Meizi sighed and said, "No matter what, it's useless for the two of us to talk about it." Liu Yi was also unhappy that Liu Er was taken back by the Tang family. The two fell silent, looking at the peach blossoms flying in front of them, until Zhao Qing carried a small basket and ran over to them and shouted: "Sister Chrysanthemum, Sister Meizi, are you resting?" It's time to get to work. ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, then got up and continued to cut wild vegetables.

When the sun rose, Chrysanthemum and the other three went home. As soon as she returned to the gate of the courtyard, she saw Liu Yunlan carrying the small gourd on her back with a bag, carrying a vegetable basket in both hands, and going to the river to wash it.

She hurriedly asked, "Sister Yunlan, hasn't my mother come back yet?" How can you wash vegetables with a gourd on your back like this? If you wait for your mother to come back, it doesn't matter if you make lunch later. ”

Liu Yunlan smiled: "Look at what you said, how can you always count on Niangli, she is tired enough to hoe grass in the field." Aren't all other daughters-in-law coming over like this? Meizi also often tied her son to her back to work. In the future, there will be more and more births, what can you do if you don't tie it up like this? Don't worry, I can do this. I haven't done any heavy work since I got married, and if I even need help with cooking, then I'm too unproductive. ”

Chrysanthemum was speechless and watched her go to the river. That back, very familiar—you can see it everywhere in the countryside. It seems that she is hypocritical, and in the future, she will be like this herself, otherwise in the busy season, she will wait for her mother-in-law to come to the house to help bring the baby, and she will free up her hands to cook, for fear that she will be gossiped.

It's better to worry about what to do in the future, Liu Yunlan is famous and capable, so this is not a problem. Thinking about carrying one by one and working one by one in the future, Chrysanthemum suddenly felt a little numb in her scalp - the days of raising a bunch of babies don't seem to be very good. As soon as she returned to her yard, He Shi greeted her eagerly, took the basket in her hand, and said with a smile: "Wash and eat two pieces of bread first, I'll put them in the pot and heat them." After the break, I'll smash the artemisia. Chrysanthemum's heart was warm, she washed her face and took a piece of pancake, sat under the eaves of the porch, and watched He smash the tender artemisia with a mallet while eating, and did not go to the river, so she made a bucket of well water to rinse.

She couldn't help asking, "Mother, are we going to hoe and fertilize our wheat?" You take care of me at home like this, I'm afraid you will delay a lot of work in the field. I don't vomit a lot now, or else, mother, you should go out to work with your father, I cook and do housework, be careful, it will be fine. ”

He Shi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Why do you remember this?" We don't have much land, we haven't planted a few acres of wheat, and your father can come over as he deserves, won't Huaizi come back in a few days? Your father and I have calculated it, I will serve the chickens, ducks and pigs well at home and serve you well, which is better than anything else. ”

Chrysanthemum couldn't cry or laugh, and her mother-in-law actually put herself behind the chicken, duck and pig.

He Shi still didn't know it, and was still nagging about her breeding plan.

At night, Chrysanthemum sat quietly under the lamp sewing small clothes, while missing Huaizi. When this person was around, he didn't feel it, but when he left, he felt that his room and heart were empty.

After thinking about it for a while, she thought about taking care of the child again, if she was asked to work with the baby tied to her back like Liu Yunlan and Meizi, she felt that she was afraid that she would not succeed. But how to solve this problem... 100^degrees. Search ^ Search. VIII^1. Chinese^text^net...?

Why don't you try to get the walker out? It's not difficult, the most important thing is to make the wooden wheel rotate 360 degrees on the ground, and the carpenters here are very skillful and she gestures to them, so it may not be impossible to do it.

The next night, she told Aoki about it, and drew it on paper for a long time, so that he understood the function of the walker, and then went to communicate with Carpenter Li. As for whether Carpenter Li can make it, Chrysanthemum does not dare to guarantee it. She didn't remember what the structure of the car was, but she knew that the little baby could sit and stand in the car, and run all over the ground with the car, but she wouldn't fall.

Liu Yunlan's eyes lit up when she heard this, and said that if this car was made, she wouldn't have to tie the little gourd to her back when she was working.

Chrysanthemum smiled slightly, thinking to herself, didn't I just think of this thing because I saw you working with a gourd?

A few days later, Zhang Huai, Zhang Yang and others returned from Qinghui with joy.

A few people returned to the sunset, and through the willow-shaded path, they saw chrysanthemums trimming hibiscus outside the courtyard wall.

Huaizi's heart softened, and she quickly quickened her pace and came to her; Xiao Shi shouted loudly, "Sister Chrysanthemum, we are back." ”

Chrysanthemum, who was holding a sickle in her hand, cut off the branches of the hibiscus that were too tall so that it could grow horizontally, turned her head in surprise when she heard the sound, and when she saw a few of them, she immediately smiled; Looking at their expressions again, you know that this county has tried.

She saw that the little stone's mouth was like a lotus, and asked tentatively, "Stone, you...... Have you passed the prefectural test? ”

When Xiao Shi heard this, he puffed out his mouth unhappily and said, "Sister Chrysanthemum, what do you mean, 'It's over,'?" Could it be that you thought I couldn't get by? ”

Zhang Yang also laughed out loud.

Chrysanthemum felt that she was asking inappropriately, didn't she just think that the stone couldn't pass, no matter how smart he was, he was still too young.

"No," she explained, "no. I thought you could get by, but then I thought about it, at your age, it's really too old, and I can't believe it, so I'll confirm with you. ”

Huaizi stepped forward to take the sickle in her hand and said with a smile: "He may be patient, he is the youngest child to take the exam this time." Let's go, let's go home, I'll tell you slowly. He half-grabbed her arm and walked out into the yard.

Xiao Shi was thinking about whether to go in with them to talk and laugh, or go back to his house to see his father and mother first, when he heard a loud scolding from behind him: "Zhang Huai, you ***, don't do anything, black-hearted and rotten things, bad people have a bad marriage, and you can't die well." Zhang Dazhuan, your good son, you come out for me! ”

Chrysanthemum shook - the voice was all too familiar to her.

At the end of the village, she pinched and scolded her mother Yang, and it was a miasma, and Liu Erniang's voice has been deeply rooted in her brain since then, blocking the door of the house and scolding Zhang Huai, why is this?

She looked at Zhang Huai beside her suspiciously.

Zhang Huai turned his head suddenly, glared at Liu Erniang angrily, and said in a deep voice: "What are you yelling about?" Go home and ask your daughter about things before talking, otherwise I'm not welcome. ”

Liu Erniang's eyes were open terribly, and she rushed into the yard in three steps and two steps, approached Zhang Huai, gritted her teeth and scolded: "The old lady asked very clearly, you little bastard, how is my Liu Er's doing, it's your business?" Want you to 'dog take a mouse-nosy,?' You asked the Tang family to divorce her, what was your idea? ”

She has been in a very bad mood recently, Liu Er is like a withered flower, her vitality is gradually fading, she sees it in her eyes, and her heart is like a knife, so she can only keep running to the Tang family and personally serve Liu Er, hoping that she can get better as soon as possible.

But after all, she couldn't stay in the Tang family all the time. This afternoon, Liu Er was carried back to her parents' house by Zhang Huai, and she was taken aback - she had begged the old lady of the Tang family several times in the past, and wanted to take Liu Er back to live for a few days, but she couldn't agree, why did she come back today? She asked Zhang Huai what was going on.

Zhang Huai and the others met the half-dead Liu Er on the road, so they took turns carrying her and sending her back. After it was delivered, in order to avoid suspicion, he didn't want to bother with this matter anymore, so he told Liu Erniang that the master was still waiting for them to reply, so you should ask Liu Er about this matter yourself. Liu Erniang looked at her dying daughter, and couldn't bear it, so she didn't ask questions first, and went to boil porridge to feed her, and then asked for details.

When she heard that Liu Er sneaked out of the Tang family and fainted, it was Zhang Huai and the others who saved her, and then the Tang family caught up with her to take her back, she begged Master Tang to divorce her, and Zhang Huai and they sent her back.

She was suddenly mad, the Tang family wanted to take Liu'er back, and Zhang Huai and they should let go. It is natural for people to take their daughter-in-law home, he is not Liu Er's mother's family, but from a village, why should he bother with this idle matter? This is tantamount to supporting Liu'er and forcing Master Tang to take a break from Liu'er. Let her Liu Er be taken home and become everyone's joke, what does he think?

All her pain and despair these days seemed to have found an outlet, and they turned into anger and swept towards the Zhang family. No, it's the Zhang family and the Zheng family, she hates these two families so much.

She rushed out of the house without looking back, ignoring Liu Er's faint call behind her, and went straight to the school, but Zhou Fuzi said that Zhang Huai and they had gone home, so she killed Zhang's house again and scolded at the door.

Chrysanthemum listened to Liu Erniang's words, and looked stunned, how is this possible, why did Huaizi want the Tang family to take a break from Liu'er?

Zhang Yang was furious, pointed at Liu Erniang's nose and said, "You old wife, you really don't know what to do, who are you scolding?" Your own daughter begged someone to divorce her, what does it matter to my brother? We were kind enough to send her back, but we also sent her to disaster? ”

Xiao Shi also said on the side: "It was Sister Liu'er who begged Master Tang to divorce her." ”

Liu Erniang was furious, and said to Zhang Yang: "You guys are kind? Kindness makes people divorce their wives? "I'd rather demolish ten temples than destroy a marriage, you let people divorce my family Liu'er, and you will cut off your children and grandchildren in the future, I'm afraid that you, a leper girl, won't even be able to give birth to a leper dog······"

When Zhang Huai was talking to Zhang Yang, he whispered to Chrysanthemum: "She was mistaken, it was Liu Er who begged the Tang family to divorce her." You go in first, and I'll chase her away." ”

Chrysanthemum probably understood what was going on, so she nodded, but before she could turn around, she heard this vicious curse, and she was furious for a while, and turned her head to stare coldly at the crazy woman.

Yes, she thinks this mother-in-law is crazy, but anyone who has a little brain, should also think about it, why would people care about your daughter's affairs? As soon as Liu Erniang said this, he poked Zhang Huai's heart and lungs, his eyes immediately turned red, he threw away the package in his hand, strode forward without saying a word, grabbed Liu Erniang's arm, and dragged her out.

Liu Erniang struggled desperately, but how strong was Huaizi, and how could she break free? I saw her feet make two marks on the ground, which stretched all the way to the gate of the courtyard. In her anger, she opened her mouth and bit Huaizi's wrist.
