The dog girl did lead the dog with a trot rather than a walking speed, and she was still carrying a large bucket of sorghum flour in her hand, and it was still quite difficult to walk.

The two mothers and sons didn't stop with relief until they turned around and couldn't see Shen Shuang and Xu, but the dog who had been running with him almost fell on his heels, and asked breathlessly, "Mother, why are we running?" ”

The dog-girl poked her son's head angrily, "Why do you say?" Don't you run faster, that fat woman can eat you, do you believe it? ”

Dogan shook his head, "Sister Xiaoshan is not a wolf, how can she eat me?" ”

The dog's face was angry, she remembered the last time she went door-to-door to clarify the matter and felt ashamed, so far she felt that she couldn't raise her head when she met the people in the village, and she was laughed at when she saw the sky, and her face was lost, and she was complained by her daughter and husband, and she was even more angry when she heard her son's words, "What do you know? It was her last time, and I almost beat your father to death, you know? ”

Goudan scratched his head innocently, "I don't know, mother, dad never beats people." ”

The dog girl came up in one breath, "Say you're stupid, say you're stupid, hurry up and go home with sorghum flour, I'm going to make sorghum baba for your sister." ”

Goudan said aggrievedly: "Mother, didn't you say that you would make sorghum baba for me to eat?" ”

The dog girl rolled her eyes, and said angrily, "Eat and eat, you will know how to eat, your sister will marry the outsider when the time comes, you will be the brother-in-law of the outsider, can you still eat?" ”

After the dog girl left, Shen Shuang and Xu Shi worked together to grind the water chestnuts that had been cut into corn pieces, because they were chopped, so it was not effortless to grind at all.

Most of the water chestnuts in half a bucket need to be added while adding water at the same time, and the two mothers and daughters changed the grinding disc and pushed for half an hour to grind two buckets full of water chestnut slurry.

Fortunately, the big grinding plate is not far from Lao Shen's house, and it is not particularly difficult for the two mothers and daughters to carry two large buckets of water chestnut slurry back.

When they arrived home, Old Man Shen and Shen Musheng had just arrived home from the ground, and they wondered why no one was at home, so they saw Shen Shuang's mother and daughter carrying a bucket of things home.

Shen Zhuzi, who was washing his hands by the water tank, hurriedly went over to help, thinking that they were grinding beans, "Auntie, Xiaoshuang, what are you doing grinding beans?" ”

"Brother Zhuzi, this is water chestnut water, I plan to use it to wash powder and dry it."

Shen Zhuzi naturally didn't understand this, "Water chestnuts? What is it? ”

The old man Shen on the side found that this granddaughter was messing with new things again, and couldn't help but come over with a dry tobacco, but found a bucket of water slurry in vain, which looked quite good, "Xiaoshuang, what is water chestnut, don't say that you haven't heard of it, and I haven't heard of it, so which corner of the village did you look for?" ”

Shen Shuang naturally didn't say that it was dug over there in the swamp, but said vaguely, "It's the paddy field under the mountain, I and the small mountain stones have been dug up, and I don't know if it will grow any longer, this thing can be used to make pastries." ”

Hearing that the digging had been completed, Old Man Shen lost his interest, turned around and walked back to continue smoking.

Shen Musheng was chopping wood, Shen Zhuzi was going to fetch water, and after the old man Shen sat down, he asked Xu, "Old man, where is your mother?" And the second family, where did they go? Why didn't you see anyone? ”

"Dad, I didn't see my mother and second siblings when I got home, so I went out."

Shen Zhuzi, who was going to fetch water, soon found that several clothes poles in the yard were empty, and the pigweed back basket placed there was also empty, so he put down the bucket, "Uncle, hasn't my mother cut pigweed today?" ”

Xu subconsciously glanced at Old Man Shen, who frowned at her, she had no choice but to nod, "I didn't cut it, but just now I fed the pigs with the skin cut out of water chestnuts, and I still need some tender wild vegetables and pigweed to feed the chickens and pigs." ”

Shen Zhuzi didn't say anything else, just wanted to go and cut the pigweed with the back basket, but was stopped by the old man Shen, "Put down the pillar, your mother is to let you, your father and your milk spoil it, you don't have to do anything all day, even a basket of pigweed, she has to be lazy, if she doesn't cut the pigweed tonight, don't eat the rice, you go to your mother and Trini to come back, and then fetch water." ”

Shen Zhuzi had no choice, and knew that his mother had always liked to be lazy, so he had to put down the bucket and go to the village to find someone.

Shen Shuang was preparing to stir-fry and eat in the kitchen, and just heard her father tell Shen Zhuzi to find someone, she pouted disapprovingly, thinking that her second aunt really needed to be cured, otherwise she really thought that she didn't have to do anything.

It's just halfway through the stir-frying, and I heard her father's anxious voice outside, "Boss, go and invite Dr. Sun over, your mother is not feeling well, and she is having a fever at this time." ”

Xu Shi had already prepared the noodles to be eaten tonight, and was about to get out of the pot at this time, when she heard the voice, she paused and walked out, and Shen Shuang hurriedly followed to see what was going on.

In the yard, Old Man Shen just wanted to go outside to find Wan's back, originally thought that she was going to the door, who knew that when he entered the house and wanted to change his dirty clothes, he found that there was a person lying on the kang, who was his wife, and he looked groggy and couldn't wake up, and his body was still hot.

Shen Musheng was chopping wood, and when he heard this, he hurriedly dropped the axe, "Dad, what's the matter, what's wrong with my mother?" ”

Shen Shuang and Xu also hurriedly walked out, and saw that Old Man Shen looked anxious, "I don't know what's going on, I just went in to change out of dirty clothes, and found that your mother was lying on the kang and didn't know what was going on, and people are not awake at this time, don't say it, go and find Dr. Sun to take a look." ”

Shen Musheng didn't delay, "I'll go now", said and hurriedly ran out.

Shen Shuang and Xu naturally followed Old Man Shen into the house to see what was going on, and sure enough, they saw Wan Shi lying on the kang and falling asleep, and his face didn't look very good.

Shen Shuang saw her situation and knew that she had been asleep for a long time, no wonder she was busy in the yard all afternoon, and she didn't come out to see the movement so big, it turned out that she was unconscious.

Shen Shuang remembered that her grandmother was kicked in the heart by the shopkeeper of Manfulou yesterday, so she looked at her father and her mother, "Master, did your grandmother tell you that she was uncomfortable today?" ”

When the old man Shen heard this, he quickly remembered that his wife had mentioned such a thing in the morning, and said that she didn't sleep comfortably at night, but her face didn't change much at that time, and he didn't pay much attention to it, but now when he heard Shen Shuang ask, he understood, and nodded hurriedly, "Yes, she said that she didn't sleep comfortably last night, and said that her heart was a little stuffy, but in the morning, she was fine, why did she fall asleep?" ”

Old man Shen's tone was a little solemn, after all, he was old, and he was afraid that something would happen.

Xu Shi was also anxious, "Dad, don't worry, maybe my mother is just too tired these days." ”

Old Man Shen nodded, and then walked out and let Xu look at Wan.

Shen Shuang went to the kitchen to extinguish the charcoal fire in the stove, and it was estimated that he couldn't take care of eating at this time.

As soon as the charcoal fire was extinguished, she saw the second aunt Xiao Wan and Shen Cuini following Shen Zhuzi into the house with an unhappy face, Shen Cuini was still complaining, "Brother, can you not go to Li Xiuniang to find me in the future?" You have a straight face all day long, who is not afraid of you? ”

"You kid, how did you talk to your brother?"

Of course, Xiao Wanshi was also called back by her own son with a straight face, but one yard is one yard, although she doesn't like her son to treat her like this, but her daughter said that she is a baby son, and she is not happy, so she will inevitably be partial.

Shen Cuini pursed her lips, knowing that her mother said that she loved her, but she still loved her brother in her heart, after all, what she talked about all day long was that her brother had the opportunity to support her for a lifetime, and she didn't know if she would come back every year to see her mother in the future.

As soon as the three of them entered the courtyard gate, they saw Shen Shuang, Xiao Wanshi rolled his eyes, and directly handed the clothes with the wooden basin to Shen Cuini, and said in a weird manner, "Why don't you go and dry the clothes?" ”

Shen Cuini's face was reluctant, "Mother, why don't you let my brother hang it?" ”

Xiao Wan deliberately said loudly, "What's your brother?" Are you a waste? I don't know if our family doesn't work now, we don't have to eat? Your mother and I still have to mow pigweed, now someone has learned to sue, relying on their own ability, what is this called? Bullying people. ”

Shen Shuang didn't know that Xiao Wan's words were for herself, so she didn't bother to pay attention to her yin and yang weird appearance, and saw her grandfather coming out of the hall with his hands behind his back, his face was so black, Shen Shuang almost didn't laugh, knowing that he must have heard Xiao Wan's words, so he deliberately gave Xiao Wan's hint, "Master."

Hearing Shen Shuang's words, the expressions on the faces of Xiao Wan and Shen Cuini immediately changed, the former immediately ran to pick up the sickle and the back basket, while Shen Cuini hurriedly went over to dry with a wooden basin of clothes, and didn't dare to say anything.

Old man Shen had a dark face, but he didn't intend to let her go, his tone was unprecedentedly harsh, he also knew that his wife was partial to these two daughters-in-law, after all, it was from her mother's side, Old Man Shen had always turned a blind eye, but now the situation is different, I don't know why he feels dazzling every time he looks at her playing tricks and not working.

"Second family, why are you dissatisfied with my arrangement now? I asked the pillar to find you back, and you can say anything you are not satisfied with. ”

Xiao Wan was frightened, to say that she was most afraid of this father-in-law in the family, although he usually didn't take care of things, but she also knew that in major matters, her mother-in-law Wan and her own man still listened to him.

She swallowed her saliva and hurriedly waved her hand, "Dad, no, I'm not dissatisfied, I'm joking with Xiaoshuang, Xiaoshuang, right?" ”

Shen Shuang stood aside and pretended not to hear, she didn't do this kind of thing, and besides, her father was not a fool.

Seeing that Shen Shuang didn't care about herself, Xiao Wanshi hurriedly wiped her sweat, Shen Zhuzi had already gone to fetch water, and Shen Cuini pricked up her ears to eavesdrop while drying her clothes, and she was also a little scared in her heart.

Old man Shen snorted coldly, "No opinion? Then what are you talking about these weird words? The old Shen family can't treat you badly? All these years you know how to go out and gossip? Wash your clothes and wash them until now, and you still have to ask the pillar to call you back, are you still reasonable? Your sister-in-law went to the field in the morning to help pull weeds, and also went to the mountains to chop firewood and dig wild vegetables. is also the daughter-in-law of the old Shen family, what the old family will do in the future, you will also do it, you will take turns to work. ”
