fisherwoman

Chapter 23

Involuntarily, Shen dragged Lin Xueman into Xiao Chengshan's courtyard.

Seeing Mrs. Yu sitting on the ground sobbing, Mrs. Shen exclaimed: "Oh, my God, sister-in-law, why are you sitting on the ground! What a big deal! Why are you arguing like this!"

She let go of Lin Xueman's hand, stepped forward to pull Yu Shi up, and dragged her into the room.

"That's right, big brother, don't be angry, what have you seen with girls? Didn't your parents care too?" Xiao Chenghai frowned at the side and persuaded. He was half a head shorter than Xiao Chengshan, and looked lean and capable.

"All of you, don't you feel that your life is not lively enough? Isn't it just a little bit of trouble when you go home? How dare you open that mouth?" Xiao Chengshan stood up, sighed, and said, "Second brother, this It's just that the two of them are looking for trouble anyway, and when dad comes back, let them go to the old house and stay with their parents."

"Brother, you can't say that. What they said is not unreasonable. What has the third child done for this family all these years? Is it wrong to ask him to pay some money for such a big event as going home to worship the ancestors?" Xiao Xiao Cheng Hai looked at Lin Xueman and said disapprovingly.

It is to let this woman know that if she becomes a relative and establishes her own family, she must assume the responsibility of a family.

"Second brother, what are you talking about with the ladies? Isn't the money for ancestor worship always paid by our two families? Why is it different this year?" Xiao Chengshan looked at him strangely, no wonder their family didn't quarrel. There was no movement on the ground, so it turned out that the couple had the same meaning!

Lin Xueman listened quietly, and gradually understood in her heart that the two of them, except Xiao Chengshan, Xiao Chenghai and Yu Shi, believed that they should take the money.

She thought for a while, then went straight to the two brothers, and said word by word: "Brother and brother, stop arguing, how much should we pay for this money, you tell me the amount, and I will send it to you right away." .”

The two brothers were stunned for a moment when they heard the words, they obviously didn't expect that the third daughter-in-law would be such a straightforward person!

"This matter, this matter, let's talk about it!" Xiao Chengshan didn't have the nerve to look up at her, and muttered.

"Actually, this matter! Brother and sister, to put it bluntly, the key is not the matter of money, but this matter is a matter of the Xiao family. As the Xiao family, you should do your best, right?" When it came to this point, Xiao Chenghai naturally couldn't help it. He would miss this opportunity, and his voice softened a lot.

In the room, Shen Shi and Yu Shi looked at each other and smiled, then they leaned on the window again and looked out.

"Second brother, in the final analysis, this matter is all about money." Lin Xueman smiled at him, stroked Qiaoling's hair, and said, "I said we will pay the money, and we will definitely pay it. , I see if the money in the family is enough, if it is enough, I will send it to you."

"If in previous years, one or two taels of silver was enough for each family to offer sacrifices to the ancestors, plus the expenses for traveling and horses, but this year they went back to repair the grave, so they had to add one or two taels of silver. Calculated, each family paid two or two taels of silver is enough." Xiao Chenghai pondered After a while, the number was finally reported, "If my brother and sister have the heart, two liang of silver will be enough."

"Okay, two taels is just two taels, and I'll send them to you later." Lin Xueman responded readily, if two taels of silver can solve the problem, then that's fine.

For this little money, I have been arguing for a long time, and I am so annoying!

Standing not far from the gate, Xu Yuanqi frowned when he heard the voices inside, and turned and left in a hurry when he heard the knock on the gate.

Until Lin Xueman sent the money over.

There were smiles on the faces of Shen Shi and Yu Shi. This Xiao Chenghai was really scheming. Even if it was to build a grave, it would not cost so much at all....

The sister-in-law made up their minds and sent Lin Xueman a basket full of small yellow croakers that their husband had just caught, saying that it was for her to try something new.

Since this sister-in-law is not stingy, they should also show their attitude!

Looking at the basket of small fish, Lin Xueman was filled with emotion, this is two taels of silver!

However, it seems to be good, and the sister-in-law has started to move around!

I can’t eat so many fish all at once, and there is no refrigerator, so how do I store them?

That's only dried!

The whole afternoon, Lin Xueman sat in the yard and fiddled with the basket of small fish. These fish were too small, about two inches long, and the biggest one was only three inches.

She took scissors to cut off the head of the fish, then removed the internal organs, fetched water again, washed them carefully, put them in a basin, sprinkled some salt to marinate them for a while, and found a needle and thread to string them one by one Get up and hang out in the yard.

After packing these up, it's already dark!

She beat her back, feeling so sore, she didn't even bother to eat.

Xiao Yun walked in and saw that the yard was full of small fishes drying in the air, he bent down with a smile: "Sister-in-law, where did you get so many small fishes, and they are so delicately packed, such small fishes are not good. It’s worth the money, we pour it directly on the stones to dry it, then dry it and grind it into powder, then mix it in the grain and feed it to chickens and pigs.”

"It was given by my sister-in-law and the others. Why can't this fish be eaten?" Lin Xueman's face was filled with black lines. How dare he think that this fish was fed to the livestock?Speechless!

"Let me just say! What kind of good fish can they give you! This fish is not edible, but it is too troublesome to clean up. It is more convenient to dry it directly and feed it to livestock." Xiao Yun carefully looked at the fish on the thin thread. Xiaoyu, you are so patient after tidying up!

"Big sister, after I dry these fish for a day, I'll make you dry-stir-fried small yellow croakers, I guarantee you'll want to eat them again." Lin Xueman dried her hands, smelled them, oh my god!There was still a fishy smell, so I ran into the house to wash my hands again.

"Okay! Third sister-in-law's craftsmanship can't be wrong, by the way, third sister-in-law, did you give the money to elder brother and the others?" Xiao Yun followed up and asked.

"Yes! As long as you can calm things down, that's fine." Lin Xueman sighed lightly, looking at the empty money bag on the bed, if Xiao Chengyu came back and asked, how should he answer?

"Sister-in-law three, my mother is a little angry. If she says something about you, don't take it to heart! After all, you are her real daughter-in-law..." Xiao Yun hesitated a bit.

She always felt that her mother always seemed to be a little bit wrong in front of the two daughters-in-laws, and she easily refused to use the posture of a mother-in-law to suppress the daughter-in-laws.

This time, her mother's answer to the two sisters-in-law was to wait until her father came back to discuss it, but before her father came back, the third sister-in-law actually gave the money to the elder brother and the others on her own initiative.

"Mother is angry?" Lin Xueman's heart sank suddenly, it seems that money can't solve everything, calm down one end, and provoke another end, but what should I do!

The night fell, and under the dim light, while she was mending the torn clothes for Xiao Chengyu, she was anxiously waiting for him to come back. Without his consent, she gave the money to her eldest brother and the others on her own initiative. After knowing, will you strangle yourself?

Or, what if he treats himself like that again?

No, he was just angry for a while, and didn't really want to be rough on her. Intuitively, this Xiao Chengyu was not that kind of person.She consoled herself.
