CHAPTER XVI

I really come what I say, and I come when I am worried. As soon as the two of them walked to the old well in the middle of the village, Wen Dazui Wen Huimei, who was washing clothes there, took the initiative to greet them.

"Aunt Wu, take your new daughter-in-law to the ground?"

"Yes! Sister Wen did her laundry so early! ”

Wu Ju quickened her pace as she spoke, for fear that this Wen Dazui would come over with guns and cannons, and Shumei would follow closely with interest.

"I said Aunt Wu! Such a delicate, beautiful new daughter-in-law, just got married, you pulled her to work in the field, your family will be distressed, such a new daughter-in-law who is loved by everyone, a lot of people rush to feel distressed, don't cook the duck to fly into someone else's pot. ”

This article is very beautiful, but no matter how she decorates her intentions, Wu Ju and Shumei can also hear the ridicule in her words.

She has her Zhang Liang plan, and Wu Ju has Wu Ju to cross the wall ladder. This Wu Ju is not so easy to mess with, how can he be ridiculed and ignored. She stopped her hurried footsteps, turned around and said angrily: "Sister Wen! It seems that you are idle and panicked, since you are so idle, why don't you go to the river to wash clothes and waste all of our drinking water here. ”

"What is wasting everyone's drinking water, which eye do you see that you can't do laundry here? I'll wash it, what's in your way? Do you think this well belongs to you? Joke, the upper beam is not right, the lower beam is crooked. ”

"What do you say? Who do you say is not right on the top and crooked on the bottom? ”

"Whoever answers, speaks! The old hook up with three and four, I didn't expect to marry a daughter-in-law before I entered the door, and I cuckolded my man, and I still have a blind face here, so I would have been killed earlier. ”

Wen Dazui lowered his head and rubbed the clothes in the basin, and said unceremoniously and disdainfully, with a sense of contempt in and out of his words.

Hearing this, Shumei was so aggrieved that she couldn't do it, to be honest, she really wanted to rush out and scold the fat woman in front of her, or fight with her happily.

But she didn't do it, and now her words and deeds are no longer only related to herself, because she has her own home, for this small family that she has been looking forward to for a long time, for her beloved Jizong, and for the Zhang family, she has to endure and smooth her edges and corners.

Wu Ju was so angry that he threw aside the bamboo basket on his back, pointed at Wen Dazui and scolded: "Wen Dazui, put your mouth clean for me, do you believe that I will tear up your stinky mouth?" ”

Wen Dazui stood up and threw the clothes in his hand into the basin heavily, "What? I still want to hit someone! Everything I said is the truth, if people don't know what to do unless they do it, they have the face to do it, and they don't have the face to let others say it? ”

"I'm going to have to tear your foul mouth apart today." Wu Ju was so angry that he jumped like thunder and threw himself at Wen Dazui, who was standing there.

Seeing that the momentum was not right, Shumei hurriedly put down the hoe in her hand and the back basket on her back, and pulled Wu Ju before the two scuffled together.

"Auntie, forget it, let's go!"

Hearing the quarrel between the two, the villagers also gathered around. Wu Ju was still struggling to leave just now, but at this time, looking at more and more people, looking at a pair of crazy eyes, her abuse became smaller and smaller. In the end, under Shumei's half-pull and half-drag, she picked up the back basket and slipped away.

"Phew!"

Wen Dazu spat on the ground, and stomped on two feet with his feet. Some nosy women gathered around her and asked her what had happened, and she felt a sense of accomplishment and began to talk to these good women while doing laundry.

Shumei bowed her head all the way and was silent, she always thought that other people's spit would drown people, but after today's incident, she realized that this is life, this is the life of these uneducated and simple mountain people. Quarrels are commonplace.

Wu Ju was not as calm as her, complaining all the way, beating her chest and scolding endlessly. When she arrived at the rape seedling field, she was still muttering while pulling the rape seedlings.

Shumei bent down and pulled the rape seedlings neatly, and she could only turn a deaf ear to Wu Ju's words.

Seeing Shumei doing things so efficiently, Wu Ju's anger subsided a lot, "Hey! You stuffy gourd, people bullied your aunt just now, why didn't you even let out a fart? ”

"Ah Niang, the clear ones are self-turbid, and the clear ones are turbid, we are not afraid of shadows, why bother to entangle with them." Shumei did not stop what she was doing because she answered Wu Ju's question, and she continued to pull rape seedlings neatly.

"I'm talking about you! Don't you know that people like to pick soft persimmons and pinch them? Do you think you'll be able to settle things if you back down? The more you back down, the more people see that you are bullying, the more you have to make inches, and over time you will become everyone's plaything, and everyone will think that you are taking advantage of the after-dinner conversation. ”

Wu Ju looked at Shumei's casual appearance, and was so angry that she crossed her waist and reprimanded her, and told her her her big truth.

"It's a blessing to suffer losses, as long as you live your own life."

"You, you, when you really suffer a loss in the future, you will remember what I said today." Wu Ju sighed and shook his head.

Summer has gone to the autumn solstice, and now it can be regarded as the end of autumn, the sun is no longer as hot as summer, it is a good time to work, neither hot nor lukewarm. Shumei, who is accustomed to farming at home on weekdays, naturally will not slack off the work in her hands, she is not in the mood to chat with Wu Ju at all, and she will fill the empty back basket in three or two clicks.

"A-Niang, it's full, let's go!"

Shumei wiped the sweat from her forehead, took the initiative to carry the heavy phosphate fertilizer, picked up the hoe, and waited for Wu Ju to lead the way.

The village where they live is a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, surrounded by water, and everyone calls it "Little Taiwan" on weekdays. Although the people here are not wealthy, they are very happy, planting in the spring and harvesting in the autumn, working hard to fill their stomachs, and the life is full and peaceful.

They don't smell the smell of copper, they don't worry about being laid off, they don't indulge in the glamour......

The "Little Taiwan" at this time, although it is not as beautiful as the mountains and rivers in spring, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, but the scenery is also very good. Wild yellow all over the mountains. The chrysanthemums are in full bloom, the cypress trees that are evergreen in all seasons have not turned yellow because of the arrival of the autumn wind, and the birds are still singing pleasantly.

With such good mountains and rivers, Shumei didn't even take a second look, and followed closely behind Wu Ju with her head down. When he arrived in the field, he didn't need Wu Ju's command, he took the initiative to pick up the hoe, skillfully raised the hoe, and turned the soil in the field one by one.
