Chapter 21: Injuries
"How's it going, are you tired today?"
At night, Wang said to Erlin, who was lying on the side.
"It's fine."
Erlin said casually, it was originally the same, and there were so many people today.
But even though he said that, the man fell asleep after a while in bed.
Since Wang's confinement, their sleeping position has returned to its previous appearance, Erlin sleeps inside, and Wang's sleeps outside.
Wang looked at the sleeping figure of her man and didn't speak, and after looking at it for a long time, she slowly turned around and fell asleep.
The next day, the Ding family went up the mountain to carry firewood again, and Youcheng was also called together.
Only Wang and his three children are left at home.
Youxin and righteousness are children in the end, although they like to play with their hearts, but they still can't help but go to the village to find friends to play.
Since seeing the speed at which Erlin fell asleep last night, the Wang family has also started to get busy.
She still knows how to peel corn, not as much as yesterday, but much faster.
She peeled corn while Xin'er was awake and began to do needlework after Xin'er fell asleep.
What she has to do is a purse and a handkerchief, which are all jobs that she asked the embroidery village in Erlin Town to take over for her after the autumn harvest.
Because of the doctor's words, her parents-in-law and Erlin don't let her do any work, all she can do is cook and do some housework, as well as take care of the children.
In this way, she has more free time, so she wants to do some embroidery work to earn some money, so she asks Erlin to take over the work for her.
At the beginning, Erlin didn't agree, doing needlework hurt her eyes, Erlin didn't want her to do needlework so soon, she still had to say that he agreed.
At the same time, she also promised Erlin that she could only do it occasionally, not for too long, and she could only do it for half an hour at most.
Therefore, although she also did it some time ago, she had very little time to do it, and more she was still doing some housework.
And when she saw Erlin's appearance last night, there was some change in her heart.
She knew the reason why Erlin did this, so she felt even more guilty, if it weren't for the fact that she couldn't do those jobs, Erlin wouldn't be so tired.
She just wanted to say that if she could do more embroidery work and earn more money to come back to improve the lives of the people in her family occasionally, wouldn't Erlin not be so tired.
So, today, after she did all the work that should be done, she took out the fabrics to make purses and embroidery.
She also knew it in her heart, and she would put them all away when the time was almost up, and Erlin would not find out when she came back.
There were many people in the Ding family who went up the mountain, and it didn't take long for the pine trees that were cut down to all move back.
They still tend to pull the trunk back and cut it into pieces, leaving a lot of wood when chopping, which is best used to make a fire.
So, the trunk of the pine tree was basically cut after it was moved back.
When all the firewood was brought back, it was already winter, and as soon as the beginning of winter passed, it was already officially winter.
The people of Wanshan Village do not plant in winter, because the fertility of the land cannot keep up, which hurts the land.
Farmers cherish their land and will not do anything that hurts the land, even if they will have more income, but there are not many people who do that, and it will be difficult to raise land after frequent land use now.
Ding Dashan is a person who cherishes the land, so the land of the Ding family is empty in winter, and the Ding family is also idle.
As soon as she was free, the Wang family also had someone to take care of the children, and she had a longer time to do embroidery work, and the Zhang family was also working hard to do the embroidery work, after all, the money was all loaded by herself.
Time has come to the winter solstice in a flash.
Two days ago, the Wang family handed over the embroidery work and got 70 copper plates, which is a lot of income.
The Wang family can pay embroidery once a month, and each time he has embroidery money ranging from 50 to 80 yuan.
It didn't take long for her to let Erlin go to the town to hand in the embroidery purse, and at the same time, she also asked Erlin to buy two catties of pork belly with embroidery money and come back to improve the food for her family.
This embroidery work earned a total of eighty-two wen, and it took more than a month to earn so much.
It cost thirty-two wen to sell meat, and there are fifty wen left.
When Zheng heard Erlin say that the meat was bought with the money from Wang's embroidery work, she knew what her daughter-in-law thought.
Zheng didn't say anything at the time, and accepted it.
However, when Erlin came back from buying fish again, the Zheng family secretly looked for the Wang family.
"Chunhua, I know what you think, the first time my mother also received your kindness, there was indeed something wrong at that time.
However, you see that the farming is now idle, and the family has not done anything, so you should stop spending money to buy meat for the family.
Besides, what will your sister-in-law do if you go on like this, do you have to take out your own money to buy meat like you?
Chunhua, I know you're just trying to make amends, but it's really inappropriate, you know? ”
"Mother, I didn't think about it so much, really, I just, I just ......"
Wang was anxious when she heard it, she really didn't mean that.
"Mother knows, I think your sister-in-law knows, but you can't do this, you know?"
"I'm ......, I know, mother, I won't be like this in the future."
Wang thought clearly when he heard his mother-in-law say this, and he also understood what his mother-in-law meant, so he hurriedly responded.
Since Zheng said to Wang, Wang has changed, and he doesn't always let Erlin buy meat and come back.
But her embroidery work did not stop, her mother-in-law was right, Youyi was growing up, and she had to save money for him to marry a wife.
There is also a heart, the heart is still young, although the doctor said that she is the same as an ordinary child, but she also has to prevent her from getting sick or something, and it will cost a lot of money to get sick once.
So, she had to work hard to earn money and save money.
However, since Erlin was idle at home, she has obviously less time to do embroidery work, Erlin is very strict with her, and Zheng's is also afraid that she will be tired and will not let her do it for too long.
The winter solstice is a very important festival for the people.
"Old woman, you go to the town tomorrow to see if there is any mutton to sell, if there is one, buy a pound and come back, if not, buy some other meat and come back."
The night before the winter solstice, Ding Dashan said very much to his mother-in-law, Zheng.
"Got it."
Zheng didn't hesitate to agree.
On the day of the winter solstice, the Ding family will eat better as long as there is no accident, and this year is no exception.
The next morning, the Zheng family got up early, and this is the winter solstice, so if you want to buy mutton, you have to go early.
At noon, Zheng came back, and instead of buying mutton, he bought some pork.
"Old man, I didn't buy it, I've already decided to go to someone's house, and some of the rest want to keep it for themselves, so I bought some pork and pork bones and came back."
When Zheng came back, he said to his old man.
"Alas, forget it, let's take the pork bones and stew them, add some radish and beans together."
"I know, it's up to you."
In the evening, the family ate hot radish stewed bones, fried meat, and the children ate happily, and even the heart was fed a little bone broth.
Xin'er was very curious about this taste, and she was very happy to eat it.
She's been four months old, and she's been feeding and breastfeeding, and this is the first time she's ever eaten anything other than milk.
However, Wang only dipped her in some soup with chopsticks and gave her two bites, but she really didn't give it anymore, for fear that she would eat too much and make her stomach.
Xin'er couldn't eat anything delicious, so she cried with her throat, but it was useless to cry, but she accelerated the pace of her sleep, crying and crying, and she fell asleep.
In this regard, Wang also found it funny.
