Why don't the people of the Shu family and Laoshu Village go to Xinghua Village to pick up spring water to cook, but instead drag their families to live on the river dam and withstand the cold wind in winter?

Speaking of which, the victims living on the river dam watched more and more people come to live a month ago, and more than a dozen people with more prestige among the victims discussed the question of how to use water. Originally, the water source is the most precious thing, and thousands of people on the river dam still rely on those springs every day to live, and after discussing the water problem, a reasonable arrangement was made after more than a dozen people discussed.

At the end of the spring, since the victims spontaneously dug a big pit, there are people who take turns to guard this big pit, and when the victims come to get water, there are people who strictly supervise it, and there can be no waste in the slightest. And the people from the next village wanted to come here and jump back into the water, but these victims who defended the spring naturally refused. Those who wanted to jump back also thought about fetching water in the upper reaches of the spring, but after the victims found out their intentions, they spontaneously formed a group of people, and every few tens of meters, there were people who were guarded in turn.

The guards can line up to the top of Shu Qingai's former bamboo house, until it is already a little desolate, afraid of wild beasts, it is the end.

Every drop of water now is extremely precious to these people. The victims were reluctant to wash with water and the like, and in addition to cooking and drinking as needed, the water was stored in the dam to the brim.

When you come to the spring pool of the river dam, you must pass through the gate of Shu Qingai's compound.

Looking at the closed door of the compound, Wang spat indignantly! "Black-hearted slut! Sooner or later, it will have to be harvested by the sky! ”

Liu Xiaoju looked at her mother-in-law's actions, and also spat at the big courtyard gate! "Mother, when our Xiaoyue becomes the young lady of the Qian Mansion, let's clean up this little slut again!"

Liu Xiaoju had a flattering face, and for her temperamental mother-in-law, if she wanted to say that Liu Xiaoju was in front of her, she had to be a man with her tail between her legs.

"Hehe, I've already written to your eldest sister in the capital, this little slut was sent back by her, and she gave me such a trouble, I have to let her come back and clean her up in person!"

Liu Xiaoju listened! My eyes lit up!

I haven't seen that big sister in years! I still remember that when my eldest sister came back, she still married into the Shu family for less than two years! The eldest sister at that time was magnificent! It's more than the woman in the money house! If you pull out any of the golden hairpins on your body, they will be worth hundreds of taels.

Just a few maids around me are more magical than the young lady in the town! It's a pity that her powerful eldest sister hasn't come back for more than ten years since she left.

Thinking of this, Liu Xiaoju, who was still excited, dimmed her eyes.

"Mother, isn't the eldest sister still in touch with the family all these years? I didn't see her come back to see! It's been a year of drought in our southwest, so why don't you say something back? I don't know if the letter you wrote doesn't work. ”

Liu Xiaoju didn't dare to say the latter sentence out loud, so she had to lower her voice a few minutes. But the sharp-eared Wang still heard it word for word.

"Humph! What do you know, mother-in-law? It's not your turn to worry about it anyway! Anyway, you have to know that we still have your eldest sister behind us! I'll clean up that little slut sooner or later. ”

With her mother-in-law's words as a guarantee, Liu Xiaoju suddenly felt hope in her heart. Looking at the black pressure of the victims on the river dam, they were already cooking on a fire, there was cooking smoke everywhere, and their stomachs were gurgling angrily.

The first time the two came here to cook, Wang went to find a vacant place, and went around looking for dry firewood. Liu Xiaoju put down the contents of the bucket and wanted to fetch water for cooking, but only to find that she couldn't leave it at all.

The rice, grains, and kitchen utensils on the ground all had to be guarded. If you leave, those who are not protected will have unclean hands and feet! If you take this thing away, your mother-in-law will come back, and you won't have to scold yourself to death!

Therefore, Liu Xiaoju was so nervous that she went to the Wang family, who found firewood everywhere not far away, and only when she came back could she go to fetch water.

Because of the drought, there was a lot of dry firewood in Heti, and after a while, Wang came back with a bundle of dry firewood branches. From afar, he looked at Liu Xiaoju looking at himself eagerly, and Wang's heart was on fire for no reason!

Quicken the pace and go to Liu Xiaoju! More than ten meters away, Wang saw the pair of pots and bowls at Liu Xiaoju's feet, and immediately began to open his voice and scold!

"You're so lazy! I still went to pick up firewood, you are good, don't do anything, don't you have to wait for the old lady to come back and serve you to eat! ”

While scolding, Wang also came to Liu Xiaoju.

Liu Xiaoju has a fat round face, and she is so aggrieved that she can't do it, but she doesn't dare to interrupt her mother-in-law's words to explain!

I had to wait for Wang to finish scolding before telling the truth of the matter.

Wang looked at a small stove that had been built with pebbles on the ground, and the anger had subsided a lot.

"Then don't go yet! Remember to pick up more and bring them back, there are still so many people at home, and you still have to drink water! Your daughter's body is also precious, and she has to wash her face and dress up every day, and it is not feasible to have less water! ”

After Liu Xiaoju got the order, he picked up the wooden barrel and went to the puddle in the distance.

At this time, many families have already started to eat lunch. Today is the day when the county pig farm sent pigs, and when the dozens of pigs were sent early, they were slaughtered and disposed of by the victims.

After letting Wang, who was waiting for Liu Xiaoju to come back to cook with water, smell it, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva! Keep tiptoeing to see what kind of good things are eating in the bowls of these disaster victims!

"Hey! Isn't this Aunt Wang? What are you doing? ”

As Wang looked around at the well-fed victims, a voice disturbed her thoughts. When I turned my head, it was the widow of Nagar.

"Ge Shi, why did you move here too? Have you eaten it? ”

Ge's family is also very affectionate to the Wang family on weekdays, and he always has to call his aunt when he meets. Seeing that it was Ge's, Wang also smiled and narrowed his eyes.

Ge pretended to be suffering, took Wang's hand and began to complain.

"Oh, can you not come? My aunt also knows that I, a woman with a child, have no one to help the village, and when I encounter such a famine year, I can only escape with everyone, but fortunately, it is close to home, and the people in our village have come over, and they can also say a few words to relieve their boredom. ”

Wang nodded and looked at Ge with a distressed expression.

She just likes this woman, although she is a widow, but she has a sweet mouth, and she looks much more pleasing to the eye than her own fat daughter-in-law.

When the two were talking and laughing, the Zhang family, who had been choked by Shu Qingai when Shu Qingai returned to her parents' house last time in Laoshu Village, also came over, and there were still some sorghum rice grains hanging on her mouth, which were obviously just eaten. There are also a few women and mothers-in-law behind him, obviously this escape from the disaster after eating enough, there is nothing to do, idle panic, nothing to know about wandering around, and then looking for someone to chat.

As soon as Zhang came, before the man arrived, his sharp voice pierced the ears of Widow Ge and Wang.

"Oops! Isn't this Wang's? Why did you old lady come here to escape the famine? Your daughter is married to a big official in the capital! The little granddaughter is also the future sister-in-law of the town's Qian Mansion! The eldest granddaughter is even more amazing, such a big yard is right in front of you, how can you still take your broken copper and iron in western Zhejiang to cook outside their house! ”

The affairs of the Shu family, no one in Laoshu Village and Xinghua Village does not know, and they are often ridiculed as talking points! Zhang's loud voice roared, and people who knew Wang's cast mocking glances one after another. It can be seen that Wang is uncomfortable!

A mother-in-law behind Zhang's family, she couldn't get used to seeing Wang's high-minded appearance in the early years, and now that she has fallen to this, she has to seize such an opportunity to be sarcastic!

"Zhang, you mouth! It's really straightforward! The Wang family used to be so kind to that stupid girl, and it was really lucky that the stupid girl could grow up and marry alive! Can you pay attention to these black-hearted mother's family now? I don't recognize my words! ”

When Wang heard a few people, you said a word, and I said a word, and the sarcasm who had no scruples in front of her laughed! It trembles! Just as she was about to rush forward and fight with a few women, a widow hurriedly grabbed her!

"Auntie, don't meet these people all over again! These people just can't look at you! They also saw that the stupid girl was developed, so they said these words to deliberately stimulate you! Didn't you just want to slap in with that stupid girl, just like those disaster victims, can you have a bite to eat? ”

The widow tried her best to persuade her, and Wang's chest was so angry that her chest rose and fell! She's a hot nature! How can you bear it!

Seeing that the Wang family didn't listen to persuasion at all, the widow tried hard to break free, and pounced on the women opposite, and had to move out of the Qian family in the town.

Wang snorted and put his hand away!

But his mouth was still scolding with a few women, and he refused to give in at all!

Liu Xiaoju jumped two big buckets to the edge of the puddle, and was about to fetch water in the puddle, but the victims in charge of guarding the puddle scolded him!

"What are you doing? Haven't you seen that other people are all basins of water? You have such a big bucket, thousands of people are like you, the big guy is still alive? ”

It was a middle-aged woman who scolded Liu Xiaoju, after Liu Xiaoju married into the Shu family, in the past ten years, the people in the village have been polite to the Shu family because of the Shu family's daughter, including Liu Xiaoju when she goes out, everyone often flatters her, and today she was yelled at by a woman in tattered clothes! Suddenly, Liu Xiaoju also lost her temper!

"What are you so fierce? This spring is not yours! I can fight as much as I want, and when it's your turn to talk! ”
