The Sweet Little Fulang - Chapter 209
The sky was getting hotter and the sun was getting brighter now, Lu Gu opened the back door and took off the threshold, because Shen Yaoqing first went to the entrance of Pearl Alley to put down Ji Qiuyue and Zhao’er, and then turned around the entrance of Nanji Street and entered from the back alley, just one step slower than his daughter-in-law. .
When he led the mule into the door, Lu Gu was shaking the reel and hoisting the well bucket from the well.
The day before yesterday, Shen Xuanqing brought a rabbit from the house and said that the eldest brother and the others were coming over the next few days. Lu Gu bought green plum wine and waited. He froze it in the well and wanted to drink better. He bought it yesterday and drank it with Shen Xuanqing. , I finally waited for someone to come today. Fortunately, he got up early and bought two more tubes.
Ji Qiuyue led Zhao’er over from the front, and when she saw the bamboo tube, she asked with a smile, “Is this wine or?”
“Qingmei brewing, it’s iced, it quenches thirst and heat, and it’s hot all the way.” Lu Gu put the well bucket on the ground, took a can from it and handed it to her.
When Zhao’er saw it, she stretched out her hand and asked her for it, but she dared not give this cold thing to the child.
“I want it.” Zhao’er was smart now and coaxed him that this was not edible, but he didn’t believe it.
“It’s alright, alright, I’ll pour some for you.” Ji Qiuyue was entangled by her son, and Zhao’er was too hot to ride this car, so she took her son to the kitchen and pretended to pour it in with a bowl, but in reality there were only two Drop, don’t say drink it, just take a sip to get a taste on your lips.
The sweet and sour green plums are the drink that the wife and husband drink, but after all, it has a very light taste of wine. She was afraid that it would not be good for the child to drink. She then mixed a large bowl of water, not afraid that the child would have a problem drinking it.
The child said it was good to coax or coax, she tricked Zhaoer into drinking water, and squatted beside her and asked, “Is it sweet?”
Zhao’er took a few sips with the bowl in her own hands. He was indeed thirsty. He didn’t have time to say anything when he heard the adults ask him. Qiuyue smiled and said in a milky voice, “Sweet.”
Ji Qiuyue took a bowl and took a sip. Most of it was water, and it didn’t taste at all, so she snickered and said, “It’s sweet, just go, go and find your father.”
Zhaoer remembered the road just now, and the good boy followed him to the backyard.
Shen Yaoqing was drinking green plum brew, he was really thirsty, a tube of cold green plum brew was very happy to drink, and he raised his head and gulped after a few times.
Lu Gu picked up the baggage and a large basket of vegetables from the scooter, and carried them to the front yard.
Seeing Zhao’er coming over, he smiled and said, “Do you remember little mama? Come, follow me to the front, there is a salty pastry cake to eat.”
I only met him last month. Zhao’er is no stranger to him, but after a while, he still has some life. But when he heard the cakes, the little feet who had gone to his father’s side turned to Lu Gu.
He led his nephew to the front yard, and Ji Qiuyue was also drinking green plum wine after crossing the passage. She was afraid that Zhao’er would ask her, so she sent to find Shen Yaoqing.
Lu Gu put the burden in the east wing, and when the bed was made, he stopped worrying and walked to the kitchen with a heavy vegetable basket.
“The long beans and hanging melons were picked by your mother, and the sweet buns were found by Yanyan up the mountain, so I brought them to you.” Ji Qiuyue quenched her thirst, wiped her mouth and smiled.
There are also cress and bamboo shoots in the bamboo basket. The crunchy wild cucumbers are afraid of being crushed. They are all placed on the top. There are five in total. The sweet buns are also on the top. Artemisia tip.
Every time I come here from home, I bring a lot of vegetables to eat. Sometimes the food grown at home tastes crisper and more delicious than the food from outsiders.
“I’ll try it.” Lu Gu went into the kitchen and put the big basket on the chopping board. He took the sweet buns and hadn’t eaten them yet. Zhao’er followed him all the way, and even reached out and grabbed his trousers and dragged them. .”
He couldn’t help laughing and said, “Wait a minute, little mama ate this and got it for you.”
When Ji Qiuyue saw that her son didn’t call anyone, she said, “Why, I don’t recognize it, this is your little mama, didn’t the mother tell you on the road? Let’s see mama and brother, have you forgotten?”
“Where’s Brother Ling?” Shen Yaoqing came in from the backyard and asked. He untied the mule cart and tied the mule to the other side of the barn, keeping it far away to avoid a fight with the mule bought by Shen Xuanqing.
Lu Gu swallowed the sweet fruit in his mouth and said, “Sleep, I’m in the room, I think I’m about to wake up, Er Qing is over there at the shop.”
The sweet-scented osmanthus cake was in the kitchen. He opened the oil-paper package and put the meringue cake on a plate. The sun was shining outside. He took the plate and walked to the main room: “Sister-in-law, sit under the eaves, the sun is hot outside.”
Needless to say, Zhao’er followed him when she saw the cake, a little greedy ghost.
After a few people sat down, Lu Gu brought the teapot to add tea and water, giving Ji Qiuyue and Shen Yaoqing a good rest. Although it was a mule cart, it was too hot to come here in the sun all the way, and people would definitely feel uncomfortable.
After sitting down, he watched Zhao’er nibble on the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, looked carefully and said, “Why did you get tanned?”
Ji Qiuyue complained a little: “Can it not be dark, run around all day, either I’m going to chase or my mother is watching, a wild boy, no matter how hot it is, it won’t stop.”
It’s not yet the summer of the three dog days, but the children are running around, and the adults follow them to chase them away. If they don’t, they will sweat all over, and the children will be in high spirits.
There are not many people in the village, and there are only a few figures going back and forth. They are not very worried about the kidnappers, but I can’t see the children worrying about it. There is a mountain behind the village.
“It’s still good, he can’t run, I can carry him wherever I want, it’s like now, people have legs.” Ji Qiuyue complained a few words, seeing Zhao’er eating all the corners of her mouth, took out a handkerchief to wipe it rub it.
“I’ve grown up.” Lu Gu said with a smile, and was about to tease Zhao’er when he heard Xiao Lingjun crying in the room, and quickly got up and went in.
Ji Qiuyue hadn’t seen her little nephew for a month, so she followed him into the room. Xiao Linger stopped crying after being picked up by Eminem, and opened her eyes to see Ji Qiuyue.
“Do you recognize Auntie?” Ji Qiuyue spoke to him.
Now Brother Ling will woo woo ah in response to the adults’ words, just woke up at this time, Ji Qiuyue is not very familiar to him, so there is no expression.
Lu Gu came out with Brother Ling and asked him to look at Zhao’er who was sitting on the chair, and said, “Look who is here, it’s my brother, and the uncle and auntie.”
Seeing his little nephew happy, Shen Yaoqing whistled twice to let Brother Ling look at him, stretched out his hand and said, “Come on, uncle hug.”
Ling Ge’er rubbed his eyes with his little hands, and immediately shrank into Lu Gu’s arms, his face buried on Lu Gu’s shoulders, as if avoiding him.
“I haven’t woken up yet, so I’ll let you hug me later.” Lu Gu smiled and took the child outside to urinate first.
After a while of talking and laughing, he got up and said, “I’ll call Erqing to come back, you can rest and wait for me to come back and cook.”
Ji Qiuyue ate two sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, wiped her mouth and said, “Why, let’s cook, just ask your elder brother to call.”
“Alright.” Lu Gu nodded, he originally wanted to buy a roast chicken by the way, but this is exactly what Shen Xuanqing told him, he didn’t go out, Shen Xuanqing would definitely buy it when he came back.
Their rabbit meat, chicken and duck can be said to be a common food now. I eat a lot of stewed chicken and stewed duck, so I want to change the taste. Vegetables will do.
Shen Yaoqing went out, Zhao’er wanted to follow, Ji Qiuyue called him to hold his son, it happened that she and Lu Gu were going to cook, and Liuye kid was troubled at home.
Now it’s not like before, I live in one place and see each other every day. Naturally, I have a lot to say. What Ji Qiuyue said was just some people and things in the village. She was washing vegetables and laughing. Lu Gu beat eggs for Zhaoer to make custard, listen Be serious.
Brother Xiaoling was sitting in the wooden cradle, nibbling half a steamed bun in his hand and eating it, but he was also well-behaved.
“The first matchmaker Wang showed one to Xiang, and said that it was from Wang Li Village, and the family was rich. When your eldest brother inquired, there were many brothers in that family, but several concubines did not get along. Even if the family was separated, there were several families apart The wall next door is full of scolding, and sometimes there are fights. Although the boy surnamed Wang is the youngest son, his parents have money, and he usually prefers the younger son, but the daughter-in-law and husband above are like that, how can you rest assured? Yan Yan passed by.”
Ji Qiuyue told him about Shen Yan’s marriage. A well-heeled man can be said to be a sweet treat in the countryside, but their family is not short of the betrothal money, and Shen Yan is careless. Feeling angry, he simply refused.
Shen Yaoqing said that the marriage was not good, Wei Lanxiang naturally listened to the eldest son, and Shen Yan didn’t have a father to inquire about her husband’s family, but it was not because the eldest brother was busy, and he could only rest assured when he found a good family.
After listening to it, Lu Gu said, “We went to the wife’s house before, and Er Qing also told her about this. I see what he meant and wanted her to help him inquire about it in the town. Is there any suitable one?”
Getting married is a major event in life, and Shen Xuanqing will naturally worry about his sister, but few village girls marry into the town.
“We can’t afford a big family, a small family will do, but we don’t dare to get a wealthy family. This is sometimes different before we get married and after we get married. If we are unlucky, after Yanyan gets married, maybe we will Live by looking at people’s faces.” Ji Qiuyue hurriedly instructed.
Lu Gu said with a smile, “It’s natural. Erqing mentioned it when he and his wife said it. Just find the right one.”
Ji Qiuyue was relieved, thinking about Shen Xuanqing’s stability, and she would definitely not mess up, so she smiled: “That is, let’s talk about it, it’s a joke, how can there be so many rich people in the world leaking to us assholes? in hand.”
The two were talking and laughing, and Shen Xuanqing came back. Although the family was incomplete, the yard was very lively.
As soon as Shen Yaoqing and Ji Qiuyue came, Shen Xuanqing felt relieved. After dinner, they drove the mule cart in the afternoon, took the good boy and went back to their hometown together, and went hunting in the mountains in the morning.
The good boy has learned to ride the scooter. Sometimes the mule starts running. It stands on the scooter and looks out. The hair is blown up, and it looks quite majestic.
As soon as they left, Shen Yaoqing was guarding the shop, Ji Qiuyue and Lu Gu were playing with the children in Pearl Lane, laughing and playing. No dog saw them, but there were many people, and they felt more at ease at night.
There are only Wei Lanxiang and Shen Yan left in my hometown. There is Li Laiqing in the field to pull the grass, and Chen Dongdong to mow the grass that the livestock eat. It is equivalent to having two long-term workers. The monthly salary is more than one yuan, and it is about one tael of silver a year, plus Li Laiqing’s two taels of silver and one hundred yuan of wages, but it is only in the early 30s, not a lot.
When Shen Yaoqing left, he brought a slaughtered big fat rabbit to the third uncle Shen Shunwang’s family. He told Ji Qiuyue that he would be away for six or seven days and wanted Shen Shunwang and Shen Yuping to help take care of the house.
