Fertile land

Chapter 31

Li Sanmao put his basket on his back and went to the village early with Luo Zhi'er where they took the bullock cart to wait.

You can also stop directly at the intersection, but it is just to grab a seat.

Otherwise, Luo Zhi'er's body would be shaky all the way, and her whole body would start to ache even before she reached the town...

Li Sanmao was mainly worried that Luo Zhi'er would feel uncomfortable standing...

He also brought her one of his worn-out cotton-padded clothes to pad her buttocks...

When we arrived under the grinding wheel for grinding corn under the big locust tree, there was no one there yet.

Li Sanmao put down his backpack, put a cotton padded coat on her, and the two of them sat together...

The two of them were the first to arrive. They looked at the horizon and saw that half of the moon had not yet set...

Luo Zhi'er took a breath of fresh air, and there were birds chirping in the dark branches of the big locust tree. It felt really good, and it felt like getting up early to read in the modern era...

The two of them had never been alone together like this before. Luo Zhi'er took out the pancakes baked last night to fill his stomach...

She also brought some honey water. This is the last time she kept some for herself...

She also took out one and took a bite with great effort. Each mouthful had a crescent moon. The cornmeal was cold and hard and rough.

In her opinion, it is better to feed the pigs, mainly because she may have to run a lot today, and she is afraid that she will not have enough energy...

Just stick to it and finish it!
Her body is actually a bit strange. She gets hungry even if she doesn't eat. She is so hungry that she feels dizzy...

This is also the reason why Luo Zhi'er is obese, and she found that it seems a little difficult for her to lose weight...

Just like the kind of person who has a very slow metabolism in the new city, she has tried not to eat anything at night for the past two days. She has been working and exercising during the day, hiking and so on, and it seems that nothing has changed.

She comforted herself that maybe the time was too short.

She planned to go to the drug store to see the doctor when she got some money!
Maybe let the doctor prescribe some medicine and adjust it, and it will be fine!

"Hey, who is this? You came so early?"

A slightly harsh woman's voice sounded, and the two of them looked back, and Li Sanmao recognized the blurry figure, "God's mother, it's you. Are you going to the town to go to the market too?"

"No, it turns out it's a couple of Sanmao who are stealing words here! Who do I think they are? This early in the morning!"

Luo Zhi'er saw that she had a small square scarf wrapped around her head and was wearing a small floral-shaped dark blue coat. Why did these words sound so offensive?
"The sun is out in the west, and your parents have agreed to let your wife go to town with you to play? What are you going to sell?"

Gou Sheng's mother asked curiously.

Li Sanmao felt a little embarrassed.
"Yeah, I have something to do today. I have to go to town to sell some things!"

Gou Sheng's mother poked her neck and saw that the backpack was covered, "Haha, let Auntie take a look, I won't tell anyone..."

It's possible to make a living these days, but it's a big deal. I don't know what I'm pretending to be with this big bag on my back.

"What can we have? San Mao has hunted some meat before and asked me to take it to the town to sell the smoked and dried meat."

Luo Zhi'er added.

"Is that so..."

Gou Shengniang held her mouth shut.

"What the hell are you going to sell?"

Luo Zhi'er pretended to inquire.

"What can I sell? Some side dishes from home..."

He immediately covered the bamboo basket in his hand...

His eyes rolled,
"Haha, it's good to be able to hunt. Look, we people sell some vegetables from our gardens, but we can't even make a few bucks for the whole day!"

"Sanmao, why don't you take your uncle to help you hunt next time, and you can give him a few pieces of meat when he falls..."

"Haha, auntie is joking. Hunting is a labor of life. Sanmao comes back with injuries every day. He almost lost his life before! Sanmao really can't afford this!"

"That's true!"

Gou Shengniang was speechless and had nothing to say. She remembered that it happened, but she also made a note in her heart.

After a while, many villagers who were going to the market gathered here. You looked at me and said hello...

Some were carrying chickens, ducks and geese, and some were carrying bamboo baskets with some poultry eggs in them...

There are also those who sell sweet potatoes, potatoes, dried vegetables, and those who make some food and take them to the town to sell... The rural women are chattering and asking each other what the other is selling.

Then Zhao's second daughter-in-law, Aunt Huaihua, also came. Seeing Luo Zhi'er's face turn, "Hey, Sanmao, are you going to town too?"

"Yes, Aunt Huaihua."

"Going to sell wild game again, or...what?"

Before Li Sanmao could speak, Gou Sheng's mother beside him said, "Who are you if I don't tell you what I'm selling?"

Duplicitous.

"You bitch, you don't know how to speak well, why did you eat explosives so early in the morning?"

"What kind of explosives are you eating? Am I right? Why should I tell you what I'm selling? You're not his father and mother. Or maybe he's hiding something secretly!"

The people next to you listened to your words and his words with open ears.

Luo Zhi'er can't bear this bad temper anymore.
"Aunt Gou Sheng, if you haven't brushed your teeth when you got up in the morning, don't spray the smell randomly. It'll be bad for the rest of you!"

"What do you say?"

Gou Sheng's mother's face was flushed, and she was so suppressed that she was so red, "I didn't say anything, I just said who didn't brush their teeth when they got up in the morning and breathed out bad smell!"

"you!"

There was a burst of laughter around...

"Tuk Tuk Tuk!"

It was Zhao Maogen driving the bullock cart. It was already bright and the place was full of people.

"Uncle Maogen, you are here!"

"Haha, you've been waiting for a long time, come on up!"

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone got on the bullock cart in a swarm. When Luo Zhi'er waited for her to get on, everyone was crowded. She was fat, and there was no room for her to join...

"Tch, I don't know what kind of virtue I am because of my fatness. This car will collapse under your weight..."

Indeed, the car has been shaking since she got in, making it feel like it was falling apart...

She also felt red-faced, embarrassed, and a little embarrassed...

"Zhi'er, sit here."

Li Sanmao had already found a spot and occupied it. He spread out his cotton clothes and called her over.

"Oh, Sanmao is really considerate to your fat wife."

Aunt Cuihua joked.

"I'm talking about Sanmao, if your wife puts her big ass in this car and takes up a few seats, the car will fall apart..."

The words didn't sound nice, but they were true. Zhao Maogen looked embarrassed and was too embarrassed to say anything.

Luo Zhi'er thought for a while, "I'm sorry to cause trouble to everyone, Sanmao, why don't you go to town first with your backpack on your back, and I'll come from behind."

After saying that, he turned around and got out of the car!Walking towards the road towards town…

She had to go to the town, and there was no other way but to walk. Fortunately, the town was not too far away. There was a five or six mile road that she could walk to.

Li Sanmao felt a little distressed when he saw his wife struggling to get out of the car. He quickly picked up the basket and said, "Daughter-in-law, wait a minute..."

Then I got off the bullock cart...

Originally, the people in the car were joking and a little worried, but they didn't expect that Luo Zhi'er was so kind and got out of the car and walked...

I felt a little sorry for a moment...

Watching the bullock cart go away, Luo Zhi'er asked Li Sanmao: "Why did you get down? Carrying a backpack is very heavy. There will be bloody marks on your shoulders and your arms will hurt for several days!"

Li Sanmao smiled, his wife was still as kind as before.

"It's okay, as long as I'm with you, I won't feel tired no matter what!"

Luo Zhi'er was secretly moved and envious. I couldn't tell if it was the envy of Luo Zhi'er in the past, but it felt sad anyway...
