Lijiazhuang

After He Lu Congjun received the license, it became more legitimate for Chunmei to go to Xiaolinggang Chicken Farm to help.

Recently, the yellow-skin fruit grown at home was ripe, and her mother, Liu Cailan, picked several catties from the tree, and specially asked Chunmei to bring some to the Lu family to taste.

Chunmei packed it in a cloth bag, and carried it to Xiaolinggang.Before leaving the village, when he was near the house of pork guy Li Daqing, he ran into Wang Mengmeng.

Wang Mengmeng was standing in the middle of the road, with his hands on his hips, yelling at the back of a wall: "You bastard, don't let me see you, if I catch you, I won't skin you! You bastard! ..."

"Mengmeng, who are you scolding? It's early in the morning." Chunmei seldom saw Wang Mengmeng so angry, so she walked up and asked curiously.

Wang Mengmeng turned his head to see Chunmei, still puzzled, and cursed a few more words before angrily saying: "I don't know which son of a bitch, who threw stones from the inside and almost hit my head, don't let me I know who threw it, or I'd have to slap them a few times!"

"Could it be that when these little kids were playing, you just happened to pass by?" Seeing Wang Mengmeng so pissed off, Chunmei somehow wanted to laugh.

Wang Mengmeng didn't know whether these children were coming for her or if they had no intention of doing so. She only heard these children giggling and giggling when they were throwing stones outside, and then quietly fell silent after being scolded by her.

"Why did you go, this early in the morning?" Seeing that there was no more movement in the wall, Wang Mengmeng asked Chunmei with the vegetable basket on the ground.

Chunmei raised the cloth bag in her hand and said, "Go to Xiaolinggang, the yellow fruit is ripe at home, send some over there." She smiled sweetly after speaking.

Wang Mengmeng pursed her lips and said sourly: "I'm so tired of giving you beauty! I'll go to your house to pick the yellow skin in the afternoon." After speaking, she raised her hand and left with a vegetable basket.

Chunmei replied "whatever", then carried the cloth bag and continued to Xiaolinggang.

Under a big banyan tree in Xiaolinggang, several village women were sitting under the tree, doing odd jobs and chatting.

One said, "Since I bought two little piglets at home in the first year, I have no money."

Another also said, "The man in her family is planning to go out to work after harvesting this season's rice, so as to earn some money for the New Year."

Another said, "Her man's illness has fallen again, and she won't be able to earn any money this year. She can only live one day at a time."

Lu Zhengxiang's wife, Wu Damei, was also among them. When she heard those people crying and being poor, she couldn't help but sneered, and said, "Which of you is poorer than my family? My Zhengxiang family earns money alone to support our four mothers. The family is poor every day. With pickled vegetables and porridge, I haven’t smelled meat for almost a month.”

A village woman was not convinced, and said, "Damei, your family is really not poor. Your family's Zhengxiang can do construction, and the work costs dozens of dollars a day. If our family has this income, we will wake up laughing from our dreams." .”

A village woman also echoed, "That's right, Damei. Besides, you have such a rich relative in your family, who will help a little bit."

"Bah!" Mentioning this point, Wu Damei spat and said dissatisfiedly, "What's the help, there's no wool! Just yesterday, our family Zhengxiang was asked to help them build the stove, and there was nothing for a day of work for nothing. Hmph, rich people, be stingy!"

While Wu Damei was chattering, the village women just smiled and said nothing.Seeing that no one answered her words, Wu Damei babbled a few more words before closing her mouth.

At this time, a village woman pointed to a small road not far away and said in a low voice: "Look, the daughter-in-law who has never been in the army is here again."

"Hey, it's true, I've been here quite frequently lately."

"Hehe, can you not be more diligent. With her condition, she can catch such a rich in-law's family. If you want me, I will come every day." Wu Damei looked at Chunmei's direction and smiled strangely.

Several village women also laughed out loud when they heard this.

One said, "Actually, this girl is not bad-looking. She has a pretty figure and face. In fact, there are few in our village who can compare."

"Hehe" Wu Damei laughed again, and continued: "What's the use of being good-looking, but also can't give birth, the hens at home don't lay eggs and just eat, isn't it annoying?"

As soon as she said this, several village women burst out laughing cheerfully.

Chunmei on the side of the path heard the women under the banyan tree laughing from a distance, but she didn't know that they were laughing at herself, so she just looked there curiously and continued walking.

She went down a small slope and walked a little further to the side of the small western-style building.The door was closed, and she reached out her hand to knock on it, but saw Lu Congjun walking from the direction of the chicken farm with a box of eggs on his bicycle.

"What are you doing with so many eggs?" Seeing her man, Chunmei Xiaolu bumped wildly, and stood at the door waiting for him with a smile on her face.

When Lu Congjun saw Chunmei showing her shining white teeth, he smiled foolishly and said, "Here we come. This box of eggs is for Uncle Zhengxiang. He was invited to build a wall at home yesterday. Order the whole egg." Give it to his family to eat."

"Oh, do you need help?" Chunmei asked.She saw that the big box of eggs was not light, and the dirt road in this village was bumpy, so she wanted to help.

"No, just stand there and wait." While speaking, Lu Congjun pushed his bicycle and quickly walked in front of her.He held the front of the bicycle firmly with both hands, but whispered in her ear with his lips: "Save your strength and warm me up later."

Chunmei blushed and gave him a shy thump, but Lu Congjun laughed happily.

The two opened the door one after the other and entered the room, and saw Guo Lanying sitting at home watching TV peeling beans.

"Chunmei is here, come, let's watch TV with mom." She waved her hand with a smile, her face full of kindness.

Chunmei responded, and helped Lu Congjun unload the box of eggs in the rear seat, then happily walked to the living room.

"Mom, this is the yellow fruit grown by my natal family. Try it, it's not sour or sweet at all." Chunmei took out the yellow fruit from the cloth bag and put it on the table, and said to Guo Lanying.

Guo Lanying put down the beans in her hand, picked one, put it in her mouth, tasted it, and said, "Well, it's really sweet! Congjun, come and eat the yellow skin, and see how kind your mother-in-law treats you!"

Lu Congjun washed his hands and came in with a cheerful smile and said, "That's right, if you have a good wife, you will have a good mother-in-law. Mom, I'll send two boxes of eggs to the mother-in-law's home later." After finishing speaking, he still remembered She cast a wink at Chunmei.

"Okay, it should be. If there is something good in the future, we should remember it more. She married a daughter as good as Chunmei into our family. Thanks!"

"Mom, I see what you said. My natal family also has some eggs, and there is a hen at home that happens to be laying eggs." Chunmei said shyly.

"Just listen to our mother, I will send two boxes later. It takes a few days for a hen to lay eggs to make enough for one meal." Lu Congjun came over and took Chunmei's hand naturally, Sit down beside her.

Now that her mother-in-law and her husband had said so, Chunmei could only nod her head in agreement.
