Chapter 004: Beginning to Resist
Chunzhi carried the water and staggered all the way back to the gate of the Chai family.
It wasn't until this time that she carefully saw what the main gate of the Chai family looked like. And even if she was mentally prepared, she was still made cold by what she saw.
This house is a little better than her maiden home!
According to Wang's third daughter-in-law, the old patriarch originally planned to give a cowshed at the end of the village to the Wang family and his son to live in, but where was the Wang family willing to do it? Naturally, she jumped up and down again, and pulled the old patriarch's precious grandson alive and screamed to die together. The old patriarch was so annoyed that he couldn't do it, and because of the face of the Wang family's father who had built a road in the village, he gave her an old house in the middle of the village that had been in disrepair for a long time. This is the house where Wang's mother and son live now.
Over the years, the Wang family has also thought of repairing the exterior wall, and the rest is just made up. Now the house is mottled from the inside out, and when the wind blows, the wooden door creaks and squeaks, as if it can fall down at any moment and die.
Haruka remembered that the door of her mother's house was not so broken. Fortunately, the doors, windows, tables and chairs in the house were broken, and her father could find something to replace them immediately.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a squeak. Before I saw anyone, Wang's familiar loud voice had already penetrated into my ears-
"Lazy woman, what are you doing standing at the door of your house early in the morning? You want to be lazy again, don't you? I'm telling you, no way! Hurry up and let me in, my son married you and entered the door, but I didn't let you be a young grandmother to enjoy the blessings! ”
At the moment when her voice sounded, the third daughter-in-law of Wang quickly ran away with a bucket of water. The little third son, who had been inseparable from Chunzhi all the way just now, also meowed and ran up to the beam.
In the blink of an eye, only the lonely Chunzhi was left here, facing the Wang family who came to him with a fierce face.
Facing that face, Chunzhi paused, quickly lowered his eyes and stepped away, carrying the burden into the house.
As soon as she entered the door, she saw that her new husband Chai Dong had already gotten up. Now he has changed into a white-washed robe, but the clothes are cleanly washed, and they are worn on him obediently, making him look slender and slender, like a green bamboo that has not yet grown. His hair was also neatly combed, although it was only tied up with a wooden hairpin, but there was an inexplicable smell on his body. Harueda remembers that she had only seen it in the boys who were studying at the village's private school.
Those were people she hadn't dared to look at in the past. As a result, now, her husband actually has such a smell on his body, and she can't help but look at it twice.
Chai Dong noticed her gaze, and his face immediately sank. "What are you looking at?"
"That's it, you don't work when you enter the door, what are you staring at me?" Wang also roared violently.
Chunzhi woke up immediately, she quickly lowered her head and carried the bucket into the kitchen.
There was still a small half tank of water left in the kitchen. The two and a half buckets of water that Haruka picked up were poured in, and the water tank was not half filled.
Wang was very dissatisfied with this result, and stared at Chunzhi with a knife in his eyes.
"Didn't the matchmaker say that you are very diligent with your hands and feet? But how can you go out for half a day and you come back with such a little water? Forget it, now it's important for my son to eat, you clean the yard for me before you go to eat, and then go to fetch water after eating, lest the villagers say that I am bullying my new daughter-in-law! ”
As she spoke, she shoved the broom into Haruka's hand. "Quickly clean the yard and sprinkle it with water. My son has a bad nose, if there is too much smoke and dust in the yard and chokes him, see if I don't hit you! ”
Haruka obediently took a broom and cleaned up the yard.
Wang stood on the side with her hands crossed and stared at her for a long time, making sure that she was sweeping the floor well, and then she nodded with satisfaction: "That's it, sweep well!" The old lady is going to cook breakfast for me, don't be lazy. Otherwise, you won't want to eat breakfast for a while! ”
Entering the kitchen, Wang kept looking out of the small window while lighting a fire and cooking, and his eyes did not take his eyes off Chunzhi for long.
Slowly, with the sound of brushing and sweeping, there was a pungent fragrance in the kitchen - it was the smell of white noodles!
The smell of incense lingered on the tip of his nose, and he couldn't wave it away, and Chunzhi's stomach couldn't help but start growling.
As soon as the voice came out, a low snort came out of the nose of the young man who was holding a book and looking down. Wang's ears were also very smart, and she immediately shot two sharp glances from the kitchen window, and yelled at Chunzhi: "Lazy woman, didn't you see that your man has been reading books for a long time?" Why don't you hurry up and bring him water to wash his face? Look at whose daughter-in-law gave it to you, it's lazy and gluttonous, it's hopeless! ”
Chunzhi silently put down the broom, went into the kitchen and fetched hot water, and brought it to the boy. Chai Dong still didn't look at him, but the action of holding water and washing his face was extremely smooth.
After he had washed his face, Haruka put down the tub and turned around to continue sweeping the floor with a broom.
When she swept the yard and sprinkled it with water, Wang in the kitchen began to call again: "Lazy woman, why don't you hurry up and serve food?" You know that you are in a daze all day long, and you are not a wooden stake! ”
Since last night, she has been scolded, and now the Wang family has not stopped in the morning, and Chunzhi has become numb. She hurriedly went into the kitchen again, and saw that two coarse porcelain bowls had been placed on the stove, and in the bowls were half a bowl of thin porridge so thin that a human figure could be seen. There was also a plate of radish with sauce, but the radish strips in it could be counted on ten fingers.
Still, Harue could clearly smell the enticing scent of white noodles lingering in the kitchen.
But as soon as she glanced at the stove, Wang quickly moved around and used her skinny body to block the steaming cauldron behind her.
"What do you see? I called you in to work, not to run around! It's really the daughter of a small family, and she doesn't understand the rules at all! ”
Su Ran hurriedly lowered his head and brought the two bowls of gruel and sauce radish to the table. When she turned around, Wang quickly took out two big steamed buns from the pot, and as soon as they were put into the bowl, she hid the bowl with the steamed buns under the cotton clothes.
Secretly took the steamed buns outside, and then she took out the steamed buns and stuffed them into the young man's hand: "Son, you eat quickly, don't be hungry!" ”
Chai Dong hummed, picked up a steamed bun and ate it.
Wang watched her son eat half a steamed bun with pity, and then she returned to the kitchen, picked up a bowl of gruel by herself, and drank it deliciously.
Seeing this, Chunzhi also picked up her bowl of gruel without saying a word and drank it slowly.
After drinking the porridge, Wang put the empty bowl on the table: "Hurry up and eat, wash the bowl after eating, and then go out to fill the water tank with water." Also, in order to marry you, I saved a bunch of dirty clothes at home and didn't wash them, and you washed them for me for a while. Tomorrow if my son doesn't have clean clothes to wear, you see what I do to you! ”
Chunzhi glanced at her silently, drank the gruel in the bowl in two bites, and silently began to clean up the dishes and chopsticks.
After scrubbing the pots and pans, she went out to see her little husband sitting under the tree and reading again. Chunzhi went in and out of the door a few times, and finally filled the water tank, and she picked up the dirty clothes that Wang had thrown out earlier, and carried them to the river at the head of the village to wash.
Just a few times back and forth, she had already seen the locations in the village. This time she did not need to find someone to lead the way, she went by herself.
"Harueda, this way!" Wang's third daughter-in-law came one step ahead of her. Seeing her coming from afar, Wang's third daughter-in-law hurriedly beckoned to her.
Haruka arrived at her, and the two of them were next to each other doing laundry together.
"I was frightened when I saw the sixth aunt come out just now, and I didn't care about you by myself, you won't blame me, right?" When she was washing clothes, Wang's third daughter-in-law asked her in a whisper.
Harukeda shook her head. "What do I blame you for? You've helped me a lot. ”
Wang's third daughter-in-law sighed again. "You're such a good girl, what a pity!"
Haruka pursed her lips and continued to lower her head to wash her clothes.
After washing and drying a bunch of clothes, Wang arranged a bunch of things for her to do. The whole village saw that the new daughter-in-law had been busy like a spinning top since the day after she entered her mother-in-law's house.
It was easy for her to finish all the things that Wang had explained, and it was already dark at this time.
After simply drinking a bowl of gruel and washing his face with water, Chunzhi followed Wang's order and entered the room with a basin of water.
"Mother asked me to bring water to soak your feet." She said to the boy who was sitting motionless in front of the window.
"You put the water down and you're good to go." Chai Dong pointed casually, but still didn't look at her.
"Mother said, let me serve you to soak your feet." Haruka put down the tub but didn't walk away.
"I don't need you to serve me." Chai Dong said.
Harukie didn't move, her eyes fixed on him. "If I want to go out now, my mother will definitely scold me again."
"That's your business!" The boy said coldly.
Haruka looked at him again, suddenly squatted down, grabbed one of the boy's feet with one hand, took off his shoes and socks, and put them into the water. Taking off one, she reached for the other.
When Chai Dong reacted, he found that his second foot was already on the water! He struggled to break his foot out of her grasp. As a result, who knew that Chunzhi slammed his hand hard, and he was stunned to press his foot!
The boy was furious. Unexpectedly, before he could speak, Chunzhi had already raised his head and looked at him coldly: "You give me honesty!" ”
The boy was stunned. "What did you say?"
"I tell you to be honest and stop making trouble!" Haruzhi said word by word.
The young man was stunned again, and then his eyes became gloomy.
Just as he was about to speak, Haruka took another step to grab the conversation. "Don't use your mother to crush me again. It's such a big person, you know to call your mother when you encounter something, are you embarrassed? ”
"What am I embarrassed about?" The boy sneered. Immediately, he shouted out the window, "Mother, she bullied me!" ”
