Chapter 69

Ding Xiang and Wei Dashan didn't speak to each other after they got home, because they had already had dinner at Meng's house, Ding Xiang went into the kitchen and called Hu's mother, and then went into his room.

Seeing that Ding Xiang was not in high spirits, Mrs. Hu pulled Wei Dashan aside who had drooped her head as soon as she entered the door, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with Ding Xiang, who made her unhappy?"

Wei Dashan pointed to himself, "Me."

Mrs. Hu poked him hard on the forehead, "Stupid son, didn't you tell your father and I to treat Ding Xiang well before, why did you get confused? You made Ding Xiang unhappy when you just got married, how will the husband and wife get along in the future? "

Wei Dashan blamed himself and said, "I don't want to make Ding Xiang unhappy, and I'm thinking about how to make her happy. Or... I'll take her to the county tomorrow, and visit her sister and my brother by the way." , maybe she will be happy when she sees her sister."

Mrs. Hu frowned, "It's a good idea, but are you going to be so stiff with Ding Xiang all the time tonight?"

Wei Dashan said in embarrassment: "Mother, I don't dare to enter the room now, I'm worried that if I don't say something well, it will make her unhappy."

Hu was annoyed, "Aren't you usually very capable, why don't you have the guts? You just got married, do you want to sleep with Ding Xiang in a separate room tonight?"

Wei Dashan really thought so. He had been thinking about how to make Ding Xiang happy all the way, but after much deliberation, he could only wait until tomorrow morning to take Ding Xiang to the county. As for tonight, he really planned to sleep in his brother's room.

Of course he also wanted to reconcile with Ding Xiang tonight and sleep with her in his arms, but he was worried that if his heart softened, he would agree to what Ding Xiang said in the afternoon.

Mrs. Hu couldn't figure out what could cause the young couple to quarrel. Seeing that her son didn't dare to enter the room, she was even more annoyed, and scolded: "If you dare to enter your brother's room to sleep, I will beat you out with a broom!"

Wei Dashan was in a hurry, "Mother, keep your voice down, don't make Ding Xiang unhappy by shouting. If it was something else, I would have already obeyed her, so how could I make her unhappy, but this is about the ration of our family. , I really dare not obey her. Although our family has accepted Mr. Nan’s love and I received so much money from him on the day we got married, it is a favor after all, not to mention that it will be reserved for the elder brother’s marriage, even if there is no You can’t use this money to squander it, maybe you have to save it for future favors. Our family can’t afford to work hard on growing food, but Ding Xiang said... said..."

Hu frowned, "What did Ding Xiang say?"

Wei Dashan is a clever person, he was afraid that if he said something badly, his mother would also say something about Ding Xiang, which would add fuel to the flames.He rolled his eyes and said, "Ding Xiang... she is worried that I will work too hard inside and out, and she said that I will plant more land next year, so..."

Mrs. Hu laughed when she heard this, "Yo, in this way, Lilac loves you. Just promise her now, and you have to plant as much as you should plant in the next year. Don't let her go to the field with you. How will she know?" How much did you plant? Hurry up, go into the house and tell her that you will obey her in everything!"

Mrs. Hu directly pushed Wei Dashan to the door of the room, then opened the door and said to the inside: "Ding Xiang, Dashan has a dull mind and can't think about some things. Don't worry about him. He will listen to you in the future. Dashan, come in quickly." !"

As soon as Mrs. Hu pushed, Wei Dashan had no choice but to come in. In fact, he also wanted to come in, but he was afraid that Ding Xiang would be angry if he saw him.

But when he entered the door, he found that Ding Xiang had a calm face and was folding new clothes for him.

"Mother, don't worry, I'm not angry with Dashan now. Dashan, come and sit down, I have something to tell you." In fact, Ding Xiang also figured it out, even if the two of them have something they can't discuss, don't be in a hurry , even if she follows Dashan and chooses a wrong path, as long as it is right in Dashan's eyes, she should not complain.

Didn't she already make up her mind before getting married? From now on, she should cooperate with him in everything, think differently, look at the surrounding things from his perspective, and arrange her future life.She just played the role of secretly guiding or pointing out, and she couldn't cover the sky with her own hands. It's not good to ask Wei Dashan to listen to her in everything. In the long run, the depression in Wei Dashan's heart will become heavier and heavier.

After thinking about this, she greeted Wei Dashan to sit beside her, with a gentle smile on her face.

"Dashan, tell me, how many acres of land our family has, what kind of food should we grow?"

Wei Dashan was a little bit overwhelmed for a while. Today, when he was at Meng's house, he mentioned to his parents-in-law that he would start planting in the spring of the coming year. He said that he would not plant a single piece of land for cloves, but that he would just buy food and eat it.In his opinion, not growing food is tantamount to the collapse of the sky, and every family is eager to grow some food so that they can have a full meal in the coming year. If they want to use money to buy food, how much will it cost?

What's more, no one in Qingshan Town or even Liangfeng Town has ever heard of a family that doesn't grow food.Even the landlord's family and some wealthy households have tenants who grow grain and hand it over.Those who run shops in the town also have several acres of land to grow food in their families. Even Mr. Su, who is a teacher, came to Qingshan Town and bought a few acres of land for his son to take care of.

Anyway, from Wei Dashan's point of view, if a farmer does not grow food, he is not doing his job properly, and his family may starve to death.

But Ding Xiang said that he didn't plant any land, and leased it to other families to plant it. The family did some small business, and he built a house outside to earn some wages, which was enough to support his family.But he didn't know, selling tofu may not be a long-term business, everyone might not buy it after trying it out, and he doesn't have a lot of work to build houses, and it's rare that a few companies ask him to do it a year.

He didn't know if he didn't grow food at home, and he also knew that neither his parents nor his eldest brother would agree to this matter.

Now seeing Ding Xiang's gentle expression and a slight smile, he let go of the worries in his heart.

"Ding Xiang, have you figured it out, our family... still needs to grow some food. The lady I just married can't go hungry, she has to have enough food."

As he spoke, he put his arms around Ding Xiang's shoulders, as long as Ding Xiang smiled, he felt comfortable all over, and he believed that Ding Xiang would understand him.

Ding Xiang smiled and nodded, "Grow it, you can plant as much as you want. Originally... I thought that the yield of growing grain is low, and I can only eat enough after working hard all year round, and I dare not eat on a tight stomach. In the last disaster year, it would be a waste of work for a year, so I said that doing some small business may not only be enough to eat but also save money. If you have money, you will not worry about not being able to buy food. If you can’t buy it in the town, you can do it. Go to the county to buy, and the cost of food and clothing can be more relaxed. But when you think about it carefully, there are losses and profits in business, and not everyone can make money. Since our family is a farmer, we need to grow some food. As for I will listen to you as much as you plant, and you will take all the big ideas in the family, how can I, a woman, be the master of a big family with just a word of mouth."

When she said this, Wei Dashan's heart softened, and he suddenly felt that he was too persistent.I said before that I would listen to Ding Xiang in everything, but I just got married, and he confronted Ding Xiang for the first big thing, isn't it too outrageous?

"Ding Xiang, are you really not angry with me?" He squeezed Ding Xiang's shoulders tighter with his arms.

Ding Xiang shook her head, "I just didn't figure it out at the time, and I wasn't angry with you. Now that I figured it out, I'm even less likely to be angry with you. I know you were worried that your family would starve if you didn't farm, and you would It is a big joke to be told by the villagers that when you marry a woman, you will blindly listen to her ideas and starve the whole family to death!"

Wei Dashan sneered when he heard the sound, and Ding Xiang couldn't help giggling as he said it himself, "In order to prevent you from worrying about it and the whole family from worrying about it, I shouldn't let you farm the land either. .”

Wei Dashan was so moved that his heart felt soft, like eating a piece of sweet candy, which was melting in his mouth at this moment, making him feel refreshed physically and mentally.

"You are really my good wife! Half of our family grows food, and the other half is leased to a few families with less land. Then I will try my best to get the work, and I have to use my brains to do small business, how about it?"

Ding Xiang nodded and said softly, "Okay."

As soon as she finished speaking, Wei Dashan pressed her down and kissed her cheek anxiously.

"Well... let's wash it off first. I put some powder on my face today. Don't you feel the smell of powder when you kiss it?"

Wei Dashan shook his head with a drunken look, "As long as it is on your body, I think it smells good."

Ding Xiang pouted and pushed him, but he got up obediently, and then quickly ran out to boil water.
