Chapter 3 Gossip in the Village
Tang Juan looked at Qin Si inexplicably.
It's obvious that he feels sorry for people, how did he become her.
"Wanwan is reluctant to let me be frozen, so I feel distressed." Qin Si said with a smile.
Tang Xuan's face turned red, he stopped talking, pushed the medicine bowl over, and put a small piece of sugar.
Qin Si couldn't help frowning just by smelling the smell of the medicine, drank it in one gulp, hurriedly stuffed the sugar cube into his mouth, and smacked a few mouthfuls of sugar water to swallow it.
poured another bowl of white water and flushed it, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, and his face was sad, "How long do you have to drink this medicine?" ”
"The doctor said that you are cold and weak, and if you want to come, you have to drink for half a month." Tang Juan cleaned up the medicine bowl and said in a low voice.
Qin Si's face was even more bitter, and he couldn't help but be coquettish, "I feel much better, it costs money to drink medicine, and I won't drink it when the wind and cold are better, okay?" ”
"Then the doctor has the final say." Tang Juan moved the kang table away and let Qin Si lie down to rest.
Qin Si still wanted to say a few more words to Tang Juan, but his body was indeed too weak, and he fell asleep after lying down for a while.
Tang Juan went outside to clean up the kitchen, looked at the water tank, and went out to carry the bucket to carry water.
The whole village of Xiaobeiwang is like a crescent moon, and in the middle of the crescent moon is a wide river that passes, and they are downstream, and the upstream is Dabeiwang Village.
But you can't eat the river water, but you can't wash your clothes and water the ground.
There is a well at the entrance of the village, and the draft can be borne there.
Today is the first day of the wedding, as soon as Tang Juan goes out, she can feel that the eyes of the people in the surrounding villages fall on her, purse her lips, and when she doesn't see it, she lowers her head and goes to the river.
She carried water back to wash her clothes, and the winter quilt that she had removed and replaced two days ago also had to be washed, and she dried the cotton before it was cold before she could cover her father-in-law.
Originally, she also went to the river to wash her clothes, but after she couldn't get married, the people in the village always talked about her when they came back, so they didn't go.
I'd rather be more tired and have quiet ears.
"Yo, the girl is here to carry the water, don't you have much rest on the first day of marriage? I watched your house light a cigarette in the morning. ”
Tang Wan teased her eyes and saw that it was the aunt of the Song family near her house, surnamed Zhao, who was a broken mouth on weekdays.
"My dad gets up early to collect firewood, and the family is busy." Tang Juan didn't want to say more, so he replied politely.
Zhao's house is by the river, and usually the aunts and aunts come to wash their clothes, chatting in groups, and she can listen to anything.
"Why don't you see your father-in-law?" A few aunts by the river also asked.
Tang Juan lowered his head and scooped water, "He drank the medicine and rested at home." ”
"How do you say this, a big man can't carry it on his shoulders, he can't even carry water, what are you doing when you recruit him."
"But no, it's still a sick and crooked medicine jar, and it costs a lot of money just to drink the medicine, right? I said earlier that I couldn't recruit a son-in-law, but your father didn't listen, how much money did the family have to spend like this. ”
"This is recruiting a son-in-law, this is marrying a big Buddha and going back."
Tang Wan pursed his lips and didn't speak, quickly filled the bucket, and then picked up, "Aunts are busy, I'll go back first." ”
She has heard enough of these words over the years, and she thought that she didn't care for a long time, but now she is still angry.
They were angry and said that Xianggong was sick and crooked medicine jars, which was not a sincere curse that he would not get better.
Tang Juan walked quickly, and a group of women behind him sighed a few times and discussed, "This is just the first day of marriage, and I don't know what will happen in the future." ”
"It's not, if you raise an ancestor at home, it's better to marry a son-in-law, and you can still have your in-laws to help you when you marry."
"What's wrong with that, if you marry someone else, forget it, the Qin family's mess of accounts, the brother and sister-in-law above Qin Si can't wait to swallow Qin Si alive and help him."
The woman immediately turned the topic to the Qin family, and said it with spittle.
When Tang Juan returned home, Boss Tang had already repaired the chicken pen, looked at the pigsty and the dry toilet, cleaned it up, washed his hands and checked the guys working in the field.
After a few days, it is time to harvest the beans, and after harvesting the beans, we will plant wheat and rice, and we will not be idle at the end of September and October, rushing to harvest and rush to plant.
The Tang family has a simple population, there used to be a father and daughter, and now, there are only father and daughter who can work.
Tang Juan washed his clothes and quilts, put them at the gate of the courtyard to dry, and looked at the time to prepare for lunch.
It's easy to get lunch, there are a lot of leftover dishes from a marriage yesterday, and if you don't eat it today, you won't be able to eat it for another day, Tang Juan didn't spare the oil, heated it in the pot, and made hand-rolled noodles with the leftover noodles in the morning, and cooked a single pot of chicken soup for Qin Si until it was soft, "Dad eats, I'll call him." ”
On the table is half a chicken left over from yesterday, stewed fish with tender tofu, and stir-fried cabbage, this is not leftovers, otherwise Tang Juan loves to be clean and will not eat the leftover meals of others on the table, so he has made more leftovers.
During the meal, Tang Juan talked to Boss Tang about going back to the door, and Boss Tang was also stunned, "He went back to the door?" This...... Then go back, get some cloth and sugar, and twenty eggs. ”
Boss Tang thought that Qin Si wanted to take this opportunity to make up for his family, after all, the Qin family said to the outside world that the little uncle had been studying for many years, which was hollowed out inside and out.
So he was not stingy when he gave the bride price, eight taels of silver plus those things, and it was also real in Beiwang Village.
Tang Wan's chopsticks flicked the fish in the bowl and lowered his voice, "He, he said to let me call my mother-in-law and not my mother-in-law." ”
“…… You are a recruit, you should be called so, he can think of it, or it is okay, save others from speaking. Donald paused and lowered his head to pick up the rice.
This son-in-law looks like a son-in-law.
One day later, Tang Juan packed up the return gift and put it in the basket to find clothes for Qin Si.
When Qin Si came, he took a small bag, two short clothes in it, a white-washed robe, and then a long shirt that he wore when he got married, and nothing else.
Tang Wan frowned slightly, how can this work, let alone winter, if it's cold, you have to freeze if it's cold.
Thinking about it here, Qin Si took the clothes she wore when she got married, and combed her hair again, "Wanwan? ”
Tang Juan came back to his senses, "Huh? ”
"Let's go." Qin Si took her hand.
In the past two days, Qin Si's face has looked much better, unlike when he first got married, his face was sallow and haggard.
It took two quarters of an hour to walk from Xiaobeiwang to Dabeiwang, but Tang Juan was still not at ease, so he borrowed the ox cart in the village to pull grain and let Qin Si sit there.
Qin Si responded with a smile, and pulled Tang Juan to let her sit too, and the villagers muttered again.
"What a precious person, just walk these steps and need an ox cart, why don't you carry it."
"What are you tossing about when Qin Zuo's son-in-law's body is like this, spend eight taels of silver for nothing, don't look back, you can't even give birth to a child."
Qin Si listened, leaned into Tang Juan's ear and assured her, "Don't worry, Wanwan, I can give birth to a child." ”
The heat of the young man's speech gently brushed the root of the woman's ear, blowing red, Tang Wan was so ashamed that he turned his head.
Qin Si smiled lightly and said no more.
Dabeiwang, the second sister-in-law of the Qin family was scolding the old lady at the door, "...... When I become a son-in-law, I can't go back to the door, what am I wrong? I'm a bad guy in the co-authoring family. ”
