After the beating, Mrs. Qin was put on her pants by her youngest daughter-in-law and helped back.
After she was out of everyone's sight, Ms. Qin started to cry sadly: She was spanked at such a young age, so embarrassing for her ancestors!
Thinking of the pain from the bamboo splinters on her legs, she felt frightened, but also felt a little lucky: Fortunately, those men weren't around when she was beaten, otherwise she wouldn't have survived.
The bloodstains on her legs hurt so much that Mrs. Qin couldn't sit or stand, so she could only vent her anger on her daughter-in-law: "I know I stand like a dead person, why don't you get me a cold handkerchief and apply it."
The younger daughter-in-law soaked her legs with spring water and applied them to her legs. She would be scolded if she was too light or too heavy.
Next to him, his son Xu Genqing was sitting on a wooden pier in a daze, and his heart was in turmoil.
His own mother was beaten in public, and he, as a son, must be embarrassed.
But...the things my mother did were true, and she only received a few blows. I wanted to make a fuss with Mrs. Jiang but I couldn't even bring it up, and I was too embarrassed to even mention it.
At this time, when he heard that his mother was still quarreling with his wife, the unknown anger in his heart suddenly rose: "That's enough, isn't it just a Sanmi movie? It doesn't hurt your muscles and bones, you can shout whatever you want, it's embarrassing."
Qin was stunned and howled even louder!
Jiang Zhi started her pro-people activities after beating someone.
The first one is Tian Gui.
In the first month of the year, Tian Gui said that his wife was pregnant. Now Tao'er Niang's belly is big. Although she is thin, she still looks good overall. Obviously, the whole family is giving her food and clothing.
Although the other three children were poorly dressed, they were in good spirits.
His face showed the shyness of a country boy, without any fear or timidity. It was obvious that he was having a great time here.
With so many people, the shack became a little crowded. The beds for several children were on the ground covered with straw mats, without even a place to stay.
Tian Gui was a little embarrassed: "Village Chief, the three children slept on the ground because they were warm. The grass on the ground is thick and not cold, but it's just a bit messy."
Jiang Zhi did not lecture on what to do, but said slowly: "Parents love their children, and everyone wants the best for their children. The difficulties are only temporary, and they will get better soon!"
A good life still requires their own efforts. As long as they have food and money, they can slowly improve their conditions and buy more things.
Seeing that the village chief could say such thoughtful words, Taoer Niang wiped away her tears and said, "Thanks to the village chief, we are much better here than before.
If you have a place to live, land to grow, and vegetable soup, you will always be full.
After waiting for a while, Tao'er's father said that he would build another shed so that the three children would have beds to sleep on. "
She noticed that Jiang Zhi had been looking at the short clothes worn by the children, and added: "Now the income of the family is only enough for everyone to eat, but the children are growing fast, and they can no longer take care of the clothes.
We can only wait until the weather gets cold to buy new ones for Tian Tao, and then mend the clothes for the second and third children to wear. "
Jiang Zhi nodded. Farm children are like this. The eldest child wears the second child's clothes, while the younger children can only pick up old clothes.
As long as you eat well and don't harm your body, it doesn't matter how well you dress.
She looked at Tao'er Niang's belly again: "When will you give birth? Are you ready to undress?"
Tian Gui said from the side: "The baby is born in September, we can prepare it!"
There are still more than three months, enough time.
Jiang Zhi thought of something, looked at the three children, and said to Tian Gui: "Do you want to raise rabbits and chickens?
When the children are looking for medicinal herbs, they pick up rabbit grass. When they grow up, they can eat rabbit meat and exchange it for money!
Chickens can also eat meat and lay eggs!
It depends on what is convenient for you to raise at home. Chickens are as easy to raise as rabbits. "
There are dozens of rabbits in Xiaoman's family. Now that the food in the mountains is no longer tight, some can be given to the villagers to raise.
And chicks.
This year the hens on the mountain are nesting one after another.
The first batch of twenty chicks hatched. They have been hatched for more than a month now, and the tips of their wings have just reached their buttocks. They run all over the mountains and fields with their long legs every day, or they peck at the wheat piles. Qiaoyun is so tired that she chases them away several times a day.
The second brood of hens also hatched for ten days, and soon another chick hatched.
You can first raise chickens and rabbits to the villagers, and then collect the cost at the end of the year.
The first one was given to Tian Gui. He followed him and was bullied, so he always had to give him some sweetness.
When Tian Gui heard that he could raise rabbits and chickens, he immediately said excitedly: "Yes, yes, I also want to save some money to go to the town to buy chicken seedlings and raise them. Tao'er's mother knew how to raise chickens before!"
Tao Erniang nodded repeatedly: "Yes, I used to take care of the chickens at home. Cleaning the chicken pens will not cause chicken plague."
Next to them, the Tian Tao siblings hurriedly asked: "Village chief, can we still raise rabbits? The three of us know where there is rabbit grass, and we will definitely be able to raise rabbits. We used to dig earthworms to feed the chickens, and we would lay eggs every day."
The three siblings used to be in their hometown. Not only did they have to weed pigs and cut green compost for the family, but they also had to dig up earthworms and bring them home to raise chickens, because if the chickens didn't lay eggs, my mother would be scolded by several aunts and grandmothers.
Jiang Zhi nodded and agreed: "Okay, you guys will build a rabbit circle first. It must be built with stones, otherwise the rabbits will dig holes and bite them.
Cover the top of the circle with a bamboo curtain so that rabbits can't jump out. When the circle is ready, I will send you rabbits. "
When Tian Gui saw that the children wanted to raise rabbits, he agreed: "I will take the time to build rabbits for them."
After leaving Tian Gui's house, Jiang Zhi visited a few more households. Everyone's situation was similar, and he also asked them about raising chickens and rabbits.
Although each family will still be willing to repay this kind of wealth delivered to their door in the future, it is just that some families choose chickens and some choose rabbits. Each family is different.
Everyone knows that "hunger and cold bring about robberies", and there is also a common saying among the people: There is no food in the trough, but pigs will be eaten.
In the past, we all ate green rice noodles, so there was no major conflict in growing vegetables in our respective fields.
But now you can sell medicinal herbs for money, so there are always those who are greedy.
The conditions for raising pigs are not enough. Raising chickens and rabbits is also a way. You can do something yourself without having to stare at other people's bowls.
Jiang Zhi waited until he had transferred the remaining dozen or so houses before returning to Xia Xiucai's house.
At this time, no one came to sell herbs, and the front of the shack was deserted.
Xia Xiucai sat on the stone pier and murmured to the sky. Next to him, six-year-old Xia Yuanduan was sitting upright and writing on a stone tablet.
A bald-headed writing brush, with clear water as ink and slate as paper, has an outline of the brush tip compared to the writing on the sand table.
Old children’s learning tools
As soon as Jiang Zhi arrived, Xia's mother and the scholar lady came out to welcome him. Although today's farce had nothing to do with them.
But the incident happened at his own home, and Xia Yuan handed over the slate again, making Xia's mother worried about how to settle down in Xujia Village in the future.
Now seeing Jiang Zhi, he apologized quickly: "It's because we didn't do a good job of collecting the herbs and caused trouble to the village chief."
Jiang Zhi comforted: "This has nothing to do with you, it's still how you collect it.
I came here to compliment your family Yuan'er. He writes beautifully and remembers the numbers well. You are a good teacher. "
Next to him, the scholar lady smiled, lowered her head and said nothing, only gently touching Xia Yuan's head.
After taking some newly harvested mint from Xia's house and returning to the mountain, Jiang Zhi told the story of spanking someone.
Xiao Mannai shook her head and said: "That Mr. Qin used to be a loyal person, how could he become like this after escaping danger once!"
She just said this without much doubt in her mind.
When encountering a disaster, people always change.
Just like Er Ruiniang becomes humble and Chunfeng becomes aggressive, that Qin family can naturally become a bad person.
