"Ms. Qin, are you going to the new house?" An old woman with one ear waved from a distance carrying a basket of wild vegetables.

Ever since One Ear's old lady came to the old house to ask for the bill last time, she offered to lend two taels of silver to the Xu family, regardless of whether the Xu family will be useful or not in the end, if they dare to borrow, the Xu family will accept it.

So far, the embarrassment of the one-eared old lady and the old lady Xu who have fought for three hundred rounds in the earth is considered to be a story.

When Yu Qinniang and Xu Laoer saw an old lady with one ear, they treated it as ordinary elders in the village who would say hello, and the two families would be embarrassed to meet each other, roll their eyes and spit behind their backs:

"Yes, auntie, did you get up early to dig wild vegetables?"

"There aren't any wild vegetables left at this time, just some wild celery and mountain carrot artemisia by the river. Didn't your mother-in-law mention it to a few of us old sisters before she left, saying that they had nothing to do to look for wild vegetables, so we shouldn't get together. The host and the host always fell out after a short chat. Hahaha, I thought it was right to listen to her. I was used to collecting firewood and digging for vegetables. Come on, come on, I’ll grab a handful for you. My family has saved a lot. , you take it back and eat it.”

Yu Qinniang had to stand still.

In fact, she doesn't like to meet people she knows and chatter, which will delay her work.She went through one thing after another every day, as if she was so busy.

But I also know that the people in the village are so enthusiastic, it's all because of her mother-in-law's face, otherwise, who cares about her?Hurry up and tear it up.

Her family also saved a lot, and when she saw it, she dug it up and took it home to store it.

The mother-in-law said that when the mutual market opened, the restaurant would sell wild vegetable porridge mixed with side dishes, or simply sell wild wild vegetables directly.

Although Yu Qinniang doesn't quite understand that those businessmen are fools?Will you spend money to buy wild vegetables?But the mother-in-law is always right, she just doesn't have the brain to be obedient.What if the place where the merchants are located doesn't grow Northland vegetables, isn't this also called a feature?Maybe I will buy it back in winter and try something new.

"I really don't want it, aunt."

The old woman with one ear just gave up: "Is your yard not flooded? I really haven't had time to go and have a look."

Speaking of this, Yu Qinniang has something to say, she should stop to take a breath:
"To tell you the truth from my aunt, the last time the village across the street was flooded, my mother-in-law, as if she had a back eye, ordered the door to be paved with steps.

It just so happened that my man and two younger uncles all came back from the outside, thinking that it would be no trouble if it was just a little effort, our family picked stones from the mountain and filled them with soil to build steps.The doors were dismantled and reinstalled for this reason.

You forgot, aunt, you were asking me what I was doing.Unexpectedly, this time it was really easy to worry about. The water did not cover the steps at all. "

Yu Qinniang couldn't help laughing and continued: "Then Tian Xin is really smart, and dug out strange-shaped dark ditches in the corners of the courtyard. out the gutter and under the backyard wall."

The one-eared old woman thought to herself: It's not a bad thing to co-author, you say this is not annoying.

Unlike her house, half of the yard was flooded, the corn was soaked by her, and half of the roof was torn off.

On the day when the wind was blowing, in the middle of the night, the long hair of her old man was blown up. For some reason, she thought she had met a ghost in the middle of the night, and she was too grandma when she saw him.

Alas, if you don't talk about it, this will make the old Xu's family gain momentum completely. Even the rain and wind will not bully the Xu family, and they will not enter the door.Sometimes it's just a matter of luck.

However, she also admitted: "That girl Tian Xin is really smart. I heard from his fourth grandfather a few days ago that the river water entering our village this time did not flood the kang on the east side of the river. The family suffered, that’s why Tian Xin took the lead in digging the trench last time. You said how her little head grew, tsk tsk, you don’t know, everyone praises behind her back.”

Yu Qinniang is very sorry, don’t praise behind your back:

"Either follow my mother-in-law or follow my elder brother and sister-in-law. Anyway, her uncle and I have no brains. I, Tian Xin, know everything even though I am a girl. It's like some people use their brains to live, while others rely on strength , I, Tian Xin'er, will be appointed to rely on brains for food in the future."

"That's right, you can earn money while sitting at home with your brain, without having to work hard. That's called sitting in the pile of blessings."

Yu Qinniang loves to hear these words, but no matter how much she loves to hear, she still remembers her work: "That's fine, auntie, stop chatting, I have to go to the new house."

But I didn't chat enough, and shouted at Yu Qin's back: "When will your cabbage be harvested? Do you want to wait for your mother-in-law to come back?"

The one-eared old lady asked Bai Cai to borrow luck, and she always felt that the Xu family had very good luck since it became popular.

For example, the Xu family was not greedy when the potatoes and sweet potatoes grew up. They dug them out long ago, and the potatoes and sweet potatoes did not go out of production, leaving more than half of them.

Then plant radish for the first two days and vegetables for two days, and plant autumn cabbage for three days.

Old Xu's family finished raising potatoes, sweet potatoes, and while the land was still wet, they hurriedly planted radishes, cabbages, and green onions on the two-acre land, and planted the corners and corners, as well as the drowned vegetable seedlings pulled out from the back garden. And collected a lot.The Xu family did not show off to everyone, but this matter was not a secret in the village.

Otherwise, it's a good step, keeping up with each step, unlike them, who can't even keep up with hot shit.

But right now, the sky is getting colder, the leaves are turning yellow, the cold wind blows and the snow falls one day, which will catch people off guard. The autumn cabbage in the fields must be harvested.

Let's see, the one-eared old lady thought to herself: She has observed it specially, and the old Xu's autumn cabbage will be harvested in abundance again.

Because Chinese cabbage is not afraid of rain, it grows well if there is enough rain, and the autumn cabbage grown by the Xu family has high ground cages, so the heavy rain and wind did not cause any damage.

Fortunately, she passed by yesterday and Xin'er picked up the vegetables in Xu's field, and found that the cabbage cores were tightly hugged, unlike some of the cores in her house that were rotten and blackened.

The old woman with one ear was thinking about borrowing light, anyway, she would get it any day, and she wanted to work together with someone who was lucky.I didn't want to take advantage of it, so I just used the Xu family's belt to bring luck. It's not that there is such a word called taking advantage of the wind and getting close to Zhu Zhechi.

"Not waiting for my mother-in-law, I will go to the field tomorrow. I really don't have time today."

"That's fine, when the time comes, my mother and a few companions will sit on the ground and repair cabbage together."

The old lady with one ear saw that Yu Qinniang had turned a corner before leaving, and she was very moved.

As early as half a year ago, the Xu family was not in this situation, and the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was not so good.It feels like since Hao Xianghua became the convener, it has changed in the blink of an eye.

And what she envies most now is that the Xu family does not need to fill the dam or participate in village work.

Unlike her, even if the home is flooded, she has to put down the work first. After a while, she will go to the center of the village to gather to participate in collective labor, such as digging stones, clearing pigweed, and ulla grass, making thatched roofs, and helping the new house carry soil... ...If her family dares to be disobedient, then they are not entitled to share the work points, and they will be excluded by the villagers.

When going out to buy goods, Xu's family went out to three people, and Yu Qinniang and Xu's second and fourth children who stayed at home didn't have to participate in the work and could still share the fish.

Moreover, they were not only embarrassed to argue, but also thought of the Xu family's benevolence.

Because you don't need to go for the good things you agreed to do, what should you do, Yu Qinniang will still go to work with the women in the village every three days or so, presumably her mother-in-law told her before she left.The people in the village also knew that Xu Lao Er and Xu Lao Si were very busy, so it would be nice to have Qin Niang.Can you not think of benevolence and righteousness?
However, when it comes to benevolence and righteousness, the family in the old Xu family's old house is really not a thing if you want an old lady with one ear to say it in her heart.People in the village really talked about it when they were working.

Tell me how busy the Xu family is.

It's called my nephew's house, my brother is gone, and my family is busy building a large house, and I'm guarding the riverside because it's flooded by heavy rain, so I don't want to come and see it?It's the same thing if you take a look and ask.

For example, the old lady's temper is still there, and it's just that if she loses face as an elder and doesn't come, she didn't expect her cousin and uncle to show up.

It seems that this is going to move around in the future, and the one-eared old lady plans to tell Xianghua about it when she comes back.

……

Don't be sad, relatives are here.

At this time, outside the Xu family gate, "Brother-in-law!"

Yu Qinniang's eldest brother came to the door, and behind him was a cart full of valuables. Although they were not expensive things, he was prepared to bring gifts to the door.

The old lady of the Yu family also said, "You can live with your sister and help your brother-in-law with work."
