Xu Lao Er heard the movement and hurried to help unload the car.

"Big brother, why are you here?"

"If it weren't for the autumn vegetables and the wind and rain to repair the house, I would have come a long time ago. My mother kept urging me, and I was anxious. But this and that are always delayed. Brother-in-law, have you been tired from working lately? It's okay, I'll do it with you in the future. ”

Yu Qinniang's eldest brother is called Dali, and he moved things into the courtyard with the same kung fu as he spoke.

Two new kang mats woven with reeds, woven with flower patterns.

Since hearing that the Xu family was buying wasteland to build a new house, the old lady of the Yu family began to weave with a pair of skillful hands.

It took more than 20 days to compile these two large kang mats, which were put down every day without leaving their hands, and they were just placed in the new house for use.

Then he vigorously moved in a basket of more than 200 live loaches, and took his younger brother to catch them overnight without sleeping for two nights. The main difficulty is to compete with the villagers.

Dali smiled and said: "Brother-in-law, our village is not close to the river, and there are no big fish to eat, but if this thing can get rid of the earthy smell, it will taste good." Don't dislike it, let my sister make it for you. It's just that I didn't catch frogs this year, otherwise I can bring you some frogs, and I'll try again in winter, and I'll send them to you when I catch them. ”

The reason why Dali regrets it is not that the Xu family did not eat forest frogs.

Instead, he remembered that his sister loved to eat stewed potatoes with forest frogs when she was at her parents' house. It was a rare smell of meat at home.

In previous years, after the capture of forest frogs, those who took the city for salt and oil and vinegar were removed, and there would always be more than a dozen stewed twice a year to make up for the fat lost in the autumn harvest.

How could Xu Lao Er dislike loaches? That's not much better than boiling cabbage.

He was about to eat a full face of dishes, and he was finally about to change, and he was looking forward to it:

"The loaches are stewed in sauce, and then put some chili peppers to make them fragrant. In previous years, we also went to the river to catch, this year to snatch the river back has not been free, just tonight stewed, let's have a good meal and sweat. "I hope Qin Niang can be willing to put the sauce.

Next, he vigorously unloaded two baskets of red fruits from the car.

The taste of the red fruit in the mountains and the wild hawthorn is similar, and they also look similar.

Xu Lao Er frowned in disagreement and said: "Why didn't you stay at home to sell money, what are you doing with so much of this thing." ”

In previous years, at this time, Xu Lao Er knew that his mother-in-law would rely on harvesting red fruits in the mountains to exchange for some rag needlework, and then use rag needlework to make a lot of insole uppers, and sell them to shops in the town for money to subsidize the family.

After all, there are two boys in the family who have not yet started a family, and they have separated from each other, and they have not received anything. Breaking a house is worth a lot of money, and you need money everywhere from scratch.

Yu Daliben didn't want to bring so much mountain red, he thought about who would eat it if he didn't want to eat it.

But his mother said that the Xu family's situation is much better than her own family, and it is delicious to boil it if there is sugar, and the proprietress of the house who exchanged rags with her will be wrapped in frosting and eaten, and every time she boils a big pot, she can eat it for a long time in the cold storage warehouse.

He also said that your brother-in-law's family has nieces, and you are also an elder, so it is rare to go to bring something to the child. You can't let people call you uncle with two empty paws, and if you can't take out anything, the child will be disappointed, and you can only bring two baskets of wild fruits for nothing.

And the remaining half of the car moved Xu Lao Er the most.

Just looking at half a car of white stones, his brother-in-law was pushed by brute force like this.

This white mountain stone is smashed and a local kind of mud and thin, you can brush out large white walls.

After brushing, the house can be clean and decent, and it belongs to the "specialty" on the mountain of my mother-in-law's house.

However, due to the fact that this white mountain stone is located in a very high and dangerous cliff position, many mountain people usually pick it up for some money. I heard that it is sold to people in the city to paint the wall, and he doesn't know what the musk is, and the wall will emit a lingering fragrance.

Xu Lao Er knew that his brother-in-law was lying, and it was just an excuse to harvest autumn vegetables and repair the house in time, and he guessed that this was specifically for his family to go up the mountain for a few days and pick out the white rocks. Thinking that I finally came to the door, I had to bring something valuable and decent.

Xu Lao Er looked at the hand that was burned vigorously, and half of the thumbnail of his right hand fell off, and he was even more sure of his guess.

Xu Lao Er thought to himself: Brother-in-law, don't say anything, my brother-in-law will remember today in the future.

But what Xu Lao Er didn't know was that the Yu family left Yu Qinniang's dowry silver flowers, which was the pain in the heart of the Yu family's mother, and the old lady often said that your sister was not pregnant and gave birth to a baby, and she would be looked down upon by her mother-in-law.

The two brothers are always afraid that their sister will have a bad time, and they don't worry about what their sister said when they go back to their parents' house, and the uneasy point lies here.

Presumably when to get enough money together and then hand it over to my sister, when can I feel at ease.

I just don't dare to think about when I will have the money to spare.

Therefore, the Yu family can only do it when it is difficult, and it is incumbent on them to make trouble when it is useful. Like a poor family, there is nothing to do, all you can do is to prepare as much as you can.

At this time, the men could not say anything moving.

Xu Youliang could only help to pour things while chatting with Yu Qinniang: "Your sister has been very tired these days, and I heard her say that she has to go to the field to collect vegetables these days." When the rooster didn't crow, she got up. ”

followed him, and he didn't enjoy any blessings.

As a mother's family, he didn't feel distressed, but he didn't care about it:

"Brother-in-law, isn't that normal? It's good to be able to do something, if the mother-in-law of the Zhuang family is not so capable, when will the life be lived? It depends on the legs and feet to be diligent. My mother often said at home, my sister has fallen into the nest of blessings, the last time I went back to my sister's house, I also talked about it, your aunt treated her like a daughter, after my sister left, how happy I was. ”

Vigorously think about it, and follow his brother-in-law to not enjoy any blessings, because his brother-in-law is an elder brother in the Xu family, and the eldest brother above is gone, and the brother-in-law is the eldest brother, and it is not good to be humble. He also has a younger brother below him, who understands this kind of thinking.

But her sister has a good mother-in-law, and she can't wait for the day when she will no longer dress in tatters, and she will have to rely on her mother-in-law. You can also rely on your mother-in-law to eat and drink spicy food, and the blessing is behind.

Vigorously inadvertently the truth.

Vigorously wiping the sweat on his head, pushing a cart of things along the way is really tiring, and he smiled when he said this: "By the way, brother-in-law, you don't know, your aunt and my aunt are famous in other villages." Even our house has been borrowed. ”

"What light?"

"I think there will be more places to borrow light in the future, and as for now, our village is looking down on my family. When the news of the mutual market first came, many people in our village knew that your family had bought a large house and praised my sister for marrying into a wealthy family. Li Zheng also deliberately went to my house to inquire, not to say that there are people in your house who have a way, let me tell me through and don't hide it. You said that I can't tell nothing, as if what's going on, just tell my sister to come to the house a while ago to prepare more ura grass. ”

Dali laughed, and then the whole village prepared the Ula grass, which was very inexplicable.

"Do you have a lot at home?"

"Much, brother-in-law, don't worry, I have beaten and dried the indigo grass into silk early, and I have stuffed a lot of the clothes I am wearing today. By the way, to what extent has the new house been built? ”

Xu Lao Er smiled: "Let's go, I'll take you to have a look, it just so happens that your sister is over there, and then we will go up the mountain to move wood." ”

"Sister!"

Yu Qinniang was very happy to see her eldest brother.

But this joy is not a reason for her to cook lavishly. Listen, what kind of nonsense is her man talking about? Let her exchange soybeans for dried tofu and fried chili, let her go to the third aunt's house next door to buy eggs and fried eggs, let her fry peanuts to make four dishes, and order her to use salt to make the loaches spit mud.

"I can't do that."

"Why?" Xu Lao Er glared.

"I can't let the people in the village pay attention to it, yo, her brother is here, and the food is really different."

"It's hard for you to pick the door and have an idea. The people in the village will only say, you can't be reluctant when your brother comes, and you can still be generous to anyone. I see that you are a little underwhelmed, happy, I entertain my brother-in-law, I can't speak well, what's wrong! ”
