Peasant woman's day

Chapter 14

"Yes! I listened to my mother! Uncle, Tangtang!" Yuanyuan held her hands together, stretched them out in front of Da Liu, and looked at him eagerly.

Seeing Yuanyuan like this, Fu Rong couldn't help nodding his head with her finger: "It's strange that you keep talking about your big Uncle Liu, you little greedy cat."

Yuanyuan immediately covered up her tears, and lowered her hands dejectedly.Da Liu patted his head, and said to Fu Rong: "Sister Fu Rong, what's the matter. Yuan Yuan is just a child, as long as he likes to eat."

Gu Qingchen squinted his eyes, almost immediately he remembered that this big Liu was the man who hugged Yuanyuan with Fu Rong back then.According to the man's intuition, this big liu probably has more than just a little interest in his wife.Although Fu Rong is now married to him, the scene where the two of them had a happy conversation still made him feel uncomfortable.Gu Qingchen walked up calmly, stretched out his hand and pinned a strand of hair from Furong's ear behind his ear, and said with a soft smile, "Lady, who is this?"

When Furong heard Gu Qingchen's voice, she stopped talking with Da Liu, turned around and smiled at Gu Qingchen, "This is Brother Da Liu. When I was young, I recognized Brother Da Liu's mother as my godmother."

Gu Qingchen still stretched out his hand with a smile on his face: "So it's the lady's brother, and that's my brother. Brother Liu, it's a pleasure to meet you." He intentionally bit the word "brother" heavily.

"Hey, isn't this Furong? Why did you come back today?" Da Liu was about to answer when a female voice sounded behind him.Then, a middle-aged woman who resembled Da Liu came over, and when she saw Gu Qingchen, her eyes lit up: "This is my Rong'er's son. She is really a talent."

The smile on Furong's face faded, and she politely called out: "Mother."

Aunt Liu kept her eyes on Gu Qingchen, and after looking at it for a long time, she said to Fu Rong: "Rong girl, since you're back this time, come and sit at your mother's house. By the way, I just told you Brother Liu Buying a dowry gift. I'm drawing up the list, but I haven't gone to buy it yet. You are a person who has seen the world in the town, so remember to come and help me see it. By the way, when the time comes, you must come to drink your brother Liu What about the wedding wine?"

Da Liu's face suddenly became a little embarrassed, he glanced at Fu Rong with a complicated expression, and said to Aunt Liu: "Mother, let's go back first."

Aunt Liu didn't seem to notice the weird atmosphere at all, she still took Fu Rong's hand and said affectionately: "Speaking of which, you know that woman's family, and they are also from our village, but her family has entered her house. I don't know yet, if I didn't see it that time, I didn't know that our eldest Liu actually fell in love with that girl Chun Juan'er. Rong'er, you and Chun Juan'er are the best friends. How about you ask me , What requirements does her family have, and how much dowry is going to be bought, I will prepare the dowry here."

Fu Rong's heart went cold in an instant: These things were done by the matchmaker, so she deliberately showed her innocence in front of her to remind herself of something.Even though she was thinking so, Furong didn't show her face, she just smiled and took out her hand: "Mother, I didn't see Chun Juan'er when I came back, I just asked, I heard that she went to town. Now I I don't go to the town often, and I haven't seen her. Besides, I'm a younger sister, so I can't tell my brother about the bride price. We haven't visited our uncle and third uncle, godmother, so let's go first. "

After saying that, Furong turned around and left.Gu Qingchen took Yuanyuan, said goodbye to the two, and left with Fu Rong.The smile on Aunt Liu's face collapsed, and she nodded Da Liu's forehead: "Why did I tell you, don't associate with her in the future. Now that she has climbed a high branch, why do you still treat me, a godmother, you? My brother puts it in my eyes. Hmph, so what if I was in the town before, I married a farmer. How can it compare to Chun Juaner, my cousin opened a big cloth shop in the town."

Da Liu was in a mess, turned around and left.Aunt Liu immediately jumped to catch up, Xu Xu was thinking.

Going to Uncle Guo's house was just an excuse, and Furong lost the mood to continue shopping at all, and turned into her small courtyard.She teased Yuanyuan for a while before she felt better.

Lin's made the dinner.Guo Dali deliberately went to the butcher shop at the head of the village to buy a piece of pork belly and several big stick bones.Helped by Furong, she grabbed some pickled vegetables, washed them one by one, and chopped them into small pieces.Lin's knife skills are very good. He cut the boiled pork belly into thin and uniform slices, put ginger and garlic in it, and after the meat exploded, put pickles in it and stir-fried.Everyone in the Guo family likes to eat this dish.Fu Rong helped to choose and wash the vegetables.Lin's specially stewed an old hen. After all the dishes were prepared, the stewed chicken almost melted in the mouth.

Guo Dali put the dining table in the yard because he thought the light in the room was too dark.As soon as the chicken soup was served, the door rang, and Aunt Guo said loudly, "Girl Furong, your uncle heard that you are back, so he came here with me to see you."

Come to see yourself at this point, I'm afraid I'm here to catch up with dinner.Lin's face darkened in an instant, and when he was about to speak, old Guotou said happily: "Dali, go and open the door for your uncle and the others."

Guo Dali responded and went to open the door.As soon as the door opened, Guo Dahai's son, Guo Qing, ran in and stood in front of the table, drooling.Fu Rong looked at the people standing at the door, and couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth: It's really the whole family.

"Brother!" The wrinkles on Old Guo's face were completely twisted into a flower. He stood up immediately and went forward to hold Uncle Guo's hand. "Brother, sister-in-law, why are you here today? Have you eaten yet?" ?”

Aunt Guo's gaze has been on the table several times since she entered the door, and now she hears the words of old Guo Tou, she is in the middle of her heart, but she refuses on her face: "Let's come and have a look at Furong, and we will eat it later when we go back." .”

Seeing that old Guotou was about to speak, Fu Rong suddenly stood up and said with a smile: "Uncle, uncle, brother in the hall, sister-in-law in the hall, how dare you trouble you to come and see me. I came back today to see you first." Yes, because I was not feeling well, I went to the town to see a doctor, and said that I need to buy some medicine to supplement it, and I will take it for a year or so."

Mrs. Guo's wife Zheng's complexion changed suddenly, and she hurriedly pulled the corner of Aunt Guo's clothes.

Furong has been home for so long today, and Mrs. Lin has never heard her mention this matter.Thinking about it, this girl must be playing tricks, how could she not cooperate.Mrs. Lin immediately put on a concerned look: "Yes, although the medicine is not expensive, it is not enough for people to take it for a year or so."

Old Guotou also asked his daughter with concern, and he was relieved when he saw that Furong said that she was just weak and needed to be raised, not a serious illness.He didn't feel that there was anything wrong with the faces of Uncle Guo's family, and he still said: "Brother, since you haven't eaten, let's sit down and eat together."

If old Guotou said this before, then Uncle Guo's family must have climbed up the ladder.But what Furong and Lin said reminded Uncle Guo's family of the 20 taels of silver.Because of Guo Dahai's incident earlier, all the money in the family was searched.What if Furong really wanted to ask them for the 20 taels of silver right away.Uncle Guo scolded Mrs. Guo for her bad idea in his heart, and patted Old Guo on the shoulder with a smile: "Second brother, don't be too busy. The food at home is ready-made. We just came to see my niece Furong. Come tomorrow When it's free, we brothers will have a drink together."

Aunt Guo also hurriedly agreed, only saying that there was still something to do at home, and left.Mrs. Zheng rushed up to hug Guo Qing.Guo Qing put one finger in his mouth and stared intently at the table.When Mrs. Zheng hugged him, Guo Qing quit immediately, and burst into tears, punching and kicking him: "I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat!"

Uncle Guo's face darkened instantly.Zheng's face was full of embarrassment, and his heart was already disturbed. Seeing Guo Qing crying, he slapped him across the face immediately: "Why are you crying? Could it be that the family is still short and you can't afford food? If you want to beg for food from others, you have to pay for it." See if other people's homes take you seriously. Do you think you can't do it in your own home?"

"Ouch, daughter-in-law Hai, that's the wrong word. Isn't the second elder brother's family a direct relative?" A leisurely female voice came from the door.Third Aunt Guo walked over with a handkerchief, put the basket in her hand on the table, and said to Furong with a smile: "Niece Furong, this is the first time you have returned home since you got married. I will see your brother this afternoon." Going to buy meat, I know that you are going to have a good meal tonight. There is nothing there, and you know it in the countryside. These things can be regarded as adding some food for you. You must come to the third aunt's house for dinner at noon tomorrow Oh, Yuanyuan, the third mother-in-law will steam some delicious pastry for you, okay?"

Yuanyuan's eyes narrowed with a smile, and she answered loudly in Gu Qingchen's arms, which made Third Aunt Guo laugh again.

Aunt Guo's expression turned even worse.She has always been at odds with Third Aunt Guo.The separation of the family back then was caused by Third Aunt Guo instigating herself to make a fuss, and in the end she made herself look like a human being inside and out.She made a face to Zheng Shi.Zheng covered Guo Qing's mouth and dragged him out.Unexpectedly, Guo Qing bit his hand, and the ear-splitting cry resounded throughout the courtyard again.

"Looking at brother Qing crying like this, he must be hungry. Haier's daughter-in-law should take Qing brother's house to eat soon. The child is growing up, so he can't be hungry." Third Aunt Guo said Concerned.
