The peasant girl who escaped the famine: pick up the leak and pick up a prince

Chapter 116
Yu Maimai took his two daughters-in-law, each carrying a basket, bypassed the village, and headed straight for the back mountain.

Su Qiaoer was stimulated last time, and was about to go to the latrine, but saw Yu Maimai carrying two daughter-in-laws up the back mountain with baskets on their backs, so she made a plan and ran back immediately.

"Mother, you promised me last time that you would deal with this woman. Just now I saw that Widow Zhang brought her two daughters-in-law up the mountain, carrying two baskets, as if she was trying to steal other people's sweet potatoes?"

Mrs. Han is sitting at the door, mending the curtain. In autumn, the wind is strong, and the curtain is being torn. The curtain of the Han family has been used for several years, but the family is quite nervous, and even the money for food is scarce. No, where can I get the money to buy the door curtain, so I have to continue patching and patching.

"Oh, my hand, what are you making such a fuss about, the needle pricked my hand." He pressed his finger to his mouth and sucked.

"Mother, when I went to the latrine just now, I also saw Widow Zhang bringing her two daughters-in-law up the mountain, and her two daughter-in-laws were carrying two baskets?"

Mrs. Han pondered for a while: "Go to the back mountain, what is there on the back mountain, a few days ago she went to the back mountain to open up wasteland, now I go to the mountain today, what delicious food is there on the mountain Can't it?"

Li Zheng walked over, put down the shovel in his hand, sighed and said: "What's going on, don't you guys have nothing to do, are you talking about other people's affairs like scumbags, isn't this We haven't eaten yet, why don't we cook?"

Just as she was about to eat, Han had no choice but to walk into the kitchen, babbling: "I don't know how hungry I am all day, and I yelled to eat as soon as I entered the door, really."

Han stretched her arms, kneaded the dough on the chopping board vigorously, and said, "Okay, if we eat, go to the mountain to see what this widow is doing on the mountain? What good things are there on the mountain at this time? Really, but this widow always makes some money out of nowhere, and picks up some good things out of nowhere, I heard that she went up the mountain to collect some rare medicinal materials, and exchanged a lot of money in the town?"

After eating, Mrs. Han came to the back mountain, and vaguely found that Yu Maimai was lying on the tree, shaking the tree vigorously, and Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Ning were picking up something under the tree with their heads down.

"Oh, what's going on here? Mother, what are they shaking on the tree? What is there on the tree? There are so many. Look, those two daughters-in-law are so happy, isn't it Xingzi? ?”

"These are wild apricots, they can't be eaten. What do they do with them?" Han was suspicious, and hurried forward to ask.

But Su Qiaoer grabbed her: "Mother, if you go like this, how can you tell others? If Widow Zhang knows that we are following them, wouldn't it be hard for us to tell?"

Han shook his arm: "What do you know, come with me and see what I have to say?"

Han stepped forward to say hello with a smile: "Oh, her aunt, what are you doing? I just came to weed in the wasteland. I saw you, so I stopped by to say hello."

Yu Maimai smiled awkwardly: "Oh, let's go, we went up the mountain to pick these wild fruits. People can't eat these things, but our pig likes to eat them. I brought some back last time. Stealing to eat, rushing to eat, I wanted to get back some for pigs to eat, anyway, pigs also want to eat."

Yu Maimai couldn't help but sneered, why did she move her own pig out? She was just annoyed that the Han family followed her here, and even made an excuse that she went up the mountain to weed in the wasteland. It's about to open up wasteland, and I don't have any tools in my hand. I just went up the mountain to weed the grass. If I tell the ghosts, the ghosts don't want to believe it?
Han's face turned green. Why did this widow speak so excessively? Knowing that she compared herself to a pig, she thought she was a fool, but said that their pigs were eating secretly. It was not obvious that she was humiliating us. ?

But in terms of face, I can't be so straightforward. I looked at Su Qiaoer and said, "Look, you are the one who wants to come. Now, listen to how this woman satirizes us?"

Su Qiaoer didn't know whether it was really stupid or fake stupid, she spread her hands out: "Mother, Widow Zhang said her pig, how do you know that she is talking about us, if you don't believe me, let's go up and ask."

Han Shi was so angry with Su Qiaoer that she almost vomited blood, why did she give birth to such a stupid daughter?
Yu Maimai's face was full of red, seeing that the basket was full, he said with a smile: "Okay, let's go back. I heard that the wolves, tigers and leopards in the back mountain are all out at this time. We are still here this morning." Go down the mountain, last time, a woman in Qingshanzui heard that she was working in the field at noon, but she was eaten by a leopard and left with an arm, what a tragedy."

When Han heard this, her whole body trembled, she glanced at Su Qiaoer, said with a smile: "Well, since it's noon, let's go back together."

Yu Maimai glanced at Han Shi: "What's the matter, you don't stay to pull weeds?"

"No, no, it's time for us to eat, go back early and cook for my old man, and start clamoring again after eating late."

Su Qiaoer pulled Han Shi and said, "Mother, didn't we just eat when we came out? Dad wouldn't be hungry so fast?"

Mrs. Han glared at her, but Su Qiaoer stopped talking at this time.

When she got home, Mrs. Zhang asked curiously, "Mother, why do you say that pigs like to eat apricots?"

"If I don't say that, do we still have our share of the apricots in the back mountain? Also, this woman of the Han family just wants to know what we use the apricots for. Today I said that the apricots are fed to pigs. Presumably, it has passed How long, she will definitely find an excuse to come to my house, by the way, to see if our pigs will eat apricots."

"Well, what should I do? If this woman comes to the house to watch, then what should I do if pigs don't eat apricots?"

The corners of Yu Maimai's mouth rose, and he sneered: "Oh, how simple this matter is, go now, take out some apricots from the basket, pour them into a pot and cook them, and let the pigs eat them. I don't believe that the cooked things will be eaten by pigs." eat?"

"Oh, mother, what a great idea, my daughter-in-law is so stupid, why didn't she think of this way?"

Just as Mrs. Zhang cooked the apricots and poured them into the pig trough, she heard Mrs. Han yelling at the door: "Auntie, is she there? The weather is nice today, now sometimes we go for a run together."

Sure enough, this Han family came, in the name of running together.
