peasant woman headed home

Chapter 75

The first rain in early winter fell unconsciously last night.It has been going down until now and has no intention of stopping.The slight coolness in the rain makes people feel the chill of winter.Hongxiu wrapped her clothes tightly around her body, and closed the door gently.

In the kitchen, Liu Huangshi and Liu Yun were already stewing the meat. Hongxiu walked forward with a smile, "Mother, why do you wake up so early? Winter is coming, so it's better to lie down in bed."

"I'm old, and I can't sleep for long." Liu Huang was busy, and responded casually. Fuer seemed to think of something, and added, "Xiaoyun is also old enough to learn these chores. Otherwise , who wants to marry her?"

Hongxiu seems to understand but does not understand, and feels that it is a bit difficult to chat with some educated women in ancient times. Is there something in the words or is there something in the words?She also noticed Liu Jing's abnormality yesterday.Then he responded, "Xiaoyun is so young, how could he think of marrying so far away, besides, at the age of marriage, with our family like Xiaoyun, the threshold has not been broken. "Hehe, in fact, Hongxiu felt that saying this to a seven-year-old girl really burned her heart.

Liu Yun blushed thoroughly, "Mom, I'm going to wake up third brother." After speaking, he ran out of the kitchen.

"Well, no matter what, Xiaoyun has to learn a handicraft. Unlike you, a good embroidery hand, copying books is easy now, but Xiaoyun, then you can only learn these rough jobs." Liu Huang's hands moved He kept talking, but the end of his eyes flicked towards Hongxiu from time to time.

She felt a little awkward when she heard this, "Why is this so? I looked at Xiaoyun, but she is much better than me. If she wants to learn, she can go to my room. There are some pens and paper in the room. Teach her the word Mother, do you still use millet porridge and tendon cakes today? Xiaorui said that he would bring a few pieces of oil cakes to town to eat, he has not been hungry lately." Hongxiu changed the subject stubbornly, laughed dryly a few times, and then I went to the side to tinker with breakfast for a few days.

Liu Huang's heart was not going well, and she wanted to put down the work in hand, but she couldn't bear to ruin today's business, so she held her breath and continued to work.

Hongxiu thinks it's inexplicable, life is a little better and why is Liu Huang slandering?Talking yin and yang is weird, wasn't it good a while ago, what's going on now?Don't be menopausal, it's cloudy and cloudy, she tells the sky in her heart, where can she find such a difficult mother-in-law?If it is an ordinary rural old woman, it would be so difficult.

No matter what the two of them thought in their hearts, on the surface everyone had breakfast in a friendly manner, and then everyone - what should we do?

Liu Jing went to the field to clean up the weeds, and Hongxiu started to practice embroidery in the room, and - try to make clothes.She took out some fabrics from the dowry. Winter is coming, and it is necessary to make two sets of clothes for Liu Jing and the others. She thought about the steps of making clothes in her memory, and did it step by step, tailoring, sewing... A little rough, but should still be wearable.Hongxiu lay on the bed a little discouraged.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, my aunt is here..." Liu Yun ran into the room, "My aunt is here, mother asked me to call you over." Liu Yun saw the messy pile of fabrics on the table, "Hey, sister-in-law, what are you doing?" What are you doing?"

(⊙o⊙)... Hongxiu was busy putting away the various rags on the table, "It's nothing, I haven't practiced handcrafts for a long time, and I want to make a dress for your brother. My sister-in-law is here? I'm leaving now. " Said and pulled Liu Yun to go out. - still too careless

"Sister Xiu, you're here." As soon as Hongxiu entered the door, Wang greeted her. She was wearing a red satin jacket and a green satin waistcoat, and she looked really festive. She glanced at Liu Huangshi, and winked at her, "It's because the in-laws and mother-in-law are kind. How can you hide in the room like a daughter-in-law? Those who know you are working, but those who don't know think you are lazy." In fact, Wang Shi also wanted to mention the meaning of red embroidery.Of course, to remind Liu Huangshi Hongxiu that all the work is for the Liu family, don't embarrass her.

"It's mine or not." Hongxiu understood what Wang meant.

Liu Huangshi interjected: "Talk to your sister-in-law, I'll go and have a look in the vegetable garden. Xiaoyun, come with me."

Only Wang and Hongxiu remained in the hall.

"Sister-in-law, what's going on at home?" Hongxiu asked Wang's family. It's been more than half a year since they got married, and her family didn't come to Liu's house at any other time except when they brought some things over during festivals.

"Haha, it's a happy event!" Mrs. Wang winked at Hongxiu, "You're going to have a new second sister-in-law. A girl from the same village as me. She looks like a good sister-in-law to get along with. Your second brother seems to like it very much." look."

"When did it happen, ah, I remember my mother mentioned it to me last time, it's the girl next door, the one who keeps filial piety?"

"It's her, everyone said she was filial, so mother let me take a look." Wang's eyebrows were beaming, Hongxiu didn't know what she was so happy for? "Although their family background is not very good, their character is still trustworthy. Look, our family went to propose a marriage yesterday. She was very generous and gave me a piece of clothing. Look, does it look good?"

It turned out to be like this - Hongxiu naturally praised her clothes a lot, and the joy in her eyes increased a bit.
