Chapter 58: Gossip

Shen Shiliu was a little upset, in just a few days, Du Niangzi, who had finally been raised a little rounder, had lost a lot of weight, faster than losing weight!

"Auntie, are you sick? What about the Lotus Girl? Shen Shiliu asked, looking around and not seeing Song Lianhua's shadow, no one should have come.

Du Niangzi coughed a few times, and Shen Shimei patted her to calm down, and said, "I only came for three days, and I never came back after that......"

When Shen Shiliu heard this, this Song Lotus was really ruthless enough, and he said that he didn't care about it.

"You're so sick that she left you alone? How have you eaten these days? Shen Shiliu asked, with Du Niangzi like this, there must be no way to cook.

"She came to deliver the food, and when she put down the things, she said that the family had left beforehand." Du Niangzi said.

Shen Shiliu nodded, knowing that the delivery of food was not bad.

"I'll make something first, and we'll go back to my house when you're done eating!" As soon as Shen Shimei's words fell, Du Niangzi cried directly: "Pomegranate, I ......"

"It's okay aunt, I'll cook first, don't cry." Shen Shiliu said and went to the kitchen first.

The kitchen was also a mess, and the pot looked like it had attracted a lot of flies, which was miserable.

Shen Pomegranate was busy in the kitchen, and there were still some noodles at home, Shen Pomegranate boiled water directly with noodles, made a handful of chopped green onions, and cooked a bowl of hand-rolled noodles.

Du Niangzi looked at the hot noodles and felt a lot of emotion in her heart.

"Auntie, you eat slowly, I'll clean up the yard first." Shen Shiliu said and went out first.

Everything that should be washed is cleaned, everything is organized, and if you just leave it like this, you will be able to grow maggots in a few days.

Shen Pomegranate was cleaning up, Song Lianhua came with lunch, seeing that Shen Pomegranate was cleaning up, her face was a little embarrassed.

"The Lotus girl is here." Shen Shiliu glanced up, asked, and then continued to do his own work, ignoring Song Lianhua.

Song Lianhua felt bored, so she entered Du Niangzi's door and saw Du Niangzi eating boiled noodles, and her face was embarrassed again.

"Auntie, I have ...... here" Song Lianhua didn't finish speaking, and listened to Du Niangzi say: "I have something to eat, I will go back to Shen's house in the afternoon, and Miss Lotus will not have to be so troublesome in the future." ”

Song Lianhua's face turned red all of a sudden, this time she completely offended people to the end.

Du Niangzi is not stupid, she really said that let Du Xuanmo marry Song Lianhua, and her mother-in-law will not have good fruits to eat in the future.

Song Lianhua saw Du Niangzi's attitude towards herself, and she also knew that she was in vain, so she didn't even put down the meal, so she left in disgrace.

Shen Shiliu saw that Song Lianhua was gone, and said, "Lotus girl, is she leaving?" If you have time or more, come and play! ”

Song Lianhua was so angry that she stomped her feet and left quickly.

"You can't blame me, I'll give you a chance." Shen Shiliu said, if Song Lianhua is really a good person, she will definitely be able to serve Du Niangzi well, and there will be nothing to do with her Shen Shimei, it is Song Lianhua who is not angry, no wonder her.

After cleaning up for a while, Shen Shiliu was able to clean up all the messes in this yard, washed his hands and entered the house.

Du Niangzi had already eaten, Shen Pomegranate cleaned up, and took Du Niangzi out of the door.

Du Niangzi is now sick, and she has no strength after walking a few steps, and Shen Shimei is carrying Du Niangzi all the way back to Chaoxia Village.

Du Niangzi felt a little guilty in her heart, this Shen Pomegranate was really good to her.

When I entered Chaoxia Village, I happened to meet the Qian family, and the Qian family saw that Shen Pomegranate was still carrying a person on his back, so he asked, "What is the pomegranate doing here?" ”

"Auntie, I'll do something." Shen Shiliu didn't say anything, it is estimated that Qian Shi also felt embarrassed when he saw her, so he said, "Auntie, I'll go first!" ”

"Cheng, go back quickly!" Qian nodded hurriedly, and his eyes roamed around Du Niangzi again.

On the way, I met a few more people from the village, and Shen Shiliu also left first in a perfunctory manner, and he was relieved when he got home.

"Pomegranate, you're back!" Zheng looked at the sky, it was already afternoon, and she was a little anxious if Shen Shiliu didn't come back.

Shen Shiliu hurriedly put Du Niangzi down, and Zheng looked at Du Niangzi, and his face was not very good.

"Mother, my aunt is sick again, let's boil some ginger tea first." Shen Shiliu said, seeing that the Zheng family was not very happy, he pulled the corner of Zheng's clothes, and the Zheng family couldn't resist the girl, so he went to boil ginger tea first.

Du Niangzi didn't dare to make a sound, she went back to the room and lay down first, Shen Shimei took water to wipe her face and hands, and then went to do her own work.

Hong Xiuhua was already half dry, and Shen Shiliu hurried over to help.

"You just came back, just take a breath and do it again, I'm used to this work, and it's a lot faster." Hong Xiuhua said, and quickly poured a glass of water for Shen Shimei.

Shen Pomegranate drank the water in two gulps, and then said, "It's okay, I'm not tired." Then he hurried to work.

Zheng boiled ginger tea and sent it to Du Niangzi, their family really got a mother-in-law, and the whole family was waiting, but they didn't appreciate it.

Zheng carried a basket with water and went to the ground to deliver water to the Shen family father and son, and when Shen's father heard that Du Niangzi was back, although he didn't say anything, he was also unhappy.

"Mother, after all, it's Brother Du's mother, so don't be angry." Shen Shu said.

Zheng pouted: "It's just that she has no one to take care of her and is sick now, or I will definitely have to have a good fight with her, why don't you take our pomegranate seriously!" ”

When Father Shen heard this, he said, "Forget it, don't show it in front of others, it's not good." ”

Zheng snorted, this time it should be to give face to the pomegranate, if Du Niangzi bullies her pomegranate like this next time, look at her and Du Niangzi's face is full of flowers!

In the evening, Du Niangzi finally drank the mutton soup, and the familiar taste made Du Niangzi's nose sour, and she began to think about her son.

"It's been this month, and I don't know how Xuan Mo did in his exam?" Du Niangzi muttered in the room again.

Shen Shiliu thought for a while and said, "I should have finished the exam, but it will take a few days to enlarge the list, but I heard that there will be good news, aunt, you just wait." ”

Du Niangzi nodded, although she missed her son, she had to stay up, and when her son came back, she would be able to go home well.

Shen Pomegranate saw that it was not early, so he put the loquat water at the head of Du Niangzi's bed, and Du Niangzi saw the long-lost loquat water, so she said: "It's still the pomegranate girl's heart." ”

Shen Shiliu smiled faintly, wondering if Du Niangzi was really scared in the past few days.

One day, Shen Pomegranate had just come back from fishing fish and shrimp by the river, and he met Qian again on the way, and Qian took the initiative to come up and chat with Shen Pomegranate this time.

"Pomegranate, I saw you carrying a woman on your back that day, whose relative are you?" Qian asked.

"It's not a relative, it's just an acquaintance, and there is no one at home now, so it's just a matter of living in my house for the time being." Shen Shiliu said.

Qian wanted to say something, but Shen Shiliu said: "Auntie, I said before, I won't let Brother Shuliang marry me, Brother Shuliang won't get into trouble, you can rest assured!" ”

Qian hurriedly smiled and said: "Look at what you said, why did you go there, then you are busy first, and my aunt won't pull you to say more!" ”

Shen Shiliu sent Qian away with a smile, and then sighed, she also understood what Qian meant.

Shen Shiliu returned home, and Qian also hurried home, and then discussed with Han Laofu'er.

"There is a woman from the pomegranate family, I heard Widow Xu say, that woman is from the county town to rent a book stall, why do you want to take people back to take care of them for no reason?" Qian said.

Han Lao Fu'er frowned and scolded: "Widow Xu? It's this long-tongued woman again, why are you still associating with her? Have you forgotten that those words were passed by Widow Xu before? Can't you have a long heart? ”

Qian's face was entangled: "I just walked and heard it, but if it was really a bookstall renter, wouldn't it be ......?"

"What's wrong? People just bring someone back to live for a while, and you don't care? "Han Lao Fu'er is in a bad mood.

Qian hurriedly said: "I didn't mean that, I heard that the son of the bookstall has a dignified appearance and knowledge, Shen Shimei doesn't have a fancy for others, otherwise he is not a relative, why would he take the old lady back?" ”

Han Lao'er thought about it, although there was some truth, but he still shook his head: "When the Shen family borrowed money from us, didn't they also borrow it happily, people are just kind, what do you want to do so much?" ”

"But ......" Qian wanted to say something more, but he was kicked out by Han Laofu'er, and Han Laofu'er didn't like to listen to this.

Qian sat in the courtyard and was distracted, now that his daughter is married, there is such a son left by his side. Because of Widow Xu's stinky mouth, now everyone in the village knows about it, and they are gossiping in private, she can't let her family book be poked in the backbone like this for a long time.

"Mother, why are you in a daze?" Han Shuliang came back with firewood, and asked after seeing Qian Shi in a daze for a long time.

"It's nothing, you can rest for a while." Qian looked at Han Shuliang busy, such a good son, he couldn't be wronged, she pondered for a while, and took this opportunity to completely break Shen Shimei's thoughts, and she couldn't let the Shen family pick out the reason.

After dinner, Qian went out to Shen's house, Shen Shimei was looking at the fire boiling broth, seeing that Qian was coming, the corners of his eyes twitched, feeling that it was not a good thing.

"Auntie is here, sit down, I'll pour you tea." Shen Shiliu said.

"Okay, good, pomegranate is really sensible." Qian had a smile on his face, it was best to be amiable today, and not to make contradictions.

The Zheng family in the house heard the voice, so he came out, and saw that it was the Qian family who also went over and sat down.

"Why is her aunt free today? Old Fu'er's legs should be big, right? Zheng said with a smile.

Qian replied: "Yes, Lao Fu'er's leg has been healed, and he has been raising it for several months, and a winter has passed, no matter how bad it is, we really have no hope." ”

Zheng shook his head: "How can it be so miserable, life should still be better." ”

"That's what my sister-in-law said." Qian responded, and then said: "The life of watching my sister-in-law's family is good, I have no worries about food and clothing, and I know many people in the county." "There is something in Qian's words.
