Chapter 149: Xiao Wan's Clan was forced to cut pigweed in the dark
Old man Shen's words were a thunderbolt to Xiao Wan's family, so frightened that her legs were so weak that she almost didn't fall to the ground, and Shen Shuang's face was pale, visible to the naked eye.
Then I heard her almost kneeling down to her grandfather to speak, "Dad, this, this can't be done." ”
Old man Shen's face turned pale, he didn't expect her to dare to question her decision, she almost felt that she was the opposite, "Why can't it, now that I, an old man, don't have the ability to let you do some work?" I'm not dead yet, the old Shen family is not divided, and I'm still the old man who is in charge. ”
Xiao Wanshi was scared half to death, where did she dare to question him, she could only pretend to be pitiful weakly, "Dad, you also know that my health has not been very good since I gave birth to a stone, and my sister-in-law is used to cooking and chopping wood at home, and I am not good at robbing my sister-in-law's work." ”
Xiao Wan's heart is very anxious, and everything she thinks in her heart is written on her face, she doesn't want to get up before dawn to cook, and now she has to cut pigweed every day She already feels very ashamed, and every time she has to hide from the long-tongued woman in the village.
thought that if she had to take turns with the Xu family in the future, and she would also have to dig wild vegetables and collect firewood in the mountains, then she wouldn't be able to raise her head and be a person in Xishan Village, and she wouldn't have the face to go back to her mother's house!
So even if she was very afraid of Old Man Shen's majesty, she still wanted to force herself to fight for reason.
Shen Shuang listened on the sidelines, naturally she didn't intend to let her escape such a catastrophe, but she didn't expect her father to be so wise this time, and directly gave Xiao Wan's a head start, so she hurriedly answered, "Second aunt, you are wrong about this, you also know my mother, and you will definitely not have any opinions on you second aunt." Besides, they are all a family, and it is not good to let the second aunt be idle all day, it is better to move more muscles and bones, otherwise the hands and feet will degenerate, and people can not walk. ”
Xiao Wanshi: "...... What? ”
Old man Shen nodded in agreement as he listened to Shen Shuang's words, "Since this is the case, it will be arranged like this in the future." There is a lot of work at home, how to arrange it, Xiaoshuang, you help your mother and your second aunt to discuss. ”
"Hey, master, I know, I will definitely clarify the division of labor between my mother and the second aunt."
Xiao Wanshi: "...... Daddy, I'm ......."
Old man Shen turned around and entered the house, not bothering to look at her.
In fact, I will be so angry today, mainly because Wan is sick and in bed, but Xiao Wan, who is the daughter-in-law of people, still runs outside to chat, and a lot of things have not been done at home, so Old Man Shen feels that it is not a way to go on like this, and if he turns a blind eye again, he may come out of the basket in the future.
This time is well arranged for the future, and no one will dare to say that he Shen Laifu is biased in the future, and the boss will not say that he is not in the future, in fact, he has always had such a plan, and he said it at this time, but it was just taking this opportunity.
Shen Shuang didn't know her father's plan, but her heart was very comfortable, and she felt very happy when fairness first appeared.
Shen Shuang stood here, and softly reminded Xiao Wan, who was already sitting on the ground and felt that there was no life and no hope for the future, "Second aunt, you better go and cut the pigweed, seeing that it is not too early, the pigs and chickens at home are still waiting for you to feed." ”
Although the person who fights pigweed these days has become Xiao Wan's, but her mother has always helped feed the chickens and pigs, she just cuts a basket of pigweed, which is not a job at all, but now it is good, as long as she divides the work well, her mother can be easier in the future.
Xiao Wan couldn't help it, glared at Shen Shuang viciously, there was no one in this courtyard, she didn't care about anything else, she lowered her voice and cursed her, "You dead girl, you wait for me, you dare to treat me like this, see if I find a chance not to clean you up." ”
Saying that, Xiao Wanshi went out with a sickle on his back, and of course, Shen Cuini, who had just dried her clothes over there, was also pulled out by her to cut pigweed.
Shen Cuini didn't dare to disobey, but her face was still bitter and pitiful, wanting to make Xiao Wan's heart soft, "Mother, I don't want to cut pigweed, if my hand becomes rough, how can I pinch the embroidery needle in the future?" ”
Xiao Wan's deaf ears, she was thinking about how to clean up Shen Shuang, and now she was lazy to find someone to gossip, so naturally she also heard the gossip coming out of Wang's mouth.
It's just that what makes Xiao Wan's family feel pity is that the gossip about Shen Shuang and Xiao Orion hanging out in the town together has not spread, and I don't know why, Zheng and Zhao have several villagers who took Old Man Li's ox cart yesterday to speak for Shen Shuang.
She was still waiting to go home at night to taunt Shen Shuang, but who knew that in the end, everyone scolded the Wang family for being unkind, and no one said that Xiao Orion and Shen Shuang were inappropriate.
It's naturally not good for her, who is the second aunt, to take the initiative to mention it, otherwise, if it is spread out and it is found that it was her who started it, not to mention Old Man Shen and Wan Shi at that time, Xiao Wan knows that her man Shen Tusheng will not let him go.
Xiao Wan took Shen Cuini, who was reluctant, out to cut pigweed to find wild vegetables to feed the chickens, and the stone and the hill also came back from outside, and the two boys didn't know where to run for a while, and they also touched a lot of wild fruits.
Shen Shuang was not interested in these sour and astringent mountain fruits at first, but she couldn't bear that there were no snacks, no ice cream, no milk tea and the like in this place, not to mention other fruits.
The two little guys learned that Wan was sick, and they also followed Shen Shuang in to see, they didn't dare to come out, they squatted obediently and waited, and the old man Shen also sat aside and didn't speak.
Shen Musheng quickly invited Dr. Sun over to check Wan's pulse, "Doctor Sun, what's going on with my wife?" She was fine in the morning, but when I came back from the field, I found her lying on the kang. ”
Shen Shuang also opened her mouth to explain Wan's situation, including the incident where she was kicked to the heart by the shopkeeper of Manfulou yesterday.
Doctor Sun nodded, "In this way, it probably makes sense, Xiaoshan's grandmother's condition is still relatively serious, and it is estimated that she will have a high fever after internal injuries." I'll go back to the medicine store to prescribe some medicine first, you boil it for her to drink, cook some light white porridge for her to drink, don't go down to the kang if you have nothing to do in the next two days, and take care of your injuries. ”
It happened that Shen Zhuzi came back from carrying water, so he followed Dr. Sun back to his medicine house to get medicine.
After such a toss, it was already dark, and the family was silent during dinner, after all, Wan Shi had not woken up at this time, and everyone was also very worried, and the stone and the hill were sitting in a regular manner and did not dare to speak.
Shen Tusheng came back and found that something was not quite right at home, and he didn't see his own child's mother, so he took the dishes and chopsticks and sat down, "Dad? What about the mother? Pillar, why didn't your mother and your sister eat? ”
Old man Shen coughed heavily, everyone looked at him, Old man Shen said with a tiger face, "Your daughter-in-law went to cut pigweed, your mother was sick for a day, she didn't see anyone all day, and the washed clothes came back in the evening. ”
Shen Tusheng naturally didn't dare to say a word, of course, his focus was on his mother's illness, "Dad, what's the matter?" Why is my mother sick? ”
Shen Musheng sighed and explained the situation, Shen Tusheng didn't care about eating, and hurriedly went in to see Wan's.
After dinner, it was completely dark, and the stones, Xiaoshan, and Shen Zhuzi were all helping to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, while Shen Shuang was in charge of washing the dishes, and Xu was boiling medicine for Wan's.
At this time, at the foot of the mountain, it was dark everywhere, Shen Cuini was scared to death, she no longer folded wild vegetables, but followed closely behind Xiao Wan, who was cutting pigweed, "Mother, I'm so hungry, let's go home, it's so dark here, I heard Xiaoyun say that there will be wolves at the foot of the mountain here, and I don't know if it's not, let's go quickly, don't cut it." ”
When Xiao Wanshi walked to the foot of the mountain, the sky had begun to darken, Xiao Wanshi Rao was speeding up the action, but before cutting the half-back basket of pigweed, it was completely dark, and she also understood what the girl said, hearing the sound from the distant mountain, she was also afraid, and she couldn't care about anything else, so she hurriedly rushed home with the half-back basket of pigweed.
The Shen family was brightly lit at this time, and after Xu poured medicine on Wan's, her high fever slowly subsided, and Shen Shuang also breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to filter the water chestnut slurry in the kitchen with her mother.
The old Shen family has a cloth bag that is often used to grind potato flour or sorghum flour, and Xu hangs a shelf on the roof beam of the kitchen, on which there is a large cloth bag that can be filtered, and the bottom is a wooden basin containing the filtered slurry.
The two mothers and daughters were busy filtering water chestnut powder, and there was a sound of a little wolf cub howling in the yard, and now it seemed to act as a gatekeeper 'wolf', of course, the howling at this time was deliberately to scare Xiao Wan and Shen Cuini.
Xiao Wan and Shen Cuini who came home were running, and the village was dark everywhere at night, plus the wind was particularly strong tonight, no one was walking outside at all, listening to the whining wind, Shen Cuini was already scared and crying on the way back.
At this time, she was scared by the little wolf cub again, she almost fainted, there was a lot of trouble in the yard, and the old Shen family caught Xiao Wan's and scolded her, Shen Shuang heard it clearly, her second uncle was also scolding Xiao Wan's, and even Shen Cuini was also scolded.
At this time, Shen Zhuzi walked into the kitchen and looked at Shen Shuang and Xu Shidao, who were busy with their work, "Uncle Niang, Xiaoshuang, I'll serve dinner to my mother and Trini." ”
Xu Shi hurriedly got up to help, "Here, I'll heat the meal with hot water, you can quickly bring it to your mother and Trini, don't starve them." ”
Shen Zhuzi bowed his head, thanked Xu, and walked out with the food.
Shen Shuang looked at it and felt that the blessing of her second aunt Xiao Wan should be her cousin Shen Zhuzi, of course, the stone kid is also good, although he knew what to eat before, but now it is really not bad, he never shouts tired when he works with her, but fortunately, he has not been raised.
Time passed little by little, there was no movement outside the yard, Shen Shuang looked at her mother filtering the slurry, and felt a little sleepy, but fortunately, the two large buckets of water chestnut slurry had been filtered, and called her father to come over and bring the two large pots of filtered slurry to the yard, and Shen Shuang also went to wash and rest.
She was busy all day, and she was quite tired, and when she heard that there was no movement in the hall, she thought that her milk's injury should not be a big problem.
However, before Shen Shuang fell asleep, she suddenly remembered that she seemed to have forgotten one thing today: Little Orion went to the Miaoshou Rejuvenation Medical Center for acupuncture treatment today!
