Chapter 14

The third aunt nodded, "Second sister-in-law, what did I lie to you for? If the family is really separated, what I have will be what you have, and there is no division between us."

The two muttered for a while, and then went back to doing things by themselves.

The sisters-in-law over here are talking about Liu's natal family wanting to save food, and they have to spend troubles. Over there, Old Liutou has already smoked two bags of cigarettes, and smiled at Old Qintou: "Brother, don't worry about your work." , we have to go back, there is still a lot of work at home. My daughter and I finally caught up with the free time to eat." After speaking, he got up and said goodbye to his daughter.

Old Qintou hurriedly said: "Brother, what's the rush, eat before leaving, everything is ready. There is an old sister-in-law and a child uncle at home, so don't worry about it."

Old Liutou couldn't say anything, so he greeted Liu Xu to go home quickly.Hearing Lao Liutou said that he was going to leave, Mrs. Zhang heaved a sigh of relief, it seemed that those few eggs were saved.

The boss of Liu Xu was not happy, originally he wanted to stay here and let Mrs. Zhang spend money, cook some delicious food, and let Xiuyao and others follow her.

She poked her father, and Old Liu understood, and said with a smile: "Dear family, you are very busy, so we won't bother you. Isn't the child's grandma celebrating her birthday in two days? His grandma misses her child, saying that she always dreamed of Yao Yao, let Dayeniang take Yaoyao back to stay for two days. When you come back, it’s the busy farming season, so it won’t delay your work.”

The little girl went to dig wild vegetables as soon as she fell into the water, which made his grandfather feel distressed, so he simply had a thick skin, and he didn't believe that Mrs. Zhang would not give this face.

Sure enough, Mrs. Zhang felt pain in her heart. Although she went to her mother's house and didn't eat the food at home, but Mrs. Liu still needed to embroider the soles of her shoes, Xiuyao didn't care, even if she didn't dig wild vegetables, it was fine. meal.

If the eldest daughter-in-law goes, the youngest grandson must also be brought along, even after going, the old Liu family will not be willing to give him food, if they give him the same food as adults, it will not hurt the child.

In such a moment, a lot of thoughts flashed through Zhang's mind, and the smile on his face was a little stiff. Over there, Old Qin glared at her, and hurriedly said: "Oh, old sister-in-law's birthday, we should go to celebrate it." , there are many things at home, we can't leave, so let the child's mother take the child to have a look, and we have done our best."

Speaking of which, in a few days, the birthdays of grandma, Liu Shi, and Qin Yang will be consecutive, and they are all seasons when willows sprout and peach blossoms bloom, but most of the Qin family don’t have birthdays, and they don’t have the time or the financial resources. Only Qin Yang eats a bowl of noodles and a poached egg for his birthday, and no one else has it.

Seeing her agreeing, Lao Liutou smiled and said, "It's not a whole birthday, I don't care that much. It's just a meal when my house is closed." Ordinary people, unless it's their [-]th birthday, basically However, even if it's a birthday, it's a joy at home, and there is no place to treat guests. My family doesn't have the financial resources, and everyone doesn't have the effort.

Mrs. Liu hurriedly said: "Mother, I haven't been back for a long time. This time, I will go back and have a look before the busy farming season. I can embroider the insoles even if I go, so there is no delay."

Liu Xu was not happy, curled her lips, and the old Liu pouted at her, Liu Xu quickly smiled and said, "Yes, I can still help my sister embroider."

Mrs. Zhang smiled immediately: "Oh, why bother my aunt, let them go after tidying up these two days."

Seeing that the matter was over, Lao Liutou hurriedly greeted Liu Xu to go home. He still had to go home to eat, his stomach was growling, and Mrs. Zhang refused to eat if he stayed any longer. His stomach would be embarrassing.You can't just say you're not hungry while your stomach is growling.I knew that when I went out, I had a pancake in my arms.But even if it is hidden, it is estimated that it will be taken out for the children.

Old Liutou sighed, drove the donkey out and let Liu Xu get into the car, and told the Liu family to go back quickly without sending them off.

The donkey was still holding green grass in its mouth, and walked quickly, Liu Xu hummed: "Father, you are kind, why don't you stay for a meal."

Old Liutou sighed: "Are we still short of their meal? After eating it, your sister and the child will feel sad. I didn't see her mother-in-law's face, and I was a little apprehensive when the croaking was so long."

Liu Xu said angrily: "I'm not afraid, it's you and mother who are used to them, and they have to come regularly to deliver something, and I'm not happy to let my sister go home for two days."

Old Liu nodded and said: "Yaya, that's not what you said. We can't care about this girl after she's married. She's a member of her in-law's family. It's their life. You're happy for a while. Let's make a fuss and break up." What will happen to your sister and children after they die? They eat in the same pot as a family, how much can you manage?"

Liu Xu was still not happy, and yelled: "Then why did you and mother find such a family for my sister? They don't understand at all, they are so poor, and they drag each other like God. It's really annoying."

Old Liutou laughed aloud, "Didn't you not be so poor before? Later, the old lady got sick and died and had to go to the funeral. Your sister and her mother-in-law got sick a few times and spent a lot of money."

Liu Xu snorted, "She spends money when she's sick? Yaoyao fell into the river and she didn't even invite a doctor. I think she's really looking forward to..."

"Yaya!" Old Liutou interrupted her, and said solemnly: "Every family has its own hard-to-recite scriptures, and each family lives its own life. Your sister-in-laws come to our house and they are members of our family. Just go to her mother's house and say, can we be happy? If there is something really wrong, people will turn to the Qin family and say that we are troublesome. What father can do is to walk around often and let your sister take care of you. Take the child to stay at home for two days, improve the food, look at Yaoyao's dry and thin child, it's really pitiful."

Liu Xu's eyes were red, she wiped her tears, and then she heard her father laughing and said: "Don't tell me, the old lady feeds Yang Yang like a lamb, white and fat, really rare."

Liu Xu smiled through tears, "Father, this kid is doing well now, he didn't hit his sister for a long time, and he went around Yaoyao, I saw him secretly giving peach cakes to his sister."

Old Liutou said with emotion: "The child has grown up, and his sister fell into the river for him, so he can't be grateful."

Liu Xu curled her lips and said, "Father, don't tell me, this child was instigated by his mother, I don't think it is my sister's baby. His mother always instigates that my sister doesn't love him if he doesn't eat it." Yes, sometimes I really want to beat him up."

Old Liu looked back at her, "Yaya, didn't you say that Yangyang and Yaoyao are getting better, this time I came to see that Yaoyao is different."

Liu Xu laughed loudly and said: "Father, when you talk about you, you always say that you are honest, hey, hey, it's my mother who said you, but it's slippery. You said you just smoked two bags of cigarettes at the door, and you put the old Qin's pot I have seen through everything about the bottom of the pan, what is different about Yaoyao, let me hear what you tell me."

Old Liutou yelled, and said with a smile: "I feel that girl is different, she used to be afraid when she saw people, trembling, shy and not generous, just afraid that her mother would beat and scold her, now When she greeted me, she was generous, her eyes were bright, and when she saw her, she didn't run away like a mouse or a cat."

Liu Xu smiled and said: "Father, don't say it, I also felt it, did you fall into the river once, and the little girl became enlightened?"

Old Liutou hummed, "You must have grown up. I think this girl has more eyes than the second child, and is more honest than the third child." Speaking of the second girl, she is very straightforward, and the third girl has too many eyes. This little girl was more to his liking.

Liu Xu also laughed at her father, who looks simple and honest on the outside, but actually has a vicious eye and a lot of heart, just like what mother said, "Slippery but not slippery".

And Xiuyao also felt this way, every time my grandfather came, he brought something with him, he laughed and never stayed for a meal, it was really insightful for Zhang.She heard Mrs. Zhang still talking to the second aunt and the third aunt, "You, Uncle Liu, are like this every time. Let Liufan never stop eating. I know that this is because he is considerate of us. He knows how to be poor. Easy, bring something with you every time."

The second aunt pulled her face and was not happy, and the third aunt smiled and said: "Mother, speaking of it, this Uncle Liu is really kind. Every time he comes here, it is either rice or noodles. He also gives us a few catties of ribs for soup. You might as well Just send two catties of pork belly, there are fat and thin, this is going to go to the ground, and it can also cheer for Dad and the others."

These words hit Mrs. Zhang's mind. When she saw the big bone, she murmured in her heart, give a bone, give a bone, what kind of bone to give, it's not suitable for food, why not give two catties of fat meat, and you can also cook vegetables Come on water.

But what people give is for nothing. I can't tell people clearly that I want meat but not bones. This is not something my family picks for nothing.Speaking of which, this old Liutou is obviously quite discerning, so why didn't he understand that giving meat is better than giving bones, it seems that he has to beat his daughter-in-law.

The meal was ready, Mrs. Zhang asked the wives to set the chopsticks on the table, and she said to Mrs. Liu, "Dayeniang, come and help me pick up these noodle rolls into the noodle basket."

Mrs. Liu was using the dustpan outside the door to shake the bean seeds. Seeing this, she handed the winnow to Xiuqin, who put on an apron to help Mrs. Zhang do the work.

Mrs. Zhang said with a smile: "Da Yeniang, the jar at home is about to be empty, I have to fish for wheat and grind it, and I have to roll out cakes before the cold food."

Mrs. Liu hummed, "Then I will catch the wheat tomorrow, dry it quickly, and send it to my father's house for grinding. I will roll the cakes before I go back to my mother's house." In fact, where is the noodle pot at home empty?You have to wait ten days to catch the wheat, and if you send it so far, you have to borrow a car or an animal. It's better to push it yourself in the mill of your own village.The mother-in-law has a lot of spare time to do things this time, and she will never wait until the fire is imminent, so I'm afraid it's just an introduction for something.

San Shun came in from outside, and said happily: "Sister-in-law makes pancakes, okay, sister-in-law's pancakes are delicious, thin and chewy, rolled with green onions and soy sauce, oh, don't mention how delicious they are."

Mrs. Zhang slapped him and said with a smile: "I know how to eat, let's go to the kang to eat."
