Chapter 130: Wang's Suspicions
After accepting Village Chief Liu's apology, the little Orion didn't stay long, turned around and carried his things and prepared to go home.
He didn't rush to help catch the dead fish, his body had not fully recovered, although catching the dead fish was actually not a heavy job for him, but he didn't want to have too much contact with the people in the village, after all, others didn't like him, and the little hunter was of course self-aware.
Shen Musheng watched him go back with a small basket on his back, and hurriedly threw away the net bag in his hand to chase after him, also afraid that he would think too much in his heart, so he couldn't help but say a few more words, "Ah Shu, don't think too much about today's affairs, the main thing is that Li Gou will only wronged you if he wants to get rid of the crime, and everyone has no ill will towards you." ”
The little hunter naturally understood Shen Musheng's words, and the people in the village really didn't have any ill will towards him, they were just afraid of him.
If you want to talk about malice or something, he doesn't care much, and he doesn't care much about other people's eyes.
He nodded at Shen Musheng to show that he understood, and then turned back, he was going to tidy up a piece of land by the stream in front of the house today and plant the seeds that Shen Shuang gave him, he was quite busy, and he didn't want to delay time and effort.
Shen Musheng looked at the back of the little hunter and sighed, but he couldn't help but feel moved when he remembered that his own daughter helped him speak today.
In fact, although Xiao Orion has no uncles and brothers to help, he is a lonely household in the village, and he is still a mute, but he is a young man who is strong and capable, and he can hunt and feed his family.
Shen Musheng thought about it, so he made up his mind to mention this matter to the child's mother tonight, seeing that his daughter was fifteen, although she was not by their side since she was a child, they also wanted to keep her for a few more years, but the matter of kissing can actually be put on the agenda.
Shen Musheng and the Xu family husband and wife are so clever that they plan family affairs for their daughters in their hearts, but one is to take a fancy to the little hunter, and the other is to reject the little hunter.
The Shen family did not farm for two days, and they were soon targeted, and the person who targeted them was still the brother and daughter-in-law of the old man Shen, and the concubine of the Wan family was also the rival Wang.
In the afternoon, Xishan Village is very quiet, this time is not yet the time of spring ploughing, the women in the village are still free, there are many busy and idle people gathered in the big open space in the center of the village to gossip, originally everyone said that Li Gouyu was twisted to the yamen today, I don't know how to talk about the Shen family, Wang heard the Shen family and pricked up his ears to listen to the situation.
"I saw the old man Shen and the Wan family going to the mountains with their grandchildren and daughters-in-law today, and I don't know what treasures they are looking for."
Wang interjected, very unimpressed, "What treasures can there be on the mountain?" I think it must have been Wan's withholding of his son's grain and forcing them to go to the mountains to dig wild vegetables. ”
"I don't think so, I saw them go to the peach forest yesterday, the peach forest is full of weeds, could it be that they are going to pick peach blossoms to make peach blossom cakes?"
A few women, you and I were talking, and they quickly changed the topic, but Wang thought about it, and felt that something was wrong with this matter.
The two have been concubines for decades, and they have quarreled for decades, and no one can look at anyone well, but Wang thinks that he knows Wan's quite well, even if she picks again, she will not starve herself, since she can go to the mountains, it should not be to dig wild vegetables, wild vegetables are all over the mountains, and there is no need for the whole family to go out.
Thinking like this, the Wang family also had more eyes, so they went to the peach forest they said alone, found a place to sit down, and waited for the Shen family to come down while eating melon seeds.
Although the peach forest on this hillside is large, the Shen family has been busy for two days, and they have also picked the peach gum that is very conspicuous on the trunk, and the family has dozens of baskets of peach gum together, not counting the two small ones picked by stones and hills.
She and Old Man Shen deliberately found a path that no one walked to leave the hillside, but they didn't run into the Wang family, but Shen Shuang didn't think about it so much, but ran into the Wang family who was squatting.
Today, while picking peach gum, Shen Shuang also found a lot of alfalfa grass on the hillside.
Originally, she really wanted to get some back to make green manure, but in the face of that large patch of vigorous alfalfa grass, she had a hard time, and she didn't know how to transplant it at all, and finally her mother learned that she wanted to make green manure, so she used a small hoe with a small hoe and the turf to dig some and let her go back and try it.
Shen Shuang felt that this was more troublesome, and it was still heavy to carry, so she could only give up this method again, and she wondered if she could find some agricultural books similar to the complete book of agricultural politics to see, maybe it would be beneficial for her to learn to grow these crops.
Shen Shuang had been pondering about this matter for a long time, and before the three mothers and sons came down the mountain, the Wang family, who had been squatting for a lot, came out, but it didn't startle the three of them.
"Yo, isn't this the eldest daughter-in-law? What are you doing up the mountain? This back looks pretty heavy. ”
Shen Musheng went to chop wood not long after he went up the mountain, and he was still busy on the mountain at this time, Xu wanted to go home early to cook and come back early, but he didn't expect to meet Wang.
Xu's is quite worried about Wang's, you must know that when Wang's hasn't come to live in the town, he will almost have a small quarrel with Wan's for three days, a big quarrel for five days, and a fight for half a month, the person she listens to her mother-in-law scold the most at home is Wang, but in the end, it is the second aunt of her own man, and she also pulled out a smile at this time, "Second aunt." ”
Shen Shuang frowned slightly, seeing this Wang snort from his nose, he said casually while munching on melon seeds, "Eldest daughter-in-law, I didn't say you, you are crushed to death by your mother every day, look at your temperament, why do you see me like a tiger?" And you, the fat girl and the youngest son, are instructed to work all day long, and you are not the old cow, you say you are really willing? ”
When Shen Shuang heard this, he knew that the Wang clan was trying to sow discord, but anyone with a brain knew that it was impossible to succeed.
Shen Shuang looked a little speechless, Xiaoshan subconsciously looked at her, she gave this kid a look, and the two of them stood obediently behind her mother, silent.
Xu didn't know what to say when he heard this, so he could only smile, "Second aunt, where are you going?" ”
Wang took a few steps forward to look at the basket on Xu's back, and said while flipping, "I'm not waiting for you yet, I'll see what treasures you have picked up on the mountain, I heard that your family will go to the peach forest when they see the sky, what treasures are there in the peach forest, you have to tell the second aunt." ”
"Second aunt, that is, I went to pick some flowers to make cakes, and I also dug up some wild vegetables, nothing."
After Shen Shuang and Xu picked the peach gum, they also found a lot of wild vegetables nearby, so Wang could only see the fern roots and gray cabbage when they turned over and over, and the bottom was some peach blossoms that Shen Shuang planned to pick back to make flower cakes.
Wang looked down on these wild vegetables growing all over the ground, and immediately ridiculed again, "This thing feeds chickens and pigs, and those animals don't eat it, old family, your family eats these all day long?" I guess I haven't smelled meat in a few days, right? ”
Shen Shuang didn't make a sound, Wang didn't dare to step forward to turn over the back basket of her expressionless person when she saw her like this, but the short hill on the side was different, she bent down to turn it over, and didn't turn it over anything else, as soon as she took away a few big leaves on the back basket, she reached out and grabbed it, but she turned out the little wolf cub who was bent over and slept in the back basket.
The little thing was woken up and grinned directly at her, Wang was startled, "Ah...... Dog. ”
Wang still had a lot of melon seeds in her hands, she was so frightened that she threw the melon seeds directly into the sky, turned around and ran, and in the blink of an eye, the person ran away without a shadow, and the three mothers and sons looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
Xu patted his heart, in fact, he had some palpitations, if he was really turned over by Wang's peach gum, her mother-in-law would definitely have to settle accounts with her.
There are still a lot of Xinyi flowers growing on the hillside here, and Shen Shuang is still holding a lot of Xinyi flowers in his hands, thinking about frying tea seeds to eat for a while.
On the other side, the Wang family, who ran away, was a little depressed, but she felt that the old Shen family must have something unsightly.
In fact, she has been back to Xishan Village for some days, and her son has a chance to give her money to spend, and she is more willing to go back to the village to guard the old house by herself, and she is not very happy to go to the town to serve her daughter-in-law.
Wang's daughter-in-law, Niu Shiyuan, is also a capable person, and is very good at giving birth to children, and in a few years after marrying, she gave birth to two grandsons and three granddaughters to the Shen family, and the business of the carpenter shop is getting better and better, but this Niu family is becoming more and more lazy, and has very opinions about Wang's lying in the courtyard of the town all day long, and always managing their family.
Because of this incident, the two mothers-in-law and daughter-in-law actually quarreled many times, and the Wang family returned to Xishan Village in a fit of anger, of course, in the eyes of outsiders, her statement was to stay in the town and no one to talk about family life before returning to the village.
She talked to some good mothers-in-law in the village all day long, and the Wang family's life was even more comfortable, but at the same time, she was comfortable and often inquired about the family affairs of the Shen family's eldest brother and sister-in-law, and every time she heard about the Shen family, she had to say a few cool words.
When the mother and the girl arrived home, Wan and Old Man Shen had already arrived home, but Xiao Wan and they hadn't gone home yet.
After arriving home, she put down the peach gum, Shen Shuang and Xiaoshan helped her mother wash the gray cabbage and fern roots that she had picked back, and then took a few bags of vegetable seeds and led Xiaoshan and Baibai to the vegetable garden.
Xiaoshan is responsible for pulling the grass, the little wolf cub also helps bite the grass roots, and uses its small body to help push off the grass, Shen Shuang takes the hoe and hoes the ground slowly, and from time to time glances at the two people who cooperate together, they both feel a little funny.
After the Li Gou's leftovers, she knew that the little wolf cub she inadvertently picked up should be human, maybe she could understand human words, otherwise she wouldn't have helped clean up the Li Gou's leftovers, and now she even helped tidy up the vegetable garden, which should not be something that ordinary wolves can do.
The onions and carrots that Shen Shuang had planted before had grown into small crops, and her mother also helped transplant them to the ground on the side, and now she hoeed a row of small ditches, and sprinkled peppers and sweet corn seeds in two fields.
She didn't know if the pepper was green or green, but she was happy to be able to eat it in the future.
As for sweet corn, she is sown a large piece of land, she has seen the corn planted on the hillside in the village before, all are waxy corn, Shen Shuang actually doesn't like it very much, she prefers sweet corn that can be used to make soup and stir-fry vegetables, if it can be planted in a large area at that time, maybe it will be better.
