"Mother, I ate at Peach Blossom's house, and I brought it back for you to eat. This bun is big, and it's hard for my sisters to eat too much at night. You and Dad will share this, and one for the three of them will be enough. ”
Du Yi was in high spirits today and made meat buns with his own hands. Considering that Brother Zhao only needs two steamed buns at a time, and she is unwilling to ask for one more, she holds a small abdomen and wraps two extra-large ones for her to bring back.
Hearing her daughter's words, a tear overflowed in Zhao Diniang's eyes. Suck in the tip of your nose and nod.
"Sister Peach Blossom is so nice, I haven't eaten meat in a long time!" The youngest, only six-year-old Brother Pan, grinned when he saw his mother agree, and said in a low voice.
"Fourth sister, you have to remember that everyone in the Liu family is good to us, especially your sister Yiyi. The reason why the eldest sister can help there is that you can still have silver to take, and you can eat these things every day, it is all because of your sister Yiyi who helped us. Your sister Yiyi is the biggest benefactor of our family. ”
Brother Zhao is a person with a clear mind, when Liu came to the door and said that he would go to her house to do work to give silver, she knew who agreed as soon as her mind turned.
Although Du Yi is not surnamed Liu, from the time she came into contact, she knew that the Liu family revolved around Du Yi. When it comes to money, she has to say yes.
Before the Liu family brought Du Yi back, the Liu family's life was not easy. All these transformations began after the appearance of Doe.
Because she thought about these things clearly, she agreed to go to Liu's house to help. It was precisely because Doi began to learn literacy with her that she became more and more desperate for Doe.
"Well, eldest sister, I know it all. Sister Yiyi is a nice person, she keeps us fed. Let Grandma not dare to scold you, and let us light oil lamps. Sister Yiyi is a great benefactor, and when I grow up, I want to repay her. ”
Brother Pan's words made Brother Zhao's heart warm.
Entering the lunar month and passing Laba, it means that the New Year is about to begin. The vegetables in the shed have already come out of size, and the result is beyond the expectations of the people of Liujia Village. The people who originally talked cool and watched the excitement closed their mouths tightly.
"I didn't expect it to be able to grow it. It's freezing on this day, how much silver does this dish have to sell? ”
"The Liu family is going to be completely haired now. That girl is really a god of wealth, since she came, the life of the Liu family has become more and more prosperous. ”
"You say, why don't I have such a goddaughter? If I had a daughter like that, I'm afraid I would wake up laughing in my dreams. ”
Now in Liujia Village, there are fewer people staring at Du Yi's belly, and there are more and more people saying good things about her.
Duyi's belly has begun to bulge gradually, but fortunately, she has no reactions such as drowsiness and morning sickness that pregnant women should have. Despite this, Liu's supervision of her has become stricter and stricter.
"Yiyi, I think the greens can be cut!" As soon as it got dark, Jiro returned.
During this time, he watched in the greenhouse during the day, and came back to accompany Liniang at night. Liu Dazhu is at home during the day and sleeps in the greenhouse at night.
"Second brother, you wait for me!" Du Yi, who had just been escorted back to bed by Liu, had not yet felt the slightest sleep, and when he heard Erlang's words, he tossed up.
As soon as Peach Blossom saw Du Yi's posture, she hurriedly went over to polish the ink. The two sisters have lived together for a while, and although Peach Blossom doesn't dare to say that she knows Du Yi's character very well, she still knows seven or eight points.
As soon as she saw the glint in her eyes, she knew that she planned to sell this batch of vegetables before the year.
"Second brother, you can help me deliver these two letters to Yufu and He Ji Liquor Store tomorrow."
"Good!"
Jiro looked at the envelope in his hand and nodded. During this time, he also learned a few simple words from Duyi. Now he knows the names of his family, as well as the names of the cooperating Yu Mansion and He Ji Liquor Shop.
"Second brother, how is the thing I asked you to ask?"
Du Yi saw that there was not even a small shop in the village, and life was extremely inconvenient, so he moved his mind.
In the winter of Liujia Village, it is covered with heavy snow, and it is very difficult to catch the market and go to the town. She planned to rent the empty house next to the village chief's house, in the middle of the village, and open a small shop there to earn some pocket money.
There are not even a store in the ten miles and eight villages around here. If there is a small shop in the village, there is no fear that people from other villages will not come to buy it.
"I've already asked, if you rent it, it's good to give 200 wen a year. The house had been empty for a long time, and I was afraid that it would collapse when the snow weighed down. ”
"I'm not afraid of that. Second brother, I'll give you a tael of silver first, you go to the village chief, rent it for me for five years, and remember to sign the contract. After the contract is in hand, you find a few people from the village to make a simple repair to the house. In addition, let someone make a shelf for me to come out, and the speed should be fast. ”
When Doe said the shelves, his hands didn't stop. When the words fell, a drawing of a shelf came out.
"Okay! It's still early, so I'll go to the village chief's house first and get this done. By the way, I will go to the carpenter's house, and it is estimated that it will be good in two days. ”
Erlang was originally an honest person who was a little wooden, but in the past few months, he has followed Du Yi's side, seen more of her way of doing things, and his personality has also changed a little. Even the words are more than ever to say.
The lease was obtained by Du Yi that night, and after the dinner at Liu's house the next morning, Qiao Shi came to have a regular meal with Du Yila. Of course, she didn't fall behind the words she should learn.
"Sister-in-law Qiao, I don't know what you think of me?" Qiao Shi helped Du Yi back to the house, and when he heard this, he was slightly stunned.
Qiao couldn't figure out Du Yi's mind and didn't know how to interface.
Doe knew what she was saying, and it was hard for her to answer. However, during this period of time, she saw Qiao's behavior and behavior, and secretly inquired, and the person was not bad, so she decided to give her a chance.
"Sister-in-law Qiao, you are a smart person, I can give you a chance to work, it depends on whether you will grasp it!"
Job opportunities? Qiao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded again and again: "As long as Yiyi gives your sister-in-law a chance, your sister-in-law will definitely not let you down." Whether it's laundry, cooking, or making clothes, my sister-in-law can do it all. Although embroidery does not dare to say a word, it is definitely in the past. ”
Doe shook his head and smiled. Standing up and walking around, he didn't forget to say: "Sister-in-law, I see that you have also learned some words over time, I want to teach you a simple algorithm, and when you learn it, I will let you help me look at the store." Oh, by the way, I plan to open a small shop in the village, so that everyone's life will be more convenient in this winter. ”
As soon as she heard and looked at the shop, the person who came into contact with the silver meant that Du Yi believed in her. Qiao Shi smiled happily and narrowed his eyes: "I will definitely not live up to your expectations, sister-in-law must study seriously." It's just Yiyi, do you still lack that bit of silver? It's as hard work as a variety of à la carte dishes. "Qiao's family has heard from his own masters that how well the dish grows, and how much silver it can sell for when the time comes.
I thought about it again, opening a small shop, it is a small fight.
"Hehe, who would think that there is a lot of silver? Besides, I still have one in my belly, how can I do it if I don't work hard to make some milk powder money? Doe smiled and touched his belly, a look of kindness.
"Milk powder money?" Qiao Shi didn't know what milk powder money was, but she knew that if Du Yi opened a small shop in the village, the life of the villagers would be much easier. It is even clearer that no matter how small the mosquito is, it is also the truth of meat.
Du Yi smiled brightly and pointed to his stomach: "Isn't there a little milk baby here?" Didn't you earn this money for him? ”
Qiao's face turned red, and then nodded: "Yes, parents have worked hard all their lives, not so that their children can live a better life, and they don't have to suffer so much." If you want to say that this child is really a blessed man. Sister-in-law said something from the bottom of her heart, don't you don't like to listen to it. No one will stay on this child. This child's life is big, and there is a mother like you who protects him. When he grows up in the future, if he is not filial to you, my sister-in-law will be the first to disobey! ”
This is the first time Qiao Shi has said about this child in front of Du Yi.
Now she has a big belly, and although the people in the village don't say it openly, they don't say it in secret. They all took Doyi's belly and gave the girl in the family an example to make her a bad example.
Since the first snowfall, Dui has lived a life of not leaving the gate and not stepping out of the second door. Although she didn't hear what the people in the village said, she still knew something about it.
Especially when those women pulled Zhao Brother to speak, Peach Blossom's indignant expression was a little guess.
"Sister-in-law Qiao, I don't know what will happen to others, and I don't want to know what others say. All I know is that this child is a piece of flesh on my body, a living human life. He has my blood in his bones, and I have to protect him. ”
Dooy's facial expression was extremely soft. But the words that can be revealed are completely opposite. Her position is very firm, this child, no one can move.
"You're so strong, too! This production date is also similar to that of your sister-in-law. When your child is born, your mother will definitely be too busy, and your sister-in-law will come to give you confinement at that time! ”
Qiao's marriage time is not long, and he has not given birth to a child yet, seeing Du Yi's expression, his heart is soft. Women's maternal love also overflowed. She was about to slap Du Yi, but she reached out and patted Du Yi's hand, which was silently supporting her.
The weather in the Purple Sun Country is extremely strange, this is the conclusion that Du Yi has summed up after crossing over for so long.
It stands to reason that October is still a warm day, and even if it is December, it will be at most the same as the modern late autumn, which is a little cold in the morning and evening. But at the end of October, the temperature difference between morning and evening changes greatly, and when it enters the winter moon, a rain almost buys early winter.
When it comes to the lunar month, starting from the second day of the first month, there will be a snow at both ends in three days. It is said that this situation will continue until February and March of the following year. By April, it would be as if overnight, and it would be warm.
Of course, at present, she has experienced the winter moon, and the wax moon has not been long in coming. The climate of the coming year has yet to be verified. It's just that on the day of this wax moon, the sky is cold and frozen, and the snow is white outside.
Dooy, dressed in heavy clothes, stood in front of the door, looking into the distance. Everything in front of me was silvery white, and there was no trace of snow on the ground, on the houses, on the trees, on the mountains. The whole village seems to have been transformed into a fairy tale world full of poetry and picturesqueness, and the pleasing scene of the snow harvest year is delightful.
The trees beside the road were covered with shiny silver bars, and the evergreens were covered with heavy snowballs. The snow on the road was more than 10 centimeters deep, and when I gently stretched out my foot and stepped on it, it made a "creaking" sound.
Peach Blossom stepped on the white velvet snow childishly, and saw the different shades of footprints left behind her, as if she had done something wrong that should not have been done. One glance at Doy, and then seeing the crystal clear snow being trampled beyond recognition, he couldn't bear to take another half step forward.
Then he couldn't help but stop, slowly squatted down, gently picked up a handful of snow from the ground, carefully kneaded it into a ball, and licked it with the tip of his tongue.
When Du Yi turned his head to go back to the house, he saw this scene and couldn't help but smile.
"Peach blossoms, is it delicious?"
Peach Blossom stiffened, then slowly raised her head, and when she looked at Du Yi, her originally cold face became hot.
"Yiyi, have you seen it all? I'm just curious, in the past, when it was winter, my father and second brother wouldn't let me go out. ”
Du Yi saw the loneliness on Peach Blossom's body, and his heart tightened. She knew that Peach Blossom's health was not good, and in previous years, she would come to the door from time to time to find a doctor. Liu Dazhu and Erlang must have been afraid that her cold would aggravate her condition, so they didn't let her go out.
"It's okay, you're in good health right now. As long as you can control your emotions, it's okay to go out once in a while. Isn't that what Dr. Che meant? Don't be afraid! ”
"Well, Yiyi, thank you!" Peach Blossom held Doe's hands tightly. These two words, she has wanted to say for a long time. This year's physical condition, without Dr. Che's diagnosis and treatment, she can clearly feel that it is much better than in previous years.
She knew that it was all thanks in part to the mushroom-like thing that Doe had made her eat in the first place. At the beginning, her mother recognized what it was called, needless to say, it must be a precious medicinal material. On the other hand, it is the result of better conditions at home, full of food, warm clothing, and no longer worrying about some chores.
"Fool, have you forgotten who I am now for you?" Du Yi took Peach Blossom's cold hands and walked towards Liniang's house without looking back.
Liniang has been lying in bed for nearly two months, and under Du Yi's special care, her health has improved a lot. Now the child has passed three months and can walk normally in the house.
It's just that Du Yi took into account the problem of the head injury on her back then, and still let her rest in the house, and she doesn't have to worry about everything at home, as long as she can raise the fetus with peace of mind.
Du Yi's child is half a month earlier than Li Niang's, but Li Niang's belly is much more protruding than Du Yi's. Du Yi tightened a little left of the lower abdomen and slightly protruded a piece of flesh.
"Why is Yi here? Sit down. Your body is still weak, don't toss around, if you let your mother see it, you should talk about it again. ”
"Sister-in-law, don't make a fuss, what's the matter with your own home. As long as you don't tell your mother, it's okay. ”
Du Yi is Liu's eyeball, since the weather was cold and the road surface began to freeze, Liu longed to stick to Du Yi's side for twelve hours.
If she hadn't gone to the town with Erlang today to prepare for the New Year's gift for Liniang's mother's family, she wouldn't have left Du Yi half a step.
It is said that Erlang replaced Liniang and went to the Chen family to apologize. Chen Fangshi saw that Erlang didn't even let the door in, his nostrils were facing the sky, and after receiving the apology in front of everyone, he closed the door again with a bang.
After Erlang went home, he truthfully informed Liniang of the situation, which made Liniang sad for several days before she recovered. Now Liu decided to go to the town to buy New Year's gifts in person, and by the way, he also bought the New Year's goods at home.
Time flies quickly, and the day is spent in my sister-in-law's chat.
