Chapter 79: Disaster from the Sky
"Mother, sister, no one wants the bean dregs of the old man's house in the west of the village, and he is about to pour into the river, should we?" Du Ying ran all the way home and said breathlessly.
The three Du Ying sisters are out every day, their eyes are full of ducks to eat, and they want to take home and feed the ducks when they see anything.
In the winter when there is a shortage of vegetables, the Qiao women often buy some bean dregs and fry them with oil and salt.
In the spring, there are many vegetables in the field, and the wild vegetables are also abundant, such as Malan head, wolfberry head, toon head, chrysanthemum brain, as long as it is warm for three or two days, it will grow wildly, if it rains, you can also go to the mountains to pick up mushrooms and ground vegetables for a change of taste, so the bean dregs will be unattended.
"Okara?" Du Mei and Xu Shi glanced at each other.
Du Mei took medicine and needles, drank pheasant soup, and her body was very good, but she was still a little weak, and Xu only let her raise it at home, and she was not allowed to go out to work.
"Yes!" Du Mei dropped the embroidery shed in his hand, his face full of joy.
"Then I'll go tell the old man, he's still waiting for a reply." Du Ying turned around and was about to leave.
"I'll go with you to take a look, you can't ask for anything that isn't fresh, don't eat the duck." Du Mei stood up.
"Meizi, you can't go!" Xu was afraid that she would go out and catch the wind again.
"Mother, I'm already fine, I can't do it if I don't move." Du Mei said as she pulled Du Ying and left.
"Oh, you kid, come back soon when you're done." Xu watched the two sisters go out of the yard, and she followed behind and nagged.
Xu was about to close the courtyard door, and Zhou came out of nowhere, and suddenly flashed in front of her. In the crook of her arm, there was a water-green dress that she wore in spring and autumn.
"What are you doing here?" Xu subconsciously took a half step back.
"Brother and sister, I'm sorry for you." Zhou said a little shyly.
"What's the matter?" Xu Shi looked at her warily.
"Hey, that's the ......" Zhou said as he squeezed his wide body into the courtyard.
"Tell me something here!" Where can the thin Xu family pull the Zhou family?
"I said brother and sister, we've been under one roof for more than ten years, why, I can't sit with you?" Zhou sat in the second room with a big grin, looking around and picking on the other.
"Sister-in-law, if you have something, just say it." Xu's heart is unstable, this woman is not as usual.
"That's right, a few days ago, Hao Po told Du Xuan that she was a girl, and after Qingming, she would come to the house to see each other.
No, I just made a decent dress for Du Shu, but I'm clumsy, and I want to trouble my brother and sister to embroider a flower or something, and it's also more glamorous, you can take a look. Zhou handed the clothes to Xu.
Xu had no choice but to take it, unfold the clothes and look at them, thinking about what silk threads to match and what patterns to embroider.
Zhou looked at Xu's embroidery on the side, and knocked the needlework on the ground with his hands and feet.
"Oops." Zhou hurriedly bent down to pick it up.
"Sister-in-law, I'll come, I'll come." Xu hurriedly threw away his clothes and lowered his head to pick them up. These silk threads are squeamish, stained with dust, the color is not fresh, and it is not convenient to wash.
The more Zhou helped, the taller she was, picked up one, and kicked the other silk ball so that she couldn't find a shadow.
After tossing for a long time, looking at a table of dusty threads, Xu's heart was very unhappy, but he was still on fire.
"I'm sorry, brother and sister, here you go
I'm sorry for the trouble, I think it's over, Du Shu didn't have to wear embroidered clothes, and I left. Zhou picked up the clothes on the table and left with a gust of wind.
Xu Shi looked at her back and was stunned, did this woman come to make trouble with her intentionally?
After the Xu family finally dusted off the silk threads one by one, Du Mei and Du Ying sisters came back with a smile.
"Mother, I have already told the old man that he will leave us every day's bean dregs in the future. I didn't want it before it was not fresh, Aunt Fang's family raised pigs, so they were all given to her family. Du Mei smiled and said that she was really a rushing life, and she went out for a run, which was more energetic than being bored at home.
"Also, he doesn't want our money!" Du Ying admires the eldest sister the most, the family's money has always been tight, and they all rely on their mother's embroidery for money, so they tried everything to break a copper coin into a three-petal flower.
"And what does he want?" Xu asked nervously, how can there be so many pie-in-the-sky good things in this world!
"It's not that he doesn't know how to cook, so he wants us to help cook a meal when he goes out to sell tofu, just take care of it for a day." Du Ying said with a smile.
"Is this okay? Will it be gossipy? Xu paid special attention to the discussion of the second room outside, she was a widow, not to mention, the reputation of the four daughters was the most important.
"What's wrong with that? He went out early in the morning and would not come back until noon, and we were so quick with our hands and feet that we couldn't even meet each other every day, so there was nothing to gossip about. Du Mei had already calculated it in his heart.
"Okay, you go two people a day, there is a foil, don't be alone." The human heart is sinister, and Xu tried his best to think carefully.
At the dinner table, it was warm. The duck has one more source of food, and Du Mei is also well, just waiting for the weather to be clear, and he can throw off his arms and do things. A good day seems to be beckoning to the second room.
Two days later, Pan You'an, who was dressed in new clothes, actually went to the door of Du Shicheng with a big gift.
"What are you doing here, cousin? That's so kind. Wei's mouth was polite, but his hands were not idle, and he took the gift directly.
"Auntie, I won't tell you, I don't want to go back to Qingzhou since I hit Sheshan Town. This is really the root of the imperial city, rich and auspicious. Pan You'an ran with his mouth and boasted.
"Then what is it, as the old saying goes, the golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as your own kennel, not to mention that you are still a rich family." Wei brought him tea.
"So, I'm going to move my family business with me, find some competent people to help me, and settle down here." Pan You'an said it as if it was true.
"Then ......, has anyone chosen one?" Wei's little abacus in his heart clanged.
"In front of the eyes, isn't it ready-made, his third uncle is now a showman, and he can always help me take care of the accounts, aren't my brother-in-law and three nephews just the human hands? Of course, it is with your own family, the most assured! "Lies, Pan You'an came as soon as he opened his mouth, without blinking his eyelids.
"That relationship is good, this family is harmonious and wealthy, and the fat and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders!" Wei smiled from ear to ear.
"But no, auntie, if you have fulfilled this beautiful deed, you will really be a family." Pan You'an saw that the fish had bitten the hook, so he sold the guanzi.
"What's the matter? What's the matter, my aunt should be you! Wei was so happy that he didn't think about it, so he agreed.
"Mother!" Pan Youan suddenly lifted his clothes and knelt down.
"Huh, huh, what did you say?" Wei Shi was startled and hurriedly pulled up.
"Auntie, listen to me, although I have a lot of money in Qingzhou, but my parents died early, the last time I saw you, I felt like I saw my mother
The same. Pan Youan squeezed out two tears and hung them in the corners of his eyes.
"Oh, how can I have such a good fortune to accept you as my godson." Wei's heart is beautiful, seeing that someone sent her Wanguan furniture.
"Please also ask my mother to fulfill me and Xu's family, I will be a cow and a horse to honor you." Pan Youan bowed down and kowtowed.
"Xu? The second one's family? Wei was like five thunderbolts, frightened by Pan You'an's words.
"Exactly!" Pan Youan said with a pair of hooking eyes.
"Get out, cough cough, slut!" Du Shicheng roared.
He has been getting more and more eccentric lately, and is often reluctant to meet people. I had just been lying in the inner room, and after listening to Pan Youan's bastard words, I was so angry that I coughed again.
"Uncle and aunt, listen to me." Pan Youan saw that he couldn't be deceived, so he stood up.
"What do you have to say? You just saw my second daughter-in-law once, and you said such unreasonable things! You call her a widow's house, how will she live in the future! Wei Shi also felt very embarrassed, so he lowered his face and said.
"Uncle, I have already made a private agreement with the Xu family for life, and I came to propose marriage today, and I discussed it with her." Pan Youan looked like he swore to go to the soup for the red face.
"Nonsense, that day, she still refused to open the door to see you, and it has only been a few days, and she will be with you?" Wei was so angry that his face turned white.
"On that day, just for show, to cover your ears and eyes, you see, this is the object of her love to me, where is the fake?" Pan Youan took out a little goldfish handkerchief from his arms and handed it to Wei.
Wei's didn't sell Xu's embroidery for money, and she recognized her daughter-in-law's embroidery. Looking at the familiar stitches, Wei panicked.
"You...... You're so immoral! O my son! ......" Wei was sad from his heart, and he collapsed on the ground and cried two gold.
"Auntie, mother, I am your son, when we become relatives, we will definitely serve the second elder." Pan You'an screamed wildly, coaxing Wei indiscriminately.
In the house, Du Shicheng listened to Pan You'an's fornication, his heart was full of blood and blood, and his eyes were dark, and he could hold on to the table in the room, and he stabilized his mind, so that he did not fall down.
"You pickled villain, don't humiliate my Du family's innocent reputation here!" The old man, who valued his reputation more than his life, came out of the back room, pointed at Pan You'an with his finger, and said in a trembling voice.
"Uncle, since I received her love token, I naturally reciprocated the favor, and I also gave her a hairpin." Pan You'an said it well.
"Okay, okay, don't let go of this old face, I want to see how you hook up together!" Du Shicheng trembled not only in his voice, but also in his body like a dead leaf in the autumn wind.
Wei didn't cry anymore, got up and followed the old man to the second room, at this hour, when the villagers had breakfast and went down to the field, they heard Wei's voice and followed.
The Zhou family, who had a ghost in his heart, hid in the crowd, Dajin and his three sons didn't know why, and when they saw the old couple going straight to the second room with a disillusioned face, they also came.
"Open the door, open the door, you bitch!" Wei has never liked Xu, and she believes in her heart that she is having an affair with Pan You'an.
Du Mei and Du Ying went to the old man's house to cook, the two little ones also went out to dig wild vegetables, and the black girl went to shoot Wushan during the day, and there was only Xu in the family.
Seeing that Wei and Du Shicheng's faces were not good, and there was a group of villagers in Wuyang, Xu's heart jumped suddenly, and an ominous omen was like a dark cloud covering her head, this time I don't know what disaster will fall from the sky and hit the second room? 2k reading web
