Seeing that her daughter-in-law was seriously burning the fire, Mrs. Zhao was a little nervous and at a loss as she stood aside. At the same time, she felt a little unease in her heart. The daughter-in-law did not say that she was working on weekdays, and she never gave them any good looks.
I don't know why this change is happening today.
"What's the smell?" Luo Jianjia asked, sniffing.
Zhao Shi was stunned for a while, and it was too late when she heard her daughter-in-law's words and came back to her senses. She quickly lifted the lid of the pot and looked at the pot.
Vegetables are mushy.
The moment Zhao lifted the lid of the pot, Luo Jianjia also understood. When she was a child, her family was poor, and she also helped to set fire to the family. But this thing has not been done for many years, obviously, the skills are rusty.
Too much firewood is added, and the fire is too prosperous.
It's embarrassing that the green vegetables can be burnt by her.
Luo Jianjia was about to apologize, but Zhao Shi took a look at her and said, "It's alright, it's alright, it's because I put less water."
Hearing this, Luo Jianjia was even more ashamed, and quickly put down the firewood in his hand, took out some from the bottom of the pot, and buried it in the next layer of ashes.
Zhao Shi originally wanted to let his daughter-in-law go out, but seeing that she knew how to remedy it, she didn't say anything, turned around and scooped up some cold water and poured it into the pot.
"I haven't made a fire for a long time, I'm rusty, I won't next time." Luo Jianjia apologized.
Zhao shi comforted her a few words, such as not blaming her or something.
Soon, the meal is ready.
Today's meal is a bit richer than a few days ago. In addition to the thick noodles, steamed buns, rice soup, and a plate of pickles that I have seen a few days ago, there is also a plate of fried vegetables.
Boss Chu is not a talkative person, and he just frowned slightly when he ate the mushy dish, and didn't say much.
Seeing his reaction, Mr. Zhao explained, "I didn't grasp the heat well, and I was fried."
Boss Chu nodded and resumed eating.
These vegetables are grown at home, and they don't cost money, and they don't feel bad if they get stuck.
Although Luo Jianjia is familiar with the plot and knows that the two are easy to get along with, after getting along with each other for real, this feeling is even more profound.
In the book, the original owner used Boss Chu and Zhao's trust in her to defraud them of all the money in their hands. After the male protagonist became famous, the original protagonist also started from Zhao, pretended to be pitiful, shied away from the previous things, and made himself a victim.
If it wasn't for Zhao's pity on the original owner, I'm afraid she wouldn't have the chance to live in the male lead's house again, destroying the relationship between the male and female lead.
Both are very kind people.
After eating, Luo Jianjia took the initiative to wash the dishes again, but unfortunately she was too strong and broke the bowl in the process of fighting with Zhao.
Seeing that Zhao Shi was worried about whether she had pierced her hand, but also felt distressed about the bowl, Luo Jianjia didn't dare to continue to fight with her.
After Mr. Zhao finished packing up the things at home, he went to work in the field with Boss Chu. There is not much life in the field now, and the two of them went to the field to pull weeds.
When the two left, Luo Jianjia was the only one left at home. This time, she did not go back to the house as before, but instead cleaned up the house. First cleaned up the main room, then went to clean the kitchen and yard. Because of the sudden strange force, I didn't feel tired at all when I did the work. During the whole process, the only thing she needs to pay attention to is not to crush the things in the house.
After finishing the work, Luo Jianjia sat on the steps at the entrance of the main room, staring blankly at the yard.
Looking at it, my stomach is flattened unsatisfactorily.
It wasn't long after I finished eating, and it was time to pass. Moreover, because of the poverty, the Chu family only eats two meals a day, and the second meal is at Shen Shi, which means that there are still three hours, six hours before the next meal.
Touching her empty stomach, Luo Jianjia felt a little heavy.
Chu Weileng has been a nursing home in the Wangfu for so many years, and there is no place to spend money at home, so naturally he has saved a lot of money. It's a pity that Boss Chu suffered a serious illness before, which cost more than half of it. Later, when Chu Weilen and Luo Jianjia got married, the Luo family asked for a lot of money, and the Chu family's wealth was not much.
After Chu Wei left cold, Boss Chu's illness repeated a few times, and he spent a few taels of silver. Moreover, Boss Chu was not in good health, so he couldn't go out to find work, he could only farm the land, and the Zhao family had no means of making a living. Chu Weilen didn't go home for three whole years, and he didn't give the family a penny. The money in the family could only go in and out.
It stands to reason that two taels of silver is enough for the three of them to have a good year.
It's just that the son's life and death are uncertain, and the eldest Chu needs money to support him. The old couple can't see any hope, so naturally they dare not touch the remaining two taels of silver.
Boss Chu and the Zhao family are becoming more and more frugal, but they are not short of the original owner's food and drink. However, now that the core has been changed, Luo Jianjia is not the original owner. Seeing that the old couple is reluctant to eat at the dinner table, she is embarrassed to eat too much.
This made her hungry again half an hour after eating.
After all, there are still two or three months before Chu Weilen comes back. If she can bear it for only three or two days, it will be difficult for her to bear it for two or three months.
She could try to persuade Boss Chu and the Zhao family to use the money, after all, Chu Wei will have money when he comes back home. However, when I put myself in my shoes, I felt that it was too cruel to do so. For two people who have no hope for the future, the remaining money is their life-saving money.
Not only that, if she wants to go out and set up a household alone in the future, she must have a means of making a living, to be able to support herself, and to have money.
But how to make money
Thinking about it, I got a little thirsty again.
The food in the morning was mushy, so she ate two more mouthfuls of pickles. However, the pickles were too salty and she was thirsty. She had already drank three bowls of boiled water in the morning.
After drinking the remaining cooked water, Luo Jianjia went to boil the water. After it was cooked, except for some that I drank by myself, the rest was left in the pot.
After doing this, thinking that it's okay to be left and right, and unable to think of a way to make money at home, Luo Jianjia locked the door and went out.
Country people are not so particular, whether it is the description in the book or the memory of the original owner, she is still casual when she goes out. Moreover, the original owner is beautiful, and there is no one more beautiful than her in the eight villages in ten miles. She is also willing to go out with this face and enjoy the attention of everyone.
Just a few steps out of the house, Luo Jianjia met Aunt Wang who lived next door.
This village is called Chujia Village, and almost everyone in the village has the surname Chu. Aunt Wang’s husband is called Chu Erniu, who is the same generation as the eldest Chu. Although the two are not blood brothers, they are not far from each other according to their blood relationship. They are cousins separated by several rooms.
"Yo, isn't this Brother Leng's daughter-in-law, why, go back to her parents' house?" Aunt Wang smiled, but her words revealed a strange smell of yin and yang.
Aunt Wang lives next door to Chu Wei Leng's house. She knows how Luo Jianjia gets along with Boss Chu and the Zhao family on weekdays.
Being a daughter-in-law does not look like a daughter-in-law, but let her parents-in-law serve.
According to the description in the book, Luo Jianjia's temperament is very unpopular. According to the original owner's memory, the two of them quarreled several times.
At this moment, from Aunt Wang's tone, she could also hear the other party's dislike for her.
Therefore, she responded lightly: "No, go around the village."
"It's really time to go around the village. You've been married for a few years now. I'm afraid you haven't walked around the village as many times as you have gone back to your parents' home. I don't think there are elders in the village who don't know?" Aunt Wang continued to sneer.
Luo Jianjia is not easy to judge what the original owner is. She also knows that Aunt Wang is targeting the original owner and not her, and she will not stay here for long, so she doesn't respond much, and only responds: "Auntie taught me the right thing. ."
After he finished speaking, he was blessed and walked forward.
Aunt Wang was a little surprised when she saw that Luo Jianjia was not as arrogant as usual, and suddenly felt that what she had just said was a bit too much, and muttered: "What kind of demon is this?" After speaking, she went home.
Luo Jianjia walked around the village and received a lot of strange looks. Even if she didn't care much about these things, she was a little uncomfortable. Therefore, after looking at it hastily, he walked towards the entrance of the village.
She knew that when she left the entrance of the village, she walked eastward, about ten miles away, and passed three or four villages, namely Luojia Village, which was Luo Jianjia's natal home. She was very familiar with this road. After looking east for a while, Luo Jianjia walked in the opposite direction.
One is that he doesn't want to meet the Luo family, and the other is that he is too familiar with the place and can't think of any way to make money.
After passing a village, a wide and long river appeared in front of him. Although there are many small rivers in the south of the Yangtze River, but such a wide one has not been seen much, and most of them are trickles.
Standing by the river and taking a look, there are many boats in the river, and there seems to be a pier not far away, with a lot of people gathered. There are merchants who disembark, there are laborers who unload the goods, and there are merchants who sell things.
Luo Jianjia looked at the man who was unloading the goods, and then looked at her tender and magical hands, thinking in her heart, I wonder how much the unloading person can make a day, if she goes to the dock to unload the goods and deliver the goods, will she be able to make money or not? less money.
Even if the money is not much, it can always make her full, right
When I think of the fragrant rice, my stomach growls out of time.
Touching her empty stomach, Luo Jianjia walked firmly towards the pier.
