Chapter 114: Betraying his mother-in-law openly and honestly
For Wang Manyin, it doesn't matter how many fish he catches, the most important thing is to be happy with the orchid.
Anyway, there are fish in the space, so it's not too late to get a few more to eat tomorrow.
However, after a heavy rain, the sediment content in the Dongla River increased greatly, and many fish floated on the surface of the water to breathe.
The two of them were busy along the river bank for a long time, and the harvest was okay, catching four loaches and two crucian carp.
For them, it's enough for a noon tooth sacrifice.
Seeing that the time was almost noon, the two planned to go back early to cook.
The road was slippery in rainy days, and it was not easy to climb the cliff side of the nearby river, so Wang Manyin could only return the same way with the orchid.
As soon as he walked to the edge of the puddle, he saw a group of people surrounding Wang Mancang, muttering something quietly.
"Brother Mancang, what are you talking about? It's so mysterious." Wang Manyin asked curiously.
"It's full of silver, it scares me." Hearing the human voice, Wang Mancang turned his head to look at it weakly.
Immediately, he lowered his voice and said, "There was a lot of trouble in the cave where the educated youths lived last night!"
"What? Brother Mancang, you don't dare to talk nonsense." Wang Manyin was startled, and hurriedly stopped him, "Let outsiders hear it, and make a mistake."
In the era of red fire, is it appropriate for a group of people to openly discuss treacherous issues?
"Let's talk about it in passing, it was the educated youth who mentioned it first. The key thing sounds really evil......" Wang Xiugang said next to him.
"What's going on?" Wang Manyin looked at Liu Xiangyang and the others in confusion, and felt very ridiculous in his heart.
They are the most turbulent place, vowing to sweep away all the old things, is it possible to believe that there is something treacherous?
In fact, people in this era are a little divided in their thinking, on the one hand, they are high, and on the other hand, they are skeptical of certain things.
"It's not the cave we live in, it's the girl next door. They slept until midnight last night......" Shang Zhimin pushed his glasses with his fingers and spoke slowly.
This person has a good personality, talking about things is like commenting on a story, the plot is full of twists and turns, and there are many suspense.
But it is very simple to sum up: it rained last night, and several female intellectuals slept until midnight, when they suddenly heard someone knocking on the wall of the cave.
At first, they thought it was a companion who was suffering from hysteria, so they lit an oil lamp. When they all woke up, they noticed that the sound was not from their companions, but from inside the kiln wall, followed by a burst of coughing.
Several female intellectuals screamed in fright, waking up the male intellectuals next door.
A group of people were called out in the middle of the night and searched the cave, but they couldn't find anything unusual. It wasn't until dawn that the abnormal sound suddenly stopped.
", what a fuss, you must be scaring yourself." Although what the other party said was amazing, Wang Manyin still felt that it was making it up.
What "abnormal stop after the rooster crows", "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" has seen too much.
"Really, I don't lie to you, someone really knocked something in the loess last night, and it was a while. I also heard a cough,......" Liu Xiangyang also emphasized.
"It should be a mouse," Wang Manyin speculated after a little thought, "There are rat holes in the cave where you live, and in the dead of night, the sound of rats digging holes is strange."
In many cases, people have fear in their hearts first, and then they magically transform some accustomed sounds. ….
After the truth is revealed, it is discovered that there is a false alarm.
When Wang Manyin went to college in later generations, he didn't go home during the winter vacation and lived alone in the dormitory. One night, shortly after he fell asleep, he suddenly heard a stabbing sound outside the dormitory door, as if someone was walking in the hallway wearing slippers.
Wang Manyin was also furious at that time, and then he couldn't sleep because of the toss, so he simply put on his clothes and went out with a mop in his hand to check.
As a result, I couldn't laugh or cry: I don't know who had a plastic band on the window of the staircase, and it was blown by the wind......
"It's definitely not rats, we've plugged up all the rat holes." Shang Zhimin shook his head again and again, and emphasized again, "When it rained in the middle of the night, the female intellectuals saw an old man walking around through the window......
"I'll go, the more you talk, the more mysterious it becomes," Wang Manyin was completely speechless.
"Man Yin, have you forgotten, they lived in those caves, which used to belong to Wang Rongtou's family. He hanged himself there, he was in his fifties when he died, and he was an old man." Wang Mancang muttered quietly.
"What, someone hanged themselves in the cave?" When several educated youths heard this, their faces changed again, and they felt that things were even more weird.
Wang Manyin said angrily, "Brother Mancang, can you make it clear? Wang Haotou did not hang himself in the cave, but on a tree outside, which had already been cut down."
Wang Rongtou is Wang Mingqiang's father, and the ingredients are not good. Now that Wang Mingqiang's family is having a hard time, if someone blindly contacts this matter, it may have a bad impact on them.
"I'll just say it casually," Wang Mancang sneered, shutting up.
He also realized that if he said this, it could cause trouble.
"Alright, don't talk about that anymore. You go back and look carefully, it must be a rat hole or something......" Wang Manyin went home and waited to cook, and didn't have the time to listen to their nonsense.
After a word of advice, he left with his mother-in-law.
As a result, not long after they walked on the dirt road, the orchid suddenly stumbled, and then grinned miserably.
"What's the matter," Wang Manyin hurriedly ran over.
"It hurts so much that the plate of my foot was pricked by Ma Ruzi's thorn," Orchid said, holding up her left foot for her husband to take a closer look.
It is one of the common wild shrubs on the Loess Plateau, and it is everywhere in the fields and on the slopes and cliffs.
The stems and leaves of this thing are covered with small thorns, and the roots are particularly developed, and if they don't come out in time, they will crawl out in a large area in a few years.
However, it is good to use it as a fence, and Wang Manyin has planted a lot of animals in the space.
Of course, if you are stabbed by Ma Ruzi, the taste is definitely not pleasant.
The orchid's feet were covered with yellow mud, and blood could be faintly seen seeping inside. Wang Manyin searched carefully for a moment, but he didn't see if there were any broken thorns.
He simply squatted down and said, "I'll carry you, why don't you go home and find it again!"
"Well, I'd better walk back by myself and let people see how bad it is." Orchid opened her mouth a little shyly. Usually it doesn't matter how intimate the two are at home, you still have to pay attention to your image outside.
"What's this? Hurry up, don't bother."
Wang Manyin didn't feel anything at all, he was openly betraying his mother-in-law, and he was not stealing. ….
Orchid hesitated, but leaned back obediently.
Carrying his aunt to the house, Wang Manyin even came to be interested, and sang at the top of his voice: "It's really good that the orchid flowers are good, my brother has already taken a fancy to you." Bowl bowl flowers bloom on the spot, you turn your white face over...... I'm not ashamed of you, I'm not shy, I'll walk with the orchid flowers on my back......
Orchid's face was blushing, but her heart was full of sweetness, and she couldn't help but twist the man's arm twice.
"Full silver, don't howl, be careful to attract the wolf......
When she arrived at the door of her house, Orchid saw Shao'an standing on the edge of the field and waiting, still carrying a bundle cloth bag in her hand.
"Shao'an, why are you here?"
Immediately, she shyly said to the man, "Man Yin, let me go quickly."
"It's okay, Shao'an is not an outsider, just now the orchid's foot made Ma Ru's thorn pierced."
Wang Manyin explained for her mother-in-law, hurriedly took out the key to open the door, and invited Shao'an to sit down in the cave.
Seeing that the relationship between the two is very good, Sun Shaoan is of course very satisfied. Sometimes he admires his sister's vision, being able to pick out gold from the sand, and seeing his brother-in-law's goodness at a glance.
Now when the people of Shuangshui Village talk about the eldest son-in-law of the Sun family, almost all of them give a thumbs up and praise, saying that the orchid has fallen into the nest of blessings.
Even because of my brother-in-law, their family is changing a lot. So far this spring, several people have not gone hungry again.
"I was resting today, and I happened to have a few meat tickets in my hand, so I cut some meat, kept some for my family, and sent the rest to you." Shao'an said, taking out half a catty of pork from the cloth bag.
This is the will of the people, the king
Naturally, Manyin will not refuse.
With this piece of pork, it is just the middle of the day to improve life.
"Why didn't you bring Shaoping and Lanxiang here? I haven't seen them for a few days, so we happened to have a meal together at noon. Otherwise, let's wrap up flat food. Later, I'll go and cut a handful of leeks and green onions in my own field, and then call Shaoping and them over to eat."
Flat food belongs to the name of the Loess Plateau, which is what people in the north often call dumplings, and it can be regarded as high-standard hospitality food.
Xintianyou once sang: "I ate a bowl of flat food and didn't drink a mouthful of soup, and I didn't make up my mind to fall for someone else."
"No, brother-in-law, I still have to go back, and the family has started cooking......" Shao'an hurriedly got up and excused.
"What's the deal, I'll help wrap the flat food later,"
Wang Manyin naturally wouldn't let the other party leave, and dragged them together to cut leeks and green onions on their own ground.
Since there is pork, a few small fish don't need to be eaten for the time being, and let Shaoping and them take them back to play in the afternoon.
If you want to eat it yourself, you can catch it again at any time.
By the time they returned, the orchid had already finished its noodles.
Then, Wang Manyin went to pick up Shaoping and Lanxiang again.
Half a catty of meat is a bit less, and the orchid deliberately scrambled a few eggs and chopped and stuffed.
Now the roads in the village are muddy, and they are all muddy eggs when they step on them, and no mother-in-law and aunt have come to visit the door, but let them eat a good meal comfortably.
Not to mention, pork and egg flat food is more delicious than black nest.
They wrapped a sorghum and slapped flat food, and finally ate a clean light, each of them was two large bowls high, even the smallest orchid was no exception.
After eating, Shao'an called Wang Manyin outside to talk, talking about the new fungus fertilizer.
"Brother-in-law, the products of the fertilizer factory have been made, and the next step is for the two of us to be responsible for promoting them to the villages. I'm getting more and more depressed now, is it really okay?"
When it came to pass, he became uneasy again.
"Shao'an, whether it succeeds or not, let's do our best. There are so many technicians, and it's not just the two of you who are unqualified." Wang Manyin smiled and comforted, "When I go back, I will go to Director Guo's place again when I have time, and contact more people."
"It just so happens that our village is going to plant rice in a while, and you can come to the jar village to promote it at that time."
In later generations, Wang Manyin was accustomed to seeing similar things, and his heart was unwavering.
