Quick Travel: Farm Treasure Notes

Chapter 38 The irresistible longing

Chapter 38 The irresistible longing
At the beginning of summer, it thundered and rained.

It is suitable to weigh people and pierce their ears and eyes.

Avoid sitting on the threshold.

Big raindrops outside the eaves hit the ground, splashing into palm-sized raindrops.

Under the eaves, a hook as big as an adult's hand hooked the clothes on Su Suisui's back. Shen Biyu held the scale and moved the weight until it was even.

"Twenty pounds and two ounces every year!"

For a baby girl who is almost nine months old, this weight is very healthy.

Jiaojiao and Jiaojiao put Su Suisui down and asked her to stand for a while holding on to the threshold.

The thresholds of rural houses are high, and eldest girls and young wives usually sit on the thresholds to mend clothes and polish straw sandals.Today is the beginning of summer. You cannot sit on the doorstep, otherwise you will be tired and sick all summer, and it will also affect your energy for the whole year.

Good health and good spirits are indispensable for farmers, so adults will be careful about taboos.

If a child accidentally sits on the threshold, for the sake of the child, there is a way to solve it, just sit on the seven thresholds.

Shen Biyu put away the scale, her expression suddenly lost, "My husband doesn't know that he weighs twenty pounds and two taels at the age of two."

Su Suisui knew that her mother was missing her father. Her father was taking care of her grandma at home and had not been back for many days.

These days, for the first time, she called her "Aniang", "Ajie", and "Brother", but not "Dad".

These days, rapeseed is tanned to a certain color.Aniang sauteed, crushed, steamed and rolled the dough in one go. She squeezed out the dark rapeseed oil herself.

After precipitation, it turns golden yellow.

For the first time, they ate rabbit fried in freshly squeezed rapeseed oil. It was very fragrant and delicious, but their father was not around.

When Li Xia came to visit, my father was not here either.

Dad has been away for so many days. Not to mention grandma, she also misses her dad.

Shen Biyu sighed softly where the children could not see, took out the sewing needle from the basket, put it over the fire, and picked up two old soybeans.Give Xiao Qian a small bowl and ask him to go to the kitchen and scoop out a spoonful of lard.

"Who wants to have their ears pierced?"

It is not easy for ears and eyes to grow back during the Beginning of Summer. Her best friend from the same village, Zhaodi, had them pierced in the Beginning of Summer last year. She missed it and had been coveting it for a year. She couldn't miss it this year.

Although the sewing needle in A Niang’s hand was a little thick and sharp, she still stood up bravely.

"I!"

Su Jiaojiao and Su Suisui tilted their heads to look left and right.

Su Jiaojiao likes to imitate her sister. If her ears are pierced, she will wear them too.

Su Suisui had her ears pierced in a silver jewelry store in her previous life.The shop assistant sister first marked the earlobe with an oil pen, and then hit it with an earring gun. It was like being bitten by an ant, leaving a cheap bright diamond earring on the ear.

In ancient times, there were no ear-piercing guns or ear-piercing machines. She was curious about how her mother-in-law pierced her sister's ears.

"Abba!" Xiao Qianxi brought back the bowl with a spoonful of lard.

"Are you ready?"

"Yes." Su Jiong closed her eyes and quietly clenched her fists.

Shen Biyu used soybeans to clamp her earlobes one after another, and patiently twisted and twisted them.The areas that have been twisted for a long time quickly turn red and look a lot thinner.

Shen Biyu fished out the long thread from the lard bowl and threaded it into the eye of the needle.

Twist it again, then quickly pass it through the earlobe, cut it with a "click", leaving a piece of lard-soaked thread in the ear hole, and make a coil.

Shen Biyu went around Su Jingsheng's other ear and did the same thing.

Su Xueying looked left and right in the mirror.

"Is this good?" Su Jiaojiao squeezed in front of Shen Biyu, "Mom, I also want to have my ears pierced!"

"Okay." Shen Biyu knew that Jiaojiao liked to learn from her sister, which made her get a little more excited.

Su Jiaojiao was full of expectations and gave one of her ears to Shen Biyu.

"what--"

Su Suisui, Su Jingsheng and Xiao Qianxi were startled. "Don't move, the more you move, the more painful it will be!" Shen Biyu quickly cut off the thread and made a circle.

Su Jiaojiao covered her ears with big tears in her eyes. "It doesn't hurt when my sister pierces her ears and eyes. Why do I feel so much pain?"

"I'm all wearing the same one, and I have one, so don't move around."

Su Jiaojiao shook her head, waved her hands, and backed away. "No, no!"

It seems that I cannot learn everything from my sister. My sister is not in pain, but she is in great pain.

"Are you going to wear it every year?" Shen Biyu shook the thread half soaked in lard. She couldn't let it go to waste.

Su Suisui tilted her head proudly.The ancient version of ear piercing seemed very painful, and she would rather be a beauty without pierced ears in this life.

In the evening, after Shen Biyu finished breastfeeding Su Suisui, she sat on the bed with her head dazed. Suddenly she had an idea.

Su Suisui sipped her golden fingers and was suddenly hugged.

Shen Biyu quickly wrapped her in small clothes and knocked on the other two doors.

"婧婩, Jiaojiao, little bastard, are you asleep?"

Su Yujie, Su Jiaojiao, and Xiao Qianxi didn't fall asleep, so the group sneaked into the night and headed to Su's house.

Shen Biyu even asked Xiao Qianxi to bring two eggs and two duck eggs, fearing that her husband would not be able to eat well there.She was also afraid that she would be robbed if she brought too many things. Her husband, Liu Fufeng, was weak and could only be robbed.

Late at night, in the front hall of Su's house.

Su Changbai kicked the barking dog tied at the door, "The beast has stopped barking. Jiafu should study hard on his homework."

Chen Cuiping glanced sideways at Su Changbai, who was lying back on the chair and dozing off, and complained: "You have studied, but instead of accompanying your son to study, you want me, an unschooled person, to accompany your son. Are you embarrassed?"

Su Changbai ignored her.

I thought that the old lady had lost her temper in just one or two days, and by then all the wealth would be hers.In the future, if you hire the best husband for your sons, are you afraid that his three sons will have no future?

That day the village chief came to have dinner with the old lady and had already divided the family property.What belongs to him is still his. As for the unfilial elder brother, he only got the three shabby houses where he lives and the thin fields he currently cultivates.

He has been a dutiful son for so many years, not less than a few days.And the eldest brother has abandoned the old lady for eight or nine years. No matter how attentive he has been in serving her these days, he is still not a filial son.

Su Jiafu, who was sitting behind the desk, looked up at Chen Cuiping and called her mother.

Chen Cuiping knew that she couldn't control that lazy piece of meat, so she gritted her teeth and said with ambition: "My son is smart. When you become an official in the future, don't forget my contribution."

"Come on, Brother Fu, read your mother's fingers one by one, louder! Let the younger brothers who are playing silly outside hear it!"

"Ok!"

Formation - "Chen, Erdong Chen!"

Luo - "Lu, double mouth Lu!"

Wu - "Zhang, Likou Zhang!"

In the deserted courtyard, the wall behind the locust tree suddenly collapsed.

Shen Biyu held Su Suisui with one hand and retracted her hand in confusion.

She remembered that there was a dog hole here, so she led the children around here.The dog hole was blocked, and she tried to push the blockage away, but to her surprise, the entire wall collapsed.

The group was a little confused.

Xiao Qianxi: Really, Aunt Shen is not an ordinary person.

Shen Biyu: The wall must be too old.

Fortunately, Su Changbai and the others were not alerted. Shen Biyu hugged Su Suisui and led the children in quietly.

Xiao Qianxi: Is it necessary to act like thieves committing crimes in a collective?There has been such a big movement as pushing against the wall, why do you still care about this?
Sometimes he really couldn't figure out what the family was thinking.

As soon as he entered, he saw the door of the only room with a light on opened and Su Changhuai walked out.

"Ayu?"

 Good morning. Please vote for me.
  Pray for my precious real readers: peace, joy, and great wealth!
