Ugly peasant girl in space

Chapter 16 Visiting Aunt Mo Six
"The conditions at home..."

Mo Laoliu lowered his head and felt a little ashamed. He had a lot of energy, and he was looking for work in the town all day, and he didn't care about his family. The two acres of Susukida were planted by his daughter-in-law with a disease. Down, the body was very weak, and the family was nervous a while ago, so they cut off the soup secretly. When he found out, the son cried and said that his mother passed out several times, this time it took too long, so I was afraid.

But in order to see a doctor for his daughter-in-law, the older brothers and sisters in the family didn’t pay much attention to him. At the beginning, they borrowed two or three hundred wen, but most of them have not been repaid after working hard. It's okay, no, this time the daughter-in-law fainted and sent to the town, it was the father who took out the coffin book.

"Every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite."

Mo Laoliu had to go to the town to work and was in a hurry, so he didn't say much, but Mrs. Liu was very impressed. Although the child's father was a scholar, he didn't have any source of income. The whole family lived on two acres of land and Shuxiu. Barely making ends meet, she won’t be able to eat meat for a few months. She just wanted to save, and then save, so that she can save a penny for the big and small ones to catch up with the exam. She felt a little ashamed of her baby, but fortunately, the eldest son is quite sensible now, and I heard that in addition to writing letters, he can also help write recipes for restaurants in the town, and can also earn some money, which happens to be saved for the future exams. Seeing that Shiwu should talk about marriage, but there are only three rooms in the house, and there is no room for them.

"Girl Li, our hen has laid eggs again, and there are about ten more. You can go back and send ten to your sixth aunt Mo."

Mrs. Liu gritted her teeth. Now her family's conditions have improved a little bit. Li girl also said that picking wild chrysanthemums can be exchanged for some copper coins. After all, the sixth son of the Mo family is also the cousin of his child's father. People from the village, besides, before Qingli was unconscious, the sixth daughter-in-law also came to see her.

"Mom, then I'll send the things when I get home. By the way, I'll send the cakes and big bones to the uncle's house."

Qingli nodded, not that she is the Holy Mother, but just a few eggs, the folks rely on this, and they are relatives, so they have never asked her for anything in such a difficult situation, and she is honest and responsible, so The family is also worthy of deep friendship.

In ancient times, the interests of the clan were particularly emphasized, and relatives were all hugged together. When a family had something to do, they would come to a group of people as soon as they called out. Unlike modern society, people always hide their minds when dealing with people, and make all kinds of excuses for things. At this time, most people are still very honest.

"Our Li girl is really sensible."

Mrs. Liu boasted that being a mother is like letting her children eat a few more mouthfuls of eggs to make up for it, but some favors can't be ignored. The child's father has a good reputation in the clan, and there is hope to become the head of the clan in the future. However, his father-in-law was not welcome, he separated the family early, and got nothing. The mother-in-law was still sick because of her hard work, and she felt a little bit resentful towards his elder brother, that is, Grandpa Qingli's family.

The mother and daughter walked along the path for nearly an hour. Just when Qingli felt that her leg was about to break, they finally arrived at their small courtyard. Poking his head out of the kitchen, he saw that Mrs. Liu had brought a lot of things, so he quickly stepped out to take them, and asked, "Mother, you didn't eat in town, did you?"

"No, we came back without seeing your father." Mrs. Liu handed the cloth to the second sister Qing Qiang, "Second girl, have you cooked?"

"Well, I boiled some brown rice porridge. I don't know if you will come back to eat. I picked some beans and wanted to fry them with minced garlic."

"Second sister, my mother bought a big bone, which is the best for making soup, but it must be split in half with an ax first, so that the bone marrow oil can be boiled out."

"Really, then I will leave it to me later."

Mo Qingqiang put the cloth on the kang, took the frame and looked at the big bones in the eye, there was some meat on it, not enough to satisfy the gluttony, but the taste of the bone soup should be quite good.

"Elder sister, be careful, don't touch your hands, there are still bones that need to be washed to clear out the bone dregs." Qingli followed behind the second sister, came to the yard, and continued, "Wash in a while After it’s done, I’m going to take it to my grandma, and the clerk at the medical center said that drinking big bone soup will nourish my body.”

"Okay, okay, got it."

The second sister, Qing Qiang, was really good at work, she was very nimble, when she lifted the ax and dropped it, the bone was cut into two halves without much crumbs.

"You went to the clinic today and asked about Wild Chrysanthemum?"

"Well, Second Sister, they said that fresh three coins cost a catty."

"Really, it's good to be brave. There are many things in the mountains. I will go into the mountains tomorrow."

Mo Qingqiang heard that she could really exchange copper coins, her eyes lit up, there are so many wild chrysanthemums in the mountains, no matter what, they can be exchanged for hundreds of cash, she has been doing network work recently, and slowly scraped together a tael of silver, one tael for one Two together, to 100 taels, the little girl's face will be saved!
Mo Qingli didn't know what the second sister was thinking, but seeing her bright eyes, she felt that this girl was too poor, and she was so excited when she saw that she could exchange copper coins, she also fell into Qian's eyes.

"By the way, Second Sister, my mother and I came back to meet Sixth Uncle Mo, and my mother said that I would send ten eggs over."

"Well, that's okay, Aunt Six also needs to make up for her illness."

Mo Qingqiang nodded, and said, "Go and send a small basket of potatoes, Aunt Six is ​​not in good health and didn't grow those vegetables."

"kindness."

It seems that the family members are all good-hearted, the second sister didn't say anything, Mo Qingqiang quickly packed the things, saw a big bone and took two broken pieces, "You can take this too, don't you mean To mend the body, the remaining two from our family will be given to the uncle's family."

"alright."

Anyway, I don’t have much meat, I mainly rely on soup, and I keep enough at home. I will sell wild chrysanthemums for copper coins in the future and buy some.

As an errand runner, Qingli first took a basket filled with big bones and pastries to the uncle's house, and had a brief chat with grandma and grandma about going to town, then returned home, and took the second sister The prepared potatoes, eggs and big bones were picked up. Mo Qingqiang saw that the weight of the things was not light, and she was afraid that she would beat the eggs, so she also followed behind, and the two walked towards Uncle Mo Liu's house in a leisurely manner.

Aunt Mo Liu's house is not far from Qingli's house, forming a diagonal line. Qingli and her second sister Qing Qiang walked for about seven or eight minutes. The dirt roads in this village are uneven, so Qingli had to take the eggs and the basket of potatoes. I gave it all to my second sister, but in the end I only took two big bones.

"Shanzi, what are you messing with?"

The second sister, Qing Qiang, brought Qingli into the yard, and saw Mo Zishan squatting on the ground, fiddling with something like a carving knife in his hand, cutting a piece of wood.

"Second sister, little sister."

When Mo Zishan saw someone coming, he stood up quickly and shook the sawdust on his body. He didn't know how to call someone, but he usually had contacts with Mo Zisong, so he simply called with him. In fact, most people in the village were called Qingli. Ugly, but he couldn't say it out loud. He was grateful from the bottom of his heart for the matter of the purse last time. If his family is prosperous in the future, he will definitely repay the favor. He himself knew how desperate he was at that time. The kind of relatives who were in the hospital were uncertain of life or death, and he lost his only money, as if the life-saving straw had been broken. If something happened to his mother, he would probably feel guilty for the rest of his life!
