The two talked and laughed, and as soon as they stepped into the intersection, Lan Yao's eyes lit up, and he looked happy, "Auntie, auntie, are you back?" Lan Yao stood up excitedly, his little hands waving all the time.

"Lan Yao is up," Su Yanniang stepped forward, "Are you so obedient at home?" "Although Lan Yao is the child of the second couple, this child is sensible and distressing.

"Four girls, you take Lan Yao to play, I'll go get lunch." The absence of the two people in the family who like to cause trouble is simply happy, Su Yanniang looked at the smiling faces of Lan Yao and the four girls, listened to their laughter, swept away the tiredness just now, and even the steps were much lighter.

After lunch, Su Yanniang sent the four girls to take Lan Yao to rest. She pulled the basket of live crayfish herself, took her tools, and walked to the river near her house.

Many people greeted Su Yanniang on the road, and some people asked a few words curiously, but Su Yanniang haha, she didn't want to reveal half of this thing for the time being. Especially now that I don't know the situation, the neighbors all know the situation of the Lan family, and they come forward to ask out of concern, and everyone doesn't pay attention to it after that.

Squatting by the river, Su Yanniang handled the crayfish neatly, first removing the shrimp line, and then brushing it several times until the crayfish shell could not see the soil. After the last one was washed, she stood up and stretched her waist, her hands into fists, and gently hammered her calves and thighs, squatting for too long and feeling a little numb.

After standing for a while, looking at the sun that had gradually set, she packed the washed crayfish and walked in the direction of home. According to the usual work time, the sun will go down completely before dinner, and the two of them will come back after eating, and now go home, first pickle the crayfish, hide it, get up early tomorrow morning to get it, and then set off to the city.

As soon as she thought that there would be no free ox cart to sit on tomorrow, Su Yanniang's good-looking willow eyebrows began to wrinkle. She didn't get much today, but she felt that one person couldn't bring so much, just the money for the car, she thought about it, take the car when she went, save money when she came back, come back when she sold it, walk a little earlier, generally only two hours.

Gritting her teeth, she still had to take the only bus in the town, "Fourth girl, you go to the entrance of the village and tell the uncle who drove the car, I will make a donkey cart tomorrow." Su Yanniang laboriously moved the crayfish into the kitchen, took out a large vat that was washed and dried, poured the crayfish into it, and then sprinkled all the ingredients she had prepared at noon.

After doing this series of work, she was tired and sweaty, in fact, she really didn't know how the business was, she thought that she might need to try those people tomorrow, so she prepared a little more, as long as it was done.

Wiping her sweat, she clapped her hands, took out the lid of the pot, and covered it. Then she started to make dinner, it was just the three of them, and it took her a little while to make it, she got some potatoes and bacon, and steamed it directly on the rice. After a while, the fragrance overflowed, so that Lan Yao couldn't help but trot to the kitchen. After eating dinner happily, when the four girls were brushing their rice bowls, Lan Xiuwu and his wife walked in with each other's support.

"Sister-in-law......" looked pitiful, with a sad expression, staring at Su Yanniang, "Yo, the second child is back, come on, come on, hurry up and take a rest." Su Yanniang stood in front of the door and said in a cheerful tone.

She knew that it was not easy to work in the fields over there, but she had worked for four or five years in her previous life, until she was sold later, so she didn't have to work or worry about filling her stomach.

"Sister-in-law, that job is really not done by people, look at my hands, they are worn out with a hoe."

"Yes, yes, sister-in-law, look at it, my hands are blistered, I'm so tired." Without waiting for Lan Xiuwu to finish speaking, Gao Shi also hurriedly stretched out his hand, the round and jade Gao family, a pair of white and tender hands, did have a few blisters.

"Sister-in-law, we ......" Lan Xiuwu thought of the words that had just been on them, no, they had discussed for a day today, and he didn't dare to say it.

"Sister-in-law, we won't go tomorrow, I'm too tired." Gao glared at Lan Xiuwu and hurriedly made up for Lan Xiuwu's unfinished words.

"No, no, sister-in-law, we're not going again. It's just too tiring. Gao said again, and then the two pretended not to walk, looking pitiful.

"Sister-in-law, really, you see, I only have one leg left," Lan Xiuwu was most afraid of talking about his leg before, but now he actually took the initiative to mention it, and he still felt weak.

Su Yanniang wanted to laugh in her heart, it was only one day of work, how could she admit defeat, but Su Yanniang didn't want to let them go so easily.

"In that case, then you should rest for a day." Su Yanniang is not very easy to fool, she will not let go, if they don't let them make good money, don't let them move their muscles and bones, they can't understand the hard work of making money to support their families.

"Sister-in-law, let's not go there in the future, it's too hard there," Lan Xiuwu looked at Su Yanniang who didn't let go, he really couldn't pull it off, but if he didn't say it, the Gao family would come to make trouble again in a while, so he could only say it cheekily.

"How can this be, this family is ours, and everyone has to contribute." Su Yanniang won't let it go easily, "Besides, look at you today, you can earn ten catties of rice and come back." "This is a real fruit of labor, these ten catties of rice are enough for them to eat for several days, and it is not enough to prepare the rations of the second couple.

"Big ...... Sister-in-law, I really can't do it, you see, my hand can't be recovered in three or five days. Gao just wanted to make excuses, but he didn't want to go again.

"Actually, it's okay not to go." Hearing Su Yanniang's words, Lan Xiuwu and his wife looked at Ai Yiliang, and they were excited. The sister-in-law finally relented, so she didn't have to go.

"However, you have to ensure that you can get back ten catties of rice every day," as soon as this sentence came out, the faces of the second couple immediately turned cloudy, and instantly became gloomy, "Otherwise, I can't guarantee that there is something for you to eat." Su Yanniang spread her hands, this is the truth. What I didn't teach them in my previous life, I want them all to pay back in this life.

"Sister-in-law, we really can't do that job," Lan Xiuwu was stabbed by the Gao clan and had no choice but to speak.

"Yes, you can not go to work at Lizheng's house, but the rations that should be paid still have to be paid, and the family depends on a few of us, and if you don't work hard, the whole family will have to drink the northwest wind." Su Yanniang said angrily.

"Sister-in-law, it's not right for you to say that, what about the third uncle and the fourth girl, don't they also work? Why do you want the two of us to earn the family's rations? The Gao family was immediately dissatisfied, as if this family only relied on them.

"No, second brother and sister, you misunderstood me." Su Yanniang said softly.

"Misunderstanding, what did I misunderstand, sister-in-law, you can't be so partial, let the third uncle go to school, and give Mr. a lot of money every year, the two of us are tired and tired, just for them?" Gao's voice grew louder and louder, and she didn't believe it. I have suffered such a big grievance, and there will be no one to judge.

"Oh, the second brother and sister feel wronged?" Su Yanniang now knows the handle of the second child and their husband and wife, doesn't she just like to bully good and fear evil? I just spoke a little softer, and people immediately got on the pole, which is simply too good at doing things.

"That's for sure, sister-in-law, if it's fair, everyone works together, and we have nothing to say about it, but now let's go to work, everyone else is enjoying themselves, sister-in-law, I'm not stupid." Ignoring Lan Xiuwu's obstruction, Gao insisted on saying everything in his heart.

"What the second brother and sister said is quite reasonable," Su Yanniang looked at Gao seriously, with a contemplative look, "That's it, the third uncle and the fourth girl are still young, and when their eldest brother is here, I also promised to take good care of the two of them, I did the work of the two of them, second brother and sister, I don't know if this is fair?" Su Yanniang's remarks have been rehearsed countless times in her mind, but she still pretended to be and did not blurt out immediately.

"This sister-in-law...... "It will be Lan Xiuwu's turn to have an opinion, "Sister-in-law, didn't you say before that my legs and feet were inconvenient?" Why do you want me to work now? After Lan Xiuwu finished speaking, Gao kept staring, he pretended not to see, anyway, he was lazy if he could, he didn't want to go to work in the fields anymore.

"Second brother, it was the sister-in-law who was wrong before." Su Yanniang looked sincere, "Really, my sister-in-law is wrong," Su Yanniang sighed slightly, "As the second brother and sister said, being a man is to be fair, and everyone must be treated equally, and our family should not favor any one." Su Yanniang's words are already a conclusion.

Anyway, the words asking for fairness just now were put forward by Gao, and now Su Yanniang immediately threw it back to her, which caught Gao off guard, and she didn't know what to say.

The battle of mouths was not won, and the two could only quickly wipe their bodies, stinky sweat all over their bodies. Although she didn't say that she wouldn't work, they would definitely not be able to do it on the second day, and Su Yanniang didn't plan to let them work on the second day, but Li Zheng was there, she decided to go tomorrow and let Li Zheng directly sign them a month's work day.

Before dawn on the second day, before the rooster crowed, Su Yanniang had already quietly gotten up, and today she had to catch the only donkey cart in the village that entered the town, she couldn't be too late. If you miss this donkey cart, your little abacus today is probably going to be in vain.

After a quick freshening, she moved to the kitchen and saw the crayfish that had been marinated all night, exuding bursts of fragrance, with a faint smile on her face, and these little things were still cute.

She immediately lit a fire, washed the pot, added oil, first stir-fried garlic, chili, perilla and other spices on the side, and then poured the marinated crayfish into the hot pot and oiled it.
