Farmhouse Golden Phoenix

Chapter 3

After dinner, Su Qinghe quickly cleaned up the dishes, both Su Jingsen and Su Zhangshi looked relieved.Su Zhiping dragged two piles of peanuts from the side of the courtyard wall, and Su Zhian quickly brought out a basket that was almost as tall as him from the storage room.

Several people gathered around the basket, each grabbed two handfuls of peanut seedlings, and started picking peanuts under the moonlight in the yard.

When Su Qinghe came out after washing the pots and bowls, there was already a layer of white peanuts in the basket.

"Father, let me tell you a story." Su Zhian picked a few handfuls of peanuts, turned to look at Su Jingsen, Su Jingsen took the peanut seedlings and inspected them carefully, squinting and said, "Tell a story? Let me think about it."

Before he could think of it, a voice came from outside the gate: "Fourth Uncle, Fourth Aunt?"

"Big sister is here, I'm going to open the door." Su Qinghe had just heard this voice today, and she was very familiar with it. She immediately jumped up and ran to the door excitedly, and opened the door directly. There were three people standing outside the door. Young men and women, one is the eldest sister whom I met today.

"Brother, sister-in-law." Su Qinghe didn't dare to speak, for fear of shouting wrongly, if it was the second uncle and second aunt, or someone the eldest sister met on the road, it would be embarrassing to shout out.Fortunately, Su Jingsen spoke out first, and called Su Qinghe: "Xiao He, go and pour some water for your uncle and aunt."

Su Qinghe responded, and walked into the house bouncing around. She had no choice but to walk fast with her small body. Running was too ugly.

"Xiao He is cured?" the short middle-aged woman, that is, the eldest aunt asked, Su Zhang nodded with a smile, and asked Su Zhian to move a small bench out of the room: "Well, it's okay, it's scary Damn me, I can't let this girl go to the water's edge in the future."

"Children are just naughty, and you were too used to Xiaohe before." The auntie sat down and helped pick peanuts and said, "I have to keep her in the future, do some housework at home or learn to embroider." .”

Saying that, she leaned into Su Zhang's ear and whispered: "Do you know? The embroidery workshop in the town is going to recruit workers. Xiao He started learning early, and in a few years, she will definitely be recruited."

Mrs. Su Zhang nodded: "Sister-in-law said that Xiao He has to learn embroidery in the future. It is Chunhua from the next door village. After staying in the embroidery workshop for two years, she finally married Butcher Zhang."

Although Butcher Zhang is a pig killer, but he is rich, and the girls who are waiting to be married in several nearby villages all stare at Butcher Zhang, but Butcher Zhang found Chunhua from the neighboring village.

"By the way, how old are the embroidery workshop recruits this time? Will Qingfang and Qinghua go?" After Su Zhang finished speaking, she asked again, and Su Li shook her head: "If they are 12 to 16 years old, I would like The two of them were sent there, but it's not like you don't know that Xiaofang will be going out next year, and Xiaohua is clumsy and doesn't have that ability."

"Is Xiaofen from the second elder brother's family at the right age?" Su Zhang said immediately: "Did the second sister-in-law say to send Xiaofen there?"

"Speaking of which, you don't know, a few days ago, the second younger brother and sister took Xiaofen to sign up." Su Li was a little unhappy: "This is not a bad thing, did you still use the second younger brother to hide it?" ? Her family Xiaofen has made money, is it possible that she is still worried about us borrowing it?"

"Oh, sister-in-law, it's not that you don't know the temperament of the second sister-in-law. She is not bad, but she likes to eat alone when she does things, and she likes to show off. I think the United States will have to tell you in a few days. If there is someone like the kidnapper's daughter-in-law Sister-in-law, you are more troublesome." Su Zhang laughed, and Su Li burst out laughing, and whispered in Su Zhang's ear: "You don't know, yesterday, Wang Xing But after entering the kidnapper's house, he only came out in the middle of the night."

"Really?" Mrs. Su Zhang was surprised, and Mrs. Su Li nodded again and again: "That is, what did I lie to you for? Let me tell you, the kidnapper and his mother said it herself this morning."

"The kidnapper's mother is too much." Su Zhang said that she was thirsty, and turned her head to bring water to drink. She caught sight of Su Qinghe, paused, and chased Su Qinghe: "Xiaohe, go to sleep quickly, your body is just fine, Don't get sick again."

Su Qinghe pouted, turned to look at Su Qingfang, everyone was a girl, how could Su Qingfang listen to such gossip?

Probably because the displeasure on her face was too obvious, the eldest aunt laughed: "You are still young, your elder sister will go out next year, it is more beneficial to listen to some gossip, and she will know what to do when she goes to her in-law's house in the future See how people behave."

This small mountain village is not a big mansion, and a foster mother can be invited.The girls in this mountain village, when they reach a certain age, listen to "stories" with their mothers for a few years, and they will naturally become sensible.

Of course, the prerequisite is that the mother can guide the girl correctly, otherwise, it will be a bad thing if the girl loses her temper.

Su Qinghe also heard her grandma say this in her previous life, so she understood it in an instant.After thinking about it, I really can't hold on to my body, and I'm sleepy and tired right now, so I might as well go back to sleep earlier.

Moreover, since I'm not there, their voices might be louder. They should be audible in my own room, right?
Thinking about it, Su Qinghe yawned: "Then I'm going to sleep, good night uncle, good night aunt, good night father, good night mother, good night big sister, good night big brother, good night second brother."

After a series of reports, Su Li looked at Su Zhang in surprise: "Xiao He has recovered from her illness, and she is much more sensible than before."

Mrs. Su Zhang looked proud: "That's right, our Xiaohe was sensible before, but she was too stubborn, and she knew what to do and what not to do after she got sick."

Su Qinghe had a black line on her forehead, went to the kitchen and waited, scooped up half a basin of hot water, turned it into lukewarm water, washed her face and feet, then stepped on her shoes and went back to her room.There were very few things in the bedroom, not even a bronze mirror, only a comb was thrown on the table, and half of the teeth were missing.

After I combed my hair and got under the quilt, while listening to the movement outside, I was thinking about what to do to make money this season.First of all, this is October. In ancient times, October was very cold, and there was frost.

The field has just harvested peanuts and sorghum, and it is said that some soybeans are also planted at home.When the harvest is over, all the wheat will be planted. She hasn't figured out what dynasty this year is, and she doesn't know what crops are there in this time and space.

Otherwise, I'd better wait until tomorrow, first go around the village, then go around the town, collect materials, and then think about making money?
"What did you say about the third brother?" In the yard, Su Jingsen was talking to Su Jingqing. Su Jingqing was a little taciturn, and when she heard her younger brother's question, she just shook her head: "I don't know, mother is a little hesitant. The elder sister is not bad, and she is Xiaolan's aunt. She will definitely not treat Xiaolan badly in the future, but the disadvantage is that the older sister of the third younger sibling can't give birth to a child, and the third younger brother doesn't even have an heir. The third younger brother is willing. Tian also took Xiaolan to the family home of the third sibling a few times, but the attitude there is hard to say."

"It's hard to say?" Su Jingsen was a little puzzled. Although their Su family is not a wealthy family, they have many brothers who can help each other, and the family is separated. There is no need to worry about what will happen to the family in the future. The most important thing is The younger brother in the family is a scholar, married a girl from the town, and opened a shop in the town, so he will be able to support brothers in the future. This kind of family background is not bad.More importantly, the third younger brother has no son. Although he is a stepmother, if he has a son in the future, he will be the pillar of the family. Doesn't the family of the third younger sibling look down upon her?

Su Jingqing sighed, grabbed a handful of peanuts and said: "The Huang Yuanwai in the town wants to take a concubine, and their family wants to send their daughter over there."

Su Jingsen was silent, and Su Li snorted at the side: "Their family has a pair of rich eyes. In the past, when the third sibling just passed away, they would take Xiaolan to live there for a few days from time to time. No, it's yellow. If outsiders want to take concubines, our family members won’t come out to see guests.”

Mrs. Su Zhang comforted her: "Sister-in-law, you should be happy. She is not happy to come into our house, and our family is not happy to marry her. Thanks to the incident of Yuanwai Huang, otherwise we will not find out that she is a bad person until we get married." , can’t send people back.”

Su Li thought for a while, then nodded happily: "What the fourth sibling said is true, I just don't like how powerful she is." She is the eldest sister-in-law of the family, and in the future, if anyone has something to do, she will always say a few words Yes, she might not be able to manage a brother and sister who are really interested in money, and fortunately they didn't marry into the family.

Everyone outside was gossiping happily, Su Qinghe only listened to it for a while, then couldn't control her drowsiness, and slowly fell asleep.

When she woke up the next day, Su Jingsen had already gone to the field with Su Zhang, and Su Zhian was the only one left at home.Seeing Su Qinghe getting up, Su Zhian hurriedly said: "Little sister, mother left porridge in the pot, if you want to drink, I'll go and warm it up for you."

"Well, thank you, second brother." Su Qinghe nodded obediently, and while Su Zhian went to the kitchen to light a fire, she went to the water tank to wash her face.By the way, inquire about the situation: "Second brother, why is there more water in the tank?"

"Did you forget? Dad gets up every morning to fetch water from the well at the head of the village." Su Zhian took the time to turn his head and said while stuffing firewood into the stove. Su Qinghe stuck out her tongue and made a grimace: "Didn't I forget?" Is it? After dinner, let's go to the mountain to pick wild vegetables?"

"It's just your small arms and legs. If you can't walk, I have to carry it on your back. Otherwise, I'll take you to the river to pick up duck eggs." Su Zhian thought for a while before saying, Su Qinghe nodded, anyway, her purpose is to go out, As long as the ultimate goal is achieved.

After eating, Su Qinghe stepped on the stool to wash the pots and wash the dishes. After tidying up, the two brothers and sisters went out together.Passing by a certain house, Su Zhi'an still shouted at the top of his voice, "Xiaohu, are you home? I went to the river to pick up duck eggs."

No one answered, and Su Zhian didn't care, and led Su Qinghe to continue walking, calling four or five houses, and finally when he called for puppy, a seven or eight-year-old boy came out: "Come here, wait for me, I'll take my sister too."
