Chapter 204: Complaining
Yun Xue has been baking pancakes for several days in a row, and she has finally become more proficient, and she has saved several thick stacks of pancakes at home. Yun Xue stacked all the pancakes on top of the curtain and put them in the vat. When it's time to eat, dust the pancakes with a little water to make them soft and ready to be stacked and eaten.
"Okay, these pancakes are enough for us to eat for a while. I've been so tired these days. Yun Xue rubbed her sore shoulders and said.
"Eldest sister, your temper is too impatient. No matter what kind of work, you have to do it in one go, so can you not get tired? Take a good rest for a few days, you can't work so hard in the future. Yun Ting came back from outside, so he could see Yun Xue rubbing his shoulders. He stepped forward to help Yun Xue tap on his body, and muttered in his mouth.
"What do you know? There is less corn at home this year, so the eldest sister has to find more ways to get us something to eat? Don't look at these pancakes as inconspicuous, by the time you're hungry, they'll be good. Yun Ni glared at Yun Ting. In the past few days, the eldest sister has led herself and Tianfu to work non-stop at home, even pushing and grinding pancakes, and the three of them are tired enough.
"In two days, let's soak some more rhubarb rice and wait for the sticky fire spoon to be wrapped. Now it's quite cold outside, the sticky fire spoon is wrapped, put it outside and freeze, and when you want to eat, just take it back and heat it up, which is also convenient. This year, we planted so many red adzuki beans, and we just used them with a sticky fire spoon. Yun Xue let Yun Ting knock on her back, and after a few tosses, she felt much more comfortable.
Northeast people love to eat sticky things, and in winter, they usually wrap some sticky fire spoons or sticky bean buns and other foods. These things are ready to be put on the outside freeze, and when you want to eat, you can just take them back and heat them up, which is very convenient. And glutinous food is also more anti-hunger, stronger than bread or something. These are also coarse grains, at this time, every household does not have much fine grains, and those who can eat sticky fire spoons and sticky bean buns are good things.
"It's better for the eldest sister to be at home, and she can cook so many good things to eat." Yun Lei slapped a sycophant very dogleggy.
"What's not good, first, there is not enough food to eat this year, so we have to find a way to mix those beans and the like to eat. Second, we have planted some of the grain we have received this year, so we have to change it so that you can eat something fresh. Yun Xue smiled, she was so uncomfortable at home, she didn't think about what to eat, what else could she do?
"Okay, Yunting, you don't have to beat me anymore. Go and help me get some firewood back, let's get dinner first. Tianfu has also been tired these days, so you and Yunlei will do more. Yun Xue turned her head towards Yun Ting and said.
"Hey, I'll go." Yun Ting slipped out to hold firewood.
"Eldest sister, I'm not tired, you don't need to let Yun Ting and Yun Lei work." Tianfu said over there. He still holds Yunxia in his arms, and Xiao Yunxia likes to rely on Tianfu the most.
"Then you have to rest for two days, you are my younger brother, you are tired, and my sister is going to be distressed." Yun Xue treats Tianfu the same as Yun Ting. If Tianfu hadn't insisted on not studying, Yunxue would have wanted to send Tianfu to study. Fortunately, Tianfu followed Yunting and they also recognized a lot of words, and ordinary books can almost be read, and it is not too difficult to write and calculate. Yun Xue didn't force Tianfu to go to school.
"Compared to the second brother, what am I, eldest sister, you don't have to worry." Tianfu's heart warmed, the eldest sister was willing to adopt herself, and treated herself like a younger brother, this kindness, I really don't know how to repay it in the future.
When it comes to Yun Zhen, Yun Xue doesn't speak, Yun Xue knows best how hard the work in the mountain field is. I don't know how Yun Zhen is on the mountain, and whether he can endure those hardships. "Alas, your second brother is also a tough seed. If I want to say, he doesn't have to go to the mountain field this year, he has to go. Yun Xue sighed.
The sister and brother were talking, and Han Yue'e led Yushu in outside. "Yunxue, my aunt came to ask you for a favor." Han Yue'e said with joy on her face.
"Auntie, why are you free to come over today? If you say anything to help or not, you can say anything, and you can help others. I'll definitely help. Yun Xue quickly stood up and let Han Yue'e sit on the kang.
"It's not a big deal, I just thought that in the past few days, you would take the time to accompany Yuchan and Yushu to go around the state city and buy some cloth to use back. Someone came to the family today, and it was the people in the town who proposed to our Yuchan. That's pretty good, there's a shop in the town, and I've seen the young man, and the character is good. Han Yue'e said, the smile on her face never stopped.
"I'm thinking, one day I will take Yuchan over to take a look, if Yuchan is also willing, I will settle the family matter. You said that I was really a little busy with the successive happy events at home. Isn't this just thinking that you have been to the state city several times, so it is better to let you take Yushu and Yuqi and them to the state city to buy some things and come back. What's the matter, are you free here? Han Yue'e looked at Yun Xue.
"Yes, I'm idle at home and have nothing to do, so naturally I have time. My aunt set a date, and I took them to the state city. Auntie, your family has a lot of happy events this year, it's really good. When Yun Xue heard this, she naturally agreed.
These things should actually be helped by the Li family and the Yu family, but the Li family has been busy with his son Zhang Luo's family affairs recently, and the Han family and the Wu family are also a little stiff, and Han Yue'e doesn't want the Li family to help at all. Recently, Yu often went to Wu's house to help with some needlework or something, and the family still had to take care of it, so he really didn't have much time to go out to the state city.
Recently, the old Han family has stopped a lot. Han Ren took a few carpenter jobs, and the Li family detained their three sons to work at home and prevented them from going out to cause trouble again. Yun Feng can't study, in the county for more than a year, not only has his knowledge not grown at all, but all of them have been abandoned. Now Han Ren and Li don't let him study anymore, but work with Han Ren.
When the Li family was in the county seat, he originally wanted to take advantage of the momentum of the Zhou family to tell his son a good family business. But anyone who knows the roots of the Han family is unwilling to marry the Han family, after all, giving their daughters to others as concubines is not something that a good family can do. Some people don't say anything on the surface, but in fact, they look down on Han Ren and the Li family behind their backs. Therefore, Yun Feng's family affair has never been completed.
Now that he has returned to the village, the Li family no longer dares to pick and choose, and his son is getting older and older, and it will be even more difficult to talk about family affairs in the future. Moreover, there are two more Yun Zheng and Yun Zhang below, so they can't be delayed like this. But the current conditions of the Han family, if they want to give their three sons a daughter-in-law, it is a big expense, and the Li family is also worried.
Although the old man and the old lady of the Han family are a little selfish, they still love their grandson after all, and the old couple discussed wanting to help with some money, so that these children can talk about family affairs. The old lady of the Han family also often goes out to find those who get along well with her, and wants to ask them to help. But now Han Ren's house is in a mess, the two daughters are also at home, and the people in the village are talking about everything, and many people shake their heads when they hear that the Han family is talking about their daughter-in-law. The old lady is also worried enough, and this family affair is stunned.
"What do you think is this? The three children of the old family are all older, and if they don't say goodbye, it will be even more difficult to find a daughter-in-law in the future. The old lady sat on the kang and couldn't help muttering.
"What can I do? Look at the old people who are messing up now. Yu Tao and Yu Li are two girls, now this girl is not called a girl, and a daughter-in-law is not called a daughter-in-law, so they are mixed at home. The reputations of these two are stinking for dozens of miles, but who is willing to marry a girl from a good family? The old man sat on the kang and smoked a cigarette, "I don't dare to go out now, as soon as I go out, people will poke my backbone in the back." The style of the old Han family has ruined these losers. ”
The old man was a little anxious, choked all of a sudden, and coughed fiercely for a long time before he got better. "Alas, this is all sin, where were you full of corrupt Yunxue girl at the beginning, how is it now? You don't need to go out and ruin it, who doesn't look at our jokes behind their backs? This is retribution. ”
"You dead old man, what retribution? This is Yu Tao, their fate is not good, what does it have to do with me? Speaking of this, the old lady was also full of anger.
"Whether it has anything to do with you or not, you know it in your own heart. I know that now that people are on the other side of the clouds, life is getting better and better. Look at our side again, the eldest family is in a mess, and the third is also very difficult, and he is not as close to us as before. Yue'e was bent on coming back with us, but if you look at it now, she won't come to the door because she has been offended by you. Alas, old woman, the two of us are getting old and old, and we are confused. "The old man really regretted it at this time, but unfortunately, regret is useless.
The old lady opened her mouth to refute her husband's words, but she did not know what to say. She wanted to say that her family had nothing to do with her to the point where she was now, but after thinking about it carefully, she really couldn't say it. The old lady also sighed, "Well, what's the use of talking about this now? Let's still think of a way, let's take care of the three relatives of Yunfeng first. ”
"What else can I do? You've been visiting the neighboring villages for the past few days, isn't it useless? There's nothing I can do. The old man filled another bag of cigarettes and lit it and smoked it.
The old lady remembered something, "By the way, old man, what if you say that you would tell Yunfeng a daughter-in-law from across the river?" It's also a mess now, it's good to have a stutter, and we don't need to pay much dowry, and we can almost get a big girl back with some food. I've heard in the past two days that many villages are now talking about their daughters-in-law from the other side. ”
