The Spring of the Peasant Woman of Transmigration

Chapter 21

Before dinner, a few people were sitting at the table waiting for their meal. Niu Niu looked at his father and said timidly, "Mom, I didn't roll on the floor on purpose today!"

Lu Yumin asked: "Did Niu Niu accidentally?"

Niu Niu said: "No, it was Xi Gouzi's grandpa who went to pick wild vegetables. We thought he was pitiful, so we went with him to pick wild vegetables. We got dirty by crawling around in the grass!"

Lu Yumin asked: "Xiao Gouzi's family doesn't have enough to eat? Is his grandpa very hungry picking wild vegetables?"

Niu Niu said: "It's Xi Gouzi's grandpa who has no food to eat!"

Lu Yumin said, "Won't the little dog's father eat it?"

Niu Niu said: "Xiaogouzi's grandfather didn't eat with them!"

Seeing that Lu Yumin was confused by Niu Niu's words, Li Sanlin said: "Uncle Qin lives alone, and his two unfilial sons don't raise him. Niu Niu will stop playing with the little dog in the future!"

It turned out to be an accident of an unfilial son pitying his parents. There have been too many such stories from ancient times to the present. In order to guide the father and son, Lu Yumin said: "The son is not filial, and the responsibility of the parents is even greater!"

Li Sanlin's face darkened: "Don't talk nonsense in front of the children!"

Lu Yumin hurriedly said: "Don't get angry, it's not too late to get angry if I'm wrong. There is a saying that it is the fault of the adopted son and not the godfather!" She said while chopping vegetables.

After hearing this, Li Sanlin thought for a while before saying, "It makes sense for you to say that!"

Lu Yumin said: "I didn't say this, but a sage said it."

Li Sanlin saw that the children were listening carefully to what they said, so he asked again: "Then you can explain the truth?"

Lu Yumin said, "Let me tell you a story!"

When Niu Niu heard that there was a story to listen to, he said happily: "Mother, tell me quickly!"

Lu Yumin said: "There lived a family in a village. There were grandfather, father and grandson. One day the grandfather was sick and couldn't work. The father said to the grandson: Son, let's send the grandfather to the mountain at night. He can't work, eats, drinks, and gets sick, so I can't support him anymore. So the father and son carried grandpa up the mountain at night!"

Niu Niu said "ah": "Mom, won't grandpa starve to death?"

Lu Yumin smiled and said: "Yes! The two carried grandpa under a big tree on the mountain, and then walked back! No matter whether grandpa cried or shouted, he ignored it and left! We walked halfway , The grandson suddenly said: Daddy, I have to go back. Daddy said: What are you going back for? The grandson said: I have to take that basket back. Daddy said: It’s a rotten basket, so don’t let it go! The grandson said: That’s not okay! I have to keep it, and when you are old, I can carry you up the mountain too!"

Niu Niu clapped his hands and laughed: "Okay, okay, this daddy is too bad, we have to carry him up the mountain too!"

Lu Yumin praised him and said: "Our Niu Niu is really a good boy with a conscience! When he grows up, when his father gets old, he must be filial. You can't be like this father and be a bad person!"

Li Sanlin finally understood that the story Lu Yumin told was not for the children, but for him!So he said coolly: "Since you know so much, I will leave the teaching of the children to you in the future!"

Lu Yumin said depressedly: "The responsibility of teaching children is the responsibility of being a father! I'm not his father!"

Li Sanlin said: "Then there are still people in this world who say that there are mothers but not mothers! Doesn't this mean that children are taught by mothers?" Li Sanlin himself didn't realize that it was so natural for him to talk about mothers and mothers with his children. !
Lu Yumin asked again: "If the son doesn't raise his father, won't the clan know how to speak?"

Li Sanlin said: "Why can't you speak! The family has approached Uncle Qin's two sons many times, and they both agreed well on the surface, but in private they are still the same! Besides, this is a family scandal after all, and Uncle Qin can't do it like a son and daughter-in-law." Really do it!"

Lu Yumin smiled wryly: "There are so many infatuated parents, who knows how to be filial to their children and grandchildren! It's not unreasonable to raise a son and not teach him to harm his whole family, and to raise a daughter not to teach him to harm other people's families!"

Li Sanlin looked at her with strange eyes: "You said that really well, but where did you hear it?"

Lu Yumin was taken aback, only to realize that he had brought some words from his previous life here!She smiled and didn't answer.However, the summary of these lessons can be used no matter which world you are in!
When everything was packed, Lu Yumin found that the two children had fallen asleep on the bamboo bed under the pear tree in the yard. The wormwood she dried was burned in the weeds shoveled two days ago, and the mosquitoes were much less. They slept soundly.

Li Sanlin also took a nap, and woke up when he heard Lu Yumin's footsteps. Lu Yumin asked, "Are they all asleep?"

Li Sanlin said: "Well, I fell asleep!"

Lu Yumin said: "Take them in, you are tired too, go to bed early."

Li Sanlin said: "Some places I have a good spirit!"

Lu Yumin choked on Li Sanlin's words: "You can really tell!"

Li Sanlin said: "I can still do it!"

Lu Yumin blushed and carried Yaya into the room, and Li Sanlin also came in with Niu Niu in her arms. After putting down Niu Niu, Li Sanlin picked up Lu Yumin and put her on the bed. She struggled: "I'll go by myself, don't hug me, too hot!"

Li Sanlin was startled, ignored Lu Yumin's struggle, then carried her to the gate, and the two sat on the bamboo bed.

The next day Lu Yumin woke up a bit late, after making a good meal for the children, she cleaned up the house and sat on the shelf playing straw sandals. Thinking of what happened last night, she scolded herself over and over again for not being ambitious, obviously being bullied by others. What's the matter, she still enjoys it very much!
"Sanlin's family, are you at home?" Fifth Aunt's voice came from outside the courtyard gate.

Lu Yumin woke up from deep contemplation, immediately put down the straw sandals in her hands and walked out the door: "Aunt Wu, are you here? Come and have a seat!"

Aunt Zhang Wu said: "What are you doing at home alone? Why don't you come to my aunt's house?"

Lu Yumin said: "What else can I do? Isn't it just tidying up the house. My husband's straw sandals break down quickly, so I will make a few more pairs if I have nothing to do."

Aunt Zhang Wu looked at the straw sandals made by Lu Yumin and said, "Sanlin's, your hands are really clever! If your straw sandals are put in the grocery store, many people will sell them!"

Lu Yumin asked in surprise, "Fifth Aunt, does anyone really want it?"

Aunt Zhang Wu said: "People usually buy straw sandals in the grocery store! It's just that they can't earn a lot of money, and not many people are willing to make them! But your straw sandals are made differently from others. The style and the feeling of the feet are different. Very good, you can sell it at a higher price and earn a few silver.”

Lu Yumin said: "Aunt Wu, if we go tomorrow, how many pairs should we bring?"

Fifth Aunt Zhang asked, "Did you finish the fight?"

Lu Yumin said: "There are five pairs of hits, try it tomorrow and see if it's okay?"

Aunt Zhang said happily: "Then you take it with you tomorrow, and I'll take you to the grocery store. I'm here today to ask you, should this dried bayberry be prepared as it was that day before delivery?"

Lu Yumin hurriedly said: "Aunt Wu, let's not prepare it and send it away. When we get to the shop, I'll just teach Boss Zheng how to make it! It's very simple anyway, so it won't break easily."

Aunt Zhang frowned and asked, "Sanlin's family, do you really want to teach Boss Zheng the method?"

Lu Yumin was taken aback: "Fifth Aunt, can't this be done?"
