Wu Chao: Take the whole family to escape the famine

Chapter 187
After taking a shower and returning to the cave, the Ji Xun brothers hadn't returned yet, Shen Yuan poured a basin of well water into the space, and poured another round of water on the Chinese cabbage, anyway, it doesn't cost money, it doesn't matter if it grows or not.

Shen Yuan woke up early the next morning, still hearing the sound of kung fu practice outside the cave.

When I was washing my face, I found that the water tank was full, and Ji Xun's leg was injured, and I don't know how painful it was to bear such a heavy burden, Shen Yuan decided to get up early tomorrow, and she will carry water.

I ate ramen for breakfast, cooked with the leftover broth from the night before, not to mention how delicious it was.

The little guy Ji Feng flattered him a lot, and he insisted on helping his sister-in-law wash the dishes, saying that she had worked hard.

The little friends who had just made their little hands greasy came to the door, and hooked Ji Feng out by poking around at the entrance of the cave. The half-old children ran away into the village like a herd of bison.

The little guy is actually very obedient, his brother told him not to go to the lake, he never went, even if he knew how to swim, he also taught other disobedient kids, "A gentleman should not stand under a wall."

Ji Xun must have read a lot of books, and the characters he wrote with charcoal blocks in the cave are quite comparable to Wang Xizhi's.

Today it was agreed to go to the patriarch surnamed Shen and ask Mrs. Wang and two uncles about his father's house and land, so Ji Xun didn't go into the mountain.

"I'll leave after I pack these things up, just wait."

Shen Yu'an said to Ji Xun, put a pot on the stove to boil water, and was going to soak the pig's large intestine in the water. She must order the charcoal-grilled large intestine for modern skewers. Sprinkle some cumin and chili powder, it is delicious.

Ji Xun didn't speak, he sat at the entrance of the cave and looked out, but he couldn't help sneaking a peek at Shen Yuan from the corner of his eyes, she pretended to be working hard, right?After all, this kind of rough work has never been done before.

But it's also a good thing, pretending it might make you really diligent, straightening this crooked seedling is worthy of Shen Hong's entrustment.

The large intestine was blanched, fixed with thin bamboo sticks, and finally tied with a rope and hung at a suitable place above the stove. Grandma said that the smell of fire would give off a smoke aroma, and it tasted unique.

She sliced ​​the pork belly and marinated it, and made pork belly soup at night.

Shen Yuan concentrates on her work. In modern times, she devotes herself most seriously to two things. One is seeing a doctor, and the other is cooking food. Does this count as a balance between work and life?

After cleaning her hands, she tidied up her slightly messy hair, fastened the silk belt around her waist, and neatly tied a bow on her side waist.

"Let's go." She greeted Ji Xun in a relaxed tone, and walked out of the cave, and Ji Xun picked up his walking stick and followed.

The autumn air was crisp and the sky was clear and clear. The two went to the village one after the other. When they passed the mouth of the well, the gossipers talked again.

"Yo? Ji Zizi is willing to go out with Shen fool? This is so strange."

"Didn't Fool Shen proclaim everywhere before that he is still a big girl with yellow flowers? I must have shared the same bed these two days."

"No wonder Mrs. Wang came here in a hurry yesterday and left in a huff. She must have been a fool and couldn't sell for a good price."

"Where can't I sell it at a good price? Mrs. Wang has already contacted the next family, not to mention that she might be happier if she is pregnant and pregnant. The other party is an incompetent fool."

Aunt Zhou was also by the well, and she couldn't listen anymore. "The folks in the village all have the same surname. If they don't love each other, they just gloat over others' misfortune. Who doesn't have a daughter yet? Are you so hard-hearted and afraid of retribution?" Everyone disagreed. out loud.

"Yuan, where are you going?" Aunt Zhou straightened up and greeted Shen Yuan with a kind face.

"I'm going to the patriarch's house, ma'am." Shen Yuan agreed with a smile.

As soon as Aunt Zhou put down the clothes in her hand, she climbed a dozen steps in one breath and walked to Shen Yuan. She thought that Shen Yuan was going to the patriarch's house to sign a reconciliation, and she looked anxious.

"Yuan, don't be stupid, Ji Xun is such a good person? You won't suffer from living with him. It's okay to be poor now, and you will be better in the future." After finishing speaking, he looked at Ji Xun again, " Ah Xun, Madam knows you are a good person and an honest person, Yu Yu is young and ignorant, if you do something wrong, you should bear with it, if there is no food in winter, Madam will give you some, so as not to freeze to death and starve to death, rest assured."

These words really surprised Ji Xun, it turned out that there are such good people in the world.

Just as he was about to explain, Shen Yuan rushed to speak, speaking in an unstructured and still silly way, and loudly.

"Auntie, am I stupid? I just want my grandma to give me fifty taels of silver to fix Ji Xun's legs and face, so that he can go to school to test his achievements. As long as he is better-looking than Wang Xiucai and more promising than Wang Xiucai, then I will not make peace."

Everyone froze for a moment when the words came out, and then couldn't help laughing out loud.

"This idiot, he still said he wasn't stupid, puff~~"

"It turns out that she changed to another daydream, which is good. Wang Xiucai finally got rid of it."

"Then Mrs. Wang, don't want to be entangled? Fifty taels of silver, it will kill her."

"I still want to persuade her to sell with Li again, but now she won't leave. Mrs. Wang won't lose money if she steals chickens. It's a good show."

Aunt Zhou laughed when she heard this. This child is stubborn and never tires of what he decides. Mrs. Wang is greedy and wicked. She took the [-] taels of pension from her stepson Shen Hong and refused to give Shen Yuan a cent, telling her to vomit. Fifty taels is not too much.

However, even if it took Mrs. Wang's life for such a large sum of money, she would not take it out, but it would be good to pester her, so as to save her from playing tricks.

"Then why go to the patriarch's house?" Aunt Zhou was a little puzzled.

"Oh, my grandma said that I ran out of money, so I asked her to ask her for my father's house and land. My grandma lied, she said she sold it, but I saw my uncle in that field two days ago work."

Aunt Zhou was overjoyed when she heard that, she quickly patted Shen Yuan on the shoulder, and gave her an encouraging look: "Then Auntie won't delay you, there are still clothes to be washed." Don't dare to say too much, Mr. Wang Taihe and her two daughters-in-law are shrews, and they don't want to quarrel with them.

After hearing this, the girls from various households by the mouth of the well began to discuss again.

"Don't you guys think that fool Shen has changed? It seems that he is not as stupid as before."

"I also think that you know how to ask the patriarch to ask for your own property, how smart?"

"You think too much, how can a fool become smart? Didn't you see Ji Zizi there? It wasn't his idea, I'll chop off his head."

"Yes, yes, forget about him. He has killed people on the battlefield and seen blood. He must not be a good stubble. Now that life is difficult, he has the idea of ​​these things."

"What do you mean by having the idea of ​​these things? Those things belonged to Shen Hong in the first place, so what's wrong with his daughter taking them back?" Aunt Zhou couldn't bear to listen anymore, and couldn't help but say something fair, "If my granddaughter lives Eating wild vegetables in the cave, life has become like that, I have taken the initiative to take it out."
