Chapter 7

The next day, when Liuya woke up, Song's second child and fourth child had already left with the villagers.When going hunting in the mountains, people from the village often go together, so it is convenient for this person to have someone to take care of them.

Liuya first brushed her teeth with a willow branch, washed her face, and then immediately went to see how the fish at home were doing. Fortunately, not many died, only four or five.Seeing this, Liuya quickly fished out the fish.This fish just died last night, but it can still be eaten. After finishing these few fishes, when we add dinner for Yaya, I can make some fish soup to drink.Although this fish is small, it is still meat, so it would be too wasteful to kill it.

"Liu Ya, stop messing with that fish, it's time to eat." Seeing that Liu Ya got up together and went to see her fish, Wu Ya hurriedly shouted.This mother-in-law had been arguing for so long yesterday about the fish, if she saw that Liuya was messing with girls again in the morning, she might make trouble again later.

"You guys eat first, and I'll come after I finish here." Liuya knew Wuya's worry, but now she just felt that her hands were dirty anyway, so there were just a few fish, washed her hands, and ate again Come on, it's so troublesome.

"You just use that as a meal, and don't come to eat this morning." At this time, Song Zhang came out with a sullen face, and said in a bad mood.

Liuya looked at Song and Zhang's expression, as if someone borrowed her rice and returned it as chaff. It was so stinky that Liuya couldn't find an adjective to describe it.

If you don't eat, you don't eat.That's called rice, rice soup, she might as well just drink a bowl of fish soup.This fish soup is more nutritious than a bowl of rice soup.Liuya didn't want to face Song Zhang's stinky face today, so she made up her mind not to go in for dinner.Get your own fish soup.

Liuya cleaned up the dead fish and went back to catch three live fish.These three live fish were stewed for Ya Ya later.After cleaning the fish and washing her hands, she felt that they had finished their meal, so she went to the main room.

"Hmph, I'm finally willing to come here. I called you to have breakfast, and I invited you three times and four times. I really think of myself as a rich lady." Seeing Liuya coming in, Song Zhang said angrily.

Old man Song glared at Mrs. Song and Zhang, then turned his head and said to Liu Ya: "Early in the morning, if you don't say a word, you will die. Liu Ya, come and eat quickly, and after eating, go get something for Ba Ya." This old man Song Although it is also patriarchal, it is not as serious as Song Zhang's.At least he won't scold his granddaughter, let alone skip their meals, which is rare.

"Grandpa, I've already made it just now. I also made the fish that died a few days ago, and I'll ask the elder sister and second sister to make it for you later." I thought that Mrs. Song and Zhang didn't leave any food for her, but I didn't expect to leave it for her today.After a guess, it was not Song Zhang who asked him to stay, but the old man Song opened his mouth, and Song Zhang reluctantly stayed.

For the sake of old man Song still thinking about her granddaughter, he boiled the dead fish for old man Song to eat.What's more, this old man Song is the daughter of a family, and it won't do her any harm if he pleases him.

Old man Song was happy when he heard this.Zhikua Liuya has grown up and knows how to be filial to her grandfather.Old man Song was happy, but Mrs. Song and Zhang's face became darker and darker.However, Liuya never thought of trying to curry favor with Mrs. Song and Zhang.Even if she tried to please her, she would only touch her nose, so why bother asking for trouble.

After breakfast, Sanya and Siya cleaned up the dishes, and Daya and Erya took their clothes to Xiaohegou to wash them.These clothes were still wet when Song Lao Er and Lao Si fished yesterday.In such a cold day, Liu Ya wanted to let the two of them boil some hot water and wash at home, but thinking of Song Zhang's virtue, she had to forget it.If this is the case, I'm afraid she will be called a prodigal again.

In the twelfth lunar month, the farmer's family is also idle.Boss Song is going to the town today to see what there is to do to help the family.Song Laosan followed Song Laotou to repair the farm tools at home.

Song Zhang went to serve Hou Li.Lin's and He's took their sister-in-law and a few young children to do needlework.It's not bad for Liu Ya to bother to do this, and she didn't know where her thoughts went after a while.

She has been thinking recently why this family is so poor.She summed up several points.

First of all, in this era, taxes are too heavy. Most of the food grown by the Song family in a year has been taxed, and the rest is not enough to feed the whole family.Just like the exorbitant taxation written in the history books, it is as fierce as a tiger.

Besides, there are too many children.Think about it, her family gave birth to seven.It's really a super guerrilla than that super guerrilla.But there is no way around this, if a woman here has not given birth to a son, she will not be able to hold her head up in her husband's house.Lin and He are typical examples.Otherwise, no matter how Song and Zhang scolded the two of them, they would never retaliate when they scolded or beat them.If these two people had a son, they would not be able to tolerate Song and Zhang's bullying like this.

Another one, although his father and fourth uncle can hunt and come back, all the money is in Song Zhang's hands.It's no wonder that Song and Zhang take money so seriously.In the Song family, Aunt Song and her fourth uncle are still missing.The married woman must have a dowry. If the dowry is less, she will not be able to straighten her back when she arrives at her husband's house.

To marry a daughter-in-law, you have to be courteous. Some families ask for a few taels of silver. Now the Song family can feed the whole family, and it is not easy to not go hungry. Uncle is doing the ceremony, so this delay has not been settled when the fourth uncle is 20 years old.

However, from Liu Ya's point of view, her fourth uncle is as good a man as her father.Every time the sisters ask him for help, he will help without saying a word.Fourth Uncle doesn't look smart, but he is honest and hardworking.If you marry such a person, even if it is bitter, it is also sweet.But these girls just have no vision, they only know to stare at Caili and don't value humanity.That's good too, lest you marry back a lazy woman, that would kill people.

Her third uncle, with a sweet mouth, is always lazy and slippery in doing things, and doesn't want to suffer.However, people are not bad.Just a little lazy.No major faults either.

The last and most important reason is that there is no separation.For example, the uncle and the uncle's mother only have the elder sister and one daughter. If they were separated, life would be much better.In fact, her family is the one that takes the most advantage. There are seven children in the family, so they eat more.It wasn't once that the third aunt said that our second room had more people eating and fewer people working.For this reason, Mrs. He always rushes to work, for fear of being gossip.

However, Liu Ya feels that this tree has big branches.If there are too many people in this family, there will be conflicts. Now the third aunt is still in confinement, and when she is out of confinement, she is afraid that she will argue about separating the family.She didn't dare to do it before, but now that they have a son, she is so tough that she might dare to challenge the Song and Zhang family.
