Girlfriend's Fortune

Chapter 7 Chapter [-]

In their Songshan Mountain, because there is a famous Songshan Temple on the main peak, there are many people, and it is not a deep mountain or forest, so there are no ferocious beasts and wolves.

Occasionally, there were pheasants and hares jumping around, and they were soon hunted by the village's Wang Orion and his son up the mountain.

So when walking in the mountains, you can rest assured that you don't have to be afraid of wild animals jumping out to scare you.

When they reached a nearby mountain, the two separated for a while and began to search for the mushrooms.

This is the case with picking mushrooms, each depends on its own, just pick it up.

The sun was basking overhead, but fortunately there were some trees to cover him from the heat, so Song Qiu lay on his body, pawing under this tree and looking down that slope, without feeling the passage of time.

When her waist was tired, she straightened up and looked, the basket was already half full. She was going to take a rest, and when she turned her head, there was a mulberry tree on the slope ahead, with many red and purple mulberries hanging on it, and she grinned smiled.

As she walked there, she looked around for Zhang Lihua's figure, and saw that she was still lying in the lower area, and called her: "Pear Blossom! Come up and rest for a while!"

Zhang Lihua listened to the yelling and answered it. When she saw Song Qiu, she rushed up a few steps.

"This is the mulberry tree we ate last year, isn't it? This year it is better than last year." Zhang Lihua put down the basket and sat under the mulberry tree with Song Qiu. Under the shade, they could pick mulberries with their hands.

Rural children, whatever fruits they pick are eaten directly, and those who are particular about washing are less likely to eat.

Song Qiu was also like this when he was a child in his previous life. The ancient village is even more natural and has no pesticides, so he is not afraid.

Two people, you pick one and I pick the other, and soon your mouth will be full of red and purple, and even your hands will be stained a lot.

After eating enough, the two put on their baskets and went down the mountain while picking up mushrooms at the other end.

So when we reached the foot of the mountain, the back basket was almost full.

When he got home, Mrs. Yuan had already cleaned the basket of mushrooms that Song Qiu picked up in the morning, and was washing clothes in the small river ditch in front of the door.

This small ditch is a tributary of the long river outside the village, and the water is fairly clear, so it's fine for washing clothes, but not vegetables.

Several women in the village were washing their clothes here, and when they saw Song Qiu and Zhang Lihua coming down the mountain together with their baskets full of mushrooms, they couldn't help boasting.

"It's Qiu girl and Lihua who are diligent, my Huzi, who can't get back a basket after running up the mountain for a few days, and only cares about digging out the bird's nest to pick fruit for fun!"

This person is Wang Orion's daughter-in-law Guixiang. They have three sons, and the two older ones hunt with Wang Orion. After a year, the father and son can earn a lot of money.

Therefore, the life of the Wang family is easy in the village, and they are not short of the money for selling mushrooms.

Everyone knows that old Yuan smiled when she heard her say that, "Why dig out the bird's nest? People and tigers have brought back bird's eggs for you! How capable you are, you are blessed, Three sons can do it!"

As a mother, who doesn't like others to praise their baby?
At that moment, Guixiang laughed from ear to ear, and kept praising Song Qiulai.

Seeing that you praised me and I praised you, Song Qiu and Zhang Lihua exchanged glances, and hurriedly slipped into their yard.

After entering the yard, Song Qiu put down the basket by the pressurized well, went back to the house and brought out the big wooden basin and shaukei.

Just like yesterday, he and Zhang Lihua washed each other, and washed out the mountain fungus in the back basket.

The two baskets that Zhang Lihua picked up in the morning have already been cleaned, and it's not like she doesn't do all kinds of work.

Right now Zhang Lihua has washed the mountain fungus in the back basket, and then went out to hunt pigweed and came back to feed the pigs.

Song Qiu tidied up the place, put the washed mushrooms into the house, and put them together with those washed by Mr. Yuan in the morning.

As for the broken ones, wash them a few more times, boil water, put a few cloves of garlic in the pot, blanch the mushrooms, and spread them out in a Shau Kei to dry.

After doing this, she sat on the small stool on the eaves and took a rest, watching her grandma take the sewing basket and dismantle a pair of trousers that could not be patched anymore, and sew them into socks.

The old Mrs. Deng next door came in from the small door, walked around the vegetable garden and walked towards the middle path, "My younger brother and sister are doing needlework!"

Old Yuan hurriedly asked Song Qiu to move out a small stool, and let old Deng sit beside her, then she smiled and said, "I can't mend these trousers, I'll use them to make two pairs of socks."

Mrs. Deng nodded, flirting with Mrs. Yuan's acquaintances, and said: "Your family will serve wine in the future, why do you follow the ceremony? I'll ask you, so we can follow along."

Liu Caigui in the village will add a box of wine to his daughter in the future, and he has already invited every household in the village.

These days, when hosting a banquet, apart from relatives who must be present, everyone from the same village must also go.

"Tianxiang Liquor is this market, and it's still the same as before, with a ten-cent cash gift and two feet of red cloth." Old Yuan said.

Old Mrs. Deng listened, counted, and nodded, "That's all right, call me at the banquet the day after tomorrow."

Song Qiu sat on the side and listened quietly. Seeing old Mrs. Deng getting up and leaving, she approached her grandma and asked curiously, "Why does Grandma Deng like to ask you about everything?"

She remembered that Sun Datie's house in the village held a full moon wine last month, and Grandma Deng also came to ask about it.

But at that time, she was still waiting on the hospital bed, and she didn't make it to the table. This time, she can go to the table. The rule is that there are no more than two in a family, and there are just two in their family.

Listening to this, old Yuan could not help but smiled, and said to his granddaughter: "This is how human relations are. We are all from the same village. Naturally, there is a big difference in the etiquette. There is a way. Otherwise, whoever favors you will It doesn't look good if it's thin, our family has a good relationship with your grandpa Zhang's family, so your grandma Deng often comes to ask me."

Song Qiu let out an oh, expressing that he knew, but he couldn't help but think in his heart, the relationship between their family and the Zhang family is really good.

Otherwise, this family surrounded the courtyard and formed its own courtyard, and those who had nothing to do would not step into other courtyards, but the two of them could leave a door from the middle wall and share a well.

And she was sick, and she borrowed a hundred dollars from Grandma Deng to buy the medicine.

It's not a good relationship, who would be willing to lend it to you.

But she thought again, it seemed that in her memory, the 24 families in Songshan Village seemed to have a good relationship.

No matter how close they were, they never had any dirty words or quarrels.

What's more, if there is anything, you will help if you call. This village style is really good.

She thought that Grandma Deng was quite a good old lady who listened to her words so well, and it would be even better if she could treat Lihua and his room equally.

Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite, and she can't take care of this matter.

As the sky gradually darkened, old Yuan made two pairs of socks, put away the sewing basket, and took the basket with Song Qiu to pick some eggplants, peppers and courgettes in the vegetable garden.

It's rare to go to the town, so naturally you have to get more things to sell, no matter whether you sell them all or not, it's just a matter of memorizing them.
