Crossing Over I Became a Married Peasant Woman

Pei Xiu looked at the bottomless oil in the kitchen, a few spoonfuls of salt, no soy sauce and vinegar, the rice jar was full of rice, and there were two eggs in a basket. Come on, you don't have to look at it, you have to buy everything except rice.

It was just after the autumn harvest, and there was no shortage of rice at home. The porridge of the children was so thin that the original owner taught her by words and deeds. During the slack season, there are only two meals a day, and it is still so thin that it can illuminate the shadows of people, or put a bunch of green vegetables in it to cook porridge. Not only the original owner lived like this, but most of the people in the village were like this. The grain harvested this year will not be harvested until next year. Don't worry about eating, I will be hungry when the spring starts, and I will only eat wild vegetables.

When I came out of the kitchen, I stopped by the children's house next door and opened the door. The house was exactly the same as Pei Xiu's room, with the same four walls, only the kang, the table and the cage at the end of the kang. Pei Xiu wanted to see the children's winter clothes. When she opened the box, they were all gray and plain clothes with patches.

Three large, medium and small cotton jackets, I don't know how many years they have been stitched, and the cotton is hard. It's really freezing to death when you go out in winter. I really don't know how these children survived so many winters. These two parents are not at all distracted.

Pei Xiu went back to the room, thinking about the things that this family with four walls needed to buy, really lacked everything, so she quickly went to find the money jar hidden by the original owner, and calculated how much money she had left to spend. Pour out the money jar. A few pieces of silver coins, dozens of copper coins, one coin is one hundred cents, ten coins is equivalent to one tael of silver, and the silver is not weighed and I don't know how much. It seems that there are twenty or thirty two. In ancient times, the purchasing power of one tael of silver was leveraged. One penny can buy two eggs. Of course, this is only the price of the town. In my memory, I heard that Fucheng is one egg for one penny.

Yuanshen has really saved a lot of money after so many years. But you treat yourself and your family too badly. You have to spend your money as you should. When your body breaks down, do you have so much money left to buy medicine? Might as well eat and dress well and be healthy. Now that there are no people, and the money is left for me to spend, Pei Xiu is embarrassed to think about it.

Lying down on the kang, Pei Xiu fell asleep thinking about what she would buy in two days. The body is still weak and needs deep sleep to repair itself. .

When Pei Xiu woke up, the sun had already set, and she didn't feel as top-heavy as in the morning when she got off the kang. The whole person is more relaxed. I went to the table and poured a glass of water, and I vaguely heard a crunching sound in the hall next door. I thought it should be three children eating.

Opening the door, a man's low voice came from the main room, "After dinner, go to ask your mother to get up and eat. ''

Pei Xiu was a little flustered. She thought that her original husband would not come back so soon, and she was not ready how to face her current husband.

Hammer ran over, saw her mother standing at the door of the room, and shouted into the hall: ''Father, mother is awake. Mother, I will help you to eat. Dad came back in the afternoon, brought back a lot of game, and said that he would leave the pheasant for you to make soup to nourish your body. '' Pei Xiu's eyes lit up when he saw what he said, and his mouth was about to drool.

Sitting at the dining table in the main room was a handsome black man. He was dressed in dark gray, covered with patches. His facial features were straight, with sharp edges and corners like a knife. There was a scar on his left brow, which ran from his forehead to the corner of his eye. You can imagine how dangerous the injury was at the beginning. , almost hurt an eye. In her opinion, this scar also added to his charm, a tough guy with strong bones.

''Mother, sit down first, and I'll serve you porridge. '' Pei Xiu sat on the lower left of the man.

''Does your head still hurt? Is there any discomfort on your body? I'll ask Uncle Zhou to take a look tomorrow. '' Zhou Cheng paused and said, ''Don't save this money, wait for it to be more serious, and then spend more money. ''

Pei Xiu replied, ''Understood, let Hammer call Uncle Zhou again tomorrow to see if he can grab some more medicine. '' Pei Xiu thought for a while and then said to Mu Mu: ''Woo, Mother fell down yesterday, did Dr. Zhou come to bandage it? Have you paid for the medical expenses? ''

Mu Tou said honestly: ''Mother, don't be angry, the big brother also saw that you fell and bleed a lot, and was afraid to go to find Grandpa Zhou. We don't know where the copper coins are, and the big brother took the eggs and gave the money to Grandpa Zhou. . ''

When Hammer came out with the porridge in his hand, his face turned white with fear. Mother would beat people with bamboo sticks.

''Don't be afraid, if you didn't find Grandpa Zhou, mother might die. ''

When the three children heard Pei Xiu's death, tears fell. Zhou Cheng glanced at Pei Xiu and said to the three children, don't cry, your mother is fine now, just take care of it. Sit down and eat.

Pei Xiu saw that there was a bowl of porridge for each person on the table, not even a dish. This family is really good at living. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

Zhou Cheng saw Pei Xiu staring at the table. He didn't know how to cook, so he would cook porridge over fire. He coughed softly, "I hunted a deer, a roe deer, and two chickens this time. Three rabbits. The two chickens are no longer for sale. They will be kept for you to replenish your body. The other chickens will be sold at the restaurant in the town tomorrow. If you need to buy anything, I will bring it back for you. ''

''Can I go with you? I want to buy some fabrics, cotton. It's almost winter, and the clothes and quilts at home are not thick enough. '' Pei Xiu thought about it, and spoke boldly. In her memory, Zhou Cheng only looked fierce on the outside, but he was still very gentle.

Zhou Cheng looked at Pei Xiu in surprise. He had always lived a meticulous life and only saved money. Someone who was spending the same amount as she wanted her life actually said that he wanted to buy fabrics and cotton. It's really surprising, Zhou Chengdao: ''Let Uncle Zhou come to see tomorrow morning. I'll go to my elder brother to borrow a scooter and push you there. ''

After dinner, Zhou Cheng naturally cleaned up the tableware. Pei Xiu didn't want to go back to the room just after eating, so she let the hammer help her to walk in the yard and sit for a while. Watching Zhou Cheng clean up the tableware, clean the table, and wash the dishes so neatly, Pei Xiu didn't notice that his eyebrows and eyes were gentle, and men who would help with housework were generally not too bad. Moreover, in ancient times, in an environment where men were superior to women, men were the masters of the outside world and women were the masters of the interior.

After Zhou Cheng washed the dishes, he went to deal with the prey and peeled off the skin of the rabbit so that he could sell it to a fur shop. By the way, two pheasants were dealt with. Pei Xiu said: ''The pheasant will be stewed first, and one bowl can be eaten by one person before going to bed. ''

Zhou Cheng glanced at Pei Xiu and said, ''Okay. '' The chicken was chopped into pieces, washed, and there were no other condiments at home, so I put water and salt and simmered directly.
