Pick up a daughter-in-law to farm

Chapter 587 Collecting bamboo shoots, Mrs. Zhang is angry

Letting go of his mind, Zhuang Daniu was full of fighting spirit again.

Fearing that the weather would be bad before the new year, Zhuang Daniu and Chen Erlang went to the front mountain to hunt and collect firewood.

Sang Yue went to help Aunt Zhang and Aunt Zhuang cut bamboo shoot shells when she had nothing to do, and started talking: "The laba pig was not killed, so I asked Chen Fangsheng to help. Forget it, Xiaonian's family kills pigs, and everyone goes to my house to have a good time." Year."

Aunt Zhuang said with a smile: "That's impossible, how many people will it take? Your room will be overcrowded."

Aunt Zhang immediately said: "My family kills pigs in the morning, cooks two tables of pig-killing rice at noon, and invites some uncles to come. In the evening, there are only three tables of people on my own. Although my house is a bit broken, but this little person can do it." If you can stand up, it’s settled like that, no one will be missing. Chunliu, you mother and son have to come too.”

Second Aunt Zhuang looked up at Aunt Zhang: "Sister-in-law, isn't this appropriate?"

Aunt Zhang rolled her eyes: "We are not suitable? If you think my family is poor and afraid of not having anything to eat, then don't come here. That’s all about it.”

Aunt Zhuang understood Aunt Zhang, so she immediately answered, "Okay, then it's settled, Xiangzhi and I will come and help you."

Sang Yue answered, "Da Hua and Dani will also go to help at that time, so as to save you from working too hard."

Aunt Zhang said happily after hearing the words: "That's good, but Sang Yue, you have to take two days to help me grow a pot of bean sprouts, and your hair is better than mine."

Sang Yue immediately agreed: "Okay, if you want to lose a few catties, I will do it."

A group of people made an agreement on celebrating the New Year, and Aunt Zhuang also said: "Then my family's New Year pigs will be killed on the 29th, and then the normal people and horses will cross the river together."

Not to mention raising pigs, Sang Yue didn't even raise a chicken.

When I first came here, I was undecided, but I couldn't raise it any longer, so I decided not to raise it.

But she said with a smile: "In the past two days anyway, Da Niu and the others have been walking around the front mountain every day. They can't beat the big guys. They will always gain something by digging two rabbit holes and catching a few pheasant nests. At that time, they will add two vegetables to each family." .”

Aunt Zhang was happy: "That's okay, this way the dishes will be more abundant. This year's snow is big, and this year will also be richer."

The group of people had never felt such a good day, and their hearts became more and more happy as they talked. At this moment, the person who delivered the bamboo shoots came, and everyone stopped talking and greeted everyone.

There are two ways to harvest winter bamboo shoots this time, one is to harvest with skin, and the other is to harvest half-baked bamboo shoots.

The former is dug from the mountain and washed with mud and weighed directly, while the latter has to be shelled and boiled before being sent.

Most of the bachelors will send fur goods, while those with elderly and children at home will naturally send high-quality goods.

It will be already afternoon, and Zhuang Daniu who went up the mountain has also returned, because the villagers pick bamboo shoots to deliver at this time every day.

Seeing that Sang Yue was not at home, she immediately came to Zhang's house.

Seeing that there were so many people, Zhuang Daniu immediately raised his hands, and he naturally became a porter with his strength.

The two tigers and Zhu Hanming did the weighing, and the pickers and stackers were the big tigers and the three tigers. Zhuang Daniu's speed was much faster when he came, and the three tigers also went to help with the weighing.

Aunt Zhang who suddenly got up to help had a gloomy expression on her face: "Don't weigh yourself over there, come here and help us peel off the bamboo shoots."

Zhang Erhu followed behind Aunt Zhang like a little daughter-in-law. Hearing what Aunt Zhang said, he hurried to the corner of the room, picked up Chai Li and scratched the bamboo shoots.

Sang Yue didn't know what happened, so she quietly asked Aunt Zhang: "What's wrong, Brother Erhu made you angry?"

There are so many people in the courtyard, Aunt Zhang can't say much, but her tone is full of anger: "This is a worthless thing. I taught him so much in vain, but he is still so worthless!"

Sang Yue quietly saw that Zhang Erhu was blushing and lowered his head almost to the ground, so she didn't ask any more questions.

Seeing that everyone was looking at Zhang Erhu, Aunt Zhuang immediately patted Aunt Zhang's hand: "Okay, okay, look at your quick temper, and you just swear at people, how bad is that? You see that Erhu is a big boy, can you Don't keep calling him like a child."

If she hadn't had to save face for her son, how could Mrs. Zhang let her worthless son go like this.

It's just people coming and going, she finally said nothing with a sullen face.

Li Guihua brought big flowers, and Dani was cutting bamboo shoots. Seeing Aunt Zhang's unhappy face, even if she was curious, she stopped talking to each other.

Sang Yue had doubts in her heart and naturally wanted to know what happened. Zhuang Daniu didn't mention it until that night: "Actually, the two tiger brothers... well, how should I put it? This matter was caused by the sister in the lobby. Everyone is digging winter bamboo shoots these days." , Uncle Grandpa’s house also went... Brother Erhu is confused..."

Through Zhuang Daniu's narration, Sangyue finally knew the cause and effect: Zhuang Lixiang came to sell bamboo shoots and insisted on Zhang Erhu's weighing, and then thirty catties of bamboo shoots were counted as sixty catties of bamboo shoots. Zhang Sanhu who came to help knew about this, and he told Aunt Zhang.

In fact, this was not the case again. According to Zhang Sanhu, he felt that something was wrong with his second brother two days ago, and he discovered it after paying special attention today.

The extra money was not used in the public account, it is said that Zhang Erhu quietly paid it.

Today, when Aunt Zhang found out about this, she was so angry that she almost beat Zhang Erhu in the yard. She just thought that he was an adult, so she held back her anger and called him over to help peel the bamboo shoots.

Sang Yue's face twitched when she heard the words: "Do you think Zhuang Lixiang is interested in Zhang Erhu? I know Zhang Erhu likes her very much."

Zhuang Daniu answered her sullenly: "Li Xiangmei, she won't look down on Erhu. She is the wife of an eminent monk, how can she marry in this village and become a native woman? Uncle's house, I look forward to it every day. She's a wife."

Sang Yue naturally knew about this so-called wife's life, she pouted her mouth and said disapprovingly: "It's really shameless, a big girl who doesn't like her but goes to seduce him, she's not usually thick-skinned! And these two tigers It's really worthless. When did Zhuang Lixiang look at him without his eyes turned to the sky? He is good, and other people's smiles are attracted to lose their souls! Huh, men, all they look at are women's cheeks, just Zhuang Lixiang's Character, whoever marries her will be unlucky!"

Zhuang Daniu also knew that his cousin was not a good person, but even if Zhang Erhu fell in love with her, there was nothing he could do.

"Actually, I've persuaded Erhu many times, but he clearly promised that he would stop thinking about it. But as soon as he sees her, he loses his mind."

This is called true love, right?
Otherwise how could you be so fascinated?
But Sang Yue felt that Zhang Erhu was too lacking in ambition. Last time in this courtyard, Zhuang Lixiang called him worthless, and said that he wanted to eat swan meat because of the toad.

Alas, why is he so useless?

"Since I persuaded him not to listen, forget it. The more someone obstructs this kind of emotional matter, the more he will rebel. Only when he sees the truth clearly, maybe he will regret it."
