Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 3733

When Yang Ruoqing mentioned that time, Daqiu grinned and nodded in agreement from time to time.

"Auntie has a really good memory. It's been several years, and I still remember it so clearly." Big Fair said.

Yang Ruoqing said with emotion: "It's slipped, it's been seven years, you've got a family, Dazhi has grown up, we're getting old."

Da Qiu said: "Auntie is not old at all, what she was like seven years ago, she is still stupid now, she hasn't changed at all!"

Yang Ruoqing smiled, seven years ago, she was 17 years old, 16 years old in the blooming season and 17 years old in the rainy season,

Now I am 24, and the children are all eight years old. No matter how well she takes care of herself, no one can escape the traces of time on her body.

It's just deep or shallow, fast or slow.

"It doesn't matter if you are old or not, it doesn't matter," Yang Ruoqing smiled and waved her hands.

"Let's talk about the business, big ball. Back then we paid enough money and entrusted the fishermen in your village to help you. Suddenly, the widow escorted your father's ashes back to his hometown in Yangzhou,"

"Is the road going well? Has it changed?" she asked.

The big ball said: "When I mentioned the matter of escorting my father's ashes back to my hometown in the countryside of Yangzhou, I couldn't get angry!"

Yang Ruoqing and Zuo Junmo looked at each other in surprise, Yang Ruoqing raised her hand: "Speak slowly, start from the beginning."

The big fairway: "When we set off, we went all the way east along the waterway. Originally, aunt and uncle, you paid enough for the shipping costs of the uncles in the same village."

"But after only one-third of the waterway, they started to play tricks, deliberately saying that the boat was broken, people had no strength, and they couldn't walk, so they deliberately delayed."

"My mother has no choice but to give them more money, and then go on."

"But they haven't been on the waterway for a day or two, and they deliberately slack off, especially when they encounter a slightly larger market town wharf, they deliberately park the boat by the wharf,"

"My mother had to give them money again, and they took the money and went to the market town on the shore to buy roast chicken and drink spirits."

"Sometimes I have to take prostitutes, and the prostitutes are caught by their wives, and those wives don't dare to treat their men like that, so they will run to my family's boat to find my mother's bad luck,"

"Blame my mother for not giving them money, so that they will become bad if they have money. Moreover, some people see that there are orphans and widows on our boat, and they want to come here to steal money and take advantage of my mother..."

"I don't know how many times my mother cried, knelt down, kowtowed and said good things to them all the way east!"

"As for our brothers and sisters, we were all worried and afraid all the way. We walked in the dark for more than a month. We guarded my father's urn every day, and the brothers and sisters hugged each other and cried."

"After staying like this for more than a month, we finally landed. The resettlement money that my aunt and uncle gave my mother is less than fifty taels left, hey!"

After listening to Da Qiu's narration, Yang Ruoqing slapped the table angrily.

"It's too much, it's too greedy, it's simply too much to fill!" Yang Ruoqing was so angry that she said two words 'too'.

Zuo Junmo's face darkened a bit, as for Da Zhi, who had been standing quietly beside him, his face was pale and his brows were tightly wrinkled.

The hand drawn by his side subconsciously clenched into a fist.

Here, Yang Ruoqing then asked Daqiu: "Then what happened later? How are you orphans and widows arranged?"

Da Qiu said: "Because my father died in a foreign land, and he didn't die at the end of his life. According to the customs in his hometown, he had to invite monks and Taoists to come back and do the water and land dojo for three days and three nights,"

"If you don't do that, the soul of the deceased will not be at peace. After the first seven days, he will not leave, and he will come back every two days to make a fuss, and the family will not be at peace."

"Don't do these two rituals, and don't let them be buried in the mountain behind the village. My mother has no choice but to do it."

"When my father is buried in the ground, there will only be one or two taels of silver left in my mother's hands." Da Qiu said.

"A tael of silver? Then how do your mothers live?" Yang Ruoqing continued to ask.

Da Qiu sighed, "It's very bitter, it's hard to describe in words, hey!"

Yang Ruoqing also sighed, "No matter how hard it is, at least your mother brought you up and married you a daughter-in-law.

"Where's your mother? Did she send you two to visit Dazhi this trip? Why didn't your mother come over by herself? How is she?"

Hearing Yang Ruoqing's question, Daqiu said, "Auntie, let my daughter-in-law Shui Lian talk about this matter."

"My voice is not very good. I feel uncomfortable when I talk too much at once. I want to cough, cough, cough..."

The big ball really ushered in a huge cough.

The daughter-in-law Zhang Shuilian who was sitting next to him hurriedly handed over a bowl of tea, "Hurry up and drink the tea, don't spit out the phlegm, don't dirty the aunt's house..."

Da Qiu covered his mouth, waved his hand at Zhang Shuilian, rushed out of the main room and coughed in the yard outside.

Zhang Shuilian wanted to follow her out, but was stopped by Dazhi.

"Sister-in-law, give me the tea. I'll take it to my elder brother. My sister-in-law will talk to my mother." He said, and hurried to the door with the tea.

Zhang Shuilian had no choice but to sit back again.

"My mother took the big ball and a few other uncles and sisters-in-law sold the family's several acres of land, collected nearly two taels of silver, and went to a nearby town to rent two houses."

Zhang Shuilian went on to talk about what happened later,
"There are so many people living in one room, and another room is used for breakfast shops, fried dough sticks, steamed buns, steamed buns, and Hanamaki,"

"Only relying on this penny and one thing to support the children of this big family. My natal family sells vegetables on the edge of the tile market in the town. This is how the marriage came to an end."

"My mother's body is a little worse than before, but I didn't come here this time because I'm not in good health and can't walk, but because I want to stay at home and take care of my grandson." Zhang Shuilian said.

Yang Ruoqing smiled: "Why, did you have a baby?"

Zhang Shuilian nodded a little embarrassedly: "Well, the boy was born just last year, and he is just over eight months old now."

Yang Ruoqing smiled, "That's pretty good, life flies so fast, your mother is now a grandmother."

"My aunt is coming soon, Dazhi's uncle and Chen'er brothers are over eight years old, and they will be almost there in ten years or so." Zhang Shuilian said with a smile.

Yang Ruoqing smiled until her eyes were bent into two crescents.

It's really different in ancient times. A niece and daughter-in-law are sitting here talking about holding a grandson with her 24-year-old aunt.

If this is in modern times, you are still studying in the third year of high school,
As for 24 years old, just graduated from graduate school, or just started working, it is the time to let yourself go and sway your youth.
