The Spring of the Peasant Woman of Transmigration

Chapter 59

Tomorrow is Li Yuqin's wedding day. Li Sanlin's family went to the old house early in the morning. Lu Yumin saw him slaughter a pig for the first time. The bloody scene made her feel very cruel, but his helplessness in choosing this profession made her very sad. pity.

With the knife in hand, Li Sanlin's technique was very neat. He divided the whole pig into two sides with a few knives, and then cut off all the pig's offal with a few knives.

Lu Yumin saw that after Li Sanlin cut off the pig's heart and liver, she threw the rest of the offal on the grass beside her. She asked him, "Don't you want these?"

Li Sanlin hurriedly said: "These things are smelly, not tasty, and most people don't want them, they are given to dogs to eat too much."

A crow flew over Lu Yumin's head!If she used it to eat, wouldn't she be able to grab food from the dog?But throwing this thing away is really an embarrassment. She is good at braised pork belly, vinegared fat intestines, smoked sausage with roasted peppers, spicy lung slices and so on. Aren't they all delicious?
Thinking of delicious food, Lu Yumin didn't care whether to grab food from dogs or cows, so she asked, "Then can I take these things back?"

Li Sanlin frowned: "What do you want these for? These things are very smelly. If you want to eat meat, bring more back when I slaughter pigs in two days."

Lu Yumin smiled mysteriously and said, "I don't want to eat meat, but I read a recipe in a book saying that pig offal will become delicious as long as it is washed clean!"

Li Sanlin said in disbelief: "Is there such a prescription? No matter how many times you wash this thing, it still smells bad!"

Lu Yumin said: "Then let me try it?"

Li Sanlin said helplessly: "I'll wash it in the river for you in a while and bring it back to you. Don't do it yourself, lest you make your whole body stink to death!"

Lu Yumin had no choice but to say, "Then I'll go with you later."

When Li Sanlin was washing the pig intestines and belly, Lu Yumin was about to wash the pig lungs. Li Sanlin immediately said, "Daughter-in-law, that stuff is really bad. It tastes like cotton, and it doesn't smell at all."

Lu Yumin smiled and said: "This kind of thing can also be made delicious. You can try it after I make it. If you think it's delicious, you can bring back what others don't want?"

Li Sanlin asked suspiciously: "Is this really delicious?"

Lu Yumin smiled again and didn't answer Li Sanlin. She just took the scissors in her hand and squeezed out the lung ducts one by one. Can you cook and eat?"

Lu Yumin shook her head: "I have to go back and wash it with special things, so that there will be no smell! The flour at home is gone, where can you get a small bowl?"

Li Sanlin said: "Could it be that these things have no smell when they are cooked together with flour?"

Lu Yumin said: "No, I'm going to use it to wash the pig's intestines and belly, wash it with flour and vinegar for a while, then wash it with vegetable oil, and finally rinse it with clean water several times and the smell will disappear! Then don't say it's too delicious!"

Looking at the smug little daughter-in-law, Li Sanlin felt it was amused: "Just such a small thing is worth your happiness? You are such a fool!" As he spoke, he pulled her to his chest and kissed her fiercely, regardless of whether the person in front of him agreed or disagreed. After a while, he turned around and went to the next door, leaving a startled man standing by the river in a daze!
Li Sanlin went back to the old house after getting the flour. After Lu Yumin cleaned those things, he put them in a pot and boiled them with water. After the intestines and stomach were filled with water, they simmered for a while before putting them in. In the basin, sprinkle a handful of salt and put it away. This thing was a good thing in the previous life. Since it is not worth money here, can she make it worth money?
Money is needed to live a life!Lu Yumin knew that she didn't have much ability, but the knowledge of thousands of years would always work here, even if she didn't have golden fingers to make the family rich and powerful, but it was the most basic thing for the family to have no worries about clothes!
——Suddenly, Lu Yumin, who worked hard for a living in her previous life, began to wake up!

At noon, all the rivals and relatives of the Li family had arrived, and Lu Yumin didn't know any of them. When she was serving tea to the women in a remote room, a woman in her fifties asked, "Third nephew, what are you doing?" Why are you getting thinner and thinner? I heard that you have been sick several times, and I said that the daughter of this scholar's family is not our real rural person, and she is always sick, what should I do?"

Li Yuxiang was coming in with a plate of fruit from outside the door, and when she heard the woman's voice, she said, "Auntie, don't look at my third sister-in-law's skinny appearance, she is very capable in doing things! Besides, she will be born I got sick twice, how can I be so sick as you said!"

Another 43-year-old woman said to Li Yuxiang disdainfully: "How capable is your third sister-in-law? I heard that she was frightened by a leech just after leaving the field during the busy farming season last time! Tell me about it. Can you say you can do it?"

Li Yuxiang said unconvinced: "Second aunt, what is this? People always have things to be afraid of. Doesn't my third sister-in-law just happen to touch these things? My third sister-in-law is doing a lot of things well! Let me tell you, The dishes she cooks are the best, her straw sandals are the best to wear, and the jelly she made is loved by many people.”

Second Aunt Li still said with a look of disdain: "Those are trivial matters, nothing to them! It really doesn't help men much! To really help a man, there must be someone who can master the inside and the outside." Only women can do it, so that the family will prosper! Her uncle, sister-in-law, do you think I am right?"

Li Sanlin's eldest aunt was called the eldest sister-in-law. When she heard the second aunt Li asking her, she immediately smiled and said, "Second aunt of my in-laws, how can you be wrong? The third niece is really too thin. If It's even better to be like the daughter of my in-laws' aunt's family!"

Lu Yumin turned around and peeked at the daughter of the aunt who was praised by others: she was about 20 years old, and because her skin was a little dark, she couldn't tell her exact age.The long hands and feet are no less than 1.7 meters two, and the height of the person is also large. Although she is not too ugly, she is not a beauty either. She can only be said to be a typical peasant woman!

Aunt Li said modestly according to her aunt's words: "My sister-in-law can't praise her child like this, otherwise she would be proud! Only pity my son who needs character and appearance, but his life is too hard. Having met such a fierce mother-in-law and such a cowardly man, she was so tired that she went back to her mother's house! My poor son!"

Aunt Li wiped her tears as she spoke, and Second Aunt Li scolded fiercely: "People from the Ye family will not end well! Eldest sister, don't be sad, a good girl like our Xiu'er, how can the cowardly son of the Ye family be worthy of her?" of!"

The eldest aunt responded: "Yes, yes! How can a person like Miss Biao find a good family! This Ye family is really blind."

Second Aunt Li said happily: "You are right, sister-in-law! My Xiu'er is such a good child. Don't worry about Xiu'er. We will definitely find a good one for you in the future."

Zhu Xiuer's face was full of embarrassment: "Thank you, aunt! I won't be sad if my aunt and aunt worry about me! It's because they don't know my goodness!"

Aunt Li deliberately said angrily: "Look at this child, you are really not ashamed when you are praised!"

The eldest aunt smiled and said, "Auntie, this child Xiu'er is telling the truth! There's nothing to be ashamed about."

Second Aunt Li took a sip of the tea that Lu Yumin handed her and asked, "My third nephew, you look so thin like this! As Sanlin's real aunt, I really worry about my nephew! Oh, you How can this really help the third child?"

The eldest aunt followed up with a sigh and said: "The second aunt is right to be worried! The wife of the third nephew's family is too weak, and she has no luck as a man! I think the third nephew's family can prosper by finding a helper!"

Second Aunt Li quickly praised: "It's still my elder sister-in-law who is very knowledgeable. Your idea is really a good one! This youngest should really have another capable woman as his wife, so that he won't be so tired!"

Li Yuxiang, who placed the fruit, asked puzzledly: "Second aunt, don't all the people with wives and concubines only belong to rich families? My third brother's family is so poor that I can't even eat enough. How can I have money to marry Ping? wife?"

After hearing Li Yuxiang's words, Aunt Li immediately asked, "Xiang'er, your third brother is a skilled person, so why can't he even have enough to eat? Third nephew and daughter-in-law, it's because you can't do the job and you can't manage well, right?"

Named!It seems to be getting to the point, what Wang Dafeng said is really not groundless!It seems that this person is Zhu Xiu'er!

Lu Yumin curled her lips, it seems that this group of people came to give her a bad impression today first, and then get to the point!What a group of old women who eat carrots lightly and worry about salt!Want to play with me?Do you really think I'm easy to bully?

Thinking of this, she squinted her eyes, and then replied honestly: "If I go back to my aunt, my niece and daughter-in-law have always wanted to be in charge of the family, and I only take care of the children and trivial matters at home."

——Let me tell you, I am housekeeper but I don't care about the money, whether there is money or not, it is not my fault that the family is poor!

Aunt Li asked suspiciously: "You didn't say that on purpose to avoid it, did you?"

Second Aunt Li said disapprovingly: "Sister, in this family, the person in charge of money can't do much, but the one who arranges affairs is the most important thing. The third child in the family can't do this and that can't help. How can the third child have time to earn money?" What about more silver?"

The eldest aunt agreed and said, "Yes! The third nephew can't go on like this! Nephew and daughter-in-law, you are the daughter of a scholar family. You have learned to be virtuous and virtuous since childhood, right? You should be more virtuous!"

Lu Yumin pretended to be virtuous: "Auntie, thank you for your reminder. I also want to be virtuous. I just don't know how to be virtuous. Can you remind me?"

The eldest aunt pretended to be sympathetic and said: "Well, although you are the daughter of a scholar family, after all, you have lost your mother since you were a child. I can't blame you if you don't know what to do. The eldest aunt sees that you lost your mother early. For the sake of my dear, I would like to remind you that if you really want to make your husband's life easier, you should help him find a capable wife as soon as possible, so that you can take care of this family together, and this family will get better soon, I Think you don't mind?"

Lu Yumin wanted to slap this hypocritical aunt on the face, but she didn't dare to be presumptuous, no matter ancient or modern, no matter how excessive the elders are, you can't express dissatisfaction, so you can only curse secretly: "You old pervert! It's your fate to be reborn! Other people's affairs are none of your business!

The eldest aunt saw that Lu Yumin lowered her head and said nothing, so she asked again: "Nephew, do you think what the eldest aunt said is wrong?"

Lu Yumin raised her face and said pitifully: "Auntie, I don't think I mind, but now, can a person without fame marry a common wife? If people sue this to the government, will something happen? ? Second, I am really not happy to let other women divide my husband-in-law! However, the most important reasons are not these two. "

Second Aunt Li stared at her and asked, "What are you talking about, third nephew and daughter-in-law? Just now everyone said that you are virtuous, but at this critical moment you have revealed your true nature? You also said that you can read and write. I think you are better than us." People who can't read are still jealous! Don't we care about Sanlin? Otherwise, we would try our best to help him! However, what is the most important reason for this matter? We should listen to your sophistry!"

Aunt Li said unceremoniously: "Who in the countryside is meddling? Marrying a flat wife is mainly to help the family. As long as you get along in harmony, who will take care of it? You just agree, that's what a woman should be." rules!"

Lu Yumin's small face was even more aggrieved: "Auntie, Second Aunt, Auntie, and all the elders, I also want to be a good housekeeper! But if I become a good housemate, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of my stomach! This is what the four of us ate. The food is scarce enough, if there are a few more people to eat, the children will probably starve!"

Aunt Li said impatiently: "Whether there is enough to eat is a matter for the future, whether you agree or not is a matter for the present! So many elders ask you here, you just push things aside, you talk about other than not enough to eat. , what reason do you have!"

Lu Yumin looked at the seven or eight women in front of her, and said coldly after a moment of silence: "As Second Aunt said, it doesn't matter whether I like it or not? As long as my man takes a fancy to me, I just don't want to pay you back." Don't welcome me in? As a daughter-in-law, a man's words are the words, and I still have this part! It's just my man, you are all his elders, I'm afraid you understand his temper? It's not like an ordinary woman, maybe it's an adulterer I can't see him anymore!"

Aunt Li, Second Aunt, Aunt Zhu, Zhu Xiu'er, and several other elders looked at each other after hearing Lu Yumin's words. Don't look like the daughter-in-law of the Sanlin family is thin and weak and easy to bully, but she can choke to death when she speaks. You can't find it yet. no!
In order to relieve the embarrassment, the second aunt, who was silent all the time, opened her mouth to relieve Lu Yumin and said, "To be fair, the third niece and daughter-in-law are right. It really depends on Sanlin to decide on this matter. This man If you don't want to marry, can you still drive him to bed? She really can't be the master of a man as a daughter-in-law."

Li Yuxiang said indignantly: "My third brother will definitely not marry a common wife! He treats my third sister-in-law the best!"

Second Aunt Li said to her: "You are a child from every family, you know what is good and bad!"

Li Yuxiang was unconvinced: "Second aunt, I'm fourteen this year! I'm not a child anymore, and I can see how my third brother treats my third sister-in-law well! He will never marry an ordinary wife to separate me Sister-in-law's!"

Second Aunt Li scolded Li Yuxiang: "What do you mean by being against your sister-in-law! Don't we all say that because we care about your third brother?"

Li Yuxiang murmured, "I haven't seen any of your families marrying ordinary wives to prosper the family! None of your families look very rich!"

Aunt Li said angrily: "Xiang'er, you just said that you are not a child, can you say that now? It seems that after staying with people who have no rules for a long time, you don't even know the rules!"

Li Yuxiang still wanted to talk, but Lu Yumin tugged at her clothes and said to everyone: "Please forgive me, my elders, she really hasn't grown up yet! Children always like to say angry words. Which one of you Isn’t it a prosperous family? How can there be a need for an ordinary wife to help? But as for the rules that my aunt said, I think it should also be for people with rules.”

——You are all a group of people who have no rules, why are you talking about rules!
A woman in her early forties said awkwardly: "I think Xiang'er is right! We are not a wealthy family, and we marry wives and concubines every now and then! I think Sanlin's daughter-in-law is pretty good, I heard that you not only raised the child as your own, but also taught Niu Niu how to read and write! Such a stepmother is probably rare in the world."

Lu Yumin smiled lightly and thanked: "Aunt Xie San boasted! I only know a few words, just thinking that I can teach the child a little bit, and don't make him blind. Niu Niu is our family. The eldest son, he is going to meet the big world in the future!"

Another older woman said: "Hearing what the third daughter-in-law said, I really feel that you are worthy of being the daughter of a scholar family! Otherwise, how would you have such knowledge? A rich family marrying the head of the house is a knowledgeable one." Good mistress, because a good mistress affects three generations of descendants! This child Sanlin is really blessed!"

Li Yuxiang said proudly: "Auntie, you always don't know that my Niu Niu can read a lot of words now. My third sister-in-law said that when the family conditions are better, she will send Niu Niu to the clan to go to school! This is Only children from wealthy families in the clan can get in!"

When Lu Yumin saw the two people who had been silent just now speak for her, she said politely: "It's all my aunt's compliment! I have studied for a few years and learned the rules for a few years. I don't know anything else, but at least I know what a book is. share!"

After hearing Lu Yumin's words, some of the crowd blushed and some were gloomy, while Zhu Xiu'er at the side glared fiercely at Li Yuxiang, who was full of pride, and snorted coldly. The resentment on her face made people frightened!
