It was Mei Xiaoque, who heard Mrs. Li say this, and hurriedly stood up and confessed: "Mother, where do we dislike my little sister!" The little sister can make money, naturally it is the little sister's, we have no ability to be brothers and sisters-in-law, we can't let the little sister live a good life, where is the face stained with the light of the little sister? Raising children to prevent old age, where can I rely on my little sister? Where does this make us brothers and sisters-in-law have the face to go out? ”

Zhou's eyes were anxious when he heard it, he is a man, he is obedient and can't listen, where is his mother-in-law talking about pension? This is the idea of beating yourself and the man, so that you don't beat the money that your sister-in-law makes.

With her mother-in-law's partiality, can she let her sister-in-law provide for her in old age? It's good not to search for your own sister-in-law!

If this is a few more words of mother-in-law crying, Zhou is worried that his man is only afraid of saying things that he can't bear the consequences.

I don't care about anything else, I have to distinguish two sentences when I stand up.

As soon as Mei Xiaotong saw Zhou's face, she knew what she was going to say.

also knew that if the Zhou family opened his mouth, with Mrs. Li's temperament, she would definitely not give up easily, but she was afraid that the family would be noisy.

Hurriedly stood up, stopped in front of Zhou's and spoke: "Mother, after a day of walking on the mountain road, I am tired and panicked." I want to eat the braised pork made by my mother at night, and the third sister-in-law can't make the taste of my mother's cooking, mother, you feel sorry for me, make it for me again! ”

When Mrs. Li heard the old girl praise her craftsmanship like this, her heart was sweeter than drinking honey, and it was a big deal for her daughter to eat meat, and she would have a chance in the future if she cleaned up her son and daughter-in-law.

glanced at Zhou, received the silver and copper coins into the cabinet and locked them, and went to the stove house happily.

In the past few days that she has become Mei Xiaotong, she has already felt the undercurrent under the peaceful days of the Mei family.

Tianlong and Tianhu want to get married, and Zhou, as a mother, has to plan for her son, so she naturally has to conflict with Mrs. Li.

Mei Xiaoque, the eldest brother, didn't play a good role in it, he only knew that he was pressing his wife and children and being filial to his mother, and now it looks okay, but I'm afraid that if the days go a little longer, the contradictions and conflicts will not be suppressed.

Mei Zhongzhong, as the head of the family, did not take half of the responsibility, allowing the old wife to be the master, and only consistently and muddy.

Wen looks weak, but he also has a plan in his heart.

There is also the second brother's family who has never come back in the county, the third brother who is still wandering outside without a hurry after marrying a wife, and the fourth brother who has been working as an apprentice outside and has not returned home in the past few days.

When you think about it, it's just a mess.

It's so panicked!

Speaking of which, the family is still poor and has no money to make trouble.

Thinking about it like this, Mei Xiaotong couldn't sit still, got up and went to the firewood room to see the jade mushrooms she cultivated, since the jade mushrooms can be sold at a good price, now she can only count on this first.

The mushroom cultivation bed that was set up didn't seem to have any movement, Mei Xiaotong lifted the leaves, and carefully observed it for a long time, only to see that there seemed to be two more white mycelium.

Breathe a sigh of relief.

She is now counting on harvesting a batch of jade mushrooms before the date mentioned by Shopkeeper Zheng.

At that time, when she heard the words of An Huahao and the shopkeeper Zheng, she guessed that the shopkeeper Zheng might have to collect all kinds of rare ingredients for the birthday of a big man or something, this kind of opportunity is hard to come by, if she can, she can take this opportunity to save the first pot of gold for herself first.

No matter what time you have, if you have money in your hand, you don't panic.

Mei Xiaotong was still thinking in the firewood room, when an unfamiliar voice suddenly came from outside: "Dad, mother, I'm back!" ”

Let's say, after An Huahao came out of the restaurant, he touched the money he had just sold in his pocket, walked to the medicine hall in the town familiarly, and grabbed a few medicines.

There are only a dozen big bucks left.

There is no way, his mother Song is weak, and it is said that she was not very good when she gave birth to him, so many years, she relied on medicine to hang her life.

Everything else in this medicine is okay, except for ginseng, which is the most expensive, and good ginseng is not available at all in the small town of Shiqiao, and it is already good to be able to get together a few ginseng whiskers for several years.

That's it, all of them have been drained.

He also thought about going into the mountains, if he was lucky, he could find a ginseng tree that was not a hundred years, but a few decades, and that mother's body might be able to get better.

Maybe it's his bad luck, where is this good medicinal material so easy to be encountered, ginseng was not picked, but he has practiced a hunting skill, every time he enters the mountain, he has never been empty, and he can hunt some game, but he can also supplement the family.

Looking at the remaining dozen or so big money, An Huahao didn't move his brows, and went to buy some salt, and there was not much money left in his hand.

From the time he got up in the morning until now, he had not touched his teeth, and the adult man consumed a lot, and at this moment he could hear his belly beating like a drum.

Looking at the food stall on the corner of the street, An Huahao hesitated, strode over, bought two Erhe noodles, and ate in three or two.

The owner of the steamed bun seller also provided clean well water, and he drank several bowls in one go, and finally his stomach was not so uncomfortable.

Looking at the sky, it was not early, and it would be meaningless for him to delay any longer.

He is not an ordinary villager, he dares to walk dozens of miles of mountain roads only when he is together, he is used to being alone in the mountains on weekdays, so he is naturally not afraid.

What's more, he is also worried about the sick and weak old lady at home, because of Mei Xiaotong's matter today, he will be delayed for some time, and if it is late, I am afraid that the old lady in the family will be worried.

I will rush home with my feet plucked.

When I turned around, I was faced by the façade of a bookstore.

His eyes couldn't help but dim a little, something rolled in the depths of his pupils, and after hesitating, An Huahao seemed to have made up his mind, tidied up his clothes, and then walked into the bookstore.

After a long time, he walked out of the bookstore, although his expression was still calm, but there was excitement in his eyes that could not be concealed.

This delay is later than returning home in the past.

Hurried all the way, halfway back, I caught up with the villagers who also returned to Lingshan Village, and you could see from a distance that everyone surrounded Mei Xiaotong and Mrs. Li in the middle, and a few words could vaguely float in: "...... Blessed...... Mushroom...... Teach us ......" and things like that.

An Huahao couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth, thinking about it, everyone knows about the Mei family's sale of jade mushrooms.

recalled Mei Xiaotong's performance in the restaurant, he never knew, he only knew that Mei Xiaotong, who was obsessed with him, still had such a side.

He thought he could help, but he didn't expect that with Mei Xiaotong's performance, even if he didn't have himself, he would be able to sell the jade mushroom smoothly, right?

Especially when she just hinted simply, Mei Xiaotong was able to understand what she meant quickly, and she cooperated quite tacitly.

Even the shopkeeper Zheng saw it, and when he finally gave the money, he joked that it was to see his face.

Thinking of this, An Huahao's heart jumped, and his legs and feet involuntarily slowed down.

Not far away, they followed behind the crowd, until they reached the entrance of the village, and saw the boys of the Mei family cheering up to greet them.

Everyone scattered and went home, and then he lowered his eyes and buried his head and walked home.

An Huahao's home, on the periphery of Lingshan Village, is very remote, not far from the foot of the mountain, and there are no people nearby, a few lonely thatched houses.

In Lingshan Village, there are several big surnames, the Mei family, the An family, and the Li family.

Except for these three families, other surnames are not as powerful as these three families.

Among these three, especially the Mei family has the most men and the most powerful, followed by the Song and Li families.

It stands to reason that An Huahao is also an family, so he will not be assigned to such a homestead in such a remote location, which is located on the periphery, not far from the foot of the mountain, although in recent years there have been no fierce beasts coming down the mountain to harass the village.

But after all, it is far away from the center of the village, and there are no neighbors around, so no one knows anything if anything happens.

When he was assigned to this position, An Huahao's mother, Song Chunhua, also asked him to go to the patriarch and ask for a position closer to his mother's house.

It is said that Song Chunhua and the patriarch are also close, and the patriarch is Song Chunhua's cousin, so close relatives, it is natural to divide a better location.

An Huahao is not good to tell his mother, who is weak by nature, soft-eared, and doesn't understand anything, that it is the patriarch's intention to divide their mother and son here.

Why bother to beg for favors?

Fortunately, although Song's mother has soft ears and doesn't know the world, she also has a benefit, her son is the master, so she won't say anything.

An Huahao is actually satisfied with this arrangement, far away from Song's mother's maiden home and his maternal grandfather's house, and his mother's ears are also quieter.

Lest those relatives come to the door all day long and say some insinuations, Song's mother is already sentimental and soft-natured, and she doesn't know how to refute what she says, she will only hide and cry for decades.

Others say that the mother is strong, but Song Chunhua has been so soft all her life, she listened to her father and mother when she was a girl, and later became a slave and listened to the master's family, and later, when she had a son, she listened to her son, and she didn't have any idea of her own.

An Huahao had just walked outside the courtyard when he heard the familiar loud voice inside, frowning in disgust.

"I said, old sister, why are you so useless, just let Hua Hao's child withdraw from the marriage? It's all said, marriage and marrying this kind of thing, you must listen to you, the mother, you are good, such a good family business, you actually let Hua Hao's child be dismissed ignorantly? In the future, where do you go to find such a good place to go? It's not that I'm talking about you, old sister, at this time you should put out the money to be a mother, how can you listen to Hua Hao for everything--"

"Second sister, but Hua Hao doesn't agree, and I can't help it--" This cowardly defense voice is Song Mu, who was weak and short of breath when she heard it, and was suppressed to death.

"Phew! He crawled out of your intestines, if you dare not listen, you will whip him with a big-eared scraper, and if you don't listen, you will go to the patriarch to accuse him of disobedience, and see if he listens? You have such a soft temperament, you can't even hold your own son, if you marry a powerful daughter-in-law in the future, what do I think you will do? ”

"Second sister, Hua Hao is very filial to me, I ...... I can't sue him......"

……

When An Huahao heard this, his eyebrows jumped, and he pushed the door open.

In the hall, Song Chunhua and her second sister Song Chunye were sitting opposite each other, Song Chunhua was sitting like an angry little daughter-in-law, and Song Chunye was sitting on the top with a big golden knife, drinking tea and sipping melon seeds.

There were already melon seed shells on the ground around him, and there were still two pieces on his lips.

Seeing An Huahao enter the house, Song Chunye's voice stopped abruptly, and he smiled unnaturally: "Hua Hao is back, he sold a lot of money in the market today, right?" Oh, what a filial child, I grabbed tonic for your mother again, did you buy anything else? ”
