Peasant girls seek happiness

The old lady said that there was no need to spend money, but she really couldn't just stew cabbage. Aunt Cheng's family also hired a woman who cooked and did chores. She took a bunch of copper coins and asked her to buy some meat and prepared four dishes.

Pork stewed vermicelli, pork stewed cabbage frozen tofu, sliced ​​meat fried salty cucumber, and one turned out to be fish-flavored shredded pork.

Aunt Cheng pointed to the fish-flavored shredded pork and said to the two: "Mother, try it, this is a new dish from the restaurant in our county. It tastes so good. It costs fifty yuan for a dish like this. Lang went to buy it."

The old lady glanced at Chu Qi, fifty Wen?If you sell [-] dishes, you can sell the money for buying the recipes.

Chu Qi secretly rolled her eyes, it seems that this recipe can't be sold so cheaply in the future, she thought about picking up a chopstick of vermicelli.

This is sweet potato powder, which is quite expensive, and the Cheng family like them don't buy it very much.

She has been in Gu Gu for half a year, and her father has eaten it a few times after being elected.

Cheng Liu ate the meat with a big mouthful, but Chu Qi ate the vermicelli very deliciously, Aunt Cheng said to her: "Chu Qi, eat meat, this vermicelli is not as delicious as meat."

Chu Qi knew that Aunt Cheng knew that they couldn't eat meat at home, so she specially made meat dishes.

But since she made a lot of money from embroidery and stalls, the old lady really didn't lose them. At that time, Xue Yunniang asked her specially: "Shouxiao can't eat meat, right?"

How can they be so particular about the countryside.Those big families are not allowed to go out because of their filial piety. If they don't go out, they will starve to death.

The old lady was hesitant to speak when she heard about it, but she still couldn't hold back and said quietly to the little girls: "It's logically impossible. When our old lady was gone, we didn't eat meat for a month..."

It was only three days until her father-in-law passed away.

It took three days to reach Mr. Cheng and Cheng Juren.

The old lady looked at her eldest daughter more kindly, and she put a piece of meat for her granddaughter, "You can eat it too. Although the family is not as good as before, but this past month, I have been making meat every now and then. It is not a big winter. You can't stand the cold even if you eat meat, and your brothers are still pointing fingers at them!"

Aunt Cheng saw that they were not short of meat, so she was really happy for her mother's family. She looked at Cheng Liu and said with some regret: "Mother, I'm afraid it's hard to say that Lao Liu's marriage has been delayed for such a long time. And Chun Xiao, I really should have given it to you back then." She made it."

He thought that Cheng Dazhong would be able to say something better, but he didn't expect that Cheng's family was completely reduced to a farmer, and it would not be so easy to say something better.

The old lady was not anxious, but now that Chunxiao was able to earn money by herself, she was not anxious to get married, so she let go of it slowly. Chu Qi was right: "Although our family has lost my father, we Work hard, the family will have the confidence to have money, it may not weaken those merchants. What's more, my brother is still studying, I dare not say anything else, there must be no problem with being a scholar."

Think about it too.

Mrs. Cheng no longer wants to "brilliant ancestors", as long as her family is safe and well, she will chant "Amitabha" if she doesn't lack clothes or clothes.

"It's okay for a boy to get married later. Chunxiao is not very old at that time, and it won't be too late to become a filial piety in the future. You can help pay attention on weekdays. If there is a suitable one, it will be fine."

Aunt Cheng nodded in response, but knew in her heart that it would be hard to find.

If the conditions are not good, she still feels sorry for her little sister's suffering. If the conditions are good, people will not look for her.

After all, the Cheng family is not what it used to be.

The old lady asked: "My second son moved into the city, have you been there? I went just now, why did I feel that all the furniture and bedding in his house were replaced with new ones? It's just that the furniture was left by others, and the bedding They have all been replaced with new ones, and they really look like people from the city..."

Aunt Cheng didn't look good either.

"I've been there twice, once when they first moved here, and once a few days ago."

Looking at the old lady's face, what she wanted to say earlier swirled on the tip of her tongue before swallowing it back.
"Mom, you don't care about them, they have separated anyway, and they can spend as much money as they want!"

Uncle Cheng interrupted: "Where does the second child get so much money?"

The old lady didn't say a word, Aunt Cheng gave him a glare, and gave the old lady another piece of meat: "Didn't you say that the house is for friends to see? I guess they don't want the bedding anymore, let him use it too!"

That was impossible, but Uncle Cheng received the wink and wisely said nothing.

The old lady sighed, "You're right, after the separation, he can do whatever he likes!"

After dinner, when the old lady was talking to Mrs. Gu and her granddaughter, Aunt Cheng and Chu Qi whispered in the front shop: "What did your grandma find?"

Chu Qi asked her back, "What did the aunt find?"

Cheng Liu leaned over, "Sister, is my second brother that?"

"What, what, what, what?" Aunt Cheng glanced at the two of them, thought for a while and said in a low voice, "Did your grandma find that there are several more people in your second uncle's house just now?"

"They said they were tenants. But we didn't look at the faces, and we didn't know how many people it was."

Aunt Cheng curled her lips, "Fart!"

Cheng Chuqi was curious, and looked at Sixth Uncle, a little surprised: "Isn't my Second Uncle's out-of-law family taking over the family?"

Aunt Cheng: "You know?"

The two nodded in unison, "Meet it!" Cheng Liu continued: "The fourth brother and the others went there before setting up the stall. The second brother and the second sister-in-law were fighting and arguing to divorce their wives. The second sister-in-law said that he was fascinated by the vixen." .”

Aunt Cheng pointed to the backyard: "What about our mother?"

"I don't know. I didn't tell her because I was afraid she would get angry."

Aunt Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, and said a little angrily: "I didn't expect your second brother to be such a person! Forget it, let's not talk about it, you should keep it a secret, your second brother told people that he was a tenant, but no one would know He has raised that girl for several years? She also gave birth to a son, and this time she has another one in her belly. It is also because the older one should go to school, and she made a fuss about entering your second brother's door! I am afraid it is also because of this , your second brother will get the family!"

When she found out, she ran and scolded the second child bloody. The second child drooped his face and said to her: "If you don't like me, then the two of us, siblings, just don't get along..."

At that time, she was so angry that her chest hurt and she took medicine for several days.

Later, she also thought about it, she is a married woman, and she is from a separated family, so if you don't have any contact, you don't have any contact!

The old lady came out without taking a lunch break after talking about the conversation, "It's almost there, your aunt probably should get up for a nap, sixth son, take me there!"

A few people were about to leave when the door of the shop opened, a few shoppers came in one after another, they avoided the side, the last one came in and saw them stunned, his eyes turned red, "Mother~"

The old lady frowned and then quickly relaxed, "Xia~ Are you here to buy something at your eldest sister's shop?"

Aunt Cheng, who was receiving guests, saw it and shouted: "Mother, I won't see you off. Xiaoxia, please wait for me first."

Third Aunt Cheng nodded with a blushing face, then looked at her mother and asked, "When did Mother come here? I have something to do with Eldest Sister."

When she said "I have something to do", she wished she could lower her head to the ground, and the old lady knew it. After thinking about it, she pulled her aside, "I care about your eldest sister borrowing money?"

Third Aunt Cheng's face was as red as bleeding, and her voice was so soft that you couldn't hear it unless you listened carefully, "My husband hasn't been home for ten days, and the family has been out of food for two days..."
