Chapter 376 Women

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaohua suddenly felt that there was a reason for Zhao's Baozi's personality. He had no mother, and his father and brothers were not good enough. It is still 24 filial piety to marry a man. What can he do if he meets a mother-in-law like Liu's?

In other words, she might not be any better than Zhao Shi.

Feudal society is a society that eats women, how to resist?The heroine has to rely on Mary Su to resist, not to mention Zhao Shi, who is just a mortal.

She is too natural.

"But mother, you are so tired after so much work." Zhang Xiaohua's tone became low.

"Isn't it like this every year? This year is okay. Your aunt said she would make cotton clothes for your grandparents, which saved me a lot of trouble. Okay, don't press it, I have to cook."

As Zhao Shi spoke, he twisted his body.

"Yeah, it seems to be really lighter."

"Are you comfortable? I'll press it for you again that night. Mom, cut up the padded clothes, and I'll do it. I'll help you with sauerkraut."

Zhao was very moved when he heard this.

"My daughter is my mother's little padded jacket. I know I love my mother. Just do your needlework. You can't get rid of sauerkraut!" After finishing speaking, she left.

Auntie went back to her natal house before dawn, of course Uncle Zhang had to follow, this is called Liu’s scolding again, why have a daughter-in-law and forget his mother, what a hard-earned son is cheaper for others, and then there is a little slut, a big slut How bad the land is.

Zhang Xiaohua only curled her lips when she heard this, why not scold those who are capable in person, they will be able to bear it when they come!

Mrs. Liu has always had a lot of energy for swearing people, she can swear from morning to noon, and then from noon to night, and the break in between is because Zhang Qingshan is back, otherwise she could probably swear all day.

Zhang Xiaohua felt that Liu must have slept until dawn at night, after all, cursing is also a laborious task.

In this way, Mrs. Liu scolded for three days before stopping, repeating the previous visits.

And Mrs. Zhao is busy accumulating sauerkraut.

Accumulating sauerkraut is a very troublesome task. First, let the vegetables dry in the sun, and then use a knife to trim off the roots of the vegetables and remove the outer leaves of the vegetables. These things are eaten by pigs.

Wash the repaired vegetables, run them through boiling water, put them in a tank, and put a washed big stone on top to prevent the vegetables from overflowing after fermentation.

There are generally two important problems with sauerkraut, one is that it will rot if it is not handled properly, and the other is that it is not sour.

In order to solve this problem, some people put salt in the tank, and some people use vegetable leaves to paste the tank mouth.

In order to be sure, Mrs. Zhao took a two-pronged approach. This is a winter meal for the whole family.

There are nine people in the Zhang family, and the Zhao family has accumulated three full tanks. Watching Zhang Xiaohua spit sour water, eating like this all winter makes him eat sauerkraut.

Mrs. Zhao has been busy with the three big vats of sauerkraut for six whole days, with the help of Aunt Zhao and Aunt Wang.

The women in the sauerkraut village are all cooperative, you help me and I help you, including pickling pickles.

When the sauerkraut is finished, repair the pickle lumps.

This thing also grows from the ground, like a big radish, it needs to be repaired, washed, salted, and then cut into strips or slices to eat.It can also be served with other vegetables and meat stewed.

Or wait until the spring of next year and cook it in a big pot. If you can’t eat it and dry it, it will be a snack that children often eat, pickled vegetables.

There is another way to eat it, which is to put it in a sauce jar, which will have a special taste, of course, the premise is that your sauce should be alive and fragrant.

By the way, the sauces eaten here are also made by these women, which requires a lot of procedures and a lot of time, basically in spring.

"...I said Daniu his mother, why did you ask your brother and daughter-in-law to go back to her mother's house? This autumn is over, there is still work at home, and I have to finish my work before going back to my mother's house. She won't come back to eat!" Said a woman helping to repair the pickle pimple.

"My mother can't stop me, can I stop?"

"The third aunt isn't at home, is she?" Another woman asked.

Aunt Wang smiled.

"If you're not at home, you can rest assured."

The woman giggled.

"That's good. I didn't pick things up. Damn you, you're stupid. We all came from new wives. Who didn't just come in and do this? Why is she an exception? Your mother-in-law is not very good Well, why isn't this amazing!"

Mrs. Zhao couldn't answer these words, so a woman answered.

"Then you have to ask the man!"

Everyone laughed together.

"Daniu his mother, your uncle treats your brother and daughter-in-law well, right?"

Before Mrs. Zhao could say anything, Aunt Zhao spoke.

"Then there's no need to ask. Look, I just left it and went back to my mother's house. If it's not good, can I go back!"

"That's right, I've scratched my ears!"

"Women, marrying a man is worse than having a good pregnancy!"

"Yeah, yeah, it's just my guy who swears and beats with his mouth and hands. What do you do? If you scold him, he will beat you. You can't beat him. You have no choice but to bear it. I figured it out now. Yes, he scolded him, I pretended I didn’t hear it. I’m not afraid of your jokes. One year my father died, and I cried. He said that I was in mourning and wouldn’t let me cry. You said my father died, can I not cry? What! I want to die, but look at the children, how will they live when I am going to die. Oh, this is life! Da Niu his mother, you are also content, no matter what you say, Da Niu his father will not beat you what."

Zhao shook her head.

"That's because I didn't provoke him. If I provoke him, I will beat him."

"If you want me to say, this man, you should treat him like stinky shit. Don't feel bad, just feel bad for yourself and the child. When the child grows up and lives with the child, kick that heartless man out. most!"

"Hey, it's easy for you to say, you don't care about him, what are you going to do when the time comes, no man in this family can do it? Let me tell you, the widow Chen who went down to the river ditch, you know how arrogant she is." People, the man is dead, look at the days, oops, the land almost couldn't be planted last year."

"Really? Then what happened?"

"What can I do? I just found another man. I can't live without a man. I can't do it!"

While working, the women chatted and comforted each other, complained each other, and encouraged each other.

In a word, life is not easy, life is very difficult, and men are jerks, but we have to continue!

Zhang Xiaohua was busy with her needlework in the house, listening to the woman outside.

These women have little knowledge and no culture, but all the cognitive principles are told to them by real life, and they are also bought by them in exchange for tears, sweat, grievances and pains, which are far more true than those in books.

From their words, it can be heard that they used to be carefree little girls who loved smug beauty, they also longed for love and a better life, and they were also loved and tendered by men after marriage.

However, the endless trivial housework, heavy labor, and limited harvest, day after day, year after year, erased all of these, and even became impatient to speak.

Zhang Xiaohua remembered Jia Baoyu's saying in Dream of the Red Chamber that girls are made of water, but they will become unbearable when they get married. He couldn't understand it.

She didn't understand back then, but when she saw her mother doing housework one day, she suddenly understood, it's not that girls get married and become unbearable, it's that the life they face is different, if you get married, you still live with little girls look like?how is your dayDo you drink Mistral?
Speaking of which, what girls do is nothing more than a man's lust.
