Dressed as an old leftover man in ancient times Section 150
"I was visited a few years ago, and two of them had good families and children. It's just that I want a wife and a virtuous wife, and if I don't want a dignified and generous daughter-in-law, how can others tolerate my daughter's childish nature. And this girl is still angry, and she is afraid that she will grind when she goes out. ”
"I think Yingchun's temperament is very good, if it is really soft, and I dare not say it when I am angry at my mother-in-law's house, then you are not distressed to be a mother. If you want me to say that it is better to find someone nearby who knows the roots, with you and the Changgen brothers, as well as the help of the political security Huaishu, how will you not be wronged. ”
"The old sister is talking about this reason, but where to find such a person. Hey, I can't sleep even if I think about it. ”
Hearing this, Song Lanshi patted the back of Yang Shuyi's hand and comforted with a smile: "Isn't this still small, you can always find it." ”
The two were talking, and suddenly heard the voices of Lu Zheng'an and Song Huaishu outside, and the two of them hurriedly got up from the kang and saw Lu Changgen staggering in with another jar of wine.
Seeing that the two of them were getting more and more excited, Song Lanshi saw that it was already dark outside, turned around and dressed Lu Xingyi, and immediately beckoned Lu Zhengan and Song Huaishu to drag Song Xiren out.
At this time, Lu Zhengan didn't expect that the two elders would drink like this, so he hurriedly set up his father-in-law, said hello to Yang Shuyi and went out.
Lu Changgen, who was on the side, saw that his drinking friend was being dragged behind, and he was immediately a little unhappy. was about to get up to chase after him, but was slapped back to the chair by Yang Shuyi.
……
I stayed up all night before I got home, and I tossed and turned for another day. After carrying his father-in-law home, Lu Zhengan felt almost exhausted.
Without waiting for Song Huaishu to boil water and wash, he lay down on the bed in the back room and fell asleep. By the time I woke up, it was already the next day.
Because he was worried about going down the mountain today to see people killing New Year's pigs, Lu Xingyi also woke up early. However, seeing that his father and father were sleeping soundly, he did not dare to disturb the two. A person lay in the bed and clasped his fingers silently, playing happily.
Xu felt that someone was looking at her, the little girl slowly turned her head, and saw her father looking at her sideways with a smile on his face, Lu Xingyi got up from the bed and ran towards Lu Zheng'an wearing only a white undershirt.
"When did you wake up, why didn't you call Daddy?"
Hearing this, Lu Xingyi put his fat little finger to his mouth and whispered to Lu Zhengan: "Daddy hasn't woken up yet, be quiet." ”
Seeing that Lu Zhengan nodded in agreement, Lu Xingyi put his arms around his neck and continued to ask: "Father, did you kill the big fat pig today?" When are we going to see it? ”
"Get up now, shall you?" Lu Zhengan learned from Lu Xingyi's appearance, deliberately lowered his voice, and saw his daughter smiling and nodding at him with bright eyes, Lu Zhengan hugged her and turned over and sat up. took out Lu Xingyi's cotton clothes and pants from the wind-pressing quilt and helped her put them on her body.
Song Huaishu had already woken up while the father and daughter were talking, but the sleep was so comfortable that he didn't want to open his eyes.
Listening to the sound of Lu Zhengan and his daughter laughing and playing, Song Huaishu slowly opened his eyes. Stretched out his hand and poked Lu Xingyi's white and tender feet, and successfully saw her roll into the bed with her feet crossed, Song Huaishu couldn't help laughing.
Lu Zhengan was worried that Song Huaishu would catch a cold, so he pulled the quilt that Lu Xingyi rolled away. He turned around and touched the top of his hair, and asked softly, "But we woke you up?" ”
"No, it's time to wake up." Song Huaishu hugged Lu Zhengan's waist and rubbed against him like a kitten. Feeling Lu Zhengan's body stiffen in his arms, and when he wanted to get up and prepare to leave, a slightly cool hand suddenly poked into the quilt, and was immediately grasped by one of them.
Seeing this, Song Huaishu's body suddenly weakened, and he hurriedly took his hand and begged for mercy.
Lu Zhengan didn't want to let him go, but he just thought that there was still a lot to do today, and only after Song Huaishu begged for mercy for the third time did he withdraw his hand.
"If I hadn't killed the New Year's pig today, I wouldn't have to 'clean you up'." As he spoke, Lu Zhengan twisted Song Huaishu's nose, and before he could turn around, he suddenly heard a shout from behind him, and Lu Zhengan had just turned his head halfway, and then felt his back sink suddenly.
I saw Lu Xingyi lying on Lu Zhengan's back like a large frog, and his small fist smashed down like a shower of raindrops.
"Don't bully my daddy!"
Lu Zhengan pulled Lu Xingyi into his arms with his backhand, and put people on Song Huaishu, who was already blushing with laughter, and squeaked his two big hands on the two of them.
It was so noisy that both the father and daughter had a faint sense of sweat, and Lu Zhengan stopped the two.
"Alright, alright, truce. At this time, it is estimated that Uncle Changgen and they should bring back a few New Year pigs, and we have not seen the New Year pigs killed, so hurry up and go over to see the excitement. ”
Only then did Lu Xingyi think about killing the New Year's pig, so she smoothed the messy little soft hair to the back of her head, and then ran outside with the big cotton shoes that were made for her.
After Song Lan got up, he listened to the frolicking of the three members of the family in the back room and did not disturb them, and began to clean up breakfast after washing. Hearing the sound of the door of the inner room, he stretched out his head and saw that it was Lu Xingyi, so he hurriedly got up and helped her put on the padded jacket.
"It's so cold outside, why don't you get dressed and come out, and your hair is messy like a little madman."
In the chatter, Lu Zhengan and Song Huaishu also followed out of the room. Watching her mother-in-law fix her daughter's hair, the two of them had a little sneering expression.
"Mother, what about my father? Why don't you see others? ”
Song Lanshi heard Song Huaishu's question, combed Lu Xingyi's hair, and replied without raising his head: "There will be a few more busy days in the shop, and I will rush back to the town as soon as it is dawn." Don't be stunned, you two should go wash your face and have breakfast. Fang Cai Erwang and that kid have been here once, and I heard that you all left before you got up. When you're done eating, go down the mountain and see, and if you have anything to do, go and stretch out your hand. ”
……
When Lu Zhengan's family of three came to the workshop, three big fat pigs of about 200 catties had been pulled back. Lying on the board at the door, he couldn't stop howling with his mouth open.
Lu Xingyi couldn't help pinching his little nose when he smelled the smell of pig feces, put his arms around Lu Zhengan's shoulders and said, "Oops, it stinks, it stinks." ”
Everyone looked at Lu Xingyi's appearance and immediately laughed. Yang Shuyi stepped forward to pick up Lu Xingyi and said softly: "Stinky and still coming?" What about your grandma, why didn't you come to see the excitement? ”
"Noisy laundry at home, said to come back later. Grandma, are you going to kill the big fat pig? ”
"Yes, when the water in the cauldron boils, you will start killing. Kill it later, give you the tail of the big fat pig, and you won't drool after eating. ”
Hearing this, Lu Xingyi looked outside curiously. Seeing Lu Tiezhu holding a pig-killing knife that had been sharpened, he was so frightened that he covered his eyes and lay on Yang Shuyi's shoulder and didn't dare to look at it again.
Song Huaishu also saw the scene of killing pigs for the first time, and he was inevitably a little scared for a while.
Seeing that he kept hiding, Lu Zhengan knew that he was also afraid, so he hurriedly stepped forward and covered his ears and eyes.
"It's strange that my daughter is very curious, and she learned it all from you."
Although Song Huaishu's eyes and ears were covered, Lu Zhengan's words were still clear. Just as he was about to open his mouth to defend himself, he heard Chen Zaohua laugh and joke: "Look at the two of you, you have been married for so long, your daughters are so old, and your relationship is still so good." ”
"That's natural, it's not easy to marry the brother who came home, so naturally I have to hurt it well. What's the matter, my iron bolt brother doesn't hurt you? ”
Chen Zaohua failed to tease Lu Zhengan and Song Huaishu, but was teased by Lu Zhengan, and immediately made a big red face.
After glaring at him, he immediately went out with a wooden basin.
However, at this moment, I saw Li Erwang walking in with a pale face. After seeing Lu Zheng'an and Song Huaishu in the workshop, his face froze, and he wanted to turn around and leave, but he didn't expect to be stopped by Lu Zheng'an.
"Erwang, why is your face so ugly, but what's wrong?"
Li Erwang naturally wouldn't tell a lie in front of Lu Zheng'an, but when he asked this, he hesitated for a moment before he said truthfully: "Nothing happened, but my eldest brother and sister-in-law went to my house to make trouble." He said that the original family was not fairly divided, and he had to re-divide it. ”
Chapter 132
Hearing Li Erwang's words, Lu Zhengan and Song Huaishu did not react. After all, Li Erwang and Li Dawang have been separated for several years, and when they first separated, Li Dawang's daughter-in-law, Wang Xiumei, not only took all the valuable things in the house, but also drove the old couple and Li Erwang to the old house with the wind on all sides.
On this matter, Li Dawang and Wang Xiumei were gossiped about by the villagers, and they themselves knew that they were not doing things properly, and they felt ashamed when they were first told about it. Later, there were more people who said that it didn't matter if they simply broke the jar and fell.
However, although Li Erwang's father and mother are not in good health, they are both diligent people, not to mention the refreshing profits in the fields at home, and every time Lu Zheng'an's peach orchard is fruitful, he will go to help, although the salary in his hand is not comparable with others, but his life is much better than before.
In addition, Li Erwang has been running around with Master Cao in recent years, and Master Cao has also treated him well, and he has really saved a lot of money in recent years.
Seeing that Li Erwang was getting older, Erwang's father and mother considered tearing down the family's old house and rebuilding it for the sake of the child's daughter-in-law.
However, I don't know how this word reached the ears of Li Dawang and Wang Xiumei. The two of them knew that the New Year's pigs were being killed in the workshop outside the village, so they took advantage of the fact that there was no one in the village and blocked the old couple and Li Erwang at home to make trouble with them.
The two elders of the Li family are temperless, and they have no way to deal with the eldest son and daughter-in-law who are like hobs. However, Li Erwang, who has been outside for the past few days, has a hard temper and writes with a broom, and only then does he drive people out.
It's just that the husband and wife will leave and let go, either the old couple will give them the money, or the new house to be built in the future will be given to them, otherwise, they will never give up.
After the separation, Li Dawang and Wang Xiumei relied on the things they got from the separation and the subsidies from their parents, and their lives were not bad. However, as the mother-in-law brother got married and had children, the amount of subsidies given by the mother-in-law was limited. In addition, the children in the family are growing up, and the cost of food is much higher than before, so they begin to make ends meet.
In the past few years, Li Erwang has worked diligently with his parents and a family of three, and life has been getting better and better, and the two of them have begun to feel unbalanced in their hearts. After listening to the gossip of the villagers about Li Erwang's family building a new house, Wang Xiumei forced Li Dawang to go to Li Erwang's house to make trouble with his parents.
After listening to Li Erwang's retelling, Lu Zhengan and Song Huaishu couldn't help but glance at each other, but they were surprised that Li Dawang and Wang Xiumei were so thick-skinned.
Looking at Li Erwang's embarrassed expression, Song Huaishu remembered his thoughts about Lu Yingchun, thought about it and asked, "Then, what are you going to do on your brother's side?" Are you still going to give in as you did before? ”
When Song Huaishu's voice fell, Li Erwang immediately stiffened his neck and retorted: "I can't do it, how can they give me the money I have saved so hard?" And my father, if I blindly indulge them like before, then don't blame me for going out of the house! ”
Hearing Li Erwang's words so resolute, Lu Zhengan and Song Huaishu were really a little surprised.
"You're saying this too early, so I'll have to ask your father what he means."
Li Erwang nodded, glanced at the two of them with a red face, and then whispered: "Brother Xiaoan, since I told you to be good to her, I won't let her suffer a trace of grievances. If my parents were still the same as before, I would really move out. After the big deal, just give more money. ”
Li Erwang's words really surprised Lu Zhengan, looking at Li Erwang with a red face and a resolute face, he recognized him a little more in his heart.
"It's really useless for you to talk to me about this, but what to do about it will have to be discussed with your father and mother." Lu Zheng'an really couldn't get involved in other people's housework, so when he heard the sound of pigs outside stopping, he hurriedly took Song Huaishu's hand and said to Li Erwang: "Okay, the pigs have probably been killed, and we can't just stay here to hide and relax, and go out to see if there is anything to help." ”
With that, Lu Zhengan took Song Huaishu and walked out of the workshop with Li Erwang.
Killing pigs is not only a manual work, but also a burial job, and everyone has a deep feeling for Lu Zheng'an, so naturally he will not interfere in this kind of work.
After being rejected one after another, Lu Zhengan and Song Huaishu simply didn't mix, and the two came to the back warehouse hand in hand to see the remaining dried fruits and preserved fruits inside.
Although there are not many dried peaches this year, many varieties of fruits can be harvested from Moling. When several masters were fine, they also figured out new varieties, and Lu Zhengan casually pinched a piece of dried pear and handed it to Song Huaishu for him to taste it.
"This year, the fruit trees on our three hills should be able to bear fruit, right? At that time, in our shop, it is estimated that dried peaches should be able to account for the majority. ”
Hearing this, Lu Zhengan nodded and replied: "We started by making dried peaches, and the main focus is naturally dried peaches." And over there in Moling, Brother Tie Bolt and they have already negotiated with He Zhonglin. In the future, the apricots, plums, plums, and other fruits in their village will be sold to our workshop, and the documents have already been set up. ”
Song Huaishu was a little surprised when he heard Lu Zhengan's words. "I don't even know when it happened."
Looking at Song Huaishu, his eyes widened, and he looked at himself with a look of surprise, and Lu Zhengan chuckled and helped him pull the placket of the padded jacket. "That is, in the past few days, we are not as good as Moling on our side to grow fruits, water and soil, so it is better to sign a deed with them directly and cooperate with them. In this way, not only can our workshop solve the problem of fruits, but also solve the problem of unsalable fruits in their village, which can be regarded as a win-win cooperation. ”
"Win-win cooperation?" Song Huaishu subconsciously repeated it, and just when Lu Zheng's heart was calm, thinking that his words were a little inappropriate, he saw Song Huaishu nodding and said, "I haven't heard of this word before, but it's quite appropriate to use it here." ”
Lu Zhengan didn't think much about Song Huaishu when he read it, so he was relieved.
The two of them walked around the barn for a while, and after talking about some trivial things, they slowly walked out of the barn.
At this time, the three big fat pigs have been killed and unloaded, the two iron pots with a diameter of one meter and a half next to them have been boiled with hot water, and the white fat in the other large pot has been put into the pot, ready to boil the meat oil and start frying the meat and meatballs.
In addition, considering that there are still many children in the village, everyone exchanged half a bag of ground eggs, peeled them and prepared them to be fried for the children as snacks.
As the white fat slowly turns yellow and shrinks, the fragrance fills the entire workshop. The sauerkraut white meat pot next to it kept bubbling hot, and the greedy saliva was dripping straight down.
Seeing that Lu Zhengan was being called away to speak, Song Huaishu and Lu Xingyi, father and daughter, were left behind the board behind the pot by the village aunt and aunt, and a large tea tray was placed in front of them.
When Lu Zhengan came back, the father and daughter were each on a small bench, sitting in front of the tea tray and eating very happily. The father and daughter had exactly the same movements and expressions, and Lu Zhengan's heart couldn't help but melt when he saw it.
Just as the stew was about to come out of the pot, I saw two horse-drawn carriages in the distance coming this way. Before Lu Zhengan could see who was coming, he saw a familiar face coming out of the carriage, and Lu Zhengan was looking at them with a puzzled expression. Ji Yueqiao grinned and waved at them.
Seeing that the person who came was Ji Yueqiao, it was needless to say that there was a carriage behind Lu Zhengan also guessed who the other party was.
hurriedly dropped the pork stick bone in his hand, wiped the oil on his hands with the rag on the table, and hurriedly greeted him.
When Lu Zhengan came to the carriage, the carriage of the carriage behind unexpectedly revealed the face of Mrs. Ji. After seeing Lu Zhengan, Mrs. Ji couldn't help laughing immediately.
"Old lady, are you from Jiang'an Town?"
Old Madam Ji helped Lu Zhengan and Ji Yueqiao's hands to get off the carriage, and replied as she walked, "Where, let's come back from Jiangnan." I happened to be passing through here, thinking that you and Huai Shu should have returned, so I turned around and took a look. ”
After listening to Mrs. Ji's words, Lu Zhengan couldn't help but be a little speechless. Although he had persuaded Mrs. Ji to go out for a walk before, he didn't expect that after the other party wanted to open it, he would have such a good time, if it was a few days late, I was afraid that he would have to spend years on the road.
Just as Lu Zhengan wanted to persuade her to say a few words, Song Huaishu led Lu Xingyi and walked out.
After seeing Mrs. Ji, Lu Xingyi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately stuffed the pig's tail in his hand into his father's hand, and he didn't care about wiping off the oil stains on his hands, and immediately ran towards Mrs. Ji.
"Zuzu, why are you here? Do you smell the smell of our boiled meat? ”
