Chapter 27: Snowball Fight
"I've already said no, my sister thinks the same way, sister, right?"
Shen Zhao'er nodded, "I think Wan'er is right." ”
"How can this work, you have to make a good start in the new year, is it possible that your heads are not well opened, and this year will be unlucky?"
Shen Zhao'er immediately felt that it made sense and looked at Shen Wan'er's side, but because Shen Wan'er was relatively strong, she opened her mouth but didn't say anything.
The main thing is that for a while I didn't think about what to say.
Shen Wan'er looked at him coldly, "No matter how unlucky you are, it won't be worse than the previous two years, the whole family can't afford to eat, digging wild vegetables every day, and now it's much better than before, at least you don't have to go up the mountain every day to dig wild vegetables, you can also eat meat every once in a while." ”
"Dad, don't forget, you can still drink sometimes."
"Why are you so stubborn, the New Year's money I said was not used by me, but put it with me overnight, and then return to your pocket during the day tomorrow, what else can you not be satisfied with?"
"Dad, don't think that I don't know what you're thinking, you just want to ask for the money, give us less when the time comes, and then we can't do anything about you."
Shen Da's face was empty-hearted, and it was not once or twice that he was directly exposed by Shen Wan'er, he raised his voice, "How can you think of me like this, I'm your father!" ”
"If you weren't my father, you see that I don't care about you, if it's not my father, I won't raise my eyes wherever you like, just because you are my father, and now I provide you with food and clothing, what are you not satisfied with?"
Shen Zhao'er silently stopped talking, not to mention Shen Da, even she was raised by Shen Wan'er, thinking of the money in her purse.
Shen Zhao'er felt that she was becoming more and more unconfident in speaking, there was no way, she had a soft mouth and a short hand, this was an eternal truth, and with Shen Wan'er's money, she felt that she was not so hard to speak.
"Can you raise me, I don't do anything at home, even sometimes I have to cook, and I often have to go up the mountain to chop wood, but you tell me, where is this dependent on you!"
"Those are what you should do, if you just go up the mountain to chop firewood or only cook and wash dishes, where does the meat come from, where does the rice come from, the rice grown at home has already been sold, and the new ones have not been planted, by the way, there are some things that can be bought without money, that is, wild vegetables, but how many wild vegetables have you eaten during this time?"
Wild vegetables can't be said to be a little uneaten, but there is really not much to eat, since the fragrance has spread all over the city, their food at home has really risen more than a little bit.
Now Shen Da had nothing to say, and he knew in his heart that most of the time he couldn't get any money from Shen Wan'er, and he glanced at Shen Zhao'er, who didn't talk much from beginning to end, and his heart was full of thoughts.
Shen Wan'er must have a lot of money, but Shen Zhao'er must also have money, Shen Zhao'er is different from Shen Wan'er, her heart is softer, maybe he will be able to succeed after a while.
"That's okay, if you don't give it, you won't give it, tomorrow will be the first day of the new year, and I won't quarrel with you."
was interrupted by Shen Da like this, Shen Wan'er's mind to continue embroidering was gone, and it was not too early, so she went back to her room to sleep.
On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, the family of three specially changed into new clothes made a few days ago, which were all sandwiched with thick cotton, and it was very warm to wear.
Especially Shen Da, after breakfast, he deliberately wore new clothes, and walked around the whole village just to show off his new clothes.
In the first year of junior high school, it was basically all fun, there were a lot of children playing snowball fights in the open space, a few older children were having fun coming and going, and a few little dolls who were only a few years old also wanted to join.
But he was not as nimble as an older child, and he finally gathered a snowball and tried to throw it, but he didn't run a few steps before he snapped and fell to the ground.
Shen Wan'er burst out laughing, and the little fat ball that fell down continued to work hard, humming and getting up, and then wanted to join the army of snowball fights.
The sound of laughter was not small, and Liu Chunhua looked a little eager to try, "Wan'er, why don't we go to a snowball fight too?" ”
There are men and women who have snowball fights, none of them are very old, and the oldest is only a teenager, and they are all unmarried boys and girls, boys and girls.
Shen Wan'er glanced down at the new clothes on her body, then raised her head and smiled brightly, "Okay! ”
Shen Zhao'er didn't go out with Shen Wan'er when she went out, but Shen Wan'er knew in her heart that he would definitely go to Lin Yue'er, for this brainless sister, Shen Wan'er didn't know what to say, maybe she wanted Shen Zhao'er to suffer Lin Yue'er's loss once before she could see what Lin Yue'er's attributes were.
After Shen Wan'er and Liu Chunhua joined, there were also other people who threw snowballs at them, coming and going, and finally it turned into a scuffle.
Shen Wan'er and Liu Chunhua had a good time, even if the new clothes on their bodies were stained with some water, they couldn't stop their good mood.
"Don't play, don't play, I'm hot." It's not easy to be able to sweat in such a cold weather, which shows how crazy they just played.
After Shen Wan'er said that she wouldn't play anymore, some other people slowly felt a little tired and began to think about doing other games.
Shen Wan'er and Liu Chunhua didn't join because they were not interested, but went to Liu Chunhua's house to play.
Liu Chunhua's family has no one now, and the rest of the family definitely doesn't know where to go to the door, Shen Wan'er entered Liu Chunhua's room, Liu Chunhua's room is very simple, except for a few necessary furniture, there are flowers in the vase on the table.
At this time, the flowers are only plum, and the red ones are particularly beautiful.
"You plum blossom is so beautiful."
Liu Chunhua glanced at it and smiled, "This is where my eldest brother picked it up when he went out, but I think it's a little less, and I want to pick a little more, but it's a little far, so I gave up Peony Village, which is full of yellow plum blossoms, and there is no red one at all." ”
"No wonder, I've never seen it around here, but I don't know if this red plum tree is expensive, when can I buy a few to plant in the back of my yard."
Shen Wan'er likes flowers very much, no matter what kind of flowers they are, especially when she looks at the flowers, her mood will improve.
Soon it will be spring, but you can collect some flower seeds everywhere, and plant some in the yard and plant some in the back of the house.
She also collected some flower seeds intermittently some time ago, but she didn't know if there was a moon season in this era, and if there were, she really wanted to buy some.
Liu Chunhua has a red and bright head rope tied on her head, and the head rope is also decorated with red berries, which looks very cute and playful.
She doesn't look very good, and her skin is a little rough, but she really looks good when she smiles, and her eyes are bright, which will make people feel good when they see her smile.
Liu Chunhua pulled Shen Wan'er and showed her her new embroidery.
"It's a pity that the very good silk thread is too expensive, so I can only buy this ordinary silk thread to embroider, and my hands are a little rough because of the work, and the good silk thread will only scratch."
Liu Chunhua likes embroidery, and the things embroidered in recent times are also quite good, getting better and better.
There are also handkerchiefs that are sold in the town, but this embroidered handkerchief is more time-consuming, and it can't be sold for much money, so Liu Chunhua will only make a little when she is free.
Now that it's winter, there's no work to do in the fields, and the housework at home can't be shared equally among a few people, so it takes a long time to do it, so there is more time to embroider.
The handkerchief that Shen Wan'er is using now is embroidered by Liu Chunhua.
"It's beautiful, your hands are really skillful, and the clothes you make are also beautiful."
Shen Wan'er glanced at Liu Chunhua's body, the clothes she was wearing today were made by Liu Chunhua herself, very beautiful, slightly different from the current new style, and the belt was widened.
Winter is already a little bloated, but with this wide belt, Liu Chunhua's waistline is immediately revealed, and she looks much slimmer.
"This is still the style you drew for me, I pondered for a while to make it, this morning my sister-in-law said that I look good, and she will make the same one again after a while."
Liu Chunhua was overjoyed, many people praised her for her beautiful clothes when she went out today, and she was naturally happy to be praised by others.
"By the way, I wanted to tell you one thing a few days ago, but there were other things I forgot at the time."
"What?"
"I remember that you have a lot of land at home, but there are also a lot of people, so if you only rely on the food produced in the field, it is still a little tight."
Liu Chunhua nodded, "Yes, there are quite a lot of people in my family, but it's okay, barely able to make ends meet, and there are not too many people in my family, you don't see some people, a lot of more than ten or twenty." ”
Shen Wan'er nodded very approvingly, most families will divide the brothers after their son grows up and the father dies, and the mother acquiesces most of the time and follows the first son.
If the father had lived longer, it would have been possible for several generations or dozens of people to live together.
There are two families in the village, which is a lot of people.
Shen Wan'er is more glad that now the population of this family is simple, although Shen Da and Shen Zhao'er have such and such shortcomings, they can still manage it.
"That's what I think, I'm going to open a restaurant in the city in the spring and summer, but I'm afraid I won't have enough land to grow in the seasoning."
