Chapter 32: Widow Liu (Three Watches)
A group of boring people, sister doesn't have the time to play with you!
Behind them, the villagers let out a surprised chatter.
"Eh, what's wrong with this fat girl? Why don't you ignore us? ”
"Did you big guy notice, just now she looked at us, cold, as if she had changed someone!"
"I'm afraid I didn't take the wrong medicine, right?"
“……”
When the crowd saw that they couldn't tease it, they all dispersed, what should they do.
After the crowd dispersed, the young man in the green cloth shirt standing at the corner of a courtyard wall not far behind the crowd was frowning with a pair of good-looking brows, looking at the chubby figure that was gradually moving away.
The young man's bright and beautiful eyes were filled with surprise at the moment.
"Zichuan, let you go to the pond to fetch buckets of water, why are you still here?"
Out of the small courtyard next to her came a neatly dressed woman, with fair complexion, her hair combed neatly, and a bun behind her head, with a silver hairpin stuck in it. Between the eyebrows and eyes, there is a bit of charm.
The woman shouted Mu Zichuan, but there was no response, the woman showed a surprised expression, and her mouth was dissatisfied: "What are you looking at this child?" How can it be like having no soul? ”
His gaze followed his son's line of sight.
"Huh? Isn't that the fat girl of the old Yang family? Isn't she too sick to get out of the ground? Why did you run out and hang around again? ”
Mu Zichuan pursed his lips, ignored his mother's self-talk, picked up the barrel in his hand, raised his feet and walked forward.
Widow Liu reacted, and hurriedly chased after and snatched the wooden barrel from Mu Zichuan's hand: "What are you going to do?" ”
"Didn't my mother ask me to carry water?" Mu Zichuan said in a sullen voice.
When Widow Liu heard this, she was anxious, and her fingers directly poked Mu Zichuan's full and smooth forehead: "Silly boy, were you kicked in the head by a donkey?" Didn't you see the fat girl go to the pond? You still dare to go over, beware of her getting entangled again, you can't shake it off like kraft candy! ”
Mu Zichuan stood there, lowering his head and letting his mother poke her fingers on his forehead, the corners of his lips pursed into a straight line.
The fat girl is like kraft candy entangled with herself, this is really the most confusing thing about herself, since he can remember, this is one of his biggest laughing stocks, walking in the village is laughed at, can't raise his head.
He hates the fat girl, and he just hates it, and wants to get rid of her entanglement.
He never wanted her to die.
In the past few days, there was no class in the school, he stayed at home to help his mother harvest rice, and in the field, when he heard everyone talking about the affairs of the old Yang family, he pricked up his ears.
Fortunately, she didn't die, if she really lost her life because of the angry words on his head that day, he would be clouded on his conscience for the rest of his life.
"Mother, it's okay, I don't care about her, you let go, I'll go and bring the water back!"
After being silent for a while, he didn't know what his mother was babbling about, and asked again.
He wanted to go over and tell her, sorry!
Although, she may not be able to understand.
Widow Liu was stunned for a moment, and then glared at a pair of apricot eyes: "You kid, you're really stupid, that girl is looking for death and life at every turn, you can't go to her eyelids anymore, let's go, the water is gone, hurry up and follow my house!" ”
Widow Liu couldn't help but say, snatched the wooden barrel from Mu Zichuan's hand, dragged him and turned around and went back to the yard, "Bang! With a bang, he closed the courtyard door and closed the door of the main house!
……
Yang Ruoqing passed by the pond at the entrance of the village, and was teased by a few village women who were washing there, she still didn't squint and only rushed her own way, no matter how they pointed at the back, anyway, there were a lot of pieces of meat.
Leaving the entrance of the village, she walked and stopped in the field with a basket, her eyes swept inch by inch on the ridges under her feet, very meticulous, not letting go of any inch of soil.
After wandering around several ridges, Yang Ruoqing was a little disappointed, she found that her expectations were a little too perfect.
In her concept, the fields in the countryside should be full of wild vegetables, and even those fields after the autumn harvest can more or less pick up some spilled ears of grain.
But the fact is that the ridges are almost all bare, except for some wild grasses and wild artemisia that have been chewed by cows, and those wild vegetables that can be eaten by people are almost pitiful!
I searched for several ridges, but only found a few sporadic ones. As for the fields, there is nothing left.
This countryman has a hard life, and wild vegetables are treasures! Yang Ruoqing stood up straight, her eyes swept around, and she found that in the fields not far away, there were also many people in the same way who were digging wild vegetables.
She sighed lightly and came out for a trip, but she couldn't just go home empty-handed. So, she turned her gaze to the hillside behind the village.
After a rain, there may be more wild vegetables on the hillside, and if you are lucky, you may even be able to pick fresh wild mushrooms!
Okay, let's go there!
In the woods after a rain, the air was moist and fresh, and there were still crystal droplets of water on the leaves.
In the forest in front of me, most of the pine trees grow, the pine feathers are red, and they fall to the ground and spread several thick layers, together with those yellowed dead branches and fallen leaves, and the feet step on them, they are soft and soft, making a rustling sound.
Yang Ruoqing held a pine branch in her hand and walked slowly in the woods.
In the wild, one of the indispensable tools in the hand is a wooden stick of moderate length and thickness, which is used to explore the way, and secondly, it can also repel snakes, insects, rats and ants.
The branches in Yang Ruoqing's hands regularly picked up the blades of grass under the roots of the tree and conducted a carpet search.
This season, just after the autumn equinox, many crops such as rice and cotton are being harvested and put into the warehouse one after another, but in this mountain field, many wild vegetables have reached the golden age of deliciousness.
After searching in the woods, Yang Ruoqing had a good harvest, and there were a lot of wild vegetables with an earthy smell in the bamboo basket.
Shepherd's cabbage, mother-in-law, horsehead orchid, in a place with shady terrain, also found a cluster of okra.
Okra looks at the color, a little old, and the taste is definitely not as good as fresh and tender, but it's okay, it can be used to wrap the belly!
This time they came out of the house, the Tan family did not give half of the vegetable garden to the three rooms, and even the few vegetable fields in front of the house where Yang Ruoqing and the others lived were planted with vegetables, and the Tan family was strict about not touching the three rooms!
When I had lunch before, the Sun family and Yang Ruoqing had a total, and in the past two days, the Sun family would go to the land assigned to him and come out to make a vegetable garden.
