Chapter 47: The Beginning of March
At the beginning of March, the grass grows and the warbler flies, the spring river is warm, it is a good season for farming, and the area of Xiaozhuang Village is immersed in a whole cold winter at this moment, as if waking up, you can see people in the fields barefoot anytime and anywhere.
Xiao family, hall house.
It's noon, the table is full of fragrant dishes, just smelling the smell makes people's appetite move, not to mention that this dish looks pretty good today, there are meat and vegetables, and there is even a four-happiness ball.
Jiang Ning pushed Xiao Sheng out of the room, and saw Linlang on the table at a glance, and couldn't help but have a smile on his face.
"Mother, what a good day is today, how can the food be so rich?"
Xiao Zhiqing was helping to set up the dishes and chopsticks, and when she saw them come out, she raised a smile, and when she heard her question again, she simply answered directly for Liu.
"Sister-in-law, I have to farm in March, my mother went to the town to buy a lot of vegetables and meat as soon as she was happy, saying that she wanted to eat a good meal, and she would have the strength to plough the fields when the sun came down, so today our family can eat with an open stomach, if you eat less, maybe your mother will have to be angry!"
The little girl's coquettish voice made Liu Shi glare, but she was not afraid, but she leaned towards her with a smile, which made Liu more and more helpless, shook her head, and set her eyes on Xiao Sheng and Jiang Ning.
"Don't listen to Qing'er's nonsense, you can eat as much as you can, let's clean up if you can't finish eating, and eat the next meal, the weather is not hot yet, it's okay to stay for two days, so it won't be wasted."
"With my mother's words, then I don't have to eat to support my stomach." Jiang Ning smiled and agreed.
The four of them sat down and ate in silence.
A quarter of an hour later.
Liu took the lead in putting down the dishes and chopsticks, scooped a bowl of soup and handed it to Xiao Zhiqing beside her, telling her to eat more slowly, and then she would set her eyes on Jiang Ning and Xiao Sheng again.
"The weather has been just right in the past two days, and I have checked the yellow calendar, which is suitable for sowing, Ning'er, after Qing'er is used well, I will take her out for a walk, and I will leave these things to you at home."
Jiang Ning was about to scoop the soup, and when he heard this sentence, he was inexplicably moved, raised his eyes to look at Liu, blinked his eyes, and suddenly asked with a bright light: "Mother, our family has land, why haven't we heard of it?" ”
Liu bowed slightly.
"Yes, when I first moved over, Tongli Zheng bought a few acres of wasteland nearby, and then it was abandoned for a long time after being delayed for various reasons, not a few days ago, when I came back from the town, I saw that the youngest son of the old man Gu in the village was using cattle to plough the land, so he spent a tael of silver to ask him to help reclaim the land, but I didn't have time to look, the weather is just right today, so I plan to go and see."
The ins and outs are very detailed, Jiang Ning suddenly realized, no wonder she has been married for so long and has not heard of land, yesterday she was still thinking that the weather is almost warmer and it is time to plough the land, it doesn't matter if there is no family, she still has a few acres of land from the Jiang family to come back, I never thought that the family also has land.
In this way, the family is not so poor!
Jiang Ning thought about it for a while, and he didn't rush to drink the soup, so he looked at Liu and said, "Mother, why don't you take me to see it too?" ”
"You're going too?" Liu was a little surprised.
Jiang Ning replied with a smile: "Didn't I go back to a few acres of land and fruit groves from the Jiang family earlier, and I haven't been to see it, now is a good time, let's go and see it together, and then we can farm together." ”
Liu was silent, his eyebrows were twisted into a rope, and he glanced at Xiao Sheng worriedly, and the embarrassment on his face was fully revealed.
Xiao Sheng was very sensitive, and immediately guessed Liu's thoughts.
I saw him take the bowl in front of her naturally, and after skillfully scooping a bowl of soup and handing it over, he calmly spoke: "Mother, since Ning'er wants to go, let her go, and it doesn't hurt for me to be alone at home." ”
"But ......"
If it was a normal time, she would be happy to have a helper, but two days ago, she learned that Baichuan Academy would open on the seventh day of the first month, and Xiao Sheng would definitely have to go at that time, and she also wanted to leave more time for the couple.
After all, the newlywed Yan'er is the time for honey to blend oil.
It's just that Xiao Sheng has opened his mouth, what else can she do?
"That'...... All right. ”
Jiang Ning saw that Liu agreed and saw Xiao Sheng personally scooping the soup for himself, so he hurriedly cast a grateful look, and then drank the soup obediently.
After the four of them finished their lunch, Jiang Ning cleaned up the table with his hands and feet and went to the back to wash the dishes.
Xiao Sheng couldn't help but show a stunned expression when he saw Jiang Ning, who was so diligent, and shook his head for a while before revealing a helpless expression.
When others heard that they were going to go to the ground, they couldn't wait to hide elsewhere, but she couldn't wait to talk to the past, and she looked like she was afraid of not taking her, which was really different.
Xiao Zhiqing, who came out of the house after changing her clothes, couldn't help but sigh when she saw this scene: "I can see that our sister-in-law doesn't love the land too deeply." ”
Xiao Sheng originally nodded in agreement, but Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Xiao Zhiqing's shaking head and sighing, put away a gentle smile, sank his face, and said angrily: "Qing'er, she is your sister-in-law." ”
What are you talking about?
Xiao Zhiqing was instantly silent, hid behind Liu, and stuck out her tongue at Xiao Sheng.
Liu naturally protected his little daughter, but when he looked at Xiao Sheng, he couldn't help but ask worriedly: "Sheng'er, it's really okay for you to be alone, otherwise let Qing'er stay with you, bring a cup of tea, send a water, someone to accompany you, it's always good, and my mother can rest assured, isn't it?" ”
In fact, Liu has been emphasizing that this incident is not without reason.
During this time, Jiang Ning has been treating Xiao Sheng, although the movement in the house is not big, but it is not nothing, and several times Liu can hear the muffled snort coming from the house, you can imagine how painful it is.
Later, when I overheard Jiang Ning and Xiao Sheng chatting, I learned that Xiao Sheng suddenly fell into a coma.
It doesn't look like a big deal, but who knows if there will be an accident?
For now, it's just that they haven't said it, and she pretends not to know.
But there is a difference between not knowing and not knowing.
Now that she is in her heart, the words she says are naturally a little unpleasant.
Therefore, Xiao Zhiqing, who was standing behind her, was suddenly unhappy, pulled her sleeve and said angrily: "Mother, I am not a maid who serves people." ”
Xiao Sheng was a little helpless when he saw that she reacted so much, especially when he saw that Liu's face was not very good, so he hurriedly took the lead in speaking: "Mother, you can rest assured, besides, you and Qing'er went to the town and the mountains before, didn't I stay at home alone, and I was also clean, just enough to warm the book." ”
At this point, Liu couldn't say anything, but he thought that he would have a chance to ask Jiang Ning what was going on in that coma?
