
Sang Ping didn't look at her: "Your sister-in-law let me take it." β
Wu Lanlan asked again: "When will you send it away?" β
Sang Ping: "I won't send it away at any time." β
Wu Lanlan glanced at Yu Sheng, who was concentrating on making sweaters under the sun, her face instantly turned ugly, and her tone of voice was not very good: "I thought that people in the city were more sensible." She asked you to bring Winelle and you took it. It's not easy for you to take your eldest brother's son who is still in school, and if you raise a little more burden, then you can't take care of it. The burden of the family is on you alone, and she doesn't think about you. Don't forget that you also have a brick factory. β
Sang Ping frowned and said, "Qingzi and Yun Nier are both brought by your sister-in-law. β
Sang Lili scolded Wu Lanlan: "This is all our family's business, what are you doing with so much leisure." β
Wu Lanlan Zhenzhen said: "You don't want to think about it, your sister-in-law can't bear this hardship and run away with others." Your third sister-in-law looks like that, she is pampered and married in such a distant place, and sooner or later she will follow the same path as your sister-in-law! β
Sang Lili's face darkened: "Isn't that exactly what you want!" β
Sang Ping reprimanded: "What nonsense are you two talking about! β
Wu Lanlan emphasized to him: "I'm serious, think about your sister-in-lawβ"
Sang Ping said angrily with a cold face: "How long have people gone, Qingzi and Yun Nier don't want to, I want her to do something!" My daughter-in-law is not my sister-in-law's number. Let me hear your nonsense again, and I'll rip your mouth apart! β
Wu Lanlan was indignant, especially when she saw Yu Sheng, who was sitting there playing a sweater, looked like nothing happened, and the anger in her heart really had nowhere to put or vent, which made her feel aggrieved.
Guo Xiaojun rode on the bench and looked at Yu Sheng's sweater, with likes and expectations in his eyes, "Sister-in-law Sheng, you are playing so fast." β
A complete circle of patterns was weaved.
"Oh, really!" Sang Lili didn't get up for long, and when she looked again, she found that the hem of the vest had come out.
Yu Sheng smiled and asked, "Is it good-looking?" β
"Beautiful, beautiful! None of the ones sold outside are like what you type. Sang Lili sat down, and the more she looked at it, the more she was moved, so she flattered Yu Sheng, "Third sister-in-law, you can also give me a beating." β
"Yours." Yu Sheng said, "If you are not in a hurry to leave, I will call you out in the next two days." β
Sang Lili: "No hurry, no hurry. β
Yu Sheng: "Then hurry up and coil the yarn." β
Sang Lili and Guo Xiaojun hurriedly started to coil the yarn.
Wu Lanlan pouted: "Hey, what's so rare!" β
She said this, but her eyes couldn't help but look at Yu Sheng's hand.
