Mrs. Liu was usually counted down by the villagers behind her back, she was stingy and crooked, and now that the money is in hand, the family is about to set up a vegetable shed, and she can't wait to decorate it in a basket when she sees the white silver in a basket, where can she bear it, she naturally must show a few words.

So her wrinkled old face was raised, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she replied proudly, "My family didn't toss anything, but I just planned to grow some vegetables to make some money, and wait for the spring to build a big tile house for the second child of my family to marry a good daughter-in-law."

By the way, the muddy water will be moved tomorrow morning, so you can ask your old men to come over and help you. ”

Old man Liu's father and son also raised their heads and chested on the side, and echoed, "When the vegetables at home are grown, I will definitely not forget everyone's help, and I will definitely invite everyone to have a good drink when the time comes." ”

After speaking, the family of three carried the tin tube back to the yard.

When the neighbors first heard the word "grow vegetables", they thought they had something wrong with their ears. When they found that they were both suspicious, they immediately blew up the pot, and the hornets buzzed out of the nest.

This exclaimed, "Is this Aunt Liu crazy, how can there be a big winter to break ground and muddy water?" ”

The other one also shouted, "Even if the muddy water is good, that vegetable is not easy to grow." If it were that easy, someone would have gotten rich long ago. ”

A little daughter-in-law in the crowd who was more active-minded didn't know what she thought, her face was very bad, and she endured it for a long time and finally threw out a sentence in a low voice, "How do you know that the Liu family doesn't know how to grow vegetables?" Isn't there only one son in his family? ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then they were shocked. No wonder the Liu family grows vegetables with such fanfare, they must have heard the secret method of growing vegetables from Da'er.

It is said that there is no father and son who really hate in the world, and the bloodline is something that is connected to broken bones, how could Liu Housheng completely cut off contact with them because his father and mother came to the door to quarrel a few times.

Thinking about it in the shadows, maybe this Liu Housheng was attentive from the beginning, helping the Zhang family grow vegetables on the surface, and secretly learning the secret method behind his back. After all, helping the Zhang family to do work, no matter how high the salary is, it is not as good as growing vegetables at home?

The more everyone thought about it, the more angry they became, and everyone frowned and gritted their teeth. There is a person who usually gets along well with Liu Housheng and thinks about it and opens his mouth to help defend a few words, "Shengzi is not a treacherous person who hides his heart, something may have gone wrong in this matter." ”

As a result, as soon as these words came out, he was immediately refuted by a group of women, "I know the face but I don't know the heart, you climbed into his stomach and saw that his heart and liver are black and red?" ”

"That's it, the silver of white flowers is placed in front of you, who doesn't covet it."

"Okay, let's plant vegetables together next year, and the Liu family will do it first. What if they spread the word about growing vegetables again..."

"Oh," the women were talking about it, but it reminded the men that Liu Housheng's mother-in-law had been living in Liu's house for the past few days, and if she also went to study the secret and brought it back to Lijia Village...

The men glanced at each other, and they all raised their legs and ran to Lizheng's house, while the women also scattered in a hurry, and the whole village went to drop "bombshells".

Pucao got up in the morning and washed a few clothes for the two children, and cleaned up the inside and outside of the house. originally wanted to go to Chunni's house, but I didn't feel good about interrupting the gossip of other mothers and daughters, so I picked a plate of meat buns and sent it to Chen's house.

The Chen family has recently made money from small business, and they have a lot of money. The day before yesterday, Chen's second sister-in-law bought a few pieces of fabric when she entered the city, and planned to wear a new cotton jacket for the Chinese New Year.

Aunt Chen's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law with two children were smiling and pulling the fabric around, and when they saw Pu Cao coming to the door, they happily pulled her to her, and said with a smile, "Pu Cao, look at it, what a good material this is." ”

Pu Cao saw that the color of the fabric was positive, soft to the touch, and she praised it, "My second sister-in-law is getting better and better at buying things, and this material is really good." ”

Second sister-in-law Chen's face turned into a flower with a smile on her face, but her mouth was modest, "It's all the shops that Dongzi helped to find, and the goods are good and cheap." ”

Everyone laughed, carefully picked up cloth, cotton and other miscellaneous items and sat down to gossip. Fat Dun'er and Fu'er saw the meat buns on the plate, and they were so greedy that they bit their fingers but didn't dare to say anything with a red face.

Aunt Chen felt sorry for her children and grandchildren, so she quickly took two points for them, and said with a smile, "You have to be good to your aunt when you grow up, and your aunt can't leave you with a good bite." ”

The two children smiled and sat next to their aunt, biting on the bun and eating with oil dripping down the corners of their mouths.

The two families were talking about business and interesting things in the city, and it was the time when it was lively, when they suddenly heard Chunni shouting outside, "Pucao, Pucao, are you in the house?" ”

Aunt Chen joked, "This Chun Nier is about to grow on the grass, and it won't be possible to see it for a while." ”

She opened the door as she said this, but Chunni ran in with an angry face, and when she saw Pu Cao, she grabbed her arm and shouted, "Pu Cao, what can I do about this?" I said that the last time they went to the vegetable shed, they were just trying to steal the teacher..."

Everyone in the Chen family looked at each other, and they were all confused. Pu Cao guessed a rough idea, and was about to open her mouth to comfort her, but Mrs. Li also chased after her with a sigh of relief, and scolded loudly, "This stupid girl runs like a rabbit, and she is tired of my old bones." ”

Pu Cao hurriedly helped the old lady to sit on the edge of the kang, and introduced the Chen family with a smile, "This is the old lady of Nizi's family, and I got the news yesterday to see my daughter." ”

Aunt Chen is a hospitable and enthusiastic temperament, and she stepped forward and pulled Mrs. Li's hand and said, "Congratulations to the old girl for being a grandmother." ”

Mrs. Li hurriedly brushed the broken hair on her sideburns, and said with a very embarrassed smile, "This sudden break made the old sister laugh, my girl is too memoryless, and her body is still running fast..."

"That's it, that's it, these young daughters-in-law need to take more care of them, and they are all frizzy..."

The two old ladies sat together and chatted lively, which made Chunni anxious and shouted, "Mother, this is not the time to talk about this gossip." The Liu family Zhang Luo used muddy water to build a vegetable shed, and the people in the village said that my son stole the method of pampas grass, and my son was not that person! Obviously, it was the last time that those two old immortals secretly ran to the vegetable shed..."

Pu Cao tugged at Chunni's sleeve and signaled her not to speak ill of her in-laws. Chunni was so angry that she lay on Pucao's shoulder and cried.

Mrs. Li felt sorry for her daughter's anxiety, and guessed that Pucao must be prepared for this matter, so she got up and said goodbye to Aunt Chen, "Old sister, this girl is not worried, I will take her back to persuade her, I will stay for a few more days, keep it and come over to have a good chat with the old sister." ”

"Okay, okay." Aunt Chen responded with a full mouth, and went to persuade Chunni again, "Don't worry, Nizi, the villagers all know the two of you as people, if there is any misunderstanding, just say two sentences." ”

Chen's sister-in-law and sister-in-law also followed to persuade a few mouthfuls, and then sent the three of Pucao out.

When she got into her yard, Pu Cao immediately led Chun Ni and her mother into the inner room, and whispered, "Auntie, Nizi, I already knew that the Liu family was going to grow vegetables, don't worry." ”

"You already know how not to stop it?" Chunni's eyes widened in shock, and she said hatefully, "Are you afraid that it will be difficult for me and Shengzi to be caught in the middle, so you didn't speak?" ”

Pu Cao reached out to pinch Chunni's eyelids and joked with a grin, "You can stare lightly, be careful that your eyeballs fall out." ”

"When is it all right, you still say this." Chunni slapped her hand away and stomped her foot in a hurry.

Pu Cao wrinkled her nose and rubbed the back of her hand, stepped forward and hugged Aunt Li's arm and said with a smile, "Don't worry, how can I let go of the wealth of our two families when this kind of dish is dish?" The Liu family can't keep this vegetable and grow it, and they have to lose all the money they put in. ”

Aunt Li squinted and pondered for a long time, and said with a smile, "No wonder last time you asked Auntie to go to Liu's house to talk big, it turned out to be to attract them to grow vegetables and lose money." ”

Pu Cao smiled and nodded, "They always come to the door to bully Nizi, open their mouths and close their mouths of silver, so they simply let their silver be wasted." ”

Aunt Li also laughed, pointed at her head and sighed, "My mother has your protection, and Auntie won't have anything to worry about in the future." ”

Chunni's eyes were full of question marks when she heard this, and she stepped forward and pulled the other half of her mother's sleeve and asked, "What are you talking about?" Do you know it, mother, so you hide it from me? ”

Mrs. Li glared at the stupid girl, whispered a few words in her ear, and finally instructed, "Don't tell your family about having children." ”

Chunni was so happy that the corners of her mouth reached the root of her ears, and she replied in a loud voice, "I'm not stupid, so I won't say it." ”

Mrs. Li and Pu Cao responded in unison, "You're not stupid, who is stupid." ”

The three of them all giggled, and Chunni got up and pulled the old lady when she was exhausted, and said, "Mother, let's go and talk to Shengzi, if he hears about this from others, he won't be angry." ”

Pu Cao also said, "Go ahead and tell Brother Liu that I believe in him." ”

Chunni happily answered and helped the old lady to leave, Pucao went to the warehouse to pick up a bud grain stick and was about to pick up the grains to feed the chickens and geese, when she heard someone laughing outside the courtyard gate, "Pucao is at home." ”

Pu Cao turned her head to take a look, and saw that the lady was standing outside the door panel with a smile, and the flower turban on her head was blown away by the north wind. She hurriedly stepped forward to open the door and beckoned, "Auntie, come in quickly, it's rare for you to come and sit with me." ”

"On a big winter day, I don't bother to go out and blow the wind. Aren't you a girl who is honest at home, and I haven't seen you go out for a walk? ”

The two laughed and pulled hands into the house, and Pucao poured hot tea and snacks, and was busy.

Lizheng Niangzi pursed her lips and thought about it, then stretched out her hand to greet her, "Pucao, don't be busy, come and sit with your aunt, your aunt has something to ask today." ”

Pu Cao stepped forward and pushed the snack box to the middle of the table, and said with a smile, "What does my aunt want to ask?" But Peach Blossom got into trouble with you? ”

Mrs. Lizheng shook her head, hesitated slightly, then took her hand and said, "Pucao, my aunt likes you to be kind and diligent on weekdays, so I haven't treated you as an outsider in my heart, and I don't want to go around with you when I have something." Just now, my family went to a lot of villagers, saying that Liu Housheng learned from you how to grow vegetables and taught his father and mother, and the Liu family is about to start a vegetable shed.

The villagers are all angry and shouting for your uncle and elders to call the shots. I'm afraid you'll be reprimanded again if you're called over, so I'll take this errand and ask first. If you have any grievances, just tell your aunt about it. ”
