Rebirth of a farmer's daughter

Chapter 44 Liu's scheming

"Sister-in-law." Seeing her hypocritical and purposeful smile, Qianjin felt depressed, and she greeted her coldly, so she didn't bother to look at her.

"Hui'er, call my aunt quickly, I'll make my aunt happy, and I'll buy you a new padded jacket." Regardless of Qianjin's expression, Wang shi took Hui'er's hand and taught with a smile, with a look of urgency.

"Master, what are you talking about?" When Yu Shi heard her words, she immediately lowered her face and shouted unhappily: "The daughter is not married yet, what clothes are you going to buy for Hui'er?"

When Qian Jin heard Wang Shi's words, she also felt very surprised, and looked back at her cheeky and shameless look with raised eyebrows.

In Zhoucun, there is a custom that no matter how old you are, as long as you are not married, you don't have to give gifts or return gifts, so what Wang said is clearly shameless and wants to ask Qianjin for something.

"Mum, it's almost Chinese New Year, everyone is happy, why are you so angry?" Mrs. Wang softly brushed the words back to Mrs. Yu, looked at Qianjin and said with a smile: "Your daughter is not married yet. It's just that she is capable and earns money, which is known to everyone. Now, her nephew is still young, and she needs a lot of money to make a suit of clothes, what are you in a hurry for?"

If it wasn't for Zhou Qianjin's silver, she wouldn't even bother to look at them, hmph, when she got the silver, let's see if they would show her face.

"Sister-in-law, I have earned so much money. I can't even pull a whole suit of clothes by myself. How can I buy them for Hui'er? Besides, Hui'er has it, Juan'er and Min'er must be there, and Jian'er and Hua'er are also indispensable. You think I have earned hundreds or thousands of taels!" Qianjin understands Wang's purpose very well, but she will not foolishly give her silver to someone like Wang.

She only smiled because of the money, otherwise, when she saw herself, it was as if she owed her several million taels.

"Juan'er's clothes are getting too small, so it's good to keep them. It's fine for you to wear them. What kind of clothes are you going to do?" Wang didn't think so. Let Hui Er make a robe, so as not to embarrass our Zhou family!"

"I made it for Hui'er, what about you? Hui'er is your son, right?" Qian Jin looked her up and down, and sneered, "Sister-in-law, don't tell me that you made clothes for yourself, but you didn't give them to me." Huier did it, this really embarrasses the Zhou family!" Wang's top quality is really incomprehensible.

If she guessed right, Mrs. Liu must be standing in the courtyard and eavesdropping. If she agreed to Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Liu would definitely bring Jianer in and make the same request.

I don't want people to live a good year, alas!
Touching the brand-new padded jacket on her body, Mrs. Wang said aggrievedly: "I have been married into the Zhou family for more than ten years, how many clothes have I made in total? I finally saved some money this year, and I rushed to make a suit, and you Nagging...you just say you can do it or not, what are you doing with so many words?"

Isn't it just a matter of a few hundred pennies, she is holding more than one or two taels of silver, so stingy, it really makes people gnash their teeth.If there was no separation, she would have vomited it out long ago.

"Don't do it!" Qian Jin refused her very simply, and when she saw her face changing, she coolly added: "I still want to save money for a dowry!"

"Juan'er hasn't saved a dowry yet, what are you in a hurry for?" Wang asked gritted her teeth.

"What's the difference between me and Juan'er? My parents are getting older, and they won't be able to earn money in the future. If I don't work hard now, I really won't be able to get married in the future!" Qian Jin said seriously, with an extremely serious expression , but seeing Wang's deflated expression, I burst out laughing.

Wang Shi didn't achieve her goal, she was very annoyed, and kept cursing, but Yu Shi and Qian Jin ignored it, they both knew what kind of person Wang was, so they didn't bother to argue with her.

Rice cakes are made of rice, washed with water and soaked overnight, then steamed in a pot until soft and steamed, and when they are solidified into a ball, put them in a stone bowl and let strong people beat each other until all the rice is cooked. It solidifies into a ball and becomes a chewy and sweet rice cake.

Qianjin's family doesn't make many rice cakes, because they don't have much rice, but if they don't make them, they won't be able to do it. They will definitely be pointed out by the villagers, so they save some and make rice cakes.

Regardless of whether the family is separated or not, one man cannot do things like making rice cakes, so the three families help each other... and no matter who makes rice cakes, a few children will gather around, because only at this time can they eat them Soft and warm rice cakes are the happiest day of the year for them.

"Qianjin, what are you doing with the brown sugar in the rice cake?" Shi Yu asked wonderingly when she saw Qianjin put the bought brown sugar into the stone bowl.

"Make brown sugar rice cakes." Qianjin showed a seductive smile, and said sweetly: "Brown sugar water looks good, if brown sugar melts into rice cakes, and the white rice cakes turn red, it must also look good!" In order to test the success of brown sugar rice cakes Or not, she's taking a risk.

She only ordered rice cakes at home, and she used half of them to make brown sugar rice cakes. If it didn't work out, she would wait until her ass was cleaned and beaten!
The two brothers of the Zhou family were kneading the rice cakes with the old man Zhou, and Wang and Liu were watching with their children in their arms. Seeing the rice cakes in the stone bowls gradually changing color, they looked at each other, and doubts flashed in their eyes .

"Mum, what did you put in this rice cake? Why is it red?" They had never seen this color of rice cake, so they asked curiously.

"Yeah, why did it turn red? Is it broken?" Seeing that the sticky rice cake in his hand turned red, Zhou Hong asked with some doubts, fearing that their hard work all morning would be in vain.

"It's not broken, I put something in it, and you guys knead it like this." Qian Jin said calmly without answering what was put in it.

Wang snorted coldly, curled her lips, and didn't take it to heart at all.And Liu's is different, she is reserved and smart, she has her own plans, but she is usually too taciturn, making it easy for people to ignore her.Last time, Qianjin earned more than one or two factors without saying a word, which already surprised her, so she always secretly paid attention to Qianjin's every move.

Today, seeing E'Mu's rice cake changed color again, she took a special look at Qianjin, and seeing Qianjin's expected expression, she became vigilant, always feeling that it was not simple.She didn't speak, just glanced at Hua'er who was standing quietly beside her, and blinked at her...

"Sister, I want to eat red cakes." After receiving her mother's reminder, Hua'er stepped forward and grabbed Qianjin's sleeve, and said timidly.

Hearing Hua'er's words, Qianjin raised her head reflexively and looked at Liu Shi, because Hua'er rarely had contact with her, and without any contact with her interests, Liu Shi took care of her children very strictly and did not allow them to talk to her at all. Qianjin and the others had frequent contacts, including Yu's, so Hua'er suddenly had such intimate contact and requests for her, Qianjin always felt that it was Liu's gesture, not Hua'er's thoughts.

Liu's eyes were fixed on Qianjin all the time, but she didn't expect that she would suddenly look up at her, and she pulled the corner of her mouth stiffly, then turned her gaze to another place, pretending that she accidentally glanced at Qianjin... What is this called? There is no silver 300 taels here.

Liu Shi's actions were noticed by Qian Jin, she held Hua'er's hand and said with a smile: "Wait a while, when the red cake is ready, sister-in-law will bring it for you to eat, okay?"

When Hua'er heard it, she turned her head and looked at her mother, seeing that she was not looking at her, she nodded and said obediently: "Okay!"

Seeing Hua'er's every move followed by paying attention to Liu Shi's eyes and hints, Qianjin's heart was filled with speechlessness.This is just a small village, if you try your best, what will you get in the end?Hua'er, Jian'er learned these methods at a young age under Liu's influence, which is probably not a good sign.
