Splendid peasant girl busy farming

5649--Andrew

Yang Huasheng immediately lowered his face: "Uncle, what are you talking about? You are my uncle, and I am your nephew. As a nephew's filial uncle, it is only right and proper. How can you ask Yongxian for money? You are underestimating me. !"

Old Yangtou laughed, raised his hand and patted Yang Huasheng's shoulder: "Okay, okay, that uncle won't see you anymore, I accept your filial piety!"

The old man turned his head and yelled at Yu Xingkui: "Xingkui, come here and move this wine jar to my room, and bring a stool for Hua Sheng."

When Yang Huasheng removed the cork to let Old Yang sniff the wine, Yu Xingkui had already washed his hands and stood aside.

Now, when he heard the old man's order, he immediately came forward with a smile and took the wine jar and sent it to the house.

When he came out, he was holding a stool in one hand and a teacup in the other.

"Brother Huasheng, drink some tea."

"Okay, thank you brother Xingkui."

Yang Huasheng took the tea, pulled over the stool and sat down on the soft chair of old Yangtou, and accompanied the old man to bask in the sun, drink tea, and do the homework.

……

"Qing'er, what's the matter with Uncle Xingkui?"

When dusk fell, Yang Ruoqing had just seen off a guest.

Luo Fengtang came from the backyard, saw the man's back, and asked her.

Yang Ruoqing turned around and blinked at Luo Fengtang with a smile: "Tell me the news."

Luo Fengtang raised his eyebrows slightly.

Yang Ruoqing went on to say: "That Uncle Hua Sheng, he couldn't let go of his breath, so he sent a jar of Tianma wine to my grandfather today."

Luo Fengtang was not confused.

"The drunken man doesn't mean to drink, is this a complaint against you? Or do you want to use your master's relationship to please your big brother?" He asked.

Yang Ruoqing smiled: "You have guessed everything."

"He wanted to beg my hall brother to support his son Yang Yongbing, so he flattered him to my grandfather."

Luo Fengtang nodded, and pondered: "As a parent, I can understand the desire for a son to become a dragon. However, his son is destined not to be a dragon. Rather than spending money on giving gifts everywhere, it is better to calm down and think about how to teach his son well. .”

Yang Ruoqing picked up a feather duster and lightly dusted the fine dust on the porcelain vases in the main room, and said to Luo Fengtang, "These people are used to eating and waiting to die in the transport team, and suddenly they lost this job. It has collapsed, and they are begging people to pray to Buddha to find errands everywhere. The old farmers who have lived on the fields for generations are unwilling to go home and pick up the handle of a hoe to plan food. I really don’t know what to say.”

Even now, whenever she and Luo Fengtang are at home, they will go to the fields to actively participate in farm work.

During the twelfth lunar month, blacksmith Luo put water in his fishpond to catch fish. In such a cold day, it would have been someone else's family who would have thrown a handful of money and hired someone to do it.

But Luo Fengtang rolled up his sleeves and went to battle in person, bringing a few fish farming partners together to cast water and cast nets, she also took Luo Baobao, and the two of them were waiting on the shore with wooden barrels, and the fish he caught were still alive. With the mud, it was thrown into the barrel alive and kicking.

When I came back at night, I stewed fish with white radish and put red dried chili peppers. The whole family sat around the iron pot and drenched in sweat.

This is life, the original flavor, a life of self-sufficiency!
Luo Fengtang was not idle either, he brought all the chairs in the main room to their original positions and arranged them, the two of them chatted one after another.

"You can't buy Tianma wine weighing five catties without four hundred Wen." Yang Ruoqing continued.

"Uncle Hua Sheng is going all out for Yongbing's errand. He is trying to please my grandfather so that the lobby brother can arrange an errand for him. What else can he do? Take him to Baige Town to raise fish and shrimp? Raise mussels? Just With Yong Bing's temperament, he can't bear hardships, it's impossible for Datang brother to turn a blind eye like I did back then." She said again.

Luo Fengtang smiled: "These are all transactions between them, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, it has nothing to do with us anyway."

Yang Ruoqing nodded: "I'm just a spectator, I was thinking, my grandfather likes to show off his prestige the most, so he will definitely take over this stall."

"Especially because we threw it out. We became a villain, and he came to be a good person, so he will definitely help. But..."

"But what?"

"However, my grandfather's temperament is quite different from before, and his style of doing things has also changed. Uncle Hua Sheng wants the hall brother to arrange a leisurely errand for Yong Bing. He will definitely not be able to get it with only five catties of gastrodia majik, no If there is an accident, my grandfather will probably knock on Uncle Hua Sheng a few more times!"

Regarding Yang Ruoqing's speculation about the shortcomings of these parents, Luo Fengtang did not question it at all.

Because countless times of practice have proved that she is talented in this area, guesses have never been missed.

He said: "It's still the same sentence, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. We are outsiders and stay out of the matter."

……

The next morning, when Yang Ruoqing took the clothes of the two families to wash by the pond, she happened to meet Mrs. Kong, Huasheng's wife.

Mrs. Kong was washing a chicken. The chicken had shed its feathers and was disemboweled there. There was a pile of chicken offal in the bowl next to it.

The two looked at each other, Yang Ruoqing's expression was normal, but Kong's expression turned cold, and she deliberately turned her face away.

Yang Ruoqing ignored the woman's expression and walked straight up the river with the tub in her hand.

Several women by the pond greeted her warmly and asked her to wash at their place. There happened to be a seat available, so Yang Ruoqing was naturally not polite.

As soon as he squatted down, he heard a woman chatting up to Mrs. Kong: "Oh, Yong Bing Niang, you are really willing, this hen is so fat, why don't you save the eggs for money?"

Mrs. Kong used her fingernails to dig out the remaining blood in the chicken's abdominal cavity, and said to the woman next to her who was interrogating: "Your words are too flattering to my family. In the past, my family's Yongbing worked in the transport team, and at any rate, they were reluctant to give up when they had some income." , now that Yongbing of my family has lost his job, the days will be even tighter, how dare we kill an old hen to eat!"

There is something in the words, insinuating.

The woman who asked the question was not stupid, she saw Yang Ruoqing not far away, and knew that Kong said this on purpose, just to knock Yang Ruoqing up.

The woman who asked the question deliberately avoided mentioning the fact that Yong Bing had lost his job, and simply asked Kong: "Ah, listen to what you said, are you going to have a distinguished guest at noon?"

Kong said 'hmm', "Hua Sheng felt sorry for his uncle, who was getting old and living alone, and there was an inconsiderate helper by his side, so he came back to discuss with me and wanted to take his uncle home for lunch, no, As soon as I was cruel, I killed the old hen as a treat!"

The woman who asked the question was stunned again and again, Yang Huasheng's uncle?Which one?
"Didn't your Huasheng's uncle die a long time ago? How can there be an uncle?" the woman asked.

Kong stopped what he was doing and raised his head to stare at the woman: "Look at you, you are in a daze, Old Uncle Yang!"
