The Spring of the Peasant Woman of Transmigration

Chapter 26

Lu Yumin secretly twitched the muscles of her face, and laughed at him disapprovingly. She obviously cared about a person, and she was about to become the king of Hades!So she stopped him and said, "I'm not very hungry with this rice noodle, I can only have a snack! I'll be ready soon, you eat a little first, and I'll ask you to have breakfast later!"

Regardless of Li Sanlin's answer or not, Lu Yumin hurried into the kitchen, forked a handful of firewood in the stove, and after lighting it, she was busy making a pot under water. When Li Sanlin came in after washing, a bowl of simple eggs The rice noodles are on the table.

Seeing Li Sanlin come in, Lu Yumin said: "Eat it quickly, I added some spicy peppers, it tastes good."

Li Sanlin took a deep look at the woman with low brows in front of him, he thought to himself, don't look at her honest appearance, sometimes she is very angry!Women really can't be spoiled. I feel sorry for her these days, so she climbed up the pole!But he felt very happy when she crawled like this!So he sat down silently, picked up the big bowl and ate it!

When eating the egg skin, Li Sanlin said: "Don't put eggs in the future, let the children eat it!"

Lu Yumin hurriedly said: "I traded this with my shoe heel for Fifth Aunt, and the little peanut eggs at home are all eaten by the children!"

Li Sanlin said: "Eat it yourself, I'm a big man, I don't need to eat this."

Lu Yumin smiled and said, "I don't do heavy work, so I don't need to eat eggs! This busy farming is very tiring. If you don't have some nutritious food, you won't be able to handle it."

Li Sanlin asked: "Do you still have the meat I brought back yesterday?"

Lu Yumin said: "I boiled the fat ones into oil! Is this rice noodles cooked without lard delicious? I soaked the lean meat in salt. After a while, I boiled it in water to make the soup, and then cooked it with rice bran. Yanyan, it can stay for several days!"

Li Sanlin said: "There is no need to save so much, I will go back to slaughter pigs in a few days, and I will bring back any meat!"

Lu Yumin said: "No, let's save some money. You don't have to bring meat back all the time. The two taels of silver I want to give to your mother haven't been paid yet. If you spend so much money, I'm afraid I will really have to sell the food at that time." Already!"

Li Sanlin said: "If it doesn't work, just sell some food!"

Lu Yumin immediately jumped up and said, "No, the food cannot be sold! The two children are growing, so how can they all be fed coarse grains? They won't grow taller!"

Li Sanlin looked at Lu Yumin who was chattering on and on, and after picking up the rice noodles in the bowl, he picked up the basket and said, "I'm going to the ground first!"

After breakfast, Lu Yumin went to the vegetable field to pick the vegetables, and then swept the yard clean, then took Niuniu and Yaya to the field with a bucket of jelly on their backs.

Many people in the field were busy farming. It was around ten o'clock in the morning when Niu Niu walked in the field and called, "Uncle Quan Lin, would you like to buy a bowl of jelly?"

Li Quanlin asked with a smile: "Is this delicious? How can I buy it?"

Niu Niu said proudly: "It's really delicious. Would you like to try a bowl? The small bowl costs one penny, and the large bowl costs two pennies!"

When Li Quanlin heard that he wanted a penny and a bowl, he was a little reluctant. At this moment, Uncle Wu Ming from the next door called, "Niu Niu, is that the jelly you gave us that day?"

When Niu Niu heard someone calling, he immediately replied: "Grandpa Fifth, it's that delicious thing."

Li Wuming said loudly: "Then bring three big bowls to my house!"

Lu Yumin immediately said: "Uncle Wu, three bowls of big ones count as five pennies!"

Li Wuming said: "That's even better! It tastes so good to eat on this hot day! Your fifth aunt left me a bowl that day, and it's so comfortable to drink!"

Lu Yumin immediately walked over and put the basket and bucket on the ground, opened the bucket covered with a wet cotton towel, and said, "Uncle Wu, you always take it! It doesn't taste good, no money!"

Li Wuming took a bowl and held it in his hand: "Okay! Yulin, Liulin, come and taste this."

Li Wushu's two sons immediately came over after hearing their father's call, took the bowls Lu Yumin handed them, and drank them all in one gulp as soon as they raised their heads: "Sister-in-law, this thing is really delicious, too. It’s cool! Bring some more tomorrow!”

Uncle Li Wu also said: "Yes, yes, I can drink it once a day, and the heart feels cold!"

Lu Yumin immediately said, "Uncle Wu, is this thing still useful?"

Uncle Li Wu asked: "Is it still useful?"

Lu Yumin said: "Drink more of this stuff, it's not easy to suffer from heat stroke!"

Uncle Li Wu said "ah": "Emotions are so good! That's even better, remember to deliver them tomorrow. Come, take these five copper coins!"

Hearing Uncle Li Wu's father and son say that the food is delicious and cool, Li Quanlin also brought two boys over and bought three big bowls for five cents. After drinking it, he praised that it was really good!
After a while, under Niuniu's yelling, a large bucket of jelly was sold out. Lu Yumin couldn't see much more, so he took Niuniu to his field. When Niuniu saw his father, he immediately called out: "Daddy, you Come up quickly."

Li Sanlin was busy sweating profusely, when he heard his son calling, he immediately stood up and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Lu Yumin said: "Come here, I'll bring you jelly, it won't be cold if you don't drink it!"

Li Sanlin came to see Lu Yumin who was tanned and said, "Didn't I tell you not to come out to sunbathe? The sun is so big that it is easy to get sick!"

Lu Yumin smiled and said, "It's so easy to get sick! Here, you drink it first. We'll go back in a while. I've opened the sun mat. You can pick the millet back when you go home at noon!"

Li Sanlin handed her the bowl and said, "Go back quickly! The sun is too hot!"

Lu Yumin said, "I'll go back first, and I'll pick the straw for you later."

Li Sanlin said: "You don't need to pick and choose, I can do these things as a man, and I can do them well in no time."

Lu Yumin didn't argue with him. Many people's fields are worked by couples, but Li Sanlin is the only one who works.

Putting down the wooden barrel, Lu Yumin told Yaya not to run away and come back for dinner early. Seeing that Lu Yumin was going to work in the field, Niu Niu also took the small pole and went first!

After changing her clothes, she was about to go out when her mother-in-law, Cui Shi, came in: "Sanlin's family, look at the daughter-in-laws of other families, who is not helping her man with farm work? Look at your house, only Sanlin is busy in the field, How busy is this going to be!"

Lu Yumin called out, "Mother-in-law!"

Cui said: "What's the use of being called mother-in-law? Take a daughter-in-law to come in and wait on her! This youngest is just disobedient! If you marry a strong woman to come in, does he need to be tired alone?"

Hearing her non-stop accusations, Lu Yumin yelled again: "Grandma, I'm going to help in the fields right now!"

Cui said: "You still go to help in the fields with your delicate appearance? I'm afraid you are going to add favors!"

Cui's face was displeased. Seeing that Lu Yumin dared to talk back, she turned around and left!

Lu Yumin smiled wryly: the most difficult thing to get along with in this world is the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, especially the mother-in-law who doesn't like her daughter-in-law!

Taking a small pole and putting on the straw hat she made herself, Lu Yumin went to the edge of the field, put down the pole in her hand and went down the field.

Li Sanlin frowned and said, "Didn't I tell you not to come down? Why are you so disobedient?"

Lu Yumin smiled and said, "I want to taste the taste of harvesting rice! Let me try!"

Hearing what she said, Li Sanlin handed her the sickle in his hand: "Then you can try it, but be careful! Try it a few times and then go up. It's not good for women to soak in the water below and sunbathe above!"

Lu Yumin nodded and said, "I know, it's just that women in our countryside can't just be kept at home! Look, is this how they are cut?"

Seeing her clumsy appearance in cutting rice, Li Sanlin had no choice but to bend down and teach her: "In this way, the mouth of the sickle should face down, and the hand should be held in the middle of the grain. The feet should be opened to prevent the sickle from touching it."

Li Sanlin's heavy sweat rushed into Lu Yumin's nose. After listening to his explanation carefully, she said, "I got it! It's just that I didn't do it fast!"

Li Sanlin said: "Who expects you to do it, and go back quickly when you get tired."

Lu Yumin said: "Okay! I'll learn first. I promise I'll be able to get started in a while! Don't underestimate me!"

After bending down and cutting a few lines, Lu Yumin felt that the sweat was flowing down like water. She lamented that it is not easy to be a real farmer, especially the ancient farmers!If she really wants to finish cutting these few acres of land, she will be exhausted!

Lu Yumin sighed while cutting, suddenly she found her feet were itchy, looked down, "Ah..." she found a shrill cry.

Li Sanlin, who was threshing rice, was startled when he heard the cry, dropped the rice in his hand and ran over: "What's the matter? What's the matter? Did you cut your hand?"

Lu Yumin was trembling all over when she saw Li Sanlin running over, she ran over and hung her hands around his neck, pointed at his legs wrapped around his waist with trembling fingers, and said in a crying voice: "Hurry up, Sanlin!" , I have something on my leg!"

Li Sanlin followed her hand and saw that it was a small leech biting her leg. Seeing her whole body trembling, Lu Yumin laughed uncontrollably: "Don't be afraid, it's just a small leech. I took it off for you, and said Let me not underestimate you!"

Lu Yumin relied on him and couldn't get off: "It must still be there, it's still itchy there!"

Li Sanlin laughed dumbly: "Okay, don't be afraid, I'll carry you to the ridge of the field, don't come down again!"

Niu Niu who was dragging the straw also ran over and asked, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Li Sanlin carried Lu Yumin to the edge of the field and said, "It's nothing, your mother was scared by the leeches!"

Hearing the word leech, the blushing Lu Yumin couldn't help shaking again. Li Sanlin saw that she was really afraid of that thing, so he said to Niu Niu: "Niuer, you go to the field to pull straw, and let your mother carry it home." .Then you go home and don’t come!”

Niu Niu said: "Daddy, if mother doesn't come, grandma will scold her! Just now I heard grandma talking about mother when I was outside the yard!"

Only then did Li Sanlin know the reason why Lu Yumin came to the fields, so he said, "Don't listen to your mother, let her say a few words if she wants to say something, and you pretend you didn't hear it!"

Lu Yumin said: "I'm not afraid of what my mother will say, it's just that you clean up this field by yourself, and you don't know what will be the end of it! My mother is right, if a daughter-in-law can't help you, then what's the use of it?" !"

Li Sanlin thought for a while and raised his mouth and said: "In the future, you and Niu Niu will help me pick this straw and go home! Let it dry to keep sandals. Niu Niu, you go to the field and drag this straw to the edge of the field, don't let your mother Go down and drag."

Niu Niu said: "Well, mother, I'm not afraid of leeches!" As he spoke, he quickly left the field.

After listening to Niu Niu's words, Lu Yumin blushed even more!A child like Niu Niu is not afraid, but an adult like himself, trembling with fright from a little leech, is so cowardly!But she is really afraid!Not to mention seeing that disgusting thing, even hearing these two words, my whole body would tremble three times!
