Xiuse Farmhouse

Chapter 49 Inquiring, Hundreds of Strange Songs

Thinking of this, Wanwan was extremely excited, she seemed to have seen herself sitting in a beautiful garden, with a chic courtyard behind her, wearing embroidered clothes of good material, and newly bought embroidered shoes on her feet, happiness was already coming to her wave.

In the evening, she was lying on the bed with Baishou's arm, leaning against him, happily talking about her plan: "...we need to make the yard bigger, make it into a quadrangle, and build two round flower beds. , I want to plant a lot of flowers... the gate must be made of mahogany, um, and there are two columns in the corridor, what should I carve on them?"

Wan Wan tilted his head to think, and then muttered: "The big family has servants, should I bring back two workers as well?"

Baishou couldn't bear to look at his daughter-in-law's yearning little face, seeing her talking more and more outrageous, finally couldn't hold back, said: "Daughter-in-law, we don't have money to build a new yard now, and we don't want to buy people in the countryside. "

Wan Wan rolled his eyes at him, wouldn't she know how much money she had?Can't you think about it?
When Baishou saw his daughter-in-law, he was still muttering to himself, the happy smile on his little face made him feel sore, when would he let his daughter-in-law live in the big courtyard with so little money every day?Someone cleans the house, can you take a sedan chair when you go out?Suddenly he realized that his responsibility was so great, and he became more certain in his heart that no matter what, he must do his best to satisfy his wife, no matter how hard or tiring, as long as she can be happy like this every day.

Then he hugged Wanwan into his arms and said like an oath: "Daughter-in-law, when we have money, you can buy whatever you want."

Her powerful arms tightly strangled her, as if her waist was about to break.The powerful heartbeat behind her beat against her back.Baishou chin stroked her hair lightly, and nodded with a wrinkled face in pain: "Then you have to let me go first, my waist is going to be broken!"

Hearing this, Baishou let her go immediately, seeing Wanwan's little face blushing, he blamed himself: "My wife, I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose, are you okay?"

Wanwan gave him another look.I'm almost out of breath, are you okay?
Lie down sideways, and said to the people behind: "I just lie down by myself."

Baishou stared at Wanwan's back helplessly, for a moment, before Wanwan could speak again, his heart was pounding, and he called out cautiously: "Daughter-in-law?"

"Hmm." The person on the inside responded vaguely, with a tired voice.

"Daughter-in-law?" Baishou stretched his neck and looked in, Wanwan closed his eyes.

"young married woman?"

"What are you doing?" The person inside opened her eyes slightly, but the person behind was silent, and she closed her eyes again without getting a response.

moment
"young married woman?"

"Daughter-in-law, are you asleep?...Daughter-in-law??"

"What on earth are you trying to do?" Someone finally got angry and stared at him with wide eyes.

Baishou lowered his head and whispered like a mosquito: "I, I want to hug you." Rubbing his hands restlessly, he dared not look at her.

After a while, Wan Wan didn't speak, Bai Shou quietly raised his head, startled.

Wan Wan pursed her small mouth, and her beautiful eyes were bent into beautiful crescents, shining like stars in the sky.

His face was burning with panic, he was so embarrassing about his behavior just now.

It's a matter of course for him to hug his wife. It's not that he doesn't dare, but he is afraid that his wife will be angry. The combination between him and his wife is different from ordinary people. In this family, apart from love, he respects her.

Just when he was not sure what Wan Wan was thinking, he saw Wan Wan turn over to face him, and then propped his head up.

Baishou was stunned.

Wanwan rolled his eyes at him.Gently took his hand, passed through the back of his head, then lay down on his side, with his head resting on Baishou's arm and gently closed his eyes.

Baishou stared blankly at the petite figure, and immediately smiled uncontrollably on his face.He blew out the oil lamp, and then lay down.

In the dark, under the warm quilt, a small hand took a big hand and slowly put it on the slim waist.

Hands clasped, fingers interlocked.

Wordless happiness slowly spread in this simple hut.

The next day, Wanwan cooked pancakes early in the morning as usual, and took Baishou to sell in the market. After eating, Wanwan closed the door and went to Shitou's house.

Shitou Niang was alone at home, this was the first time she had really entered Shitou's house, and she had already been to Yuanbao's house to deliver things.

Wanwan had already taken a closer look, and found that many people in the village had stone walls in their homes, and some of them had mud walls, but there were at least three or four houses, and the poorest ones were better than hers.

Shitou’s house and the village head’s house are actually in the same yard. The yard is very large and separated by a fence in the middle. After all, the Shitou’s house has three houses, and the hut on the far side was built later.There are four main rooms over there.

She didn't understand until she heard what Shitou Niang said.Because Uncle Shitou Yang Feng’s family moved to the town, but the family’s house is also supposed to be shared by the eldest brother, but Yang Feng’s family has a house in the town, so later, Yang Kaishi made up some money for his elder brother, but because of the money Not much, and later I left a room at the side of the two old people, so that when Yang Feng's family came back, they would have a place to live.

But according to Shitou Niang, Yang Feng meant that as long as Yang Kaishi gave the money worth two rooms, he would give Yang Kaishi all the houses.But Yang Kaishi didn't have that much money at that time, and the whole family had to make ends meet, so he couldn't spend all his money to drink the Northwest Wind!
Later, under Yang Yizhi's mediation, Yang Kaishi gave some of the money to get an extra room, and Yang Yizhi kept an extra room, which was Yang Feng's.

Yang Feng seldom brings his wife and children back to live, only sometimes Yang Rui will come back to play.

On the surface, Yang Feng seemed to have suffered a disadvantage.But Shitou Niang thinks that if they leave a room for the two old people, if one day the two old people let go, Yang Feng will definitely come back to discuss the division of the family property. At that time, I am afraid that it would be good for their family to get a partial house.

In fact, Yang Kaishi and his wife suffered a disadvantage.Yang Feng's original plan was that if Yang Kaishi bought all his share, even if Yang Feng came back with his wife and children, he would still have to live at home. The old man shared the food, and Yang Feng seemed to have no house here.But if Yang Feng stays at home all the time, he still has to be with the old man.He got the money and had no credit.

When the two old people have something to do, Yang Feng will definitely try to occupy the house again, maybe let Yang Kaishi pay for the money again.

Wanwan didn't expect Shitou's family to be so complicated. This is the so-called family has its own scriptures that are hard to recite.Although Yang Yizhi is the village head, he still has to face these problems.

In a blink of an eye, she realized that the dried bamboo shoots she made were to be sold to Yang Feng, so she immediately asked Shitou Niang: "He won't say anything to us, will he?"

"Let's talk about the price first." Shitou Niang seemed to have thought about it a long time ago, and she looked surprised, and then explained: "It doesn't matter if I get more or less money, but you took us to dig on the mountain for a while, and you can pay for it." Teach us how to make a law, how can I not let you lose money, and Sister-in-law Qingye, who has a mother-in-law on her head, left her family and ran to us, no matter what, she has to earn a few silver to go back to have an explanation, yes Do not?"

Wanwan didn't expect Shitou Niang to think so much.

After a while, Yuan Baoniang also came. The three of them helped to make fresh bamboo shoots at Shitou's house in the morning. Shitou's father took Shitou to his grandma's house. The three of them had Xiangwu at Shitou's house, and then went to Yuanbao At home, Yuan Bao's father was working in the field, and his grandma was alone at home. By the way, she was also watching how a few people made dried bamboo shoots, and by the way, they helped each other. They talked and laughed happily.

However, the behavior of the three of them in the past two days still attracted the attention of some people in the village.

"...I went to the mountain yesterday, went to Shitou's house this morning, and came here again this afternoon. What do you think they are doing?" Lan Huaniang and Jindanniang stood not far from Yuanbao's house, The head kept peeking in secretly.

"How about we go in and have a look?" Jin Danniang hesitated.

After a while, the two finally went to Yuan Bao's house without overcoming the curiosity in their hearts. She was not surprised by the arrival of the two, after all, their family is now concerned by the village, but what they said surprised her. .

"Ah, so you went to dig bamboo shoots on the mountain two days ago?" Lan Huaniang said with a smile.

"Look at the fresh and tender bamboo shoots! But... what is it for?" Jindanniang asked, picking up a half-ripe bamboo shoot that was torn apart in the basin.

"Make dried bamboo shoots!" Yuan Baoniang said.

"Ah, dried bamboo shoots! I heard that those things are worth a lot of money." Lan Huaniang exclaimed in surprise.

Everyone looked at her, not expecting that she also knew dried bamboo shoots.Lan Huaniang smiled and said: "I heard people say that they can sell a lot of silver in the market store before!" Rolling her eyes, she looked at the three of them eagerly and said, "Are you planning to sell it?"

The three of Wanwan looked at each other and sighed helplessly in their hearts.

After the first winter bamboo shoots are prepared, and when it is time to dig the bamboo shoots for the second time, Jindanniang and Lanhuaniang are naturally in the ranks of digging bamboo shoots.This matter was soon known by many people in the village, some envied and some disdainful.

During this period, Baishou went to the mountain to help Wang Baoshan look at the fruit trees a few times. It is best to wait until the next spring for grafting.And Wanwan led the crowd to dig winter bamboo shoots twice, and even Jindanniang and Lanhuaniang made a lot of dried bamboo shoots.She has to turn over and over the bamboo shoots on the Tengtiao every day, and now the yard is full of dried bamboo shoots.It will be sold for silver in a few days.The days of making money always go by quickly.

Wanwan poured the pigweed back into the pot, lit the fire and started to cook the pig food, when there was a sound outside, Baishou came back.They now come back from mowing more hogweed every day, in case they don't have time to mow hogweed the next day.

Wanwan came out of the kitchen to pick up Baishou's back betels. Today, besides the usual grass, there are many wild vegetables and wild fruits.A lot of pig food can make the pigs grow stronger. The two piglets in their family grow very fast. Several times, Baishou went to a restaurant to sell their prey. Shopkeeper Yu heard that Baishou raised pigs, and specially asked people to take those pigs. Let him pick up the leftovers and feed them to the pigs. The meat in restaurants is the easiest to grow piglets.

"How about adding some more fruits to them tonight?" Wanwan said while picking out the fruits, and she felt that there seemed to be too many fruits after picking out all the fruits. Baishou has not spoken.

Turning around, I found Baishou sitting on the threshold, with his head down, feeling a little depressed.

"What's wrong with you?" Wanwan walked over to him and asked him.

Baishou lowered his head and pursed his lips, raised his head for a while, and said, "It's okay." He got up and took the fruit that Wanwan picked out into the kitchen, and then poured it into the pot.

Wanwan was puzzled, and followed into the kitchen, only to realize that Baishou's complexion was not good, she kept pursing her lips, and she would make such small movements when she had something on her mind.

"Baishou, what's wrong with you?" Wanwan observed his expression secretly.

Baishou looked at Yan Wanwan's worried look, lowered his eyes, shook his head for a while, then smiled at her again, and said, "It's okay. I'm a little tired today."

Baishou didn't want to say that she couldn't force her, so Wanwan comforted him a few words before letting him go to rest and start a fire by himself, it seemed that Baishou really had something on his mind today, he really put down his kitchen work and sat in the yard, as usual he would You should smile and say: "It's okay for my daughter-in-law, I'll do it."

In the evening, Wanwan specially cooked his favorite dishes, and after dinner, he boiled hot water to wash his hair.Because Baishou likes her to wash his hair.She talked to him while washing.

"Look, your hair has grown a lot, and it's become black and smooth. How can the method I taught you be effective?"

Baishou buried his head in response.

Wan Wan will use a wooden spoon to scoop up water to rinse off the foam on his hair, and take a dry handkerchief to wipe his hair: "As long as you persist, your hair will be smooth in the future, and it won't get tangled when you comb it. I'll go The first time I saw a hair rope in the market, I will buy it for you next time."

Baishou shook his head vigorously: "No. Those things are used by Brother Gongzi, so I can just stick mine."

Men sometimes use all kinds of beautiful headbands to tie their hair. People in the countryside generally don't pay much attention to this, but Wanwan thinks that if Baishou puts on new clothes, he will look good when dressed.

"We can buy the ordinary ones, which are plain and not fancy." Wanwan looked at him expectantly, and the corners of his mouth curled up: "Besides, people want to see you get pricked!" He said with a shy look on his face.

Baishou's eyes lit up fiercely, and he grinned and held his crooked little face, and said softly and somewhat tangled: "If this is the case, then, then fine!"

Wanwan chuckled, she knew that Baishou loved her the most, so she tiptoed happily to give him a smack on his face.

When it was over, both of them were stunned.

Bai Shou had a face full of disbelief and joy, and Wan Wan blushed after being slightly dazed.

Well, she did it out of the blue, a move that she didn't even think of, but it felt good, and she didn't have the slightest dislike for this move.Maybe this is a good start! !
