Fertile land

Chapter 70

Li Ergou limped along the roadside outside the village, walked to the river, and finally found what he wanted...

Seeing a big corn thief in the field next to Zhao's house by the river, he quickly took out the bag in his arms, broke it open and put it in.

I was hiding in the cornfield and breaking off the second corn cob when I heard footsteps.

He was so frightened that he hid and saw through the gap that Li Sanmao and his father and elder brother were walking past the intersection beside him in a hurry.

Several people returned along the original path and went up the mountain.

It seems that everyone is carrying a basket, a pestle, or a fork on his back, and a sickle is stuck in his waist.

"What are you doing?" His eyes flashed, hum!He knew that Li Sanmao was not telling the truth.

He quickly found a place to hide the corn in the grass by the river, followed them all the way up the mountain.

Luo Zhi'er didn't have dinner. She went to the kitchen to take a look and opened the lid of the pot. There was blackened corn paste stuck to the bottom of the pot again...

The sour soup was just dry soup, and she and my wife couldn't even bear to give them two more slices of sauerkraut, let alone oil and gas flowers...

I lost my appetite when I saw it, so I put the contents in the pot, found a wooden basin, heated some hot water in the stove, and washed myself and Miaomiao clean. After running all day, my whole body was soaked with sweat.

She even smelled the strange smell herself.

I also washed my own hair and Miao Miao's. After washing, I changed into fresh clothes and went out. I took a small stool and sat in the corner of the courtyard to comb my hair and enjoy the evening breeze.

Although the yard is dilapidated, I can sit here and rest for a while, smelling the fragrance of orchids and not feel too comfortable...

Luo Zhi'er was afraid that Miao Miao would catch a cold, so she found a towel and wiped Miao Miao's hair. She saw that the holes on it were broken one after another, and they were almost like threads...

Thinking that she would change a towel next time, Miaomiao squinted her eyes in enjoyment, "Mom, it's so comfortable!"

She nuzzled in her mother's arms affectionately. She was really tired today, and her mother made her feel so comfortable that she didn't want to get up.

Luo Zhi'er saw her acting coquettishly and chuckled, "Of course, people must be clean to feel comfortable."

"Miaomiao must not make herself dirty in the future..."

Mrs. Zhou couldn't help but cursed at the door of the hall with her triangular eyes hanging.

She held it back for a while, because she had brought another blind bear to the family.

But...she can see that she doesn't want her mother to be comfortable...

Shouldn't we be crying when we come back with no food to eat?The two of them were smiling and didn't beg her. The triangle eyes felt like there were needles in their eyes.

"Wash, wash, don't pick up the firewood for love, don't pick up the water? A tank of water is used up to the bottom, no matter how clean you are, you are still covered in fat. How can you think you can become a fairy..."

Luo Zhi'er stood up and glanced at her, "Mom, Sanmao originally picked this water this morning. Sanmao and I also picked up firewood before. Shouldn't Miaomiao and I use it?"

"What should I do? My son picked this? Then I will have control over the firewood collected, so why do you enjoy it?"

Cursing secretly: Damn fat hooves, why didn't that blind bear eat you? Or just take a lick, and come back to make her angry.

Looking at Miaomiao again, she is fair and pure, which is very unpleasant to the eyes. The two of them are virtuous and know how to enjoy themselves!
"He is my man, Miaomiao's father. We and I came back from running around for a day. Is it a pleasure to use the water he carried?"

"That's not!"

"Well, since you said it can't be used, then you and I can go to the house of the village chief Murakami to talk things over!"

"Where are you going? Who will go with you!" Mrs. Zhou was choked by her and could not speak, staring blankly.

She turned around and entered the house, and with a "bang!" the door to the room where she slept was closed!
Luo Zhi'er didn't like to take advantage of her. The main reason was that he didn't want to be in the same place with her and didn't want to accept her words. He stood up and tied Miaomiao's hair with a flower, and ran to the kitchen to pick out the bucket.

"Let's go, Miaomiao, go fetch water with mother!" Take Miaomiao to fetch water, just in time to lose weight...

On the way, she met Little Zhou who was returning with Yunliang Muqing. Little Zhou's face was sallow, and she was startled when she saw Luo Zhi'er.She didn't know why she was hostile to Luo Zhi'er from the beginning, and besides, she had often provoked Zhou in front of her and gave her little shoes to wear...

Seeing her at this time, I felt a little embarrassed. I thought of the Xuan brush and ink paper that Li Daqiang brought into the house last night, as well as Liu Liu's hair flower, which gave me an indescribable smell.

She knew she should say a word of thanks, but she just couldn't. Moreover, she could actually make money under such conditions, but she failed to do so.

From now on, it would be even harder for her to survive in this family, because she couldn't tell whether it was gratitude, resentment, or jealousy.

Looking at her, she still had the same coarse clothes and linen, and her fat and bloated figure. I couldn't tell what was different. There was a strong confidence in her bones.

What makes her envious is that no matter what she looks like, Li Sanmao always protects her.

There is also Miao Miao on the side, who was obviously the same as Liu Liu before, but now her eyes are bright and clean, with pink flowers on her hair, she has the innocent appearance of a child.

"Auntie, are you feeling better?"

Miaomiao greeted her, but she remained silent as usual...

Looking at Liu Liu beside him, he still looked rigid, low-pressure, and lifeless.

Although she refused to admit it in front of others and herself, she was indeed jealous and envious.

Little Zhou didn't say hello, and just looked at Luo Zhi'er coldly, but Mu Qing unexpectedly said hello: "Sister Aunt San, are you and sister Miaomiao going to fetch water?"

"Yes, Mu Qing, Yunliang, where did you go to play?"

"Liu Liu went too?"

Liu Liu shrank her neck and moved behind Xiao Zhou.

"Go to the big millstone in the village."

Mu Qing picked up the notebook and pen in his hand and compared them with her, deliberately showing them off.

Yun Liang hid the painted rice paper behind his back and looked at her with a dirty look on his face.

Luo Zhi'er noticed their little moves. Don't show off when a little kid gets something. It's understandable that he is eager to study...

Miaomiao still held the water ladle in her hand and said crisply: "Liu Liu, my mother and I went to pick mushrooms today. Do you want to go tomorrow?"

Liuliu wanted to go very much, but her father said that her mother was not feeling well and that she should stay at home to watch Mu Qing Yunliang and take care of her mother these days.

Although Liuliu is a younger sister, she is quite sensible compared to the two boys. She looked at her mother.

Little Zhou's face was a little gloomy: "What do you think I'm going to do? You can go if you want!"

After saying that, he walked away from her.

Liu Liu hurriedly followed without saying a word, and so did Mu Qing Yunliang.

"San Auntie, goodbye!"

Mu Qing walked a few steps and turned back to say hello to her!

This kid Mu Qing, the last time his mother was beaten, she ran to the village chief to save his mother. She thought this kid was quite smart.

Xiao Zhou is right to let them study. If they are well educated, they should be good.

She was not at ease about Xiao Zhou's attitude. Can you pray that for someone like her, she would have a conscience to be grateful to you?

Maybe she stabbed you in the back that day. She would rather she treated you coldly like this. She supported Mu Qingyunliang's studies, not to please her.

There is no gain in trying to please her.
