Chapter 27: How humble the poor woman is
After three cups and two glasses, his face was slightly drunk, Xu Jinning was about to leave, and he was still a little reluctant before leaving, "Mrs. Huo's craftsmanship is excellent, excellent." ”
Yang Chunyan hadn't spoken yet, but Huo Yanshen looked modest, "It's that things are relatively fresh." ”
"It tastes really good." Xu Jinning scratched his head, and his smile slowly hooked, as if he had seen a business opportunity, "I wonder if Brother Huo has ever thought about dealing with these sweet potatoes like this?"
Of course, it is to make money, Yang Chunyan smiled mysteriously, generally speaking, sweet potatoes can be dug up in August, but they planted them late, so they simply added greenhouses, so it will be later, but it will be too late for next year.
When the time comes, the hot roasted sweet potatoes, fragrant and sweet, are definitely a fire in winter, the kind that everyone is hungry for.
"This is not suitable for sale in restaurants." Yang Chunyan also saw through his thoughts at a glance, Xu Jinning's family opened a restaurant, and naturally the first thing he thought of when he met delicious food was his own restaurant. It's just that they don't grow much, enough for them to eat and even take out and sell it, but the demand for restaurants is too great, and their little sweet potatoes are not enough to stuff their teeth.
So it's better to wait until next year to plant it.
Xu Jinning was a little disappointed, but thinking that he could come to eat in the future, he blushed again, "If you come to the door later, I hope Brother Huo and Mrs. Huo will welcome you." ”
Huo Yan smiled deeply, "Sweep the couch to greet each other." ”
The next day was a sunny day, and the snow melted a little clearer.
Everyone gathered in the workshop to watch the weaver spin the thread, the weaver is a good hand, the spinning thread is beautiful and strong, which makes people look very hot.
stayed for a morning, and in the afternoon, Yang Chunyan and the two said that they would take the line back to their parents' house to see how Yang Juan's progress was.
Xu Jinning is also very hot-eyed, but in the end, he is not a relative, he is afraid that he will end up with a bad reputation, and he can only have hot eyes, but Huo Yanshen has to follow.
Just go, and rest assured that you can follow. After lunch, the two took the freshly woven thread to find Yang Juan.
The original mother was a good embroiderer, and Yang Juan learned only a lot, and she was also a craftsman.
When the two of them went, Yang Juan was sitting on the kang weaving a semi-finished product, and her movements looked more and more proficient, Yang Chunyan smiled when she saw it, "The eldest sister's craftsmanship is really good." ”
Seeing that she was coming, Yang Juan had a surprise on her face and put the things in her hand, "Why did you come here at this time, you can have dinner?" ”
"I ate it," Yang Chunyan took the semi-finished product she knitted, only to see that the weaving seams were fine, well-organized, and the end was a first-class product, so she smiled, "The eldest sister's craftsmanship is really good, I can't do it." ”
The wool is soft to the touch, warm and delicate, the woven product is even more beautiful and delicate, and it is warm and light to wear.
"How does it feel to weave the eldest sister?" Yang Chunyan took the half-basket of finished products handed over by Yang Juan, her eyes were full of satisfaction, she just wanted to divert the attention of the eldest sister, but she never expected the eldest sister's craftsmanship to be so amazing.
"By the way, what about my mother?" When Yang Chunyan came, she looked at the courtyard and found that the original mother was not there, not only that, but even Yang Jun was not there.
There is no farm work in the winter, and it is cold in the north, so most farmers stay at home in winter, and it is best to sit on the kang to warm up.
Speaking of her mother, Yang Juan smiled, and compared with Yang Chunyan's extraordinarily old face, she overflowed a little gentle, "It's unfortunate that you came, today our mother rushed to the town to deliver embroidery, and it is estimated that she will come back late, Xiaojun also followed, saying that she wanted to see the world." ”
"How old is Xiao Jun, it's not as useful as the last school." Yang Chunyan took the wool she brought, "This is the wool we just spun in the morning, I didn't tell you, Huo Yanshen came back yesterday and brought a lot of wool, and now the spinning is officially started, but there are not enough weavers, I want the eldest sister to go, what does the eldest sister think?"
It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish, Yang Juan was ruthlessly abandoned by her husband's family, and her heart became more and more inferior, so she stayed in her mother's house all the time, which was not possible.
This backward era also pays attention to women marrying and obeying their husbands, and those who are abandoned are far from having a good reputation, Yang Juan is the best among them, the family is already poor, the second sister finally got married, and she has to support her younger brother who is still young, plus she eats white rice, she can't get over it.
To be honest, when it first happened, Yang Juan wanted to find a sister-in-law temple to accompany the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha, if it weren't for the fact that it was not easy for her mother to support her, she would have thought about suicide.
But the parents who suffer from the body, she thinks of her mother who is getting older, and she doesn't dare to destroy it, and the white-haired person sends the pain of the black-haired person, she can't let the old mother suffer.
and Yan'er, obviously just got married, and it was when she behaved well in front of her mother-in-law, but because she had a pungent reputation, she was even more upset. I just want to find a way to make a living, so as not to drag down my family.
Yang Juan stood up excitedly, "Is Yan'er serious?" I thought it would be enough to find a job, but I never expected the second sister to treat herself so well.
"Take it seriously." Yang Chunyan pulled her hand and pulled her to sit down, comforting her, "You are my own sister, can I still lie to you?" It's just that my business has just emerged, and the profit is not yet certain, so I'm afraid I'm going to suffer the eldest sister. ”
"Not bitter, not bitter." Yang Juan's eyes were red, and tears rolled down, "Yan'er can help me like this, I am grateful, where do you dare to dislike Yan'er, I have suffered in this life, I don't ask for much, and it is my life's wish not to drag down my family." ”
"Sister, what are you talking about!" Yang Chunyan glared at her, suppressed the dullness of her chest, and hated iron for not becoming steel, "When the eldest sister got married, I was still young, and my mother was full of enthusiasm for the eldest sister, and I found you such a selfish and affectionate husband, it is the pain in my mother's heart, and my sister is dissatisfied in my heart, so I must not let my mother hear it." ”
"That Zhang Lin family doesn't treat my sister as a person, and we are also resentful in our hearts when they grind my sister every day, but now we have completely dissociated ourselves from them, I can understand that my sister has been depressed and abnormal for three years, but people have to look forward, look back at a sea of suffering, and only when they look forward can there be hope."
"Zhang Lin is in the past, if my sister is immersed in the past every day, are you worthy of your earnest mother? Are you worthy of yourself? Yang Chunyan looked at her coldly, eager to slap her to wake her up.
Men are inferior to women, and women regard their husbands as heaven. The feudal era really hurt people a lot.
"Yan'er ......" Yang Chunyan was really a little unkind, Yang Juan looked at her willow eyebrows, at a loss, at a loss, at a moment, surprised, always saw the second sister gentle as water, how could he have been so imposing, I just felt that the village chief did not have such momentum.
It makes people unconsciously happy and convinced.
It's just that the belief that has been respected for twenty years can't be overturned in a moment, Yang Juan looked at the second sister who hated her indisputably, her heart softened into a puddle of water, but the tears fell down, "I don't want to ...... either"
She didn't want to, that year she married early in order to reduce the burden on her family, and before she got married, she was also very shy and longing for her daughter's heart, fantasizing that a man is a hero who stands up to the sky, no matter how bad it is, he is also a good man who is full of justice and loves his daughter-in-law.
After getting married, I realized that all the longings before marriage were reversed, there were no heroes, there were no good men who loved their daughters-in-law, and there were just picky and mean mothers-in-law and men who liked the new and hated the old and beat their mother-in-law.
Sometimes I wonder if she was too greedy and the Bodhisattva punished her like this.
"Yan'er, I feel uncomfortable...... Yang Juan hugged Yang Chunyan's hand and cried, crying and not forgetting to put the wool thread farther away, lest it dirty the wool thread.
Seeing her like this, Yang Chunyan felt uncomfortable, she had crossed over, she had received an equal education before she crossed, and she understood but resented the dynasty that was so grinding women, but she wore it all over, and everyone was equal It was all in the past.
When he wore it, he suddenly learned that he had another man, and he was also terrified, but fortunately, Huo Yanshen was not such a person who looked down on women, and he understood her bottom thoughts, and he strongly supported her.
Having an enlightened man is the most fortunate thing she has been since she crossed over.
It's just that not everyone is as lucky as her, the eldest sister of the original body is such a poor woman who has been disgraced and can't get a good reputation.
"It's all gone." All Yang Chunyan can do is comfort her, and maybe give her a chance to get out of such a predicament.
"You are still young, Zhang Lin can't look down on you, he is blind, and when our business is up, we have money in our hands, what kind of good man do you want?"
"Yan'er." Yang Juan wanted to laugh at what she said, even if she felt that this statement was very rebellious, she felt a lot better in her heart, "What I hope for now is not to cause chaos at home." ”
"No, it won't." Yang Chunyan comforted her gently, "My mother loves you very much in her heart, and it's too late to feel sorry for you, so why resent." After a pause, she sighed again, "It's just that you don't want to be so negative anymore, I don't say it, my mother looks at it, and I feel uncomfortable in my heart, after all, your mother was single-handedly involved in marrying someone." ”
"I know." Yang Juan looked guilty, "I don't complain about my mother, and I know the severity." ”
"That's good." Yang Chunyan retreated, evoked a relaxed smile, and patted her shoulder, "I still need my sister to knit wool socks for me, if my sister is obsessed with the past day and night and delays her business, I won't follow!"
Yang Juan smiled at her, and the corners of her ruddy eyes curved, "Don't worry!" ”
"That's good." Yang Chunyan looked satisfied, "You are my eldest sister, I will protect you in the future!"
Yang Juan laughed out loud again, she really felt warm in her heart, and sighed in her heart, how lucky the sky was to give her such a good girl.
"Alright." Yang Chunyan looked at the slanting sun, "It's getting late, it's time for me to go home." ”
Yang Juan was taken aback, "Are you leaving, let's stay and eat, I haven't seen my mother and Xiaojun." ”
"Nope." Yang Chunyan smiled and pointed outside, "Huo Yanshen is still waiting at the entrance of the village, if I don't go back, he should be in a hurry."
Yang Juan was shocked again, "My brother-in-law is here too!" Crying and laughing again, "You let people stand at the entrance of the village, how cold it is, what to do if it freezes, why don't you invite people to your home." ”
"He's a big man, he's angry, and he wears thick clothes, so he can't freeze." Yang Chunyan said, put all the woolen socks that Yang Juan had knitted in the past few days into the basket, and covered them with things, for fear that others would see it, "Besides, we came so early, I originally wanted to go to the mountain, so let him squat there for a while, sister, don't send it, it's cold outside, you're not in good shape, and you're freezing." ”
