Pu Cao and Mrs. Li were doing needlework, and they both felt funny when they heard Chunni and Magpie tossing in the East House. Mrs. Li pinched the tip of the needle and scratched her scalp, and sighed, "This Chunni, I was eager to beat this girl just now, but when I saw that people were pitiful, I relented again." ”

Pu Cao is also angry and funny, and originally hoped that Chunni would be good to the end, and help her hone the magpie's temperament in the future. This is good, people shed a few tears, and she relented.

But when I think about it, I feel warm in my heart, if Chunni wasn't born with this kind heart, and saved the cake every day and stole it to the original Pucao to eat, how could she be where she is now. It seems that in the future, the "wicked" in this family will still have to be played by her.

Peach Blossom and Shanzi came back from the east wing, looked at the door of the east house curiously for a while, and then smiled and said when they lay on their sister-in-law's lap, "Sister-in-law, that bad guy sister is so stupid, she can't burn the kang." ”

Pu Cao tapped on their heads in disgust and said with a smile, "Don't laugh at others, she just hasn't done it before, just learn more in the future." ”

The two children naughtily stuck out their tongues, lit another oil lamp, sat quietly at the table, and wrote in big letters. The light reflected two serious and well-behaved little faces, not to mention how happy they were.

Mrs. Li occasionally looked up and saw this, and then remembered that her two grandsons were already four years old, and they should be sent to the school for enlightenment in two years. It's just that now that the family looks like this, it is still difficult to eat and clothe warmly, where is there still money to buy paper and pencils? I'm afraid that when they grow up, the family can save enough money to marry a daughter-in-law for them to inherit the lineage, which will be good.

Pu Cao heard the old lady sigh, and when she looked up, she understood three points. I remembered the sudden inspiration I got before entering the city in the morning, so I hurriedly put down the needle and thread in my hand, stepped forward to help Mrs. Li and said with a smile, "Auntie, I was busy entering the city in the morning but I forgot it, I originally had a good craft to teach you." Let's think about it in the past two days, maybe it's a great opportunity to make a fortune. ”

It was rare for Mrs. Li to see Pu Cao so excited and happy, and she heard that it was a matter of getting rich, so she smiled and said, "Okay, good, the eldest mother will learn from you, if you get rich, the eldest lady will share half of you." ”

An old man and a young man laughed and entered the east house, Pu Cao didn't pay attention to Chunni and magpie squatting at the door of the stove pit, went straight to pick up the small cloth bag in the corner of the wall, poured most of the half a catty of mung beans out, and finally found a small clay pot to blister it.

Chunni walked around Pu Cao with a curious face, and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing soaking mung beans, do you want to boil mung bean porridge tomorrow morning?" ”

Pu Cao smiled and refused to solve her doubts, and said foolishly, "You'll know in five or six days, and you'll be surprised." After saying that, she stuffed the clay pot into the past and instructed, "This should be placed in the corner of the vegetable shed, remember not to let the sun shine." ”

Chunni pouted and complained, "Every time it's so mysterious, it's not that you want me to help in the end." She said this, but her feet walked out with very obedient steps. Mrs. Li was worried that she would slip halfway through her temper, so she smiled and said, "Pucao, I'll also go to the vegetable shed for a walk, and I'll go back to sleep directly after a while." ”

Pu Cao answered, and the two went out together.

Pucao went back to the West House and found the two old mattresses at home, took them to the east room and threw them to the magpies. The magpie didn't know if it was numb from the blow, or if it had another ghost idea in its stomach, so it hung its head without thanking or glaring angrily.

Pu Cao ignored her, beckoned the two children to wash their feet and sleep, and then was busy writing cross talk jokes for Fang Jie. Occasionally, when she writes interestingly, the corners of her mouth can't help but curl up, and she smiles happily and proudly...

Early the next morning, before the sky was completely bright, Dongzi came to the door to get the manuscript of Pucao, and hurried back to the city with a climbing plow.

Pu Cao stood at the gate of the courtyard and looked at it for a while, then shook his head with a smile, as if he wanted to shake away the trace of worry and reluctance in his heart, and finally turned around and trotted back to the house to continue to play the role of the vicious landlord's wife, urging the magpie to get up early and cook.

The magpie covered the tattered futon last night, listened to the cold wind whimpering outside the house, was angry and regretful, and tossed and turned until midnight before barely sleeping. At this time, she returned to Nian'en Garden in her dream, and it was while doing needlework and laughing with the thrush that she sneaked out to shop after making a monthly payment. I didn't want to be woken up by Pucao's vigorous push, and when she opened her eyes, she fell into the cold reality again, and the disappointment in her heart immediately rushed out, causing her to sit up suddenly, and said angrily, "This still doesn't let people live?" If you don't have a good house or a good bedding, forget it. But I'm a donkey, shouldn't I be resting at night? ”

Pu Cao sneered and threw the quilt corner in his hand, and said coldly, "You can't catch up with the donkey now, when you @ compare to the donkey, I will reward you with a piece of bean cake!" ”

"You... You! The magpie stretched out his finger and pointed at Pu Cao, who didn't know what to scold for a while, but he didn't want Pu Cao to slap her hand down hard, and scolded, "Call the master in the future, if you commit it again, get out of my sleep!" Hurry up and cook in the field, it's a little bit, you're hungry today! ”

The magpie's face turned purple with anger, and he gasped for a long time, and in the end, under the threat of freezing and starvation, he reluctantly went to the stove with his shoes on.

Pu Cao pointed her to find a place to store rice noodles and spices, and went back to the house to continue sleeping.

Half an hour later, the sky was completely bright, and the whole family got up to wash up and busily. When Chunni's mother and daughter came to take care of it, the magpie's breakfast was served on the table.

Pu Cao glanced twice, although he felt that the bud porridge was so thin that it could show the shadow of a person, and the salted radish strips were as thick as a finger, but fortunately, the steamed buns with two noodles were steaming, and on the whole, they were barely passable. So, she beckoned Chunni's mother and daughter to eat together.

Zhang Guier heard her sister talk about buying a maid at home last night, and complained a little about why her sister-in-law didn't buy him a scholar to come back. At this time, I saw the magpie standing behind everyone, waiting for the porridge to be handed over to the chopsticks, and suddenly I felt in a good mood, and my chest was higher. After all, their Zhang family will also be a high-class family that can afford slaves and maids in the future, not to mention other places, only this Nangou Village is the first one.

Thinking like this, he also forgot the rule of waiting for his sister-in-law to move the chopsticks first, and Xizizi lowered his head and drank a big mouthful of porridge. As a result, the porridge had just been swallowed before he tilted his head and spit it out.

Pu Cao saw that his eyebrows and eyes were crowded together, and thought that he was hot, so he quickly got up and poured a cup of herbal tea and handed it over, saying, "Why are you eating in such a hurry, wait for the porridge to cool before drinking." ”

Zhang Gui couldn't care about any gentlemanly demeanor at this time, so he took the tea and poured it down, only then did he take a long breath and said angrily, "Who boiled porridge here, why is it so salty?" ”

When everyone heard this, they all lowered their heads and picked a little bit in the bowl with chopsticks and tasted it, and at the end they all frowned. Mrs. Li has been starving and suffering for most of her life, and she can't see people spoiling food, but the magpie is not her own slave and can't scold, so she has to sigh and say, "Evil, evil." ”

Chunni also dropped her chopsticks and shouted, "Who is this dead girl trying to harm her?" So saying, she moved her stool to pick up the magpie.

Pu Cao got up and stopped her, saying, "I'll go and steam a few bowls of egg custard to deal with it first, as for this porridge... Since the magpie has made this taste, she must love it so much, so she will give it all to eat. ”

The magpie originally thought that Pucao would be the first to drink porridge, and he was thinking that he would be beaten and let out his evil anger. Unexpectedly, it was Zhang Guier who suffered first, and it was really a failure. She was just a little step back in frustration, her eyes dripping and rolling, in case everyone grabbed something to hit her. But she didn't want to hear Pu Cao ask her to drink a pot of salty and bitter porridge, she couldn't wait to raise her hand and slap herself twice, why did she think of such a stupid idea?

Pu Cao seemed to feel so puzzled, and threw another sentence when she went out, "Chunni looks at it, and she is not allowed to drink water!" ”

This is clearly to kill her, it is better to beat her more painfully. The magpie held his breath in his chest, and he sat down on the ground with a puff.

The peasant family values food the most, and no matter how angry they are on weekdays, they don't get angry with food, and the magpie is really taboo for everyone. Therefore, everyone at the table turned their heads and gossiped, and no one planned to say a word of affection for her.

The grass was clean and clean, but it took a quarter of an hour to bring back the hot custard. While eating with relish, everyone watched the magpies drink the bud porridge like a decoction, and they all felt extremely relieved.

Near noon, a little daughter-in-law came to Pucao to ask for a few embroidery patterns, and it was very novel to see that the Zhang family had a big girl, and asked a few words to learn that it was a maid who was bought, and immediately opened her mouth and stared at her. When she turned home, the men, women and children in the village naturally heard about this new story very quickly.

So, some people envy that the Zhang family is developed, and some people complain that Pucao is delicious and lazy and can't live, in short, Nangou Village is lively again.

A few little daughters-in-law who are close to Pucao on weekdays can't help but be curious, and they come to the door to sit together. Pu Cao was warmly welcomed, took out half a box of hazelnut walnuts, and chatted with them while beckoning everyone to try them.

The little daughters-in-law all smiled and looked at the magpie, one praised her for being handsome, and the other praised her for being white and tall. Chunni hugged the pickled plum and complained while eating, "What's the use of being good-looking, you can't burn the kang and can't cook, it's just a decoration!" ”

When everyone heard this, they naturally wanted to ask, and Chun Nier saw that Pucao had no intention of stopping her, so she said all the words and deeds of the magpie after entering the courtyard gate, which made all the little daughters-in-law laugh, and instantly threw the little envy in her heart to the sky. But no, women rely on diligence and dexterity to live a life, but what's the use of having a good face, and they don't eat, drink and wear.

The magpie poured a stomach of bud porridge in the morning, and it was so salty that his lips turned white. If she was judged like a monkey like this, she would have been angry. But at this moment, all she had in her eyes was the teapot on the table, and she couldn't wait to rush forward in a few steps to pick it up and pour it into a breath to quench her thirst completely.

But in the morning, Pucao didn't beat or scold, and only a few words made her suffer such a big crime, and she didn't dare to act rashly anymore.
