farm daughter-in-law

Chapter 8

Feelings come from somewhere, after Mrs. Zhang gave birth to a child, there is nothing she can't let go of after a long time. This is what Mrs. He Zeng thinks now.

After eating the morning food, Zhang Xihua finished the housework, went to the vegetable garden and peeled some green leaves, chopped them up, and cooked them for the pigs at noon.The grain has not yet been harvested, and the stock of grain has been reduced a little bit. At this time, it is in short supply. The He family can only eat two meals a day, morning and evening, but the two big fat pigs raised in the family must be fed three meals, and they have to be fed hot food.

Seeing that everything was in order, Zhang Xihua put the dirty clothes that her husband and she changed yesterday into the tub, and planned to go to the river to wash the clothes.

Just as he was about to go out, He Yuanyuan stepped out of the room, holding a pile of clothes in his hand, pouted and said happily, "Sister-in-law, help me wash it together. The sun is very hot outside, I really don't want this to happen." go out."

It's so easy to have a sister-in-law to share the housework, and this sister-in-law should do whatever she says, and it's no wonder He Yuanyuan did it herself.

Sure enough, Zhang Xihua heard it and said, "Then let it in."

He Yuanyuan said happily: "Sister-in-law is the best to me. It is really a blessing for our He family that my brother can marry you."

Seeing her sister-in-law bouncing back to the room, Zhang Xihua shook her head, she doesn't care about luck or not, marry a chicken as a chicken, marry a dog as a dog, she is married to He Sheng, and she will follow him for the rest of her life, naturally Think what he thinks, enjoy what he likes, she also cares about the family he cares about, and she will treat the people he hates equally.

Thinking of her husband, Zhang Xihua blushed secretly, and hurried out of the door holding the tub.

The Yushui River is to the east of the village, not far from He's house, and the walking distance is only a few minutes. Meng Lang still had pain from last night's rush. Just a click.

"Sister Xihua..."

Zhang Xihua raised her head, and it turned out to be the young daughter-in-law Yanniang bought by Jiang Dashan's three brothers in the village.The pointed chin sets off the palm-sized small face, and the eyes are big and lifeless.

This kind of appearance should be pleasing, but that figure looks too thin, and there is no good fortune.I heard that Yan Niang should be sold into a cellar in Japan.Fortunately, he was picked by Jiang Dashan.

Everyone in the village said that it was not certain whether it was bad luck or good luck.Think about it, if you enter the cellar, you will be able to eat delicious food and spicy food, but if you give it to the Jiang family, you may not be able to fill your stomach.

This is an era of laughing at the poor but not laughing at the prostitutes.

"Yanniang is also going to do the laundry, and she happens to have a companion, so let's go together." Zhang Xihua couldn't help but smile and replied.

"Okay." Yan Niang whispered, the whole person looked very low-browed and pleasing to the eye, she actually came to the West Village more than a month earlier than Sister Xihua, because of her timid nature, she couldn't find anyone who could talk here, since The last time I washed clothes by the river, I accidentally fell into the river. As a result, all the village women stood by and watched, and let her fill a lot of water. In the end, it was He Sheng's wife who pulled her up.

Yan Niang is very grateful to her, and she is also full of closeness to her imperceptibly.

The road leading to the river is one of the main roads in the village, and it is very spacious. Zhang Xihua originally wanted to walk side by side with Yanniang, but no matter how deliberately she slowed down and waited for her, Yanniang would follow a few steps behind.

Even walking was trembling, alas... Zhang Xihua couldn't help but sigh in her heart, she didn't care about walking slowly anymore, she just followed behind if she liked.

The village built steps by the river where the clothes were washed, and all of them were flat and large stones.In the past, you only need to wash clothes by the stone of the second step, but now you have to go down to the sixth stone.It can be seen how dry it is today.

Now there is no one else, Zhang Xihua and Yanniang occupy each side, and start washing clothes without interfering with each other.Even in small talk, she and Yan Niang couldn't speak a few words.

Yan Niang's mouth really needs a stick to hold back a word or two, compared to her husband, she cherishes words like gold, but today for some unknown reason, she took the initiative to call someone.

She took a stick and beat the clothes vigorously. The clothes her husband had replaced were very dirty, so she had to beat them hard. While she was beating, two acacia locusts appeared in front of her eyes.

Yan Niang silently handed it over, her eyes were bright, as if expecting her to take it.

Zhang Xihua accepted it with a smile, and said, "I don't have time to look for acacia seeds these two days, so thank you very much."

In the past few days, the few acacias in the village have been plucked by people. Those people don't use so much at a time, so they store them up. These days, life is hard, and people really want to hoard everything.

Crush the acacia and mix it in the clothes, so the stain will come out quickly.She doesn't have many clothes, and except for her sister-in-law who occasionally asks her to do the laundry, she doesn't need to handle her in-laws' clothes.So it didn't take long for her to wash it off.

"You wash slowly, I'll go back first." Zhang Xihua stood up holding the basin.

Yanniang stood up in a hurry, but before Zhang Xihua could walk over, she suddenly fell down.Startled Zhang Xihua, quickly put down the tub, squatted down to see if she was hurt.
