Chapter 124: Correspondence

The two of them chatted here, chatting while the work in their hands did not stop, although it was raining outside, but the work in the field could not be left undone.

Even Gu Siwei knew that this rain might fall for a few days, but Sun Laibao and Ma Chunya wouldn't know?

The two of them saw that God was going to shake his face, so they came back to pack up their things, brought farm tools and went to the field, and had to dig the drainage ditch in the field, and if it was passed, they would dig a little deeper, and if it was not passed, they would dredge the ditch.

In a word, Tian is not afraid of having nothing to do, but he is afraid that there is no work in the eyes of people.

Ma Chunya and Sun Laibao are not lazy people, in fact, lazy people have not survived in the mountain village, because as long as you don't work, you have to starve, no one will help you, at most it is two meals, if there is a family to help you for a year or two, then someone in their family will be hungry, or even die.

From this point of view, it is not for nothing that Sicui's cousin's family does not want to see her, no one will tie up their mouths and not eat cereals.

In the end, it's still a poor word.

Sun Laibao said a word to his daughter-in-law, and was about to go to the field first, and was about to leave the hall with a hoe on his shoulder, when he saw someone coming in in the rain at the door.

If you look closely, it is Gu Siwei, who has just been out for less than 20 minutes.

"Brother Siwei, why are you back?"

This time, Sun Laibao's greeting was quite smooth, and there was no stumbling at all, like flowing water, and even at this moment Sun Laibao forgot what he had just suffered not long ago.

Gu Siwei didn't come empty-handed, carrying the basket he had just taken home with one hand, and a bag with the other, which contained more than 20 catties of white noodles.

People helped find fruit seedlings, Gu Siwei's temperament can't be taken for granted, let alone Ma Chunya's two sons, even if Wu Meiling and his wife give things, which one of them will not go back to the past?

It's not something to burn, but it's a matter of correspondence, so that the relationship between everyone who comes and goes can get along, always giving and receiving, that's not the way to get along, that's between father and son, even between father and son sometimes because of the conflict between pay and income, not to mention ordinary people.

Sun Laibao saw the bag in Gu Siwei's hand, and at first glance began to estimate the weight of the things, of course, guessing the contents of the matter.

The food is certain, but I don't know if it's sorghum rice or stick noodles, anyway, no matter which one it is, it is very much needed for Sun Laibao's family.

When is it now, it is the time when last year's savings are almost eaten up, and this year's planting has not come down, as the old saying goes, when the green and yellow are not harvested, not to mention this bag of grain, even a bowl of grain is enough for the family to eat for a day.

Dry food? That's impossible, what grain must not be mixed with wild vegetables to eat, or one person must not dry up a large bowl of grain?

That's how the farmer eats now, and that's what he eats all year round.

"I came to return the basket, and when I went to the old house to look for it, I found that there was still this thing at home, don't dislike it."

Seeing that Sun Laibao turned around and came to the hall with him, Gu Siwei put the bag in his hand at the door, and at the same time put the basket in his other hand on the bag.

Ma Chunya immediately felt very unhappy, you are too much of that expression.

"I said Brother Siwei, you will see the outside world if you do this, it's not an expensive thing, it's just a few broken seedlings, I also started it casually, there are not many fruit trees in our countryside, but there are many fruit tree seedlings here, although they grow into few, but this thing is really worthless......

Ma Chunya said vigorously.

Gu Siwei waved his hand when he heard this, and deliberately made a straight face: "Sister-in-law, you give me something, I will give a little when I return the basket here, everyone is called to come and go, don't mind, there is really nothing else at home, I want to give a little more, but there is no one here in the old house, that is, I left a little food for my friends."

Gu Siwei is Hu Kan, Ma Chunya also knows that Gu Siwei is Hu Kan, who will put food in a place where he does not live often, isn't that equivalent to feeding a mouse.

But everyone knows that if you don't break it, if you don't break it, you are still good friends!

"That's okay, I have to rush home, I don't worry about leaving Sicui alone at home, that's it, sister-in-law, Brother Laibao, you two rest, I'll go back."

"If you don't stay to eat, I'll make a few side dishes, and let you come to Brother Bao to accompany you to drink two cups," Ma Chunya said politely.

Gu Siwei knew that people were polite, with his family's living standard, if he drank two cups of the whole dish today, his family of seven or eight would be hungry tomorrow.

"You're welcome, there's a chance."

Gu Siwei waved his hand, turned around and entered the rain, shrunk his head and quickly disappeared at the gate of the courtyard with a torn dress.

The two of them looked at each other, Ma Chunya made a look, and Sun Laibao willingly closed the gate in the courtyard.

When I returned to the hall, I saw that my daughter-in-law Ma Chunya had already opened the bag.

Inside is more than 20 catties of white noodles, white white flowers, and the two of them sighed for a while.

"Look, this is the real person, you have helped Yang Chuanwu so many times, in addition to bringing back two potatoes for you, which time has you brought back something more than three cents? Look at the four dimensions of others, this is the person who does great things, this is the capable person, there is no one in the stone mill village who is said to be as ...... as the master."

Ma Chunya pointed to the white face and scolded the man from Shimo Village again.

Sun Laibao can't refute it now, because what Ma Chunya said is the truth, except for Gu Siwei, who has heard of sending a bag of twenty catties of white noodles at once.

Don't say it's a gift, even if it's your own family, you may not be able to eat it a few times a year, don't look at the farms outside are all plains, they still can't eat the white noodles they grow a few times a year, they are all stick noodles mixed with wild vegetables.

Even for many years, the villagers outside are not as good as the mountain families in Shimo Village, especially in the famine years, sometimes a few hares can be exchanged for a woman, otherwise the group of people in Shimo Village would have died long ago because of no queen.

Sun Laibao swallowed his saliva and said to Ma Chunya: "Mother-in-law, let's make some white flour cakes tonight, shall we?" ”

"You deserve to eat white flour cakes too?" Ma Chunya said angrily.

However, soon Ma Chunya said again: "Take these noodles and exchange them for some miscellaneous grains at the ghost set, these twenty catties can be exchanged for fifty or sixty catties of coarse grains, which is enough for our family to eat for a month." If you eat white flour bread, you are not afraid to do evil! If you want to eat, wait for the Siwei brothers' family to work and earn it. ”

Sun Laibao stopped talking.

Seeing her husband's appearance, Ma Chunya was a little reluctant, at this time, women don't look at some of them with teeth and claws, but they really feel sorry for their old men, and some of them are even if they have just been beaten, and they can still ask if they are hungry after wiping their tears.

"In this way, use a pound of noodles to brand a few small cakes, one for each in-laws, one for you and the child," Ma Chunya said.

Willing to give to her in-laws, but also willing to give her husband and children, she is reluctant to give it to herself, many women in this era are like this, and they have a strong spirit of dedication to the family.

Men in this era are generally hard-working, women are diligent and thrifty, and the two of them are working together and trying to improve the life of the family.

"I'll share a piece with you, I have to taste it, I haven't eaten white flour cakes for a long time" Sun Laibao couldn't be willing to eat alone.

Gu Siwei didn't know that because of his own bag of noodles, there was a touching little story in Ma Chunya's house, he was not short of food, and his home of white rice and white noodles was never broken.

It's just that Sicui doesn't say it, and Gu Siwei doesn't mention it, so the people in the village know that Gu Siwei's family eats well, but it's so good that people actually have white rice and white noodles every day, and no one dares to think so.

When I arrived at my old house, I lifted the curtain covering the ship, looked at the progress of my ship, and found that the ship had roughly a shelf, and it was estimated that it would be about the same in another twenty days.

Of course, if the weather is good, if the weather is bad, you can only push it back.

Covered his boat and got on the raft, Gu Siwei carried the fence into the mountain, and as soon as he entered the canyon, the grass flowers and squares were called over, and he was used as a fish-shaped engine to push the raft upstream.

When passing by Liu Fulin's two docks, the rain was heavy, and it was so loud that Gu Siwei, who was originally going to go to the two docks, directly gave up this idea.

Just when Gu Siwei's raft was about to reach the Silver Pine Cliff, he found that Liu Fulin was setting up a small boat and lowering it all the way upstream.

"Uncle, where did you come from?"

Gu Siwei was a little confused.

Liu Fulin was very fast, and he didn't hear what Gu Siwei said, only heard a few words, mixed with the sound of rain, and then the boat took Liu Fulin away from him several meters away.

Gu Siwei wanted to go back and ask, but looking at the rain, he just forgot it.

came to the Silver Pine Cliff, bolted the raft, Gu Siwei went up the cliff, it is estimated that Sicui could not be stupid enough to be on the edge of the cliff, so Gu Siwei did not call the pony and other monkeys, and directly used the space to go up the cliff.

When he arrived at the cliff, he found that it was as he expected, so he ran towards his house with a trot.

When I arrived at the door of the big house, I saw that Sicui was busy here, and there was an extra coat on the small body, which was still a new one.

Not only did Sicui have an extra robe on his body, but there was also a new robe on the ground next to him.

"Brother, are you back?"

When Sicui saw that Gu Siwei was back, he immediately ran over and helped Gu Siwei take off the basket on his back.

Gu Siwei put the basket on his back and asked, "Where did you get the clothes?" ”

"Lord Fu Lin sent it over, he mended the clothes a few days ago, and thought that we didn't have any clothes, so he simply pulled up the longevity and made two pieces, and today it happened to rain and sent it to us," Si Cui said.

Gu Siwei immediately grasped the point.

"Sent here? Is the uncle so powerful now, can he actually move the boat to the bottom of the cliff? ”

Gu Siwei thinks it's a pity that Liu Fulin doesn't go to the Olympics for rowing, what kind of arm strength is this? Without grass flowers and cubes, Gu Siwei couldn't have done anything to get the raft on this side.

Si Cui said: "No, Master Fu Lin is the help of the grass flowers and squares called, otherwise where can he shake the pulp, and he must not be tired to death."

"Hmm, make the grass flowers and blocks?"

This time Gu Siwei was even more surprised.

"What Lord Fu Lin said, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, but it works today," Si Cui said.

There are two brothers and sisters, one is called Liu Fulin and the other is called Liu Fulin Grandpa, and they don't know how to talk about the seniors, but the two of them don't care, anyway, they call each other smoothly, and others don't care about it after listening to it for a long time, so they keep calling it down.
