Chapter 29: The Village Chief's Family Befriended

This country man, at home, punches and kicks his daughter-in-law, and he doesn't scold and beat him a lot, but he didn't expect such a rough man to still have a heart. Although Shu Qingai looks like an undeveloped baby, her appearance is not good, but she is so maintained by Mo Chen, she really envies many women in the village.

Shu Qingai knew that Li Mochen didn't like to talk to unfamiliar people, sure enough. Li Mochen gave a faint "um", which was an answer.

Chen Taohua's smile froze on her face, embarrassed.

Seeing this, Shu Qingai hurriedly smiled: "Auntie didn't thank you just now, I didn't expect that the villagers of Xinghua Village are so warm-hearted, knowing that my family is in trouble, they all come to help us, the most touching thing is that you and the village chief uncle, this village has a reasonable village chief like the village chief Uncle in charge, Ah Chen and I will feel at home, and it is a deep honor to live in this Xinghua Village."

Shu Qingai's words made the village chief and the village chief's daughter-in-law look happy, and those villagers who wanted to come to pick up and drive away from Mochen all had a smile on their faces, only the Cheng Niang who came out to stir up trouble before pursed her lips, full of unhappiness, and secretly scolded Shu Qingai in her heart for her thick skin and put gold on her face.

Shu Qingai originally just wanted to learn from the ancients to speak politely, but who knew that her words made the village chief and his daughter-in-law stunned.

"You girl is really good at talking, look at you talking like this, why are you like those daughters in the city, you are literate, is it possible that you are still literate?"

Chen Taohua was born as the daughter-in-law of the village chief, and she often goes to the city, compared with the village women in the village, her knowledge is broader, otherwise, she would not have such an idea, thinking about marrying her daughter Li Lili to a rich family, because she has a high vision.

She said it casually, in fact, it was polite, looking at Shu Qingai's mother's family, how could she have the heart to let Shu Qingai, an unpopular daughter, learn to read and write, who would have thought that Shu Qingai pretended to be shy and nodded, but it surprised the villagers and the village chief and his wife.

To say that in this era, a woman's lack of talent is virtue, and those daughters who can read and write are mostly young ladies from rich families. Like them, who is not five or six years old to carry a basket of vegetables in the mountains and fields looking for wild vegetables, who will have the spare time and spare money to provide for a daughter who is always going to marry to read and write.

Shu Qingai really didn't know what the characters of this era were before, but when she went to the market that day, she also saw a few price code cards in Xiuzhuang, and the words on them were just those traditional characters in the previous life. Fortunately, I can know hundreds of them, because I have been learning Chinese medicine with my master since I was a child, and I also have to prescribe prescriptions, and my master insisted that she practice calligraphy for several years.

Now is such a good opportunity to talk about her literacy, so that these people will not guess in the future, but it is exactly what she wants.

"Oh, I didn't expect that your group of mothers' family members would be willing to spend money to send you to learn literacy, it's really rare!"

The Qiu family was also a big surprise, this woman in their countryside can read, what a proud thing it is! The most unexpected thing is still the group of mothers' family, but no matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem like a hobby for Shu Qing?

"My sister-in-law didn't know, when I was six or seven years old, I had to go up the mountain every morning to dig wild vegetables and cut pigweed, at that time there was an old grandfather living on the mountain, he was chanting poetry in the mountains, I heard it when I passed by, I heard it once, and the old man saw that I was clever, and every time I went up the mountain, he would teach me some words, and at that time, I could already know a lot of words."

"Although you are a thin girl, look at your appearance is delicate, and there is a bearded man who loves you like this, at first glance, it is a blessed one, look, this opportunity, but it is rare in a hundred years, you are in our Xinghua Village, and the first one who can read and write among women is also the first, this is the first one in our Xinghua Village, what will happen in the future, although you come down the mountain to find your aunt, your aunt will support you! Especially those people in the village who want to bully you, don't be afraid, our men are fair. ”

Shu Qingai really didn't expect it, and it was a blessing in disguise. Not only did the Shu family get any benefits when they made a fuss, but the two of them also had a good relationship with the village chief's family.

Thinking of the lively appearance of those villagers before, I can't wait to drive my two out of Xinghua Village, now it's okay, with the support of the village chief's pungent daughter-in-law, it will be much more convenient to live in this village in the future.

"Then thank you aunt and the village chief for your care, and thank you for your concern today."

Shu Qingai smiled at the village chief and his wife, and then looked at the villagers who were still watching the excitement around the yard and were reluctant to leave.

"Say a kind word? It's not too early, everyone will go back, and the men in your family will come back one by one later, and they haven't eaten yet, so be careful to smoke you. ”

Chen Taohua heard Shu Qingai's thanks, remembered the purpose of those people in the village who instigated their men to come before, and yelled at a group of people angrily, her spicy energy made the villagers afraid of her because she was the daughter-in-law of the village chief, and when she shouted, some of those people in the village took the lead in echoing a few words, "It's not too early, if you don't go back to cook dinner, it's dark, go back quickly." ”

Treat everyone well, but Cheng Niangzi is still unwilling to pull a few people, but those people know Zeng Niangzi's thoughts, of course they don't want to be used as a gun by this woman, and they all go down the mountain with the villagers, and she has to follow back with her unwillingly.

"Okay, pick it up, we'll go back, bearded, your daughter-in-law is good, didn't you watch your mother's family make trouble and stand on your side? You have to be kind to others in the future. ”

Chen Taohua saw that Li Mochen was not as fierce as outside, so she couldn't help but say a few more words, now she regards Shu Qingai as a person to worship, a village woman who can read and write, these ten miles and eight villages, but only they have Xinghua Village.

"Hmm."

It was still a word from Mochen, just like a basin of cold water, and the box opened by Chen Taohua was poured and closed, and in an instant she lost the interest in speaking, and under the pull of the village chief, she went back.

"Sister-in-law, it's not early, you can go back quickly, Brother Dahai won't be able to find anyone when he comes back later, but he has to be in a hurry."

Speaking of Zhou Dahai, Qiu remembered that he had asked his daughter to go to the field to find someone before, why didn't he come at this time, and after listening to Shu Qingai's words, he didn't stay long, and hurriedly went down the mountain after saying a few words.

Finally quiet, Shu Qingai looked at the messy yard, the weeds in the yard were trampled by those villagers, and there were few left, thinking that it was better to make dinner first, and pull out all the grass in this yard when it was empty tomorrow.

As soon as Shu Qingai walked to the door, as if he suddenly thought of something, he turned around and saw the tall back of Li Mochen, with his back to him, picking up the bamboo he had moved back.

She lightened her steps, stepped forward in a few steps, stretched out two slender arms and hugged Li Mochen, who was standing upright, with a full embrace, only to see that Li Mochen's body stiffened, and the bamboo pole in his hand also fell to the ground, and even his breathing almost stopped.

"Stop making a fuss, let's go cook."

Li Mochen's voice was still faint, but Shu Qingai heard the undulating trembling of the line in his words.

The little head was buried in his back and shook gently.

"Limo Chen, you still care about me, don't you? Don't answer, hug you, it should be an encouragement for you, if you meet someone bullying me again in the future, just stand up like this, you're welcome! ”

"Huh!" When Li Mochen heard Shu Qingai's words, he thought it would be some sensational coquettishness, but who knew that this woman was really thick-skinned and didn't dare to compliment.

He moved his small hand away from his waist with his big hand, Shu Qingai stumbled, and looked up at this nine-foot tall man with an innocent face.

"What's wrong? People take the initiative to hug you, but you still put on a stinky face? ”

Shu Qingai pouted, but she wasn't angry, but her face was a little lower.

"It's nothing, go cook, I'm hungry after cutting bamboo for a long time."

When the words came to his mouth, Li Mochen still swallowed, he wanted to say some angry words to stimulate this thick-skinned woman as before, looking at her yellow-skinned and innocent little face, he suddenly felt a little unbearable, so he casually pulled out this sentence.

Shu Qingai was ready to let this man scold her again, but she didn't expect this man to change his usual poisonous tongue, which flattered her a little.

Dinner is very simple, there are no two or two meters left, Shu Qingai washed it with one or two, put it in holy water, plus the wild vegetables picked recently, took off the old bacon on the stove, cut it into two taels and washed it in hot water, cut it into thin slices, burned it in hot water, scooped it up, and put it into the boiled rice porridge.

The guy stayed up slowly, she walked out of the kitchen, what bamboos did Mo Chen still like to pick up in the yard, Shu Qingai didn't bother him, walked to the corner, took out the astragalus dug up from the mountain today, and dried it under the eaves.

Thinking of the rabbit in the space, Shu Qingai hurriedly entered the house, locked the door, lowered the window, and looked through the small gap to see that Li Mochen didn't pay attention to this, she went directly into the space.

Just as soon as he entered the space, Shu Qingai was dumbfounded.

The rabbit she caught for the first time, now only a whole rabbit skin remained, and it was thrown on the floor of the space, and the traces of a bonfire that had burned told her that her rabbit had become food in people's stomachs!

"Wimpy kid! Are you going too far! Do you know that I can't eat anymore, this rabbit I am going to use to raise a baby rabbit, you, you, you despicable villain, no wonder you kindly reminded me to put the rabbit in the space, it turns out that you are the idea of fighting? Look at the old lady grabbing you, don't pump your ass, the old lady won't be surnamed Shu today! ”
