Chapter 39

The busy farming season is about to begin, and the plan for the literacy class can only be temporarily put on hold, but the enthusiasm of Su Changhe's family in the east of the village to organize the engagement banquet has been high, and they have not been despised in the slightest because of the upcoming busy farming season.

"Have you heard? Su Changhe and Wang Chunmei have asked people to exchange cloth tickets, meat tickets and industrial tickets everywhere. It seems that Su Zijie and Xu Jiaojiao's marriage is a certainty."

"Isn't this the lice on the monk's head?"

"That old lady Wang Chunmei is also amazing, she can jump with a limp leg."

"Bouncing around?! Didn't you see that old woman with her crutches on her crutches, with such a smug look on her face! Oh! I don't mind talking about her, poor third girl of Shen's family, not to mention her poor health, she will have to bear the reputation of a second-hand goods in the future ..."

"In the future, the three girls of the Shen family will probably only be able to find a widower who died or a poor old bachelor."

"Wang Chunmei and Su Changhe are on the stall, it can only be regarded as the third girl of the Shen family who is unlucky."

Listening to everyone's discussion, Wang Meili, who was squatting in the field pulling weeds, stopped her hands, picked up a lump of soil and threw it in front of Tian Xiaorou who was a few steps away. He raised his eyes displeased.

Seeing Tian Xiaorou looking over, Wang Meili hooked her fingers, signaling Tian Xiaorou to move closer.

Tian Xiaorou lowered her eyes to hide the boredom in her eyes, and moved over slowly.

"Do you know who the third girl of the Shen family they are talking about?" Wang Meili whispered.

"I don't know!" Tian Xiaorou shook her head.

Compared with the other production teams in Panshi Village, the tenth production team is not big, but there are hundreds of people, old and young.

After coming here for a few days, I went to work at dawn and left at night, and spent the whole day in the fields, how could I find the time to find out who the third girl of the Shen family who was at the center of the gossip was.

I don't know when such a day will end.

"Do you remember the girl who rode the bullock cart with us that day?" Wang Meili gave Tian Xiaorou a meaningful look.

"You mean, that girl is... the third girl of the Shen family?" Tian Xiaorou's eyes widened in shock.

After listening to Wang Chunmei, Su Changhe, the three girls from the old Su family and the Shen family for a few days...

Wang Meili carefully looked around and lowered her voice, "Let me tell you another exclusive news, the village next door..."

"Auntie, let me ask you, how can I get to Shen Zhihuan's house?" At this moment, a soft female voice sounded from the side of the road.

Wang Meili's eyes sparkled instantly and she stopped.

"Why..." Tian Xiaorou frowned.

She didn't say anything to arouse people's interest.

"Hush!" Wang Meili put her hand to her lips and made a silent gesture, then glanced at the side of the road, signaling Tian Xiaorou to pay attention.

"Are you looking for the third girl of the Shen family?" Widow Chen put down her hoe, looked up and down at the delicate-looking little girl who was still holding a piece of good pork belly.

"En!" The delicate girl nodded.

Hearing that someone was asking about Shen Zhihuan, the people working nearby all slowed down their movements and listened with sharp ears.

Some people even put down the hoes and sickles in their hands, and looked at the excitement openly.

The next moment, the pork belly in the hand of the delicate girl snatched all the attention of those watching the excitement.

After a while, those who listened to the news with sharp ears noticed the abnormality of the people watching, and subconsciously followed the eyes of the people watching.

For a moment, the sound of swallowing saliva came and went.

These days, for those people in the village who face the loess and their backs to the sky, wanting to eat meat to their heart's content is like going to heaven.

Let’s not talk about money, just talk about votes, so many tickets are issued in a year, not to mention people with a large population, but those with a small population. No matter what, a family must have six or seven members!Coupled with the lack of oil and water in the stomachs of people these days, how much meat can the whole family eat?
Can't you just eat the one-year meat ticket in one meal?

Besides, this meal is a joy, what about next month?What about the next year?

"Are you her classmate?" Widow Chen glanced at the pork belly in the delicate girl's hand, and secretly swallowed.

"No!" The delicate girl shook her head.

"Then you are her relative?" Widow Chen tentatively asked.

"Auntie, can you tell me where she lives? After delivering the things, I have to rush back to cook." The delicate girl frowned slightly, but when she thought of her brother's advice, she suppressed her dissatisfaction.

"The one who built the country, here are your relatives." Unaccustomed to Widow Chen's inquisitiveness, a middle-aged woman next to her called out to Li Qiuhua, who was a few fields away.

Li Qiuhua, who was busy weeding, was slightly taken aback when he heard someone calling her.

relative……

Does her family have any relatives now?
Li Qiuhua smiled self-deprecatingly, put down his hoe, and strode towards the side of the road.

"Auntie, are you sister Zhihuan's mother?" Before Li Qiuhua approached, the delicate girl greeted her with a smile.

"You are?" Li Qiuhua was confused.

"My name is Zhu Xiaoxiu, and my brother's name is Zhu Dazhuang. We live in the same village as Sister Zhilan. My brother asked me to bring some eggs, meat and rice to Sister Zhihuan." A large piece of pork belly, and turned back to point to the cloth bag and basket she put on the side of the road.

eggs, rice...

The onlookers followed the direction of Zhu Xiaoxiu's fingers, only to find the calico bags and baskets on the side of the road, look at the size of the calico bags, the rice in it must be at least twenty or thirty catties, and the eggs, which are full A basket full.

"You and Zhilan are in the same village..." Li Qiuhua suddenly remembered what the second daughter said yesterday, and his face instantly became ugly.

"Take all these things away! Our family is not short of food and drink, and we don't need help from others." Li Qiuhua turned around as he spoke.

"Auntie, don't get me wrong, my brother and I didn't mean that. My brother knew that sister Zhihuan was not in good health, so he asked me to take it to make up for sister Zhihuan." Zhu Xiaoxiu said quickly.

"We appreciate your kindness, you'd better take it back!" Li Qiuhua, who realized that he was overreacting, forced a smile.

"Auntie, just accept it! If you don't accept it, my brother and my mother will blame me for not being able to do things." Zhu Xiaoxiu pretended to be pitiful.

Li Qiuhua sighed, "I won't accept things, girl, to tell you the truth, my family, Zhihuan, is weak, and can't afford to work, can't earn work points, and can't serve her in-laws. I don't feel at ease wherever she will marry, so I plan to give her away. She stays at home, and if I can meet a good one in the future, I will find her a husband, if not, I will raise her for the rest of my life."

"Sister Zhihuan is weak. My mother and my brother both know about it. My mother and I are responsible for family affairs, and my brother and my three nephews and aunts are responsible for making money. Don't worry! My mother is not The kind of person who can't tolerate a daughter-in-law will never let sister Zhihuan be wronged." Zhu Xiaoxiu said bitterly.

Before coming here, her mother still had a distressed face, thinking that her brother gave too much...

"Go back quickly! I still have something to do in my field!" Li Qiuhua left without looking back.
