Chapter 91 Pretending to go buy turnips
As a farmer, whatever vegetables you want to eat are to buy seeds in advance, and when spring and autumn come, bury them in the yard and plant them, Shen Su'e has never gone to the market to buy radishes, and she was surprised at this time: "Radishes are so cheap?" ”
Da Dongzi nodded, "Cabbage and radishes are very cheap, so Captain Li doesn't let us grow vegetables in the field, dozens of acres of land can't be sold for much money, it's better to plant wheat and corn, then the white flour can be sold for at least one dime, and sometimes the corn ballast is eight or nine cents a catty, and sometimes it can rise to a dime." ”
"Oh, that really says we bought the turnips ourselves."
After discussing it, Shen Su'e didn't want to be suspected, so she asked her sons to put all the corn into sacks and put it on their own wooden cart.
"Heap the celery on another cart and cover it with burlap," she commanded, "and you two push the cart out and find a place to hide it, and when it is ten o'clock, you will pretend that you have just bought it." ”
No one had a problem with her decision.
Taking advantage of the fact that the sky was just slightly bright, there were not many people in the village, Sihaizi pushed the cart out of the door, and his fifth brother followed.
When they were about to reach the entrance of the village, they met the Lin family.
Because Liu Damei was pregnant, she asked her husband to help her pick up the fecal water, and she followed by herself, disgusted and said, "Ouch, can you do it?" Don't get on you, why are you working worse than me? I might as well do it myself. ”
"Then you can do it yourself," Lin Desheng frowned tightly and said angrily, "This is not my job in the first place, the first time I picked up a lot of dung, this smell is really stinky, it would be good if I could help you finish it......"
"I asked you to go to the captain and say, but you refuse, I'm pregnant, why do you want me to pick up feces? Really! ”
Lin Desheng said helplessly: "Why do you want me to talk to Captain Li?" You can't even see it in your belly, besides, pregnancy is not an excuse, whose daughter-in-law is not six or seven months old and still works in the field? It's just that you're squeamish, I don't know if it's been two months, just don't do this and that. ”
When they were arguing, Liu Damei noticed two people pushing a cart not far away, and said to her husband, "Huh? It seems to be the two sons of the Jiang family? ”
"yes, what are they going to do early in the morning?"
After Lin Desheng was puzzled, he greeted them, "Sihaizi, where are you going?" What are you doing with a cart? ”
Sihaizi felt weak and paused.
"Huh?" He said a little nervously, "I'm for that ......"
Without waiting for him to stammer, Wu Chaozi replied without blushing and without a heartbeat: "Didn't my family invite a pork banquet today?" My mother told us to go to the nearby market and see if we could buy some food. ”
"Grocery shopping?" Liu Damei joked, "I heard that your family has invited more than half of the people in the village, how many vegetables do you want to buy?" ”
Lin Desheng happened to be tired of picking dung, put the dung bucket on the ground, wiped his sweat, and chatted casually: "There should be few people selling vegetables in the market, right?" The vegetables are expensive and no one wants them, they are too cheap and not cost-effective, so for that money, it is better to keep them for yourself. ”
"Then you'll have to try your luck, maybe someone will sell it today?" Wu Chaozi smiled and said, "After all, Lingbao said that I was lucky today, haha, my sister has always spoken very smartly." ”
Feeling that he was deliberately saying this to himself, Liu Damei's face became not very good-looking, "Huh! What's the spirit? Don't fool others, don't fool yourself! ”
"Don't you know better than we do?"
Seeing that Chaozi was going to quarrel with Liu Damei again, Sihaizi was afraid that the corn on his cart would be discovered, so he hurriedly urged: "Okay, don't say it, let's go quickly, we have to hurry up to the market, we have to hurry up to the market, if we go late, there will be no one, if we don't buy anything at that time, my mother will scold us to death." ”
"Humph! I'm too lazy to argue with her! After Wu Chaozi finished speaking, he continued to follow his fourth brother out of the village.
Liu Damei looked at their backs as they walked away, and sighed, "What the hell, didn't you just pick up a girl's piece?" It's really a treasure, what do you have to do every day? What kind of pork banquet is there to hold, what is the stinky show? Wait, see if that girl can keep you busy! ”
Several families living at the entrance of the village heard the conversation between her and the two brothers of the Jiang family, and at this time they listened to Liu Damei's scolding endlessly, and they all walked out of the courtyard.
"Big girl, I heard that the Jiang family didn't invite you to this pork banquet, no wonder you are so sour," said the woman holding the child, "I advise you to say a few words, so as not to offend the lucky star, and you will feel good when the time comes." ”
"What Fuxing, have you all been brainwashed by the Jiang family one by one?"
Another middle-aged woman said, "People's spiritual treasures are lucky stars!" Before, she asked her eldest brother to dig up ginseng, and this time she directly picked up a wild boar, but people are good-hearted, the ginseng was eaten by the black-eyed woman, and the wild boar was given to all of us to eat, which is like you? almost killed the black-eyed woman, and sent Aunt Wang to the hospital again, you have to worry, you will be punished for doing too many bad things! ”
"Okay, mother, talk to her less, lest you get bad luck......"
Liu Damei didn't get angry, and said with her stomach up: "What bad luck?" I'm pregnant with my son now, and I'm blessed! ”
The older woman sneered, "You have a baby in your belly? Fool whom? I look at the way you stand, and it doesn't look like you're pregnant with a child. ”
"I'm just pregnant, I threw up yesterday!" Liu Damei said excitedly.
"What's wrong with throwing up? Have you gone to see Chen Barefoot? Or did you go to the health center for a check-up? Don't eat a bad stomach, right? Hahahaha......"
For a moment, everyone laughed.
Liu Damei had to argue again, but her husband felt too embarrassed, so he picked up the dung bucket again, "Let's go quickly!" Don't be ashamed! ”
Seeing that her husband left these words and walked away quickly, Liu Damei hurriedly caught up and shouted angrily: "Who did I lose?" I'm pregnant with your son! ”
They didn't go far, and everyone's laughter came from behind them, "Desheng, you better take your daughter-in-law to check, don't have gastrointestinal problems, think you're pregnant, and talk nonsense everywhere, that's really going to be laughed to death." ”
"yes, hahahaha......"
Lin Desheng felt that his face was about to be lost, "In the future, don't open your mouth and shut up that you are pregnant with a child, and your belly will not be revealed." ”
"They all have brain problems," Liu Damei said angrily, "as if they were drugged by that Lingbao, they all helped the Jiang family to speak." ”
"The Jiang family invites everyone to eat pork, if you don't help them talk, can you help us talk? Really, don't hurt me anymore! ”
"I just see that those people in the Jiang family are not pleasing to the eye, what are they doing one by one? See, the good fortune is coming to an end, and sooner or later they will be unlucky......"
Before Liu Damei finished speaking, the rope on her husband's flat shoulder suddenly broke, the entire wooden barrel fell to the ground, and a large bucket of was all sprinkled on her body impartially.
