Rebirth Farmhouse

Chapter 36

For a few days in a row, everyone went to work in the fields, and no one mowed the grass, so the pigs had no grass to eat, but the food was not good either.

That night Mrs. Zhang said to her second aunt and third aunt, "The pigweed is gone. Second sister-in-law and third sister-in-law, both of you, go and fetch a basket tomorrow morning."

The second aunt was displeased when she heard this, and said: "Mother, we all go to the ground, so we are not equally tired."

Mrs. Zhang pulled her face down, "Did you carry the water or use your strength? It's not that you are asked to pull the plow. Look at you."

The second aunt didn't dare to talk back directly, so she said: "Father said that the livestock will be our turn for the next two days, and tomorrow we will start to use the plow to dig the ridges without using a big plow." That means that since there is no need for a big plow, then Men are not so tired anymore. Those who don't plan or carry water and those who don't know how to hold the plow, let's cut grass.

Qin Ye, who came out from the west room, said with a smile: "Grandma, let my second and third aunts rest, they are all very tired, and I will go back early in the morning to hunt pigweed, so as not to delay their food."

The second aunt murmured about what kind of pigs to raise when people couldn't afford to eat them. She had nothing to eat after raising pigs.

Mrs. Zhang didn't say anything when she saw someone taking the initiative to kill pigweed.

On the second day, Xiuyao got off the kang to wash, and then went out to take a breath of fresh space, and saw her eldest brother coming from the other side with grass on his back. He was only 16 years old, and his body had not fully grown, and the big grass on his back covered his whole body All covered.

The dewdrops on the green grass shone slightly in the morning light, crystal clear.

Xiuyao rushed up to meet her, "Brother, why did you go mowing the grass so early, you're so tired that you don't have a good rest."

Qin Ye said with a smile: "Brother is not tired, but my younger sister is. You are growing up and you need to eat and sleep enough." The two arrived at the door and spread the grass to dry. The dewy grass cannot be given to livestock. Eat it directly, otherwise it is easy to have diarrhea.

Qin Ye looked at Xiuyao and said with a smile: "Little sister, brother has something delicious in his pocket." Then he patted the small gray cloth pocket on his waist.

Xiuyao rushed forward with a cry, reached in with her small hand to touch, what are the small grains?

"Ah. It's the jujube!" Xiuyao whispered happily, and took out the jujube, which turned out to be some red, yellow-green, small jujube with pockmarks on it.

"Brother, we can still pick this one this season." She was also thinking that the children had already picked it all up.

Qin Ye smiled and said, "There are some places that others cannot reach, so I cut them down with a sickle and picked them up."

Can't others pick it up?Isn't that some dangerous place?Like some steep riverside or something.She went to look at the grass again, it was lush and tall, and it was not the flat grass they usually cut.

No wonder the elder brother can mow so much grass in such a short time. There are so many places that others dare not go.

Xiuyao felt sore in her heart, she picked a few big and red wild jujubes and stuffed them for her eldest brother, "Brother, don't mow grass in such a dangerous place in the future, it's okay to have more or less."

It would be worrying if there was an accident, and the family didn't have money to see a doctor.

Qin Ye smiled very kindly, "Don't be afraid, whoever of us who work in a big family has not practiced some unique skills, otherwise people will look down on us."

Xiuyao nodded, this is true, the second aunt and the third aunt are jealous all day long that the elder brother can work in the rich family, and there are rewards, it sounds decent and easy, but in fact there are so many young men, why do they only want the elder brother?

This is because the eldest brother has something extraordinary.

Xiuyao helped her elder brother spread out the grass, and then went home to find her third sister to share the jujube.

Xiu Ting had heard Qin Ye come back and had been lying on the crack of the door watching for a long time. She immediately chased Xiu Yao into the room and blocked her and Xiu Rong inside. Seeing that they were eating sour dates, she said loudly: "I also to eat."

Xiurong and Xiuyao ignored her, why is this man so thick-skinned, didn't he just had a fight, who wants to talk to them.

Xiu Ting is just a little girl, she doesn't have that kind of consciousness at all, it will be fine today and tomorrow, and I still have to get together to eat, "That's my elder brother, my mother said, if there is no separation, a family is a family, your elder brother is My brother, what’s yours is mine, bring it quickly.”

Xiurong scoffed, "What's mine is yours, so what's yours is also mine. Give me the creaking tiger your grandfather gave you back then."

Xiu Ting immediately said: "No, it was given to me by my grandfather."

Xiurong sneered, "Isn't it a family? Your grandfather is my grandfather."

Xiuting quit, Xiurong took Xiuyao and left, ignoring her, just in time Xiuli also came out of the room, looked at Xiuyao with wide eyes, "Sister Yaoyao, I want it too."

Xiuyao smiled, touched a small handful and gave it to her, and Xiuli happily ate it beside her.

And Xiuting also chased out from the house to see if she would give to Xiuli or not to her, and she became more and more noisy. When Liu saw it, she told Xiurong not to tease her sister, but to give her some.Xiu Rong reluctantly gave her two, Xiu Ting insisted on thinking too little, and said she would give more to Xiu Li, but knowing that Xiu Rong would not give more, she went to grab Xiu Li's.

Xiuli was made to cry.

At this time, the second aunt also came in when she heard it, slapped Xiuli across the face, and reprimanded: "You little ignorant hoof with shallow eye sockets, you only have two broken jujubes, it's worth it for you, and I'll sell you again."

Mrs. Liu frowned, but still smiled and said: "Children are just quarreling, so it's fine to quarrel today and tomorrow. We adults don't care about it."

The second aunt snorted, but ignored her, and just took Xiuli back to the house to teach her a lesson. Seeing that she had caused trouble, Xiuting ran away in a hurry.

Liu knew why Second Aunt was doing it, the kids were fighting as an excuse, and the time was because she had a lot of kids, and she always felt that they were taking advantage of her, so she was dissatisfied with Da Fang everywhere.

Ever since the maids fought that day, Second Aunt has put on a face as if Dafang owes her a hundred thousand dollars, and has never talked to Liu Shi, and pretended not to see each other when they met, let alone talk.

If the adults in the village fight with each other, they will be embarrassed and jealous, and they will not speak to each other when they turn around, and it often lasts for a year, two, five, or six years.But children are different from adults. Just after the fight, Xiuting and Xiuting can provoke Xiuyao again. They don't feel that they will stop talking after a fight, but they have to keep talking and fighting, and let them treat each other. It is impossible for Xiuyao and others to turn a blind eye, because they are always curious about what Xiuyao and the others want.

But the second aunt didn't want to talk to Dafang, and she didn't want the girls to talk to them either, so she taught the child a lesson.

Xiuxian heard her mother talking to her second aunt, but the second aunt not only didn't say hello, but also pointed at Sang and scolded Huai with a cold face. Looking at Beiwu, she shouted: "I said Er Niangniang, it's not a rainy day, it's just that you're idle and you're playing with the children, and you're still waiting for a lot of work. What did Xiuli do wrong? It's worth your arguing." It's endless."

After she finished speaking, she waited for the second aunt to talk to her, but the second aunt didn't say a word, but Xiuli ran out crying.

Xiuyao waved to her, and Xiuli ran over. Xiuyao wiped her face, and then quietly stuffed a piece of candy into her mouth. head.

When Qin Yang saw it, he didn't push her away like he used to think she was talking to Xiuyao, but said with a generous look: "Why are you crying, I just let you play with my sister in the future, I don't dislike you .”

Beautiful and happy, "I also want to go to the field with my sister, pick flowers and weave baskets."

Qin Yang also clamored to go when he heard it.

I have been planting the land for a few days, and now there is only one river beside the land. There is not much water, and too many people carry water, so I will soon have to line up and squat to scoop it up.

So the old Qin head sent two girls who were younger and couldn't do heavy work to scoop water. Xiuyao and Xiuting couldn't be together, they would fight if they were together, Xiuyao led Xiuli, and Qin Yang naturally followed.

At the beginning, everyone was very orderly. The villagers knew how to give way to each other, and the children scooping water below were playing games while talking and laughing.

Suddenly, a fat and puffy child in a small satin robe and a jade pendant on his waist rushed over, waving his arms and shouting: "Get out of here, get out, who told you to scoop water here, I let you use the water here!" Is there any water?"

Seeing Qin Yang standing in the middle of the road, he stepped forward and pushed Qin Yang to the ground, kicking him.

Qin Yang didn't cry, and kicked him when he got up. That kid was two years older than Qin Yang and was fatter and more vigorous. Qin Yang was naturally no match, and he was soon crushed to the ground.

When Xiuli saw it, she waved a branch to help. The little fat man was slapped by Xiuli, and he quickly turned his head to hide.Qin Yang took the opportunity to grab him, and the little fat man's neck was burning with pain from Qin Yang's grip. He suddenly became angry, and as soon as he whistled, four or five children rushed down from the bank, and beat Qin Yang when they pressed him.

Xiuyao was scooping water over there, surrounded by people behind her and didn't know what was going on behind her, she didn't hear it until someone reminded her.Hearing Qin Yang's yelling, Xiuyao hurriedly threw the water ladle and rushed over. Four or five children pressed Qin Yang to the muddy ground and pressed his chubby face into the muddy water. Qin Yang was weak. He couldn't move, he just kept kicking his little feet.There was also a little fat man riding him, spanking his buttocks and shouting, "You little bastard, how dare you be rude to this young master?"

While Xiuli was being grabbed by her pigtail, her face was pinched while being pinched, making her cry.

Xiuyao became angry all of a sudden, picked up a piece of mud, and "suddenly" smashed it over, first smashed the one holding Xiuli's pigtail, and then smashed the one riding Qin Yang.

Little Fatty is so big, he is always surrounded by stars and moons, and he has never been beaten. When Xiuyao hit him with a clod of mud, he was stunned, and immediately burst into tears. The voice was earth-shattering. .

Someone whispered to Xiuyao: "Yaoyao, you are miserable, you hit the baby bump of Grandpa on Tuesday."
