The peasant's daughter-in-law of crossing

Chapter 41

Qiu Laowu really meant what he said, and in the afternoon the deposit was delivered and the contract was written.

Bo Ming knew that his uncle and aunt's family were not rich, but they had lent him all their savings back then.Now that he has money, he hastened to return it to them, because he knows how hard it is for a large family to live without money.

Now I only owe my second uncle's family a thousand wen, and the few hundred wen I saved up is not enough to pay back, so I will pay it back after the soybeans are sold.Anyway, the second uncle's family is not short of money, his family ranks among the top three in Xuejia Village, not to mention the second uncle himself is not in a hurry.

At night, Yingniang sat in front of the lamp and looked at the contract carefully, unable to hide her excitement.The fact that the family made so much money at once really made her happy, but most of the reason why she was so happy was because Birming's first attempt to grow soybeans went so smoothly, and she was proud of him.

Bo Ming has been so obsessed with the work in the field recently that she almost forgot to sleep and eat. She was really afraid that he would fail and that he would not be able to bear it.

Birming sat beside her like a child, waiting for praise.Yingniang knew what he was waiting for, so naturally she wouldn't let him down, "My husband is amazing, he made a lot of money the first time he planted soybeans, and if there are people who gossip again in the future, I'll go up and slap him in the face Dare to say that my father-in-law relies on women, I am blind!"

Seeing that Yingniang really treated him like a child, Bo Ming couldn't help laughing. With her temperament, it was impossible to slap him in the face.But what he heard was very helpful, he moved the chair closer, leaned against Yingniang's body, blushed and said: "Then tell me, do you think it's a good thing to marry me?"

Seeing his appearance, Yingniang seemed to be acting like a spoiled child, she leaned up and kissed him on the cheek, "No loss, no loss, you are almost becoming a rich man now, so why should I lose, I have taken advantage of it !"

Bo Ming was coaxed so comfortably by her, and was about to come and kiss her back and forth, when he saw that she was still holding the contract in her hand, he suddenly asked: "Ms. Ying, don't you only know a few simple words? Look at you just now After so long, could it be that you understand it too?"

Ying Niang smiled and shook her head, "I don't quite understand, but I can recognize the words 'two thousand coins' and 'six coins' written here, as well as your name. How about you teach me how to read and write? How about it?" In fact, Yingniang still has a little idea, with Bo Ming teaching her these things, she doesn't need to pretend to know nothing in front of Steward Yin.She will go to Wuzhou in another [-] days, and if she reveals her ability to read and write in front of her followers, she will have a reason to explain it.

Bo Ming was very happy when he heard Yingniang said that he wanted to learn this, and said straightly: "Okay, okay!" He felt that he was not useless in front of Yingniang, so he quickly found a pen and paper, and ink, and first wrote down a family. person's name.

Yingniang saw that Boming still wrote official script, and couldn't help but admire: "Your handwriting is so beautiful, no wonder your master wants you to copy scriptures."

Boming felt a little proud again, seeing Yingniang looking at him with admiration, his sense of pride was unspeakable.He put the brush in Yingniang's hand, held her hand again, and said like a man: "Come on, I'll teach you how to write."

Ying Niang couldn't help laughing, his appearance was so cute.She obediently let Bo Ming hold her hand, and following his strength, wrote the names of the family.In order not to reveal her secrets, she deliberately wrote crookedly.

Bo Ming finally found confidence in front of Ying Niang, so he naturally wanted to show it off. He wrote three full pages, but he was still not satisfied.

Ying Niang was a little tired holding the brush, "Birming, I know all these things, let's rest early."

"It will be so soon? You can write it yourself, I see. If you can't write well, you won't be allowed to sleep." Bo Ming found the joy of being a teacher in front of her, and he really didn't want to let her go easily.

When Yingniang saw him like that, she kept her mouth tightly shut, because she was afraid that she would burst out laughing, so she just wrote, and let him see how she became a blockbuster.

Yingniang wrote down the words specified by Birming in a dignified manner.Bo Ming was speechless, and after a long while, he said, "Why did you learn so fast? Just now you wrote like chicken feet. In just a short while, you can write so beautifully, only one step behind me. little bit."

"Famous teachers make great apprentices. Besides, I'm a talented student, don't underestimate me." Yingniang smiled and put away the scrap paper and pen and ink.

Now it was Boming who looked at her adoringly, and just as she put away her belongings, she was about to get up when Boming stopped her and hugged her.

"You... what are you doing?" Yingniang was frightened by him.

"Didn't you say you were going to sleep?" Birming hugged her to the bed and said with a smirk.He also helped her take off her clothes without hesitation.

Yingniang was usually used to his gentle appearance, but now he suddenly became a little aggressive, a little domineering, which surprised her quite a bit.

This night was naturally turbulent and violent.Ying Niang is enough to welcome Bo Ming with a few streams of spring water.It seems that Birming's energy is infinite, and once his self-confidence is aroused, it will be out of control.

Yingniang couldn't help thinking in her heart, who said that she married a small man, and occasionally she has the demeanor of a big man.

When they woke up the next morning, the two looked at each other and couldn't help blushing.Yingniang looked at him shyly, suddenly saw a big red and swollen lump on his shoulder.

"What's the matter with your shoulder? Didn't you and Zhongping use a cart to pull corn? You haven't carried the load recently. You see, your side is full of light-colored marks from the past, but this side is red and swollen. That's it."

Bo Ming quickly put on his clothes and covered his shoulders, and said nonchalantly: "It's nothing, it's not that you said I forgot, I didn't feel any pain at all, I carried the big tree with Zhongping yesterday afternoon. "

"Why carry a big tree?" Yingniang was puzzled, "Where did you and Zhongping go to cut the tree?"

"I went to Nanshan to cut it. The soybeans have already set pods. In order not to cause any accidents, Zhongping and I plan to build a grass shed and live in the field to guard from tonight. It is close to the mountain, and wild boars come down from time to time. If they are stared at by wild boars If you do it, you can knock down a lot of land in one night." Birming said with some worry.

Yingniang was very worried when she heard this, "Since there are wild boars, wouldn't it be dangerous for you and Zhongping to sleep in the hut? Will the wild boars hurt people?"

"Don't worry, there are only small wild boars on Nanshan Mountain. Not only can they not hurt anyone, maybe Zhongping and I can catch a few of them. In fact, wild boars are not the biggest worry. Recently, many people are jealous of the soybeans in our field. I'm afraid that someone will play tricks and tear off all the soybeans while there is no one in the field, or deliberately let the cows in to eat, then it will be over."

Yingniang's face changed suddenly when she heard that, recently so many people gossip because they are too jealous, if someone really did that, several acres of land could be destroyed overnight.

Yingniang also agreed with him, but felt sorry for him, "It's uncomfortable to sleep in the thatched shed at night. It's autumn now, and it will be very cold at night. Besides, there are four acres of land, can you and Zhongping survive?"

"Build two thatched huts, one on the east side and one on the west side, and we can keep it. Even though it's autumn, it's enough just to wrap up with a layer of bedding." Bo Ming came over and hugged her, "Don't worry, Zhongping and I will definitely do well, so don't worry about family affairs."

Ying Niang nodded, she also knew that it is impossible to do well without suffering.It's just that she still couldn't help feeling sorry for Birming, so she got up and went to find the leftover medicine used by Zhaodi last time, and was going to rub it on Birming.

Bo Ming came down to stop her, "No, I still have to carry two trees today. It's useless to apply it. It's nothing for a farmer. It's just that I have to sleep in a straw shed for more than 20 days. You Are you not used to sleeping alone?"

Yingniang blushed, "No, I would have slept more soundly without you tormenting me."

Knowing that what she said was ironic, Bo Ming laughed straight away and didn't expose her.

When Boming and Zhongping had breakfast and carried the tree to the field, they saw a flock of ducks going to his field, and some of them were already eating the pods on the soybean branches.

Bo Ming quickly ran over to catch them, and this flock of ducks was raised by the couple with whom he had a quarrel last time.Birming chased away the ducks, and looked at the fallen soybean trees with distress.Zhongping was so angry that he ran to argue in front of the couple who were still talking and laughing with others standing in the distance.

"You still have time to joke around here. Didn't you see your ducks go to my field? If you spoil the soybeans in my field, you will have to pay for it!"

That man's name is Qing Zi, he pretended to apologize and said: "Zhong Ping, don't be so angry, didn't I see it?"

His mother-in-law is not forgiving, "Zhongping, what are you yelling about? My ducks have eaten a few soybeans from your house. You can count them out and show me. What's the point of planting some soybeans? My ducks are going, can it be me?" Can you tie their legs?"

Zhongping was so angry that his teeth were itching, and he was about to curse, but he was stopped by Boming in the distance. "Zhongping, when you come back, can you argue with people like them?"

Zhongping left angrily.When he came to Birming, he couldn't help complaining, "Brother, they obviously ignored me, why are you not allowed to quarrel with them?"

"When there's a big fight, or a fight, you can't tell who's right and who's wrong. It's their fault, but if you act impulsively, you're at fault, isn't it? What's more, it's not just their family who are jealous of our soybeans. The bigger the trouble, the more our soybeans become a thorn in everyone's eyes. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to keep them. Before the harvest, it's nothing for us to be wronged. After the harvest, if they want to make trouble, we will accompany them They, we don't want to eat." Boming helped the soybeans, and then carried the trees to build a straw hut.

Zhong Ping felt that the eldest brother was right, so he had to swallow his anger this time. He also picked up the tree, and sighed after Bo Ming, "Brother, it seems that we can't leave this place for a moment now, even if we eat, we have to take turns." Going home, I dare not breathe a sigh of relief day and night."

"The only way to become a master is to endure hardships. Afterwards, they will get used to our family living better than them, and they will gradually calm down and admit it."

Zhongping heard "Oh", I hope it will be like this.

When Yingniang came home in the evening, only Zhaodi was cooking at home, and then Shuchang and Jiwang also came back.Yingniang knew that Boming and Zhongping were still in the field, so after the meal was ready, she didn't eat it, but put the food and water into a basket, and wanted to send it to the field for Boming and Zhongping.

Unexpectedly, the moment she left the hospital, she ran into her mother Li Xinghua and her younger brother Zhuzi.What Yingniang was worried about really came to an end, her mother heard that she has such a high salary now, can she not be envious?
Li Xinghua looked at Yingniang with a smile, and Yingniang's hair straightened. When did her mother smile so brightly at her?Even Zhu Zhu, who didn't think much of her before, now had a flattering smile on his face.

Ying Niang said sullenly: "Mother, if you have something to say, tell me quickly, I have to deliver food to Bo Ming."

When Li Xinghua went out recently, someone praised her for raising a daughter. Seeing that her daughter is getting more and more promising, now she doesn't dare to say what she wants to Yingniang like before, and scold her whenever she wants.She stepped forward and held Yingniang's hand affectionately, "Hey, my daughter is doing well, and she doesn't even want to talk to her."

Ying Niang pulled out her hand, "Mother, don't hold my hand, I'm still carrying a basket, don't overturn the food."

Li Xinghua had no choice but to take a step back, "Oh, okay, you're right to be anxious, but you can't starve Birming. It's okay for me and your elder brother to come here, isn't it just to see you, you are fine wherever you are, we And don't worry."

Seeing that his mother was still talking politely, Zhuzi couldn't help it anymore, "Sister, you earn so much money a month now, do you plan to live a good life by yourself secretly? Are you still the daughter of the Lin family?"

Yingniang became angry, "Who said that the water I poured out belonged to the Xue family and had nothing to do with the Lin family? Now that I have made some money, I have become the daughter of the Lin family again?"

Zhuzi tilted his mouth, "If you're not the daughter of the Lin family, why are you still surnamed Lin? At that time, your parents paid for your dowry!"

Yingniang put the basket on the ground and walked into the yard without saying a word. Seeing Zhaodi, Shuchang, and Jiwang staring at her in a daze, she didn't say anything, and went directly to the kitchen to take out half a bag of cornmeal.

She put the cornmeal bag in front of Li Xinghua and said very seriously: "I remember that my parents used cornmeal as a dowry at that time, and the cornmeal was given by Birming's family. Don't talk about the dowry, or don't blame me for falling out with you! I am naturally the daughter of the Lin family, and of course the daughter-in-law of the Xue family. You are my natal family, but it doesn't mean that I will spend the money I earn I will give all the money to you, and I will treat my natal family like a daughter-in-law. I will give as much gifts as others give to my natal family during festivals and festivals, and I will not give any less to my natal family."

Li Xinghua blushed and said: "Mother didn't say that you gave less gifts, isn't it because you are more promising than other girls! You will often go back to your mother's house in the future, and your parents will follow suit."

Seeing his sister's cold face towards her natal family, Zhuzi's nose is no longer a nose, and her face is no longer a face, "Mother, don't tell her these things anymore, just look at her, throw cornmeal in front of you, and follow me!" Like a beggar."

Li Xinghua gouged out a look at the pillar, "You brat, don't make your sister unhappy." She turned to smile at Yingniang, "It was my parents who were wrong before, and my eyelids are a little shallow. But you have seen your mother's It’s not good, why are you so cruel and don’t help more? It’s not going to be of much use to give that little gift during the holidays.”

Yingniang frowned and thought for a while, "I want to help my mother's family for a while, and it's up to you whether you appreciate it. I will ask Bo Ming to save ten catties of soybean seeds to sell to you. These seeds are precious, Bo Ming said. No, the relatives who are not very close will not sell it. When the seeds are planted next year, you will ask your younger brother Genzi to come and learn how to plant them with Bo Ming. Remember, don’t come to ask me for a penny in the future. Also, next year, you can only ask my younger brother Genzi to learn to grow soybeans! And it’s only sold for ten catties, and there’s nothing more than one catty!"

Yingniang glanced at the pillar she didn't like, picked up the vegetable basket on the ground and left.

Li Xinghua and Zhuzi looked at Yingniang's back, their faces darkened.Li Xinghua reluctantly picked up the bag of cornmeal on the ground and put it on the shoulder of the pillar, "It's your job to carry the dowry, now you can carry it back by yourself!"

Zhuzi said angrily: "What is she proud of? Isn't she just the leader of a weaving workshop, and she doesn't even recognize her mother's family!"

Li Xinghua came over and patted him on the head, "How could your sister deny it? Didn't she just say that she is the daughter of the Lin family, and she also said that she would give gifts to her natal family on New Years and festivals like others."

"But she didn't even give us a penny, and she didn't even invite us in for tea. Who would she show her face like that! She also said that she was not allowed to ask her for a penny in the future! She left ten catties of soybeans and said she would sell them to us. Isn't it a gift? She is so unfilial, how many people will point at her and scold her when you see it!" The more Zhu Zi said, the more angry he became.

"Okay!" Li Xinghua yelled at him, "If you dare to speak ill of your sister to outsiders, I won't let your father break your leg! Your sister is a big shot now, and you dare to discredit her, wouldn't you? Did you discredit the Lin family? No wonder your sister looks down on you, saying that next year only Genzi will be allowed to come and learn from you, you good or bad thing!"

Zhu Zi stuck his neck, "Mother, I found out that you are the kind of grass that people say, you just know how to make some money, and you immediately turned her side!"

Li Xinghua kicked him angrily, "Brat, shut up! Your sister won't let us enter Xue's house anymore, you're embarrassed now? Go away!"

When Yingniang came to the field with the basket, she saw Boming and Zhongping washing their hands in the ditch.Boming looked up and saw that she was thinking of delivering food to them, he immediately wiped his hands on his body, trotted over, and greeted her with a smile on his face.
