Happy pastoral sturdy little lady

Chapter 71 Human Heart
Xiangdong is the one with the best martial arts among all the children.Don't say "one against a hundred", at least "one against ten".Ten strong men without martial arts foundation, he only needs three or two moves, and he can beat the opponent to pieces.

Even Rao Shouqin, Liu Xiangchun and Fifth Uncle learned a few practical self-defense moves from Master Wang. The three of them seemed younger and healthier than five years ago.Especially the fifth uncle, who vaguely still has the spirit of a heroic man, not angry but powerful.

Thanks to the efforts of the fifth uncle, the scale of the farm is getting larger every year. Now there are as many as 2000 chickens, [-] ducks, [-] geese, [-] to [-] fish, and [-] pigs.The annual net profit is as high as [-] taels of silver. For the people of Shanqian Village, such a harvest is a huge amount of wealth!
The annual harvest of honeysuckle on Lonicera Mountain also exceeds 100 taels of silver.The harvest of the small workshop is more than 100 taels.The cooperation with Moxiangzhai has always been stable. The order volume of book boxes is basically maintained at the order volume of ten rattan boxes and twenty wooden boxes every month.

Although the number of orders for the book box is not many, Fujibox is following the high-quality route, and can earn a hundred taels of silver in a year.Rao Shouqin and his five younger brothers split half and half, and each of them got 50 taels, which is not a small income, and he can support his family!
Even so, in line with the principle of not being jealous, the big girl's life is also very low-key.The house is a stone house built five years ago, with five main rooms and two wing rooms on the east and west.It was still a fence, but outside the fence, a circle of thorns was planted.Inside the hedge was another ring of tall, lush trees, which hid the stone house.

People from other villages passed by the house, but they couldn't tell that it was a stone house, and thought it was an ordinary farmyard.One year bandits came into the village, and those bandits also went straight to those green brick and big tile houses, but no one cared about Da Ya's house.

Few people really know how much money Da Ya's family earns in a year. Honeysuckle can be sold for silver, so far only a few people who have a good relationship with Da Ya's family know.The farm is closed and managed, and outsiders are not easily allowed to enter. Not many people know how many fish, chickens, ducks, geese, and pigs there are.Apart from my own family, Li Zheng, the patriarch and a few tight-lipped elders knew about it.
Da Ya's family will donate 50 taels of silver to the village every year, which is used to build roads, build ancestral halls, help the poor, invite teachers and so on.Therefore, Lizheng and the others naturally appreciate it, and will not tell about the affairs of Da Ya's family, so as not to arouse jealousy.

In addition, Da Ya's family will buy a lot of pens, inks, papers and inkstones every year to help the children of those poor families so that those children will not be able to afford to go to school.With the 50 taels of silver, the private schools run by the villagers in this village are free of tuition, but the books, pens, ink, paper and inkstones still have to be bought with their own money.

The five widowed and lonely elderly people in the village and Da Ya's family also extended a helping hand as much as possible. Clothes, shoes and socks, as well as necessary food and vegetables, will be sent regularly and quantitatively.When the elderly are sick and need money to see a doctor, they will also lend a helping hand.

With her help, the fifth uncle and the fifth uncle's family lived a good life without worrying about food and clothing.All three families have bought five or six mu of fertile land and seven or eight mu of dry land. In Shanqian Village, such families are above average.Especially the fifth uncle, who also married the daughter of a dutiful family in the next village. Three years ago, when the fifth aunt married the fifth uncle, the fifth uncle was already 27 years old!

Now, the fifth uncle already has a two-year-old son, and the husband and wife live happily and happily.

That evening, Uncle Wu and Uncle cleaned up the farm, and sat in the wind and rain pavilion by the fish pond to chat.Looking at the sparkling water, Fifth Uncle couldn't help feeling deeply moved when he mentioned Da Ya.

"I can be today thanks to Yue girl. If she hadn't extended a helping hand, I would still be living in Wudaoliang, living a hard life with hunger and full meals." Not to mention, marrying a wife and giving birth child.Even if he can marry a daughter-in-law, there will never be a child whose mother is so gentle, so considerate, and so lovely.Maybe she is a woman who is as unbearable as the fourth sister-in-law!
The uncle felt the same: "Yes, we brothers have such a good life today, and Da Ya is a great contributor! Back then, if it wasn't for her, we could only nest in that mountain lump, and we had nothing to do. .Not only our generation, but even the next generation have nothing to look forward to! Isn’t that how the fourth brother is now?”

Uncle Wu frowned: "Fourth brother asked for it himself. He is lazy, greedy and selfish. Even if such a person goes to the capital, even if he has someone to help him, he is destined to have nothing to do!"

"Yes, in the past few years, we have given him almost 30 taels of silver! But, according to the villagers, he lost that silver in a blink of an eye! We are not What a big family, such a brother, there is really no way to help!"

"That's right, if you don't save the poor, what Da Ya said is very reasonable!" Uncle Wu's words made the last bit of guilt in the uncle's heart disappear.

After sighing, the two brothers boarded the small wooden boat and went back to their home on the other side.Three years ago, the farm built four large tile-roofed houses with green bricks. The two main rooms are bedrooms, and the other two lower rooms are kitchens and tool rooms.Now that there are many people in the family, it is divided into two shifts, one shift for the fifth uncle and fifth aunt, and one shift for the uncle and the eldest aunt.However, when the weather is fine, when it’s time for meals, they all go back to their homes on the other side to eat.

Da Ya's family basically didn't care about the farm affairs, and almost entrusted the fifth uncle with almost all powers, and let him be the master of the house.That is, every three to five days, I will go there to check the situation.By the way, I also chatted with my grandma's family and exchanged opinions.

The eldest cousin, Chunlai, is indeed married to Maoshan's son, Xiaohai. They have only been married for three years, and now they only have a daughter, Xiaocong, who is just one month old.Xiaohai's grandma was very unhappy, cursing all day long, quite dissatisfied with Chunlai.

Today is the day to make full moon wine for children.

Da Ya's family brought gifts and walked to the gate of the courtyard, when they heard Xiao Hai's grandma's loud voice: "Who do you think you are? You have been married to my grandson for three years, and you haven't even given birth to an egg! Huh! It's just a girl's film, a loser, and it's worth spending so much money to buy full moon wine? With this spare money, why not send the second child's children to school!"

Chunlai and Xiaohai were so angry that their faces turned livid, but they didn't dare to speak back. They were really aggrieved!
Da Ya was furious, and rushed in, kicking over a basket full of sweet potatoes: "What are you talking about? Isn't Xiao Cong the great-granddaughter of your own blood? You are also a girl, little one!" Time is also a girl's film, so you are also a loser!"

While speaking, Liu Xiangchun and Rao Shouqin had already rushed over, each carrying a basket full of it.There are cloth, chicken and pork, children's clothes, shoes and socks, rice noodles and so on.Every thing looks good at first glance, dazzled everyone's eyes.

Some people commented: "Hey, it doesn't take ten taels of silver to buy it?"

"That's right, that's not true. Da Ya's family is really willing to part with it. You can't find such a generous family in the ten miles and eight towns!"

There were also people who were jealous and couldn't help saying sarcastic remarks: "Hey, it's just a girl's film, why send such a generous gift?"

Chunlai's eyes were red, and he felt very uncomfortable.

"Cousin, don't be sad, some people are mean, just treat it like a dog barking!" Da Ya reached out and patted her cousin on the shoulder, took out a pair of red gold bells from the basket in her hand, and a pair of bells. Delicate silver lock, a pair of silver bracelets.

"Cousin, this is a gift from me to Xiao Cong, please don't dislike it, it's from my heart. Here I wish Xiao Cong good health and happiness!" Seeing that her cousin wanted to refuse, Da Ya hurriedly stuffed these things In the hands of my cousin, the attitude is very firm.

"Thank you Yue'er, Xiaocong is very lucky to have a cousin like you!" Chunlai felt warm in his heart, and the previous unhappiness was much lessened, and a bright smile appeared on his face.

Da Ya glanced at Xiao Hai's grandma sharply, and shouted: "Er Ya, put the presents in the cousin's room, don't let villains steal them! These things are all given to Xiao Cong and Cousin by our family. , even if it's a piece of noodles, I don't want to give it to those people with evil intentions!"

Xiaohai's grandma's face turned red and then pale when she heard it, and she wanted to go forward to grab a piece of fabric, but she didn't have the courage and shamelessness.Alas, it's a pity, there are so many good things that should belong to me, but now it's cheaper than the man who married in the deep mountains.

Grandma Xiaohai grew up in the town when she was young, and always looked down on Chunlai because she came from a deep mountain.In front of Chunlai, she felt that she was superior to others, and she never had a good look towards Chunlai.

The big girl sighed again: "Oh, my cousin is so pitiful! At first I thought my cousin's husband's mother was a good mother-in-law, and this marriage couldn't be better, but I didn't expect such an unreliable mother-in-law to appear! How are you going to live? Doesn’t Xiao Cong just make a full moon wine, so you need such perseverance?”

The tone was soft, but it was like a big stone falling into a calm lake, stirring up thousands of waves. "You shameless girl, how could it be your turn for an outsider to point fingers at my family's affairs? Get out of here, otherwise, don't blame me for sweeping your family out with a broom!"

Grandma Xiaohai raised the broom in her hand, looked at Da Ya with disgust, and cursed viciously.Since Da Ya's family was separated from the old house, she has always looked down on Da Ya, thinking that she is a girl who shows her face all day long, and she is really shameless.She seems to have forgotten, if it wasn't for Da Ya's help, how could she live a good life without worrying about food and clothing like today?

Chunlai was so frightened that his face turned pale and his whole body trembled.She has always been very afraid of this grandma, and never dared to disobey her in the slightest.The husband's mother, that is, my mother-in-law is a kind-hearted person, but what I didn't expect was that my mother-in-law was very difficult to get along with.No matter what she did, she would not please the old granny, and she would always pick out her faults of one kind or another.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is nitpicking!After being married for three years, the old mother-in-law has to scold her every day, and life is really trembling.Although the mother-in-law wanted to help her, but the mother-in-law's seniority was there, and the other aunts and aunts were also instigating.If you want to live a peaceful life, you can only think about it in your dreams.

In the past three years, Da Ya wanted to help her cousin out several times, but was stopped by Chunlai.It's just that, in today's situation, I'm afraid I can't hold back!

Chunlai looked at the big girl worriedly, the cousin really gritted her teeth, and couldn't bear it anymore and said: "Old woman, it stands to reason that your family's affairs have nothing to do with me! But Chunlai is my cousin, my uncle's precious daughter! In the past three years, he has worked hard, been kind to others, and always thought of others, no matter whether it is to the elders or the younger generation, there is nothing wrong with it.

Such a granddaughter-in-law, you have to toss and scold her every day.It's been three years, it's been long enough, I'm afraid you'd have driven me crazy if I had changed someone else!If a person is in a bad mood and lives a miserable life, can he be healthy?If you are not in good health, can you give birth to a son? !Or, are you doing this on purpose?Otherwise, why don't you see you being so vicious to other granddaughters-in-law? !
