When the rice was served, Su Jinyao deliberately set aside a big bowl of rice for Sophie, and sandwiched a lot of fried shredded pork with cabbage on top. Then buckle it with another bowl and set it aside.

Xiao Cheng'er saw it, pouted and said, "Don't give dinner to that conscienceless eldest sister." Eating the meat you bought, it's still so hypocritical. I think my father is right, she is uncomfortable when she has a good life. Like before, her hands were torn from the laundry every day, and there was no decent meal at home, so she called something. ”

Su Jinyao's hand holding the rice bowl stiffened, looked up at Xiaocheng'er and looked at the bowl she had left for Sophie. Originally, she didn't listen to Xiaocheng'er's words, and Su Jinyao also felt aggrieved in her heart. But when Xiaocheng'er said this, Su Jinyao felt sorry again. Thinking about Sophie's worn-out hands washing clothes in order to support this family, what else could she not bear. Isn't it just a quarrel between sisters, and it's good to use a little fight as a spice in life.

Su Jinyao glared at Xiao Cheng'er and said, "As long as you talk a lot, if you didn't enter the house and ask about the dish, you wouldn't be able to make a noise." Don't talk about the eldest sister in the future, after all, she is the boss of our family, she has done so much for our family, and she has suffered a lot. She's also a teenage girl, can't she be a little tempered? ”

"Yo, second sister, are you blaming me for being quick and provoking your sisterhood?" Xiao Cheng'er took a bite of fried shredded pork with cabbage, and deliberately said in the tone of her eldest sister Sophie. That look, that tone, I learned ten out of ten.

Su Jinyao almost sprayed rice with a smile, turned the chopsticks over, knocked them on Xiao Cheng'er's head with the chopsticks, and said, "Stinky boy, what is wrong with learning?" Eat quickly, there will really be life in a while. ”

After speaking, Su Jinyao also took a big bite to eat. The previous grievances and boredoms were swept away.

Xiao Cheng'er was slapped by Su Jinyao and deliberately glared at him. also muttered in a pretentious manner: "Yo, it depends on you getting used to her, let her lose her temper." Or your sisterhood. Are you two sisters going to gang up and bully me? ”

"Shut up and eat." Su Jinyao drank again, this time Xiaocheng'er really didn't move.

However, Xiao Cheng'er's mouth couldn't stay idle, and after a while, he muttered about the delicious white rice, and said that he hadn't eaten meat for a long time. Su Xiangui, who spoke bluntly, also laughed.

Su Jinyao looked at the smile on the corner of her father's mouth, and looked at the contentment on Xiaocheng'er's face when she muttered these words, and her heart was also happy and warm. It's a good day like this.

After eating, Su Jinyao and Xiao Cheng'er picked out all the dishes and chopsticks together, and Xiao Cheng'er still went to wash the dishes. Su Jinyao picked up the bowl of rice left for Sophie and walked into the house.

Xiao Cheng'er saw it and called softly in the back: "Second sister? ”

"Wash your dishes." Su Jinyao glared at Xiao Cheng'er, meaning to let him leave it alone.

Outside, the door was closed, and Sophie could be heard sobbing lowly. Su Jinyao's heart softened a little, and she called at the door: "Eldest sister, let's eat." ”

"Don't eat, don't eat." Sophie was still losing her temper, but listening to the trilling tone, she was really sad.

Su Jinyao took a deep breath outside the door, and with a smile on her face, she pushed open the door and called again: "Eldest sister." ”

"Don't you have your own house? What are you doing here? Su Fei'er glared at Su Jinyao, but looked at the rice bowl in Su Jinyao's hand, flattened her mouth, and said, "Don't you always say, don't stick a hot face to other people's cold butts, why do you still come to bring me food?" I, I don't want to see you. ”

Su Jinyao knew that Sophie didn't have good things to say when she was angry, but now she is not so angry when she listens to it. Walked up to Sophie, put down the dishes and chopsticks, and took down the rice bowl that was covered. Then he deliberately took a deep breath and said, "Xiaocheng'er said, our family hasn't eaten serious pork for a long time." Aren't you hungry, big sister? Smelling the shredded pork fried with cabbage, not greedy? ”

"Not hungry, not hungry." Sophie said stiffly, but her stomach "gurgled".

Su Jinyao smiled and hurriedly said, "Your stomach is more honest than your mouth." Hurry up and eat it, if it gets cold for a while, the meat won't be fragrant. ”

"If you don't eat that, you won't eat it." Hearing Su Jinyao laugh, Sophie was even more annoyed, and casually smashed the pillow next to her.

Su Jinyao frowned, but still didn't lose her temper, but said, "You have such a big temper, what can Brother Wu Niu do if he can't bear it in the future?" If he likes to be gentle, are you still like that? ”

"Who said that Brother Wu Niu likes gentleness? Why am I so grumpy? Sophie stared at her eyes and shouted, and then she knew that her mouth was fast, her face flushed, and she said hatefully: "The dead girl has so many eyes, this is my words." ”

Su Jinyao also rolled her eyes and said, "Cut, who rarely takes your words." Actually, I'm a very good person, and I also helped you ask your father about you and Brother Wu Niu. ”

"What? You asked my father about me and Brother Wu Niu? What's the matter? Sophie suddenly became anxious and asked.

Su Jinyao took the opportunity to hand over the rice bowl, motioned for Sophie to take it, and said.

Sophie still had to hold the shelf and twist her head. But his eyes secretly looked at Su Jinyao's hand.

Su Jinyao simply stuffed the bowl into Sophie's hand and said, "You are eating, listen to me, okay?" A good thing, a really good thing. I promise not to provoke it, and I will be a matchmaker for you. ”

"Phew, who wants you to be a matchmaker." Sophie snorted, then laughed herself, and said with a red face: "The dead girl is not ashamed, just talk about these things." Don't talk to you, I'll eat. ”

"Well, let's eat." Su Jinyao also smiled, made it on the edge of the kang, looked at Su Fei'er and said while eating: "I asked my father, and he said that he knew that you like Brother Wu Niu." ”

"What? I ......" Sophie put down the bowl in her hand as if she was in a hurry.

Su Jinyao felt her hand hold, let her continue to eat, and continued: "You continue to eat, listen to me tell you slowly." However, you are not allowed to be in a hurry with me, otherwise, I will really make peace behind my back, so that you and Brother Wu Niu have nothing to say. ”

Hearing Su Jinyao say this, Su Fei'er's momentum suddenly weakened. It can be seen that in Sophie's heart, Chen Wuniu is really important, otherwise she would not have been pinched with such a sentence.

Su Jinyao secretly smiled again, and then said: "Dad said that you are not too young, if you really like Brother Wu Niu, he will not object." So I'm here to tell you, don't hide it, just say it if you like, and settle the matter between the two of you. ”

"How do you settle down?" Sophie said, raised her eyes and glanced at Su Jinyao, and there were tears in her eyes. finally swallowed the rice in her mouth, and Sophie choked and said: "Our family is poor, and the Chen family is rich, it's not the same material, so we can't pinch it together." ”

Sophie's sentence was full of sadness, and after she finished speaking, she couldn't hold back the big tears, and they fell into the rice bowl one by one.

Su Jinyao sighed when she saw it, took the rice bowl from Su Fei'er's hand, and said softly: "Why are you crying again while eating?" You can't change your temperament? But seeing Sophie shed tears, Su Jinyao could only pinch her sleeves and wipe her.

When Sophie is not making trouble, she is still very well-behaved with low eyebrows. Su Jinyao wiped her tears, and she raised her chin slightly, looking really not angry.

Su Jinyao said seriously: "I know you're worried about being poor at home, but if you like it, you like it, and there's nothing unworthy." If Brother Wu Niu also likes you, no one can be separated together; But if he doesn't like you, I won't persuade you. ”

"He'll love it." Sophie hurriedly said: "Brother Wu Niu doesn't even look at the girls from other families in the village, I know that he has a high vision, and even there are girls in the town who like him." But every time he comes back, he comes to our house, doesn't that mean that he misses our family? ”

Speaking of this, Su Fei'er raised her eyes and glanced at Su Jinyao, and said in a low voice: "The eldest sister also knows that Brother Wu Niu most likes you." But he didn't say that he wouldn't want to see me, and I still thought in my heart, thinking that maybe after a long time, he could know how good I was. In the past, when Jinyao's brain was not good, the eldest sister thought that if she could really marry Brother Wu Niu, the eldest sister would marry you with her, firstly, the eldest sister was willing to take care of you for a lifetime, and secondly, it also made Brother Wu Niu settle down with that thought about you. ”

"Ahem" Su Jinyao didn't take a breath after listening to Su Fei'er's words, and choked several times. She knew that in ancient times, it was normal for polygamy, or for sisters to marry the same husband.

Especially when the man's family conditions are good and the woman's family conditions are poor, the woman's family is afraid that the girl will suffer in her husband's family, so she will deliberately marry her sister too, so that the sisters can also take care of each other. This also saves the man from having to take a concubine, and finally get an outsider to enter the door and compete for favor with his daughter.

But this kind of thing is normal in Sophie's opinion, but Su Jinyao can't accept it. Not to mention that she was born as a killer, she can't allow other women to mess with her nose, even if she is just an ordinary modern woman, it is difficult to accept sharing her husband with another woman.

Su Jinyao hurriedly pressed Su Fei'er's hand, signaled her not to go on, and said at the same time: "Eldest sister, you really think too much." Don't say I'm still young, not old enough to talk about marriage. Even if I'm really old enough to get married, I don't have to worry about other people's affairs. Just think about your own business. If you like Brother Wu Niu, then get along with him. Don't worry, I don't like him, and I won't be among you. This morning's incident is actually a misunderstanding between you, although I said that we had a quarrel last night, but I just wanted Brother Wu Niu to come and talk to you, and I didn't complain to him and say that you didn't mean it. ”

After listening to Su Jinyao's explanation, Su Fei'er was still skeptical and asked, "You really don't like Brother Wu Niu?" He is the most prolific in our village, and he is good-looking and of the same age. You said that you are still young, but if you look at any other man of your age in our village, who is as good as Brother Wu Niu? ”

Listening to Sophie's meaning, or are you worried about yourself? Su Jinyao shook her head and said, "Eldest sister, since you say so, then I will also remind you." Take a long-term view, don't just stare at the few pieces of material in our village. If you recognize Brother Wu Niu, then it's fine. Don't regret having great insight in the future? ”

"Regret what? Brother Wu Niu has girls in the town who like it, can I still compare with the girls in the town? After Sophie finished speaking, she looked at Su Jinyao again and asked, "Jinyao, listen to what you mean, do you still want to marry in the town?" ”

"It's too early to get married. If you really get married......" Su Jinyao thought about it, and a figure appeared in front of her. Su Jinyao trembled in her heart, don't be poisoned by that little man, how can this kind of thing be good now.

Quickly shook her head, Su Jinyao said: "Don't talk about where to marry, anyway, the person I want to marry must not be an ordinary person." If it's too mediocre, let alone in the town, even in the city, I'm not uncommon. ”

"Cut, the stupid girl is not stupid, her heart is really high." Sophie laughed, pointed to the rice bowl and said, "Give me the rice, and continue to eat." Otherwise, it's really not fragrant when it's cold. ”

Su Jinyao picked up the rice bowl, touched the edge of the bowl, and said, "It's a little cold, I'll give you hot water?" ”

"Oops, no. In the past, I was busy from morning to night, going to clean up the vegetable patch for other people's houses during the day, and coming back at night to wash clothes in a hurry, and I had to take care of you, and I had to pour urine for my father, so it would be nice to have a bite to eat. Cold rice is also a meal with and without a meal, and I still care about this. After Sophie finished speaking, she took the bowl from Su Jinyao's hand and ate it in a big gulp.

Hearing Sophie Er say this, Su Jinyao was stumped in her heart, got up and poured a cup of hot water, put it next to Sophie, and then sat on the edge of the kang and quietly watched Sophie eat quietly.

When Sophie looked up occasionally, she saw Su Jinyao looking at her. deliberately glanced at him and said, "What are you looking at?" I'm not a flower. ”

"Eldest sister, you have also worked hard." Su Jinyao said from the bottom of her heart. She knows how to be grateful, and she understands that it is not easy for a thirteen-year-old girl to support this family. Since they are relatives and sisters, let's disperse if they don't feel happy.

"Cut, when did the stupid girl talk so well. My nose is sour again. Sophie wiped her nose and said, "Jinyao, you haven't said it yet, why did you make so much money today?" I asked my father, and my father said that you worked hard and felt very distressed. ”

Since Sophie asked, Su Jinyao didn't mean to hide it, anyway, there was no shame in picking up things. Su Jinyao moved into the kang, sat more comfortably, and then told Sophie what happened today.

Sophie was stunned when she heard it, and finally the meal was finished, and Su Jinyao also finished speaking. Sophie sighed and said, "Jin Yao, you are really capable, and you have a smart brain. ”

Hearing what Sophie said, Su Jinyao took the bowl in her hand and said, "Don't say I'm capable, in fact, you are also capable." Don't worry, the money I earn in the future will be divided into four points in our family, and each of us has a different division of labor, but we all have a share. I went out to make money, and you took care of your father at home, which is also a credit. ”

Sophie smiled and asked, "You still buy me cloth to make clothes?" But I can only mend sews, not make clothes. In the past, when my mother was still alive, my mother's dexterity was that my mother measured the size for us, made clothes, and embroidered on clothes. But I really didn't learn at all. ”

Since Sophie doesn't know how to make clothes, she has to take them out and make them. Su Jinyao waved her hand and said, "It's okay, you know whose eldest sister and aunt are skillful and make good clothes, let's take it and let her make it for us." Let's give money. ”

Sophie thought for a while and said, "Sister Qiuhong can make clothes, and they look good." Why don't I bring the material to her tomorrow? ”

Su Jinyao was a little familiar with the name "Sister Qiuhong", and then thought about it and remembered that today Sophie bought the vegetables at her house. Five cents and two catties, but they are all wilted and rotten. Su Jinyao subconsciously felt that this person would not be a good person, at least not a good heart.

Su Jinyao originally wanted to shake her head, but after thinking about it again, maybe Sophie had a good relationship with that "Sister Qiuhong"? Otherwise, with Sophie's temperament, she wouldn't have been chattering all the time. If the two of them are really best friends, it's hard to say anything about themselves. Even if Sister Qiu Hong really sold the rotten vegetables to Sophie, then Sophie was willing to buy it.

Thinking of this, Su Jinyao said: "Then if the eldest sister can trust it, you can take it and ask." Xiaocheng'er and Dad's are not in a hurry to do it first, and I will ask other people's homes. ”

"Well, that's fine." Sophie nodded and said, "Actually, I see that Sister Qiuhong just made a dress, which is quite beautiful, I took the fabric and asked her to make one for me." ”

Su Jinyao said: "Then I'll get you the fabric." After that, he went out with a bowl.

Sophie sat on the kang and thought about it, and went out with her. When they came to the outer room together, they saw Xiaocheng'er squatting on the ground and writing again. The ground in the house was so solid that it was not easy to write, so the town was written on the ground with a branch dipped in water.

Sophie said: "Cheng'er, what about still writing?" Don't write it, lamp oil is so expensive. ”

Su Jinyao squatted down, looked at the words written by Xiao Cheng'er, and nodded and said, "Yes, the oil lamp is too dim, it hurts your eyes, don't write it." These words are really well written. I'll teach you something else tomorrow. ”

Xiao Cheng'er agreed with a smile, looked at Su Fei'er and then at Su Jinyao, and grimaced: "If you weren't talking in the house, I wouldn't be writing here." Who knows what whispers you say, what you like, what you marry, it's embarrassing to hear. ”

Su Jinyao was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that Xiaocheng'er, this kid, really had a heart. It must have been listening to himself and Sophie talking about Chen Wuniu in the house, and it was inconvenient for him to come in and listen, so he wrote outside alone.

It's really good for a nine-year-old child to be so eye-catching. If it had been another child, it is estimated that they would have come in to listen to the excitement.

Sophie blushed, spitted, and asked Su Jinyao, "Where's the material?" Show me. Don't listen to the city chewing his tongue here. ”

Xiao Cheng'er grimaced at Sophie again, and then went to take the burden that Su Jinyao brought back, put it on the table, and said, "This is the fabric, several large pieces." ”
