Chapter 21: Work in the Fields
This man is so easy to deceive, looking at his little lady's watery eyes and red bloodshots, he knows that she has just cried. After entering the courtyard, he hurriedly put down the cart in his hand and wrapped his hand around his wife.
Being held like this by his own man, Su Mi felt more and more wronged, and a pair of clear and translucent eyes were full of tears, which fell on the back of the man's hand.
Zhao Laosan's eyebrows twisted, his heart was stunned, he didn't know what happened to his little lady, and turned her body sideways: "What's wrong with the lady?" Are you tired of going to Shimoda? Let you stay at home, and I will do the work in the fields, and you will be stubborn. ”
Seeing that there was some reproach between the man's words, the woman was a little angry, and pushed away the man sitting on the chair next to the mill: "Husband, you divorce me!" ”
"What kind of nonsense is the lady talking about?" Zhao Laosan's face sank, and his eyes were a little angry. After unloading the wooden box in the cart, he scooped a basin of water and washed his hands, and saw that his little lady was still crying, and his heart finally softened: "Don't talk such bastard nonsense, you and I husband and wife, isn't it good that you and I can be so affectionate in this troubled world?" ”
"Those women in the village said that I was Kefu's life, and even these female dolls were so frightened that they cried when they saw me, and I couldn't hurt my husband!" Su Mi tilted her head, her delicate little face flushed with anxiety.
When the man saw his wife's anxious and sad appearance, he actually laughed out loud, only to feel that her cuteness was tight.
"What are you laughing at?"
The man paced over and bowed the little lady's waist. body, thin lips closed one by one and said: "Do you take those village women's nonsense seriously?" ”
Seeing that the man was not sad or annoyed, his eyebrows and eyes were still full of smiles, and his heart became more and more aggrieved, and he stretched out a pair of small hands to beat the man's chest: "Husband, what are you laughing at, people were bullied by those women in the field today, and you are still happy!" ”
The corners of the man's mouth were grinning, his eyes were gentle, and a pair of big hands gently dragged the woman's small and white palms, "I laugh at the cute lady, the mouth of the woman in the field, you just listen to it!" ”
"But I also feel strange, this Master Xue has always been in good health, why did he die when he was ready to kiss me? and Wang Dacun...... Although this Wang Omura likes to drink, he will not drink himself to death......"
"Don't talk about it, lady, none of this has anything to do with you. I'm hungry, go to the stove and make lunch! Although the man's voice was gentle, it was a little cold.
Su Mi stopped talking, the men said it was a coincidence, she saw that the man was a little impatient, so she stopped her mouth and reached out to wipe the tears on her cheeks: "Husband, go and rest for a while, drink saliva, and I will go to the stove to cook immediately." ”
After finishing speaking, he took the food that the man bought back and entered the stove room. Zhao Laosan looked at this small back, and there was indescribable pity in his heart.
Although Su Mi was busy all morning, he didn't feel tired, and a meal was served after a while. The two of them were eating, and Zhao Laosan actually took out the wine today and drank a small half bowl.
"Why did you come back so early today?" In the past, Su Mi was at home alone, and Zhao Laosan didn't come back until almost evening.
"Isn't the work in the field still undone? Today, the tofu was sold cheaply, and in the afternoon, I went to the field to turn over the field. Zhao Laosan drank half a bowl of wine, and his cheeks were slightly red.
"The husband will rest for a while after eating, and in the afternoon when the sun goes down, I will go to the field with you." Su Mi had already eaten, stood up and quickly put away the dishes and chopsticks on the table, turned his head to stare at his man and said softly.
After the woman cleaned up the stove, she brushed the mud on the man's cloth shoes and hung it in the yard, and went into the bedroom to prepare to take off the man's body. The gown that came down was washed.
At the door, he heard the man's even breathing, so he crept in, and before his hand touched the pillow, the man opened his eyes.
"Husband, you're awake!"
The woman was about to say that you will sleep a little longer, but the man reached out and hugged her, put it on the bed, and turned sideways to put this soft. Soft body press. In the body. Under.
Xu is because he drank the wine just now, Xu is saw that his little lady was stupid and cute, and his heart became more and more pitiful. Although the man's movements were lighter, the sound of his breathing became heavier and heavier.
After some clouds and rain, Zhao Laosan let go of his little lady and fell asleep again. Su Mi hugged his strong arm, saw that he had an unobstructed view, his face turned red, he pulled the futon cover, and fell asleep deeply.
The two slept for an hour, and Zhao Laosan got up but saw that the lady next to him was also awake: "You rest for a while, I'll go to the field to have a look." ”
The woman hurriedly got up and put on her clothes, followed the man and picked up a hoe and went down to the field.
When the two arrived in the field, the man saw that the paddy field had been turned over for a week, and frogs jumped out from time to time in the clear water, and turned to look at the woman behind him: "Although the lady is small, her hands and feet are very neat, and she is not inferior to the women in this village at all in her work." ”
"So, I said that I can do all the work in this field, and you don't allow me to go to the field!" Su Mi saw his man praising himself like this, and his heart was happy, so he pulled up his trouser leg to reveal a white ankle, and went into the water.
Zhao Laosan knew that his wife had suffered a lot in her mother's family, and she did all the rough work, and she couldn't be idle every day when she married her. Now he is so stubborn, he is really helpless, other women want to rest at home, mother-in-law and his man are not allowed, but he is a lady who likes to work in the field.
"The lady's skin is like cream, her eyes are like clear lake water, and her hands and feet are even softer. How can I be willing to make you a swarthy and rugged woman. "Zhao Laosan really pities his little lady, he has been in Zhaojia Village for seven or eight years, and he has been to several nearby towns, Su Mi is the first time to see such a beautiful village woman, how can he not cherish it, I wish I would love it in the palm of my hand every day.
Seeing that the man's mouth seemed to be smeared with honey, Su Mi's heart was sweet, and the movements in his hands became more and more powerful. Trenches were dug and excess water was put in. The man went to Zhou Qingcheng's house in the village to borrow a cow, and the black buffalo was very strong, with a pair of black eyes and a bulging belly.
After an hour's work, half of the paddy field was ploughed, and Su Mi cut the green grass on the ridge and stacked it together to feed the cattle later.
After mowing the grass, Zhao Laosan rested. Su Mi hurriedly handed over the kettle, and the man took the kettle and threw himself up. Strong arms in the sun, sweaty.
After drinking the water, Su Mi fed the buffalo with the green grass, and the buffalo flicked its tail and graze leisurely in the shade of the tree, calling twice from time to time.
After resting for a while, Zhao Laosan drove the cattle down to the field again.
Zhao Laosan is in this paddy field in Zhaojia Village, and the sun is bright and big, and the two of them will not be able to eat all the food in a year.
In the evening, the man led the buffalo and the woman followed him home.
"You go back and get a few pieces of tofu, send them to Zhou Qingcheng's house, and I'll bring the buffalo over." It was almost time to reach the entrance of the village, and the man commanded the woman.
The woman nodded and paced back neatly, put down the hoe and sickle in her hand, went to the water basin of the stove room to take two pieces of thick tofu, picked them up with banana leaves, put them in the basket, and then walked towards Zhou's house.
When the man of the Zhou family and the master of the Zhou family were talking, the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family saw that Su Mi was coming, so she put away her smile and didn't accept the tofu.
"Woman of the Zhou family, you can accept this tofu and stew fish for your little grandson!" Su Mi's voice was soft and cowardly, and he raised the basket and handed it to the woman of the Zhou family.
The woman's face sank, revealing a look of doubt: "The daughter-in-law of the Zhao family, Zhao Laosan has sent us a lot of this tofu back and forth, so don't you want it!" ”
"I borrowed your buffalo, if I don't accept this little tofu......"
"The daughter-in-law of the Zhao family, bring it back!"
Su Mi's mind was already shallow, but Zhao Laosan saw the problem and took the basket in Su Mi's hand: "Lady, let's go back, I have already given the silver money to this buffalo, so it should be rented." ”
The two women gave up and returned home, where the man took out the tofu and put it back in a basin and soaked it in water. It's getting hotter and hotter every day, and if the tofu is not soaked in cold water, it will stink for a day.
"Husband, it seems that the women of the family have deliberately given birth to me this week, did I offend them somewhere?" Su Mi asked puzzled while washing her hands.
Zhao Laosan naturally knew that it was because the women in the village said that his woman was Kefu's life. Whenever he went out, the women outside also pointed at him, and some women persuaded him to take a quick break from the little lady at home.
Thinking of this, the man saw his little lady Bai Shengsheng holding a handful of green vegetables in her hand, standing in front of him, and her voice was very crisp: "Husband, let's cook noodles and eat them at night." ”
"Whatever the lady says, it's what it is!" The man was so distressed that he reached out and pinched her delicate cheeks, and couldn't help but hug her waist and follow him to the stove room.
The two had dinner, took a shower and slept on the bed, Zhao Laosan had something on his mind today, and he couldn't fall asleep for a long time. Su Mi saw the man tossing and turning, and he couldn't sleep, so he stretched out his softness. The soft hand came to wrap around the man's waist: "Why can't the husband sleep?" ”
"Starting tomorrow, you will come with me to the town to sell tofu!" Zhao Laosan originally pitied his own lady, for fear that she would go to the town with him, and she would get up early and be tired of being greedy. Seeing her in the village, being bullied by these village women, my heart was angry again.
"Why did the husband suddenly change his mind?"
Zhao Laosan turned around and hugged his little lady into his arms, "You are different from these village women, I don't want them to talk about you again, only the gods and bodhisattvas know what a gentle and virtuous wife I, Zhao Laosan, have married." ”
When a woman heard this, she only felt warm in her heart. The hesitant movements of the woman of the Zhou family, she roughly understood. These village women all hate her for fear of having something to do with her.
"Then early tomorrow morning, I will get up with my husband to grind tofu, and then go to the street to do business." Su Mi's voice was sweet, wafting in the night. When the man saw that the little lady in his arms was so happy, he was relieved, and slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
