After having lunch in the old yard and preparing it at Hehua's house, Zhu Laosi helped support Zhu Yongxin who was drunk. Fang couldn't help frowning and said to Lao Si, look at your second brother, he is really getting more and more promising now. Gao, I really can't stand him. Chapter 159: Putting out the lights in the middle of July”
Zhu Laosi smiled and said, "Second sister-in-law, my second brother is so happy. My daughter just got engaged, and Bo Rong is also promising, and he is about to become a grandfather. Who can not be happy?" "
"Do you have to drink so much wine to be happy?" Ms. Fang said, still a little unhappy, "When my sister-in-law gave birth to a pair of fat children for you, I didn't even watch you get drunk."
Zhu Laosi just smiled when he heard the words. Fang just complained casually and just listened without saying anything. Sure enough, Fang said a few more words that Zhu Yongxin was so drunk that he couldn't hear them, so he simply stopped talking.
Bo Rong and Xiao Xiu were at the end. Bo Rong wanted to reach out to help Xiao Xiu, but Xiao Xiu raised his hand to hit him. He lowered his voice and said, "You haven't felt embarrassed at noon, haven't you? Are you still like this outside?" It's not like I can't leave. "
Bo Rong also said softly: The ground is uneven and there are so many stones and clods. What if you don't stand firm? I'm not afraid of you falling."
"I've walked this road countless times, and I've never fallen. Why can't I walk now?" Xiao Xiu refused to be supported by him, and the two of them were tugging and mumbling behind him.
Lotus couldn't help but snicker when he heard it in front, but he was still very kind and didn't look back. Instead, Shuan Zi covered his eyes with his hands from time to time. Chapter 159: Put on the lamp in the middle of July, and then slit it from his fingers. He looked back inside, then took Lotus's hand and whispered, "Shame on my face"
Hehua pulled him forward quickly, then tapped his forehead and said, you ghost, what do you mean by shame? "
"I went out to play with Huzi two days ago. When I saw Auntie and Fu Lai by the river, Brother Huzi covered his eyes with his hands in shame, then pulled me and ran away." Shuanzi said to Hehua seriously. He said, "Brother Huzi said that a man is embarrassed when he is with a woman."
Hehua knelt down and asked, do you think the second sister is a woman? You are a man, right? Are we embarrassed to be together every day? "
Shuanzi was immediately confused by what Hehua said, scratched his head and said no..."
"So, don't talk nonsense everywhere." Hehua pinched his nose, and then suddenly asked, "What, you and Huzi went to the river? When did you go?"
Shuanzi realized that he had lied, so he immediately broke away from Hehua's hand, covered his mouth and ran to Fang's side to get tired of it.
Hehua glared at him and thought to herself that she would take care of the two boys when she got home. After she got home, she wanted to take the basket to cut mushrooms. Madam Fang, I picked up a basket of eggs and asked my sister-in-law to take them back to the city. Use it to replenish your body. "
"Go back to the city. Your sister-in-law is pregnant now. Of course we will take care of her at home. Not to mention the bumps and bumps along the way. When your brother is studying in the city and Dr. Zheng is opening a medical clinic, who can take care of her? Huh? How can it be convenient at our house, and your sister-in-law is so thin, so I have to cook for her at home so that she can eat well." Mrs. Fang opened the cloth on the basket and put the eggs back into the cabinet. He looked at the list of eggs in it and said, "It's hot today, so the eggs can't be kept for too long. When your father sobers up, ask him to set up a car to take your eldest brother back to the city, and then sell the eggs by the way. You have to go to Dr. Zheng." It's a big deal for the family to announce the good news, so it would look more solemn to ask your father to go there, but it wouldn't look good if your brother goes to deliver the message."
"Okay, whatever Mom says, I'll just listen to Mom and work." He Hua smiled and went to cook a bowl of hangover soup for Zhu Yongxin and feed it to her. Then she came out and picked up all the eggs she had accumulated in the past few days. Go to the big basket where eggs are sold in the city. Put eggs one layer at a time and hay on top. Then fill the gaps with hay and tie them up with ropes. There are four baskets in total, so that both Liangzi and Borong can I moved outside to prepare for loading the car for a while, and then asked Liangzi, Liangzi, if it’s time to cut our mushrooms and sell them? Although there is no shortage of mushrooms in the current season, if you don’t cut them when they grow up, you won’t be able to eat them. "
When Bo Rong heard this, I thought that there are a lot of mushrooms in the forest now, and you can't sell those mushrooms at a good price. It's better to dry them and keep them while the weather is hot and the sun is good, and then sell the dried mushrooms in the winter. It doesn’t take much effort, but it’s actually more cost-effective than selling it now. "
"Brother, that's a good idea. Why didn't I think of it?" He Hua slapped her forehead and said, "Then I'll cut the mushrooms, then tie them up and hang them to dry."
Hearing this, Shaoyao picked up the curtain and came out of the house and said to Hehua, "I'll go. You've been busy today. Besides, you've just had dinner, shouldn't you go for a walk?" "
When He Hua heard this, she remembered that today was a day off from school. Now Qi Jintang is much freer than before. When he returns to the village for two or three days every month, he can go out for a walk. He is not as tightly controlled as before. So he didn't go back to Borong. Qi Jintang would always ask Hehua to meet her at the old place before going back to the city. He would always bring her a book or something else. He Hua always remembered it well in the past, but now she was so happy about Xiao Xiuyou's pregnancy that she forgot about it for a moment, so she handed the tool in her hand to Brother Shaoyao Dao Liangzi, "Then you and Sister Shaoyao go to cut mushrooms together." Look for large flowers and cut them, but don't cut them too deeply. Leave the young shoots first to see if they can grow back. Then don't wear them all, leave me some of the best ones, and I'll teach you how to get those mushroom seeds. " Hehua felt extremely awkward every time she mentioned mushroom seeds, but she couldn't tell Liangzi and Shaoyao about mycelial colonies, so she had no choice but to use such a name that they could understand at first sight, and then comforted herself in her heart, waiting for it later. The more you bark, the more you get used to it.
Just as she turned to go out, she suddenly remembered that she ran back to the stove to get a clean small earthenware jar, pulled the jar out of the well, filled a small jar of honey water sand fruit, and then wrapped the earthenware jar with a thick hand towel , then hurried to the mountain with a basket, and as expected, Qi Jintang was already waiting under the tree. The weather in early July was still very hot, especially the afternoon sun. Although it was under the shade of the trees in the mountain, Qi Jintang's forehead There were still fine beads of sweat on my face.
"Brother Jintang," He Hua quickly stepped forward embarrassedly and said, "I have something to do at home today, so I was delayed. Have you been waiting for a long time? There are many words."
"No, what's going on at home?" Qi Jintang reached out and took the basket, giving up some of the shade to the lotus.
"My sister-in-law is pregnant, and it's hard to make my brother happy. There has been so much noise at home, and I almost forgot about it." Hehua knelt down and took out the earthen pot, then took a spoon from the bag and said , "Here, honey water sand fruit has been hanging in my well. It's still cool and refreshing at the moment."
"Then I'm back to school, so I have to congratulate Brother Borong." Qi Jintang took the spoon and took a bite from the earthen pot held by Lotus. Sure enough, a sweet and cool feeling instantly slid from his mouth to his stomach. Inside, people suddenly feel cool.
Hehua took out another spoon and took a bite. Then she puffed her cheeks and said that this would be the most delicious if made with cherries. Sha Guo always felt that the taste was a bit lacking. "
"It's a great pleasure to be able to eat this in the summer. You girl is really naughty." Qi Jintang said, "But I also went to the ice water shop in the city to eat ice water, and it was still the same as the one you sell. It tastes the best, and you can’t taste anything else except the sweetness. The jujube one you made is not only sweet and sour, but also has the aroma of fruit wine, which is very special. "
"If they all do the same thing, my family will have no money to make."
Lotus and Qi Jintang, you and I ate up the honey-water sand fruit one spoonful at a time, and then Qi Jintang took out a pamphlet from his arms and said, have you read the story I told you last time? This is what comes later. "
I don’t know who wrote this book, Lotus Seizes the Way. The writing is really good, but the story pattern is a bit too simple. It’s all about a monster and a person who want to be together, whether it’s a male monster or a female monster. Anyway, there will be obstacles on the left and right, either that person's family, a warlock, or other monsters, but no matter how many difficulties there are in the way, one person and one monster will overcome all difficulties in the end, and they will be together happily... " The more He Hua talked about it, the more embarrassed she felt, then she turned to ask Qi Jintang, "You've seen them all, don't you think they are all similar?"
Qi Jintang thought about it after hearing this, and asked seriously, isn't it good that two people who like each other can overcome difficulties and finally be together happily
"It's not that I feel bad, I just think... maybe it's a little too one-dimensional." Hehua smiled, rolled up the booklet and put it in her sleeves, "But the story is still quite interesting, and this guy is really good at writing about fighting. , it was really enjoyable to watch the place where the carp spirit and the clam monster fought last time.”
"Ahem, then I will pick out a few more stories involving fighting and copy them to you." Qi Jintang coughed and said, "By the way, I heard from my classmates in school that on July 15th, there was a man in the upper reaches of the river. There will be a religious ceremony in the place, and river lanterns will be put out at that time. Have you ever seen river lanterns put out? Then I will ask you to come out with me to watch, okay?"
"Okay, I have never seen a river lantern before." He Hua naturally agreed. After sending Qi Jintang away, she arrived home just in time to catch up with Zhu Yongxin and Borong who were also leaving for the city. She hurriedly told Brother Borong that in the future, Hurry up when you have a holiday, don't let your sister-in-law think about you all the time. "
"You're such a kid." Bo Rong flicked Hehua's forehead, then turned around and said to Xiao Xiu, "I will take care of your father. You can take good care of yourself at home and don't worry about it. I'm on vacation this month. It is said that we have holidays on the first, fifteenth day and the end of the month, so next month because of the Mid-Autumn Festival, we will also have these three days off. If I can stay for two days at the end of the month."
"You have told me several times, go quickly, otherwise dad will be greedy." Although Xiaoxiu is a little reluctant to let go. She and Bo Rong have never been apart for such a long time after getting married, but she also understands that the most important thing now is her belly. There were children in the car, and her father-in-law had already loaded up the car and was waiting, so she urged Bo Rong to leave quickly. However, when she saw him getting into the car with only half his legs, she couldn’t help but stepped forward and said, “Now that I’m not in the city, you just have to If you can eat it in school, if you don't eat well, go out and buy some. Don't just focus on saving money. Your health is the most important thing."
"Well, don't worry, you all can go," Bo Rong waved to his family.
Finally, Zhu Yongxin saw that Mr. Fang seemed to be about to speak, so he hurriedly pulled the reins and said a little impatiently, "You guys should go back to the house quickly. It's not like you have to go out for a long time to make up for it. We'll see you in the middle of the month. It's really unbearable." "
Upon hearing this, Bo Rong also smiled and said, Dad, let's go, otherwise you will have to spend the night in the city. "
In the next few days, Hehua assigned Huzi and Shuanzi twice as many new words and endorsement tasks as before. The two of them were so tired that they complained incessantly. They wanted to talk in their sleep, let alone go out to play. They are all endorsing, but there is no one to complain to. Bo Rong has returned to the city. Bo Ning has always been in the same camp as He Hua. The adults of the two families and other people are all illiterate and can only say that they all Listening to Hehua didn't have any effect at all, so the two of them could only hold on and endure it.
After holding on like this for five days, Hehua relied on the two of them to memorize new words and memorized the book, and asked with a smile if he was tired from the past few days. "
After hearing this, Shuanzi lay down on the kang and said he was exhausted. Second sister, what's been going on with you these days? Didn't you teach us what it means to encourage seedlings to grow and what it means to combine work and rest? Why do you want to go to death to ask us to endorse it? Every morning from getting up to going to bed, apart from eating and going to the toilet, all that was left was memorizing and practicing calligraphy. I hadn't gone out to play for several days. "
"That's right. I just want to be so tired that you two don't go out to play. Otherwise, both of you will be disobedient and dare to sneak to the river. I really lent you two courage, right?" He Huayu said The book in his hand lightly tapped Shuanzi and Huzi on the forehead, "It's best this way. We don't have time to go out, so we don't have to worry about you two getting into trouble."
It turned out that Shuanzi had caused trouble by letting slip a few days ago. He quickly got up, hugged Hehua's arm and said, "Second sister, what have you done? Go not to the river, but to the woods by the river. We are so far away from each other. You have really wronged both of us this time. "
Hehua looked at Shuanzi suspiciously, then turned to Huzi and asked Huzi, "Sister Hehua, you are the most honest and never lie. Tell me, did you two go to the riverside?" "
After hearing this, Huzi's eyes drifted towards Shuanzi. Hehua said don't look at him, looked at me and said, have you gone to the river? "
"We went, but we only went to a certain forest. We didn't go to the waterside. My mother, aunt, and you all told us, but we didn't dare." Huzi said with a wink.
He Hua looked at him as if he was lying, trying to distract the other person with his innocent eyes, and then gain his trust by acting cute. However, although she was very suspicious, she still did not continue at this moment. If we continue to pursue the case, because the punishment of these few days is enough to teach them both a lesson, I just said, "I'll just give it to you once, but if you let me and you two go to the river to play in the water in the future, no matter who tells me Yes, anyway, if it happens again, I will ask you to memorize and practice calligraphy like this every day, and no one will go out at all, do you hear me? "
Shuanzi and Huzi said in unison, they would definitely not go to the river to play in the water. "
Hehua looked at the two of them, fearing that the threat was not enough, she added, "Shuan, you are the last time my eldest brother climbed a tree in the mountains and was beaten by his mother. If you really want to give it a try, I won't plead for you." "
Shuanzi thought of what happened to Bo Rong. Although he was still young at the time, the memory of being so frightened and crying was still deeply imprinted in his mind. He immediately trembled all over, and then nodded fiercely and said to the second sister. , Don’t worry, I definitely won’t go to the river to play in the water. "
After cleaning up the two little ones, Hehua returned to their usual intensity of calligraphy and memorization tasks. After the two had gone through those days of training, they felt very satisfied and satisfied with their daily tasks. I am relaxed and cherish the time I can take out to play every day, and I am more attentive to my endorsements.
He Hua, however, kept in mind what Shuanzi said about seeing Zhu and Fu, and quietly observed Zhu. She had been smiling more obviously recently than before. She also liked to dress up when she went out and went in, and everything she did was transparent. With a sense of joy. One day when he saw her cleaning up the vegetable patch with Mrs. Fang in the yard, He Hua came up to her and said, "Look, you are going to be a grandma now. It turns out that your aunt is more beautiful than you, and she smiles every day." "
After hearing this, Mrs. Fang thought for a moment and said, it's true, you are in a good mood recently."
"Why, you are not allowed to be in a good mood?" Zhu scolded, "Bo Rong is my nephew, and you are not allowed to be happy when he is going to be a father. You two, mother and daughter, are really stingy."
Although Mrs. Fang asked several questions, they were all distracted by Zhu's jokes. Hehua couldn't ask questions, so she didn't bother to listen to the chat between the Zhang family and the Li family. She went to look around the mushroom room, and then went Accompany her while working in the small show room.
You are not allowed to use needles and scissors during pregnancy, so Xiaoxiu was tying a tape with silk thread, and Hehua was holding a support to embroider. The two of them were talking when they heard someone knocking on the door. Hehua jumped down and said strangely that she could have sex now. Who is coming? He must not be an acquaintance, otherwise why would he be knocking on the door? "She went out and opened the door and was a little stunned. Standing outside the door was Vanilla. But she came back to her senses immediately and said with a smile, "The wind is blowing today. Why did Sister Vanilla come here? What's more? Why don't you just go into the house? You're not an outsider, so you still knock on the door."
Xiao Xiu was not familiar with Xiang Xiang. She was just Fang's good daughter. When she saw her coming in, she rushed to the ground to say hello.
Xianghua quickly stopped Sister-in-law Xiao Xiudao, "Sit down quickly. You have a body now, but you don't dare to move around. Didn't Hehua also say, I'm not an outsider. I knocked on the door just now to worry about whether you were resting." "
Hehua was a little wary of Vanilla's sudden arrival, because she might have only met Xiaoxiu once or twice, but what was the purpose of her visit today? When she turned around and saw Xiaoxiu looking for help in a daze, she hurriedly stepped forward. Introducing the sister-in-law, this is the eldest daughter of Aunt Wang’s family, Xiangxiang, who belongs to Huzi. "
"Oh, I have met her a few times, but the person and the name don't match up. I just remember that she is my mother's daughter. She is very good-looking. She has never been called anything. This time I remember it."
"Sister-in-law, you're so polite. I seldom go out and walk around, so I'm very unfamiliar with everyone." Xianghua sat down on the kang and said, "Actually, there's nothing big to do here. I just brought a few things." My son, I make needlework, and my sister-in-law is currently pregnant and can’t needle or cut, so if she doesn’t dislike my work, she can keep it for use.”
After saying that, Xianghua took out a pair of embroidered shoes from the basket she was carrying. These shoes were made slightly larger. When my mother was pregnant with Hu Zi, her feet were often swollen. At that time, she asked the doctor to take a look and said It was like this until the last few months of my pregnancy. At that time, my mother couldn’t even fit into the shoes she usually wore, and she went out to buy big shoes. So I thought about it and prepared it for my sister-in-law first, maybe later. Can be used. There are also a few children's bellybands here. I hope my sister-in-law won't dislike my poor craftsmanship. "
"Hey, look at how well the needlework is done. The stitches are so fine. If you feel disgusted by them, then I won't do any needlework in the future. I can't even look at the ones I have." Xiao Xiu spread them out one by one and looked at them. Now, the patterns on each bellyband are different, and you can see that there are male and female dolls, so he took Vanilla's hand and said, "It really makes me feel ashamed. I can't even call you a girl." name, but you still care about me so much that you made it specially for me."
"What my sister-in-law said is too unreasonable. My mother only supports us two sisters, relying on her little family fortune and her daily embroidery work to make money. If my aunt hadn't always helped us, my family would have been different. Now Hu Zi is still here studying with He Hua. Our whole family is very grateful to you. I have no other skills, just sewing since elementary school. Now I am pretty good at needlework. It’s not worth the money. It’s just to show some appreciation. , As long as my sister-in-law doesn't mind being on the stage, then I'll be satisfied." Vanilla usually rarely goes out, but today she said such a lot of words, she almost suppressed her face and her eye circles turned red.
Seeing this, Hehua hurriedly advised Sister Xianghua, look what's going on with you now. Even if we don't have the friendship between our two families, a favor from the folks in the village should be deserved, not to mention the friendship between our two families. But it has been since my mother and Aunt Wang were young. Everyone knows that you are good at needlework and you are willing to make it for my sister-in-law. Naturally, we all accept it happily and will not be polite to you. But do you say we are grateful? If you say that, you are extremely smart. If my mother hears it, I see she won’t be able to lecture you."
Vanilla wiped her tears with her handkerchief and said, "Yes, Hehua is right. I rarely talk so much. Today, I feel like I am in love with my sister-in-law. I said too much all of a sudden, but I actually said too much." "
Xiaoxiu took Vanilla's hand and said, don't say that, but sister Vanilla, it's not a good thing for you to be bored at home all the time. There must be someone with whom we can work and talk together. "
"After my mother got married, my grandfather and grandmother left when I was very young. Later, after Huzi was born, my father left again. People in the village said that my mother was a broomstick and I was a little broomstick. Now my grandma has no contact with us. If it weren't for the brother Huzi, grandma still cares about my father's incense. I'm afraid they would have kicked us out long ago. Where would I go to find someone? Let's do some work together," Vanilla said, wiping her tears again. "Auntie, Jasmine, and Hehua are the only ones who don't dislike me, but they haven't left the house yet. I'm afraid that people will gossip about me if I get close. I don’t sit there very often.”
"Look at what you said, it makes me feel uncomfortable." Xiaoxiu also felt a little sad when she heard it, patted Vanilla's hand and said, "Come to me when you get bored in the future, I'm married. Don’t be afraid of others talking, your brother Borong is always away from home, and everyone at home is busy with their own things. You and I are also companions, and you can also take care of Hu Zi, so you can kill two birds with one stone."
"This..." Vanilla said hesitantly after hearing this, "Is this okay?"
"What's wrong with that, it's settled. I spend most of my time bored at home, and even good people get sick from boredom." Xiaoxiu pulled Vanilla and said, "If you don't If you dislike my place, you have to come here more often, do you hear me?"
Seeing this, Hehua looked at Vanilla. She always felt that her uncharacteristically positive attitude was very suspicious. But if she had any intention, even Hehua found it impossible. After knowing Vanilla for so many years, she was simply worse than Peony. For people who want to be calm, Shaoyao's calmness is superficial. In fact, he has many thoughts and ideas in his heart and likes to learn new things. But Vanilla's calmness is from the inside out. It is the kind of complete going with the flow and obeying others. If she was someone who arranged her life, Hehua would not dare to say that she had a purpose in approaching Xiaoxiu.
Seeing that Xiaoxiu and Xianghua were chatting lively at this moment, Hehua naturally couldn't say much, but she was thinking about it in her heart. She should check it out more in the future, otherwise she would regret it for the rest of her life if something happened.
For several days in a row, Huahua came to stay with Xiaoxiu at home, usually while Xiaoxiu was tying her ribbon, and she was doing needlework on the side, and what she made was basically for the child in Xiaoxiu's belly, such as small clothes and shoes. Within two days, the two of us were as good as one.
When Mrs. Fang saw Widow Wang, she couldn't help but praise that your family, Vanilla, is such a good girl. Taking care of my Xiaoxiu has saved me a lot of worry, but you also told her that your family usually relies on her for needlework. It can be regarded as an income. Don’t always worry about doing it for Xiaoxiu’s children, but also take care of your family. "
Widow Wang, like Mrs. Fang, naturally felt that her daughter was accompanying Xiaoxiu and helping Xiaoxiu with her needlework out of gratitude for Mrs. Fang's kindness. When Mrs. Fang said this, she quickly said that this was some intention of hers, not what I taught her to do. , let her go. When the child is older, it is not up to the mother, and she cannot control so much. "
Everyone is happy, but Hehua is always a little suspicious every day. He often works with her with a prop, or asks Vanilla for needlework. Fang is very happy. In her eyes, Lotus is good, the only thing is She didn't like to learn needlework and gave her a headache. Now that Vanilla came to work at home, Lotus and Lotus started to learn needlework, and she felt that Vanilla liked the child even more.
In this way, it soon came to the Ghost Festival in the middle of July. The whole family had dinner, worshiped their ancestors, and then placed the offerings, wine, incense candles, ever-burning lanterns, etc. on the altar table, and then the whole family dispersed and went home. , Mr. Zhu, Mr. Zhutou, and Mr. Yang also went back to the house and lay down, because according to folk legend, in the middle of the night is when the ancestors enjoy the offerings. If someone goes out at this time, the yang energy of the living person will collide with the ancestors. People's Yin Qi will either offend their ancestors, or living people will get sick because they can't stand the Yin Qi, so they all close their doors and go home early.
Hehua was thinking about her agreement with Qi Jintang, so she quietly said hello to Bo Rong, and then slipped away halfway. After the two met at the agreed place, they walked upstream along the river, and finally chose a place behind the river. It's a place in the woods, where the shallows are relatively wide and the river upstream is relatively straight. Two people are sitting on rocks waiting for the light to be released upstream.
It was still early to see the lotus. He looked up at the round and big moon in the sky and said, Brother Jintang, people say tonight is the day when the gates of ghosts are wide open. Aren't you afraid of meeting ghosts at night? Don't skip the word.
"Do you believe there are ghosts in this world?" Qi Jintang tilted his head and asked Hehua Road.
"Of course I am..." He Hua was about to say she didn't believe it, but suddenly hesitated. She didn't even know how she got here, and she could still insist on being an atheist. She paused for a moment and said, "To be honest, I don't No, maybe there really are many souls that we cannot see that exist in the world just like us."
"If there really are ghosts in this world, I would be very willing to see one." Qi Jintang said with a smile, "But no matter what, the theory of ghosts and gods still has certain benefits. People have reincarnation and karma, at least they will Allowing people to hesitate and make choices between doing good or doing evil will lead to fewer evil people and more good people."
Just as Lotus turned around, he suddenly saw a lot of bright lights upstream. The stars were like countless fireflies, flowing towards the winding stream.
