Chapter 202: To the Town
He Zao's brows furrowed, Forsythia often played outside, Ma didn't care, waved his hand at He Zao, twisted his waist, and went to knock on the melon seeds under his window.
This melon seed is still grown from a few sunflowers planted in the yard in summer, and it is not fried, just dry it directly in the sun, the size is smaller than the one sold, but the particles are very full, original, and I feel very fragrant when I eat it.
It's just that these melon seeds, He Zao remembered that Mrs. He was going to eat them for the New Year, but now Ma's is eating them.
He Zao glanced at Ma's side, and the latter didn't know if it was because of his weak heart or what, so he muttered directly: "Look at it, this is what my Dayang bought for me, and I can't eat what my son bought!" ”
He Zao didn't say anything, turned his head and entered the West Chamber.
Chan sat in front of the door doing needlework, like a close-fitting coat sewn for Qibao.
When he saw He Zao coming in, he said, "Do you want to, I'll make it for you after I'm done for your seventh brother!" ”
He Zao was afraid that she would waste her eyes, so he waved his hand: "Just buy it, what do you do, your eyes are burned." ”
Chen Shi looked at her with disgust and patiently taught: "If you are a big girl, not to mention intimate clothes, even shoes and socks, and outer coats, you have to make them yourself, and we can't buy ready-to-wear shops no matter how cheap they are." Look at your eldest sister, she did it all by herself inside and out. ”
The question of a woman's chastity!
He Zao rolled his eyes, thought of himself, and said that if this ancient woman was seen to have small feet, it would be equivalent to losing her virginity, and I don't know if it is true or not!
If so, that's an exaggeration, isn't it?
Just those stinky feet, it's okay to be looked at!
He Zao completely forgot at this time that she once took off her shoes and socks to soak her feet in front of someone.
"You are also nine years old, and you will not be busy in the future, you should also pick up the needlework and learn it, so that you can make a dress for yourself in the future, so that your in-laws will not make people laugh at it in the future!" Chen thought of something, so he hurriedly said: "Your eldest sister has been holding needles and threads since she was eight years old. ”
He Zao has grown so big that he hasn't even touched a needle.
When I didn't separate the family before, the work at home was too heavy, and when my mother and mother didn't stop, I didn't have time to teach.
After the separation, I hurried for more than two months before I had the time to take a breath.
That's why Chen hurriedly took the time to make a shirt for Qibao, he used to pick up Sibao, and it was so broken that he couldn't make up for it.
In addition, the clothes that are worn close to the body, patches will wear the skin and make them uncomfortable to wear.
Chen can be said to have been suffering until the end, and she has always been short of money, but she can always clean herself up in a proper manner, neatly and neatly, even if it is a patch, the stitches are extremely fine and neat.
He Chun'er followed her to learn needlework, and her work was also very good.
He embroidered a pair of cross-stitch in his previous life, and he felt that he was going to die, and now let her do needlework, how to think about it, how to feel difficult.
But in ancient times, girls did not learn needlework, and there was almost no place for them.
She tilted her head and thought about it, and began to bargain with Chen: "Mother, if you don't win, you will teach me how to sew patches, make a whole piece of clothing, cut and sew, I, I will definitely not learn!" ”
Looking at her bitter gourd face, Chen smiled and said: "Look at you, you are worried, as long as you put half of your efforts in the workshop into needlework, you will definitely do better than your eldest sister!" ”
He Zao rubbed his nose in disbelief.
He Chun'er now even embroiders a peony flower.
As for herself, He Zao felt that she would not be able to learn for decades.
"At the beginning, I learned to sew patches, slowly laid the foundation, then cut the handkerchief, embroidered the simplest style, locked the edge, and then learned the difficulty, began to cut clothes, sewed arms and trouser leg lines, take your time, you will always learn."
Chen told He Zao the steps.
The latter blinked and his eyes did not squeak.
Chen Shi said again: "This is not in a hurry, wait for us to go back and teach you well." ”
Chen felt that he had mistreated his little girl, so he thought that he would step up his requirements for He Zao in the area of women's labor, and in the future, his in-law's family could be regarded as having something to do.
He Zao had been a little worried about forsythia in his heart, and he looked out two or three times while talking, and Chen asked her strangely.
There is nothing to hide, and He has already said the words of everyone by the river.
Chen's brows furrowed, with some disgust on his face: "I'm most annoyed by those gossips, this is at your grandmother's house, it's inconvenient, and when you go back to our house in the future, you all go to the river less, there are many people and mixed mouths, and you will add to your own blockage after listening, it's better not to listen!" ”
He Zao nodded.
Chen has always been kind to others, and does not say right and wrong.
Until noon, Ma made lunch, and called Forsythia's name a few times in a row, but there was no one, so he had no choice but to do it with He Xia'er, and cheekily asked He Zao to help light the fire.
The latter was genuinely worried at this time. Forsythia is young and has a big temperament, so it can't be something stupid, right?
She didn't care about anything, said something to Chen, and ran out to find forsythia.
Where can I find it?
Forsythia used to go to several little sisters' homes have asked one by one, and then went to the sycamore forest behind the village, the pear forest in front, the autumn rain has just arrived, the pears in the forest are ripe, and they fall down, at this time the boys in the forest are picking up autumn pears to eat.
He asked them if they had seen forsythia.
Liu Ying's second brother's name is Liu Hui, and he came over and asked, "Zao'er, what's wrong?" ”
Among these little boys, He Zao was more familiar with him, and hurriedly said: "Sister Forsythia and I went to the river to wash clothes, and then something happened and she left first, and she never came back, and it was almost lunch." ”
Liu Hui is older than Sibao, but the two are the same age, he was sent to the town brewing shop by Liu Yingniang early to be a little apprentice, learning how to make wine from others, and only came back once in ten days.
He had already greeted again: "Brother Liu Hui, are you resting today?" ”
Liu Hui said "um" and smiled: "I only came back last night, the forsythia you said, I saw her in the middle of the afternoon, she should have gone in the direction of the town!" ”
In town?
Even if He Zao was very anxious at this time, he couldn't help but be full of black lines when he heard the words, Forsythia wouldn't learn from her mother, so she went to Aunt He to cry, right?
"Are you sure? Did she go to town? ”
Her appearance was a little anxious, Liu Hui thought about it, then said hello to his friends, motioned He Zao to follow her out of the forest, and Wen Yan asked, "Did you two quarrel?" I remember when I saw her, she seemed to be wiping away tears, and when she saw me, it was as if she hadn't seen me, covered her face and left. ”
He had already been convinced that Forsythia had really gone to town.
She explained sullenly: "...... It is estimated that she went to my aunt's house, and she didn't send a letter to the house, which made people worry in vain. ”
She sighed, "I need to go and get her back." ”
Liu Hui was a little surprised: "Don't tell your family?" Just go on your own? ”
He Zao's eyes widened, and he said in a natural tone: "Of course, people like my grandmother and my eldest mother, when I go back, I will be the first to be scolded!" It's not my fault for this, why should I be scolded! Take the blame! ”
