Chapter Twenty-Seven: I Haven't Seen Her Sweep the Yard
Wang Wenjing nodded, secretly glanced at Zhong Miao, and whispered, "You take the back basket down, and I'll hold it in." ”
After Mrs. Jiang heard this, she noticed that Zhong Miao was carrying a basket on her back, and she was anxious, "A frame full of pigweed, how heavy is this!" You've grown so big, you haven't done such heavy work! It's time for these shoulders to get red marks! ”
Lowering her head, she couldn't help but talk about Wang Wenjing again, "Why are you lazy girl?" I've cut so much, how can I let the wonderful girl carry it......"
Wang Wenjing's face turned red when she was said, and she stammered, "Yes, she said that she was afraid of being seen by the villagers, and thought that she was treating me harshly, so she insisted on carrying it." ”
even used his hands and feet to pull the back basket off Zhong Miao's body.
Zhong Miao held down her hand, turned back to Mrs. Jiang and said, "Grandma, I just memorized it once today, but Wen Jing recited it every day, and she was only eight years old." ”
Mrs. Jiang suddenly lost her words, looked at Zhong Miao and then looked at Wang Wenjing who lowered her head, and didn't know what to say for a moment.
She moved her lips, but she didn't say anything.
Zhong Miao also saw that Mrs. Jiang was probably uncomfortable, and she was busy smiling and playing round, "But it's not in the way, I asked this girl, she also tried to save trouble and only hit enough pigweed at one time, so it was inevitably too heavy." I just said her earlier, and I will run back and forth more in the future. No matter how bad it is, won't there still be me? If nothing else, it's too easy to memorize something. ”
When I turned around, I saw that Wang Wenjing was just hooking her head, and hurriedly pushed her, "Grandma feels sorry for you, why don't you express your stance quickly, is it difficult to wait for Grandma to cry out in distress?" ”
Wang Wenjing raised her head in panic, tears flashing in her eyes.
"Grandma, I'm lazy, I'll make two trips next time. Zhong Miao said, my back is too heavy for a long time, and I won't grow tall......"
Mrs. Jiang's heart is really mixed.
She hugged Wang Wenjing into her arms with red eyes, "Miao Yatou is right, you can't do this in the future, don't say it yourself, if you don't grow tall, how can you wear beautiful clothes in the future." ”
Wang Wenjing replied in a low voice, "I remember." ”
Wang Baolian didn't speak until this moment, "It's dark, and we're all going in." I'm waiting for us to have dinner inside, and I'm afraid my father will find out if we continue to talk. ”
Mrs. Jiang cleaned up a little, "Blame me, I forgot about this stubble." Holding Wang Wenjing with one hand, and Zhong Miao with the other, he walked inside, "Hurry up, the food will be cold, you can simply wash your hands and feet, and then go back to the house to wipe your face and come to the dinner table." ”
A group of four people entered the door one after another, and with a creak, the wooden door shut.
That night, Zhong Miao washed up early and went to bed.
She didn't take a nap, she had trouble with Lin Meihua and Liang Hongxia again during the day, and went outside for a spin, she was really tired.
She slept very well all night, and when she got up the next day, she only felt refreshed.
Zhong Miao stood in front of the house to breathe in the fresh air.
Wang Wenjing also got up early in the morning, because she had cut enough pigweed yesterday afternoon, so she didn't go out in the morning.
She is very sensible and helps Yang Qingxiang feed the chickens and ducks. It was the first time I had picked up eggs, and I took out four or five of them from the coop and carried them out with the hem of my clothes.
I happened to see Zhong Miao stretching out his arms and kicking his legs in the yard, and he rushed over to show off.
Zhong Miao also gave face, and said a few nice words perfunctorily, and Wang Wenjing happily went to the kitchen with the eggs.
Wang Baolian is also a habit of getting up early, now that the weather is hot, she can't stay in the house, while the sun is still struggling on the wall, she simply does needlework under the grape trellis.
Zhong Miao leaned over and asked her how many days the needlework would be delivered.
"It's usually once every three days." Wang Baolian was embroidering half of the lotus flower in the middle of a handkerchief at the moment, without raising her head, "What are you asking for?" ”
Zhong Miao said casually, "I just want to go to the town to have a look." ”
- Not really!
She thought a lot before going to bed last night, and now she is penniless, and she can't do anything without money.
She couldn't wait to go to the town to see if there was any stone cauliflower for sale, and the stone cauliflower could be made into stone flower cake, even if she didn't have the money to make four-fruit soup for a while, she could make the simplest iced dessert through stone flower cake.
You know, in Fujian, iced stone cake is also very popular.
I guess I can try it in this era.
The point is that it is much simpler than the four-fruit soup, as long as you pour sugar or honey, it is a good summer dish to clear heat and detoxify.
Wang Baolian thought she was greedy for excitement, and took the time to glance at her, "That's not simple, the town is naturally much more lively than the village, but if you meet the market, it is dazzling, and there is everything." ”
Zhong Miao was intrigued.
Wang Baolian continued, "It just so happens that I plan to deliver the goods next time when I am in the town to catch the market, if you want to go, you will go together." Go back and tell your mother yourself, otherwise I won't dare to take you. ”
Wang Baolian's face was flat and her voice was calm, but Zhong Miao was stunned to hear the coldness in her words.
She tried to explain the last two sentences, but Wang Baolian suddenly stood up, said that she had forgotten to take something, put the work in her hand on the table and left.
Zhong Miao looked at her departing graceful figure, knowing that she couldn't do anything at the moment, so she simply got up and left.
She went to the kitchen and took a turn, and saw Yang Qingxiang wearing an old apron tidying up the kitchen hygiene, so she wanted to come forward to help.
Unexpectedly, he was directly driven away by Yang Qingxiang, "You are not needed here, you go out quickly, I am enough alone." ”
Zhong Miao scratched her head, seeing that she couldn't stand on the kitchen floor, so she had to go out.
After she got out of the yard, she looked at the fallen leaves in the yard and took a broom to sweep the floor.
Before he could sweep it a few times, Wang Ping suddenly opened the curtain from the second room, opened his round eyes and began to shout.
"Mother, she's sweeping the yard! I've never seen her at work! ”
As soon as Wang Ping shouted, Wang An also ran out, and Rao is Liang Hongxia couldn't catch him when he was behind.
"Ouch, it's so strange, this ugly monster actually swept the floor-hmm-" Before Wang An finished shouting, Liang Hongxia had already covered his mouth in a panic, and still remembered the trouble caused by a few words yesterday.
"What are you yelling about, don't mess with her in the future!" Liang Hongxia scolded lightly, but she couldn't help but look into the yard.
She was beaten badly yesterday, and now her face is still swollen, and a plaster is attached to her forehead.
She was sneaky, and if it weren't for the twins, she didn't want to get out of the house. Here they were still busy arresting Wang Ping and Wang An into the house, and over there, Zhong Miao had already seen the three of them, mother and son.
Liang Hongxia had to say hello with a smile, "It's Zhong Miao, I'm up early today!" He shouted politely, "No, Zhong Miao, don't work, after a while, my mother will see it and maybe say that we are lazy and don't have long hands." You put the broom away, and your brother and sister will sweep the yard when they are done with the kitchen. ”
