peasant young lady

Chapter 51

"Sister-in-law, do you know how to make mouth fat?" Yang Lihua was completely stunned. This sister-in-law seems to be a little too powerful.

Cheng Xia nodded, "I used to do it at my mother's house, and I'll make it for you when I get home."

Cheng Xia found out that this excuse was really good. At her mother's house, she said she learned it from her husband's family, and at her husband's house, she said that she learned it from her mother's family.

Looking at the agreed place, Cheng Xia apologized to Uncle Tian in embarrassment. Uncle Tian is a simple and honest farmer, he looks a bit like Grandpa Lizheng, and his simplicity reveals a little sincerity, which is very comfortable looks.

Uncle Tian waved his hand politely, "What did Miss Xia say, it's not time yet, so it doesn't matter."

"Why isn't it time?" An aunt sitting in the back of the car was anxious, "I've been waiting for half an hour. Even if I walk back, I should be home. I'm waiting for her here, my little grandson They're all starving."

"Then why don't you walk back!" Uncle Tian said angrily, and turned his head to let Cheng Xia and the others get into the car and start driving.

The aunt was so angry that she was blocked, so she said to Uncle Tian angrily, "You are so partial to this girl, isn't it because she didn't marry into your family? Let me tell you, your family just doesn't like Cheng Qiu anymore." , your son wants to marry someone else, and he did that immoral thing, no matter how nice you are to this girl, it doesn't belong to your family."

"Fart your mother!" Uncle Tian blushed and replied with a thick neck, "I like to sit, but I don't like to sit and walk on my own."

The aunt shut up completely, after all, it was Lizheng's car, and she was not allowed to pay for it, and she just wanted to take advantage of it, she really didn't want to let her go.

But what the aunt said just now made Lin Xiu blush with embarrassment, and even covered Yang Lihua's ears next to her. After all, she was still a big girl, so it was inappropriate to hear these words.

But Cheng Xia suddenly understood a problem that he couldn't figure out before. Cheng Xia and Tian Dazhi were in love with each other, and the parents of both families were also interested. Cheng Qiu still used this kind of indiscriminate means, just like her brother forcibly taking Qian Pan, and she also cooked cooked rice with uncooked rice regardless of her reputation. You must know that ancient people valued fame and festivals. A dynasty that believes in "starving to death is a small matter, but injustice is a big matter".

You know, Hai Rui, a famous upright official during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, was starved to death by Hai Rui just because his five-year-old daughter ate a piece of cake given by a boy servant.

Although Yao Shuxiang's "Jianzhibian" of the Ming Dynasty and Zhou Lianggong's "Book Shadow" of the Qing Dynasty that recorded this matter are unofficial histories, and there is no record of "Hai Rui killing women" in official history, they are widely circulated among the common people , which is enough to show that the Ming Dynasty was much more conservative than the previous dynasty.

Cheng Qiu actually put aside his own fame and resorted to such tricks in order to marry Tian Dazhi, I am afraid that the Tian family will only recognize it.

Could it be that this is the reason why Grandpa Li Zheng and Uncle Tian treat him well?Forget it, who cares, anyway, it was about Cheng Xia before.

All the way home, Mrs. Chen had been waiting at the gate of the fence yard holding Xiaolong who was eating a piece of candied winter melon. When Xiaolong saw them coming back, he ran over and threw himself into Lin Xiu's arms.

Yang Dalang was at home, but Lietou Yang and Yang Erlang were still missing, it was already noon when they arrived home, Cheng Xia took out all the things she bought, she took the ten packs of candy back to her room, and put the rice paper she bought on Yang Dalang's desk, Let Lin Xiu put the rice, noodles and meat on the stove, and they all eat together anyway, there is no problem of who is hiding and not letting them eat.

Seeing the hairpin and earrings that Yang Lihua bought, Mrs. Chen couldn't help scolding her. Yang Lihua was in high spirits, so she ignored her.Lin Xiu's aggrieved appearance rarely made Mrs. Chen a little angry, "You just watched her spend fifty coins, and you don't know how to keep a little to bring back."

Lin Xiu held back his mouth and wanted to cry, Xiaolong hurried to Lin Xiu's arms and patted her hand lightly, then looked back at Chen's baby and said childishly, "Grandma, I'm hungry."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chen quickly responded and brought out the steamed buns and cold dishes that had been warming up on the stove for a long time. Only then did Cheng Xia remember that she had just bought sixteen steamed buns in the basket in the room, so Quickly took them out and shared one vegetarian bun and one meat bun, Xiaolong was small but there were two, and there were four left, Cheng Xia handed it to Mrs Chen, "Mother will keep it for Erlang and Dad, wait for them to come back to eat. "

"Hey, hey," Chen was so excited that she almost cried, she raised her eyes to look at Yang Dalang, seeing that he didn't say anything, she quickly put it in the cabinet in the back room and locked it, lest Yang Lihua secretly take it and eat it.

The whole family can't eat any white flour all year round, let alone vegetarian and meat buns, especially Xiaolong, who has never tasted meat buns since he was born, and his little nose sucked it up and down. Stop, just reluctant to take a sip, Cheng Xia wanted to laugh and felt pitiful, "Xiaolong, if you don't eat it, you won't be able to eat it when your father comes back." Cheng Xia could only threaten him.

When Xiaolong heard it, he couldn't care less about smelling it, so he couldn't wait to take a bite, his little face wrinkled together in an instant, and he said with a smile, "Ma'am, it's delicious."

Yang Lihua glanced at him angrily, "Only your uncle knows whether your aunt is delicious or not, you little brat knows a lot."

Cheng Xia had a bun stuck in her throat and couldn't get it up or down, her face was flushed, Yang Dalang quickly poured a glass of water for her to go down.

Seeing that Cheng Xia was fine, Mrs. Chen turned her head and slapped Yang Lihua on the head, "What are you talking about, girl, do you want to get married? Don't think about eating at home for the rest of your life, our family can't afford you. "

"Mom," Yang Lihua stepped back and said displeasedly, "I don't need you to support me, and I won't be willing to keep me if you want to keep me."

After Yang Lihua finished speaking, she took the bun she hadn't finished eating, turned around and went out into her room.

As a result, before Cheng Xia finished his meal, Yang Lihua came out gracefully again, "Sister-in-law, didn't you say that you can make lip balm, so let's do it now?"

Yang Dalang, who was just about to put down the bowls and chopsticks, glanced at Cheng Xia sideways, and Cheng Xia grinned at him, "I did it when I was at my mother's house." After speaking, he quickly put down the bowls and chopsticks and ran out.

It wasn't until he took Yang Lihua out of the house with his backpack on his back that Cheng Xia patted his beating heart a little bit. Good guy, I always feel that Yang Dalang has double perspective eyes. Every time he looks at her like that, she feels that she is about to be seen through, so he Fleeing.

Really, what's the big deal, the next time he dares to look at her like that, Cheng Xia vows to stare back, no one is afraid of anyone.

"Sister-in-law, you and elder brother are a bit strange." Although Yang Lihua didn't know what Cheng Xia took her to the mountain for, she obediently followed her for her own sake.

"Strange? Why is it strange?" Cheng Xia said with a guilty conscience.

"I always feel that after you enter the door, you spend a lot more time seeing your eldest brother. I used to feel that you only took a look at dinner, but now you can always see your eldest brother at home." Yang Lihua nodded affirmatively, "That's it, and Seeing that the eldest brother is not so cold anymore, I used to feel chilly all over when he glanced at me, but now he is a little gentle."

Cheng Xia smiled awkwardly, "Is it that exaggerated?"

"Yes," Yang Lihua was very serious, "Xiaolong didn't dare to approach the big brother before, but you see, when we first got home, the big brother handed Xiaolong a piece of candied winter melon that we left at home. I didn't see this before. scene."

"Oh?" Cheng Xia was a little curious, "Was he always cold before?"

"Yeah," Yang Lihua turned her eyes, and said with some reminiscence, "I dare not talk to my elder brother since I was a child. My elder brother didn't like to talk since he was a child. He didn't talk to my father or get close to us. He seldom speaks to his mother, anyway, I hardly see him speak."

so cold?
Yang Lihua continued, "Furthermore, father and mother are also very strange. No matter how angry father is with us, he would never touch my elder brother when he beat mother or me and my second brother. Mother is even more strange. She never hugged us. We went to play with the eldest brother, that is, we took the initiative to get close to the eldest brother. My mother took me and the second brother away, and then explained to us that we are not allowed to get close to the eldest brother. So I and the second brother are very afraid of the eldest brother. , want to get close, but dare not." Yang Lihua still stroked her chest with lingering fear.

"How old is Da Lang?" Cheng Xia asked as he walked up the mountain.

Yang Lihua thought about it carefully before answering, "My mother said it should be around twenty, but I don't know the details."

"What, you don't know?" There are no siblings who can't remember how old they are.

Yang Lihua thought she didn't believe it, and emphasized it again, "I really don't know, my mother won't tell me, and she won't tell me when we ask, so I don't dare to ask."

This Yang Dalang is really a mystery.

Blessed from his heart, Cheng Xia suddenly remembered what Yang Lihua blurted out when Yang Lihua quarreled with headhunter Chen on the day of the rainstorm. He seemed to have mentioned that Chen is a broken shoe?

"Lihua, did mother ever marry someone before marrying father?" Cheng Xia asked cautiously, after all it's not good to discuss matters of elders in private.

Yang Lihua didn't think anything of it, and while pawing the weeds on the road up the mountain, she unconsciously replied, "Mother was married before, and my elder brother was brought here. Father felt that he couldn't hold his head up, so he kept mocking mother. She always beats and scolds, mother also feels that she is inferior to others, so she dare not say a word when she is beaten by father." Yang Lihua shrugged, "every time mother is beaten by father, she takes her anger out on me. , thinking that if I were a boy, she would be able to hold her head up even more in front of Daddy."

It seems that Yang Lihua often refuted Chen's, and she was often angry before.

Yang Lihua saw Cheng Xia stopped in the rose bushes in the forbidden area of ​​death, and asked cautiously, "Sister-in-law, why did you bring me here?"

Seeing her frightened look, Cheng Xia suddenly chuckled, "Don't you want lip balm? How can you not pick roses?"
