Female supporting roles rely on food to save themselves

Chapter 228

Anyone entering the Gu Xiang farm must check their background.

Back then, the old dog had checked Zhao Susu's details.

The Liu family has always said that Zhao Susu is lazy, that she is not a good woman except that she knows how to eat and does anything wrong.Other villagers in Dali Village also said that Zhao Susu was always clumsy when working in the fields.

This is the truth.

But it is such a woman who can't work in the field at all, who will serve Mrs. Liu until she grows old. In the most difficult time, she would not eat or drink by herself, and let her daughter suffer, but she did not starve the old grandmother.

At that time, Mrs. Liu was too sick to get out of bed, and her son and daughter-in-law could not count on her. None of the many grandchildren were willing to do their filial piety in front of the bed. I was busy working in the field at home, and when I sent the old man away, it was Zhao Susu who used his savings for many years to buy a shroud for the old lady, bought a thin coffin, and sent the old man away with dignity.

That's not to mention, when the gang of bandits harassed Dali Village back then, they happened to find their old Liu's house. It was Zhao Susu who was not afraid of danger, and even cheated and deceived the bandits away, saving Liu Yusheng's life.

Mrs. Liu saved Zhao Susu back then, and Zhao Susu had worked as a cow and horse in the Liu family for these years, and she had paid off long ago. Now that she and Liu Yusheng have reconciled, the family property must be divided.

In fact, in this dynasty, women often proposed reconciliation and separation, and the first queen mother remarried after reconciliation.

In this regard, the government usually favors women, and the distribution of family property also favors women.

Gu Xiang's voice was very soft, but Mrs. Liu kept staring at her. Hearing what she said, her whole body exploded, and she didn't care about pretending to be dead. , Dreaming! I would rather beat this Zhao to death than let her reconcile."

Zhao Susu's eyes narrowed slightly, Gu Xiang held her by the sleeve and said with a smile: "This lady doesn't understand the law, so Mrs. Zhao must understand."

"Wife is here, take concubine as wife, one hundred sticks. Well, with the strength of our county government servants, one hundred sticks can kill people if you are not careful. What are you doing with Mrs. Zhao? Treat me Write a petition for Mrs. Zhao, just in time for the magistrate Wang to come to dinner, just present it to him directly, after Liu Yusheng receives the hundred rods, if he accidentally dies, wouldn't it be much easier?"

Gu Xiang said this very easily.

Mrs. Liu was stunned, her eyelids twitched, she got up from the ground and ran away without even patting her butt.

Gu Xiang: "..."

The seven people who rushed over to save her face are still lying on the ground right now.

Gu Xiang smiled and looked back at the old dog.

"clear."

The old dog led people to lift these people up and drag them away, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, my brothers are very familiar with this job, and I guarantee that they will never dare to make trouble again."

Gu Xiang: "..."

Suddenly, I really want to know why the old dogs are so skilled.

"Okay, let's leave everyone, it's time to go to work in a while. Tonight, I'll give you a taste of the fish jelly and bone dregs balls I made, as well as the leek box and multi-flavored pimple soup. Don't look at it as simple as it sounds, it's all homemade , but it’s quite skillful, you only do it once, and don’t care if you can’t eat it.”

Gu Xiang laughed.

Everyone burst into laughter immediately, discussing happily and dispersed.

Aunt Jin greeted Zhao Susu with a smile, and hurried to work so as not to delay her meal.

She has to rush to the greenhouse to study, if she is slower, she may not be able to eat dinner.

Unlike Zhao Susu, Aunt Jin has signed a contract long ago and is a serious farmer. She is now learning the technique of growing vegetables in a greenhouse. The teacher is an old man from two Huotou camps. Big, very smart, Gu Xiang taught them by hand, and compiled a technical manual with pictures and texts for them, and the two of them learned about the same.

These two were originally from farming households, and they are good at farming and vegetable cultivation. Although they don't know how to grow greenhouses, they can learn a little bit and get started quickly.

Gu Xiang said softly: "Don't worry about Heli, we will all help you and Ah Man, and Wang Zhixian is also a sensible person."

Zhao Susu nodded, chuckled, looked at the slender figure of the third lady from a distance, and looked at the kind people around, and suddenly felt much lighter.

Maybe everyone really doesn't mind people from the Liu family making trouble.

Throughout the afternoon, Zhao Susu wished she could use all her strength to do all kinds of work, but all the hard work dissipated naturally when night fell.

There was a burst of aroma in the cafeteria.

Each of the bone dregs balls is half the size of a palm, and when you bite down, the almost transparent white bones are exposed, crunching, crispy and delicious.

The fish jelly is even smoother, and it takes a while to melt into a fragrant thick soup. The soup is mixed with some small meat, which is simply delicious.

A mouthful of bone dregs balls, a mouthful of fragrant cooking cakes, another mouthful of soft and sticky round-grained rice porridge, and finally a spoonful of fish jelly. It's warm and cozy.

At this time, Gu Qiang, the uncle of the Gu family, was coming out of Gu Laoshi's house in a hurry, and happened to pass by the back door of the farm. He smelled the fragrance coming from inside, and suddenly his stomach growled. He pulled off his belt and sighed. tone.

Just now at the second brother's house, the second brother asked him to eat, but he was really ashamed, so he resigned after all.

All day today, he only ate a piece of biscuit that was almost as hard as a rock.

Gu Qiang didn't want to come to look for the second brother at first. He has been the eldest at home since he was a child, serving his parents and taking care of the younger brother. It has always been his job. He never thought that one day he would ask the second brother to ask him to borrow money from him. , it was difficult for him to open his mouth.

It’s just that there’s no way, my father-in-law got sick from anger, and all the old-age money from my father-in-law was used for his family’s Shiro to study. With the payment for the goods, he insisted that it would be paid at the end of the month... He had no choice but to go back to Zhuang, and first find his second brother to pay for it.

"Hey."

Gu Qiang touched the two taels of silver ingots in his pocket.He looked back at the baggage in the basket behind his back again, his eyes were slightly hot, and he sighed inwardly.

He knew that this was the brocade quilt and some old ginseng that his younger brother secretly put on for him behind his back.

This must be Sanniang's filial piety to her younger brother, who saved it from her own mouth and gave it to him.

"Hey!"

When his second brother didn't marry a wife, he was busy from morning to night every day in order to provide for his third brother's education and marry him a wife. , other villages, but he rushed to do any errands that required hard work.

I don't know when, maybe since he and his second brother got married separately, had their own children, and had their own small family, he had other thoughts in his heart.Daughter-in-law and son gradually become more important than younger brother, even his parents.

Gu Qiang smiled wryly, but this little selfishness actually hurt his son... But life is still to be lived.
