Hard times have room

Chapter 531 Happiness is Simple

"Yeah, there are so many people in his family, the old lady in the family can't work anymore. The three big ones can help a little bit, but there are two small ones. The pressure is more than ours." Su Hongying left. Go to Wang Jiandang's side and answer.

Although she has nothing to do with Xu Tao, she still has quite a lot of interactions with Xu Tao's daughter-in-law Wang Yan, and they have a good relationship. She has heard Wang Yan talk about the situation in his family. It is very sad at this time. One, the pressure is on the rise.

By the way, the eldest of his family seems to be eighteen or nineteen, and now he is about to get married.

If nothing else, eating and drinking alone is a big problem. Although Xu Tao's family has been separated, the couple has five children, and there is an old lady on top of them. There are eight people in total. There are five laborers, but these five have to support the other three, which puts a lot of pressure on them.

After she finished speaking, Su Hongying looked at Paulin who was carrying the bucket and stumbled and almost fell. She quickly took the bucket into her own hands. If the loach fell to the ground, it would be troublesome to pick it up.

"You said, you almost fell. This loach fell into the ground. It's hard to pick it up. It's hard to get to this point. If something happens again, you won't have dinner. Are you hungry?"

"I told you earlier, I came and I came, but you didn't listen. If you have to fight with me, do you want to fight with me now? Why don't you grab my hoe." After saying these words, Su Hongying finally felt comfortable. some more.

Before, Pauline was scrambling to mention it, but no matter how persuaded it was, she almost fell. She felt that it was because of Pauline's disobedience and persuasion before, but she must not talk too hard.

Paulin didn't refute, this was indeed her own pot, she thought it would be easy to lift, just how heavy a bucket of fish could be, but I didn't expect it to be quite heavy.

Of course, it's more likely that she hasn't "exercised" her arm strength for a long time. In addition to the fact that she digs the ground before, her hands may be a little sore. When she actually carries this bucket, she will know that she overestimates herself and underestimates herself. the weight of the bucket.

By the time Su Hongying and Wang Jiandang returned home, it was already half an hour later. They had no choice but to walk all the way. They were stopped by the aunts, aunts, and aunts. They all asked them what they were doing, so it was impossible not to answer. It takes a lot of time for one person to ask a few questions.

What's more, there are those who like to get to the bottom of things, and they feel that they are hiding things, they are hiding their secrets, and they are holding them both away. They have to tell them how to deal with it, and ask if there is something hidden. Luzi, if the husband and wife are asked to speak out, they must not tell others and so on. Both of them are a little annoyed when they hear these words.

However, they can only talk to them in good words. If they dare to get angry and argue with their "elders", it will be a quarrel, and it will blow up the sky. When that time comes, it will be even more troublesome.

Su Hongying had a deep understanding of this point. Thinking back then, when she first came here, it was really "lively".

By this time, Wang Jiandang was already a little regretful. Paulin had told them before that she would take a long way to go home, but he didn't listen. He also said that she had too many things and thought too much. In the end, it was the one who suffered. self.

Su Hongying was the same. She couldn't regret it. Along the way, she met a dozen or so aunts and aunts, and all of them pulled her to talk. scolded her nose.

As soon as the two returned home, they spread their legs and sat on the stone pier at the entrance of the main room.

"What's wrong with you? When you came back, you looked exhausted. You were not like that when you first separated." Paulin heard the movement outside, came out with two bowls of gruel, and asked .

There is not much rice left at home. Most of the rice that was taken out before was taken out by Wang Jiandang and replaced with coarse grains. One kilogram of rice was exchanged for three kilograms of coarse grains. Most of them were sweet potatoes, although they were less than normal years. Two kilograms, but at this time, if they can exchange three for one, their family is already very satisfied.

Now there are about ten catties of paddy left in the family, two catties of rice, and more than 50 catties of sweet potatoes.

The porridge she is holding now is very thin and thin. She just grabbed two handfuls of rice and boiled a large pot of porridge. She boiled it in the morning and drank a bowl of porridge per person, and saved the rest for the afternoon.

After all, after a day's work, she will definitely be hungry when she comes back. First, eat some gruel to cushion her stomach. She has already eaten it before.

"Don't mention it, I walked all the way back, I don't know how many aunties I met, and they kept pulling me and asking. If I knew it would be like this, I would listen to you, take a small road, and go back a long way." Su Hongying held the small bowl in her hand. After swallowing the porridge, he said weakly.

After such a circle, she felt so tired that she didn't want to move.

"With food in my stomach, the whole person feels much more comfortable."

"By the way, what do you eat at night? Or just loach. It's a pity not to eat after getting so much."

Just after drinking the gruel in the bowl, Su Hongying started talking about dinner. This day, she was looking forward to it.

In the morning, it is the unstoppable wild vegetable soup or a bowl of gruel, plus a bowl of dried grasshoppers, and it can be changed in the evening.

"Okay, the two jars of sauerkraut I've accumulated before are already ready, and it's just right for this loach."

Pauline had filled several vegetable jars at home before the calamity of the bugs was not too serious.

Two jars of sauerkraut, a jar of chopped peppers mixed with dried mushrooms, a jar of mixed fish with chopped peppers, and a small jar of chopped peppers are all pickled vegetables, but the taste is okay, both soup and porridge are good.

The jars of dried mushrooms and miscellaneous fish that were mixed are purely used as side dishes. As for sauerkraut and chopped peppers, they are used for seasoning. When making fish and snails, use these to suppress the taste.

"This is emotional, will it taste better if you put some oil on it?" Although it was a questioning tone, Su Hongying was convinced in her heart. Today, the braised loach with sauerkraut does not put oil, and she eats it. Not refreshing.

Pauline also knows this, she never argues with her parents over food issues: "Okay, listen to you, oil must be more fragrant, we haven't eaten anything oily in a long time. ."

"Okay, that's it, you go get the oil, and I'll pick the loach." Su Hongying said with a wide-eyed smile, obviously very satisfied.

Her happiness is very simple, as long as she eats well later today, as she wishes.

As for Wang Jiandang, who was sitting on the side, he was completely ignored by the mother and daughter. Anyway, no matter what, when facing these two people, his answer will always be the same. I will do it, listen to you of.
