Zhao Laosan clasped the little lady in his arms with a big hand, a pair of dark eyes, deep and a little scattered, staring at Su Mi's white melon seed face: "Lady, don't think about it anymore, Master Xue is old, this Wang Dacun is all caused by his own good food and wine, and it has nothing to do with the lady." ”

Su Mi leaned against his man, sturdy and a little hairy. In the hot arms, my heart naturally felt better, shrunk my thin body, and pressed it tighter into my man's arms.

It rained for a few days, and the soil in this field was soaked, and all kinds of weeds on the ridges were brittle, and frogs barked all day long.

Su Mi and Zhao Laosan had dinner early today, Zhao Laosan saw that the sky was blue and clear in the evening, and tomorrow must be a good weather, and he didn't grind tofu for several days and went out to sell it, so he was very busy tonight.

After eating overnight, Su Mi was neat, rolled up his sleeves and cleaned up the stove. Zhao Laosan first soaked the beans selected in the past few days in warm water, in order to get rid of the smell of beans, Su Mi went to the ridge and folded some young cypress branches back and threw them in the beans.

It was the first time Zhao Laosan had seen this kind of soaking beans: "The lady is ingenious, this tofu will be a good meal tomorrow!" ”

Su Mi saw that his man was busy working, so he picked up the unfinished cloth shoes and sat under the oil lamp, "This is all learned from my mother, adding some verdant branches to the beans can cover the beans." ”

There were more beans soaked today than in the past, and Su Mi didn't say anything, and the two of them didn't feel tired after resting for a few days. Su Mi was beside her man, a pair of small and white hands, pulling the needle and thread in her hand back and forth.

When he saw that the beans were swollen, he used a basket to take them out and soaked them in slightly inferior color. From time to time, I looked at the lady under the oil lamp next to me, and my heart was beautiful, but I felt that I was working more energetically with one hand.

In less than two hours, Su Mi finished the rest of the work in his hand. A pair of sturdy thick-soled cloth shoes were placed in the wire frame, and when he got up, he saw that his man was cleaning up, "Husband, wash your feet when you're done, and try the new cloth shoes." ”

Zhao Laosan just finished cleaning up, took out a wooden basin and scooped half a basin of hot water in the stove pot, and when he turned around, he saw his wife standing at the table. With a shy face, a pair of apricot eyes became more and more agile and delicate under the glow of the oil lamp: "Although the weather is good tomorrow, after all, it has rained for several days, and there is a lot of mud on this road, and I am a rough person who is afraid that it will dirty these cloth shoes!" ”

Su Mi took the wooden basin in his man's hand, squatted down, and put the man's big feet into the basin. He quickly rolled up his sleeves, soaked his lotus-like white hands in the water, and poured warm water on the man's water with his palms.

This is the first time that Zhao Laosan has been served and washed by his own wife.. feet, sitting on the chair in a daze, only staring at Su Mi with dark eyes, a kind of warmth slowly swept from the soles of his feet to his whole body.

Although Su Mi is small, his movements are very sharp, and after a while, he washed his man's feet, picked them up and put them on his knees, and wiped the water with a burlap. Only then did he take out the cloth shoes in the wireframe and put them on for the man to wear, seeing that it was not too big or small, it was just right, and his thin lips grinned to reveal a gentle smile, "Husband, these shoes just fit, seeing that you walk fast in the past few days, and do things informally, I deliberately made the soles thicker." Husband doesn't care if it doesn't rain, I'll make two more pairs tomorrow, and my husband will wear it! ”

Zhao Laosan was stunned, looked at Su Mi and said softly, and reached out to hug her horizontally. After more than 20 days of marriage, Su Mi has long been accustomed to her man holding her.

Zhao Laosan put the lady in his arms on the huge bed, Su Mi was a little ashamed, and his little face was a little red under the oil lamp. Shrinking back, he covered himself with a wide quilt.

The man couldn't bear it anymore, and pressed his wife in his arms sideways. Below, a pair of thin lips covered it, and a pair of big hands were gently and trembling in swimming. Walk.

Su Mi's feet seemed to be stepping on a cloud, fluttering! Although it was late at night, the two of them had a good meal.

On the second day, Su Mi didn't get up, Zhao Laosan wanted to get up and boil the tofu and press it into a tight square.

Su Mi got up, the sun shone in the yard, his whole body was a little sore, thinking of the cloud and rain last night, his delicate cheeks were half red.

Reaching out to uncover the quilt, the dark colors on the green cloth mattress sheet were dull but very dazzling. When I was in Sujia Village, I often heard those villagers break their mouths and say that women's heads... I'm going to see you at night... Red, otherwise it is a person who does not abide by women's morals.

Su Mi tore off the green cloth sheet, but she had no strength in her body, her legs were paralyzed, and she could only slowly change the clean sheet.

Then he soaked the changed mattress sheet in a wooden basin, and then walked towards the stove. Zhao Laosan knew that his wife got up late, and when he left, he heated his breakfast in the stove pot, and left some bright charcoal fire on the stove, which was just right for Su to eat.

Su Mi opened the lid of the pot, and the fragrance of steamed buns came to his nose, there was no meat in the buns and wild vegetables, but with lard, the lower mouth was very soft and glutinous and sweet.

Su Mi ate three times in a row, and drank most of the bowl of soy milk, only then did he feel that he had some strength in his body.

After eating, he cleaned up the stove room and went out to the yard to wash the mattress sheets that had been changed. Originally, this mattress was going to be washed in the river, but Su Mi felt very ashamed when she thought of what happened to her man last night. lest they go to the river and the other women will see them and gossip about them.

Fortunately, Zhao Laosan has a well in his house, it rained a few days ago, and this well is full of water every day. It's clear and translucent, and when you come back from farming, you can feel the sweetness between your mouths when you drink it directly.

In the yard, the mattress sheet was washed with well water, and it was dried, and when I saw that the gown that Zhao Laosan had changed was not washed, it was quickly put into a wooden basin.

Su Mi locked the courtyard door and prepared to go to the river to wash his coat. Half of the well water has been used today, and if it is to be continued, Zhao Laosan will have to go out to carry water tomorrow to grind tofu.

Su Mi felt sorry for her man, so she went out to wash other clothes.

When they arrived at the river, there were a lot of women who washed their clothes, and when they saw Su Mi coming, they all greeted them with all their money: "The daughter-in-law of the Zhao family is here, how many days has your tofu been selling well?" ”

The gossip was common for a while, and the work at hand did not stop, one or two dirty coarse cloth coats, and a quarter of an hour's work was in vain.

The village woman couldn't help but praise Su Mi when she saw Su Mi's white hands, swinging around in the water with her man's gown, and her movements were very neat. At first, these village women thought that Zhao Laosan married such a delicate lady, and she must be a person who does not touch the spring water with her fingers, but she did not lose to a woman from ten miles and eight towns when she started her work.

Su Mi finished washing, said hello to these village women, and went back with his man's clothes.

Before he arrived at the door of the house, he heard a familiar voice, and his heart was stunned, and his hands tightly pinched the edge of the wooden basin, and he walked back.

"Brother and sister-in-law...... How did you get here? ”
