Hard times have room

Chapter 639
Thinking of this, Su Hongying stretched out her hand and patted Baolin's head twice: "I don't do the right thing every day, but this kind of thing is very thoughtful. When a stranger comes, I feel that this person has bad intentions, and our family is poor. , If this person really aimed at our family, how lame his eyes would be."

The poverty of her family was deeply imprinted in Su Hongying's mind. She always felt that there was nothing in her family that could attract people's attention.

"Oh, Mom, there are still pumpkins in our yard. This thing is yellow and bright. It looks so tempting. If anyone can't resist the temptation, our pumpkins will suffer."

"You don't even look at our yard. Who can stop me? A few people come here at night, and I'm sure they can shave our pumpkins bald silently!"

No way, her mother didn't really believe what she said, so Pauline could only take things seriously, hoping to get her parents' attention.

Hearing Pauline say this, Su Hongying felt a little panic in her heart. As long as she thought that her family's hard work taking care of such a big pumpkin might end up being cheaper for others, she felt her heart was bleeding.

This year's pumpkins, she can say that she has devoted herself to watering and catching insects and loosening the soil, and it is finally time to harvest. This is a crooked idea. There is nothing more disgusting than this.

"Then what should we do? If we don't have the pumpkins in our house, we will pick them now and take them to our house, so that no one can steal them." Su Hongying, panicked, said that this was a reluctant solution.

Now, although the yellow and green pumpkin is mature, it is not as durable as the fully yellow pumpkin. In rural areas, this is really important.

Now, there are no various storage means of later generations.

"Don't panic. The things that Pauline said that may happen are all her own thoughts. How can you get to this point, don't scare yourself."

"Besides, the eyes of this pumpkin are going to be completely yellow. It's a pity to pick it now. It won't be long."

"If you're really worried, it's a big deal that I won't sleep at night, so I'll guard these pumpkins. I don't believe they can still fly." Wang Jiandang patted his thin chest and made his promise.

Of course, he is not only a promise, but also the head of the family, a man's responsibility.

After hearing Wang Jiandang's words, Su Hongying, who was still panicking, suddenly felt that the stone in her heart had fallen to the ground, and then she patted Baolin on the shoulder with her backhand: "You stinky girl, what's wrong? I'm here to scare your mother, after listening to your words, I thought some thugs came to steal our pumpkin tonight!"

After finishing speaking, she turned her head to look at Wang Jiandang: "This is all Pauline's imagination. People come to the door to ask for saliva, and she thinks they are trying to make pumpkins in the courtyard."

"It's okay, maybe she's too sensitive, and it's not like no one else came to our house to ask for water before, isn't it all good to come here!"

Pauline didn't give up and wanted to say something: "But, Mom, it's really different this time."

In the end, all the words were swallowed by Pauline, because she saw the "death stare" from her mother and confirmed her eyes. If she continued to speak, it was the rhythm of being beaten, so she was very interesting. closed his mouth.

So, the cowardly Pauline obediently went to the kitchen to cook. If she didn't go, she might really be beaten.

After lunch, it was too hot, and the couple, who were a little tired from carrying water before, went back to the house to take a nap according to their habit.

Paulin sat alone in her main room, still thinking about what happened before, she couldn't think of a reason for her, and finally, she entered her own room in a dull way and took a lunch break.

The sun outside is very bright now. After going out for a long time, you will feel a slight burning sensation on the skin exposed to the sun. From [-]:[-] pm to [-]:[-] pm, it is the hottest time of the day. Who can stay under this big sun for an hour, of course, the kind of fainting from heat stroke does not count.

No, as soon as you go out and walk outside, you can feel the heat wave coming from the pavement. After a few minutes, you should be sweating profusely and consciously hide in the shade.

Here, Paulin and his family of three were all on a lunch break, but the Li family caused a stir because of Li Gen's arrival again.

Of course, it was mainly Xu Xiuying. She was very dissatisfied with Li Qiang's friend, Li Gen, who had left and returned. When Li Gen entered Li's house, she just asked lukewarmly, "Yo, what else is there? what's the matter?"

"It's nothing." After Li Gen said this, he ignored the woman with the twisted face behind him, and went straight to Li Qiang's house, which is the firewood house of the Li family.

Li Qiang has lived in this house for more than two months. When Li Gen came to Li's house for the first time and saw Li Qiang lying in the small dark room in the woodshed, he felt unbelievable. I know that Li Qiang's life at home has been so miserable.

Li Qiang was also very confused about Li Gen's arrival, but then he was full of embarrassment and discomfort. No man wants to let others know that his status at home is low. What's more, he can't lower his daughter-in-law and let her be on his own. In his opinion, it was a very humiliating thing, but this person came suddenly and didn't give him any time to prepare.

After the two talked for a while, Li Gen brought Niu Datou's words to him and told Li Qiang the time and place of the next meeting. After that, the two had nothing to talk about, and they both felt a little bit speechless. Embarrassing, because the two are not very clean.

Just when the two of them didn't know what to say, Xu Xiuying came in and didn't say anything to Li Gen. Li Qiang was also picked on by her, pointing to the nose for a long time and scolding, from her thin lips. If you spit it out, it's nasty.

Obviously, she is not only looking for Li Qiang's fault, but also disposing of Li Gen, showing her status in the Li family.

In fact, after Li Gen and Li Qiang entered the house, she quietly walked to the window of the firewood house and listened to the corner of the wall, but unfortunately, she didn't hear anything useful.

That's right, she originally thought that this person was here to bring news of his concubine to Li Qiang. Apart from this, she really couldn't think of any other reason.

But I didn't expect that the two of them didn't say this at all, the kind that they didn't mention at all.

Not being able to hear what she wanted to hear, Xu Xiuying simply pushed the door and walked in. The sound was loud, and the two people inside were startled, especially Li Qiang, who got goosebumps, obviously not lightly frightened.
