Chapter 253: Skincare

The wages of the sister-in-law of the Chen family and the eldest sister of the Liu family are five yuan and four cents in total, and Mu Xiu was also generous, one of them gave five yuan, and the two of them shirked not to be so much, and in the end, Mu Xiu forced it into them, and the two of them were so smiling that they couldn't find their eyes.

After Mu Xiu finished paying, there were only more than 5,000 yuan left in her pocket, she sighed, the money was too unspent, this family was too thin, and there were many disasters, and she didn't know how much the crops harvested this time could be sold for.

Mu Xiu's family started a new house this time, because it was set on fire by others, so this time it stopped burning the bottom of the pot, just in time for the harvest in the field, and there was a ready-made reason not to burn the bottom of the pot.

After being busy for almost a month, the harvest will take about ten days to harvest, Mu Xiu set a date for them, let them have a good rest, recuperate their spirits, and then start harvesting immediately.

The last time she went up the mountain, Mu Xiu made all the wild strawberries into strawberry jam, because it was more sour, she put a lot of honey in it, put it in a glass bottle, and drank it in water on weekdays, or smeared it on steamed buns, which tasted great.

At that time, a total of five small bottles were made, and the remaining four bottles were put into the bucket in the well, and when the pressurized water well was made, there were about thirty deep holes left next to it, just enough to throw a bucket in, just for the summer, put the uneaten things into the bucket and sink down, this well is like a small Xiaoice box.

Mu Xiu also made dried figs into figs, the entrance is sweet, and it tastes glutinous and soft, Zhou Shuilian loves to eat it very much, Mu Xiu also planted thick fig branches in the backyard, so that there will be figs to eat in a few years, and this fire did not hurt these fruit trees in the backyard.

The cherry tree moved from place to place, and grew happily, and several branches branched out from the trunk, and each branch branched out into many small branches, which stretched out to the sky like a race, and the leaves on the trunk also became dark green, and there were large patches of them, like a large pergola.

"When the fig tree grows up, this yard will be cool." Mu Shui lay in the yard, he had made a few rocking chairs out of bamboo, but now they were also useful, and in the evening, the family sat under the tree, the breeze was blowing, eating and chatting, and they were happy.

After this fire, Zhou Shuilian forgave Mu Shui, and everyone tacitly did not mention the previous incident, Mu Shui is especially grateful now, he is really determined not to have anything to do with the Mu family again.

Although Muxiu said that he misses the air conditioner very much, but now the rural weather is not like a few decades later, various pollution such as air conditioning outdoor units and car exhaust make the weather hot, only when the sun rises, as long as the sun is avoided, the sun goes down, and the temperature will come down slowly, and in the middle of the night, sleep in the yard, and cover it with a thin quilt.

The grape trellis is also propped up, but in the first year, there is nothing on the shelf, but looking at this growth, it is conceivable that by next year, you will be able to eat grapes.

"Show her mother, are you at home?" A voice came from outside the door.

"Sister-in-law of the Chen family, you are here, have you eaten?" Zhou Shuilian opened the door, it was the sister-in-law of the Chen family, and this was one of the few friends she could visit.

"I've eaten it." The sister-in-law of the Chen family entered the door, followed by a girl with a flushed face.

"Xiao Jing is also here, hurry up and come in and sit." Xiao Jing shouted by Zhou Shuilian is the daughter of the Chen family's sister-in-law, and she is nineteen years old this year.

"This yard is really exciting, it's not hot when you come in, or you will pick it up, look at my yard, it's messy, this is a few eggs that I came to see Brother Mu, don't dislike it." The sister-in-law of the Chen family smiled as she handed over the bowl with the eggs in her hand.

"Hey, sister-in-law of the Chen family, why are you so polite, our family built a house, thanks to your help, you still take this back to Xiaojing to eat, and if you get married in the future, you will be wronged in your in-law's family." Zhou Shuilian pushed the eggs to the Chen family's sister-in-law again.

"One yard to one yard, you take it quickly, or I'll be embarrassed to come in." The sister-in-law of the Chen family pushed it back, and Zhou Shuilian could only accept it helplessly.

"Aunt Chen, sit down, I'll pour some water for you and Sister Xiaojing." Mu Xiu also likes Aunt Chen, on weekdays, she is very cheerful.

"Xiu, you are so sensible, how can you be Xiaojing with my family, at this age, you are always embarrassed to call people." The sister-in-law of the Chen family took Xiao Jing's hand and sat down after entering the courtyard.

"Xiao Jing is just like her name, quietly, how can I have these leather monkeys in my family, I still want a girl like Xiao Jing." Zhou Shuilian said this, but she is very rare among her own daughters.

The sister-in-law of the Chen family laughed, and Xiao Jing's face turned even redder.

"Come, drink some bamboo leaf water, and get off the fire." Mu Xiu brought two bowls of water, put them on the table, and sat behind Zhou Shuilian.

"Sister-in-law, Xiao Jing is about to go out, are you all ready?" Zhou Shuilian asked curiously, because she went to the hospital to take care of Mu Shui, she hadn't seen the Chen family's sister-in-law for a few days.

Listening to Zhou Shuilian talk about her marriage, Xiao Jing's head was almost lowered to her heart.

"I have only four children, and I have this daughter, although the family is not rich, but I can't lose her no matter what." The sister-in-law of the Chen family looked at Xiao Jing with a loving face, and then said: "We got married at that time, wore a new dress, tied a red head rope and went out, how can it be good to look good or not, but now the young people are married, and they are all dressed up in flowers, I heard that people in the city still learn from foreigners to wear wedding dresses, we are not as good as others, but we also want to make our daughters look better." ”

"Who said it wasn't, this marriage, but a woman's top priority, marrying beautifully, and her husband's family also has face." Zhou Shuilian was deeply touched, she even felt that Mu Xiaocao was finally disliked by Li Xingzhi because she became ugly, after all, in the first two years, the two of them lived a fairly good life.

"Last time, my hand was cracked, you gave me a cream, I took it back and wiped it a few times, the hand was not only moist, but also white, and it was not cracked, so I applied it to my face, and even my mouth said that I had a good complexion, and that alabaster was really a good thing." The sister-in-law of the Chen family said this, and said a little embarrassed: "A few days ago, I did a lot of farm work, and Xiao Jing was tanned, so I wanted to come to you and ask, how can the alabaster be sold, let's buy a bottle for the girl, and pick up the spirit to get married, but your family encountered this again, and you went to the hospital......

"What else should I be, it turned out to be alabaster, which Mu Xiu made by herself, after this hot day, I thought it was a little greasy to use, so I didn't let her do it again." After Zhou Shuilian finished speaking, she looked at Mu Xiu.
