Peasant woman

Chapter 21

Xu Cao didn't argue with him, she blushed and let him hug her onto the kang.

Until this moment, her hanging heart finally fell to the ground.Fugui went to the deep mountains for the past few days, and she was very worried. There were also some hunters in the village, and sometimes they would not come back after hunting in the deep mountains.

Fu Gui carried Xu Cao onto the kang, covered her with a quilt, saw Miao Miao sleeping soundly inside, and whispered in Xu Cao's ear: "I've been in the mountains for a few days, I'll go take a bath first. "

Fugui came back soon after washing, and got under the bed in his underwear, and hugged Xu Cao tightly in his arms when he was warm.

Xu Cao blushed and let him hold her. After a while, she asked softly, "Is there nothing going on in the mountains these days?"

Fugui Xu Caoxiang rubbed against the soft neck, "It's okay, we have hunted a wild boar and come back, we don't have to worry about it this winter. I thought that since my father agreed to separate the family, we must not be able to separate it with my mother around." What's the matter, although we have a few acres of land at home, we don't have to think about it. This wild boar is enough for our family of three to eat for a winter. I'm going to dig a cellar in the backyard tomorrow, and we can put whatever food we have in it. Well, remember Lock the door of the cellar if you live in it." He was very concerned about the fact that his mother and three younger siblings bullied his daughter-in-law when he was away.

In the dark, the man frowned slightly, "Daughter-in-law, I can only wrong you now, we have to live with mother first, and next year I will save some money, and we will go to the village to build a few big houses. At that time, our family of three will live in a big house."

Xu Cao covered her mouth and snickered, "Okay." Her voice was soft.As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly remembered something, and said, "Fugui, we have ten taels of silver now, should we move out earlier?"

"No," Fu Gui refused without even thinking about it, "You earned the ten taels of silver, we will keep it, and we can use it in case of emergencies. We won't move the ten taels of silver."

Xu Cao hesitated, turned around, faced the burly man's chest, and said softly: "Fugui, I want to save the ten taels of silver to buy a piece of land. Now we can't count on the few acres of land at home. I want to buy a piece of land." Plant something in the field."

She was still thinking about the pile of potatoes she had piled up in the corner of the house, which would sprout and plant tomorrow in the spring.We must get a piece of land out.

"It's all up to you." Fugui's voice was a little low and hasty.

Xu Cao only felt that he was hugging him even tighter, and there was something hard pressing against his lower abdomen.Her face turned red all of a sudden, "Fufugui, let's go to bed quickly, we still have a lot of things to do when we get up tomorrow morning."

"Okay, let's go to bed."

Early the next morning, Xu Cao was awakened by the sound outside.He looked up at the sky outside the window, but it was only a moment.

"Third brother and sister, I already know what happened yesterday. I don't care what happens to you and third brother in the future, but today you must apologize to my wife." Fugui's voice was a little loud, and the entire Yang family heard it.

Xu Cao hurriedly dressed and got up, got off the kang, hesitated for a while, just stood by the door, and didn't go out.

Along the crack of the door, she saw Niu and Fugui standing in the yard.

In the kitchen, Xiao An and Shen Shi heard the sound, went to the yard to take a look, ignored it, and went back to the kitchen.

In the yard, Mrs. Niu looked around anxiously, and then said to Fugui: "Brother, I made a mistake in this matter. I already know that I made a mistake. I will definitely not do it again in the future. My husband has already scolded me. How about you?" Let it go this time?"

Fugui snorted, his face darkened, "How can you forget it, you have to apologize today."

Just as he was talking, Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Yang also walked out of the room. Seeing Fugui and Mrs. Niu, Mrs. Chen stared at Mrs. Niu with a dark face, hating her so much, if it wasn't for her yesterday, there was no need to make trouble She separated from the boss, and now such a big wild boar has nothing to do with her.Thinking that in the future, she would never get a penny for the money that the boss went to sell wild game in the town, and her teeth itch with hatred.Seeing that the boss wants her to apologize now, it is natural to add insult to injury. "The third family, if it weren't for you yesterday, we wouldn't have separated from the boss. Now you have completely ruined the relationship between our family. Even if Saburo divorces you, you have to tell the boss today." Sorry!"

Fugui glanced at Chen Shi, hesitated to speak, thinking that she was always the elder, and this time it was because of Niu Shi, so it is not easy to blame her.

Niu's eyes were reddened by several people, and he went to look at Yang Xiaotong who had just come out of the room with teary eyes, and said pitifully: "Mr....I..."

Yang Xiaotong had a cold face, "What happened yesterday was all because of you, you must apologize to sister-in-law!"

Niu wiped away tears and looked at him with tears in his eyes, "If I apologize to my sister-in-law and serve my parents well in the future, and don't eat too much and be lazy, my husband, can you forgive me?"

The third younger brother of the Yang family showed a look of hesitation, and there was some struggle between his expressions. Before he could say anything, Mrs. Chen on the side had already screamed: "No! Sanlang, since you said it, you can't take it back. !"

Seeing this, Xu Cao opened the door and went out.Fugui saw her and dragged her to Niu Shi, "I don't care if my third brother will sleep with you, but now you have to apologize to my wife!"

Niu's eyes were red, and he looked at Xu Cao with only prayer and regret, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, all of this is my fault, I shouldn't have casually entered your and eldest brother's room, and I shouldn't have browsed your files secretly. Box, you shouldn't be holding that brocade box, you shouldn't have let your mother know about the brocade box. Sister-in-law, I know I'm sorry, can you forgive me once?"

Xu Cao looked at her dryly, not knowing what to say.Before she could say anything, Fugui had already pulled her towards the wild boar in the corner of the courtyard, "Since you apologized, we will leave this matter alone."

After saying that, he turned his head and smiled at Xu Cao: "Daughter-in-law, let's deal with the wild boar today, so it can be marinated or smoked, so we should deal with it as soon as possible."

Chen looked at the wild boar weighing about [-] catties lying on the ground, her eyes were filled with greed.After thinking about it, he hurriedly came to Fugui and Xu Cao, "Fugui, daughter-in-law of everyone, I was confused by that little hoof yesterday. Boss, it is something left by your mother. How could mother want it?" Don't you? Or let's not separate, okay? We are all one family, what do we do when we separate?"

Father Yang coughed twice with a low expression.

Fugui and Xu Cao are not fools, so how could they not separate.This Chen's idea is quite beautiful, regardless of the family, the money earned by the rich and the prey brought back, so that she can continue to share.

On Niu's side, Yang Xiaotong had already dragged her into the kitchen, "Daughter-in-law, help make breakfast first."

When Niu heard this, he immediately wiped his eyes dry, and looked at Yang Xiaotong in surprise, "Sir, do you forgive me?"

"You go ahead and make breakfast first."

Niu happily went into the kitchen to make breakfast.

But on Fugui's side, as soon as Mrs. Chen said that, Fugui hurriedly said: "Mother, since Dad said that we are going to separate, we can also separate. Besides, the houses have been changed, and the stove will soon be separated." It's built."

When Mrs. Chen heard this, her face turned black, and she pointed to the wild boar on the ground and said, "Okay, since you want to divide the family, I will share half of the wild boar!"

Seeing the embarrassing appearance of his old lady, Old Man Yang went out with a dark face.He knew that the old woman would definitely get nothing from the boss, so he dared to go out for a stroll.

Sure enough, when Fugui heard this, he laughed, "Mother, in this case, can we divide the family's land into two acres?"

Chen's face became even darker, "No! It's okay to share the pots and pans with you."

Fugui asked Xu Cao to enter the house to take out her butcher's knife, then turned to Chen Shi and said, "Mother, unless you exchange two acres of land for half of the wild boar meat, it won't work."

Chen was furious, "Then you get the wild boar ready first, give me half of it, and when your father comes back and give me the land deed, how about I give it to you?"

Fu Gui shook his head, "No." He is not really a fool, when his mother asked him for money in the past, he gave it all.Now that mother doesn't like his daughter-in-law and makes things difficult for her, naturally he won't be so stupid.

Mrs. Chen was about to die of anger. She didn't know where the stupid wealth had gone, and how she was so shrewd now.Hmph, it must be the pillow wind blown by that little bastard's hooves, it's really hateful!
Forget it, separate the family, they don't want to get anything from the family anymore!Chen lifted her foot angrily and left.

Fugui started to get busy.The two masons who built the stove also came, both from the same village. Seeing that Fugui was gutting the wild boar, they hurriedly said, "Hey, Lengzi Yang, it's not bad to hunt such a big wild boar."

Fugui chuckled, "I went hunting in the mountains a few days ago, thanks to Heizi."

The man sighed, "That's right, your Heizi is really amazing, what a hunting dog!"

Fugui smiled silly again, "Uncle Dezi, Brother Qingshan, please finish building the stove quickly, so I can treat you to a meal then."

Tokuko and Aoyama laughed quickly, "Come on, fool, that's what you said. The work can be finished today, and in two days, when the stove is dry, you can cook and eat."

Several people talked again, and then went into the kitchen to continue working.

Seeing that she was fine, Xu Cao planned to go to her natal home to borrow a few wooden pots for pork, and then go to her natal home to get some pancakes to eat. She and Fugui hadn't eaten all morning.

Seeing Xu Cao coming, Mrs. Li hurriedly said, "Why are you here again? Haven't you had breakfast yet?"

Xu Cao nodded, "Well, Fugui and I didn't eat it, and I'm going to borrow a few wooden basins from my mother to put pork in. Fugui hunted a wild boar in the mountains and came back, and the eldest one is already here."

Mrs. Li was overjoyed, and hurried into the house to bring out a few wooden basins, "You can't take it, I asked your father to bring it over for you, baked pancakes in the morning, and you will take some back to eat later, don't be hungry. Your mother-in-law is really too, she didn't give you anything, and she didn't let you eat anywhere in the past few days, it's too much!"

Xu Cao didn't mind, "Mom, what's the matter, you better figure it out, or you won't be able to tell when the time comes. If you don't eat it, don't eat it. I'll come back with Fugui for two days and eat it."

Mrs. Li nodded, "That's fine, you're coming over for dinner with Fugui tonight, don't forget."

Taking pancakes and wooden basin, Xu Cao returned to Yang's house.

After Fugui ate the pancakes, he resumed his work.After working for two hours, it was considered that it was all over. One wild boar fully filled four large wooden basins.

Knowing that Fugui is back, Qiaoer hurried over and bought a pig hind leg from Xu Cao. Now the price of pork in the town is [-] Wen a catty, while Fugui only costs [-] Wen.Qiaoer happily went back with the pig's hind legs.

The villagers saw Qiao Er coming out of Fugui's house carrying a pig's hind legs, and knew that Fugui must have hunted a big game, so they rushed over to buy pork from Fugui.

Fugui kept two pig legs, and left half of the pig's meat, and moved the rest to the yard, and said to everyone: "The meat is fifteen yuan a catty, and the pig's head is thirteen yuan a catty."

It's almost snowing today, and the price of pork in the town may increase. Fugui's pork is not expensive, and everyone can accept it, but there are many people who watch it, but few people buy it.After all, the people in the village are not rich.

Someone saw it and hurriedly said: "Fugui, how about weighing two catties for me first, and I will give you money tomorrow?"
