Chapter 77
"sister in law……"
Ergou leaned against the door and shouted softly.
"Ah, Ergou, why is it you?"
"Why, sister-in-law, don't you want Ergou to come?"
"No, didn't you go to Zhang Yan's house?" Wang Xiangmei let Ergou into the house while talking.
"Stop talking now, bring me something to eat. I'm starving." There was no longer any politeness between Ergou and Wang Xiangmei. As soon as they entered the room, Ergou shrunk his legs and got on the bed, sitting on the edge of the bed and shouting.
.
"What, you're still hungry? Didn't you meet your parents? You wouldn't be so pitiful and were kicked out, right?" Wang Xiangmei was surprised why Ergou left Zhang Yan so early and was still hungry. What happened?
"Sister-in-law, don't ask. Go get something to eat quickly. After lunch, I have to go to the village chief and ask him to help call people to pick peaches. I'll load a few cars and leave tomorrow."
"Okay then." Wang Xiangmei stopped asking. Although she was still very curious, she was too embarrassed to continue asking if Ergou didn't say anything.
Wang Xiangmei turned around and left the bedroom and walked into the kitchen. Wang Xiangmei's house consists of four connected rooms, a main room, two bedrooms on both sides of the main room, and a small kitchen hanging next to it.
The four houses are all connected. Because Wang Xiangmei was a woman at home and she was timid, she asked someone to connect all four rooms so that she could walk to any other room in the house.
The room that Wang Xiangmei lives in happens to be the one next to the kitchen. The main room and the bedroom on the other side are empty and useless. She is a woman, and she eats and sleeps in this bedroom. She prepares meals in the kitchen and brings them directly to her.
There is a small square table in the bedroom. People can sit on the bed to eat, or sit on a stool to eat, whichever they like.
"Er Gou, you still have some peanuts. Let me fry some eggs for you. I came back from town in a hurry and didn't buy much food." Wang Xiangmei came back from town with Er Gou today. She herself just came back from town.
I just fried some green vegetables for dinner. Now that Ergou is here, there are no other good dishes, only scrambled eggs.
"Okay, that's good." Ergou looked at the bottle of beer and half a bowl of peanuts that Wang Xiangmei brought out. His appetite suddenly whetted, and he quickly ran over to get two cups.
Wang Xiangmei knew that Ergou liked to drink beer, so she bought a few bottles and kept them there for Ergou. Whenever Ergou wanted to drink, she could take them out immediately.
The eggs were fried very quickly. After Ergou drank a glass of wine, Wang Xiangmei came out with a bowl of eggs.
"Come, sister-in-law, sit down and have a drink with me." Ergou sat on the bed and pointed to a stool opposite.
"Ergou, I don't know how to drink." Wang Xiangmei sat down but didn't touch the glass.
"It's okay. I'm at my own home, with my own man by my side. It's no big deal if I get drunk." After Ergou finished speaking, he picked up his cup and touched it on the cup in front of Wang Xiangmei, then drank it and pointed
The cup in front of Wang Xiangmei said: "Drink, it'll be fine."
"Well, then I'll drink a little."
"Well, just drink slowly and chat with your man."
"Ergou, what do you want to say?" Wang Xiangmei took a sip, put down her cup and asked.
"Sister-in-law, do you think my second dog is incompetent?"
"Er Gou, sister-in-law, you are not allowed to talk about yourself like this. How could you be so incompetent?" Xiangmei didn't know what was going on with Er Gou, why he suddenly said this.
"You said that Ergou, who is already twenty years old, is still living in a bare house. Not only does he have no good furniture, but his entire home is leaky and incompetent..." Ergou became more and more excited as he talked. He was originally on the way.
I had already thought about it, but after a few sips of wine, I suddenly felt emotional again.
"Er Gou, don't rush these things. You are still young. You will have everything in a few years." Wang Xiangmei hurriedly comforted her. She guessed that Er Gou must have been angry with Zhang Yan.
Dogs never say these words normally, but something seems wrong today.
"Er Gou, no matter what others say, my sister-in-law will never dislike you. She also believes that you will get better and better. Isn't this peach business doing very well? You can do it after making money.
I have other businesses, so it’s not easy to build a house.”
"Yes, sister-in-law is right. Ergou is the happiest to have a sister-in-law. Sister-in-law is the best woman for Ergou." While speaking, Ergou reached out and held Wang Xiangmei's hand.
While talking, they drank and ate. It was around three o'clock in the afternoon when the two dogs were finally full.
"Sister-in-law, I'm leaving. I'm going to the village chief's house to talk about picking." Ergou hugged Wang Xiangmei from behind, who was bending over to put away the dishes.
Wang Xiangmei turned around and kissed Ergou. "Well, you go ahead. Remember, don't think too much. You still have a sister-in-law. No matter what big things happen, she will never leave you."
"Thank you, sister-in-law." After saying this, Ergou nuzzled Wang Xiangmei hard on the lips, then let her go and turned around and walked out of the house.
When we arrived at the home of the village chief Zhou Bao, we found out that Zhou Bao had gone to the town for a meeting and left after lunch.
"Er Gou, if you have anything to do, tell your aunt. I'll talk to the old guy when he comes back." Xie Yinhua stood at the door of her main room wearing a large floral skirt.
"Aunt, it's not about the peach." Ergou did not enter Xie Yinhua's house. Uncle Sanbao was not at home, so it would be dangerous to enter.
"Isn't the peach thing settled?"
"I know this. I want to ask the village chief to help me run some errands. I will go to every house and ask if anyone is willing to help pick peaches. I can pay an extra ten cents per catty." Ergou originally planned to add more.
It was two cents per pound, but the mayor took away a dime, so now you can only count 10 cents for picking peaches. But it’s not bad to get a dime for picking a pound of peaches. One person can pick at least several hundred kilograms of peaches a day.
That's dozens of dollars.
"Oh, such a good thing, I don't have a peach tree at home, can you help me pick it?" Xie Yinhua asked.
"Okay, some people have too many peach trees, so they must have other people helping to pick them. These must be picked within a week."
"Okay, okay, I can make some money playing cards. Don't worry, Ergou. I will talk to the old guy about this when he comes back." Xie Yinhua is a woman with nothing to do. Apart from eating and sleeping every day, she just likes to go to other people's homes.
Go play cards. But she doesn’t really want to pick peaches for the money, she just wants to join in the fun.
