Chapter 52: Ask for Help
In the early morning, a light rain was dripping......
As the so-called spring rain is as expensive as oil, there is nothing wrong with seeing this rainy day, but it's a pity that I can't get up so early and can't sleep again.
Shaw House.
On the dining table in the hall are two drawers of steamed buns and a large pot of porridge.
Jiang Ning finally got up early to wash up, and was sitting down for breakfast, when the sound of rain outside sounded, ticking, so lively.
"It's raining."
Xiao Zhiqing came out of the house with a yawn, sat on the bench, took the clean dishes and chopsticks next to her, took a bowl of porridge and took a small sip, and looked at the already wet ground at the gate while drinking.
It stands to reason that Xiao Zhiqing's eating appearance is unruly, but today's breakfast, Xiao Sheng and Liu have used it early, and only Jiang Ning and Xiao Zhiqing are left, so they don't abide by so many rules.
"Sister-in-law, do you think we can still go to the ground today?"
Xiao Zhiqing asked a little, picked up a bun and began to eat.
Jiang Ning also followed her example, holding a porridge bowl, facing the gate, looking at the rain outside, frowning slightly, and after thinking for a while, he replied softly: "Yes, this rain is not heavy, and it will stop soon." ”
"I don't look like I'm going to stop." Xiao Zhiqing pursed her lips and said, and even sighed regretfully, "I used to listen to my brother who studied next door to talk about spring sleepiness, autumn fatigue, and summer napping, I still don't believe it, I really can't get up this morning, and I can't wait to sleep again." ”
Jiang Ning naturally heard this, but he didn't expect that there would be people here to say this, and when he looked at Xiao Zhiqing again, he found that this Nizi's mouth did not stop, but the eyelids closed from time to time.
"I'm really sleepy, so I'll go back and sleep again."
Xiao Zhiqing replied sullenly, and she didn't know whether she heard this or not.
When Liu came out of the backyard under the drizzle, he saw Xiao Zhiqing's little appearance of being sleepy or not, and shook his head helplessly.
But she really felt sorry for her daughter, so she didn't force her to follow her to the ground.
"Okay, go back to sleep when you're full, there are me and your sister-in-law in the field."
Xiao Zhiqing happened to have just finished drinking a bowl of porridge, and when she heard this as soon as she was a little energetic, her eyes couldn't help but light up, she quickly put down the dishes and chopsticks, hugged Liu, and said with a smile: "Mother, you are so good." ”
Liu pinched Xiao Zhiqing's cheek angrily, and then said: "But you are not allowed to sleep for a long time, I will tell your eldest brother when the time comes, let him stare at the hour and call you to get up, and when you get up, you will embroider a handkerchief for me, you know?" ”
"Huh?"
Xiao Zhiqing instantly cried with a sad face.
"Mother, can you not embroider?"
Seeing that she started to cheat, Liu immediately put on a straight face and said, "If you don't embroider, you will go to the ground, and you will go back to sleep." ”
"No, mother, I'm sleepy."
"Embroider the veil, or go to the ground, you choose!"
In the end, Xiao Zhiqing still couldn't defeat the sleepy worm, sucked her little nose, and snorted: "Then I'll get up and embroider the veil later." ”
With that, she dragged her tired body back into the house.
Jiang Ning watched almost dumbfounded as the Liu family disciplined her daughter, and did not suddenly withdraw her gaze until she closed the door.
"Mother, Qing'er is only ten years old."
A ten-year-old child is a little kid at all, and it's normal to play if he can, and it's normal to be a little lazy, especially now, don't say it's a child, even she's sleepy.
However, as if he didn't hear the meaning of her words, Liu replied with a smile: "Ten years old is not young, and I will show her her in-laws in a few years, and I don't know which family dares to ask for her playful temperament." ”
Did you go so far?
Jiang Ning didn't keep up with Liu's thoughts for a while, until she felt stared at by her hot gaze, and then replied with an embarrassed smile: "Qing'er has a good temperament and is lively, and when she reaches the age, people from ten miles and eight villages will rush to come to kiss, besides, isn't there still a few years, maybe Xianggong will go to high school in the next two years, and then Qing'er's worth will skyrocket, maybe she can still be an official lady." ”
This really touched Liu's heart.
I saw that after hearing these words, her face smiled gently and proudly, but the words she said were extremely humble.
"I can't say that, Sheng'er has studied hard for so many years, and he deserves it in high school, but it's also a good thing to be able to bless Qing'er."
"Mother, that's exactly what Li'er."
Jiang Ning coaxed Liu a little and then cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks.
As Jiang Ning said before, the rain didn't fall for long, but it stopped as soon as it was cleaned up.
After Jiang Ning and Liu said a word to Xiao Sheng, the two of them put on a robe, carried a bamboo basket on their backs, and went to the field with a small hoe.
Before that, Jiang Ning also secretly took out the seeds that had been soaked in the space all night, handed Liu a small bag, and filled a small bag himself.
A moment later.
They went together into the field.
Because Jiang Ning remembered his seven acres of uncultivated land, he planned to go to Xiaozhuang Village to find someone to help first.
Liu Shi answered and went down to the ground by himself.
"Mother, be careful, don't fall."
"Don't worry."
The two told each other, and Jiang Ning rushed to the village.
I never thought that when I first arrived at the entrance of the village, I saw Li Zhuzi driving the scalper out, and his eyes lit up inexplicably, and he hurriedly walked a few steps forward.
"Uncle Pillar."
Li Zhuzi was also stunned when he heard the shout, and when he saw the person coming, he raised a smile: "Ah, it's Ning girl, how can you have time to come over at such a time?" ”
"Uncle Zhuzi, isn't this the field that I took back from Jiang Fuping's hands before I have not had time to reclaim it, and seeing that it is the time to sow seeds, I plan to come to the village to find someone to ask for a cow to help plow the land."
As she spoke, she glanced at the scalper beside Li Zhuzi, the meaning of which was not too obvious.
Li Zhuzi also smiled happily, and hurriedly replied: "Ning girl, you can be regarded as coming, I am also planning to go to plow the land today, no, I just borrowed the cattle of Old Man Gu's family." ”
"Uncle Zhuzi?"
"When I'm done plowing, I'll plow your land too, anyway, our two lands are connected together, and it won't take much effort."
As soon as he said this, Jiang Ning immediately remembered the two acres of land sandwiched in the middle, and couldn't help but light up, and asked anxiously: "Uncle Zhuzi, won't your family's land be the two acres next to my house, but the two acres of land not far from Kanzigou." ”
Li Zhuzi was also stunned, and looked at her a little strangely: "Ning girl, where is it not there, speaking of which, the two acres of land were specially allowed to me by your father, and to put it bluntly, it is still your land." ”
I see......
Jiang Ning shook his head with a smile: "Uncle Zhuzi, you are serious, since your father gave it to you, it is yours, but with your help today, it will save me a lot of effort." ”
As soon as Li Zhuzi heard this, he felt a lot of ironing in his heart, and after saying a few good words about Jiang Ning's father, the two went to the field.
However, not far from the entrance of the village, a pair of poisoned eyes kept staring in the direction they were leaving......
