Reborn Big Brother: Farming Daily Life
Chapter 75 The Old House
Chapter 75
Early in the morning, when Qingxiu heard movement in the yard, she also got up.
Parents are going to sell rice noodles in the county, and she will also start preparing breakfast for the family.
At this time, Li Shi and Shen Dahe were about to drag their horses out, and when they saw her, they said, "Qingxiu, go to sleep again, don't wake up so early in the cold weather."
Qingxiu smiled, "If you wake up, you won't be able to sleep."
Mrs. Li looked at her daughter and smiled lovingly. It wasn't for her bragging, there were not many girls in the world as capable as her eldest daughter.
For a 12-year-old, both the house and the vegetable field are well-kept.
Of course, Qing Ning is also capable, but that girl can't be praised for her ability. I have never seen anyone praise her daughter for being bold and fierce, she is strong and fast, and she is a good driver of a carriage!
This doesn't sound like boasting about the girl's family.
Just as she was thinking, Qingxiu pulled out a crock pot from the cupboard, put it on the stove and burned it, wrapped it in a cloth and handed it to Mrs. Li.
"I put the longan syrup simmering in the stove last night. You can drink it with dad on the way. It's too cold today."
"Oh, why didn't I see the stove in the morning, so you didn't get up in the middle of the night to get it."
Qingxiu laughed, "Hey, I slept until midnight and suddenly remembered that I forgot to tell you. I was afraid that the fire would be turned over this morning, so I got up and took it out."
"You, just tell me in the middle of the night, what if you get cold?"
Over there, Shen Dahe was urging her, "Mother, hurry up."
"Alas, here we come." After Li Shi finished speaking, she went out holding the earthen jar.
When the two reached the east end of the village, they met Li Lanfang coming out to wash clothes.
"Auntie is out of the stall?"
"Hey, Lan Fang came out to wash clothes in such a cold day, and wait until the sun shines at noon before washing."
Li Lanfang said with a smile, "I don't feel cold anymore."
On the carriage, Mrs. Li glanced at Li Lanfang and then at the pot in her arms.
"His father, let's refuse the marriage of our main family, just say that the child is too young, and I don't want to do it now."
Shen Dahe said without turning back, "Why did you change your mind again, don't you still want your child to marry closer?"
Li's face was tangled, "Thinking about my delicate family, if I marry her, and my mother-in-law rubs her clothes in such a cold day, I'm afraid I will die of heartache."
"Okay, then refuse. I was just about to tell you about this. Qingxiu is too soft-tempered. I'm also afraid that she will be angry with Lizheng's wife."
Mrs. Li did not expect that Shen Dahe, who agreed yesterday, would change his mind overnight.
"Didn't you say that this family is very good?"
"Qingxiu is too young, wait a minute, when I earn more dowry for the baby, I will have more confidence in talking about kissing in the future."
In the courtyard of the Shen family.
Qingxiu was cooking porridge, Qingning put preserved eggs and lean meat into the pot, and threw some chopped vegetable leaves into it.
"Okay, just put some chopped green onions in the pot."
Qingxiu had a disgusted look on her face, "It's ginger and green onion, and preserved egg, I'm afraid to eat it."
"Just stop crying while eating later."
"Why am I crying?"
"I'm crying because it's delicious."
"I believe your nonsense."
Shen Qingning clapped her hands, "That's it, just add another pickle."
"No, I'll make an omelette for Miao Er, in case she doesn't want to eat it."
"Okay, then I'll feed the pigs first."
There is not much work at home now, and the sisters are much more relaxed.
She was in charge of feeding the chickens, pigs and donkeys, and Qingxiu was in charge of cooking, and then the two sisters washed clothes together.
In this cold day, Shen Qingning didn't have the face to ask Qingxiu to wash her clothes, and the two sisters worked very quickly together.
In the last word, a pot was set up to cook pig food.
Mrs. Li only caught two pigs and came back. No one went out to hunt pigweed anymore. These two pigs were all supported by the beautiful vegetable garden.
Now the vegetable field is full of radishes, cabbage, garlic and the like.
Shen Qingning first set up an iron pot and boiled the leftover soup and water from the guests that Mrs. Li brought back from the county.
Then I went to the field and pulled some radishes and cabbage, chopped them, threw them into a pot and boiled them hot, then put them in buckets, let them cool down, and poured them directly into the pig trough.
The two piglets moaned and chirped and surrounded them.
She is not willing to do this job, so the plan to make money must continue, at least she can not feed the pigs herself, right?
There is also laundry, which is not a good job in such a cold day.
"Second sister, eat, second sister, eat!"
Shen Zheng stretched out his head and yelled twice, then ran back again.
I cooked meat porridge, egg pancakes and meat pancakes early this morning, and they don’t taste good when they’re cold.
Shen Qingning washed his hands in the courtyard, went into the main room, picked up a bowl of porridge and ate a spoonful.
"Delicious." That's the taste.
It's just that some people in the family don't buy it, such as Xiao Miao'er.
She spat out the porridge in her mouth, and said twice, "It's not good, it's not good."
Shen Qingning tapped Miao'er's forehead, "Don't vomit, eat pancakes if you don't eat."
He brought her a piece of meat pie for the little girl to chew on.
The little girl took two bites and said softly, "It's delicious."
Now the food at home is getting better and better. Every day, Mrs. Li needs to buy meat to make rice noodles, and she always saves some for the children.
Today Qingxiu was afraid that old Shentou Jiang would not be able to eat this preserved egg and lean meat porridge, so she made some meat pancakes.
Jiang put down the bowl in her hand, "Qingxiu doesn't have to cook for me and your father at noon today, and we'll go back to the old house after dinner."
Qingxiu hurriedly asked, "Grandma, why are you going back, isn't it good to live here?"
Shen Qingning tried to persuade her to stay, "Grandma, don't go back, it's so lively living together."
Shen Guan also said, "Grandma, it's almost the Chinese New Year, let's talk about it after the Chinese New Year."
Shen Guan has been on vacation in the school since today, and the husband will not come back until after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
Jiang smiled and shook his head, "I took all my and your grandfather's things back yesterday, but I didn't tell your mother, so I stayed for another night. I already told your parents yesterday."
Old Shentou also put down his chopsticks, "Your grandma and I know that you are both good kids, but we are used to living in old houses, and there are many old guys around, so it's closer for your grandma to go to the village to chat."
The three children all knew that this was not the reason. The two old men were afraid that the faces of the uncle and the third uncle would not look good. After all, the three sons only separated. gossip.
"Then grandpa and grandma have lunch before leaving."
Mrs. Jiang patted her hand, "It's not a bad meal. Tomorrow will be the 24th birthday. At noon, you and your uncle and third uncle's family should come to my room for dinner."
At this moment, Shen Qingning asked, "Grandma, is it lunch or evening?"
Jiang also knew what day it was tomorrow, she said with a smile, "Grandma's family eats lunch, so it won't delay your business."
The children also laughed and laughed. They were actually very reluctant to part with it. The old couple had lived for a month, and they had already gotten used to it.
Old Shentou is used to telling them about ancient times while smoking a dry cigarette, and Jiang's is used to talking about things about big families!
