Old Man Dong came back from the backyard soon, and Mrs. Dong pulled him and murmured for a while. Looking at Old Man Dong's relaxed eyebrows, you knew that he was still satisfied with the marriage.
Although it was a bit eager to get married after the autumn harvest, they followed the etiquette and were not ashamed.
"Look at the arrangements, the dowry has to be prepared." Mr. Dong was very satisfied. After nodding, he motioned to Mrs. Dong to help the second room prepare the dowry.
Although the Liao family didn't tell the truth, the most basic betrothal gifts in the village should be provided nowadays, otherwise the Liao family would also be the ones to lose.
Therefore, Old Man Dong is not worried. Mrs. Liu said that at the end of August, the Liao family will come to recruit people.
When a girl gets married, she has to open a few cabinets, but she has to prepare them early, otherwise she won't be able to open them.
Mrs. Dong naturally said yes one after another.
After talking about the main business, Mrs. Dong thought of other things.
"By the way, there is a big market tomorrow, and the work in the fields is almost done. It doesn't matter if there are two less people tomorrow. Why don't you take Brother Xing to go to the big market and put the fish baskets that Nuanya made with the baskets?
Sell them, now that the river is in full swing and there are plenty of fish and shrimps, maybe the fish baskets will sell well." Mrs. Dong thought about the things in the woodshed, and felt itchy in her heart.
The main reason is that buying a dowry requires money, and she can't make up for it from other places.
When Old Man Dong thought that there really wasn't much work in the fields, and missing two people wouldn't have any impact, he nodded and said, "Yeah."
In the warm evening of winter, I teach Dongmiao to read as usual.
Dongmiao is now obviously tired of studying, but she is still holding on.
Once this kind of emotion breaks out, I will probably hate reading to death.
Dong Nuan noticed it, but she didn’t remind him and still taught according to her own method.
Even if someone saw something wrong afterwards, Dong Nuan would still have something to explain. He had never taught anyone, so how could he know how the master taught?
Even with Liao Xiucai as a reference, can raising a sheep and herding a flock of sheep be the same thing?
The warmth of winter is nothing to fear.
Because it was not easy to go directly to Hanjianglou's house to sleep, so after teaching Dong Miao, Dong Nuan went to Hanjianglou's house and directly brought the sheep back.
"Nuanya, why did you bring the sheep back?" Mrs. Dong happened to go to the yard to pour water. When she saw the sheep, she was stunned for a moment.
Regarding this, Dong Nuan told the truth: "The eldest brother of the Han family went to the county town to do some work and won't be able to come back for two or three days. If no one feeds the sheep, they will starve. Maybe someone will steal them at night, so let me help."
Bring it back and feed it."
After saying that, Dong Nuan went to find the bran skin that feeds chickens at home and prepared to feed the sheep.
We had already fed grass at Hanjianglou's house just now, now we just need to add some food.
Mrs. Dong's mouth moved, and she was about to say, don't waste the food at home, go to Han's house and find some to feed.
As a result, before she could say anything, she heard Dong Nuan say, "By the way, grandma, give me a basin and I'll express the milk."
Mrs. Dong:.
The words were choked back and I couldn't say even a single word.
Although goat's milk doesn't taste good, it's a good thing, so drink it hard. If it doesn't work, just drink it!
Mrs. Dong quickly ordered Dong Ya to deliver the pots.
"Sister Nuan, is this milk easy to squeeze?" Dong Ya came over curiously, fearing that she would be pushed by the sheep, so she stood far away.
Dong Nuan walked a few steps over, took the basin over, and said with a smile: "It's not easy to squeeze in. If you're not careful, you can easily get pushed. You might get a puncture in your intestines and stomach."
Upon hearing this, Dongya screamed in fright and ran away.
Dong Nuan didn't smile. For children, milking goats is still a dangerous thing, so this is not a lie to scare the children.
Mrs. Dong naturally knew about it, so she didn’t interrupt much.
The aunt is coaxing Dong Miao.
Dongmiao finally couldn't stand it anymore and didn't want to learn anymore.
She lay on the bed and cried again. No matter what her aunt tried to persuade her, she just didn't want to learn.
"I don't care anymore, I won't study anymore, I won't study anymore, ugh..." After studying for several days, I can only speak a few sentences, but it's not embarrassing enough to say it out loud.
Dong Miao really couldn't stand it anymore.
Seeing her like this, the eldest uncle was so angry that she beat the bed: "You, you, you, you are going to make me mad! No other girl in this family has this kind of treatment. If you are not happy to be able to study, I will beat you to death."
!”
The auntie was really angry. She raised her hand and started beating her.
However, she didn't dare to hit her too hard. Dong Miao's legs haven't healed yet and she can't go to the ground yet.
After the uncle's wife was beaten a few times, the mother-in-law hugged each other and cried again.
After hearing this, Mrs. Dong felt bursts of sadness.
However, after listening to this, Old Man Dong seemed thoughtful, and originally wanted to wave his hand to indicate that Dong Nuan was over.
As a result, I saw Dong Nuan milking the goat.
The old man didn't know or understand this kind of thing, so he couldn't disturb him.
Dong Nuan squeezed a large basin full of goat milk, carried it home safely, and handed it to Mrs. Dong.
As for how to eat?
Then it won’t be under the control of winter heating.
"You little debt collectors, come and drink milk!" Mrs. Dong was originally reluctant to give it to the girls at home, but looking at such a big pot, she thought about it and let it go.
Dongchang and the others, who had been tortured by goat milk before, heard this sound and ran away in fear, fearing that if they ran too slow, they would be force-fed by Mrs. Dong again.
Dong Yao also wanted to run away, but was held back by Dong Wu: "Yao Bao, be obedient. Your sister said this stuff nourishes people. Drink more. It won't be worse than the medicine. Hold your nose and go down."
Already."
While Mrs. Dong Wu was talking, she had already gone to get a bowl and begged for it from Mrs. Dong.
Dong Yao:……
Sister, please save me, my mother-in-law may want to kill me!
Dong Yao wanted to run away, but Dong Wu's backhand locked him in the west room and wouldn't let him go out at all.
Dong Yao didn't even think about it, so he was about to climb over the window, but as soon as he rushed to the front window, he saw old man Dong enjoying the coolness under the window.
Dong Yao:.
It's so hard for me!
Dong Yao quickly got off the kang and tried to climb through the back window, but failed.
Because Uncle Dong was sitting by the back window, and when he saw Dong Yao, he snatched him back and said with a smile: "Brother Yao, it's not good to climb up the window. Your grandma is asking you to drink milk."
Dong Yao:..
How about you give me a good time?
After being captured, Dong Yao was quickly tricked and coaxed by Dong Wu into feeding him a bowl of unprocessed goat milk.
The smell was so bad that Dong Yao almost died on the spot.
In the end, she lay completely motionless on the kang, completely autistic, which even shocked Mrs. Dongwu.
"Yao Bao, don't scare grandma." Dong Wu shook her head and almost made Dong Yao vomit.
Dong Nuan listened to the commotion, washed his hands and walked over here. As soon as old man Dong left, Dong Nuan occupied the seat in front of the window.
Seeing Dong Yao lying on the bed pretending to be dead, Dong Nuan smiled and said, "Oh, why are there big apricots here?"
Upon hearing this, Dong Yao jumped up and asked in an urgent voice: "Where is it? Where is it?"
