Chapter 610: Lack of Heart

Previously, I begged the Hou Ye and the Li family, and there were thirty pro-soldiers at the foot of the two villages, but most of them did not get married.

When I went back this time, there were only six families who successfully brought their wives and children's families......

But these six families, the elderly and children together, there are more than 20 people, which suddenly makes the second village more lively.

The row house has been built a long time ago, and today it is just time to bring back all the woodwork.

Tables, chairs and benches were placed, and the old men in the village supported a few baskets and baskets for each family, and put them in the yard, so that they would have a better life.

The families of the six pro-soldiers moved in directly, and sat in the new house, all feeling that the new house was really unexpectedly good!

The rest of the soldiers also lived in the row house next door, with ten people in a household, all of whom were spacious and bright.

It just so happened that Tao Hongying and others didn't find a free place in the village, and calculated that there were a few more row houses that could not be used for the time being, so they set up a simple workshop for baking moon cakes.

The entire sky over the second village is shrouded in sweet fragrance, the women in the village go in and out, and the naughty boys also come together to play here, which makes the second village more popular!

Xiaocui and Wei Erniu moved in early, so they inevitably became the "seniors" in the second village.

Xiaocui helped the women of each family settle down, and also introduced to them the general situation in and out of the village.

When they heard that the village was baking mooncakes, a full 2,000 yuan, all the new women, old and young, were amazed, and had a more intuitive feeling of the richness of the broken gold beach.

Early the next morning, Xiaocui took the women of each family to the Li family's compound to pay their respects.

The women of each family were worried about what gifts to give to the Li family, so Xiaocui asked them to bring some dried mushrooms or special dried fruits.

They were a little apprehensive, but they felt that this ceremony was too simple......

It so happened that Mrs. Li, Tao Hongying and Mrs. Wen were looking for materials to do some needlework for the unborn children.

By the way, I also dry the fur at home, and prepare to modify it, and it will come in handy soon when it is cold.

When the women entered, Mrs. Li was taking a white fox skin and thinking about making a cloak for her granddaughter.

Mrs. Li only wore a cotton dress, simply tied her hair in a bun, and inserted a silver hairpin, which was very simple, only the jade bracelet on her wrist, which looked like a valuable look.

Everyone was surprised, after all, she was a first-class lady, and she was no different from an ordinary rich lady.

Looking at Tao Hongying, the general's wife, she also has a simple dress and doesn't wear too much jewelry.

It was Mrs. Wen, the accompanying guest next to her, who was dressed more exquisitely, but she also had a gentle and gentle smile, and she couldn't see any arrogant look.

You must know that when the women were in their hometown, that is, the female babies who were concubines for rich families in the village came back, and they all looked at people with their nostrils.

This Li family...... It seems to be really different!

Mrs. Li beckoned the women to sit and gossip together, and asked a few people in the family, what is missing after settling down?!

In the end, he entrusted them all to Xiaocui to take care of, so that Xiaocui could just talk about something if she had something.

The men of all families follow the Hou Ye on errands, and the stability of the family is to stabilize the rear, and the men cannot be held back.

Naturally, the woman agreed.

Before leaving, Mrs. Li called Mama He to take out the meeting gift that had been prepared a long time ago, a piece of fine cotton material for the family, enough for an adult to make underwear, or two sets of clothes for children.

Then, the family also had a box of dim sum, which Jiayin had brought back from the shop in the city.

Jiayin was changing her teeth, and Mrs. Li was afraid that her granddaughter would eat sweet and rotten teeth at this time, so she simply sent them out, out of sight and out of mind.

The women thanked her, and then followed Xiaocui out of the new village, and did not dare to talk until she left the entrance of the village.

"My second dog father said that Mrs. Li is very kind, I can't believe it, I didn't expect it to be true.

"It's also an elderly person, Mrs. Li is so kind to talk and laugh, and then think about my mother-in-law, it's just a scolding that sees the sky, and I can't wait for every sentence to be the same!"

A daughter-in-law in her twenties, talking quickly, everyone who listened laughed.

Another woman in her forties said angrily, "Can that be the same? Your mother-in-law is partial to your brother-in-law's family, and treats your family as a thorn in her side, so she naturally scolds you every day!

"Mrs. Li is blessed, there is no unfilial son and daughter-in-law, as long as a bowl of water is flat on weekdays, the family will definitely be prosperous and harmonious!"

"Don't talk about this, we will be out of the sea of suffering in the future, the men are running errands under the Hou Ye, let's be diligent, and with the support of the Li family, life will soon be better." A woman with an old face said.

She was the most tortured by her in-laws before, and when she was talking at this time, her eyes were red.

Everyone sympathized with each other, patted her on the shoulder, and comforted her a few words.

But there is also a youngest daughter-in-law, who asked in a low voice: "Didn't you say that the Li family is the richest, there are tens of thousands of taels of melons sold only a year, how to give us a meeting gift, just a piece of cloth, a box of snacks......"

Is this disgusted that the Li family has given less things?

Everyone frowned, and subconsciously moved two steps away from this little daughter-in-law.

Xiaocui thought about it for a while, and said, "Sister-in-law Sanhu, when you moved over, what did your mother-in-law give, and what did your mother-in-law give?" ”

The little daughter-in-law who was called Sanhu's sister-in-law was stunned for a moment, and replied hesitantly: "The married girl, the water that is spilled, my mother-in-law will naturally not give anything, my mother-in-law's family ...... Gave two pairs of chopsticks ......"

Xiao Cui'er smiled and said unceremoniously: "The Li family is not your mother's family, nor is it your mother-in-law's family, give you fabrics and snacks, is there still less?" ”

The little daughter-in-law's face was red, and she quickly waved her hand to explain, "No, I'm not, I'm just ......"

It's a pity that everyone saw that she was a little high-minded and calculating, and refused to talk more, so they all smiled and vaguely responded, and then quickly walked into their respective courtyards.

The little daughter-in-law was a little aggrieved, and then looked at Xiaocui, Xiaocui pointed to the yard where the mooncakes were baked temporarily, "I'll go get busy, and I'll talk about it later." ”

Hui Niang was in the courtyard, and she was busy baking moon cakes with seven or eight women.

In fact, it is not difficult to bake moon cakes, the noodles and fillings are fully prepared, wrapped, pressed into the mold, and you can put them on the baking sheet.

But taking care of the fire is a delicate job, and it is not something that ordinary people can do!

Hui Niang didn't worry about others, for fear that a lot of ingredients would be wasted if she baked paste, so she stayed here almost from morning to night.

When the twins were mischievous, she tied them to the door frame with a cloth strap.

Xiaocui entered the courtyard and quickly replaced Hui Niang.

Hui Niang wiped a handful of sweat beads, and then rescued a pair of children and took them to play for a while.

Hui Niang was careful, and saw that Xiaocui was a little distracted, so she asked, "What's the matter, do you have something to worry about when you go out?" You can watch the heat carefully, don't ruin this stove mooncake!"

Xiao Cui hurriedly came back to her senses, whispered about Fang Cai, and then sighed: "Sister-in-law, why do you say this person is different?"

"When I came to the village with Erniu, we had a place to stay, we could eat and dress warmly, and we didn't have to be beaten and scolded, and I really dreamed of laughing. But they ...... It's really ...... to get the old lady's things, and it's too little."

She wanted to scold a few words, but she was honest and couldn't scold!
