Pucao's family got up early to eat together, and Peach Blossom and Shanzi only ate a few bites of a bowl of egg custard in their hands, and then blinked their eyes and begged their sister-in-law to take the remaining half of the bowl to feed their new companions, the two little wolf dogs.

Pucao's principle is that as long as it does not involve morality, the two children should try their best to meet any requirements, and only hope that they can have a happy and memorable childhood. So, after being told a few words about the preciousness of food and not making an example, the two children happily ran to the corner of the house to feed the puppy.

Zhang Gui watched the egg custard enter the beast's mouth, and he was very unhappy in his heart, and his eyebrows jumped rapidly a few times before he opened his mouth to shake a few words of the sage. I didn't want to do it at this time, but outside the courtyard, a villager stumbled in and shouted, "What about the child, what about the child?" Let him go back to the old house, his father and mother will drink the brine! ”

Chunni's hand was relieved, and the rice bowl fell to the ground with a "clang". She lifted her skirt and ran to the back garden to report the news, and soon the couple ran to Liu's house with pale faces.

There are already dozens of people gathered in the main room of the Liu family at this time, and those who help pat their backs and change the water are all so busy that their feet touch the ground, and their faces are complicated and indescribable.

Li Zheng tightly squeezed the cigarette pouch and pot in his hand, turning around all over the ground, and finally saw Liu Housheng arrive, and immediately stepped forward and pulled him and said, "Don't worry, your father and mother can't think of drinking brine for a while." Fortunately, I didn't drink much, and the people in the village found out that it was early, and I just brought back the pulp from the tofu factory at the head of the village and poured it in. ”

Chunni heard this, and as soon as the breath that was held high in her heart was loosened, her legs were so weak that she sat on the ground. Just now, her mind was like thunder, and she thought about everything in a mess. His in-laws are 110,000 no, that is also elders, if they are really recruited to the underworld by the king of Hades this time, not to mention that they will have a child for a lifetime, even the rumors in ten miles and eight villages can suppress their husbands and wives never want to raise their heads again, and in the future, when the children in the family get married, the sons will inevitably be affected.

Liu Housheng turned his head and saw that although the face of his father and mother who was half-lying on the kang was pale, his chest was slightly undulating, and he also breathed a long sigh of relief, and reached out to help Chunni sit on the chair next to him.

Li Zheng remembered that the people of the poplar tree were going to come to the door to make trouble again for a while, so he frowned and persuaded, "Shengzi, no matter how wrong your father and mother are, now that the trouble has reached this point, you can't leave it alone." Let's find a way to send all the outsiders away first. ”

Chunni also relieved herself at this time, and when she heard Li Zheng's instructions, she hurriedly told Pu Cao how to deal with it last night, Li Zheng stroked her beard and kept nodding, "Pu Cao's words make sense, I'll talk to him when Zhu Sangui comes to the door later." After all, this is not a glorious thing, and it is good for the reputation of the two villages if they cover up the past. It's just that... I'm afraid I can't speak there. ”

Liu Housheng looked at Chunni and his mouth moved, but he still didn't speak. Chunni guessed that he was going to use his own deposit, and he was afraid that she would be reluctant. But how can she be stingy at such a time, she tried her best to endure her distress and said, "Master, I'll go back and get the ten taels of silver, Shopkeeper Sun hurried back to his hometown, maybe it was very easy to return the deed paper." ”

Liu Housheng saw that his daughter-in-law was so reasonable, and his eyes were red with gratitude, but because everyone was present, he didn't say anything, so he just nodded vigorously.

Everyone in the house lives in the same village, and they know best how the old couple of the Liu family treat this son and daughter-in-law on weekdays. Now that they are acting like this, they all sigh in their hearts, what a good bamboo shoot! The old couple of the Liu family are the worst in dealing with people, but they gave birth to a good son and married a good daughter-in-law...

When the shopkeeper Sun got up early and heard that such a major event had happened to the Liu family, he felt that the deed paper in his hand immediately became a hot potato. If the Liu family goes to the government to sue him for dying of death, not to mention whether he can get out in the end, it will cost dozens of taels of silver to beat the government up and down. He regretted it in his heart, knowing that this would be the result, he would rather throw away the deed paper than collect the debt.

When he was feeling remorseful, Liu Housheng came to the door with seven or eight villagers hulala. Shopkeeper Sun was shocked, and before Liu Housheng could speak, he immediately stuffed the deed paper, and said almost as if he was begging, "Brother Liu, I didn't force your father and mother to take their lives to pay off the debt.1 Since your second brother ran away, I don't want this money, I'll hurry back to my hometown, we will meet indefinitely!" ”

When he had finished speaking, he shouted to the coachman to come out, and the two of them picked up their luggage and drove the carriage out of the village.

Liu Housheng originally planned to say a few more good words, and begged the shopkeeper Sun to raise his noble hand to reduce the silver taels, but he didn't expect to get the deed paper back without using half a penny, which was simply too unexpected for him. He was stunned for a long time before rushing back to talk to Li Zheng and the others, and everyone was naturally happy for their husband and wife. After all, it is not easy for the peasant family to save silver, and ten taels of silver can buy a good dowry for their daughter, so what is it good to save it.

Not long after Shopkeeper Sun left, the people of Yangshu Village came to the door again. The people of Nangou Village are naturally reluctant to give them a good face, and those descendants were eager to try before, eager to fight, and then heard that the old couple of the Liu family were almost forced to die, and immediately wilted, as well-behaved as a little kitten.

Old man Zhu is also extremely weak-hearted, his eyes are wandering, thinking about how he can lead the descendants to get out if the two villages make a move for a while, after all, this is the territory of Nangou Village, they have lost their foothold, where can they still win.

Chen Lizheng is also a skillful person, and he took advantage of the incident to severely reprimand the old man Zhu for a few words, and finally proposed to marry the two villages as if he was gracious. Old man Zhu was overjoyed when he heard this, and he was willing to do this best of both worlds.

So, the two immediately agreed that tomorrow the Liu family would send a simple dowry to the Sun family, and they exchanged Geng posts with each other, and this family affair was completed. In the future, if outsiders gossip, it will be difficult to cover up this family matter.

Since then, the Liu family's disaster has been resolved, and the villagers have helped clean up the courtyard and the courtyard and dispersed.

Liu Housheng stood on the ground with Chunni, and when he saw the eyelids of the old couple lying on the kang twitching slightly, he guessed that they had woken up. Even though he complained and resented in his heart, he still couldn't speak ill of his father and mother who had just picked up his life, and finally he could only sigh and say coldly, "The big disaster in the family has been dealt with, and my father and mother don't have to look for death and life." In the next few days, I will bring food over, and when my father and mother are well, our two families will walk around as ordinary villagers. As a Son of Man, I have done my duty..."

After he finished speaking, he pulled Chunni out of the house, leaving the old couple of the Liu family silent for a long time, and big tears fell from the corners of their eyes.

Seeing the truth when they are in trouble, what did they be blinded by before, why can't they see the goodness of the eldest child? Now that he has gone through the life and death crisis, he has finally woken up completely, but he found that the blood and family relationship has been ruined by them. It's a pity that there are all kinds of medicines in the world, but there are no regret medicines...

Children, children, don't worry, it's the New Year after Laba! Paste Spring Festival couplets, set off firecrackers, wear new clothes, wear new hats! Rejoice, the New Year is here!

Winter villages are mostly quiet, and the north wind howling from time to time resembles the most tricky thief, but if it is targeted, even the thickest cotton jacket will be drilled through until all the warmth is stolen. Therefore, except for the occasional children who dodge the nagging of adults and run out of the house to play wildly for a while, there are very few people walking around the streets.

However, this situation was completely broken as soon as Laba passed. The villagers who are happy that the New Year is approaching are busy buying all kinds of New Year goods, and the young students are rushing to find large and small fishing nets, iron hammers, and wicker baskets, preparing to go to the river to fish together, and also add good dishes to their Chinese New Year's Eve dinner table.

The women are busy washing and dismantling quilts, cleaning various houses, steaming bean buns, jujube steamed buns, and if they have a more prosperous life, they also have to make new jackets for children and the elderly, and take fried dried fruits and meatballs, which are also in full swing and do not touch the ground.

On this day, the men of the village gathered at Lizheng's house to discuss the matter of going to hunt winter fish tomorrow. The children like to join in the fun, and Shanzi even smiled and pulled Liu Housheng's hand early, and took a group of naughty boys to listen to the novelty. Chunni took Peach Blossom to look at the vegetable shed, and the remaining Pucao and Magpie servants sat in the hall and wrapped the bean bags.

The sticky bud grains sent by Mrs. Li in the autumn have been fermented and ground into pulp juice for a long time, and after the moisture is controlled, they become pieces of golden sticky rice noodles. Wait until it is kneaded into long strips, knead a small ball and press it into a round cake, put a red bean paste in the middle, wrap it tightly and pinch it to become a small and round sticky bean bag.

The magpie has become accustomed to living these days, and has figured out the temper of the master, and feels more and more comfortable. While she was talking to Pu Cao about interesting things in the city, her subordinates wrapped them quickly and well.

Soon, the two of them filled the curtain made of straw, and the grass was picked up and sent to the upper drawer of the stove to be steamed. Fang Jie was walking around the courtyard next door with his hands behind his back, looking at the door of Zhang's house from time to time, and finally looked forward to the woman he loved coming out, his narrow eyes immediately bent up, and he shouted in a low voice, "What are you busy with, you haven't come out for so long?" ”

Pu Cao listened angrily and funny, this person just excused the bean sprouts half a month ago, and it was too troublesome to get the luck back and forth, so he persuaded the brothers and sisters-in-law of the Li family to move the bean sprouts workshop directly to the backyard of Baiyunju. And he then said that the city was boring, and the grateful Chunni and his wife naturally immediately invited him to live in their empty house.

So, they have to see each other several times a day for half a month, and of course she takes care of his three meals a day.

"You should be as idle as you, I'm busy buying food and preparing for the New Year. The day after tomorrow is the twenty-third year of the lunar month, why don't you go back to the city to preside over the sacrificial stove? Even in the restaurant, it's time to take inventory and give out red envelopes, right? ”

Fang Jie shook the fan in his hand and smiled nonchalantly, "There are slaves and maids in the family, if you use my master, it will be useless to keep them." There is a Luo shopkeeper in the restaurant, and there is no need for me, the owner, to take stock of the accounts himself. ”

(I'm frantically drinking brain tonic fluid, haha, everyone is waiting for me to break out on the day of the PK match!) Group hugs! ）
