Chapter 89: The Long-Tongued Woman
Su Wan also nodded on the side, so it seems that Feng Jing's purchase is still worth it.
After the rooster swallowed the wine, Feng Jing also blindfolded the chicken, gently laid it flat on the ground, and picked up a stick on the side without covering his eyes, and drew a line vertically in front of the chicken's head.
When he let go of his hand, the rooster's head was staring straight ahead of the line, and it didn't move.
Su Wu suddenly remembered the popular science program she had watched before, and it seemed that she had said that animal hypnosis was triggering the state of suspended animation of animals, she watched a novelty at the time, and she didn't explore it carefully, she didn't expect that an ancient person in Feng Jing would also discover this.
Su Zhen thought that the rooster was motionless because he was drunk, so he went to Ah Xiu's side to peel melon seeds.
Feng Jing took the machete, and his clothes were ready to go out, "There is water in the stove, I'm afraid I won't be able to use the stove to cook tonight, I'll make a fire in a while, and set up a rack outside here to stir-fry and cook." ”
"The smoke is too big to set up a shelf in the yard, it will drill into the house, you don't have to worry about the kitchen, I can dry it in a while."
"How?"
Su Yu snatched the machete in Feng Jing's hand and walked outside the courtyard, turning around and showing a confident smile, "Mountain people have their own clever plans. ”
She's not going to go around saying she has a water ability.
"Wash the dishes, I'll be back in a moment."
Su Wu left the courtyard, she still remembered that when she went to see the land, she walked a little further up the slope to the woods.
It was too easy to chop branches, so Su Wu cut two large bundles of wood and tied them with ropes, and made a simple back frame, put the two bundles of firewood on them, and carried them home.
The people in the village showed surprised expressions when they saw that a girl was carrying more firewood than a man, "This new girl from the Su family is really good at farm work, and she is more powerful than many men." ”
One of the eldest ladies showed an appreciative look, "Yes, it would be nice if we could marry her into the family as a daughter-in-law, wouldn't marrying her have one more man's labor, then we old people would be able to relax." ”
A woman who looks like a big daughter-in-law hugged the child and said disgustedly, "Hey, it's still not good, her conditions are too poor, although she has a lot of strength, but her family has too many oil bottles, no father, only a fool who can't do anything and needs her to take care of her, two young brothers and sisters, even if she can be called to work as two men, she can't afford to raise that group of oil bottles." ”
"It's a shame."
"However, I see that her family is not short of silver, I went to the village chief's house just now to inquire, today she bought ten chickens, six ducks, and 60 catties of grain at the village chief's house, and ordered fresh vegetables for half a month, which is really generous."
The woman holding the child sighed, "Generous? I think it's a loser, which of you can afford to marry her and afford her habit of spending money lavishly? ”
"I can't say that, their family has nothing, it is necessary to buy some grain and vegetables, and she bought two acres of land, and in a few days she should be busy planting, and the things in the field have sprouted, and the harvest will be much better in the future, and the hens and ducks she bought can lay eggs, and hatch chicks and ducklings in the future, and their family life will not be bad."
"Buy grain and vegetables? Buy some coarse noodles and make some steamed buns and eat steamed buns, which of us doesn't live like this, she wants to eat rice, I'm afraid that our village will be able to do this with the village chief's family and Xiucai's family, and, I just went over to see it, tonight her family is going to kill chickens to eat, don't think too much of her, people buy chickens to eat, not to buy chickens to lay eggs, eggs to lay chickens. ”
After taking a good look at Su Wu's mother-in-law, the woman holding the child touched the child in her arms again, and coaxed softly, "When my little treasure grows up, I must not marry this kind of woman and enter the door, good." ”
……
Su Wan glanced at the women who gathered to discuss her from a distance, and she was very helpless, what happened to her shopping, and she didn't spend a penny on them, and she was low-key enough, these people were still chirping.
They don't look down on her, they think her conditions are not good, and she doesn't like the unmarried men in their family, when the time comes, even if she wants to find a man, she will find a son-in-law, at least she has to go to the town to find someone with a little knowledge, so that they can have a common topic.
I don't want to, it's too far away, my mother and relatives are not in a hurry to urge her to marry, why are you so anxious after listening to the gossip of this group of women? She used to be a gold leftover fighter, and if she wanted to find a man, she would rather lack than promiscuous!
After returning to the yard, she found that Feng Jing had washed out the vegetables and prepared some ingredients, just waiting for her to take care of the stove.
Su Wu put the firewood on the courtyard dam, took a thicker wooden stick, took off the horse lantern, there was still some oil left in it, and carefully poured it on the wooden stick.
Feng Jing took out the fire fold and helped Su Wu light it, "Are you going to use this to dry the water in the stove?" ”
"Yes." That's all I can say to the outside world.
"I'm afraid it will take a long time to dry out."
"No, it won't."
Holding a burning wooden stick, she walked into the kitchen, and Su Wan stepped on the wet mud to the stove and put the torch in it.
No one could see that the water had completely disappeared from the stove the moment Su Wu put the torch in.
She pretended to hold this position for a few minutes, and then simply threw the torch in the stove.
Then I shoveled the water swept up on the floor a few times, and there was a ditch outside the kitchen, so I poured the water from the shovel into it and let the dirty water flow down the gutter.
The water in the stove can be cleaned at once, and the water on the ground, she can only make it look wet, but she doesn't dare to make it completely dry.
She took some of the firewood from the outside and put it into the kitchen, and the moisture in the firewood had been completely drained on the way, and the firewood burned very well.
She didn't care about it, so she stuffed a few thin sticks into the stove, and she didn't dare to stuff too much, for fear that the fire would be extinguished.
Su Wu didn't dare to ask Feng Jing for help, for fear that he would see the problem in the stove, so she had to shout to Su Zhen, who was accompanying her mother, "Zhen'er, come and help me light the fire." ”
"Oh, okay."
Su Zhen's requirements for her sister are fulfilled every time.
"Sister, you can really burn the fire!"
"Of course, I'll come back with dry firewood in the future, and you don't use horse lamp oil in the house anymore, it's hard to extinguish that thing."
"Okay, sister." Su Zhen turned his head and glared at Feng Jing.
This stove has two notches, one with a big iron pot and the other with a soup pot, Feng Jing came over and consciously began to wash the two pots, after washing, he scooped up the water to fill the soup pot, and scooped two scoops of water into the big iron pot.
