farmer's husband

Chapter 55

After finally dragging Mrs. Wang to the next street, the two let go.

Mrs. Wang still looked displeased. "Why are you dragging me? I haven't finished talking to him yet. His stuff is bad! I don't know what his stuff is made of? Those girls and wives in the village are stupid, listen to him talking nonsense Take it seriously after a few words, I'm not that stupid! If you didn't stop me, I would have ruined his business by now!"

"Mother, forget it. Even if you say these words, they won't believe them. Instead, they think that you can't afford to make trouble on purpose." Chai Dong said slowly.

Wang's eyes widened. "You also think I said that because I was reluctant to spend money on your daughter-in-law?"

Now, Mrs. Wang is getting angry with Chai Dong more and more times. It's not the same as usual. Whatever my son says is right, and what his son says is what he says.This should be a good sign, Harue thought to himself.

But isn't it?Her mother-in-law did that because she didn't want to spend money!Especially when spending money on yourself.

Chai Dong didn't expect that Mrs. Wang would ask such a question back.He frowned and shook his head immediately: "Of course not."

Wang groaned. "Just put it that way, when I don't know what you think? But now, I want to pay for her to buy those messy things, dreaming! When will she return the two or four coins, what? Time to talk about spending money for her!"

Chunzhi quickly lowered his head.

Chai Dong also coughed twice. "Mom, it's a holiday today, let's not talk about that, shall we?"

Wang pouted. "If you don't say it, you won't say it." Then he walked forward in a hurry.

Chun Zhi and Chai Dong hurriedly followed, and the young couple walked side by side without knowing it.

"What Mother said is true." When walking with her, Chai Dong suddenly said something.

Chunzhi was taken aback. "What are you talking about? What did your mother say?"

"The things on the stall just now are not very good. If you can't wear them, you'd better not wear them on your body." Chai Dong said in a low voice, "I'd rather be naked than mess around with those messy things. Later, when there are people at home I've got the money, and I'll go to the silver building to pay for it."

Chun Zhi's face felt hot again.

"I didn't say that I insisted on those! I just saw it, and it didn't mean anything else." She whispered.

"Oh, I see." Chai Dong nodded, his face still so calm.

Seeing this, Chun Zhi felt a little downcast for some reason.

This little rascal actually took it seriously when he heard what he said, and then didn't say anything!He hates it!
She scolded him quietly in her heart, and she suddenly realized - what are you doing?Well done, why are you still blaming him for a trivial matter!He didn't owe him anything at all, but he still owed him three taels of silver!

Immediately afterwards, Harue couldn't help frowning again - she found that she seemed to have changed.Especially her attitude towards Chai Dong has changed more and more these days, and it has become weird, so strange that she almost doesn't understand what she is doing!What are you thinking about in your mind?

"what happened to you?"

Chai Dong's voice came from next to his ear.Chun Zhi raised his head, only to realize that Chai Dong had already walked to the front, he was looking at him fixedly, but he was still standing there stupidly, really like a second idiot.

Chunzhi quickly lowered his head. "It's nothing." He lowered his head and quickly raised his heels.

Although today is the Lantern Festival, the town is much more lively than when they came here in the past, but this excitement has nothing to do with them.After Wang exchanged the money with a handkerchief purse, she went to the pen and ink shop to buy pen, ink and paper for Chai Dong as usual, and then went to the rice noodle shop to buy noodles, and spent all the money she had on hand. clean.

And this time, she specially bought an extra piece of ink, two more pens, and a lot more flour and oil.The 65 Wen that she earned today was not enough, and in the end she took another [-] or [-] Wen out of her pocket.

After buying these, Chai Dong carried the basket in his hand as usual, and the family decided to go home.

As they walked outside, Harue heard another meowing sound.She hurriedly turned her head to look, and at a glance she saw a snow-white cat poking its head out from a sedan chair in front.One blue eye and the other green stared at Chun Zhi for a moment, and it kept barking, and its two front paws kept trying to move forward, as if it wanted to get out of the sedan chair.

But the people in the sedan chair hugged her tightly, not allowing it to fulfill its wish at all.

"Xiao Bai!" Chun Zhi blurted out.

Meow meow meow!
When the white cat heard the sound, it barked even louder.

But at this moment, Chai Dong grabbed her arm.

"Let's go." He said, and pulled her away forcefully.

Of course, Wang Shi also noticed the situation in front of her, so she hurriedly urged Chun Zhi. "Go, go! Don't get involved with those people, they are not good things!"

The figure of the family leaving in a hurry fell into the eyes of the people in the sedan chair, and the girl in the sedan chair gave a chuckle.

She forcefully pulled the cat back and held it in her arms before hooking the corners of her mouth. "Even if they are a little self-aware, they didn't come here to use Xue'er to get close. Otherwise, I have a hundred ways to kill them!"

Of course Chun Zhi and the others didn't hear this.

In fact, seeing the white cat in the sedan chair, the cat's body was clean, and its long, soft fur was also fluffy, so she knew it was well taken care of, so she felt relieved.

She quickly put the cat behind her and hurried on the road with Wangshi Chaidong.

On the way back, they were not so lucky to get a ride.Wang was also reluctant to spend money on a bullock cart, and it took the family another hour to get home.

Along the way, Wang couldn't help observing Chai Dong's situation.Seeing Chai Dong walking such a long distance with such a heavy basket, she only blushed and panted, but she didn't look too tired, and she couldn't be happier.

Today at the rice noodle shop, Mrs. Wang specially weighed half a catty of glutinous rice noodles.When she got home, she added water and kneaded the noodles, kneading the glutinous rice noodles into Yuanxiao dumplings the size of a thumbnail, and then boiled a pot of water to cook the Yuanxiao dumplings.When the dumplings were all floating on the water, she asked Chun Zhi to turn off the fire on the stove, then filled the pot with dumplings, divided them into three bowls, sprinkled a little sugar in each bowl, and this was their Lantern Festival.

Not surprisingly, Chai Dong got the biggest bowl again.

However, Chunzhi's bowl also contained a dozen Lantern Festivals.She took the bowl, but she was not in a hurry to eat Yuanxiao, but took a sip of the soup. The rich noodle soup slid down her throat with a sweet taste, making her close her eyes comfortably.

Then she picked up another Lantern Festival, ate half of it herself, and gave the other half to Xiao Sanzi.

Although Xiaosanzi now eats the same meal with Chun Zhi every day, pasta is still rare.So when it smelled the aroma of the pasta, it rushed towards it, and swallowed it in its mouth without caring about the heat.Then, it was scalded and whined, but even so, it was reluctant to spit out the thing that got into its mouth, and still just kept it in its mouth and whined, scorching around the room.

"Tch, it's so stupid!" Seeing Wang Shi, she couldn't help laughing at Xiao Sanzi again.

Harue frowned upon hearing this.But looking at Xiao Sanzi's appearance, she couldn't help but laugh too.It's so stupid, she also thinks it's funny!

Seeing that both their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were smiling, Chai Dong hooked the corners of his mouth, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

The atmosphere in the room immediately became more harmonious.

To cook the Lantern Festival this time, Mrs. Wang boiled a large pot of water.Of course they couldn't finish drinking so much water, and after filling up the Lantern Festival, Chunzhi sprinkled a bunch of wild vegetables in it.After eating the Lantern Festival, the pot was cooked, and Chun Zhi put the wild vegetable soup in a pot, put it in a corner of the yard, and meowed a few times in his mouth, and after a while he heard a few light meows The sound of footsteps came from the roof, and the wild cats all around heard the sound coming.

Chunzhi retreated immediately, and the cats all came to the side of the basin and began to lick the big bowl of noodle soup to cook wild vegetables.

For such a scene, Wang simply pretended not to have seen it.Of course, Chai Dong was also noncommittal.

But this time, when Chun Zhi settled the cats, when she went back to her room, she unexpectedly saw Wang Shi and Chai Dong mother and son sitting there.As soon as she entered the door, the eyes of the mother and son turned to her side in unison.

Chunzhi's little heart couldn't help jumping wildly several times.

"Mother, Xianggong, why are you looking at me like that?" She asked in a low voice.

Chai Dong pursed his lips and said nothing, and Mrs. Wang said: "I was discussing with my son just now that he would go to the ready-made exam. We thought about it for a long time. Originally, I wanted to go with him, but now we are alone at home. I can't go away because of the pile of things. So I thought, I might as well ask you to follow him and serve him!"

what?
Chunzhi was stunned.
