MTL - Shanwa Small Rich Farmers-Chapter 819 picking berries
After taking a few glances at her grandson, the old lady began to complain to Wen Xu.
"You said that this old Taoist is really, what are you doing to let the children eat so much sangkham? Look at the clothes...".
One of the characteristics of the elderly is nagging. Wen Xu listened with a smile and did not refute. Anyway, the mother-in-law said that Wen Xu could not stop, eh, and agreed. There is no need to reason with the old lady. After clarifying the truth, the old mother-in-law probably doesn't want to see Wen Xu anymore.
While Shima was chatting with Wen Xu about the old way, Shishang really came back, and when he entered the yard, he heard his mother complain that the old way spoiled the child too much.
So she casually said something to her own mother: "You still have the nerve to talk about others, and see for yourself how much you spoil the three of them!"
"Since when did I spoil them? Now is the time when children are making trouble, so we have to be more tolerant. Besides, if a boy is not skinny, he will not look like a boy. He can't be a good boy and raise a little girl." Let’s…” the teacher said immediately.
There is always a reason for the old lady to be like this. It is only natural for her to spoil her grandson, and it is not considered a pet in her eyes, but she is not happy when others do it.
It might make her feel a little uncomfortable to be educated by the old way. From Wen Xu's point of view, the most likely thing is jealousy. The three grandchildren of my family are brought up by an outsider at such a young age. Understood, this made the old lady feel like she was an unqualified grandmother. If the old lady couldn't find a sense of existence, she would naturally look down on the old man.
Fortunately, the old lady is a person who cares about face, and will not make people look bad in front of her, so the old man still doesn't know that he is hated by the old lady. Besides, with a seasoned temperament, even if he knew it, he probably wouldn't take it to heart. In his eyes, it is estimated that most people in this world are ordinary people.
"By the way, when will dad arrive?" Shi Shangzhen didn't want to argue with her mother about such a trivial matter, and she also knew that she couldn't figure it out with her mother, so she simply opened her mouth and changed the subject.
Wen Xu heard his daughter-in-law asking this, and immediately asked in surprise: "Dad is coming too?"
Shi Shangzhen turned his head to look at Wen Xu, and said in surprise, "Didn't I tell you why, Dad is going to Jiangnan to visit and study, and he plans to live in the village for a day and a night."
"When did you tell me?" Several black lines hung on Wen Xu's forehead.
Shi Shang really didn't care when he heard it, and said to Wen Xu: "Then you will know now, my father will come in a few days, what do you have to prepare, if you want to honor your father-in-law, you can Ready to go."
After speaking, Shi Shangzhen looked at his mother.
The teacher didn't look at her daughter, but looked at Wen Xu, the son-in-law, and said, "How can you talk to Da Xu, your child? You talk to your father-in-law, and he is still your father-in-law! Da Xu don't pay attention to her. It's been more than a week, and he won't stay here for long, and he doesn't know what to do as an official. It seems that he should have been thinking about retirement two years ago, and now it's good! Busy all year round, even There is no day for a serious rest!"
Wen Xu understands that the teacher's family is now at a time when they are out of favor. It seems that the teacher's father, who was not very good-looking at first, has started to provoke Liang. Sometimes Wen Xu thinks that these political families are really tiring. Dad's temperament is a little bit lighter, and now he can't climb up step by step. Although he has been promoted, the old man may not be very happy. But it’s okay not to do it. Not only is the life of the family on his back, but the future of the entire family. There is no choice whether he likes it or not.
Thinking of this, Wen Xu felt that her daughter-in-law was considered a half-grown high-ranking child, but she didn't get some quotas or notes on her side, so no one would believe her. Thinking of this, I can't help but want to laugh in my heart!
"If you want me to say, it would be good to let Daxu become an official, and save a long time to help others." The old lady muttered from her mouth after finishing speaking.
For the old lady, nephews and nephews are all outsiders, and they have nothing to do with her. She expects others to be false, and her own children are the ones who are serious and reliable. Now the old man is busy looking at the bed, the daughter and son-in-law, the most important thing is that the three darling grandsons of the family don’t get much light, which makes the old lady unhappy, and the political resources of the old man are not in their own bowl. Thinking about it, I feel a little bit uncomfortable.
Shi Shangzhen said with a smile: "Mom, don't say that in front of my grandpa!"
"I'm not stupid! Why do you say this in front of the old man?" the old lady said.
"Mom, it's not that you don't know me, but I can't do this job with my lazy temper! I can't serve people, I'm used to being lazy" Wen Wen said with a smile.
Teacher's mother glanced at Wen Wen: "If you do it, you can do it better than your father. You are smart, but your life is too comfortable, and you haven't been forced into that position...".
"Yo, you can praise your son-in-law!" Shi Shangzhen said jokingly.
After finishing speaking, she pouted at Wen Xu: "I said you made your mother-in-law boast like a flower, don't show it today? Hurry up and cook some special dishes!"
"Okay, no problem!" Wen Xu said with a smile.
"Oh, yes, Daxu!"
Seeing that Wen Xu was about to go out, the old lady immediately stopped Wen Xu: "By the way, your dad hasn't had a good rest these days, so get some dark honey."
"Mom, I understand, I'll go and cut fresh ones for Dad when he comes." Wen Nu nodded in agreement.
Seeing that the old lady had nothing else to do, Wen Xu went out to get a chicken, and started to take care of a fish. A chicken was steamed, the fish was braised in brown sauce, it was pouring rain outside, Wen Xu's family was sitting around the table lively, the authentic home-cooked dishes Wen Xu is now a thief, the old lady praised while eating I can't help but put food for my three grandchildren.
Almost finished packing up the food and packing up, the rain outside stopped, and the temperature in the whole Wenjia Village suddenly dropped to a cool 20 degrees. Wen Xu held on to the teapot with one hand, and at the same time slipped out of the yard with Dongliang and started to turn around.
Looking at other people playing chess and cards under the street lamps, sitting in a place where someone has a radio, listening to a play and compiling a storytelling, feels more comfortable than watching New York and Paris.
After wandering around for more than an hour, Wen Xu returned home, first put the child to sleep, and then hugged his wife to sleep happily until dawn.
After exercising in the morning, Wen Xu returned home, and was about to go out for a walk after eating, when she heard her old mother-in-law calling her to a halt.
"Daxu, is there anything going on today?" Teacher asked.
Wen Xu shook his head and said, "What can I do, where are you going?"
Wen Xu thought that the old lady was going to the county or somewhere and was planning to use a car, so she wanted to give it to her.
"No, the child has been clamoring to eat sangkan all morning. If you're okay, go to the mountains to pick some, and don't pick an extra basket." The old lady said and handed over the small basket that she had prepared earlier. come over.
Wen Xu took the basket and was about to go out. Shi Shangzhen pricked up his ears and heard it, and immediately said: "Don't pick sangkan, pick something else, if there are sorrel eggs, pick some back!"
"What's so delicious about that thing!" The old lady was a little unhappy, blaming her daughter for not fulfilling the wishes of her three little grandchildren.
"Sangkan is sweet, but you can't control whether you are full!" Shi Shangzhen is determined not to let the child eat sangkan again today.
After finishing speaking, she said to Wen Xu: "I told you not to pick it up, pick something else and come back!"
"Okay" Wen Xu glanced at his daughter-in-law, and then at the old mother-in-law. Seeing that the old mother-in-law didn't speak, she nodded and went out with her small basket.
Take Dongliang, recruit Erbai, and set off towards Lao Linzi.
When he entered the old forest, Wen Xu met children from the village. They were either leading dogs or horses. Needless to say, they went into the mountains to pick wild fruits. A group of children got together and it was very lively. of. But Wen Xu couldn't compete with the children, so he simply went to the woods, and went deeper into the woods to pick them.
The so-called mountain plow eggs are really hard to find. This thing is a bit small like a small cherry, but the color is not red, but brown, like the brown pears in the country, or else it won’t What is it called sorbet egg?
Sorbet eggs are only as big as soybeans, and they come out in clusters. These things are generally not needed by those who harvest mountain products, but Tu Fangzi is very effective in treating stomach swelling.
Sometimes this thing is so strange, you can see some from time to time when you don't want to look for it, but when you make up your mind to look for it, you just can't find it. I didn't see a single one, but I met many wild mulberry trees. Of course, I didn't miss any of them. Wen Xu also picked some mulberry trees and put them in the space for preservation.
Walking along the mountainside for a while, Wen Xu saw a small open space, the fiery red dots on the ground were very beautiful, and when he took a closer look, Wen Xu was immediately delighted, and he encountered the thorn fruit without any objection.
This kind of fruit is a bit like wolfberry, which is also grown on the shrub. You can tell that there are thorns on the bush when you hear the name. The fruit is not big. It is smaller than cherry and bigger than wolfberry. It tastes sweet, but it is not It's too sweet, and there is a small core in the middle of the fruit. The fruit is sweet, but if the core is bitten, it will be bitter. People who can eat it are generally very careful, and they will not chew until the small core is knocked out.
Picked one and put it in his mouth, Wen Xu chewed it a few times and found that it still tasted like when he was a child, so he picked it up with his hands. After picking about two or three catties, Wen Xu put his hand away and continued to look for the mountain along the mountainside Plow eggs.
In the end, Wen Xu finally found one. The fruit was so-so, and it was only about two catties if you picked it off, but it was so ripe that it was quite transparent, and the dark brown skin revealed light yellow. Color is coming.
I picked one and put it in my mouth, it was slightly sour, and when I put such a small fruit in my mouth, the saliva in my mouth immediately came out.
Shaking his head, Wen Xu took his hand out of the basket, put down the sorbet egg in his hand, and was about to call Yu Erbai and Dong Liang to turn back, when suddenly he heard a gunshot from the forest ring.
Wen Xu couldn't help wondering, so he took Dong Liang, rode on Erbai, and walked towards the direction of the gunshot.
