Rebirth of the pastoral landlady

Chapter 226 Who dropped the suspect?
"Miss, it's hard for you to defend this old slave like this, and not hesitate to have a grudge against the second master..." Dong Ma looked at Jin Xi, and muttered, her eyes were a little red.

Jin Xi was slightly stunned, and then suddenly realized what Mama Dong was pointing at, and said, "Mama Dong, don't say anything out of the ordinary, your family is loyal to us, we should treat you like family members, and we should protect you!"

Dong Ma nodded gratefully, looked at Jiaxiang behind her, and said worriedly: "I'm afraid that the second master will hate you today, Miss..."

Jin Xi smiled faintly, and said disapprovingly: "When did he say good things about me again? If you hate me, you can hate me. I only do what I think I should do, and I'm not afraid of being hated. Let's go, let's get rid of this chicken." That's it, save trouble."

Mama Dong nodded, and the two of them turned a corner at the entrance of Qingshi Alley in front, and headed towards the willow forest behind the village.

On the old Liang's side, Liang Yulin dragged the aggrieved Mrs. Yang back to the kitchen of their second room. In the dark kitchen, the water in the small pot was bubbling happily.

When Yang entered the door, she sat down on the stove door, cursing Jinxi and Dong Ma non-stop, and then scolding Liang Yulin for being useless and incompetent, all the fat chickens in her mouth flew away, making her busy for a long time, plucking chicken feathers Almost broke my nails.

"Lan Erniang, stop complaining and wait for me to give you something like that!" Liang Yulin grinned and pretended to be mysterious, and said.

Surprised, Yang looked at Liang Yulin running to the tableware cupboard on one side, pouted, and took out two eating bowls from the bottom floor.

Yang Shi got up from the stove door, took two bowls and took a look, couldn't help laughing through tears.

"Father Lan'er, I have yours, and I still have a plan!" Yang said happily, one bowl was filled with a bowl of sticky chicken blood, and the other bowl was filled with half a bowl of eggs. The kind of shellless eggs pulled out of chicken viscera, the big ones are as big as pigeon eggs, and the small ones are as big as quivering peanuts, and they are connected together like a bunch of mare's milk raisins. They are golden and very attractive.

"It's true that you plucked the feathers of this chicken, but I wiped the neck of this chicken. My good boy, such a fat and big hen, the belly is full of eggs. If it doesn't get sick, let's keep it." No, Bo boy can drink egg flower every day! It's a pity..." Liang Yulin said regretfully, smacking the corner of his mouth.

"That's right!" Mrs. Yang agreed, and told Liang Yulin in a loud voice: "Hurry up and get some firewood for me at the stove. I also drank two cups. The string of eggs was braised in soy sauce for Boy Bai, and that boy is so tall now that he can't eat enough!"

Liang Yulin gestured to Yang, 'Shh! ' With a cry, his eyes widened, and he lowered his voice and told Yang Shi: "You mother-in-law with a loud voice, why are you yelling? Huihuiniang and Mei'er heard it, that's terrible!"

Yang immediately covered her mouth and said nothing more.Liang Yulin patted Yang's butt, smiled, and sat upright at the door of the stove to add firewood. Yang didn't delay, and sprinkled a few grains of salt into the chicken blood. While waiting for the chicken blood to freeze, Scoop away the water in the small pot and start chopping peppers, ginger and garlic.

In the dim kitchen room, the couple tiptoed to serve the meals, handling the pots and pans with care.

Outside, the spring is beautiful, the sun is shining, the sky is cloudless, the birds are singing in the treetops, and the swallows are building their nests.In the paddy fields or dry land in the distance, the villagers are busy, farming for a year's livelihood. The cows graze on the ridges of the fields, flick their tails from time to time, and let out a few long moos with their heads raised...

……

Jin Xi accompanied Dong Ma to the willow grove behind the village, and threw the plague chicken into the small cliff behind the grove with her own hands.Jin Xi heard that Mrs. Sun had reclaimed a piece of land at the foot of the shady mountain on the west side of the forest, and planned to use it for peanuts and mung beans in a while.

Jin Xi has never had the chance to come here, and today happened to come over to throw chickens, so she asked Mama Dong to take her over to see the fruits of her mother's labor.

Mama Dong also wanted to go there to have a look, and she had put a lot of effort into that wasteland, so she happily led the way.The two of them crossed the willow forest and turned towards the west mountain. After walking for about half a bowl of tea, they came to the slope at the foot of the west mountain.Because it is relatively shady here, the light is much dimmer than that of the willow forest. On the treetops in the mountain, faint wisps of mist, like white smoke, linger.

However, the trees in the mountains are growing well, lush and lush, and there are many shade-loving and tide-loving plants growing in the roadside grass.

This place is so remote, my mother opened up the land here, and came here to farm, isn't it too deserted?Jin Xi secretly thought, continue walking forward, glanced around, and found the wasteland on the side of the road, big and small, high and low, there are no less than seven or eight yuan, come to think of it, there are so many villagers who come here to open up wasteland There are several, and Jin Xi's worried heart calms down a little.

Dong Ma pointed to a piece of land that had been repaired on the sloping land in front, about seven or eight percent in size, and said excitedly to Jin Xi: "Miss, it is the one in front, the one in the shape of a dustpan is our family's land. The one above the shuttle The shaped one belongs to Chunzhu's family, and the smaller one on the right belongs to Daniel's family!"

Jin Xi nodded, and felt more at ease when she heard that Chunzhu and Daniu's family were all here to open up wasteland.She slightly lifted the corners of her sky-green skirt, stepped into the open land, stepped on the ground a few steps, her feet were soft, she knelt down and twisted some sandy soil in her hands to look at it.

Well, it is undoubtedly the best choice to grow peanuts, mung beans, or sweet potatoes on such a sloping soil.

The two stood on the ridge and talked for a while, then turned around and walked down the mountain, Jin Xi went ahead, Dong Ma followed, and after a while they turned back to the willow forest. In Jinjishan Village outside the forest, there is another path leading to the kiln.

Because that path leads to the kiln, and the kiln is an unknown place in the eyes of the villagers, and they usually don't go there. Avoid that piece.

So, over the years, the path was covered with thorns and deserted.

Jin Xi walked cautiously in front, Dong Ma followed behind, the two chatted casually while walking, Dong Ma was teaching Jin Xi how to order peanuts and mung beans, Jin Xi listened carefully, nodding from time to time to ask the two In a word, Mama Dong became more and more satisfied, wishing to pass on what she knew, everything she knew, and everything she knew.

As soon as I was concentrating on this, I was distracted from my feet. When I passed the fork, Dong Ma behind me suddenly said, "Ouch! ' With a scream, he fell to the ground with a plop.

"Dong Ma, are you alright?" Jin Xi asked urgently, turned around and turned back towards Dong Ma.

"It's okay, just slipped!" Dong Ma said with a blushing face.

Jin Xi helped Dong Ma back up, glanced at the piece of cloth caught on the thorns in the grass beside her, and couldn't help being stunned.Let go of Dong Ma's hand, walked a few steps forward, bent over to take off the piece of cloth, glanced at the incomplete half azalea on it, a trace of suspicion flashed in his eyes.

I also looked at the grass and thorns nearby, and the path leading to the willow forest in the depths of the forest seemed to have been stepped on recently.

"Miss, what are you looking at?" Mama Dong patted the dirt off her trouser legs, turned her head and saw Jin Xi staring into the depths of the willow forest, and asked in surprise.

Jin Xi withdrew her gaze and said, "It's okay, let's go back!" When she turned around, she casually tucked the piece of cloth under her sleeve, thinking about one thing over and over in her mind along the way, the two of them had nothing to do along the way. The words went back to the village.

When they got home, Jianshi was already preparing lunch in the kitchen, Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Sun were holding their third and fourth children in the inner courtyard to bask in the sun, while Jinrou, Wenyun and Wen'an were skipping rope and playing beside them.

Jin Xi explained to Sun Shina, then turned around and went to the Zhaobi in front to look for peach branches.

The sun had already risen to the top of the head, and the peach branch was drying the pair of trousers that the third child had just changed. Jinxi walked over, pulled the peach branch to the small flower bed behind the bamboo, and took out the torn piece of cloth from the bottom of the sleeve. Give the peach branch.

"Biao Aunt, I see half of the rhododendrons on it, it looks like your needlework, can you see if it is?" Jin Xi sat down by the flower bed and said.

Taozhi took the small piece of cloth, glanced at it, then nodded and said: "I embroidered half of the rhododendron, Xi'er, where did you get this half, or did you tear it apart?"

"Biao Aunt, have you looked carefully, it is indeed from your hands?" Jin Xi asked again.

Seeing Jin Xi like this, Tao Zhi was a little surprised, didn't dare to be sloppy, put it back in front of her eyes, looked at the front and back carefully, nodded with certainty: "Yes, this is indeed embroidered by me, the colored thread and The knotted threads are the ones I always use, which are a little different from your mother and Aunt Yuxia's routine!"

Jin Xi nodded, and then asked: "Biao Aunt, then look at this cloth and half azalea flower on it, do you remember who it was recently embroidered for?"

Liang Yuzhong's shoes, socks and clothes are all handled by Mrs. Sun.As for Mrs. Sun, sisters Jinxi and Jinrou, as well as the needlework for the clothing and supplies of the third and fourth child, Taozhi is now in charge of it.

As Mrs. Sun is getting older, whether it is wiping her forehead or the pattern on her handkerchief, the peach branches are decorated with patterns such as pine cranes, green pine, and blessings, which imply health and longevity.

Jin Rou likes hibiscus, Jin Xi prefers emerald green bamboo, the clothes, hats, shoes and socks of the third and fourth children all use cute animal patterns.

But for Liang Lisheng to accept shoes, there is no pattern.Men work in the fields, so they should be resistant to dirt and wear.

After such speculations, Jin Xi couldn't help but have a picture of someone in her heart!

Could it be her?Jin Xi was shocked!
Tao Zhi sat down next to Jin Xi, tilted her head and thought about it seriously, and suddenly said: "I remembered, it's your Aunt Meier, yes, it's her, and this azalea is the one she begged for a few days ago. Look at what I embroidered for her!"
