Chapter 53

And he doesn't talk much, except for work, he still works. After finishing the work in the field every day, he sits in the yard at dawn, chops bamboo slices, weaves bamboo baskets, and bamboo flats. Change money in town.But because most of the rural men know how to weave bamboo ware, the price of the things he sells is very low, and he can barely exchange for some oil and salt.

Grandma Wang sat behind the stove, sighed again, struck the firewood with an iron fork, glanced at her son sitting in the yard, and thought of Muxiang again.In her opinion, the two are a good match, and her family Wang Xi is not ugly. He is so big and has good features. Although he is a bit bored, he is honest. Not on it?

The more she thought about it, the more she couldn't figure it out. After hesitating, she said to Wang Xi: "Son, don't you want to take Mu Xiang up the mountain tomorrow? Or, if you get the chance, go ask Mu Xiang and try her method." Meaning, mother wanted to ask today, but she swallowed the words when she was on the verge of speaking, you go to ask, it is more appropriate than me to ask, we can't always be so vague, if Mu Xiang is not interested in you, mother will go again Ask a matchmaker to marry you, at worst, let's borrow money, no matter what, the daughter-in-law must marry!"

Wang Xi was chopping bamboo, he paused, his eyes dimmed, "How can I ask!" He couldn't ask, and he didn't know what to say.If he said anything else, he would go on strike, for fear that when he faced Mu Xiang, he wouldn't be able to utter a single word.

Grandma Wang hated his virtue, put the iron fork down heavily, and said fiercely, "What can't you say, mother didn't tell you to ask directly, you won't use your brain, find someone Is it an excuse to ask? You really have grown so big!"

Wang Xi still shook his head, he just refused to ask, he was also afraid, he was afraid that Mu Xiang would hear it, and he didn't like him, it would be so embarrassing for the two to meet in the future.Seeing that the old lady was very angry, he had no choice but to comfort her in another direction, "Mother, Mu Xiang is still young, she still has Caiyun and Mu Lang, and Li Dashan doesn't care about them, Mu Xiang must take care of them before they grow up." , Mu Xiang will definitely not agree to marry!" Although it is comforting words, it is also true that Mu Xiang will not marry for at least five years.

"Oh, my mother is also worried about this. Marrying Mu Xiang means that you will have three more mouths at once, which will exhaust you to death." Grandma Wang couldn't have thought of this, but...

Wang Xi couldn't hear his old lady's dissatisfaction with Mu Xiang, so he was eager to help Mu Xiang, "No way, didn't you see that Mu Xiang has changed now? She has become so capable. I heard that she sold a cookbook and made a lot of money. Qian, in the past few days, she has dried a lot of chrysanthemum tea and sold them to Fushoulou. Now she is more and more good at doing business, and the land that Li Dashan gave her is also tidy. If this continues, her family will soon be rich. Get up!"

Grandma Wang glared at him, "You, when you mention Mu Xiang, you can't finish talking, but when you come to her, you can't let out a fart. Yes, Mu Xiang is capable, but no matter how capable she is, she is still a girl , just like that, Caiyun and Mulang are still her burden, unless they grow up, alas, it's too early, she can wait, but you can't wait, if you don't want to ask, then I have to have the cheek to ask, no matter what How about it, by the end of next year at the latest, you must get married, and if you don't get married, mother will have to worry about going blind!"

well!This time it was Wang Xi's turn to sigh.Why doesn't he want to marry a wife, but when he sees Liu Erdan's mother, who is savage and unreasonable, he would rather wait forever than just find a wife to marry casually. Like Shi, can we live in the future?

"Cough cough!"

The sound of the old man coughing could be heard in the room, and each cough sounded as if he wanted to cough up his lungs.

Grandma Wang heard her wife coughing, stood up, poured a bowl of water and sent it to the back room.Her house is better than that of Mu Xiang and the others.There are three rooms in the big house, the main room in the middle, and the back room for sleeping on both sides. Wang Xi lives in one room alone, and Grandma Wang naturally stays with her wife.

In fact, her house is very shabby compared to other houses in the village. It's no wonder that the decades-old house is good.

The West Room was not lit, and it was still dark outside, but inside the house, it was already so dark that it was almost impossible to see the road.

Relying on years of memory, Grandma Wang groped in the dark and handed over the water, "Old man, drink up the water."

"Don't drink it, it's still the same after drinking it," Father Wang said bluntly, faintly, and a little impatient.

Grandma Wang didn't say anything, because the light was dim, so she couldn't see her face clearly. If she could see her face clearly, she would be able to guess what she was thinking at the moment, but she was actually a little impatient.

Father Wang coughed for a while, and finally calmed down, "Huh, I heard what you said, don't you just think I'm a burden? I stopped the medicine tomorrow, don't buy medicine anymore, I If you can't last the New Year, go bury the loess, and then you two will be lighter, and you don't have to be bored with my old bones anymore!"

Grandma Wang felt aggrieved in her heart, but when she saw the old man complaining about her, she couldn't help wiping away her tears, and said, "When did our mother and I bother you? Aren't I worried about Xizi? Boys and children the same age as him can I ran away, but our Xizi is still a bachelor, can I not be in a hurry?"

When Father Wang was young, he had a bad temper. He fell ill, and after lying on the kang for so many years, he felt aggrieved and his temper became even worse.Seeing his wife crying, he was so angry that he threw the bowl with his hand, "Crying, crying, what's the use of crying, if you hate me, bring me a rope, I'll hang myself, and I'll suffer even if I live , just die!"

Wang Xi rushed in, a little angry, and when he got angry, his voice became louder, "What's the trouble, since when did my mother and I dislike you, if you continue to make trouble like this, you will be in a state of restlessness, and you will not be able to survive the trouble?"

Grandma Wang hugged Wang Xi, cried and begged, "Xizi, don't be stubborn with your father, your father is suffering too, let's go, let's go outside, be obedient!"

After Wang Xi yelled, he felt a little regretful, and followed his mother's movement of pushing him, and moved to the main room.

Father Wang was stunned by the scolding at first, but when he came back to his senses, he naturally yelled endlessly, scolding all kinds of ugly words.People say that chronic illness makes people crazy, which is true.

Grandma Wang was afraid that Wang Xi would quarrel with his father again, so she dragged her all the way to the kitchen.The two girls sat in the small kitchen, looking at each other and sighing.No way, it's all fate!How else could it be?

Liu Erdan is at home now, and it's not easy. She was punished by Liu to stand in the yard, using family law!
Mrs. Liu held a feather duster in one hand, pinched her waist with the other hand, and walked back and forth in front of Erdan Liu, her face was contorted with anger.Just now, she found out about Liu Erdan's whereabouts in the afternoon. It was the youngest Liu Xiaomao who informed him. He was a year younger than Mu Lang, and he saw Liu Erdan went to Mu's house in the afternoon.
