Dressed as a villain's wife

Chapter 23
After the dog woke up, he got out of bed and ran to the backyard. He was relieved to see the mussels staying in the basin.

It just dreamed that the clam had grown two legs and ran away, and it couldn't catch up no matter how hard it tried.

Thinking about it, the dog poked it again with a stick. The clam felt something was poking itself, and immediately took away the exposed soft meat and closed the clam shell, revealing a few small beads underneath. He reached out to pick it up, looked at it, and quickly took it to find Nanzhi.

"Aniang, Aniang, the clam has a baby."

Nan Zhi was rummaging through the utility room next door, trying to find something useful, when he saw the dog running towards him holding something in one hand.

Reaching out to hug the dog that was running over, Nan Zhi asked: "What's the matter, dog, why are you running in such a hurry?"

Gou'er spread out his wet little hands, revealing those round and smooth beads, "Mother, mother, the river clam has a baby."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand towards Nanzhi so that she could see more clearly.

Gou'er was holding five round pearls in his hand, so surprised that Nan Zhi almost dropped his eyes.

I opened dozens of mussels and didn't have a single bead. How could there be five of the mussels pulled back by the dog?
When he looked at the dog again, Nan Zhi felt that his whole body, this cheap son, was shining brightly.

Could this be the Holy Light of the Emperor of Europe?

"Auntie, what's the matter with you?"

Gou'er was a little puzzled looking at his envious mother, and touched Nan Zhi's forehead with his other small hand.

In the end, the dog only came to one conclusion: "Mother, you are sick."

"..."

Looking at her silly son Nanzhi felt sad for a moment, she almost shed tears of envy.

"Gou'er, this is called Pearl, not a baby of a mussel." Nan Zhi could only explain to Gou'er.

Hearing what Nan Zhi said, Gou'er was obviously a little disappointed. Seeing that the beads in his hand had lost the excitement just now, he only said a little disappointed: "Then we can't raise them to eat meat."

Nanzhi didn't expect Gou'er's words. She was silent for a while and touched Gou'er's head, thinking that she could tell him the value of pearls: "Pearls can be sold, and they can buy a lot of food."

Hearing that it can be sold to buy grain, Gou'er was happy again, and stretched out his hand to hand all the pearls to Nan Zhi, "Then go and sell the pearls, buy grain and go home."

Looking at the dog's sensible appearance, Nanzhi sighed in his heart, who wouldn't like such a child?

"Be good, dog, let's keep that mussel in the backyard at home, and see if it will have pearls in the future, okay?"

"Well, the dog watched it."

The dog seemed to have accepted some very important task, so he ran to take a small stool and stood by the side of the tub, watching intently, as if he was afraid of missing something.

Seeing the serious look of the dog, Nan Zhi only asked him to hide under the eaves and watch, so as not to be exposed to the sun.

After that, I went into the utility room and continued to clean up.

When eating mussels today, she remembered the scallop porridge that her grandmother had cooked for her before. Can the scallops of mussels be dried and stored?

The staple food is easy to find, but winter will come in a few months, she and the dog can't just eat potatoes and black noodles every day, and there are no greenhouse vegetables here, let alone burn charcoal to grow vegetables in the house...

If she catches more mussels now and cooks the meat sticks to dry, even if there are no fresh vegetables in the future, even if it is boiled black batter, it will be more delicious.

As for the five pearls that Gou'er brought, they could be exchanged for a few taels of silver, and it was not a problem to buy food for the two of them.

But in winter, we have to have quilts and thick jackets at home. Because two old people in the family were sick, Yuanshen also sold the new quilts at home. Last winter, both of them survived on an old quilt. .

Nan Zhi was thinking carefully about the missing items at home, when there was a knock on the door suddenly.

With what happened last night, Nanzhi didn't dare to open the door directly, but stood in front of the door and shouted outside.

"Who?"

"Fatty, it's me."

Hearing this address, Nan Zhi wondered who it was, but besides his two older brothers, who else could it be?
"Big Brother and Second Brother?" Nanzhi opened the door, but he was still a little puzzled: "Why are you here?"

Didn't I just go back to my mother's house in the morning?Why did they come again this afternoon?

Lin Yicheng looked at his younger sister and smiled, stretched out his hand and patted her on the head before saying: "Why, now even the eldest brother and the second brother are not allowed to enter the house?"

Only then did Nan Zhi come back to his senses, he turned sideways to let them in, and asked with some concern: "Brother, why are you here? What's going on at home?"

"What can I do at home, just go to the town to buy food, Auntie asked us to bring you some."

Lin Yicheng entered the house empty-handed, and Lin Ercheng was speechless seeing that his elder brother didn't come out to help him, so he followed him in with a bag of things in one hand.

Looking at the two swollen bags on the ground, Nan Zhi was still a little surprised. He only sent the food back this morning, and his mother asked her two brothers to bring the food in the afternoon?

Lin Yicheng felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by his sister with doubts, and then explained: "We went to the town this morning to see, and now the food price is rising rapidly, and my father said that there is no hope for this year's autumn harvest. We have stockpiled a lot of food at home, and Aniang said let us send you some black noodles and old rice."

Lin Ercheng pointed to a bag to show Nanzhi the red mark on it, and then said: "Auntie said, the dog still has a weak stomach and it's not good to eat too much black flour. This bag is old rice. You cook some porridge or something for him on weekdays."

As if he was worried that Nanzhi would not accept it, Lin Ercheng comforted him again: "Auntie asked us to bring it, and you can accept it. The family is fine. If you have any problems, come to the branch and ask, the eldest brother and the second brother can help you." Help out."

Nanzhi felt that the tip of his nose was a little sore after being told by the two men, and tried his best not to let the tears fall: "I'm fine here, don't worry about me."

"No matter what, you are the youngest one in the family, so what's the embarrassment with your two older brothers?"

Lin Yicheng only thought that his sister was embarrassed.

Seeing the emptiness in the yard, Lin Ercheng also felt a little uncomfortable.

In the past, my sister was the best married woman in the village. In just five years, how did she become what she is now? Since she came back last time and borrowed money, she hasn’t returned home, and the family only treats her as her life. It's passable, looking at the yard now, it doesn't look like it did when I sent my relatives here.

"Fat girl, why don't you follow us home."

Before Nan Zhi could speak, there was a knock on the door.

"Widow Lin! Come out!"

Hearing those words, the two men of the Lin family immediately turned black. They only thought that their sister had a hard life, but they never thought that they would be scolded by others.

"You little slut! Open the door for me if you have the guts!" The person knocking on the door outside the courtyard was none other than the Wu family next door.

Last night, when her mother-in-law went back to the house, she thought she was fine, but she was picked up by her own man and beaten up this morning.

She begged her mother-in-law for mercy, but the mother-in-law said that her father-in-law was bitten by a poisonous snake because she took her to Dongshan, and she wanted Li Tian to divorce her.

She is now in her 30s, if she is really divorced, how can she have the face to go back to her mother's house?

Isn't it because of the money that the mother-in-law asked Li Tian to divorce her?As long as she asks Lin for money, her mother-in-law will definitely calm down.

Thinking about it, she ran to knock on the door.
