A beautiful little life in a farmhouse

Chapter 20 Settling the Accounts: Garlic Shrimp and Steamed Crab

The next day, Mu Wanniang, who had been exhausted all day yesterday, woke up in the morning (from 9:11 to [-]:[-]), and she still had a lot to do today.

After making breakfast for Shitou and Sanwa, she was going to talk to Zhang Shunzi about Shitou falling into the water yesterday. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Zhang Yuangui standing outside and about to knock on the door.

"Hey, do you want to go?" Zhang Yuangui was carrying a basket of things in his hand, covered by cloth strips, Mu Wanniang could still smell a strong fishy smell.

Noticing her gaze, Zhang Yuangui scratched the back of his head and lifted the cloth.

"It's not that you wanted to eat this seafood before. I went to the county today and met and brought it to you. The man said that he was going to prepare for winter, so this winter will not come. I'm afraid you will miss it."

As he spoke, he was a little embarrassed and laughed twice.

Mu Wanniang knew his kindness, and also knew that he must have felt guilty because Zhang Shunzi went back yesterday and said that Sanwa was almost taken away by traffickers.

Without saying anything, she lifted the basket and put it into the house.

"Thank you, Uncle Zhang. If I hadn't helped me with what happened yesterday, I wouldn't be able to take care of the two children by myself. I even hurt him. It's my fault."

Zhang Yuangui was about to speak, but Mu Wanniang hurriedly said: "Uncle Zhang, ask Shunzi to come over to my side during lunch, I want to ask him about the stone falling into the water yesterday."

"Hey, I want it." Zhang Yuangui nodded hurriedly, and said to her before leaving: "Remember to come to me if you have any difficulties in the future. We are all from the same village, so we don't have any scruples."

Mu Wanniang smiled sincerely, "Then thank you, Uncle Zhang! I will have to trouble you in the future."

Zhang Yuangui waved his hand, "What's the trouble, let's go, you go in!"

Zhang Yuangui brought not only prawns, but also a few large crabs. At noon, she was going to make a plate of garlic prawns and steamed crabs.

Zhang Shunzi came over at mealtime, and Mu Wanniang asked him about falling into the water after taking him to eat together.

She also asked this morning how the stone fell into the river yesterday, but the three-year-old only knew that someone pushed it, and didn't know anything else.

"Sister Shitou, I saw it!" He was trying to dig loaches by the river when the stone fell into the water. "It was the stakes that pushed the stone down."

Mu Wanniang's eyes flickered, and she asked him, "Are you sure you saw the pile pushing the stone?"

Zhang Shunzi saw it clearly, "I saw it! It's him!"

The corner of Mu Wanniang's mouth twitched, and she asked Zhang Shunzi if he was recovering from the injury, and immediately gave him back the bowl of garlic shrimp and the money for the basket of seafood that he left behind in the basket.

"Tell your father." Zhang Yuangui raised Shunzi as his own son, "Let him take all these things, otherwise I won't ask him for help in the future."

Zhang Shunzi nodded vigorously, it's shrimp again, this shrimp is delicious!
As soon as he left, Mu Wanniang was about to find someone, and the lady next door came to see him.

"I originally wanted to come over to see Shitou and Sanwa earlier, but I didn't want my dead ghost to come back early today and keep me busy."

Mrs. Du's family is a small businessman, who has been running around in several counties, and only came back after a long time.

"Knowing about the separation of your family, you said that you would come over and take a look. I saw that he was trembling when he walked. Let him go back to the house and have a lazy sleep. Come to my house to eat in the evening. I have a good meal today. .”

"Okay." Mu Wanniang originally planned to let her take a look at the two children for herself first, "Aunt Du, ask Chunhua to look at Shitou and Sanwa for me, and I'll go to Mu's house over there."

Du Niangzi was stunned when she heard the words, "What's wrong? Why did you want to go there?"

They also knew about the stone falling into the water, but they all thought that the stone fell accidentally.

"Auntie, it was the pile from the second room of the Mu family that pushed the stone down. I have to go over and ask for an explanation!"

Du Niangzi was startled when she heard this, "What's going on? Is this intentional?"

"I don't know." Mu Wanniang sneered in her heart, it was not intentional, "Auntie, please help me take a look at these two children."

"Hey, don't worry, there's nothing wrong there anyway, if you have something to do in the past, send a baby over to tell us, our men are good at fighting."

After Mu Wanniang entrusted Shitou and Sanwa to Lady Du, she went to the Mu's house alone. The outer door was open, Mrs. Mu Li was sitting in the small yard cooking vegetables, and Mrs. Mu Ma was sitting in front of the house sewing clothes.

"What are you doing here?!" The first person who saw Mu Wanniang was Mu Shuangshuang, who was about to come out for a stroll, "Don't come here to ask for money again. After the family is separated, you still want to ask for money from my mother? Where are you?" face?"

Mu Wanniang ignored her and looked directly at Mrs. Mu Ma.

"Auntie, where's your stake?"

Mrs. Mu Ma glanced at her, and said angrily: "What are you doing with my stake?"

Mu Wanniang chuckled, "I'm going to kill him."

"What the hell are you talking about?!" Mrs. Mu Ma stood up abruptly, rushing forward to hit someone, "You little bastard, come and curse my family if you have nothing to do, how can you offend you as a child? You speak so viciously!" !"

Mu Wanniang dodged directly, and incidentally pulled Mu Shuangshuang's sleeve to keep her in front, and Mu Ma's hand slapped her on the head.

Mu Shuangshuang screamed, and the two began to fight, causing Mu Liu who was inside to rush out to help her daughter beat someone up.

Now most of the men in the family are in the field, so Mu Wanniang walked in directly and asked Mu Li, "Uncle, is the post at home?"

Mu Li buried her head and squinted at her, ignoring her.

Mu Wanniang didn't care, and went directly to Mu Yihong's room, kicked open the door, and saw Mu Yihong looking impatiently at the stake standing at his feet kicking him.

"Hey, where is the stake?" Mu Wanniang waved at him, "I heard that you pushed my stone into the river yesterday? Come on, I'll throw you into the river too."

Mu Yihong stood up and frowned at her: "How can you, a little girl, break into my house?"

"Jiangzi, if you don't come out, you want me to pull you out?" Mu Wanniang didn't have such a good intention to engage in these twists and turns with them, and she didn't know what to say to this scholar Mu Yihong.

She is ashamed to say that she is a scholar, and she is not blind to the erotic pictures on his desk that were too late to take back.

Only 12 years old, this kid is really precocious.

Zhuangzi ran behind Mu Yihong and hid, not afraid of her at all, "I'm not going out, you idiot!"

Mu Wanniang was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, she stepped forward and grabbed him by the back collar and lifted him out.

Outside, Mrs. Mu Ma, who was being grabbed by Mrs. Mu Liu's hair, wailed, rushed over and hugged the stake in his arms.

"Second aunt, your stake pushed my stone into the river yesterday and almost killed him. Let him kneel at the door of my house to apologize to the stone, and prepare two taels of money for medicine. I don't care about it. Now, if he doesn't come, I can let him taste the feeling of falling into the water."
