Nongmen fierce wife, this king depends on you

Chapter 44
On the way home, I ran into the young grandpa and grandson again. It seems that the one tael of silver last time allowed them to live well. At least Xiaoxiao didn’t complain about being hungry. However, their broad beans still haven’t been sold. His wrinkles deepened a bit.

Xia Mujin was still the same as last time, gave him a tael of silver and moved the peas to the cart at home, and said: "Master, you will wait for me here at this time five days later, if you are lucky, I will You don’t need to go all the way to the town to sell broad beans if you buy them in large quantities.”

After finishing speaking, he smiled and touched Xiao Xiao who was looking up at her with innocent eyes.

"Girl..." The old man trembled and couldn't speak. It's been almost three years since they lived without a meal. The clothes are all worn by the child's parents before, changed and changed, sewn and sewed, and he took Xiao Xiao to go out early and return at night every day. Even if you are lucky enough to sell the broad beans, you won't see a few copper coins.

Now, this girl has rescued them from fire and water several times, besides, she is still a teenager, can he not feel it?
"Master, don't thank me first, if one day you really live a good life, let Xiao Xiao go to school and let him repay."

The country people are honest, Xia Mujin looked at the tears in the uncle's eyes, her nose was sore, she looked at Xiaoxiao with a smile, and then said.

In this day and age, reading is the most reliable thing, and the small eyes are bright for a moment, as if he is looking forward to something, the uncle is also unbelievably thinking about Xia Mujin's words, just about to say something, but sees their father and daughter Already pulling the cart and moving forward.

Because things went well, the sun had just set when we went back, and Song Zi was waiting for the fish on the bank with a bamboo net. Seeing his father and sister coming back, he was very happy, and kept moving the wooden barrel: "Sister, Look, I caught a lot of fish today, but they were smaller."

Looking at the lively fish in the bamboo bucket, Xia Mujin's eyes were crooked with a smile, and with a turn in her mind, a plan to get rich came out again.

She threw the branch in her hand onto the cart and said, "Father, you go back to the house to rest first, and I will wait with the pine nuts."

Xia Senlin responded, and told them not to go into the water, and pulled the cart back.

As soon as Xia Senlin entered the house, Xia Mujin lifted the bottom of her trousers and groped for the stones on the river bank to get into the water.

"Ah, sister, what are you doing, the water is deep, don't go."

When Xia Xiaosong saw it, he became anxious, ran over there in a few strides, grabbed Xia Mujin's arm with one hand, and shouted hastily.

Because the place where Xia Mujin entered the water was not the place where everyone washed clothes in the past, the water level was relatively deeper, but at this moment, it overflowed her thighs, one hand was grabbed by the pine nuts, and she squatted into the water, Her head was tilted to one side, and she had to tilt her neck slightly to prevent the water from entering her ears. After a while, she raised her other hand and shouted excitedly: "Songzi, your sister has found a treasure, hurry up!" Bring the barrel over here."

Seeing that she was slowly grabbing four or five snails in her hand, Songzi twitched the corners of her mouth. After a long time, she frowned and went to pick up the bucket. Before he got close, Xia Mujin threw the snails in her hand towards Songzi's feet , and said: "Pick them all in." After finishing speaking, he bent down again to touch the snails.

Seeing his sister so excited, Song Zi stopped talking, and looked at the bamboo net not far away, but saw that the active cover moved, and ran over to the bamboo pole.

"Wow, sister, there seems to be a big guy."

Carefully put the bamboo net back, leaned forward to take a look, saw fish belly white in the gap of the cover, and shouted excitedly.

Xia Mujin was concentrating on touching the snails at the moment, and didn't listen to the pine nuts at all. In just a moment, countless snails fell beside the bamboo barrel. According to visual inspection, it weighed five or six catties. Thinking that it is summer now, there are too many snails There was nowhere to put it at home, so Xia Mujin went ashore.

At this moment, Songzi also lifted the bamboo net up, and opened the active lid after approaching the wooden barrel: "Sister, it's really a big fish." After opening it, she cried out in surprise.

Xia Mujin had just landed, and was picking up snails along the road. When she saw the pine nuts talking excitedly, she threw the snails in her hand into the bucket. She stepped forward and saw a male fish about three kilograms twisting and struggling in the bamboo net. .

Xia Mujin smiled and gave Songzi a thumbs up: "My pine nuts are really amazing."

Pine nut was praised, so he touched the back of his head in embarrassment, and his face turned red.

Immediately, the two finished picking up the snails, and carried the wooden bucket to the house panting.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw a few people in the family staring at the pile of things Xia Mujin had bought, and when Xia Mujin came back, embarrassment flashed across his face.

"Jin'er, what's the matter, why is this body wet?"

The lights were not on in the house, and Xia Tieshu was the first to notice that Xia Mujin was drenched all over, so he asked worriedly, and stretched his neck to look out the door, thinking they were being bullied again.

"Brother, it's okay, it's so cool." Xia Mujin smiled heartily, waved her hands very chicly, and carried the wooden bucket into the house with Song Zi.

"Jin Jin'er, what are you doing touching these?" Xia Senlin couldn't use his hands, Xia Tieshu's legs couldn't use his strength, and Aunt Xia was pregnant and weak. When I carried it in, I kept frowning, thinking about what happened to the two siblings, I had to carry a bucket, but when I saw the contents of the bucket, Xia Senlin yelled out in the first tense .

It was the first time Xia Mujin saw her father lose his composure like this. For a while, she couldn't stand up straight from laughing. It wasn't until Song Zi pressed her elbow that she shrugged her shoulders and held back her laughter for a while.

Song Zi saw that her sister held back her laughter, but at this moment she was laughing so hard that she leaned forward and backward, watching the other three people's eyebrows twitch, and the frown deepened.

"Okay, pine nuts, clean these up, and I'll cook." After laughing enough, Xia Mujin pulled the pine nuts, gestured for the contents of the bucket with her eyes, and rolled up her sleeves to wash the rice.

"Jin'er, what's the matter with you these days, everything you do is mysterious, don't scare your mother!" The family knew that Xia Mujin's cooking was the best, so they didn't intervene. Xia Muzhen swiftly boiled the bamboo tube filled with rice in the pot, hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't help but ask in worry.

"Mother, I'm fine, don't worry, Jin'er just figured out some things and wants to create wealth with her own hands, and you are my strongest backing."

Xia Mujin wiped the fine sweat from her forehead, then put the dozens of small fish caught by Songzi in a broken basin, and answered while removing the internal organs.

Originally, I wanted to eat the big fish, but the weather was hot, and the small fish was left for a day or two. If I didn’t eat it, I’m afraid it would all die, and all the hard work on the pine nuts would be in vain.

Aunt Xia was stunned for a long time when she heard Xia Mujin say that she wanted to create wealth. There are only trees and fields in their mountains, and besides, there is nothing in their own home. How can they rely on to create wealth?
Xia Mujin saw through her mother's doubts with just one glance, and said, "Mother, at this time, as long as you think and create with your heart, even a drop of water can flow into a sea, and what we want is self-confidence and certainty." Opportunity, you see, in just a few days, our family has changed from eating bark to eating rice and fish, and this is the change."

Xia Mujin was annoyed while explaining, feeling like she had become the leader of a pyramid scheme in front of her mother, and was brainwashing her bit by bit, thinking about it, she couldn't help but shiver coldly.

"Oh, mother, you just listen to my sister, you are right, my sister is the most amazing person in the world."

Song Zi has finished that side right now, seeing my sister holding the small fish one by one in her hand, pinching the belly of the fish very accurately, using force cleverly, I saw a black fish intestine or something like a broken belly When he came out, he stepped forward, squatted in front of his sister, and flattered her while watching her work.

Xia Mujin raised her eyes and glanced at him, then jokingly said: "My pine nuts have the sweetest mouth. When I grow up, I will be able to find a capable daughter-in-law for my father and mother."

After finishing speaking, he felt that he had said the wrong thing, so he looked at Xia Tieshu who was silent at the side.

Xia Tieshu was still immersed in his own thoughts, when he suddenly heard the word looking for a wife, his black eyes dimmed, and he looked down at his legs, vaguely feeling a different gaze, then looked up, only to see eight All eyes were on him.

Xia Tieshu felt hairy all over his body. After a long time, he understood what they meant, so he laughed and said, "Look at me, it's a good thing for Songzi to find a good wife, so she can lighten my burden. It's not that my feet are bad, I'll find a capable daughter-in-law to honor my parents tomorrow."

A big boy blushed when he mentioned his wife.

He didn't go out to work these days, and he ate enough these days, he felt that the whole person was much fairer, and the more he looked the better.

The corner of Xia Mujin's mouth twitched, how could she not know what her brother was thinking, so she smiled and said: "Luohua is interested, Liushui is welcome, brother, don't worry, we will build a new house this year, and when the time comes, we will marry Sister Ermiao back Home."

"You stinky girl, you know how to watch brother jokes." Now, Xia Tieshu's face was as red as a monkey's butt.

"Hahaha……"

When they saw it, they all laughed tacitly. Xia Xiaosong was ignorant of all this, and only knew that his elder brother was going to marry Sister Er Miao as his wife. He was very happy, so he laughed too.

"Eat, eat, eat, eat you to death, haven't you seen the next door? You don't even treat my mother like a human being, you can still eat, why don't you choke to death?"

The family over there was happy and happy, but the Wu family had a weird atmosphere, the air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder. Father Xia came back twice a month, and each time he stayed for two days, he went to the town again. The two sons brought their children here to eat, no, Wu Shi didn't give him a good face when he came back, and before he swallowed the first mouthful of the meal, Wu Shi slapped the chopsticks on the table and pointed at him. He cursed.
