farmhouse ditty

Chapter 73
Mrs. Liu stood at the entrance of her house with a washtub in her hand, stepped into the yard with one foot, held on to the door frame with one hand, and looked straight behind her head, trying not to enter the house.

The big girl went up to take the laundry tub, called her sister to come over, and put the clothes to dry first.

Seeing Mrs. Liu like that, Ji Lao Liu "tsk" in dissatisfaction, "I said, you bitch, why are you still stuck to the doorpost, why don't you come in quickly."

Mrs. Liu listened to what she said, and then walked into the courtyard step by step, looking at her man and staring, she knew what Ji Laoliu was most annoying, she waved her arms and pointed outside, babbling with a smile with.

"Hey, what, isn't Chu Ge's parents here..."

Ji Lao Liu was smoking a cigarette, he knew about it, didn't they just pass through the house and call Chu Ge over, "Come on, come on, what are you doing!"

Mrs. Liu pursed her lips, looked outside, and couldn't bear to go over and talk to him, "Father, you know, that uncle and aunt wanted to move to live together, and the big bag , It’s a whole car, I guess they didn’t say anything in advance, you didn’t miss it, that Xiuniang’s whole face changed when she saw it.”

As she spoke, she sighed, "I just told Xiuniang this morning that the big house of Zhuzi's family was passed by someone, but now... oh, it seems that Xiuniang's August Festival Don't even think about it."

Ji Laoliu frowned, and knocked on the ground with the cigarette stick, "It's done, it's done, why are you making fun of me? Chu Ge was also in a daze when he was called over. It's not good either."

Mrs. Liu curled her lips, "This uncle and aunt is so smart, she came out without saying a word, and she brought her uncle's family with her, as you said, it's Chu Ge's room, which can be punched." Are there so many people?"

This Hei Wazi came out with a small wooden stool and handed it to Ji Lao Liu, "Father, the wooden stool you want."

Ji Lao Liu took the hand and said "um", sat down on the ground, sucked on the cigarette holder, and said to Liu Shi, "His mother, hurry up and go back to the house to cook, let's cover our own affairs." It's done, don't look at the things in Ren'er's house anymore."

Seeing that her man had spoken, Mrs. Liu had no choice but to shut up, put on her apron, and went into the kitchen to start eating.

She had just walked in front of the rice vat, when she suddenly thought of something, and came out again after thinking about it.

Standing in front of the kitchen and paused for a while, Mrs. Liu pursed her lips, looked at Ji Laoliu and said coolly, "Father, what are you doing sitting at the bottom of the wall with your ear on it?"

----------

This aunt with a big belly is a healthy person, and she eats well to make her skin white and tender, but she is also good at herself, with slender eyebrows, big eyes, small mouth, and red lips, after all, she belongs to a rich family Is it rich?

This time she was wearing baggy clothes, although she was a bit rich, she was still pretty.

Her belly, which was only five months old, was too heavy to rest on her body, with one hand propped up on her waist, and the other hanging on her stomach.

The farmer was carrying a few burdens, and said to the wife and aunt, "Auntie Chu, where are you going to put these?"

The half-grandmother stood next to the big-bellied aunt with a look of impatience, pointed into the room, helped her into the yard together, and went straight to the west room.

Chu Ge and his two younger siblings stood by the fence, with no expressions on their faces, Xiao Xiang'er looked as if she had just woken up, she was snuggling up beside Chu Ge, her eyes were red with tears.

Chu An held Xiao Xiang'er's hand, frowning with puffy cheeks, staring at the pregnant woman with hatred.

The auntie with a big belly took a few glances outside the West Room, still propping up her waist with one hand, slouchingly swinging her arm at the farmer, nagging him to give him instructions on what to do, listening to what she said, she still has a little bit of writing smell.

"Oh, it's the same, the thatched house has a rotten bed and quilt... Hey, you just put my things in this house, and I'll give you more money when it's over..."

"Remember to put it on the bed first... I'm afraid there are some things in the big wooden box... You can also move it out, put this piece for me to shake and put it in again when it's empty, I'm not used to others Used household items."

The farmer said "Hey" and was about to go to the west room with the bundles on his back.

"Stop for me!" A warm and angry female voice came, accompanied by a loud bang.

"Bump", a wooden basin was left in the middle, and rolled to the aunt's feet dangling.

The peasant man raised his thick shoulders, slid the burden down and put it on the ground, and turned around to see who was shouting.

Xiu Niang stepped into the yard with the washed clothes in her arms, she looked down at the household belongings and bundles spread all over the floor with a sullen face.

The auntie with a big belly glanced at Xiuniang, then pretended to be shocked, covered her stomach and let out a "ah", and the man standing beside Father Chu rushed forward.

"Oh Chu Fu, you really scared me, you scared my stomach~~"

After hearing what the pregnant woman yelled, Xiu Niang walked over and took a look. The honest man named Chu Fu was presumably the eldest brother of the Chu Ge brothers and sisters.

He is now holding her hand and talking about something, seeing his panic, he reckons that he is the man of this pregnant woman, and this pregnant woman is also Chu Ge's sister-in-law—Chu Wen Shi.

Xiu Niang stood beside her and watched coolly. Earlier, Mrs. Liu often talked about Chu Fu and his wife. Although she had never seen anyone before, she heard the name. Looking at this posture again, it is difficult not to guess. .

She didn't pay attention to Wen's hypocrisy, she just pointed at the things in the yard and talked to the farmer.

"I said, brother, please put these broken tables, chairs, rotten benches...and those rags back into the car, and move them back to where they came from. I will pay the wages, don't put them here to my place!"

The pregnant woman watched Xiu Niang take care of herself, and looked her up and down with drooping eyelids.

Shen curled her lips angrily, obviously dissatisfied with her son being so careful with his wife, the man just squeaked, and he jumped over like a monkey, almost not pushing her aside .

She can't get angry with people at this moment, so she can only piss on Xiu Niang, "Where did this little woman come from, why are you running around in people's house and making a fuss?"

Of course Shen knew who Xiu Niang was, and she had met her earlier, but this daughter-in-law hadn't followed her own wishes, of course she didn't recognize her.

Xiu Niang frowned, and said, "This aunt is joking, this is my courtyard, I haven't asked you yet, why did you call that nail rake over here?"

In fact, what she wanted to say was: where did this bad old woman come from, and she was messing around in her house, maybe she was blindfolded by lard and went to the wrong house.

But after all, Mrs. Shen is an elder, Chu Ge's mother, and even her own mother-in-law. If she tries to scold her, what will happen in the future?

When Shen heard this, she began to scold, "What kind of nail rake, you are the woman who picks up dung, you are the only one who picks up dung inside and outside of your family..."

As she said this, she suddenly stopped talking, and she scolded Xiuniang's family as a woman who picks up dung. Now that she is married to Chu Ge, she is her own daughter-in-law, so she is really a dung picker. Is the mother-in-law gone?

Seeing Shen's like that, Xiu Niang knew what she was thinking, even though she just wanted to respect the elderly, but it's okay to ask her to say a few small words to relieve her anger.

She looked at Shen and said with a smile, "I said, this aunt, you don't look young, so you can't remember it. What I said was 'bring the words back', how could you know that it was 'throw the nail rake? Call here'."

Shen frowned when she heard this, and grinned, "What a bitch, a wild girl who came out of nowhere dared to come into my house and play wild."

Xiu Niang also raised her voice, "Your house? Who are you? Just say this is your house!"

Shen Shi breathed out her nostrils and put her hands on her hips, "This house belongs to my son, I am my son's mother, my son is Chu Ge, who do you think I am!"

Xiu Niang laughed, "Ha, what a joke, you are Chu Ge's mother, I've never seen you before."

Shen shi stepped forward, rolled her sleeves and cursed, "You little woman...you don't know what a dead woman is...you dare to talk to me, get out!"

Xiu Niang became angry when she heard this, she snapped her fingers and muttered about things, poked and pointed at Mrs. Chen and the others one by one, and then shook her arms and pointed outside the door, shaking her arms.

"You said that you are Chu Ge's mother. Are you such a mother? Are you there when Chu Ge went up the mountain and sprained his foot half a month ago... Chu An scratched his hand a few days ago... Xiao Xiang'er tripped in this courtyard yesterday and hit a big bag on her head, if you are a mother, why are you not here!"

"...(Gasping for breath) I am Chu Ge's serious aunt. I am the one who takes care of this family. I am distressed. What right do you have to call me out? If you want to go out It was you who went out for me... You, you, and you, you guys, bring your junk and get out of here~~~~"

At first, Xiuniang didn't want to get angry, but she became more and more angry as she talked later, especially in front of Chugo, when she thought of how Chugo was pulling this younger brother and sister all these years, she felt like a coward. Can't stop the fire.

When she finished howling out of breath, two voices suddenly came from the neighbor, "Well said!"

Everyone turned around and watched, but the two people next door fell silent after shouting this sentence, only the laughter of a boy...and crying after it was over.

"Hahaha, father and mother, it's not your own mouth that you two are covering...Ah! Mother, dad hit me with a shoehorn, woo woo woo..."

"Cough cough cough."

This time it was Wen Shi who spoke first, she cleared her throat, and everyone came back to their senses, Shen Shi knew she was wrong, thinking that Xiu Niang must have known it, it turned out that she was the one who called Chu Ge himself Go out and live.

Wen Shi puffed her stomach, looked at Xiu Niang and snorted coldly, and said to Chu Ge, "Second brother, this little woman said this is her home, so she is your wife?"

Chu Ge listened to Wen Shi's questioning, although he had to answer her quite often, but this was about Xiu Niang.

He responded in a muffled voice, "Yeah."

Wen Shi chuckled, "Hey, I dare say your house is a rooster's nest, and the hens are crowing."

Xiu Niang didn't like it, she looked at her and said, "I heard that you were released by a big family, but now I see that you are right, you have lived in that boudoir for more than [-] years, and you must be stupid. "

Wen Shi was not annoyed this time, but just said, "You little mouth, you can hold your mouth. If it wasn't for the hen crowing in your family, why did you have to intervene in the decision of your man? Just now The second younger brother promised to make room for us..."
