Chapter 6 I want to get her off the table
It was getting late, because it was not the busy season for farming, and there was not much work in the fields, and the men of the Shen family all carried hoes home when the sun was setting in the west.
In addition to the old Shen Tou Shen Laifu, Shen Shuang's father Shen Musheng, there is also the main force of the Shen family's labor force, the son of the Erfang Xiaowan family.
When the three men walked into the yard, Shen Shuang and Xiaoshan were sitting by the well washing the wild vegetables that Xu picked back today, seeing this scene, several men, you look at me, I look at you, and they were all stunned at the door.
When Xiaoshan heard the voice, he turned his head to look, and when he saw his father coming back, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly reached out to pull Shen Shuang's hand, and pointed to Shen Musheng over there, and smiled.
In fact, Shen Shuang had noticed a few people entering the door a long time ago, but she didn't know how to say hello, so she pretended not to see it, and now, she could only get up from the stool with difficulty, looked at the stunned three people, and greeted people normally, "Master, father, Brother Zhuzi, you are back." ”
After speaking, she continued to wash the vegetables, regardless of how the few people who looked at each other stared at her.
If you want to say that 'Shen Shuang' was sent back by Lord Zhang yesterday and hanged himself at home, today it was not only spread all over Xishan Village, but it is estimated that it was also spread as a joke to the Dongbian Village next door, and then look at it now, as if he was nothing.
Shen Zhuzi was the calmest and the first to react, took three hoes and put them away and went into the house, while Old Man Shen and his eldest son also glanced at each other, obviously relieved.
The two of them heard that she woke up when they were working in the fields today, and they were worried that she would make a fuss, but they didn't think that she was still helping with the work.
Shen Musheng is a wooden farmer, worried about the adopted daughter who has always been obedient and hardworking at home, and now he is even more distressed that his biological daughter who may not be able to accept the poor life of the peasant family when he comes home, but he is relieved at the moment, and when he reacts, he squats down to help Shen Shuang wash vegetables.
"Xiaoshuang, you're just sick, go into the room and have a good rest, come on, dad."
Shen Shuang's hand paused, raised his face and squeezed out a smile, "Dad, I'm fine." If you're tired of the day, go and rest for a while, and the meal will be ready soon. ”
Seeing this, Shen Musheng couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he didn't expect this new daughter to be so caring, and he was at a loss for a while, so he could only say yes again and again.
house.
As soon as Old Man Shen entered the house, he squatted on the ground with a dry cigarette and smoked, and at the same time talked to Wan Shi who was sitting on the kang, "Forsythia is indeed a pity, but I think Xiaoshuang is okay." ”
Wan Shi was making clothes on the kang, and when she heard this, she suddenly stopped her movements, she thought of Shen Shuang, who was like a big fat man, frowned in disgust, and bombarded Old Man Shen like a cannon in her mouth.
"What do you say she's doing? Shameful thing, even dare to hang himself with a rope, now I don't know how ugly the words in the village are, and I don't know how bad it is, and I don't know how much our old Shen family doesn't want to see her, so she wants to die. ”
Old man Shen seemed to be accustomed to Wan's speaking style, and waited patiently for her to finish speaking, and only spoke in a muffled voice for a while, with a sense of embarrassment, "It is normal for the child to be sent back and not accept it for a while." I see that she is helping her mother with her work, and I think she is also sensible. ”
Wan's face was disdainful, and his tone was very angry, "What can you do with a body of fat?" If it was forsythia, I would have done all the work. It's all useless things, if you want me to say that the Xu family is a mourning star, it will cause our old Shen family to be unlucky. ”
Speaking of the unpleasant eldest daughter-in-law, Wan Shi began to count down his daughter-in-law in front of the old man again, talking about going to the town tomorrow to see his daughter to see the third son, talking and talking, he didn't even care about clothes, and hurriedly got down from the kang, took out the key hanging around his neck to open the cabinet in the house, and packed up the things he wanted to take for the two brothers and sisters who lived in the town.
Before dinner, Shen Tusheng, who went to work in the town, had to play outside for a day, and the second room Cui Ni also went home to wait for food, and the Shen family sat around a long table, but today there was a slightly larger Shen Shuang, which seemed a little crowded.
Wan Shi looked at Shen Shuang who was sitting opposite, frowned in disgust, and Xiao Wan, who received this information, hurriedly spoke, "Sister-in-law, you see why there are so many people eating in our family all the time, Xiao Shuang sat up, you see, our father and mother are all crowded to the point where there is no place to sit and eat." ”
As soon as these words came out, all the people sitting at the table looked at the big fat man Shen Shuang.
The person who was paid attention to was used to it, although these eyes were not the same, but she also accepted it all, and there was no embarrassment, even if she had understood the meaning of Xiao Wan's words, she pretended to be stupid and didn't plan to get up.
Just kidding, you want to kick her off the table when you say such a sentence? Why?
However, Shen Shuang didn't move, but Xu, who had just sat down, reacted immediately, stood up tremblingly, stretched out his hand to pull up the hungry hill, glanced at the Wan clan with a straight face and the frowning old man Shen, and said in a low voice, "Dad, mother, I'll take Xiaoshan to the kitchen to eat." ”
