Chapter 57: The First Three of Parting
"Sister-in-law."
Du Chunzheng was wearing a hat and holding a rake, drying rice in the scorching sun. The sweat dripped down his neck.
Hearing the voice, Du Chun looked up: "Hey, late girl, here!" As he spoke, he pinched the sweat towel around his neck and wiped the sweat off his face.
"Sister-in-law." Wan Ge pushed open the courtyard door, walked in around the rice, and followed by Qian Lei, who insisted on being together.
After the two of them tossed out the dried fish at home, Wange wanted to come to Du Chun. No, after lunch, she hurried over to find someone.
As for Qian Lei, it was all because he didn't worry about going out alone. The eldest brother has explained, and he must follow him every step of the way, and he must not let those with bad intentions have that opportunity to take advantage of the loopholes.
"This is ......" Du Chun looked at the man she followed the day after tomorrow, and couldn't remember that there was such a person in the village: "Your relatives? ”
If you are not from the village, you can only be a relative of the evening song.
Du Chun looked Qian Lei up and down vigilantly.
To be honest, Du Chun doesn't have a good image of Wange's relatives, probably because of the troublesome uncle.
"It's my good brother before my father-in-law, Qian Lei." The evening song explained simply.
Du Chun heard that it was Song Jiu's former good brother, and suddenly sighed, and his attitude changed. Warmly called Brother Qian and beckoned them into the house to sit.
"Come on, come on, drink herbal tea to relieve the heat." Du Chun poured them two bowls of herbal tea, and then brought out the dried pumpkin seeds and let them play with them.
Wan Ge sat down and hurriedly asked her if she had any dried fish to eat?
"Oops." Du Chun patted his thigh, smacked his lips and said that he had been busy harvesting and drying rice recently, and he had almost forgotten about this stubble.
"Late girl, did you do it?" After Du Chun asked, he seemed to have figured out something, and said firmly: "You must have done it, otherwise you wouldn't have asked me that." ”
Evening Song grinned, as if she was answering silently.
Du Chun couldn't sit still now, so he hurriedly asked how it was, how did it taste?
"It's hard, like chewing a rock, and it's a lot of teeth." Wan Ge said honestly.
Du Chun nodded: "Maybe it's too dry, just soak it in water before you get it." ”
In the past, they sometimes dried salted fish for too long, and they dried like iron, so hard that they couldn't do it. Before eating, soak it for half a morning.
"Sister-in-law, I didn't expect this at first." I almost didn't break my tooth: "I did it again later, and it would be much better." ”
The evening song told Du Chun about what they made, and felt that the dried fish made like that had a spicy taste, but they didn't add anything, and they were fragrant when they stir-fried.
"Sister-in-law, our place is remote, no one thinks about this, you can get some to sell, and you can make a fortune."
While this thing is not yet available, hurry up and get some to sell, and eat meat first. After all, this method is simple, and it is not difficult to learn.
As the saying goes, scarcity is expensive, and it is because there is no that it can be sold at a high price. When you look back, if someone sees it and learns from it, it won't be worth much at that time.
Du Chun also knows this, but she is not the one who has the final say in this matter. What's more, I've been busy harvesting rice recently, and I'm so busy that it's hard to get out of my hands.
It was Du Chun who had to say that when Zhao Zhuang came back, the two discussed and discussed before deciding.
After finishing business, the two talked about other things. When it comes to women, Qian Lei can't interject, and even if he can, he is embarrassed. Simply hold the pumpkin seeds and knock slowly, as a quiet listener,
"I was idle at home, and I wanted to come to you, and I didn't want to be stopped halfway." Wange told Du Chun about Yang Qian's coming to her two days ago.
The more Du Chun listened, the more angry he became, especially when he heard Yang Qian say that he wanted to go into the shop to help, he was even more angry and scolded the shameless vixen. What's more, Wan Ge should have scolded him directly at that time, this kind of person, what kind of face to spare, is completely here to beg for beating.
also helped, it was clearly a wolf's ambition and wanted to enter the house.
"Sister-in-law, don't be angry, and continue to listen to me." Wan Ge told the story of his own tricks later, and now Du Chun was finally relieved, but he still felt that Wan Ge was too face-saving to do this.
"You can't give a good face to this kind of person, otherwise you have to climb up the pole, and you can't get rid of it, which is very annoying." Du Chun said the evening song.
If it was her, she would be slapped with an ear scraper and teach her what it means to be polite, righteous and shameful.
Wan Ge covered her mouth and smiled and said that when she thought back later, she also felt that she was too face-saving. If you dare to come next time, take care of the 'hospitality', and it will never be the same as before.
"It's just, you can't give face." After saying that Du Chun taught her how to deal with this kind of person, the evening song listened carefully, and Qian Lei next to her listened to it embarrassed.
If those women in the high gate are smiling and scheming, then the women in the countryside are just going straight to catch them and not letting them go, and they will definitely make you hurt before they stop.
It's all unprovoked!
After chatting for a while, thinking that Du Chun was busy, he didn't bother anymore and got up and went back.
Du Chun was indeed busy, so he didn't stay long to send them to the door and said that they had been busy for the past two days, and after these two days, let them come over to play at any time.
After going back, Wange was also a little tired, and when he was about to go back to the house to sleep, Qian Lei suddenly came over with a suitcase.
"Sister-in-law, I'm leaving tonight." Qian Lei said and handed the box to Wan Ge, saying that this was a small gift he gave them for parting, and it was not valuable, so let Wan Ge wait for him to leave before opening it.
Otherwise, he's embarrassed.
Wan Ge was holding the box and was suddenly panicked by him, and he was confused: "Why are you in such a hurry, I said that I have not practiced to cook you a table of good dishes...... Stay two more days! ”
Wange tried his best to persuade him, saying that he was not well yet, and he would talk about leaving after staying for two more days. It just so happened that she asked Song Jiu to buy some good wine and good food and come back, and the two brothers had a good meal and a drink.
Qian Lei shook his head and said that it was still not possible, he should have left a long time ago.
It was also because of reluctance that it was delayed again and again, and now it can't be delayed. After thinking about it for so long, it's time to go back.
It's also very reluctant!
"Let's stay until next time, next time we must have a good taste of my sister-in-law's craftsmanship." Qian Lei grinned, but there was some reluctance in that smile.
I don't know when it will be next time, but it's better to have a thought than nothing.
"Brother Qian." Wange didn't know what to say for a while.
"Sister-in-law, don't say anything, we're not outsiders, so we're not so polite. Hurry up and rest, don't get tired. ”
"I've got to go for a nap, too, and I'm in a hurry for the evening." Saying that, the man stretched his waist and turned around to go back to the hall to rest.
Wan Ge hugged the wooden box, sighed and turned into the house.
She knows that people can't be retained, but it's a pity that she can't cook good dishes for people to practice.
Wange lay on the bed and turned over and over and couldn't sleep, how to think, how to think that this is not good. Anyway, you have to give people a good dish.
Let's not care about the relationship between people and Song Jiu, that is, everyone knows each other these days, and there are many right people, so it can't be so simple to pass.
What's more, I don't know what year it is when I leave, so I can't pass it shabbyly.
Thinking about it like this, Wange couldn't sit still. He turned over and got out of bed, got dressed, took the silver, and quietly went out.
It's too late to go to town at this time, not to mention, I'm afraid there is nothing to eat in the vegetable market. It's better to just look at the village and buy a fish and a duck.
She went to Du Chun's house first, after all, Zhao Zhuang often fishes on weekdays, and has the habit of staying in the water tank for a day or two to feed and eat. I just don't know if I've been busy working in the fields these days, and I've been fishing.
"Hey, what's wrong with the girl, what's wrong?" Du Chun looked at the evening song that had only been gone for a long time, and this time Brother Qian didn't follow. She was alone, wondering if there was something wrong.
Wan Ge asked Du Chun a little embarrassed across the fence if there were any fish at home, saying that Brother Qian was leaving, and it was too late for her to go to the town to buy it now, so she thought about coming over and asking if she could buy one.
"Fish!" Du Chun wiped his sweat and said that he had been busy harvesting rice in the past few days, and he had not gone fishing.
After listening to the evening song, I said in my heart that if I don't lose it, it's all fake.
"But a few days ago, we kept two or three of them in the water tank for themselves, and we planned to get food in the next two days. If you are in a hurry, I can give you a piece of it. ”
Wan Ge had already planned to buy chicken if she couldn't buy fish. I don't want to hear Du Chun's words, it can be said that I am overjoyed, like pie falling from the sky.
"Sister-in-law, thank you."
Du Chun waved his hand and didn't care much and said that there were two or three days, and they didn't eat it in one meal, and it was nothing to give the evening song evenly.
After saying that, the person put the farm tools to catch the fish for her, and thoughtfully filled the bucket with some water to put the fish in, so as not to dry up.
It's just that it's a little heavy.
"Can you mention it?" Du Chun looked at it, thinking about the human body, and picked up the wooden barrel with one hand and said to bring it back to her.
Let Wange be very embarrassed, besides, she is not in a hurry to go back now, she still has to buy ducks!
After Du Chun found out, he gave her a suggestion, asking her to go to the blind man in the village and buy it from him.
Afraid that he didn't know Wan Ge, Du Chun simply carried the fish bucket back to the stove room and took someone to buy it himself.
On the way, Du Chun told Wange that if she went to buy it alone, the people in the village who didn't know would be sure to burn her. Don't look at the fact that everyone lives in the same village, but some individuals are not soft at all, and it is better to buy it cheaply in the town!
Under Du Chun's guidance, he successfully found Zhang's blind family and bought a duck.
Carrying the fish bucket and the duck, Du Chun sent the people back. Fish, she didn't ask for money. She didn't ask for the evening song, saying that a fish is not worth much.
No, Wange asked them to come over for dinner in the evening.
Du Chun also pushed it, after all, people practiced it for Brother Qian, and they went to join in the fun. She said that the house was still drying rice buds and no one was watching, so she had to go back quickly.
After that, he turned around and left, and the bucket was left at the evening singer's house without mentioning it.
In the end, Du Chun confiscated the silver and did not agree to come to dinner in the evening.
Wange had to remember that she planned to ask Song Jiu to go to the town to buy a fish and return it to Du Chun.
