Hard times have room

Chapter 206
This time, after Paulin went out, she stood at the gate, and after thinking about it, let's go to Dongmei's house to have a look!
Although she is afraid of ghosts, she does not believe in the theory of ghosts and ghosts. She firmly believes that there are no ghosts in the world, so those taboo rules do not matter.

Going out of the courtyard gate, first walk ten meters to the left, then turn left, go up a small slope, and walk seven or eight meters to Dongmei's house.

The courtyard door of Dongmei's house attached to the wall is very short, small and shabby. It always gives her the feeling that as long as she pushes hard, she can push it immediately. She always thought that the courtyard wall was just a circle. It's just the role of the ground.

After all, there were five big men in her family, and it would be crazy for that little hairy thief to be so blind to her house.

But her yard is really big enough. There is a big persimmon tree on the left, and a vegetable garden with a third of the land on the right. The rest of the yard is also planted with vines and melons.

Not only that, her family has a private plot of nearly [-]% near the Daqing River.

Although her family "worked hard to open up the wasteland" by themselves, they are the only ones who know how many doorways there are and how many things have been given away.

After all, her family is a bit too much.

However, this is not only exceeded by their family. Every household in the village has this situation. After all, the rations that each family distributes every year are really not enough to eat. As long as these extra parts are not exaggerated, they are all turning a blind eye. One-eyed, very tacit understanding, no one would risk offending the entire village to report.

Like Bao Lin's house, the backyard has three or four points, not counting those who have planted things on the edges and corners, which is considered to be over the top.

But that one mu of private land is also the reason why Dongmei's family has always been in good condition. After all, not everyone can have one mu of land as a vegetable garden. If nothing else, if you only grow sweet potatoes, that one mu of land can be harvested at least every year. Thousands of pounds.

But there are indeed many brothers in her family, and they are all at the age where they can eat, no matter how much they eat, it is not enough!
This is also the reason why her second brother has not yet married in his twenties. This marriage is not a matter of asking people to come in. The bride price is still a small head, and the food is the problem. , then there are too many problems, you have to wait for the family to eat more and more before adding people!Anyway, when her daughter-in-law is always in demand, the big girls in the village are happy!
As soon as Paulin entered the yard, she saw Dongmei playing under the persimmon tree with her two nephews and nieces.

"Paulin, why are you here?" Wang Dongmei said with some surprise.

She was still surprised to see Paulin entering her house. After all, today's Ghost Festival, the village's custom is not very frequent.

"I'm coming to my grandma's house to worship my ancestors. It's not yet time, so I'll come to see you." Paulin walked over directly and slapped a butt on the stone pier that was closest to Dongmei and not adjacent to the two dolls. sat down.

"Oh, Shitou, Lingling, this is Aunt Paulin, hurry up, it's called Auntie." Wang Dongmei took the hands of her two nephews and nieces, pointed at Baolin, and asked them to call someone with a smile on her face.

"Auntie." Wang Ling heard Wang Dongmei's words and called someone obediently.

She is four years old now, and she can speak and walk very quickly. She usually follows Xu Feng because she does not go to work in the fields, so she can bring the dolls in the house. Of course, these two dolls They are all well-behaved and don't like to cry. Usually, when Xu Feng chats with people, he directly puts aside their sister and brother, and lets her sister take her brother to play by herself, which is very scribbled.

"Aah." Another small stone made an ah-ah-ah sound. He couldn't speak yet. Usually, he could only make a vague ah-ah sound at most, no more.

If you keep staring at him and try to teach him to speak, he will be unhappy, and will cry when he is anxious. Of course, he is usually very well-behaved and sensible. What he likes to do most is to play mud with his sister and watch his father catch him. The grasshopper bird that came back likes to eat the steamed egg made by Taidai the most.

"Sigh." After Paulin responded, she didn't speak, she just smiled and looked at their siblings. She really didn't know how to get along with the children, so she could only laugh.

Wang Dongmei also knew that her claws were numb when she touched the child, so she did not specifically ask Pauline to hug and get close to the child.

The two of them chatted a lot, all from the village, focusing on the current weather and the fields in the village, but they were just talking nonsense.

After half an hour, several of Dongmei's older brothers came back naked with buckets. The buckets were filled with river water and poured directly into the vegetable garden on the opposite side. Then they went out with buckets.

Baolin also said goodbye to Dongmei. Now that Paulin is eleven, if you don't pay attention, those very annoying long-tongued women in the village will be able to say whatever dirty words are coming out of their mouths. Those who don't have long eyes will come to you and say, although it's nothing, but it's not always blocked.

In the past, there was a woman with a big nose called Aunt Pan. She ran in front of her and asked her to be the daughter-in-law of her younger son, saying, "It's your luck to see you, if it's not for how much you have. Extent of cleverness", which is particularly irritating.

Pauline took a stone and opened a spoon for her, and then ran away. After that, the man came to the door and asked for an explanation, and he said something like "joking, teasing her". At that time, she laughed angrily, and finally her parents took it. The pole was kicked out.

After that, that bastard surnamed Pan spared no effort to molest her in Shanghe Village, Wang Baolin, to the point of madness, as if she would not stop trying to smear her reputation.

Then, within half a year, her family experienced the destruction of the vegetable garden one after another, the door and walls of the house full of unknown feces, and the whole house stinks. Aunt Pan finally calmed down and turned to acting secretly. These Paulines can't control them, as long as they don't make trouble in front of her and disgust her.

As soon as she got out of Dongmei's house, Paulin didn't want to go back to the old house. If she met her milk, it would be really embarrassing, so she just went home directly.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she got home, she found that the door of the house was open. It seemed that her parents came back before her.

"Mom and Dad." Seeing that there was no one in the main room, Pauline went straight to the back room. Sure enough, the two of them were pulling weeds from the sweet potato field, and by the way, they turned the sweet potato vines over.

This is to prevent the sweet potato vines from staying in one place for a long time, and directly growing whiskers and rooting in that place, because sweet potato vines do not need seeds, and only need a section of cane to grow sweet potatoes.

Those who did not turn over the sweet potato canes diligently, causing the rhizomes to take root and grow small sweet potatoes, the sweet potatoes of the taproots buried in the ground will be very small, not only not sweet, but also not good in taste, and more importantly, it will affect the sweet potatoes. output.
