Chapter 211: Some Trouble
Chapter 211 is a bit troublesome
He Fanchang laughed and said, "All over the country."
Zhou quipped: "You older generation have come down and vacated a seat for young people to do a career, I'm afraid you won't be happy." ”
"My father-in-law is not old, and he is physically strong, but he likes to train young people today, otherwise his father-in-law can work for many years in the position of village head." Yinhuan took the opportunity to pat himself on the back and quietly glanced at Li Xin.
"Speaking of which, Li's village is still Guan Wen's daughter-in-law's maiden home, right?" He Fanchang sighed and smiled: "The village chief of Lijia Village is also surnamed Li, but you know him?" ”
Don't you know......
Li Xin laughed twice, and Guan Wen said: "The ...... I know" didn't break the relationship.
He Pan often didn't chase after him and asked if he was familiar, he also knew that the surname Li in Lijia Village was a big surname, maybe it was still his own family, and it was not uncommon to know him.
Guan Wen and He Fanchang chatted for a while, He Fanchang left them for lunch, and Guan Wen and Li Xin were about to say goodbye and leave.
Yinhuan hugged his eldest son and followed Li Xin out, He Chunsheng and Guan Wen chatted a few words, Yinhuan winked at Li Xin: "How is it, I said it well today, right?" ”
Li Xin laughed and said, "You said that you missed your mouth." ”
"It was an accident." Yinhuan straightened his chest: "Anyway, my father-in-law responded to this, I helped you, don't forget!" ”
"You're asking for a reward?"
Yinhuan "hehe" smiled: "That's not it, what's that...... Next time I go to your house, you can get some delicious food, remember! ”
Li Xin smiled helplessly and shook her head, Yinhuan patted her eldest son and said, "Hurry up and call Aunt Xin, next time my mother will take you to Aunt Xin's house to eat delicious food, Aunt Xin's family will have a little brother to play with you." ”
Yinhuan and He Chunsheng now have three sons, the eldest son He Xingbin, who is only three years old this year, is still shaky and does not speak very sharply, and his temperament is not like his father, but he is a very shy boy. It's easy to make a noise. Yinhuan has always said that her eldest son was born in the wrong baby, and it should be a female baby.
He Xingbin's nickname is Bin Bin, unlike his two twin brothers, He Xingguo and He Xingbang, whose nickname is preceded by a "A" after the fix. The shouting is also more feminine.
Li Xin teased him: "Do you want to go to Aunt Xin's house to play with your little brother?" ”
Bin Bin turned his head and buried his head in Yinhuan's neck, but he didn't answer Li Xin's words.
Yinhuan smiled and said: "He's just a tomboy, I think it's supposed to be a girl's family, and he actually knows that he is very good." You haven't gotten acquainted with him yet, and when you get acquainted with him, he's sticking to you so tightly that you can't shake off like kraft candy. ”
Li Xin looked at Yinhuan enviously. Said sincerely: "Such a baby is intimate." ”
"It's only three years old, you know something." Yinhuan touched Bin Bin's head and said to Li Xin: "Then I won't keep you, I also know that there are many things in your family." Yinhuan paused: "But you should be careful yourself, although you can't get in the way of others when you pick up the river beach, but there are always some three aunts and six women who hate it, and they never beat the draft when they say some cheap things, and they can pop out a lot of dirty words when they touch their mouths up and down." If you hear it in the future, you have the right to treat them as a fart, these old pious women are always full of food and drink and have nothing to do, and other people's things are the same as what happened in their own family. It's also very real, you don't want to be angry. ”
Li Xin smiled: "As soon as I'm busy, where do I still have the heart to care what they say." It's okay, don't worry. ”
On the other side, He Chunsheng also said to Guan Wen: "Brother Guan, pay attention to yourself, there are a lot of ruffians in the village, and some of them still have a little friendship with Sun Hongyan, my father actually mentioned Sun Hongyan's name when he first wanted to make up the numbers, seeing that he hadn't done anything wrong over the years, and he was diligent in his work, but he was selected." He Chunsheng said: "It doesn't matter whether he has hostile intentions towards the Guan family or not. It's always right to be careful yourself. ”
Guan Wen thanked He Chunsheng, and it happened that Yinhuan and Li Xin also finished speaking, so Guan Wen and Li Xin said goodbye after greeting them.
Li Xin was silent on the road until Guan Wen called her, and she didn't come back to her senses, opened her eyes wide and said, "Awen, my eldest brother...... Is it the new head of Lijia Village? ”
Guan Wen nodded and smiled: "Do you still doubt that you heard it wrong?" ”
"It's not. But ......" Li Xin still felt incredible: "How could it be...... The eldest brother is only twenty-two, how can he be selected if he has no achievements......"
"Chosen or bad?" Guan Wen took her hand and said, "If you want to talk about achievements, I haven't seen Sun Hongyan have any achievements." Your eldest brother is honest and responsible, and he is calm and fair, so it is not surprising that the old village chief of your Lijia Village promoted him. ”
"Oops!" Li Xin suddenly shouted: "I remember that the old village chief of our village is my father's uncle, and he is somewhat related by blood." ”
"That's not surprising, your surname Li in Lijia Village is a big surname, and any two surnamed Li may be related to each other, what's so surprising about it."
Guan Wen replied, looked at Li Xin with a smile, Li Xin was a little embarrassed by her and said: "I was just thinking, the eldest brother has become the village head, and the father and mother are ......" said and sighed: "I always feel a little troublesome." ”
Guan Wen didn't understand what Li Xin meant.
Li Xin said: "In fact, it is not very useful to say that being the village head. You also know that any two people surnamed Li in Lijia Village may be related to each other, and my eldest brother is also surnamed Li, so if anyone and which family have a disagreement with my eldest brother to coordinate, according to my eldest brother's temperament, in case it is still two older generations, how can he persuade him? This errand is tiring, and it is easy to attract hatred, so it is better to have nothing. ”
said with emotion: "I don't know what the emperor thinks today, although the older generation of village chiefs may be stubborn and pedantic and lack vitality, there is always a generation pressed there, and it is useful to talk anywhere, and others will listen." rashly changed young people, and they were always unconvinced. ”
"You're worried about what you're doing, you have today's ideas, and you can't speculate about today's ideas."
Guan Wen pulled Li Xin and said: "Hurry up and go home, we can't take care of those things, we can do what we say today." Our small family is still busy with our own one-third of an acre of land. ”
said with a smile: "The matter of the river beach has been decided, and Uncle He has agreed, there are still many things we have to do next, and those trivial matters will be put aside." ”
Li Xin nodded, grabbed Guan Wen's arm and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you for the time being." ”
After returning to the new house, Guan Wen continued to repair the new chicken shed, and Li Xin put a sand table for Yang'er to teach him to write. Ah Mei was sitting on the side, with a big mess on her lap - she was already helping Ah Xiu embroider the mandarin duck quilt.
Li Xin pointed out Yang'er's posture and sitting posture of holding the pen for a while, and turned her head to say a few words to Ah Mei for a while, and the atmosphere was very warm.
At this time, the old man was walking around idly outside the house with a cigarette stick in his mouth, heading towards the new chicken shed next to the bamboo forest. Erhei circled around his legs.
Walking to the chicken shed, Guan Wen called grandpa, and the old man smiled and said, "Look at the dog that your daughter-in-law brought back." ”
Guan Wen looked at Erhei, who was obediently squatting on the ground with his front legs on the ground, and looked at Guan Wen.
Guan Wen was happy: "What's wrong with it?" ”
"I see you dog, I'm afraid I'm going to find a companion in the spring." Lao Guan smiled and said: "It looks like an adult at this size, if you stand up, I'm afraid it will reach my waist." ”
When the old man is older, generally speaking, the elderly will grow and shrink, that is, they will grow and shorten. The old juncture is slowly getting shorter, but fortunately, the spirit is good, every day is happy, and he eats and sleeps comfortably, and the gray hair on his head has not grown much.
Guan Wen helped Lao Guan and let him sit on the stone with the white bamboo strips on the side, knocked it with a hammer in his hand, and said: "It knows what it knows, it knows what it eats, and its own daughter-in-law must know what she is looking for." As he spoke, he smiled: "Fortunately, it's a male dog, if it's a female, you have to take care of the birth of cubs, so it's a bit of a trouble." ”
Lao Guan snorted and said: "That's not good, it's a male dog, if it's an elder, and there is no puppy cub to continue to take care of the ...... of the home and nursing home for it" As he spoke, he looked at Guan Wen: "This dog is all the truth with people, and without a man, it can't hold up the door." ”
said that he muttered a few sentences but said happily: "Wang Daoist said that there will be a baby in three or two years, and I can be regarded as holding a golden great-grandson......"
Guan Wen couldn't cry or laugh, looking at the old juncture, he was happy and talking to himself, and he didn't bother him, and did his own work.
But in the evening of the same day, Guan Ming came to the new house.
There was a simple bathroom next to the house on the thatched house, which Li Xin asked for. The thatched house is different from the modern one, there will always be a peculiar smell, and she has some psychological shadows when she bathes in that place.
At this time, Li Xin was rubbing Yang'er's back soaked in the barrel. The barrel is not big, only as high as Li Xin's thigh, and the diameter is only the distance she takes a step, which is only enough for Yang'er to get into it.
Yang'er paddled his hand in the bucket, his eyes were bright, and he squinted and smiled at Li Xin when Li Xin turned him around.
Thanks to Mrs. Shen's blessing, now they can use Zhu Ling for bathing and washing their hands, and the cleaning is cleaner. Recently, Li Xin is still studying making soap from Zhu Ling, wanting to make it smell more fragrant, and Yang Er is using a trial product at this time.
Li Xin teased Yang'er: "Is it comfortable to take a bath?" ”
"Comfortable...... Yang Er giggled, "hot." ”
But after all, it is a bucket bath, and the boiling water is also waste firewood, and the peasant family does not have many baths, and the water will be cold after a while.
Li Xin took clean warm water again, hugged Yang'er and let him stand on the ground, and poured water on him himself, even if the cleaning was completed.
was holding Yang'er to wipe his body, and heard Erhei's cry, and after a while, Ah Mei came over and said outside the door: "Sister-in-law, Dad is here." ”
