Chapter 62

Because they bought a lot, the shopkeeper of the food store smiled and asked someone to send a small bag of corn noodles, and asked someone to help pack it up and put it on the trolley.

Then I bought a lot of onion, ginger, garlic, aniseed cinnamon and so on, and the oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar were also bought. Anyway, I bought everything in one go.

Lin Baozhu thought that her own man didn't seem to have light clothes, so she simply dragged him to the cloth shop again.The navy blue cloth was stretched more than a dozen feet over his body, and he bought some Sanshuo cloth to make shoe uppers for him.

In just over half an hour, the trolley, which was empty just now, was already full.Even the baskets were filled with many things, but there was no gap at all.

After a big purchase, the sun will be on top.Zhang Mantun felt that it was too hot to walk back now. He didn't care about it, but he couldn't help worrying about his wife's small body.

After thinking about it, he simply took his wife to buy two jugs of wine, and then took her all the way to the alley to the east of the town.

Hearing that he was going to visit friends, Lin Baozhu didn't find it strange, after all, how can a man's family travel without three or five brothers and friends who can be said to be worthwhile?Thinking about the first time she came to the door, she also asked if the brother's family had any female relatives and children. After knowing that there was a daughter-in-law and a half-old daughter in the family, Lin Baozhu specially bought some snacks to bring with her.

Zhang Mandun is just a grass-roots guy, he is meticulous in everything except for his own wife.As for the daughters-in-law and daughters of other people's families, they never took it seriously, so even if they went there many times, they just brought some food and drinks.Thinking of this, he felt more and more that it was right to marry a wife.

Lin Baozhu was stared at by the man's naked fiery eyes, she felt a little shy in her heart, but her face just blushed, she just gave the man a sideways glance reproachfully, and then paid for the packaged snacks on her own.

On the way, the two talked while walking.Maybe it was really hot, but after a short while, beads of sweat appeared on Zhang Mandun's face, and even the front and back of the clothes seemed to be soaked.However, compared to the land repaired on the mountain, the one hundred and eighty kilograms of objects on the car were not heavy, and it was not exposed.

Seeing her man's expressionless but sweaty appearance, Lin Baozhu couldn't help but feel distressed, and took out a handkerchief from his arms to help him wipe the sweat off his forehead.

Speaking of which, when she first came to this world, she really felt inconvenient without paper wipes.Later, seeing that Mrs. Qian and Mrs. Tian both brought handkerchiefs with them to wipe sweat and hands, they then cut a small piece of light blue floral cloth, and asked Mrs. Tian to help sew the edges and use it as a handkerchief.

It's great to use now.

Zhang Mandun was taken aback by his wife's actions, and immediately pursed his lips, as if he wanted to laugh.There was a warm and affectionate relationship in this room, and it happened that someone came out of the run-down and musty alley in that room, and greeted Zhang Mandun and his wife from afar.

"Brother Zhang, why are you here?" The man walked over quickly, saw Lin Baozhu, and asked again, "Are these younger brothers and sisters?"

Zhang Mantun looked at his daughter-in-law with a smile, and nodded with great pride, "Well, my daughter-in-law."

That appearance, just like showing off.It wasn't until the man called his sister-in-law a few times that the three entered the alley together with a smile on their faces.

There are only two houses in this alley, one door is locked all the year round, and the yard seems to be empty.The other family is Shi Dayong's family who just greeted Zhang Mandun.

Several people entered the yard, Shi Dayong yelled at the house: "Xiu Niang, come out quickly, Brother Zhang and his younger siblings are here."

As soon as these words were said, a woman with a blue turban on her head came out wiping her hands with the apron wrapped in front of her.Seeing the person coming, the woman also had a smile on her face, and quickly asked Shi Dayong to move the table and bench.

And a half-grown girl behind her also looked at Lin Baozhu timidly, as if she was a little embarrassed.

"Zhao Di, why are you hiding, hurry up and call your aunt." Shi Dayong's wife's name is Zhang Xiuniang, she is the daughter of the old man Zhang's family in the town, she looks thin and frail, but she is very enthusiastic.And not only capable, but also a virtuous person, keeping the house in perfect order inside and out.

It was also because of this that Shi Dayong regarded her highly, and he never treated his wife harshly or beat, scolded and bullied her like other men.Even though his wife had only added a daughter to him all these years, she never thought of divorcing his wife.

Zhang Mandun explained this matter to his wife in a low voice while several people entered the house, which made Lin Baozhu have a very good impression of Shi Dayong who had just met.

Seeing Zhang Xiuniang busy pouring water to clean up now, she is quite enthusiastic, and the unnaturalness before is no longer in her heart.Seeing the girl behind her, who was only about seven or eight years old, but very well-behaved, she naturally fell in love with her.

Hearing that girl obediently called her aunt, and then followed Zhang Xiuniang like a little tail, Lin Baozhu couldn't help laughing.

After thinking about it, she lifted the package with snacks in her hand, and said, "Good boy Zhaodi, let's see what delicious food my aunt brought you." Seeing Zhaodi's curious probe, she consciously opened the paper with a smile There are really a lot of candied fruit and candies in the bag, and Zhaodi, who was timid and embarrassed just now, widened her eyes.

"Come on, Auntie will bring you some candy."

Although she felt that Lin Baozhu was very kind and wanted to eat sweets, she still looked at her mother first, and didn't run over to ask for it like other skinny children.

Zhang Xiuniang smiled at Lin Baozhu with some embarrassment, and then said, "I need to call a few more aunts."

These words allowed Zhaodi to take the food from Lin Baozhu's hands, and for a moment Lin Baozhu felt that Zhang Xiuniang was really a virtuous person.Not only does the yard and house tidy and tidy, but it is also very good at educating children.

After a few people talked for a while, Zhang Xiuniang took Lin Baozhu to the back room, and took away the tea on the small table for the two men to drink.After seeing that the two men were almost done drinking, they made a fuss about cooking.

There is not much rice and noodles at home, but since we have a distinguished guest, we can't save it.So Zhang Xiuniang ruthlessly dug out the last bit of white flour and put it on, and then beat two more eggs to make egg soup.

Although Lin Baozhu was here as a guest, she didn't feel ashamed to stay alone in the back room, so seeing that Zhang Xiuniang and Zhaodi were busy working in the kitchen, she quickly followed to fight.

Said to be a helper, but just said a few words by the way to help burn the fire.When the two of them entered the room with their meals, they heard Shi Dayong talking about Zhang Erbao's eldest son with his tongue slurred after drinking too much.

Zhang Mandun, who was still in high spirits, raised his head and saw his wife coming, he quickly frowned and coughed a few times, seeing that Shi Dayong couldn't stop talking, and even said that he followed his own words to find someone to go to the two lovers in Shilipu Village. Widow Du's words were heard in the ears of the old woman who was watching people's jokes, but she really didn't expect that woman to really block people.His face immediately sank, and he began to avoid his eyes when he looked at his wife, for fear that his daughter-in-law would think that he was a cunning person and would tire of him.

Just thinking of his daughter-in-law's questioning eyes, Zhang Mandun felt uneasy, and immediately stretched out his feet and kicked Shi Dayong, whom You said was proud.Seeing that Shi Dayong was still unresponsive, he smiled and asked considerately: "Brother Zhang, why did you drink too much? Last time I poured you three jars of sorghum wine, but you didn't see your legs go weak."

Seeing Shi Dayong talking more and more, Zhang Mandun really felt that he couldn't look directly at him.At the moment, he just held a large bowl full of wine to cover his face, so as not to let Shi Dayong expose his old self again.

After all, Zhang Xiuniang who came in was a woman, so she was more careful. She saw Zhang Mandun's embarrassed expression and his man's tongue out after drinking too much.Then look at Lin Baozhu who just came in to deliver food, with a curious and puzzled expression on his face, thinking that his man may have another old problem and grin after drinking too much, so he immediately took two steps forward and talked to Lin Baozhu with a smile Come on.

"Don't talk to him, drink a few cups of cat urine and talk will have no limit." Then, he went to push Shi Dayong, and asked Zhaodi to help wash the cloth towel for Shi Dayong to wipe his face.

Seeing his daughter-in-law coming to reprimand him, Shi Dayong just smiled silly at her, and then asked Zhaodi to say what he said to be a good girl.In fact, Shi Dayong also had a hard life. He originally had parents, but firstly, his parents looked down on his daughter-in-law and couldn't bear children, and secondly, they always thought it was a big deal for him to work in the yamen, and they always made troubles. He also planned to use filial piety to suppress him and marry a younger one to carry on the family.

But how could he do such unconscionable things, the daughter-in-law didn't have a son, but that was also because she hurt her body when she recruited a son for her own birth.What's more, since his daughter-in-law married him, she took care of the elderly, took care of the whole family, took care of all kinds of things in the family, and even swallowed her anger for herself, all of which he owed to his wife.If this is the case, he will find another woman, then he is really not worthy of being a man.

Having said that, back then, Shi Dayong personally begged his wife to marry him, but he would be a heartbreaker in a few years, and he really couldn't do that kind of thing.He doesn't understand any major principles, but he also knows that a wife of dross should not be abandoned.No matter how bad the daughter-in-law is, even if he no longer has the throbbing of the past, he asked for it back, and there is absolutely no reason to abandon it.

It was also because of all kinds of troubles inside that Shi Dayong resigned from the job of the county government and went to Anping Town as a small policeman.Those who lead the family in this way can be regarded as far away from their parents who love to manipulate others and brothers who always take things seriously.

After dinner, the sun was also towards the west, and seeing Shi Dayong was really drunk, Zhang Mantun and Lin Baozhu also left.

Xu Shi teased Zhaodi before, making the timid little girl feel happy.Or maybe Lin Baozhu's snacks played a role. The daughter who was timid when they first met, now trotted all the way to the alley, and asked Lin Baozhu in a low voice if she would come next time with a blushing face.
