Chapter 31
Chapter 31 The first room is happy and the second room is angry
While the villagers were enjoying their meal, Su Jinxiu asked Li Zhaodi to find a place to sit as well.
"Mom, you are feeling heavy now, don't be tired.
Hurry, sit down and have something to eat."
Now that my mother is getting older and can no longer hide her, the family can be divided easily.
It's time to tell this matter, so as not to cause trouble with the second wife in the future.
After hearing this, the women in the village didn't understand anything.
He looked at Li Zhaodi with a bit of surprise.
"Hey, Zhao Di'er, are you pregnant?"
Li Zhaodi was a little embarrassed and nodded.
I mentioned this to the village lady, who was sincerely happy for Li Zhaodi.
Now is the time for spring plowing, and the villagers have left after finishing their meal.
The whole family was busy collecting and collecting for a long time, and they took a breather only after dark.
Su Jinxiu asked them to rest first and settle the accounts themselves.
During this time, apart from building a house, I also use it for household expenses.
There are still fifteen taels and four cents left, although it is quite a lot.
But there are so many mouths in the family, and there is still money for their medicine.
It's enough for two or three months.
Moreover, martial arts is no small feat.
She wanted to send Shang Wu to school so that she would have more money to spend in the future.
Su Jinxiu put the money away and glanced at the unconscious man.
I don’t know which of the two is unlucky and the other is homeless.
One, struggling to survive.
She blew out the lamp, turned around and walked out the door.
The man's eyelids trembled slightly.
She was going to go for a walk by the river, but she didn't call Su Shangwu.
He has been exhausted these past few days. Give him a rest.
As soon as I walked out of the courtyard, I saw a thin figure hiding there timidly.
Su Jinxiu was startled and then frowned.
"Yes, Peach Blossom?"
"Big sister, it's me!"
Su Taohua walked out in a few steps, hiding her hands behind her back and not daring to raise her head.
Su Jinxiu saw the barrel in Su Taohua's hand and understood what she was going to do.
"You want to go fishing?"
Su Taohua nodded and bit her lip.
"Can I follow big sister? I promise not to rob or cause trouble.
Mom said that the family is about to run out of food, and I haven’t eaten for a day..."
There was a lot of commotion in the house yesterday. First, my mother fought with the second uncle and the others.
Later, when we returned to the house, my mother and father quarreled again.
She was the one who suffered, not only being locked out.
She was really hungry without food.
I just want to go fishing with my eldest sister.
Su Jinxiu looked at Su Taohua, who was skinny and covered in injuries.
He sighed and took the bucket from her.
"I happen to be alone, please give me a companion later."
Su Taohua didn't expect Su Jinxiu to agree to take her fishing so readily, so she nodded quickly.
"Well, I listen to my eldest sister on everything."
The two arrived at the river, and Su Jinxiu went into the water listening to the sound of wild ducks.
He asked Su Taohua not to go into the water and just watch from the shore.
Su Taohua didn't dare not listen and stayed on the shore obediently, not daring to leave even half a step.
After a while, I saw Su Jinxiu coming back carrying a long string of fish.
Although Su Taohua also heard from her second aunt that her eldest sister can fish.
But she was still shocked when she saw her eldest sister catching so many fish for the first time.
"Sister, I'm afraid you've found a fish nest."
Su Jinxiu smiled and touched some snails on the shore.
Only when both buckets were full did he invite Su Taohua to go home together.
When the two arrived home, Su Jinxiu quickly lit a fire.
Pick up a fatty fish, disembowel it, fry it in hot oil until fragrant and add water.
When the fish soup boils and turns milky white, she has cooked the noodles.
Roll out the noodles and put them in the pot, and in the blink of an eye, a pot of delicious and tangy fish noodle soup is ready.
Add a handful of green onion and it will make people drool just by looking at it.
"Peach Blossom, come and sit."
Su Jinxiu served Su Taohua a large bowl of noodles and called her over.
Su Taohua swallowed her saliva and stood close to the wall.
"Sister, I can't eat so much..."
Su Jinxiu knew what she was going to say and kept a straight face.
"If you can't eat it and pour it out, you're not allowed to take it home."
She felt sorry for Taohua, but not for the other people in the third room.
What a pity it is to pour out such fragrant fish noodle soup?
Su Taohua didn't care about how hot it was, picked up the bowl and started eating.
"Slow down, there's still something in the pot."
Su Jinxiu filled another bowl of fish soup and set it aside to dry.
Li Zhaodi, who heard the commotion, came to the kitchen and saw Su Taohua devouring her food, and understood something.
"Eat peach blossoms slowly, you won't be afraid at my uncle's family.
Now that we don't live next to each other, if you are hungry in the future, just come.
If we don't tell your mother, she won't beat you if she doesn't know.
Hey, so is your mother.
You are so kind to others on weekdays, but you can’t get along with your own girl..."
On a cool night, a bowl of piping hot fish noodle soup is served.
Sweat broke out on Su Taohua's forehead, and her pale face became a little redder.
Even though her injuries never healed, she still spoke for Jiang Chunlan.
"My mother said that when she gave birth to me, she almost died during labor.
Because of me, she can no longer give birth to a brother for me.
This is my fault, and she deserves to be annoyed with me."
Su Taohua's face was full of guilt, and she had a maturity that was not befitting her age.
She finished the noodles and drank the soup completely.
Regardless of Su Jinxiu's obstruction, she put all the bowls away on the stove and then took the bucket home.
Su Jinxiu was worried and followed him all the way to the door.
After seeing her enter the house, she went home.
Li Zhaodi was drinking fish soup when she saw Su Jinxiu coming back and smiled and asked her to sit down.
"Let's drink some in Jinxiu, now we have a new house.
Don't work so hard. Mom will ask someone to find your husband's family some other time.
If you have a man to rely on, you won't be so tired in the future."
In Li Zhaodi's heart, men are the backbone.
No matter how capable a girl is, it is always safe for a girl's family to marry her.
Su Jinxiu told her several times that she felt it was good like this.
But it was useless, and she didn't want to continue arguing about this issue.
"Mom, there is such a big man in my house now.
It’s not suitable either, let’s wait until he wakes up first.”
She urged Li Zhaodi to finish the fish soup and take a rest while she started making fish balls.
The newly caught snails can be used as a side dish with wine tomorrow after spitting out the sediment.
————————————
Early in the morning, Su Afang kicked Su Dafu out of the house.
Her nose was bruised and her face was swollen, she put her hands on her hips and cursed.
"I tell you Su Dafu, if you don't go to the big house to ask for money, I will make peace with you."
Su Dafu's originally honest face was now more and more wrinkled into a rag.
"The family is divided, how can I get it? You asked me to rob it."
He knew that he couldn't defeat Su Afang, and there was nothing he could do about Su Afang.
I could only carry the hoe and go to the fields.
Su Afang was so angry that she jumped and beat her in the yard.
This movement woke up Jiang Chunlan in the room.
Jiang Chunlan put on her clothes and went out, looking at Su Afang.
"Second sister-in-law is not happy, so don't take it out on our family. Go find Su Jinxiu if you can!"
The two of them had a bad fight this time and had two fights.
His body was covered with injuries, so he could only talk about it.
"Hmph, you two-faced fox know how to scheme.
Who is more capable than you? You deserve it if you keep scheming and scheming until you lose your house.
People live in new houses, but you live in rotten houses.
If it rains for a few days, your family will be crushed to death."
