Returning to the Pastoral: Mrs. Yipin

Chapter 26 Questioning
"How can this be done?!" After listening to Lu Erlang's words, Su Yun put down the chopsticks in his hand, and the expression on his face became a little more serious, "Erlang, you don't have to worry about family affairs, everything is with your sister-in-law. Only 14 years old, just the age to study, should go to school."

"However, sister-in-law..." Lu Erlang hurriedly interjected: "There is less labor in the family. If I also go to study, the family only relies on my sister-in-law and eldest sister. Even if I only buy three acres of land, I have to go to the farm and take care of the housework. No man to help..."

"Erlang, don't talk about it..." Su Yun shook his head, "Sister-in-law has her own opinion. Now that your eldest brother is gone, you are the eldest son of your parents. You will still have to support this appearance in the future. Only by reading can you understand, Only then can you know the righteousness, even if you don’t take the merit test, if you can read all kinds of scriptures thoroughly, it will benefit you infinitely in your future life.”

After a pause, he continued: "Look, there is still some time before the beginning of spring. During this period, we will work harder, catch more fish, and sell them for money. When the spring begins, my sister-in-law will send you all to school. ...Okay, let's not talk, let's eat quickly."

Seeing that Su Yun was so determined to send them to study, the children of the Lu family were very moved.Especially Lu Erlang, although he has studied for several years, he can still be regarded as an enlightenment.

Now that he is 14 years old, he has missed his time. At his age, it may be too late to pick up the textbooks and study the scriptures.This is one of the reasons why he proposed to stay at home and help his sister-in-law with work.

But his sister-in-law's attitude was firm, so he couldn't say any more.In the past two years, the status of the eldest sister-in-law in his mind has risen sharply. He respects his sister-in-law very much, and is not too willing to go against her wishes.

I also understand in my heart that my sister-in-law has placed infinite hopes on him. After all, as my sister-in-law said, after the elder brother passes away, he will be the eldest son in this family. In the future, he will provoke the whole family heavy burden.

A meal was finished in such silence, except for a few little guys who were still young, the older ones were all thinking about themselves.

I am eager to study, and I am afraid that I will increase the burden on the family, so that the braised pork suddenly loses its taste in my mouth.

Su Yun didn't think too much about it, but felt that the elder sister and Lu Erlang were too thoughtful. Although he also understood that it was caused by the environment, but seeing them in their prime, they were preoccupied all day long. There is always something wrong in my heart.

In her opinion, at their age is the time to study, and it is also the time to bloom their youth wantonly.But now everyone looks like a little old man, a little old lady...

Thinking of the growth of several children, Su Yun felt that the responsibility on his shoulders was heavier.

There is a long way to go, and we still have to work hard!
After washing the dishes and chopsticks, he sat down and was about to tell fairy tales to a few children, when there was a hasty knock on the door.

"Su Sanniang, Mrs. Su! You little rascal, open the door for me!!"

"It's third uncle!" Lu Xi'er, who was making a cotton coat, shook her hands, and a trace of fear flashed in her eyes.

Although she is timid and cowardly, she is not a fool.Yesterday, the third uncle and the third aunt came around the corner to inquire about digging ice to get fish, and she figured it out.

I also heard that my sister-in-law did not teach this matter wholeheartedly. Lu Xi'er, who has had the experience of digging ice twice to get fish, knew very well in her heart that if she followed the method her sister-in-law told her and her third uncle to get fish, it would be absolutely useless.

Now hearing third uncle's angry voice from outside, Lu Xi'er instinctively felt a burst of fear.

I'm afraid the matter has been exposed, and the third uncle has come to settle accounts with his sister-in-law.

Seeing Lu Xier's anxiety, Su Yun stretched out his hand and patted her on the shoulder, comfortingly said: "Don't be afraid, do your own thing, sister-in-law will deal with them."

"Sister-in-law, I'll go with you..." Lu Erlang got up and said, "Eldest sister, you take the little sister, and the younger brother goes back to the room first, they are still young, don't be scared by the third uncle, she has a loud voice."

"Hmm..." Lu Xi'er hesitated for a moment, remembering the aggressiveness of her third uncle, she couldn't help shivering, after hearing what her elder brother said, she hesitated for a while, and took her younger brothers and sisters back to the room.

Before leaving, I still didn't forget to look back at Su Yun and Erlang, and said in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, Erlang, be careful. Third uncle will hit people when she goes crazy..."

"Go..." Su Yun smiled and said: "Elder sister, don't worry, my sister-in-law has gone to the Palace of the Underworld, and she has died once, so why should she be afraid of being a shrew? Erlang, let's go."

It was originally a joke, but when Lu Xier and Erlang heard it, it changed its flavor.

"Sure enough! Sister-in-law is really seduced by the wrong soul, and she learned her skills from Lord Yan Wang!"

Lu Xier and Erlang thought about it, and suddenly felt that the third uncle outside the door was not so scary anymore.

Su Yun and Erlang put on their clothes, went to the courtyard and opened the door, but saw three people standing outside the door.Besides the angry third uncle, there were Bai Lianhua and Lu Anyou couple.

"Su Shi!" Seeing Su Yun, Cao Shi immediately asked loudly: "Su Shi, what do you mean?! Huh?!"

Su Yun looked "unintelligible", "Forgive San Niang for being stupid, what does San Shu Niang mean by this?"

"Huh!" Lu Anyou snorted coldly, with a gloomy face as if he could wring out water, and a pair of eyes fixed on Su Yun like a poisonous snake, "Are you still ashamed to ask? Let me ask you, this method of digging ice to get fish Is the method feasible?!"

"Oh!" Su Yun suddenly realized, "Third uncle is talking about this! Of course this is feasible. When Sanniang and Eldest Erlang went out to sell fish in the morning, didn't the third uncle and third aunt happen to see it?"

"Hmph!" Bai Lianhua pouted, and said, "Mr. Su, we are all one family. Since we are one family, we don't talk about two different families. We are also your elders, so it's fine if you keep secrets. Have to say a set of nonsense to tease the elders?"

"Injustice!" Su Yun looked wronged, and shouted injustice: "Third Aunt, San Niang absolutely dare not accept what San Niang said. Even if San Niang doesn't know a single word, the principle of respecting the old and loving the young is still worth saving, and she absolutely dare not Telling nonsense to deceive the elders."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pulled up his sleeve, pretending to wipe away tears, with an extremely aggrieved look on his face, "The method of digging ice to get fish was also thought up by Sanniang. It's so cold and the ice is so thick. Erlang, the third sister went to Yunxi Lake at the beginning of Yinshi, and the three of them took turns digging ice, and they were busy till dawn before they could dig out a small hole."

"You guys went to Yunxi Lake at Yinshi? You didn't come back until dawn?" Lu Anyou was taken aback, recalling the time when he met Su Sanniang when he went out in the morning, his face turned red, at least it was the end of Chenshi...

It seems that Sanniang was misunderstood.The three of them smashed it in turn, it took so long, he and his wife only smashed it for an hour, it is normal that there is no result.

Although Lu Anyou is also somewhat calculating, but compared to Cao Shi and Bai Lianhua, he is obviously much more virtuous.After all, in a land of orphans and widowed mothers, it is not kind to forcefully ask for the way to make money as an elder. Now that I have not got any fish, I will bring my wife and mother to call. gossip.

Thinking of this, Lu Anyou quietly tugged at the corner of his old lady's clothes, and said in a low voice: "Mother, it seems that the child didn't hit her for long enough, but I misunderstood Sanniang."

"Fart!" How could Mrs. Cao believe Su Sanniang's nonsense?Ever since her son and daughter-in-law went out to Yunxi, she had been secretly paying attention to the movements of San Niang's house.

More than an hour ago, she was watching the little bitch bring his eldest sister and Erlang home with a cart full of goods.

Her jealousy!Originally wanted to come to the door to inquire about the land, but thought that her son and daughter-in-law had already gone to dig ice to get fish, and she would soon be able to make such a big purchase. She wanted to share the joy as soon as possible, so she suppressed it The impulse in my heart is to wait quietly at home for my son to return.

But the son came back, but he didn't bring back a single fish.After this question, Mrs. Cao immediately felt that she had been tricked by Su Sanniang, so she was so angry that she immediately put on her shoes and clothes and came to the door to question her.

She has lived such an old age and is a shrewd person, how can she not see Su Yun's behavior clearly?Although the sleeves were wiping her face, she saw that this little rascal didn't have a single tear.

As long as my son was honest, he was fooled by this little bitch with a few words...

Thinking of this, Cao's face became even more gloomy.She gritted her teeth, stared fiercely at Su Yun, and cursed, "Mr. Su! You don't want to toast or eat fine wine! No matter how you say we are all your elders, you are fooling us like this." , do you still have dignity in your eyes?!"

"Ah!" Su Yun pretended to be frightened, and said, "What does San Shuniang mean by this? Could it be that Sanniang is the kind of person who doesn't know what is right and wrong in Sanshuniang's eyes?"

Su Yun deliberately bit the words "right and wrong" very hard, but his face still showed a look of grievance, blessed his body, and said: "Third Uncle's words are absolutely not acceptable to San Niang."

"You bitch!" Cao was angry. In her eyes, Su Sanniang is simply a vixen who doesn't like oil and salt, and doesn't eat soft and hard things. She is so contrived, and I really want to go up and slap her a few times, so as to teach her She knows how good she is.

She thought about it, and was about to do it.Taking a step forward, he raised his hand, and when he was about to fan the ground, he suddenly heard a bell ringing, and a voice came, "Master, we're home, we're home! Lujiacun! Hey, whose house is that?" Earth? How could it be so cold to block people's door?"

Cao was stunned for a moment, the voice sounded familiar!
Holding his hands up, Su Yun paused in mid-air, taking advantage of the gap, hurriedly took a step back, and looked at Cao Shi vigilantly.

I thought to myself: "Eldest sister really understands this Cao family. This person is really good at biting people when he is in a hurry! I have to be careful, don't be beaten by her..."
