Chapter 25 Power
No matter how tired you are on the first day, you always get up early the next day. This is the nature of the farmers.

The same goes for Soho's.Although yesterday's feast made the two of them almost paralyzed from exhaustion, today, at the first bird call, Su Ho woke up.After washing up, just about to clean up yesterday's mess, Wang also got up.

After Su Ho and Mrs. Wang said goodbye, they asked with concern: "Mother, I was tired all day yesterday, is your body able to take it?"

Mrs. Wang laughed, and said: "Mother is not in her late [-]s and [-]s, so I can bear this!" Su Ho nodded without speaking, and started to pack his things.

The family can be said to be poor and poor. Almost all the things used for this banquet were borrowed from the village by the Wang family. Therefore, Su Ho has to clear out the borrowed things. This is a big project.Soho decided to start with pots and pans.After a while, Mrs. Wang had finished washing and came over to help.Asked what Su Ho hadn't cleaned up, Su Ho asked Mrs. Wang to clean up those tables, chairs and benches.

The two were doing things while chatting. "A lot of people came yesterday! We didn't invite so many people!" Wang sighed.

Su Ho thought for a while, and said: "Mother, among the people who came yesterday, I'm afraid there are not many people who sincerely congratulate you! Oh, it's Ergou's daughter-in-law who broke her mouth and told me about my going to Graceland Restaurant. Those people are just here to check our family background and see if we have made a fortune!" After all, Su Ho has lived two lives, and he has an incomparably accurate grasp of people's hearts. "Mother, do you think Ergou's daughter-in-law is thick-skinned? She still had a face yesterday, so she is not afraid that I will drive her out with a few brooms? I always think that Ergou's wife is my nemesis. She is ready Nothing good?" So saying, Su Ho put a bowl into the bamboo basket.

Su Ho's words brought back memories of what happened yesterday.

Originally, after Zhou Changwei left yesterday, the atmosphere was very lively.Ergou's daughter-in-law just buried her head in her mouth, ignoring what other people said.However, when Xi was about to leave, they didn't know what they were talking about at the table, and Ergou's wife called Su Ho over at that time.Su Ho didn't want to pay attention to her, but the identity of the host family would not allow Su Ho to do something disrespectful, so she had no choice but to go forward and ask if there was anything wrong with the hospitality.Unexpectedly, this step forward caused trouble.

Ergou's daughter-in-law grabbed Su Ho's sleeve with her greasy hand after eating, and said loudly: "Sister, your family's banquet is so good, it's not worse than ordinary rich people's. How much money!"

Su Ho looked at the greasy handprints on his sleeves, and wanted to cry but had no tears. The trouble was caused by himself, who could be blamed.I'm in a bad mood after a day of exhaustion, but the visitor is a guest, no matter how reluctant Su Ho is, he can only cheer up and deal with it: "What's the matter with the second sister-in-law, these things are all produced in my own garden, and they don't cost much money!"

The originally noisy courtyard immediately quieted down when Ergou's daughter-in-law asked this sentence.Hearing Su Ho's answer, some people asked unceremoniously: "Daughter-in-law Wang Zhi, you can't lie without a draft. How many people are we here today? How big is your vegetable garden? Ah!" The people who had been watching the fun laughed out loud.

When Su Ho heard it, come on, it's troublesome to eat and drink!Su Ho smiled wryly and said: "You may not believe me, but because of this table, my vegetable garden is empty!" Then he said: "This table didn't cost much, so I bought some fish and meat. That's all!"

When Ergou's wife heard what Su Ho said, she yelled loudly.Said: "Others don't know the situation of your family, how can I not understand, your family's life is not as good as mine, and you can't see a little oily star in a few months, today you can invite everyone to eat Big fish and big meat? Just this month's work, do you have that much ability? Today you guys saw the young owner of Graceland Restaurant come to your door! Hehehe." There was an obvious meaning in the laughter.

Wang Shi didn't intend to take care of this matter at first, she felt that Su Ho had experienced all kinds of storms, and now she was on her own territory, and she was not afraid that Ergou's daughter-in-law would cause any trouble, she believed that Su Ho could handle this matter by herself.However, she didn't expect that woman to be so shameless. There are only two women in the family, and gossip is already fierce. She doesn't know if she doesn't say it face to face. In front of many people, how could Mrs. Wang bear it if Ergou's daughter-in-law discredited Su Ho's reputation.

At that moment, Mrs. Wang scolded: "You shameless woman, you think that everyone goes from house to house like you, and you come to my house today to pick up shit. Why, do you think there is no man in my house? ? Even if there is no man, it is only a matter of one finger for me to deal with you."

Mrs. Wang was about to rush out, but was stopped by Su Ho: "Mother, it's just a trivial matter, beating her will dirty your hands."

Before Su Ho finished speaking, he heard Pan Ming yelling: "I'm full and have nothing to do, right? I ate other people's food to make things difficult for others, right? They didn't treat you well, right? These big The fish and meat are all eaten into the belly of the pig, right?." The people who said yes in a row were speechless, and some of them were thin-skinned and offered to leave, and handed over the gifts they brought to Mrs. Wang.Here, it is customary to give gifts after eating noodles.

After Wang took it, she thanked them all one by one, and sent them out the door.To some extent, Wang is a very good-tempered person, but he can't tolerate some things.

Pan Ming also took the opportunity to teach Ergou's wife a lesson, and told Chunmei to take good care of Ergou's wife!Even if this is over.It's just that Su Ho still has some lumps in his heart, a good full moon wine was destroyed by Ergou's wife.

Mrs. Wang sighed, and said, "Ergou's daughter-in-law deserves a beating!" The tone was bitter: "She just has no brains to tarnish your reputation. Alas, in front of so many people, saying something like this It’s true, I’m not sure how it will be spread in the future.” Not without worries.

Su Ho acted indifferent, she said: "Mother, what's the matter, if we open our mouths on other people, can we still sew their mouths up? Besides, mother's things have good and bad sides, people I thought I was making a fortune from Zhou Shaodong's family, so our fish pond can be kept hidden for a longer period of time, and we can also buy fish for a few more days!"

"I can only think so!" Wang Shi sighed again.Su Ho looked at Wang's appearance and knew that in Wang's eyes, a woman's reputation was very important.I didn't talk to her much out of fear of breaking her heart.Su Ho is also very helpless, he really doesn't care what others think, but if there is any way to change Wang's thinking, he can only shake his head in his heart.

Suddenly, Su Ho thought of a question: "Mom, the vegetables in our vegetable garden were almost eaten yesterday, can we plant them for another season?"

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Wang shook her head and said: "It's too late, it's going to be autumn soon, and it will be cold as soon as there is a frost, and the temperature is so low that there is no way to survive!"

When Su Ho heard that it would be very cold, he asked, "Will it snow?"

"Sometimes yes, sometimes no!"

Su Ho thought for a while, and said, "Mom, why don't we try it! We don't grow eggplants and beans, but some vegetables that are more resistant to cold. If we grow well, we can have some vegetables to eat in winter. If you can’t finish eating, you can give it away or buy it, and you can get an extra income; if you don’t grow it, there is no loss, just treat it as adding fat to the land.”

"Can this work?" Mrs. Wang hesitated, "Didn't the elders say that this method is feasible?"

"Mother, it should be ok. Use more snacks on weekdays. If you don't, you won't lose, right? Besides, I'm afraid that this fish won't be able to be sent to the Graceland Restaurant after a while. When it's cold, the fish in the river will be all gone." hid."

Mrs. Wang felt that what Su Ho said made sense. After thinking about it for a while, she nodded and agreed: "There are cabbage seeds, spinach seeds and green vegetable seeds at home, oh yes, and coriander seeds. Do you plant them all?"

"Grow some of them!" Suho made a decision. "Mom, it's almost over here, have you finished it yet?"

"It's almost ready!"

"Mother, I will return the things with you later, and then I will go to the water to catch fish. I haven't prepared the portion that I promised Graceland Restaurant today! You help me prepare the wooden barrel at home. Just bring it here!" It turned out that in order to avoid people's eyes and ears, Soho hid the wooden barrel in the chicken coop and covered it with dead branches so that people could not see the clue.

Wang Shi originally planned to go with Su He, but the work at home was equally important, so she had to give up her mind and stay at home.After a while, the two of them cleaned up what needed to be cleaned up, and the small courtyard was restored to its previous cleanliness.Together, the two returned all the borrowed tools, and after thanking these people repeatedly, they each started their respective division of labor: Su He went down to catch fish, and Wang Shi prepared some tasks at home and brought leeks.

It was a bit late to go down the river today, Suho hurriedly finally got all the fish before the people from Yayuan Restaurant came.After the people from Yayuan Restaurant took all the fish away, Su He and Wang were greatly relieved!

At this time, the sun has already set in the west.The two were exhausted from a busy day, regardless of the sky, went to bed for a while, and when they opened their eyes, there was only a ray of sunset in the sky.

Su Ho opened his eyes, and saw his son's Gu Lulu eyes looking at him, his hands could already move, and he was gnawing on his mouth.Seeing her son like this, Su Ho felt extremely satisfied. She knew that for her son, she would give her everything, even her life.

Hearing the sound of Mrs. Wang cooking outside the house, and seeing her son's innocent smile, Su Ho felt that life had never been so happy.

 Sorry for being late.
