Chapter 76: Water Farm Eats People

As soon as Gu Jianqing and Master Xun left, the small courtyard of the Rong family became much quieter.

The main reason is that she is not excited to sleep, and without her laughter, the Rong family is not used to it.

Mrs. Rong was even more worried.

The little granddaughter in the family seems to prefer to play with big brothers like Gu Xing and Gu Jianqing because of Zaohui, but the older children and the milk doll are two people on the road after all, and they will have to be separated soon.

That's not a good thing for my granddaughter!

She's going to have to make some real friends!

Thinking of a few well-behaved and clever little girls in the Lu family, Mrs. Rong immediately hugged her to sleep, and went to the back wine room to talk to a few daughters-in-law.

"I'll take Sleep to Lu's house and come back at noon."

The family was busy brewing the beer that would be handed over to Baicuilou next month, and they couldn't wait to give birth to four hands and eight eyes, but when they heard that Mrs. Rong was going to go out with Sleep, she still gave a sigh of advice.

"Mother, there are many little girls in the Lu family, you can bring more fruits and sugar! There is also the little cake I baked yesterday, they all said it was delicious, and you can take a few too. ”

Mrs. Rong scolded the second daughter-in-law with a smile: "Just you slip your head and change your way to praise your own little cake!" ”

The second daughter-in-law was sweating with the dried malt, but the smile on her red face was obvious.

Mrs. Rong took the opportunity to take a look at the other daughters-in-law and sons, who were also sweating profusely.

Brewing wine is not an easy job, for the sake of the family's business, the children have been significantly busy and lost weight for most of the month.

Mrs. Rong thought about it, went to the cellar to pick up some fruits, snacks and sugar, and took a large bag of fine white noodles and half a fan of pork from Steward Li, and asked Sleepy to drive a tiger cart to help her pull to Lu's house, wanting to ask the Lu family to help make meat buns.

But when I arrived at the door of Lu's house, I found that the courtyard of Lu's house was empty, and there was no drying of clothes and mushrooms in the small yard, as if it had not been swept for more than half a month, and even the half acre of vegetable land on the side was wilted.

Mrs. Rong was stunned for a moment, and said to herself: "The Lu family has moved away?" I didn't hear what Sister-in-law Chen said. ”

It was true that he hadn't seen the Lu family go to the door for more than half a month, so he shouted loudly outside: "Oh na! ”

There was still no one inside.

Someone came out from next door not far away, and when he saw that it was Mrs. Rong's grandfather and grandson, he asked, "Auntie, are you looking for the aunt of the Lu family?" She went back to her parents' house some time ago. ”

Mrs. Rong was puzzled: "Go back to your parents' house?" Did the whole family go back? Why is there no one left in the family? ”

The neighbor was also surprised, and asked rhetorically: "Didn't the Chen family's aunt tell you?" ”

Mrs. Rong had a premonition that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "Is something wrong with the Lu family?" ”

Seeing that Mrs. Rong really didn't know, the neighbor walked over, looked at the courtyard of the Lu family and sighed: "Aunt Lu's man and two sons were gone more than ten days ago. Matsuyama and their brothers front and back. ”

Mrs. Rong and Sleep are shocked!

"What's going on? How do people say that if there is no, it is gone? ”

Why didn't the Lu family and the Chen family tell her anything!

"Naturally, it was released, the man and his two sons were left in the river, and none of them were saved, this year's water field, I heard that many people died, and there were six in our village alone!"

When Mrs. Rong heard this, she was so ashamed that she couldn't do it, because she was still good friends with Sister Lu, she didn't even know about such a big thing, and she hurriedly asked: "Then Sister Lu is still back?" ”

Neighbors, that's not clear.

Mrs. Rong had no choice but to go to Chen's house again.

Sister-in-law Chen saw that Mrs. Rong took the initiative to ask, so she sighed and said: "I originally wanted to tell my sister, but every time I go to your house, I can meet people in the village looking for trouble, I see that you are troubled inside and out, so I am embarrassed to speak, and the sister of the Lu family has always been an introvert, and I don't like to talk about my own family affairs, so I don't talk much." ”

Mrs. Rong understood that something had happened, and it was only right to think about what to do in the future, so she asked: "She has been going to her mother's house for so long, does she plan to come back?" ”

"Naturally, she wants to come back, if she doesn't come back, her mother's house can't accommodate her, her mother is also seventy, and now she is supported by her brother, and there is a sister-in-law and nephew at home, and she has long been out of love, she went back this time, that is, she wanted to try to see if she could borrow silver."

"Why do you need to borrow money? The last time I bought ginseng land, I remember that the Lu family bought a total of three acres, isn't her family living a good life? ”

Sister-in-law Chen didn't know much, only said: "The previous one must be okay, but on the day of the accident, the sister of the Lu family came to me at night to borrow silver, saying that she didn't want her man and son to die and not see the body, and she wanted to go to the river to fish people back and bury them, so I borrowed ten taels of silver from her, and then someone was buried, and she came to me to borrow silver again, I really didn't have it in my hand, so I gave her five taels, and she had no choice but to go back to her parents' house to borrow it." ”

Mrs. Rong thought that she would not be able to borrow money when she went back to her parents' house, otherwise she would not have gone back for so long, "Sister-in-law, do you know where her mother's house is?" ”

Sister-in-law Chen didn't beat around the bush, and asked directly: "Sister, do you want to lend money to the Lu family?" ”

Mrs. Rong nodded and said, "Sister Lu is no one else, I remember her goodness, her family is in an emergency now, I don't help me to get over it." ”

Sister-in-law Chen knew that the Rong family was a good person, and hurriedly said: "The brother of the sister of the Lu family settled in Shangxi Village, which is only ten miles away from us, and it just so happens that my family is fine, why don't I go directly to her and come back?" ”

Mrs. Rong thought it was okay, and after making an appointment with Sister-in-law Chen to bring someone back and discuss it, she went home with Sleep.

Qin Yunzhi finished the pharmacy business, and saw that her mother-in-law came back so soon, and just about to ask, she said everything when she slept!

Seeing that her mother-in-law felt uncomfortable, she thought for a moment and said: "Mother, why don't you invite Aunt Lu and her daughter to come to our house to do things, now everyone in the family is too busy, and the work on the stove is too tiring for you alone, and the sister-in-law has to take a hand from time to time, these jobs can be done by the Lu family, how to work and earn wages is also on your own, it is better than borrowing money to live." ”

Mrs. Rong thought about it, but she asked a little worriedly: "Yun Niang, didn't you say that our family's method of brewing wine is secret, can you really let the Lu family work?" ”

Qin Yunzhi was really not worried at all, and said: "Mother, even if the connoisseur stands aside and watches the sister-in-law brew the wine, he may not be able to learn it, the brewing of liquor beer is not so simple, and asking the aunt of the Lu family to work is only doing the simplest thing, you don't have to worry too much, as for the salary, you have the final say." ”

Mrs. Rong understood that this was an opportunity for her daughter-in-law to give her a favor, so she naturally wanted to accept it.

When the sun set in the afternoon, Sister-in-law Chen came back with the Lu family.

I haven't seen her for half a month, and the Lu family looks a lot haggard, especially the aunt of the Lu family, who has lost a lot of weight.

Aunt Lu stood in the courtyard of the Rong family with her two daughters-in-law, two daughters and four granddaughters, looking very cramped.

Mrs. Rong looked distressed, slapped Aunt Lu's arm, and scolded: "I didn't eat your vegetables and cakes, why do you treat me as an outsider!" There was such a big thing, and I didn't even do a sound! You deserve the sins of these days! ”

As soon as she finished scolding, Aunt Lu, who was usually quiet and quiet, seemed to be able to endure anything, and her tears suddenly couldn't help but gush out, and her back was supported for more than ten days, and this moment finally collapsed!

Mrs. Rong watched her cry and was not comforted.

waited until she had cried enough and finished crying, and then gritted her teeth and said, "You come to my room, and our sisters will talk about themselves." ”

Qin Yunzhi hugged and fell asleep, gently pushed Aunt Lu, and then beckoned the rest of the Lu family, saying: "Don't be sad, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the days can always pass, let's eat first, let's be hungry." ”
