Chapter 340: Mountain Spring Village (4 more)
When Zhou Tian heard this, he frowned, but he didn't speak.
Gan Lin said again: "Sister Jinxiu also said that your father and mother took Zhou Li to a relative's house. ”
There was no wave on Zhou Tian's face, and he said lightly: "They should go to Shanquan Village." In the past few years, the only relatives who have come and gone are those in Shanquan Village. However, the Huang family may not necessarily keep them for a long time. ”
Gan Lin: "They won't stay long, will they?" After all, the crops in the field are about to be harvested, and there is so much farm work to do at home, so I have to go home if I can live for about ten days. ”
Zhou Tian hooked his lips and snorted coldly: "They still want to live for ten days?" At most, you can only stay for one day. ”
When Zhou Li was sick, the Huang family also went back to her parents' house to borrow money, except for her brother who quietly gave ten cents, everyone else cried poor and refused to borrow a penny.
Huang probably just remembered her brother's kindness of ten cents, and she didn't cut off contact with her mother's family in the past few years.
But last year, Huang's brother passed away, and Huang's sister-in-law was in charge there. That's a guy who picks the door and gets home.
Therefore, their family of three went back to live at their parents' house, and Zhou Tian guessed that maybe they couldn't live for a day, and it would be very good to have a coarse tea and light meal to entertain them!
……
Zhou Tian didn't guess wrong.
The old couple took Zhou Li to Shanquan Village, and cut half a catty of meat and took it with them.
When I got there, I was just in time to make lunch.
The Huang family is daughter-in-law Jiang is cooking, and when she saw Huang carrying half a catty of meat into the kitchen, she took it with a smile and said, "My sister-in-law will come back when she comes back, what kind of meat do you cut, it's too outward!" ”
Huang said: "It's rare for me to come back once, what is it like to come back empty-handed!" You cut the meat and fry it, so you can make up some oil and water for the family. ”
"It's still my sister-in-law who has a heart. Our family is poor, and life is hard! The man's family works in the fields every day, and they can't see a single meat for ten days and half a month, and they can't work hard. After Jiang complained, he looked at Huang and said, "Sister-in-law, you have a good complexion, you must have meat to eat at home for three days, right?" I heard that your daughter-in-law is the precious daughter of a big landowner's family, and with her, it will be difficult for your family to live a hard life. ”
Huang's is so bitter now, it's like soaking in Coptis water.
didn't answer Jiang's words, smiled reluctantly, and turned his head out of the kitchen.
After Huang left, Jiang carried the half catty of meat and pursed his lips, thinking that what his man said was right, his sister-in-law was really stingy. It's rare to go back to my mother's house, but I only cut half a catty of meat! Half a catty of meat is cut into a few slices, and after frying, one person and two pieces of meat can't be divided! What's the oil and water?
When all the people who worked came back, Jiang's meal was ready.
At the beginning of the meal, Jiang helped to serve porridge for everyone.
This porridge is boiled thinly, which is worse than Huang's usual boiling.
Jiang took the rice grains to the children and men in the family again, and when the three of them arrived at the Huang family, there was almost only rice soup in the bowl, and the rice grains were so small that they could be counted.
Father Zhou glanced at their bowls, and then looked at his own bowls, and his heart became angry.
At this time, Huang's sister-in-law Qin asked: "Little sister, it's almost the busy farming season now, is there anything wrong with your family of three coming to the house?" ”
The Huang family was hesitant, and it took a while to say what he meant.
As soon as Qin Shi heard this, his face fell, and as soon as he put the dishes and chopsticks down, he began to cry poorly.
This scene is very familiar to Huang, just like he touched a few years ago. It's just that her brother is gone, and this family is headed by her sister-in-law.
After this meal, Huang pulled Father Zhou and Zhou Li and left the Huang family.
Father Zhou said in a rough voice: "I said earlier that I should not come to Shanquan Village, how good it would be to go directly to Ganjia Village!" ”
