Chapter 23: The Girl Riding a Pig
As soon as I walked to the head of the village, I saw smoke rising from all over Wufu Village.
It's a good time to harvest, and families don't go home until dark. But today is a good day for family reunions, and most of them have returned home early, waiting for the family reunion.
Zhou Yanci saw that everyone was rushing to harvest the rice, and the peanuts were picking, which was very interesting.
"For these two days, the sun is enough, and the grain is taken back and dried in the sun, and it will be bad if it rains." The old man under the big tree smoked a cigarette and gulped down the smoke.
In recent years, the wind and rain have been smooth, Wufu Village has a good life, and there are many elderly people, but they have also passed.
Except for those like the Zhou family, who gave birth to four sons in a row and did not have the help of their in-laws, most of them were able to eat well.
"Mother, this peanut is a rare thing, and it is valuable to sell it in the town. On weekdays, we want to eat, but you can't bear half of it. As soon as I got off the ox cart, I heard Wednesday Lang inside very surprised.
I saw that the peanuts that had just been pulled back from the ground were slowly boiled by Yang's in a large pot, and Zhou Lang grabbed two handfuls of them in his pocket while people were not paying attention.
"Yanyan, are you back? Come on, come on, the third brother has got something good today. The big one is eaten today, and the remaining two small ones are given to your sister to raise. Zhou Laosan grabbed his sister and went to the kitchen, only to see that there were three gray hares in the cage made of bamboo strips, the big one was fat and couldn't walk, and there were two small ones left.
"I won't kill the chicken at home, and my mother will make you a braised hare at night. By the way, why hasn't your fourth brother come back yet? It's getting dark. Yang looked out of the door, only to see Zhou Lao Er move the back basket down, but he didn't see the youngest son she was most proud of.
The youngest son is a scholar and has the best face. She also tried her best to give her son the greatest pomp.
"The fourth, those who read the books, said that they were going to recite poems to the moon and to come back on foot. Mother, don't worry about it, there are two catties of meat here, this is melon and fruit snacks. Zhou Lao Er put the things in the back room.
I didn't hear Yang's words of distress for the fourth child.
Today, he saw the little lady of the Cheng family again in the town, which made him fascinated.
"Hey, where's my wild boar." Zhou Yanci squatted on the ground and looked at the little rabbit, and said that he wanted to eat the rabbit and the wild boar......
Something is not quite right.
Hehe, what should be your words can't run......
Everyone says that they walk too much at night and hit ghosts, but it is the first time that they are hit by wild boars when they walk too much at night.
"This kid, which of his classmates is not at home, how can he go so far. This kid, you...... Second, you and the boss go pick it up. Bring something, it's pitch black, don't run into anything. As soon as Yang's words came out, Zhou Lao Er was unhappy.
"Mother, a group of big men go out, and it's the girl's family who is scared." Zhou Lao Er stared, a group of men still want someone to pick up?
"Well, you're all used to rough work. Fourth, they are afraid that the bowl has not been served. Yang didn't have any heart, so he said casually.
As everyone knows, Zhou Lao Er is becoming more and more dissatisfied in his heart.
Boss Zhou put down the heavy load of rice on his shoulders, and was covered with sweat before he had time to wipe it.
The honest man only feels that he has married a daughter-in-law and dragged down the family, and because of the daily soup and medicine money, he is extremely guilty of the family, and now he has to work hard at home every day.
Since Yang Zhao got married, the Zhou family's work has all gone.
Only Boss Zhou was working as a coolie in the town, and he had red marks on his shoulders.
Zhou Lao Er also did it, but when he came back from the blind date last time, he seemed to feel that he was not worthy of the Cheng family's girl, so he simply didn't go. It seems to see where there is something else decent.
Zhou Laosan has some power in his hands, and often goes to the mountains to hunt some prey, and sometimes earns more than the boss in a month. Usually it can help the family.
As for Zhou Yanci, he used to be the needlework and kitchen leader at home, but now he is ......
Sitting at home and taking on the responsibility of the whole blessing?
"I'll go with my eldest brother." Zhou Yanci silently grabbed two handfuls of steaming peanuts in her pocket, still thinking about where her wild boar was.
Honestly, she knows her own abilities.
But this blessing is random and at any time, and I don't know where to encounter or trigger it. But most of them don't take more than three months. If you shout a few more times, most of them can happen on the same day or double the blessing,
For example, the pigs of the Xie family are all pregnant.
She shouted several wild boars today, and it will definitely appear today. If someone else picks up the bargain, she won't do it.
She never does anything that makes people take advantage.
"You're a girl, your body hasn't been raised yet, you ......"
"Mother is fine, I'll take my sister with me. Wear two more clothes and don't blow the wind. It is good for the body to go out for a walk and relax. "Boss Zhou loves his sister, even if he blocks Yang's words.
Now that Zhou Chengli is not in good health, the Yang family can only listen to Zhou Dalang.
"Don't disgrace your fourth brother." Yang shook his head, afraid that this girl would make another mistake.
Seeing that it was dark, Dong was sweeping the rice into the bamboo basket, and hurriedly answered: "Mother, don't detain her when your little sister is young." Hurry up and steam out the steamed buns, and those who read will not eat multigrain cakes at that time. ”
This made Yang stop talking.
As long as Zhou Laosi is mentioned, the Yang family is different.
But the family eats and wears, as well as Zhou Laosi and her decoction, and most of them use Zhou Yan's words to return the money, but the Dong family is apologetic in his heart.
As long as you are not an only child, there will always be times when you are eccentric. Even if you don't notice it, children are treated differently.
In the eyes of outsiders, Zhou Yanci is extremely pampered if he doesn't do anything.
But when something really happens, everything for the daughter has to make way for the son. Three times to withdraw from relatives, a total of sixty taels of silver. Almost all of it was spent on her sons, and she hanged herself three times, but she got a chicken to make up for it.
The three of them went out, and it was just dark, and they could see the road clearly.
Zhou Lao Da and Zhou Yanci walked in the forefront, and Zhou Lao Er followed far behind.
Words are not a lot of words, but Boss Zhou was silent for a long time before he said softly: "Yanyan, you don't want to listen to the fourth brother for everything." In the future, we won't be in a hurry to get married, big brother will support you. You still have to pick up the fourth brother at such a late hour, your fourth brother...... Not worth it for you to be so nice to him. ”
Boss Zhou had a calm face.
He has always been taciturn and does not like to speak, let alone speak ill of his own mother and brother.
Zhou Yanci raised his eyes and glanced at him, big brother, where did you see that I was going to pick him up?
I'm looking for my pig!
God knows that the pig that Zhou Yanci found today has become the treasure of Zhou's town. Even if she doesn't give face to the Zhou family, she will always look at the face of her pigs.
I've seen a watchdog, but I've never seen a watchdog......
The pig-riding girl probably started tonight.
