After washing the clothes and wringing them out and drying them, Qu Xiaomo began to get busy in the kitchen again, first decocting the medicine for the golden sting, and then sweeping the house, thinking that it would rain in a few days, so he brought in a few bundles of firewood.

Qu Xiaomo is not a pampered eldest lady, she is still capable of doing this bit of housework, and it is not difficult to walk back and forth with firewood on her back, and by the way, she fills the water tank in the house, and time flies quickly after being busy.

Although the sun had not yet set, it was already covered by dark clouds, and the wind was stronger than before, but mixed with the heat, it seemed that it would only rain for a while or at night.

Because of the strong wind, Qu Xiaomo was afraid that the golden sting would be blown by the hot wind, so he wiped his hands and came out, and asked: "Big shopkeeper, do you want to sit inside, the wind is strong outside, you are weak now, in case you get sick, it will be difficult to do." ”

Jin Yu didn't want to eat dust here, so he nodded in response, Qu Xiaomo squatted down and carried the person into the house first, put it on the bed and lay down, moved the recliner in when he went out, and then put the person out and put it on, if there was a wheelchair, it would be much simpler, but unfortunately I asked when I bought a recliner last time, and there was no such thing.

Jin Yu sat back on the recliner and looked at Qu Xiaomo who was busy washing the pot and cooking and watching the fire, when it was almost dark, Aunt Fang and Uncle Fang came back, holding a handful of green onions and a few cabbages, and there was meat and cabbage fried at home, and the green onions were naturally asked by Qu Xiaomo when he went out, so he picked them by the way.

Qu Xiaomo, who was burning the fire, heard the sound and went out to see the green onions in Aunt Fang's basket, and said with a smile: "I wanted to wait for my aunt to come back and I will pick it, but I didn't expect you to pick it for me." ”

Saying that, she took the basket in her hand, picked up the basin and went outside to wash the vegetables, and after a while, she washed it and came back, then took out the pig lungs and cut them on the cutting board, and called Aunt Fang, who was dressed in mud, to come out, and saw the pig lungs in her hand, so she said: "I also ate this pig lung once or twice when I was young, but it has a taste, and I don't like to eat it too much." ”

Qu Xiaomo said with a smile: "After a while, I will go through the hot water, and then stir-fry in oil, and add some chili peppers at home, this smell is gone, but I don't know if my aunt and uncle eat spicy food." ”

"Eat." Aunt Fang sat beside the stove next to her and bent down to add firewood, and said, "The Chaotian peppers that the old man picked up on the mountain by himself are all dried and cut into seasonings, and I often eat some with him, not afraid of spicy." ”

"That's a good idea."

Pig lungs plus green onions and chili peppers are delicious to be fragrant, and in her previous life, she was empty like this, but she often worked overtime and couldn't sit often, and now she is getting more and more greedy.

It was already dark, Uncle Fang had already lit the lamp in the house, on the square table, the two dishes were steaming under the faint light, and Jin Yu was also moved to the table by Qu Xiaomo, and it was rare for the four of them to sit together for the first time to eat.

Qu Xiaomo took advantage of the gap to eat two mouthfuls of rice while feeding Jin Yu and drinking porridge, because he didn't know if he could eat the dishes on the table, he didn't dare to rush to feed them, but Aunt Fang and Uncle Fang, who were still suspicious of pig lungs, praised the deliciousness after tasting her fried food.

After a meal, half of the cabbage fried meat was left, and the stir-fried pork lungs were eaten, Qu Xiaomo was also very satisfied, washed the dishes and chopsticks, and the four of them sat down to rest, the wind outside gradually became stronger, Aunt Fang shook the pu fan and stretched out her head to look at the dark outside, and said, "It looks like there will be another rainstorm tonight!" ”

"It's okay, let's go down, the grass in the field is also pulled, take the opportunity to rest and rest." Uncle Fang took a puff of his flue

"I don't like the rain, it's wet everywhere, and it's uncomfortable to look at." Aunt Fang said with a look of disgust

Qu Xiaomo took out snacks and handed them to them, and then interjected: "I don't like rain either, my cloth shoes will get wet after a while when I go out in this rain, and they will be muddy and muddy, and the road is not easy to walk." ”

"Hahaha..."Aunt Fang took the snack and chewed it twice, so she smiled when she heard what she said: "The first night you came, I saw that you two were mud monkeys." ”

"No, I felt like I didn't look like a person at that time, but fortunately my aunt and uncle took me in."

"I'm also for your sake." Aunt Fang was not afraid of her greed for money, and said: "But then again, you are also a good boy, you don't need to use one or two taels of silver a month as I said before, you are buying meat and rice these days, and there is more than that." ”

"That's not possible, you still have to give what should be given." As he spoke, he said to Jin Zhennu, who was listening to them, "The big shopkeeper is not short of these money." ”

Jin Zhen raised his eyebrows and glanced at her with a smile, and then nodded as well: "It's really not bad for this money." ”

"Auntie, look at him, this rich man, we can't eat him." Qu Xiaomo said proudly

Aunt Fang just smiled, changed the topic, and brought up the matter in the village: "I heard that the girl from the village chief's family is going to get married, and I don't know which one it is." ”

"It doesn't matter which house she wants, this girl is very careful, and she won't live in peace wherever she goes." Uncle Fang said in a rare tone with a slight disgust

Aunt Fang also nodded in agreement: "But she is the best-looking girl in these ten miles and eight towns, I'm afraid that many young people will feel distressed." ”

"Hmph, that's why they're blind too." Uncle Fang said

Qu Xiaomo looked at Uncle Fang and Aunt Fang's disgust for a person for the first time, and asked curiously, "This girl from the village chief's family... I don't usually go out for a walk, but I haven't seen it, what's your name? Isn't it beautiful? Listening to the words of the aunt and uncle, it seems that this girl is not of good character. ”

"It's not that the character is bad." Uncle Fang said: "This girl relied on her good looks, so she hooked up with the men in the village everywhere, and also involved several people in the neighboring villages. ”

After saying that, she smoked two puffs of dry tobacco, and Aunt Fang took over and said: "This girl has a bad heart, just pull those young and unmarried men, and hook up with a married man, most people in our village know, but it is just a scandal in the village, and the girl in the village has to get married, so it has not been spread, your uncle was also slandered by him two years ago, fortunately, the aunt was present at the time, otherwise it would really cause a commotion." ”

Although Qu Xiaomo was curious about what was going on, he didn't want to ask so rashly at the moment, so he said: "It turns out that there are such girls, if this is spread out, I am afraid that no one will dare to marry the girls in our village." ”

"No, I don't know which family she said, but it won't be a neighboring village." Aunt Fang said, more or less everyone in the neighboring village knows some news, who would dare to marry this kind of girl to mess with their own house.

As he spoke, a lightning bolt suddenly struck, followed by a rumbling thunder, Qu Xiaomo, who was just about to speak, was so frightened that he bit his tongue and wet his eyes with pain, and the wind was already raging outside, and the heavy rain began to fall.

The clothes that I washed today were dried in a short time, and they had already been put away, and there was nothing outside, so everyone listened to the thunder and the rain, and chatted.

It was late at night that Qu Xiaomo fed Jin Yu with medicine, and then carried him into the room to rest, and Aunt Fang and Uncle Fang also packed up and entered the room.

Heyi was lying on the board, Qu Xiaomo, who was covered with a thin quilt, looked sideways at the golden sting who had fallen asleep on the bed with her eyes closed, shrunk her body, and there was a lot of thunder outside, she was a little scared.

Maybe there were a lot of people, and there were still people around, Qu Xiaomo didn't long fall asleep in a daze after curling under the quilt.

When I woke up the next day and went out to wash, the heavy rain had stopped, and the sun had already come out, but after a night of heavy rain, it was very fresh outside, and even the wind that blew was no longer the usual heat, only with the fragrance of the earth, and the water droplets left on the leaves reflected a dazzling light under the sunlight, like glass beads.

In such a refreshing and good weather, Qu Xiaomo naturally wanted to carry the golden sting out to enjoy it, wash up and go back to the house to help the golden sting, who had woken up, put on his coat, and then carried it out of the house and placed it on the recliner that had been moved out earlier, and then fetched water to wash him.

"How's it, isn't it very comfortable today, the wind blowing after this heavy rain is fragrant, which makes people feel energetic." Qu Xiaomo gave Jin Yu a face and said

Jin Yu only closed her eyes and hummed silently, letting her wipe her face, and after serving him, she went into the kitchen again and began to prepare breakfast and decoction.

Bathed in the morning breeze and warm sun, the golden sting's face is enjoyed, and such a comfortable day can only be experienced at this time.

raised his eyes and looked at Qu Xiaomo, who was busy going in and out of the kitchen, and said slightly: "Wait for me to wash my hair today." ”

Qu Xiaomo, who was adding firewood to the porridge stove, poked his head out when he heard the sound, and asked uncertainly, "Wash your hair today?" ”

Saying that, he looked at the sky and said, "Isn't it a little cold?" ”

"No, boil water." Golden Sting

In this way, Qu Xiaomo had to retract his head in response, he still had to see if the sun was good at noon, don't get a fever and cold at that time, she was afraid that this person would remember everything on her head after she got better.

Uncle Fang and Aunt Fang got up later than them, they were older, they had another day of work yesterday, it was rare that it was rainy and cool last night, so why should they get up a little later today.

When the two of them got dressed and came out, they saw that Qu Xiaomo had already made a fire and was cooking, and Aunt Fang said, "It's rare to sleep cool last night, why did you get up so early?" ”

Qu Xiaomo smiled and scooped the two of them with washing water, and said: "Just because it is cool, I get up and blow the morning wind, and my body and mind are a lot more comfortable, and the heat of the past few days has been blown away." ”

Aunt Fang smiled and went out to wash with a basin, and said hello to the golden stings in the courtyard, drinking porridge and steamed buns during breakfast, as well as the leftovers from last night, the leftovers should be tasted when they are not eaten and put at noon, the four of them said this while eating, and naturally Qu Xiaomo and Aunt Fang talked the most, and it was Uncle Fang who was there, and the golden stings only listened and did not talk, but they were all used to it.

Chatting about the work for a while, Aunt Fang said: "There is no work today, your uncle is going to Wang Laohan to sit on a few chairs and benches, and I will find a few good chatters, if you are fine, you can also join us." ”

Qu Xiaomo shook his head and said, "Forget it, I'm not familiar with those sisters-in-law, it's better to be comfortable in the yard." ”

She has only lived here for a few months, and she doesn't know if she will have a chance to come back in the future, even if she has a good neighborhood relationship now, it is useless, she wants to listen to gossip and wait for Aunt Fang to come back and inquire about it.
