Farmhouse Golden Phoenix

Chapter 46

After buying side dishes, Su Qinghe planned to listen to the gossip, but as soon as she reached the door of the inner room, she heard Su Jingsen say: "Xiaohe, your mother and your second aunt are whispering, your children can't listen to each other, Go back to your room and read a book."

Su Qinghe was speechless, but Su Jingsen's wine table was placed in the right room, she really had no way to pass through, so she had no choice but to listen to gossip, turned around and left the door.Then I heard Su Jingsen ask: "Second Brother-in-law, you and Second Sister are still renting land?"

"Well, it's just that I don't chew it at home. However, I heard that Landlord Wang is going to raise the rent again, and I don't know what it will look like this time." Song Miao said with a sigh, the current rent is not bad. If you put down some money and then increase the price, it will be a year of work for nothing.

"I have something to do. I don't know if the second brother-in-law is willing to do it." Su Jingsen said a few words of comfort, and suggested in a low voice. Song Miao's eyes lit up instantly: "What kind of work? Brother-in-law, you have to save your life, Ping'er this year I'm already 15 years old, so I can't afford to delay any longer."

"Second brother-in-law, did you hear what Xiang'er said just now?" Su Jingsen said, and Song Miao thought for a while: "You said that about digging the pond?"

"Well, let me tell you the truth, second brother-in-law, I really don't have time. The family has dozens of acres of land, and Xiaohe has brought some new seeds over. I can't be busy. But they are two mothers, and they want to make money. Some money, I thought, this method of raising ducks and fish is not bad. Shopkeeper Yang in the town needs duck eggs very much. As long as this fish is raised, no one will want it? No, let’s go Send it to the county, if it doesn’t work in the county, send it to the county, it will definitely be sold.”

Su Jingsen said, Su Qinghe was depressed outside the door, and finally thought of a way to make money, but her father still agreed on the surface, but secretly wanted to push it to others.However, the second aunt's family seems to be relatively short of money now, forget it, the rich water does not flow to outsiders' fields, and this is not for strangers.

Turning around and carrying her small bucket, Su Qinghe went to the backyard again. During this time, the cotton seedlings grew a lot taller.In October, I will be able to pick cotton. This year I will definitely be able to wear cotton clothes. Now I have to figure out a way to let my mother know that these things are used for making clothes, not for food.

After Su Qinghe was out of breath and watered the cotton in the backyard again, the people in the room finally came out.Zhang Jinlian and Song Miao planned to go home, and Su Jingsen followed suit, saying that they planned to get two puppies back.

"I'll go too!" Su Qinghe hurriedly joined in the fun, Zhang Jinlian said with a chuckle, "Let Xiaohe go together, it happens that some green dates are flooded in the house, and I will give Xiaohe a snack later, and her sister Ping will give it to me." The new clothes she made are also just trying on to see if they fit."

Su Zhang and this second sister have been close since childhood. She regards Song Ping'er and Song Fang'er as her own daughters, and Zhang Jinlian also regards Su Qinghe as her own daughters. very common thing.

"Well, that's good, that's right, let Ping'er and Fang'er come to stay for a few days, your mother-in-law is used to calling the children, and Ping'er has to cook for the whole family at a young age, so it's very relaxing to come and stay for a few days Take it easy."

Su Zhang said: "It happens that there is not much work in the field these days, and I don't have to take care of your big family."

"Okay, then let's go, you go back, don't send it off." Zhang Jinlian nodded briskly, and waved her hand to signal Su Zhangshi to go in.Su Qinghe lay in Zhang Jinlian's arms and waved her hands: "Mother, you go into the house, we will be back in a while."

Mrs. Su Zhang just nodded, watching the two ox carts go away, then turned and went home.

The second uncle Song Miao has five brothers, the second uncle is the eldest, and the following four younger brothers.A large family has not been separated until now. There is no old man on the top, only an old woman.

This is the information Su Qinghe collected before, even if she didn't listen to today's gossip, she can actually sum it up.The second aunt's mother-in-law is eccentric, and always uses the money earned by the boss to subsidize the younger ones.

Just right, the small ones below are also delicious and lazy.With a large family, only the second uncle and second aunt were raised.Just like this, the mother-in-law still raised eyebrows and eyes at the second aunt, pointing at Sang and scolding Huai every day.

Su Qinghe went to Wangzhuang to pay New Year's greetings during the Chinese New Year, and had a very bad impression of the old woman.When we met this time, I just said hello patiently and didn't say much, and went straight to the second aunt's room after the question was completed.

The second aunt and the others had a small room, only one room, and the two cousins ​​were getting older, so the second uncle blocked a curtain with Gebu, the two cousins ​​lived inside, and the husband and wife lived outside with the younger cousin.

"Xiaohe is here?" The eldest cousin is a very gentle girl, with curved eyebrows and eyes, she pulled Su Qinghe with a smile: "Come here, I see that Xiaohe looks better than before, and I happened to make something for Xiaohe New clothes, if you wear them, they will definitely look better."

"That's right, our Xiaohe has always been good-looking." The second cousin has a similar temperament to the second aunt, and they are both relatively straightforward, so she patted Su Qinghe directly: "Come on, change it, our sister is not willing to make me a purse or something , all new clothes for you."

"That means I'm more likable than you." Su Qinghe said with a smile, the second cousin is three years older than her, about the same age as Su Qinglan, but much more straightforward than Su Qing, so Su Qinghe still prefers to get along with the second cousin , at least you don't have to keep trying to comfort people.

However, Su Qinglan, who has a stepmother, hasn't cried for a long time.Is it true that suffering makes people grow?
"You smug, if you don't look good in it, I won't give it to you. I'll take it apart and make a purse for me." The second cousin said with a smile, watching the first cousin change into the new clothes for Su Qinghe, she gathered around Su Qinghe circled around: "Oh, it's really good, it's pretty good-looking."

"That's it," Su Qinghe was about to speak, when someone outside said: "Okay, I heard it all, Song Ping'er and Song Fang'er, who have money to buy cloth for others to make clothes, even for their own sister I don’t even have a handkerchief, I’m going to tell grandma!”

"Who did I think it was? It turned out to be a rat spirit. He just eavesdropped on other people's conversations! In the future, I must tell everyone that there is a mouse spirit in our family, so everyone should pay attention to it. If you gossip, it will be bad luck.”

Song Fang'er immediately got up and said to the outside: "Oh, I forgot, the mouse spirit likes to sue the most, so go and sue, our cloth was bought by my third aunt, if you have the ability, let you Third Aunt will buy it for you!"

The little girl outside didn't know whether she was frightened by Song Fang'er's words to tell others, or she felt that she couldn't grasp the situation, so she just stomped her feet angrily, said "wait", then turned and left.

Su Qinghe applauded Song Fang'er: "Second cousin is really brave!"

"Little villain! Is bravery used in this way? Bullying me without reading?" Song Fang'er rolled her eyes and lowered her voice with a smile: "Look, she never dared to complain. Last time your mother gave us Some Shushu noodles, my grandma is still thinking about it, for fear of offending your family."

Song Ping'er yelled helplessly: "Fang'er, what are you talking about? That's our grandma. Even if she did something wrong, we can't say it."

Song Fang'er pouted: "Okay, big sister, you are a good person and I am a bad person, okay? If she is allowed to do it, I am not allowed to say it? It's almost as if we are cattle and horses, and we should work all day without eating."

Song Ping'er twisted her, Song Fang'er curled her lips, turned around and lifted the curtain and went out.Not long after, he came back with a bowl of mung bean porridge: "Xiaohe, drink it quickly. My grandma cooked it for my fourth and fifth uncles, with sugar in it."

"Grandma isn't in the kitchen, is she?" Song Ping'er hurriedly got up, and nervously went to the door of the house to have a look.I didn't see anyone in the yard, so I came back with peace of mind.Su Qinghe tiptoed out, woke up her sleeping little cousin, and then fed him mung bean porridge: "I lost my teeth, my mother won't let me eat sweets."

"Really? Let me see, how many have fallen out?" Song Fang'er suddenly got excited, and wanted to pinch Su Qinghe's chin to see, Su Qinghe opened her mouth: "Hey, the inside, the front teeth have grown out. My mother won't let you lick it, But it's itchy."

"You can't lick it, or it will grow crooked." Song Ping'er explained on the side, and when Song Weijie finished eating, she wiped his mouth with a handkerchief: "Weijie, today we are going to live at the third aunt's house, can you go?" go?"

Song Weijie is six years old, already sensible, nodded quickly: "Go, the third aunt's house has delicious food, our family can't eat enough, I'm going to the third aunt's house."

In a word, Song Ping'er and Song Fang'er's eyes are red. It's not that their family doesn't have enough to eat, but their family of five doesn't have enough to eat!If the family is separated, how can their parents be so hard-working, how could they not have enough to eat?

Su Qinghe looked a little depressed, but she couldn't get involved in this important matter of family separation, especially since her surname was Su and the family's surname was Song.

After finally waiting for Su Jingsen to come back with the puppy in her arms, it was getting late, because she was still rushing to pick up Su Zhiping and Su Zhian, so she didn't stay long, and when she came back, she greeted Su Qinghe and Song Pinger to get into the car.

Song Weijie didn't let go of Song Ping'er's arm, and finally had no choice but to take Song Weijie with him.Before going out, Su Qinghe could still hear the second uncle's mother muttering: "I can't stay at home, so I have to go to live with relatives? They are all big girls, and they don't even talk about learning to work at home!"

Su Qinghe curled her lips and looked down at the puppies in the basket: "Father, are there just these two? Do you have a name?"

"No, would you like one?" Su Jingsen said with a smile, and Song Ping'er helped out with an idea: "This one is called Dahuang, and this one is called Dahei." Song Fanger smiled and said, "Sister, what a vulgar name, ten Nine of the dogs are named after this, and Xiao He has been educated, let her think of a more refined one."

Su Qinghe blinked, clapped her hands and laughed, "One is called Wangcai, and the other is called Wangfu!"

Song Fang'er burst out laughing: "I thought you wanted to come up with a nice name."

Su Jingsen cheered for her daughter: "These two names are good. People in our village, why do you want to be so elegant? Besides, raising them is not fun, it is work. Prosperity is good. It’s auspicious and easy to pronounce, not bad, it’s called this.”

Song Fang'er smiled: "Third Uncle, you should face Xiao He!"

Song Weijie laughed along with him, Song Ping'er held Su Qinghe with one hand and Song Weijie with the other, and smiled with squinted eyes. When the group of people arrived home, the laughter continued.Su Jingsen didn't get out of the car either, and let them get off, and then turned back to the town.

"Mom, we're back!" Su Qinghe shouted first, and Su Zhangshi had already come out of the kitchen: "Hurry up and wash your hands, and eat some sugar cake first. I just fried it and it's still fresh. Are Weijie hungry?"

"Hungry, third aunt, I want to eat sugar cake." Song Weijie nodded quickly, and Su Qinghe knelt down and hugged the puppy out to play with it. The one-month-old puppy has a chubby body, very silly and cute.

Song Pinger washed his hands, and then went to help in the kitchen. Song Fanger dragged Song Weijie to wash his hands, and then watched him eat the sugar cake. The inside of the sugar cake just out of the pan was very hot. If he was not careful, he would be scalded. .

"Xiaohe, teach me how to read later." Song Fang'er also took a bite of the candy cake, and said with a smile, Su Qinghe nodded: "Well, yes, the second cousin is so smart, she must be able to learn it, in the future Be a great housekeeper!"

"Damn it, even you are making fun of me!" Song Fang'er feigned anger, and got up to pat Su Qinghe, Su Qinghe happily circled with her, the two puppies staggered behind, and Song Weijie clapped behind: "Second sister, I caught up with you!" Sister Xiaohe, run!"
