Holding a supermarket in his hand and wearing the era, the rough man is blessed and his wife is beautiful and sassy Chapter 3 3 The Fundamentals of Survival
Shen Jianfeng came to the home of the third uncle of the Shen family. In fact, the family knew that Shen Jianfeng would come to ask for the land when he got married yesterday.
Seeing him coming today, the Shen family was very unhappy. How precious is land now? The three acres of land in Shen Jianfeng's family is still good farmland.
"Xiao Feng, have you eaten yet? There are still steamed buns at home." The third uncle Shen Muchun said while blowing the ashes from his cigarette stick.
"Third uncle, I've eaten. I'm here to talk to you about the land. I have to go back to the team. Chen Miao is the only one left in the family who has to live."
Shen Muchun nodded, "That's right. We've been planting it for several years. Come on, I'll take you to see. Your uncle and the others cleared the land after last autumn."
"Xiao Feng, a lazy woman like Chen Miao can cultivate three acres of land? But don't waste the land." The old lady of the Shen family said dissatisfied.
"Third wife, let her plant three acres of land. I'll wait and see if she can come back next year." In fact, Shen Jianfeng really didn't know if he could come back. He said this because he was afraid that someone would bully Chen Miao.
Now the faces of the other Shen family members are not good-looking. With three more acres of land, they can earn three more yuan in income this year. But now there is no more.
"Xiao Feng, you have been away for so many years and we have taken care of the land. Are you going back now?" Wang Ying, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Shen family, asked with a face.
Shen Jianfeng knew that he would not be too happy. "Auntie, what are you talking about? We are a family, and you have worked very hard farming. You don't have to give me anything. Thank you for not letting the land go unused in the past few years. Several companies have looked for it. I want to cultivate my family's land, so if you give me money, this money is not as important as our family ties."
"Xiao Feng, I didn't mean that," Wang Ying said anxiously.
Shen Muchun had already stood up, "Okay, Xiaofeng, let's go take a look at the land. What you handed over to us will still be the same now."
"Okay, third uncle, you go first. I'll call Chen Miao when I go home and let her recognize the edge of the field. It won't be long before spring planting."
After Shen Jianfeng finished speaking, he left. Shen Muchun glared at the family members, "Please give me a break. I have been farming for three years, and even if I give less, I still have to pay three oceans."
"Dad, isn't that already our family's land?" Liu Cuilan, the second daughter-in-law, said softly.
The third daughter-in-law Zhao Yun and the fourth daughter-in-law Tang Chunmei also said, "Dad, yes."
"Shut up, everyone. There is no need to say anything like this in the future. This year we will go to open up wasteland."
Shen Muchun has absolute authority in the family. Even if the juniors below are dissatisfied, they dare not contradict him.
Shen Jianfeng returned home. It was quiet, and his heart was pounding. Could he have run away?
When I entered the house, I saw my daughter-in-law curled up on the kang, looking pitiful.
The earth's affairs today must be resolved and their hearts must be raised, but this will not work.
"Chen Miao, get up and follow me to the edge of the field."
Chen Miao opened her eyes and immediately sat up. She was so frightened that her heart beat much faster.
Shen Jianfeng had already found his coat, and Chen Miaoxin said that only a wealthy person could afford it, a mink coat.
Shen Jianfeng handed it to Chen Miao, "Put it on, I'll find a hat for you."
Chen Miao was a little flattered, "What, what you are wearing now is too much."
"It's cold outside, so dress up."
Chen Miao would not rebel in front of such a powerful person, so she put it on obediently.
These were men's clothes, but they were too big for her and the hem fell to the ground.
Shen Jianfeng found the hat and turned around to see it. He thought to himself that this girl was too thin, but she was not thin in that area.
"There's really no way to wear it." It was a little embarrassing.
"Then take it off. If you have time, change it to a smaller size and wear it in winter." Shen Jianfeng said and put the hat on Chen Miao's head. It was also very big and covered his eyes.
Shen Jianfeng had no choice but to put it in the cupboard again. "Let's go, hurry up and save yourself from the cold."
Chen Miao followed him out of the house, "Is there a big pickaxe?"
"Yes." Shen Jianfeng felt that his wife was not really stupid.
Chen Miao trotted after the man. Her short legs were really weak. Besides, her whole body was sore and she really didn't want to move.
Observing the surroundings, Chen Miao felt that this was the period before and after the Republic of China or liberation.
They are all low-rise adobe houses, and almost every house has no yard. It would be nice to have a fence surrounded by branches.
Their residence is outside the village. Not far away are mountains, which look quite big, and a river, which is still frozen and looks shiny.
Chen Miao thought she had been walking for a quarter of an hour when she saw an old man wearing a cotton hat in front of her.
"Third uncle."
"Um."
After Shen Jianfeng finished speaking, he looked back at Chen Miao, and she quickly called for someone.
"Xiao Miao, if you can't do it, just go to your house and find us. We can help you."
Chen Miao nodded, "I remember the third uncle."
After walking for about five minutes, the two people walking in front stopped.
Chen Miao lamented along the way that people nowadays are really diligent. I remember when I was a child, the land at home was left like this after the autumn harvest, and the rotary tiller would not turn it until spring. But it seems that there is no root growing here.
There are corn stalks on the ground, and there is no weeds or anything like that at the edge of the field.
"Xiaofeng, this is it. The old boundary stone is still here."
"Okay, the third uncle's place is really clean."
"If you don't have the ability, you have to work harder if you want to stay alive."
Chen Miao found two boundary stones, walked along the ground to the other end, and also found the boundary stone at the other end of the field. Okay, this is memorized.
In fact, she really wanted to ask who the two families next door were, but she really didn't want to talk to the one named Xiaofeng.
"Third uncle, I'm going back then."
Chen Miao still trotted behind. Looking at the man carrying a big pickaxe in front, he secretly pouted behind him, "How long are your legs?" My aunt was still running to catch up.
Returning to the crumbling house, Shen Jianfeng went to the woodshed next to him to grab firewood and sit down to light the fire.
Chen Miao stood aside politely, not knowing what he could do.
Shen Jianfeng looked at his wife who was stuck in the hall, was he so afraid of himself?
"I'll boil some water to drink, and then go to the county town to buy some oil, salt and food."
When Chen Miao heard that he was going to the county seat, she bit the bullet and said, "I want to go to the county seat too."
"What are you doing? What do you want? I'll bring it back to you."
Chen Miaoxin said, I can’t tell you if you want to go to the county seat to see where this place is and what era it is in, right?
"I just went to have a look. I haven't been to the county seat yet. And you said you still want to leave. It's hard for me to work three acres of land by myself. If my family has money, I would like to buy a little donkey." On the way back, I heard something.
I heard the braying of a donkey in someone's yard, and then I remembered.
Shen Jianfeng thought about it, and it was okay. He couldn't give her too much money, but he would be right to prepare more supplies for her.
"It will take an hour to go to the county seat. If you can't walk, just wait at home. I can go buy livestock and bring back some more food. Don't worry, if you marry me, I can support you."
