Chapter 36: The clouds open and the fog disperses
"Sister-in-law?"
Seeing that Liu Meiniang fell into silence, and her face was also distracted and fell into silence, Zhang Jihan raised his hand and waved it tentatively in front of Liu Meiniang's eyes.
"Mother? I haven't seen my mother early in the morning, do you know where my mother went? ”
Liu Meiniang frowned, she didn't think of who would raise silkworms, but she suddenly remembered that after the sky was bright, she didn't see where Zhang Li was when she was eating.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, my mother heard that the mulberry tree was shipped early in the morning, so she hurriedly followed and stared at those people to plant the mulberry tree, I just saw my mother in the fish pond, I'm afraid you're worried, no, hurry back and tell you."
Zhang Jihan saw that Liu Meiniang was a little anxious, so he quickly made it clear that he had just seen Zhang Li in the fish pond, in fact, Zhang Jihan persuaded him a lot, and wanted Zhang Li to go home for dinner first, and he would just stare at it here, but Zhang Li said that if he didn't stare at it, it would become the work of the eldest daughter-in-law again.
So you have to share, in fact, no one is old when you get old, and you want to help the juniors share more, but when you are older, you should enjoy the truth of Qingfu, which is unreasonable in this poor family.
Although Zhang Li was sick when he was young, he was very strong in his bones, because for so many years, this family has been supported by her.
This is also the reason why Liu Meiniang has always been respectful to Zhang Li's family, in fact, whether it is Liu Meiniang before or Liu Meiniang now, she is full of respect for Zhang Li's great mother image.
"How's that going to work?"
Liu Meiniang heard that Zhang Li, who was not in good health, went out in the morning dew, how could this happen?
Liu Meiniang frowned, the watch drawn on her wrist when she was a child couldn't move, but it took away her best time, if she could give herself enough time to go back to the past, then Liu Meiniang must use the best time to accompany her most important family.
"I also tried to dissuade me, but my mother still stood there stubbornly, it was cold in the morning, and I thought about coming back to bring a dress for my mother."
Zhang Jihan suddenly remembered the purpose of his return, why did he stand in the courtyard and chat with his sister-in-law and Dandan?
"Well, since my mother doesn't want to come back, she will do what she wants, but the morning in the countryside is too cold, second brother, you go and pick up some clothes, I'll wait here to see the fish pond together."
After all, no one wants to admit that they are old, so they always want to prove something, for example, they can still work.
"Okay sister-in-law, I'll go right away."
Zhang Jihan nodded and motioned for himself to enter the house immediately.
"I'll go and help too, sister-in-law."
Zhang Dandan patted the dust on his buttocks just now because he was sitting on the ground, stood up, and came to Liu Meiniang's side.
"Dandan is good, but if the three of us are gone, and there is no one at home to watch the house, what do you say? Dandan is no longer a child, and the sister-in-law feels that Dandan can take on the great responsibility of taking care of the house. ”
Liu Meiniang touched Zhang Dandan's head and smiled gently, if such a smart and sensible good child is placed in modern times, he should be the most popular child in the class.
It's just a pity that in this evil feudal society, technology and labor are backward, and even people's thinking is old-fashioned and stubborn.
If a modern person comes to ancient times, will he start again because of a new life, and live a good life?
If in the first few days, I haven't been driven crazy by the gap between societies, probably not.
"Good sister-in-law, Dandan will definitely live up to the trust of sister-in-law!"
Zhang Dandan nodded, as if a soldier with a strong sense of responsibility was accepting a harsh mission.
"Good, second brother, let's go."
Zhang Jihan walked out of the house with a coat of Zhang Li and nodded at Liu Meiniang.
Sunrise and sunset are the routines of this farmer, because there is no light, electricity, not to mention any network, so the whole life has become simpler and purer.
At dawn, the big roosters in the yards of each house climbed up the high fence, shook the fiery red crown on their heads, and snarled their throats, making the first sound in the silent village.
In the first few days, Liu Meiniang always had no way to adapt to such a schedule and rest time, most of the time was spent thinking about future plans, and every time she thought about it, she felt that it was really a long way to go, so she didn't have so much sleep.
The next morning, it was different, because waking up early was the habit of the original host, and my mind was really tired and tight after changing into such a diligent body.
In the past, I was always afraid that I would attract the attention of the people in the family because of my habit of snoozing, so as to doubt my identity, but in fact, few people in the family had that kind of delicate mind, if you really want to say a delicate person, I am afraid that it can only be said that it is Zhang Dandan.
The child has been smart and clever since he was a child, as if he could see through the hearts of others.
The road in the field was covered with a thin layer of fog because the sky was not yet bright, and Liu Meiniang also brought Liu Meiniang a piece of clothing to wear on her body because Zhang Jihan said that the fog around the fish pond in the morning was very heavy, and she was afraid of catching a cold.
This kid is still a little heartwarming sometimes.
The road in the field is crooked, and when walking on the top, the dewy grass blades on both sides of the sheep intestine path will always hit Liu Meiniang's trouser legs, and Liu Meiniang felt that most of the trouser legs were wet after walking out a short distance.
"What's wrong, sister-in-law? But what are the snakes, rats, and mosquitoes in the fields? ”
Zhang Jihan felt that there was no sound of trouser legs rubbing blades of grass behind him, so he stopped and looked back at Liu Meiniang.
Liu Meiniang is bending down to pull up her trouser legs.
"It's okay, it's just that the dew is too heavy, and the trouser legs are wet, and I want to pull them up, otherwise it will be really uncomfortable."
Seeing that Liu Meiniang pulled up the trouser legs that were almost covering her shoes, her already slender ankles revealed her fair skin, and her bones were distinct.
"This."
Zhang Jihan hurriedly turned around, his originally fair cheeks were flushed crimson because he had just seen Liu Meiniang's skin, and Liu Meiniang saw Zhang Jihan, who had reacted abnormally, and realized that his behavior just now was really a bit inappropriate in this era.
In ancient times, if it was too exposed, it would be immersed in the pig cage?
Thinking of this, Liu Meiniang hurriedly pulled down her trouser legs, anyway, it was already wet, so it was uncomfortable, this evil feudal society really imprisoned women's freedom.
"Mother, it's so cold, let's come all the way, and the fog on the mountain will be dissipated at this time, and you are catching a cold."
Seeing Zhang Li standing by the fish pond from a distance, Liu Meiniang hurriedly walked up in three steps and two steps, and put the coat in Zhang Jihan's hand on Zhang Li's body/
"I said don't tell your sister-in-law, you kid."
Zhang Li saw Liu Meiniang walking over with Zhang Jihan, and hurriedly glared at Zhang Jihan, and then lowered his head like a child who had done something wrong.
"These days, it's not easy for my mother to see you busy before and after, and my mother can't help much, it's really distressing to look at it......"
Liu Meiniang looked at Zhang Li's child-like heart and sighed sincerely, she knew in her heart that in the past few days, the Zhang family's life has not only improved, but also much better than before.
Even when their father and eldest brother were still around, they should have never had such a good life, so it doesn't feel real now, and the feeling of suffering from gains and losses should not be pleasant.
"Mother, I know you are in a hurry, but everything has its own providence, as long as we do a good job step by step, wait slowly, and good days will definitely come."
Liu Meiniang grabbed Zhang Li's cold hands, because of the polishing of time, these hands are no longer as delicate as a woman should have, they are covered with wrinkles and calluses, all of which are traces left by time.
"If one day I get old and ugly, I'm going to die, and I can't accept myself like that."
Liu Meiniang remembers that she once said this with pride in her eyes, but now it's ridiculous to think about it, living means that every journey and every time is a new self.
"Liu Meiniang, what my mother doesn't understand now is that you see that the mulberry tree has been transplanted, but what kind of labor plan is this, why can't my mother understand it?"
Fortunately, Liu Meiniang was a liberal arts student at the beginning, so the knowledge point of "Sankey Fish Pond" is still very clear.
"Mother, this is a short plan that I don't understand, wait for my daughter-in-law to go home and find a time to talk to my mother about the truth, and now everything has just started, it is best for my mother to believe my words now."
If Liu Meiniang really wants to explain the modern knowledge points to the people of this era, she still needs a period of digestion and a good organization of the language, so as not to expose too many of her modern people's thoughts prematurely.
"Mother believes in you, these days, you are busy for your mother to see the pain in your heart, if there is anything really embarrassing, just tell the mother, the mother will do her best to help you, good children don't carry everything alone."
The emotions that Zhang Li had been holding back just now suddenly exploded, and the early morning fog dissipated, revealing a small patch of goose-yellow sun that was separated from each other.
The thin sunlight hit Zhang Li's face, and at that time, Liu Meiniang was thinking, no matter what kind of things this elder did in the future, he was a really soft-hearted person, so as long as it was his own day, he couldn't let her be wronged.
