Yoshida Mii

Chapter 63 Mii
Youdao is a play with three women. If you get together, you can’t finish talking. In addition, the three of you are in a new environment, and you can’t sleep anymore. In addition to gaining a better understanding of the superb level of the Song family and their relatives, they also learned a lot about the customs and customs of this society.

However, Dong Bao's body was too young to bear the sleepiness, and when Li Shi and his aunt were chatting vigorously, he couldn't open his eyes in a daze.Seeing that Dong Bao had fallen asleep, the two quickly lowered their voices.

Before Dong Bao fell asleep, he heard his aunt ask in a low voice, "Hongzhen, do you have any plans for the future?"

"What's the plan? Bring Dong Baoan up safely and find her a good husband's family. I'll be satisfied." Shi Li sighed softly.

Li Hongqin said disapprovingly: "You are still young, you are only in your early thirties, and you will be worthy of a scholar if you guard him for a year. It is difficult for you orphans and widows to have an independent family!"

"Sister, I didn't think about it..." Mrs. Li stopped Li Hongqin eagerly, and said in a low voice, "It's easy to say after I'm gone, what about Dongbao? Who wants to raise a daughter for nothing?"

It is not rare for widows to remarry these days, and the social atmosphere is not against widows remarrying. However, there are very few widows who remarry with children. Even if there are, almost no children live well in their new homes. If remarried widows have new children, The treatment of the previous children was even worse.

After finally breaking away from the cannibalistic Song family, Mrs. Li didn't want Dong Bao to be wronged again, but if she married Dong Bao, eating other people's family and living in other people's house, she would end up with bad people. , isn't life even worse than that of the Song family!

"Hey." Li Hongqin sighed, she is also a mother, even if she is asked to remarry, she is not willing, for fear that her two children will be wronged, but her situation is different from Li's. After getting married, the family can be supported by their sons. The Li family only has one daughter, Dong Bao. When Dong Bao gets married in the future, she will be truly lonely.

"Give Dong Bao a girlfriend." Li Hongqin whispered, "Dong Bao is a good-looking girl, quick and capable. I think she is more useful than boys."

Dong Bao listened in a daze, wanted to laugh but was sleepy and tired and couldn't. She was only ten years old, and the people around her had been worrying countless times about her life's major events.In fact, it is good to recruit a new wife, but very few people in ancient times were willing to be a son-in-law...

Before falling asleep, Dong Bao heard Li Shi say a few words with a smile, but couldn't hear what she said clearly.

The next morning, Li Lifeng and Li Hongqin left. Li Lifeng was busy with the business of the shop, and Li Hongqin had Zhang Yunqian and Zhang Xiuyu at home. Li Hongqin missed his two children and did not stay at Dongbao's house for two more days.

It's a coincidence that after several days of rainy days, it cleared up the next morning when Dong Bao and Li Shi moved into their new home. When they walked into the yard, they saw the long-lost golden sun shining The earth is full, making people feel indescribably comfortable.

"Look, God is happy for us!" Dong Bao laughed.

Dong Bao and Li Shi got up first to reheat the leftovers from last night. After eating, they heard Lin Shi call the door, saying that Uncle Hong had brought someone to dig the well.Dong Bao hurriedly pushed Li Shi to lie down on the bed, and ran to open the door by himself.

Shuanzi's father led a seventeen or eighteen-year-old junior waiting outside the door, and was a little embarrassed to see Dongbao.

Dong Bao made a bow to Shuan Zi's father first, and said with a smile, "I'm here to thank Uncle Hong first."

"Thank you? It's a fellow from the village, raise your hand!" Shuanzi's father was a little embarrassed, and touched the back of his head. If it weren't for Dongbao, grass would have grown on Shuanzi's grave. How could this kindness be twofold? Those who can pay for the hanging money, as well as his own wife, did something stupid again, which made him feel even more guilty towards Li Shi and Dong Bao in his heart.

Lin Shi stood aside, smiled at Dongbao, and asked, "Did you sleep well last night?"

The golden sunlight shone on Lin Shi's handsome face, and a pair of narrow and long eyes glowed with soft light. Dong Bao's heart skipped a beat when he saw it, and he quickly moved his eyes away, saying: "You've slept well, the room Not even mosquitoes."

While talking, Shuanzi's father had already led the youngster into the yard, both of them were carrying a thick coil of hemp rope as thick as a child's arm.

"This is my elder sister's son. He came to help me. You can just call him Brother Xiao." Father Shuanzi smiled at Dong Bao, and while wrapping the hemp rope around his waist, he asked, "What's wrong with your mother?" How is it? Is it better?"

Dong Bao nodded, "It's much better, I didn't cough much last night."

"That's good." Shuanzi's father smiled and nodded, "Good people are rewarded, your mother must be tired from work, just rest for two more days."

The walls of the well at Tagouji are all made of bricks. The width of the well is only enough for an adult to turn around. When the water is on the surface, step on the sides of the well with both feet and stand in the middle to clean up the dirty things in the well.

According to Dong Bao, this is a tiring and cumbersome job, and it is a bit dangerous.

However, Shuanzi's father obviously has many times of experience in digging wells. After he tied the rope, Brother Xiao immediately tied the other end of the rope to himself. Shuanzi's father stepped on the edge of the well first, and slowly Go down slowly.

At this meeting, the two children Shuanzi and Quanzi also ran over to watch the fun, Lin Fu and Aunt Qiuxia also came over, holding a few handfuls of melon and vegetable seedlings in their hands, and put them in the shade. As soon as Aunt Qiuxia came over So I went to the back room to talk to Mrs. Li.

Seeing that Aunt Qiuxia was coming, Dongbao took Lin Shi out, picked up a handful of firewood, went to the river to fetch a bucket of water, and prepared to boil water for Shuanzi's father and Brother Xiao to drink.

When the two of them came back with firewood and buckets, they saw a lot of people around the door of the house. Dong Bao's nerves tensed up again, and he almost thought that something happened to the family. They had just separated, and the Song family went back on their word. up?
It wasn't until the two of them got closer that they came to see Shuanzi's father digging the well. There was not much activity in the village. Although it wasn't a rare thing to do well digging, it was still relatively rare.

Shuanzi's father had already gone down to the well. Brother Xiao slowly lowered the bucket for carrying water. After a while, he brought out a bucket full of leaves and dead branches. Lin Fu helped to pile these things into the corner of the yard.Farm households generally do not have the habit of taking out garbage, and they pile up garbage with pig manure and chicken manure, which are good things for composting.

When the sun was about ten feet up, Shuanzi's father came up from the well, his face covered with beads of sweat, he wiped his face and said with a smile, "This well water is good, I feel thirsty just now. , just took a sip, it was sweet, the old wells in our village are not as good as this water!"

"Here we go again, Dahuozi, you're a wangpo selling melons!" Someone who knew Hong's family at the door joked, "Which well did you scouring for that didn't have sweet water?"

After being exposed by him, Shuanzi's father blushed a little, and laughed loudly: "You don't believe it? You don't believe it? Come and taste it, it's really sweet!"

"Dahuozi, you are uneasy and kind!" the man laughed, "I don't want to drink it, the water is muddy now!"

"Uncle Hong, has the well been cleaned?" Dong Bao asked.

Shuanzi's father nodded, "It's almost done, and it can be used after a day of clearing. I also have a wooden lid at home, which is about the same size. I will ask Shuanzi to send it to you later. It can be used as a well cover."

After the well was cleaned, the spectators gradually dispersed. After drinking the water, Lin Fu and Shuan Zi’s father pulled out all the weeds growing in the yard while there was still time. He hoeed a small piece of land and planted the melon and vegetable seedlings brought by Aunt Qiuxia.

"Your family divided it late. If you divided it a month earlier, you could have sprinkled the vegetable seeds." Lin Shi felt a little regretful. The yard of Dongbao's house is so big. If all the vegetables were served, it would not only be enough for Li's mother and daughter. Yes, you can still sell a lot.It's a pity that it's already the end of April, and I can't plant much, so I can only wait for next year.

"It doesn't matter if it's not enough." Lin Shi smiled, "My family grows a lot of vegetables, enough for our two families to eat."

Dong Bao felt a little sorry. The vegetable seedlings brought by Aunt Qiuxia included pumpkin seedlings, eggplant seedlings, and some vegetable seedlings she didn’t know. Aunt Xia said when she first came, "there are too many vegetable seedlings growing in the field, and you don't need them if you pull them out".

"Brother Dashi, don't leave at noon, eat at my house, I will cook for you." Dong Bao smiled.

The atmosphere in Dongbao's new home is harmonious and harmonious, but the atmosphere in Song's house is not so harmonious. Aunt Song is nestling in the west wing with her belly outstretched, not coming out to do housework.Huang's mood was extremely bad early in the morning, and she wanted to get angry when she thought of the loss of a hundred catties of sorghum noodles and two hanging coins.

"I committed crimes in my previous life, and I owe you all the rabbits and bastards! I have no conscience to serve you when I am old, and my conscience has been eaten by dogs! Those who don't know think that there is something in their stomachs. It's a golden egg!" Mrs. Huang called Song Zhaodi to light the fire, and while cooking, scolded loudly, all the spitting stars were sprayed into the pot.

The Song family was used to her way of venting their anger, and no one came up to answer the conversation. Li Shi and Dong Bao left, and Huang Shi was reluctant to scold her son, so she could only insinuate Second Aunt Song.

After dinner, Second Uncle Song ran out while Mrs. Huang and Old Man Song were not paying attention. These days, he was too lazy to hunt rapeseed at home, so he hid whenever he could.

Most of the idlers in the village gathered at the entrance of the village to chat. Second Uncle Song walked over in a blazer, but before he came to him, someone said to him, "Second Song, your sister-in-law's house was cleaned out this morning!"

Second Uncle Song sneered and said, "What are you doing so stupidly!" Mrs. Li is a person who will die sooner or later.

"Everyone who went to see the fun said that the water in the well is sweet, but it's delicious." The man continued.

"Hey!" Uncle Song leaned lazily on the tree with his hands folded, and laughed out loud with his mouth curled up, "It's just a broken well that our family doesn't want. No matter how sweet it is, can it be used as food to satisfy people?"
