take a wife to support the family

Chapter 79

Indulging the daughter-in-law to snatch things from her daughter-in-law, the daughter-in-law gave her back. Stealing chickens is not worth the money, so Niu had to pretend not to know, and never mentioned that he wanted to vent his anger on Song Xiuxiu. something?"

Song Xiuxiu stared wide-eyed, didn't you tell me to go, mother?
At any rate, she still had two brains, so she didn't dare to say this, she hid in the room without saying a word, and recalled the shocked look in Xiao Xiucai's eyes when she saw her.

Song Xiuxiu was very happy in her heart, she felt that Xiao Xiucai must be very impressed with her, she didn't even care if her mother scolded her outside.

Song Ermei sent the beans to Lily and went back to help Lily. The picked beans were put in a basket and put into the cellar. The cowpeas were neatly coded according to their length and thickness, tied with hemp rope and put aside.

The cellar is cool and humid, and these fresh vegetables will not rot even after a month.

In the evening, Lily left Song Ermei to eat at home. The new lentils were pinched off by the sharp ends, and the old tendons were torn off along the grain, cut into thin shreds, and fried with lard residue, which was extremely fragrant and tender.

Then cook a pork ribs and bean soup, add more pepper powder, it will make people feel comfortable in their mouths.The courgette was a little old, and it was not as delicious as when it was the most tender, but it also tasted sour.

Song Ermei said: "It's strange that Lamei is coming back for breakfast, your cooking is so delicious!"

Lamei whispered, "Your family's blood steamed buns are also delicious."

In this matter, Song Haonian has the most right to speak, he has eaten meals from both of them: "They are all delicious!"

At night, he whispered to Lily: "I said that politely. I think my wife's cooking is the best."

Lamei still went to sleep with Song Ermei at her house, and the next day Lily set up a small stall in the market, selling fresh lentils and cowpeas, and Lamei showed her the stall as a helper.

Lily didn't forget to send some to Mr. Liu's house, Mrs. Sheng said: "We also have some in Zhuangzi, and they have been delivered in the past few days."

"What belongs to the village belongs to the village. These are my thoughts." What Lily cares about is not the value of these beans, but the friendship they represent.

A few days later, Mrs. Sheng raised her lips when talking to Mr. Liu, and Mr. Liu praised: "He is very polite and sensible."

People, don't be afraid of being unhappy for a while, just be afraid that your mind will go astray. This year, everyone knows how to be grateful and do their duty, and life will not be bad in the future.The daughter-in-law is like this, and the husband should also be a sensible person.

It doesn't matter if you make mistakes when you are young, who hasn't been frivolous for a few years?The most important thing is to know the mistakes and correct them. Mr. Liu is very good at seeing Song Haonian now, but the family will not need him for a while, it's just a thought.

Lily left wintersweet to help, and if she stayed, she would save it until the Yulan Festival.

The Obon Festival on July [-] is a Buddhist saying that Mulian saves his mother and saves the evil spirits from hell.Taoism says that this day is the Ghost Festival, and the gates of ghosts are wide open.There are not many scholars in the countryside, and they all yell at each other, and they can say whatever they think sounds good.

The most important thing is to donate river lanterns on this day, and cross the bridge of Naihe, which can be regarded as accumulating blessings for the living.Since ancient times, the Chinese have had the ability to turn any festival into a festival of joy and reunion.

On July [-]th, the sun was very bright, and at noon, the fire clouds occupied half of the sky, changing the images of various animals, flowers and plants. Not only children stared at it, but even many adults watched it.

After dinner, the golden rim that the sun put on the clouds has not faded away, and after a while, the sky turns dark purple, gray, and dark blue, and it is dark.

The moon rises from the eastern sky, so bright and big that you don't need a lantern when you walk on the road.The moon and stars are rarer, but the lights in the Baishui River are denser than the stars in the sky.

The lanterns made during the day were lit one by one and floated into the river, so that they could float across the Naihe Bridge with their dead souls in order to seek the afterlife.

Throughout the year, there are not many days when you can still be active at night. Many young people take the opportunity to meet secretly and say a few intimate words, and there are also some impatient and bold ones who kiss and touch their bodies behind the haystacks.

Song Haonian was afraid that Lily would be scattered, so he held her tightly and did not let go. The two of them watched side by side for a while after setting up the lights by the river, Lily smiled and said, "It's so beautiful."

After looking at it for a while, he went home, met several pairs of wild mandarin ducks on the road, Song Haonian covered Lily's mouth to keep her from making a sound, and the two went home quietly, then he said: "It's shocking at this time, people will hate you .”

Lily glared at him: "Why are you so experienced? Tell me, have you done this before?"

Song Haonian was in a panic all of a sudden, he hurriedly explained that in the past few years, no one liked him, and he was honest, how could he do such a thing?
Lily burst into laughter: "Are you still honest?" Her eyes were watery, "I think you are the most dishonest!"

"I'm only being dishonest to you." Song Haonianfu felt his heart, picked up the lily and walked into the house.

I don't know if it was stimulated by the wild mandarin ducks, but the two of them were extremely enthusiastic. After tossing for half the night, they couldn't even look at the moon, so they hid behind the clouds in shame.

Lamei knew that she couldn't get in the way of her elder sister's husband's affairs, so she just followed Second Sister Song when she lit the lantern.

Second Sister Song is a widow. She has only been with that dead husband for a month, and she hasn't cultivated much affection, but she is more or less a living person, and she has been kind to her, and it is always sad to think about it.

During the day, Song Ermei made many river lanterns, and asked someone to write the name of the dead ghost's ex-husband, hoping to save him.

Unlike Song Haonian and Li Baihe who have no burden, Song Ermei stared blankly at the river lantern for a while, then sighed deeply, and then called Lamei to go home.

Usually the two get along easily, and only on this day did Lamei realize that Song Ermei is a widow.Her heart was trembling, she was always afraid that her dead husband would come back to find her.

Suddenly a figure flashed in front of her, Lamei's hair stood on end, she held onto Song Ermei's arm tightly, her upper and lower teeth chattering: "There is a shadow in front, in front!"

She was so scared that even Song Ermei made her uneasy, and whispered: "Don't be afraid, it's okay."

Having said that, people are already walking fast, and they can't wait to put on their wings and fly back home.

Not long after she walked out, Lamei heard another strange cry. She was so frightened that she wanted to jump up, and whispered, "Sister, what should I do!"

Isn't this a female ghost?Lamei tried hard to think about whether to spit or pee when encountering a ghost, or should she curse back loudly?It is said that ghosts are afraid of evil people, who is worse, me or Second Sister Song...

Just as she was thinking wildly, Second Sister Song suddenly pulled Lamei and said in a low voice, "It almost scared me to death, that's a person." After she finished speaking, she snickered.

"How do you know?" That strange cry kept coming, and Lamei muttered inwardly, how can a normal person cry like this?

Song Ermei deliberately explained that Pian Lamei was still a big girl with a yellow flower who had never been married, and she had some things to say to her directly, and it took a long time to whisper: "It's not crying, but someone is there with her man."

In fact, this is still not true. Who is serious in the wild?It must be a pair of wild mandarin ducks.

Lamei's face was burning hot, she understood what Song Ermei meant, it was obvious that someone else was doing such a thing, but she was ashamed as if she had nowhere to hide...

The two hurried home as if there were ghosts chasing after them. They fell asleep in a hurry, and Lamei tossed and turned what happened tonight in her mind. Does that shadow look like a little scholar?"

Xiao Xiucai is not married, so who should the woman be with him?
Song Ermei's face changed, and she quickly covered Lamei's mouth: "You shouldn't say this, just pretend you don't know, haven't seen it, and it's rotten in your heart!"

The little scholar Li Rulong had a feud with Baihe, everyone knew about it, and if he heard about the little scholar stealing someone in the middle of the night from Lily's sister, he might not know what kind of rumors would come from others.

Lamei knew how powerful she was, so she didn't dare to mention this again, so she had to keep the matter in her heart.

It's just that when I saw the little scholar in the future, I felt that everyone was like a dog and he was not a good person, so I avoided him more and more.

Lamei didn't dare to tell others, she only told Lily her guess, and Lily said: "Never mind him, it's none of our business. That little scholar is not a good person, if he touches it, his skin will peel off, you stay away." He was right."

Lily was busy drying beans. Fresh beans could be stored for a month at most. She remembered that dried beans were also delicious, so she put two bamboo plaques under the sun and turned them every two or three hours.

After five or six days in the sun, the beans shrank and dehydrated, their skins turned white, and they were dry and brittle when touched by hands. That means they were finished in the sun. Then they were put into bags and put into grain storage warehouses. They will be fine for a year.

Lamei helped Lily turn over the beans, and said, "Sister, if there's nothing wrong, I'll go home."

What happened last night somewhat frightened her, the little girl hadn't experienced anything, she was afraid that Xiao Xiucai would recognize her and seek her bad luck, so she wanted to go home and hide.

Lily thought, the girl has been here for a few days, she should go home and have a look, so she said with a smile: "Got it, I'm going to grind noodles tomorrow, and you can go back the day after tomorrow and bring home some new noodles."

Lamei hurriedly said: "There is land at home, father said, I don't want yours."

The Li family also grows wheat themselves, but Lily does not grow grain, and the grain is bought with real money. Li Mi loves the eldest daughter very much, and Tete told San Niu not to take her sister's grain.

"I told you to take it with you. I don't know the wheat at home? The noodles are dark and have no chewiness. The noodles are boiled and smashed. I bought good wheat, and the next one is the best. You bring it back to our father. Mother, try it. Don't worry, I can still starve myself?"

Lily has a big idea, and Lamei can't talk to her at all. After being explained by her sister, she agreed in a daze.

Looking back, Lamei recalled Carpenter Li's instructions: "Sister, Dad told you to save some seeds and plant the land next year."

Lily just smiled and didn't speak.

She plans to open up some more land next to her home, but instead of growing food, she grows melons and vegetables. This thing has a good harvest and is not worried about sales. Even if she is alone, she can take care of it, which is most suitable for her.
