Chapter 267, Brown White
..
The old man saw that Zeng Ruixiang was leaving, and said: "Xiang'er, my father is not sad, really, in fact, there is nothing wrong with moving out, your mother is not very willing to live there, don't worry, your mother will be relieved in a few days, and she will be able to take care of the housework." [~].. Your eldest brother said that he gave two taels of silver, plus a few New Year's gifts, your mother and I have enough to spend, and my father is also old and can't eat much. β
"Dad, don't say it again, you take care of it, I understand." This belated father's love made Zeng Ruixiang extremely sour, he was originally a soft-hearted and kind character, seeing the old man like this, he couldn't help but feel a little remorseful, he knew that he couldn't ask anything, so it was better not to ask. In this way, even Zeng Ruiqing has cut off contact, Zeng Ruixiang's feelings for Zeng Ruiqing are complicated, when he was young, after all, there was a little affection, and the change was after Zeng Ruiqing got married, but today Zeng Ruiqing's words subverted Zeng Ruixiang's previous cognition, Zeng Ruiqing's hatred has long been buried deep in his heart when he was young, Zeng Ruixiang doesn't know which is true and which is false.
Coming out of the school, Datian took Zeng Ruixiang's hand and instructed: "Xiangcub, my aunt knows that you are a good child, but I still have a word to tell you, no matter what your mother and father do wrong." After all, it's your father and mother, and now that they're older, they still have to be angry with their children when they're old, your eldest brother, don't mention it. But your father and your mother, my aunt still wants you to do more. β
Zeng Ruixiang respectfully agreed, Lin Kangping sent the Datian couple back, and Ziqing followed Zeng Ruixiang back to his parents' house.
Anyway, today Zeng Ruiqing said the words of the bridge and the road to the road, according to his strong personality, he will definitely not trouble Zeng Ruixiang's family again in the future, but he didn't ask the answer Ziqing wanted to know, which is a pity.
Ziqing looked at Zeng Ruixiang and didn't know what she was thinking when she lowered her head, so she said, "Dad, don't take your father's affairs too seriously." [~] His temperament is too similar to Grandma, selfish and cold, he can only bear others. Can't be blamed by others, let's not talk about his previous affairs, as far as today's matter is concerned, he felt that his father didn't take care of his eldest son's face, and invited his aunt and mother-in-law and his sister-in-law and father-in-law. In his eyes, his father was originally a dispensable brother, and he hadn't done it before. It's not as good as my sister-in-law, and my sister-in-law can still say a few fair words. β
Zeng Ruixiang listened to Ziqing's words, looked at the Shen family, and remembered the grievances of those years, his own, and Shen's. Ziqing's, Ziyu's, a little bit. bit by bit, stripped off Zeng Ruixiang's last thoughts about Zeng Ruiqing.
Zeng Ruixiang looked at Shen and said, "Big brother is like this, don't mention it, it's my father who is like this today, which makes me feel a little uncomfortable." β
Shen naturally knew Zeng Ruixiang's thoughts, and said: "In the future, let's be more filial to our father, it is better to hire a mother-in-law from the village to be responsible for my father's three meals a day and laundry, and my father's body will collapse." My mother didn't slow down, and she couldn't rely on Qiuyu to come over to help every day. β
Shen naturally didn't want to take care of it himself, but he was afraid that outsiders would know that the son would leave the sick old man in the school and wait for his daughter, and he would definitely bear the charge of unfilial piety, so he proposed this compromise method. It can't cost a few taels of silver a year, no matter what, the Chunyu family and Zeng Ruiqing's family are carved out, and there is only an old man and Tian's family left, and the Shen family can still accept it, after all, it is Zeng Ruixiang's father. What's more, looking at today's situation, the old man has changed a little, and he no longer makes unreasonable demands, and even what Qiu Yu said today made the Shen family feel a lot more worried. Therefore, at this time, Shen happily proposed to buy a mother-in-law to serve the elderly, and with the mother-in-law here, the movement of the school can also be known in time.
Zeng Ruixiang pondered for a moment and said, "It's okay, find it slowly, let Qiuyu be busy for a few days first." β
Ziqing thought of the old man's eyes, and thought of the old man's words, it was still a little strange, what is a wrong step? What does it mean to be sorry for too many people? Ziqing thought that this incident was the first of her own waves, so she said: "Dad, mother, I can't find anything to love for a while, it's better to let Xiaozi go over to help for a few days, it's just to cook a meal at noon, wash clothes, and nothing else, just heat up my grandma herself for dinner, the meal for the two is still simple, Xiaozi can't finish things in an hour, mother-in-law, let's look for it slowly." (LeavesΒ·~..)"
"It couldn't be better." Zeng Ruixiang said.
At this time, Lin Kangping also came back, and the two sat for a while, and then returned to Qingyuan. Ziqing tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, Lin Kangping hugged Ziqing and said: "Your father's matter is already like this, you don't have any burden, if you don't say this, I will take action sooner or later, what your father and mother have done over the years is really too much, and you have to seek justice for you and our father?" Otherwise, there will be trouble in the future, think about it, Ziping also came to the door twice in three days, Ziquan is also older, and he is also an ignorant person. As for grandpa and grandma, for the sake of your grandpa still having some remorse, let's treat him kindly to the old man in the future, your grandma is like this in this life, we can leave her alone in the future. β
Lin Kangping thought about it, but he still didn't offer Zifu, so he let Zifu have a clean and good image in Ziqing's heart.
Zeng Ruiqing's matter passed two days, and I heard that the Zhou family was preaching everywhere outside that the old man and the Tian family were going to move to the school to live, and they thought that his family was not eating well, so the two families had to agree on how much silver and two rice grains they would give the old man a year, and they also deliberately sent two stones of rice and two hanging money to the old man and Tian in front of everyone.
Shen and Zeng Ruixiang did not defend themselves, Xiao Zi brought some vegetables and vegetables to the past at noon every day, was busy cooking, washed the clothes and went back to Qingyuan, Shen was busy with the affairs of Shouyuan, but rarely passed, Zeng Ruixiang went around every day before going home, and the relationship with the old man eased somewhat, the old man's mood was good, and his complexion was much better, Tian was still the same, sometimes he kept his son at home for a meal, but unfortunately, Ziqing explained to Xiao Zi, every day's vegetables are for two people, she wants to keep Ziquan at noon, and she can only go out to buy vegetables and meat by herself at night, After all, a ten-year-old boy is the time when he can eat, and after one or two times, Tian will no longer think about it.
As soon as Shouyuan finished making the frame, the rainy season arrived, so it had to be stopped, and the villagers had to go back to breeding to prepare for spring ploughing. Lin Kangping said that Kangzhuang is also cultivating seedlings, more than 80 acres of paddy fields, also made a large pond to store water, the pond was last year to clean up the reeds have been dug up, the shallow water along the coast planted with bamboo shoots, that is, the white water, I heard that the cook Huang Pozi loves to eat, it happened that Lao Zhou will plant, Lao Zhou just manages the paddy field, idle is also idle, plant some bamboo shoots to eat, raise some ducks and geese, is also an entry, so he proposed with Lin An, Lin Kangping naturally has no opinion.
Only then did Ziqing know that there was already a bamboo shoot planting technology in this time and space, generally in the depression of the reed lake, not much, and the sale was relatively expensive, costing six or seven pounds, after all, ordinary people were reluctant to take paddy fields to grow vegetables, for fear that they would not be able to sell and have no food to eat.
Ziqing listened to Lao Zhou to inquire, he didn't know how many bamboo shoots could be produced in an acre of paddy field, and no one had ever planted a serious paddy field, but just took some depressions, puddles or ridges next to ponds.
Ziqing was a little interested when she heard this, and wanted to try it, so she said to Lao Zhou, measure 80 acres of paddy fields to plant early rice, and there are about three or four acres of land left, ready to plant bamboo shoots, Ziqing wants to see which one has a higher income.
In modern society, it is generally better to grow cash crops than to grow grain, but grain is fundamental, and in ancient times, there were no modern developed agricultural conditions and commodity circulation, so grain cannot be abandoned.
Lao Zhou's mouth couldn't close when he heard it, but he didn't expect that in order to please the greed of the old woman, he planted bamboo shoots, and the master not only did not blame, but also reused him, and promised that if the planting was successful, he would be rewarded with half a penny.
"This bamboo shoot does not need a lot of fertilizer, and can be harvested twice a year, I learned this craft from others before, but I haven't fiddled with it for several years, if it is done, I can save some fertilizer for the rice side." Lao Zhou thought about it and said.
"Okay, that's the case, you can do it, look at this year's income, sure enough, next year you will have to work your old man to put more effort into it, this Kangzhuang is not only ours, but also all of you." Lin Kangping said.
Lao Zhou kowtowed when he heard this, and Lin Kangping said to Ziqing: "I know this bamboo shoot, also called Zhubai, which is planted more in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and there are four seasons, and there can be one more dish when the season is replaced." β
"Not only that, but I think the benefits of growing bamboo shoots should be greater than that of rice."
The husband and wife were talking, Xiaoqing hugged Shuyan with an angry face, Shurui himself walked behind Xiaofen, he fell somewhere, his clothes and hair were messed up, and he was dirty, and he walked to Ziqing's side, there was still some moisture in his eyes, and he wanted to cry or not, only two of the three braids were left, which was very cute.
Ziqing hugged Shurui, glanced at Xiaoqing, instructed Xiaofen to prepare hot water, and asked, "Rui'er, come, tell my mother, why did you fall?" β
"Mother, trampoline, Rui'er tried it, it's not fun, Rui'er's ass hurts so much." Shurui touched his ass and said with a bitter face.
Ziqing listened inexplicably, this trampoline Ziqing had mentioned to the child that she wanted to make a big bed that she could jump on and play on, but because the old man's matter was delayed, she didn't think about it.
"It's all thanks to the master, let people get these brown pieces and pile them up over the gatehouse, the little young master saw it and said what kind of trampoline this is, I have to jump on it to play, I didn't look at it, and the little fan's hooves are not sensible, so I took the little young master to mess around, and it hurt like this?" Xiaoqing burst into tears as she spoke. (This site: Your support is my biggest motivation. )..
