Chapter 18
I saw what my mother said to my second brother. The second brother scratched the ground twice with a hoe, and then saw that my mother started to work, he stood up and looked around again.
"Brother, look, the second brother is lazing over there again." When I turned around, the elder brother didn't hear me at all, but just looked to the east. Walking back with a hoe.
Only then did the eldest brother speed up and catch up with me.
I laughed and said, "If you go to dig a well, why don't you take Lin Cailian with you?"
The eldest brother was stunned: "This is not possible!"
"There's nothing wrong with it! Sowing seeds on the ground can delay it for a few days, just in time for her to follow you."
The eldest brother thought for a while, then nodded: "That's fine. It just so happened that Lao Li said last time that he was looking for a couple. The woman can wash clothes and cook. It will be more convenient then. I will discuss it with her later."
My eldest brother and I went home first, and he was in charge of lighting the fire, so I made some pancakes casually.
Chop the loofah, kohlrabi and zucchini, add salt and sand, mix with some cornmeal and add some white flour, and cook in the stove. My eldest brother and I ate vegetables and rice. One set aside.
Then let him help me go to the woods to pick fruit smoothly.
When I came out, I saw that the door of my second sister-in-law's house was unlocked, and I wanted to greet her to get up and eat while it was hot.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw melon seed husks all over the place. There was also a lot of dust on the table and windows. There was a pile of unwashed dishes beside the stove outside, and unwashed clothes were soaking in the laundry tub.Liu Ye was lying on the kang with her clothes on, sound asleep, and there was a pile of unfinished melon seeds beside her.
I immediately frowned, my second sister-in-law and second brother are really a match made in heaven, they are also surprisingly lazy.But she is pregnant now, which is also a good excuse. I didn't wake her up, and walked out quietly.
My eldest brother and I went to the woods. There were still a lot of mushrooms when we came last time, but these days, the other villagers picked almost all of them. After searching for a long time, we only filled a small bag.
"Don't be disappointed, I'll help you hit the fruit."
My elder brother helped me make a big bag of fruit, and then he took a side road to the town. The road here goes directly through the back mountain, and the road into the city can be much shorter.
"It's a bit out of the way here. If you're alone, don't go. It's not good if there are snakes."
I promised to walk for a while, because I suddenly wanted to go to the bathroom, so I asked my elder brother to wait for me, and walked over to the wild grass on the front slope. They are wildflowers, but they are quite beautiful.
When I came out, I suddenly felt that there was something vaguely moving on the hillside in front of me, and it was still shaking. In addition, I seemed to be able to hear strange sounds.
My heart began to beat chug, this is not a good movement, could there be some animal?I didn't dare to call Big Brother, for fear of alarming the animal, it would be bad if it bit me.I took a few steps forward and finally saw what was in front of me clearly.
I almost cried out and covered my mouth!
A man and a woman together!The man couldn't see his face clearly, his skin was dark and bright, and he was a little thin, while the woman in his arms had disheveled hair, and he could only see Bai Shengsheng's back, and he didn't know who it was, and was constantly moaning.
I was so frightened that I took several steps back, my face turned red and turned white, my mother, I didn't expect this to happen to me!Let's go now.
Who knew that when he was in a hurry, he didn't stand firmly on his feet, and fell directly to the ground.
Boom!The voice was not loud, but it startled both of them. The woman screamed: "Ah! Someone!"
There was a crackling sound behind him, and the man asked loudly, "Who is it, come out for me!"
I'm so nervous right now, the voice seems to be Sun Hong and Gao Hu!These two people are really too daring to do such a thing here in broad daylight!
"What's the matter, Qiaoer?" The eldest brother heard that my voice was wrong, and hurried over, he was getting closer and closer.
I hurriedly shouted: "It's okay! Brother, don't leave. I'll pass right away!"
Sun Hong was in a panic at this moment, she pushed Gao Hu aside, stood up and put on her clothes in a panic, her fingers were chattering constantly, and the buttons were buttoned wrongly.
I know what she's worried about. If word of this gets out in the village, she won't have to live anymore!
And that heartless Gao Hu has already run quickly along the grass over there.Sun Hong called his name several times in a low voice, but he acted as if he hadn't heard it. Sun Hong was so angry that she started to cry.
"Why are you so heartless, will you let me take care of myself if something goes wrong?"
"I'm leaving." I whispered.
She came out and grabbed my arm, her voice trembling: "Wang Qiaozhen, listen to me..."
I pressed her shoulders and helped her straighten her messy hair: "I really didn't see anything!"
Sun Hong cried: "Don't coax me, it's already like this, you still say that?"
I had no choice but to say: "Don't worry, this matter will rot in my stomach. If I say something nonsense, I'm sure there will be boils on my tongue, rotten from head to toe!"
"But your mother and my mother don't get along, if you tell your mother..."
I hurriedly said: "This matter has nothing to do with them at all, no second person will know, you believe me."
Sun Hong felt a little more at ease, she took out a handful of small change from her pocket and wanted to stuff it into my hand.
"You take the money! As long as you don't tell it..."
I hurriedly said, "Don't take it to heart. I won't talk about it, and I don't want your money. I'll go first."
"But you..."
"It won't be good if my elder brother hears it. I really have to go!" I was worried that my elder brother heard it, so I turned around and walked forward quickly.
"Qiaoer..." She called my name, I turned around and saw her looking at me gratefully, still standing there with tears in her eyes.
"Shh, don't let my elder brother listen to you!" I pointed in the direction of my elder brother, and ran forward quickly.
The elder brother saw that my eyes were wrong, and hurriedly asked me what was wrong: "Your face is too ugly, isn't it? Did you bully you?"
He said he wanted to go inside, but I stopped him.
"Nothing!" I forced a smile and said, "I thought I saw a snake just now, but I saw it wrong. It really scared me to death!"
The eldest brother didn't ask any more questions, and quickly pushed the car onto the road. He threw the bag on the bicycle, let me sit on it, and rode towards the direction of the town quickly.
I was panting for a long time because I was so nervous.
Many years ago, there was a young man and woman in the village who did the same thing in the woods, but they were bumped into by someone and soon spread to the village.The woman threw herself into the river at night, and the man was beaten up by his parents, and went to other places to be a blind girl. I heard that he has not found a partner so far, so it is normal for Sun Hong to worry about spreading the news.
Naturally, I wouldn't tell the second person, but I just thought of Gao Hu, this person is too heartless!He ran away immediately after something happened. If others really found out, he would not care about Sun Hong's life or death at all.
But even if he is not a good person, Sun Hong is still determined to be with him, what a natural fate!
I know in my heart what she will face, but I'm afraid that even if I tell her seriously, she won't believe it.It was really helpless to watch her fall into the fire pit!
"Qiaoer! Are you listening to me?" The eldest brother talked to me.
I was taken aback, and hurriedly smiled and said, "I was a little distracted just now, what's wrong?"
"I just said that I'm going to dig a well soon. When I'm away, don't always quarrel with your second brother and mother. You can't beat them. If you have any grievances, you can bear it and wait until I come back. "
"Well, I know, brother, don't worry." In fact, I have already made up my mind, I want to go with my brother.But this matter can't let the big brother know.
He kept taking me to the place where vegetables were sold in the town, and I kept urging him to leave.
But the elder brother said: "I'm worried that that woman and her cousin are looking for trouble for you."
"Don't worry! I believe Yuan Fang won't make trouble with me again."
"Why are you so sure? You don't know her well."
I laughed and said, "I don't know him, but I know who Du Cheng's mother, Sun'e, is. She is so face-saving, it's impossible for her daughter-in-law to be with a bastard every day, and because she beat me, I just found a reason not to work for their family. Can she not talk about Yuan Fang? Yuan Fang worries every day that she won't marry Du Cheng, and she will be honest. That's why I know that she won't provoke me until she gets married. "
The eldest brother smiled, probably thinking about when this girl like me will be in a suit.
"Then I'm leaving, be careful."
"rest assured."
After the eldest brother left, I sat there and put the noodles, salted duck eggs, fruits, and mushrooms on the fertilizer bag. I didn’t want my mother to know, so I didn’t use a scale. The noodles cost [-] cents a piece. Zhang, two salted duck eggs cost [-] cents.Fruits cost a dime a handful, and they will be almost sold out in a short time.
Because there are too few mushrooms on the market, I sell them for fifty cents apiece.In this way, the supply was still in short supply, and an aunt directly gave me three wallets to round it up.She also kept telling me that she would buy as much as she had, even if she wanted to sell it.
"This mushroom can be eaten all winter if it is dried. It is delicious and nutritious, and it is not afraid of spoilage. It's a pity that there are too few of them, and I can't buy them even if I want to."
I agreed, but I was also worried. The market is so good, but it is useless without mushrooms.
Soon there will be a little fruit left, and I see that it's getting late, so I'm going to close the stall, and let my family eat the rest.Today I made more than five yuan again, and my private money has increased a lot, so I am very happy.
Just as I was about to pack my things, I suddenly heard someone say in my ear: "How do you sell this fruit?"
The voice is gentle and clear, it is Gao Tiansheng's voice that I always remember!
