It is difficult for the farmer's sister

Chapter 109 The Past of the Chen Family ([-]th day of March)

Chen Ru smiled wryly, "Although my father is alive, my mother bled heavily on the day my brother was born. So everyone in the village thinks that my family is oppressive, and anyone who comes in contact with him will have bad luck."

Su Rui "..."

Why does this feel more complicated than her home?Su Rui didn't know how to comfort Chen Ru.

"Sister Ru, rumors stop at wise men, don't think too much about it."

Chen Ru smiled, "We're fine. After so many years, we've gotten used to it, and what they say is theirs and we live ours, so it doesn't bother us."

Su Rui: "...that's why the aunt was surprised when we came to see you today."

"Isn't it? She probably can't figure out why someone is willing to approach our house, so she won't be afraid of being infected by bad luck. Hahaha"

As Chen Ru spoke, she laughed.

Su Chennan was squatting on the ground playing, when he heard the loud laughter, he was so frightened that he pounced on Su Rui, who patted his back to comfort him, and looked at Chen Ru helplessly.

"Sister Ru, you're laughing too loudly. Also, don't talk about your family like that."

Chen Ru stopped laughing, smiled wryly, shook her head, and said nothing more.

Su Rui and his group chatted with Mrs. Chen for a long time. It was almost noon when Grandma Chen said, "Ru'er, go and kill a chicken. At noon, let's cook the chicken for Su Rui's siblings."

Su Rui hurriedly got up, and waved her hand to stop, "No, no, we won't eat, the house is still under construction at home, and we have to take care of the meal at noon every day."

After Su Rui finished speaking, she remembered the important things of this trip, and hurriedly said: "By the way, sister Chen Ru, we are going to the beam on the [-]th, and I want a whole slaughtered pig. Can you deliver it to my house on the [-]th?"

Chen Ru looked at Su Rui suspiciously, "A whole one? Aren't they usually pig heads and tails?"

Su Rui nodded, "Yes, the pig's head and pig's tail are usually required, and I also need to use these two parts, but the guest of Shangliang also needs to eat meat, since I have to buy them all, it's better to ask for a whole one."

Chen Ru understood, "Oh, fine, I'll tell A Dong tonight and ask him to notify my father tomorrow, and I'll deliver it to you on the [-]th."

Su Rui said gratefully, "Thank you, sister Chen Ru, then we will wait at home on the [-]th."

Chen Ru smiled and nodded Su Rui's forehead, "Thank you? You're welcome."

After saying goodbye to Chen Ru, when Su Rui and his group were walking out of the village, they were stopped by the aunt who showed them the way, "You, you'd better stay away from the butcher's house. Her family kills too many animals, so they don't live long, and whoever touches They will all be infected with bad luck."

Su Rui "..."

Meng Mingzhou, Ming Xu "..."

Su Ying, Su Wan "..."

Only Su Chennan was in Meng Mingzhou's arms, looking left and right.

The aunt saw that Su Rui and the others didn't believe her, so she hurriedly said, "It's true. His family, Chen Bei, married a daughter-in-law two years ago, but she fell ill and died a few days after passing through the house. His family's Chen Ru also met a man from a neighboring village. , It’s just that I had more contact with him, so I slipped and fell into the river one evening when it was raining heavily and drowned.”

Su Rui "... What does this have to do with their family?"

The aunt looked at Su Rui in surprise, "Isn't this none of their business? It happened because of contact with them."

Su Rui sighed, "Okay."

Before the aunt left, she repeatedly told Su Rui and his party to stay away from the Chen family.

Su Ying looked at Su Rui worriedly, "Sister, what should I do?"

Su Rui asked strangely, "What should I do?"

Su Wan said from the side, "Second Sister asked if we would have bad luck when we contacted Sister Chen Ru's family."

Su Rui shook her head, "Eldest sister doesn't believe this, you have to remember, don't trust your ears at any time, but trust your eyes, hearing it a hundred times is worse than seeing it once."

Su Ying still looked at Su Rui with some doubts. When Su Rui was thinking about how to explain to Su Ying, she heard Meng Mingzhou ask Su Ying.

"Have you ever heard of the phrase "three people become a tiger"?"

Su Ying nodded, she had heard from Su Chenrui.

Meng Mingzhou continued, ""Three people become tigers". Three people lied about tigers in the city, and those who heard them believed it. It means that if more people say it, people will take the rumors as facts. The Chen family is like the rumors. Tiger, do you understand?"

Su Ying understood, "Brother Mingzhou, you know a lot."

Meng Mingzhou smiled slightly, "Your elder sister also knows a lot."

Su Rui looked at Meng Mingzhou in surprise, but he just nodded slightly at her, then walked forward with Su Chennan in his arms.

"You guys go home first, I'll go find my aunt."

Su Rui passed by the door of Wang's house, and thought of hiring her to help cook the sauce, so she planned to talk to her to see if it would work.

Seeing that he had already arrived home, Meng Mingzhou had nothing to worry about. He nodded and walked home with the drowsy Su Chennan in his arms.

Su Ying grabbed Su Wan who wanted to go with her, "Sister, let's go back first."

"Ah."

Seeing that the door was open, Su Rui opened it and went in and called, "Auntie, are you home?"

Su Ya just came out of the kitchen, "Sister Rui'er, why are you here?"

Su Rui smiled, "Have you already made lunch? I'm here to find my aunt, isn't she here?"

Su Ya pointed to the backyard, "I haven't made lunch yet. I was just cleaning up the kitchen. My mother brought my elder brother, Chen Wen and Chen Cai to clean up the vegetable field in the backyard. Sister Rui, I'll take you there."

Su Rui nodded and followed Su Ya to the backyard.

"Auntie, are you busy?"

Wang raised her head and saw that it was Su Rui, she hurriedly got up and patted the dirt on her body, and walked up to her and asked, "Girl Rui, what do you need from me?"

Su Rui nodded, "Well, I have a job here. Qiaoer can't do it by herself, so I need to hire someone to do it. Would you like to do it? Five hundred yuan a month."

It's not that Su Rui is stingy and doesn't want to give more, and so far only applesauce and honey beans need to be boiled, and she doesn't feel tired.

Mrs. Wang was startled, and was stunned on the spot, without speaking for a long time, Su Rui thought she thought it was too little, so she hurriedly explained.

"This job is very simple. It only needs to be boiled every day, and it can be completed in half a day."

Wang came back to her senses and quickly waved her hands, "It's not that I don't think it's too little, I just didn't expect that what kind of work can have so much money a month, or is it five hundred Wen?"

She is just an ordinary woman, and she only earns more than one or two taels of silver for the cloth she spun all year round. She never imagined that she could have a job of five hundred coins a month.

Su Rui smiled, "If you think the salary is suitable, come to my house for breakfast tomorrow, and Qiaoer will teach you."

Mrs. Wang nodded sharply, five hundred Wen is not suitable, so how much silver is suitable?
"I'll go, I'll go early."

She was still worrying about it, the family only had a few acres of land, and they had to support four children. The eldest son, Chen Dong, was already at the age of engagement, so how could he settle without money?
Su Rui smiled, "It really doesn't have to be so early, come back after breakfast."

Mrs. Wang enthusiastically sent Su Rui out of the courtyard, turned around and went back to the backyard, where she saw her three sons and the little girl.

Su Ya approached happily and asked, "Mother, sister Rui'er really introduced you to a job?"

Mrs. Wang nodded, "Well, your mother, I will start earning money tomorrow."

Su Ya circled around Wang happily.
