The happy life of peasant woman Wan Xiaoliu

Chapter 47 Midnight Singing
"There's rice bran behind the door, get some water and sprinkle some." Wan Xiaoliu said while cooking.

"it is good."

The last dish was fried river fish, Wan Xiaoliu asked Wan Mofei to go down to the roof to stay for a while, Wan Mofei went out silently.

Fried river fish with chili, so choking that Wan Xiaojiu also ran out, and the uncle also came out to smoke yellow cigarettes.Wan Xiaoliu was left alone in the room, feeling hot and choking, tears streaming down his face.Wan Mofei pursed his lips and watched silently.

After Wan Xiaoliu finished cooking the rice and was stuffy in the pot, he came out to take a breath, and the smell in the room was almost gone.

"What kind of chili is so hot in your house?" the uncle asked Wan Xiaoliu.

"It's the seedlings planted by Aunt Li. I begged for some to plant." Wan Xiaoliu fetched a basin of water and washed his hands and face.

"Oh, her family's is from outside the village. It's more spicy. Your aunt also made a few cuttings. It's too spicy. I asked her to keep the chili sauce to eat." The uncle tapped the yellow chimney on the stone.

"Well, I only keep the chili sauce at home, it's really too spicy. The rice should be ready, let's eat, Xiaojiu is already hungry." Wan Xiaoliu moved the table again when he entered the room, Wan Mofei wiped the table, Wipe the stool, take the chopsticks, and take the bowl.Uncle and Wan Xiaojiu waited for the food.

A fried river fish with chili, a bowl of chicken soup, a bowl of cucumber, a bowl of eggplant, a bowl of dried salted vegetables, and four bowls of white rice, Wan Xiaoliu thinks that these can catch up with the well-off level of the 21st century.Finally, Wan Xiaoliu brought a small bowl of small river fish without chili in front of Wan Mofei, and then sat down as if nothing had happened and greeted his uncle for dinner.

For one meal, the four of them ate in peace. Wan Xiaojiu had been eating small river fish. He said it was spicy, and he wanted to eat it. He ate it while drinking rice soup.Wan Mofei saw that Wan Xiaojiu was in pain, so he pushed what was in front of him towards Xiaojiu.

"Brother Murphy, I don't want yours. This one has no chili, it's not spicy, and it's not very satisfying. I just eat this one with chili. It's delicious and enjoyable." Wan Xiaojiu ate while shouting spicy.

"Do you want to eat chicken soup?" Wan Xiaoliu looked at Wan Xiaojiu in pain.

"No, I want to eat fish." Wan Xiaojiu shook her head.

"Leave him alone, don't worry about it." The uncle dotes on this little son very much.The aunt gave birth to 3 daughters before she had such a young son.How can you not get used to getting old when you are old.

"Sixth sister, I like spicy food, it's okay. I can't eat without spicy food. This fish is really spicy."

Wan Mofei kept his head down while eating, and seeing Wan Xiaojiu's appearance, he realized that eating is also such an interesting thing.

After dinner, Wan Xiaoliu washed the dishes, while the uncle sat and smoked yellow cigarettes, Wan Mofei was dragged outside by Wan Xiaojiu to watch the chicks.

"Xiao Liu, what does this little brother think of now?" The uncle lit a cigarette with the flint of the stove.

"No, he occasionally said he had a headache, and after the pain, there was nothing left." Wan Xiaoliu began to feel uneasy again.

"This little brother, judging by his appearance, is a very rich and powerful man. I'm afraid Wanjia Village won't be able to keep him."

"Uncle, I don't want to keep him. He can leave anytime he wants." Wan Xiaoliu's voice was so soft.

"I'm not driving him away. I'm still thinking about making Xiaojiu worship him as a teacher and learn how to read well. But you don't know that people in the village have been talking about him, saying that you want to keep him. Now Chunhua's parents are very fond of him." He wants to recruit him to be his door-to-door son-in-law, if you don't have any interest, just let them go." The uncle took a puff of cigarette and said for a while.

"Oh." Wan Xiaoliu's heart was really not in a good mood.

"Wanbao has always wanted to propose marriage, but was suppressed by his mother, and his mother is not bad, just thinking that our family is not good enough for theirs. Don't wrong yourself about this matter. There is nothing in our family that can't compare to others. We eat well. Full stomach, good health, everything is fine." The uncle finished his cigarette and started to work again.

"Well, I don't have any ideas. Uncle, I don't want to marry yet. I'm fine now." Wan Xiaoliu was awkward when it came to getting married.

"You child, you will marry sooner or later. You have reached the age, so there is nothing to be ashamed of. Your aunt has never met me before she married me. When we met for the first time, her face was flushed. Hehe, you Look, don't you have a good life now?" The honest middle-aged man would smile naively when he mentioned his wife.

"Yes, uncle, I will listen to you."

"Well, what about this little brother, just let him. If you are afraid, I will let Xiao Jiu come to keep you company at night." Listening to the uncle's accent, is it because he is worried that Wan Mofei is plotting something wrong?
"Thank you uncle, no need, I'll sleep inside at night, the door is closed tightly." Wan Xiaoliu waved his hand quickly.I don't want to sleep with a doll that wets the bed.

"Then I'll follow you. You're so old, and you've had your own ideas since you were a child. You can figure it out. This bamboo bed should be ready today, and this little brother will have a bed to sleep in at night." The uncle was weaving the bed. While saying: "Now you are two big laborers to eat, you need to have more food, put in some effort, so as not to starve, and go to your aunt if you need anything."

"Well, thank you uncle, I will." Wan Xiaoliu listened to his uncle while holding the sole of his shoe.

"You child, hey..." The uncle sighed and continued to make the bamboo bed.

"Uncle, I'm fine." Wan Xiaoliu said easily.

One afternoon, continue with the morning's work.Each do their own thing.In the middle, Wan Xiaoliu thought of the pheasants and hares in the well, so he put on a bamboo hat and went out to have a look. Fortunately, the lid was closed, and it was not affected at all. He pulled up the rope a little more. On rainy days, the water level of this well will rise Yes, raise it up and be more careful, thinking that I don’t know what to eat at night, so I took out another hare and prepared to burn it at night.After everything was done, put the lid on again. Don't worry, I moved another stone to press on it.Send the hare into the house, take a hoe, and connect the water in the front and back of the house. This terrible weather, the rain does not know when it will fall, so we must be fully prepared. Fortunately, the wall has been covered before. Surrounded by thatch, otherwise I am super worried now.This dilapidated house really needs to be remodeled.

Wan Xiaoliu cooked the dinner, and the uncle's bed was completed. He happily swept away the scattered bamboo shavings on the ground, put down the bed, and sat on it to try it out. The benefits of the bed.

"Uncle, let's eat first." On a rainy day, it got dark earlier, the lamps were lit, the food was served on the table, and the four of them ate happily.

"Father, the hare cooked by Sixth Sister is much more delicious than that cooked by Mother." Wan Xiaojiu said while chewing.

"You child, if your mother hears about it, you'll have to eat chestnuts again." The uncle looked at his Luo Mi'er dotingly.

"Mother isn't here, so don't tell her." Wan Xiaojiu pointed at everyone with her oily fingers.

"Understood, hurry up and eat, go home after eating, did you learn everything that Brother Fei taught you today?" the uncle was still asking.

"Well, remember some." Wan Xiaojiu nodded and said.
