In the hot summer, the vegetable garden is the busiest in the morning.
Because this is the coolest time of the day, most farmers choose to go out to work at this time. When the sun gets hot, they have to pack up and go home to escape the heat.
The Su family also likes cats to go to the vegetable garden at this time, loosen the soil and pull out weeds, sit on the edge of the vegetable field for a while, and chat with the people around them.
Old man Su looked at the newly grown vegetable seedlings in the vegetable field. They had already grown several new leaves and were growing well.
The old man sighed with relief on his face, "We planted seedlings a little late in the spring this year and missed the trip. If we planted them a little earlier, we could plant three or four crops throughout the year. In this way, even if we don't have rice or noodles at home, we can still eat vegetables." At least I can get through it without starving to death."
"It's not bad this year. We'll have food to eat for at least half the year. Unlike in previous years, when I eat one meal a day, I'm afraid I'll eat too much, and I'm afraid I won't make it through the end of the year." Wang Chuan chatted in the front vegetable garden.
They, the old residents of Tubeishan, all know in their hearts that the Su family is not short of food, at least not just vegetables.
Many of them had seen Master Duandao bring rice and noodles to the Su family.
When the brother of the Su family said that, it was more because he felt sorry for them.
Having seen so many human relationships, they know what is good and what is good.
Li Xiaoxiao straightened up on the other side, holding a hoe and sighed, "Uncle Su, I don't know, it was really difficult before. Those of us who stayed in Tubei Mountain would rather die than work as tenant farmers and have our wives plotted against others." My son, I don’t have any other skills. I can’t plow the land and plant crops. When I’m most hungry, I even grab mud and chew it.”
"No, those big forces chopped down and burned everything that grew on the mountain, not even leaving wild vegetables or tree bark for us. Looking back now, I really don't know how we survived that time. Compared to that time, Now that we can open a garden and grow vegetables for food, it’s so beautiful.”
"When spring comes next year, we will grow the vegetable seedlings early and we will be able to plant four crops. Things will get better and better."
"Yes, it will get better and better!"
There was laughter in the vegetable garden.
The early morning sunlight gently hit these people's faces, illuminating their eyes and dispelling the darkness and gloom lingering in their eyes.
In the past, they never dared to think about living a normal life, it was all a luxury.
It was after the Da Su family came that everything suddenly changed.
They are stained with light.
Today, Tubei Mountain is the only place in the entire penal colony that has been reclaimed.
Not only that, there are also experts here who will protect them, including two powerful figures, Master Duandao and Du Lao.
Their hearts, which had been beaten to death by reality, began to rekindle little by little.
Hope is like a seed that fell to the ground. Even after a long and cold winter, when spring comes, as long as there is sunshine and rain, it can break through the ground and sprout.
Mrs. Su and her daughter and daughter-in-law were squatting in the ridges, with smiles on their faces.
Su Da and Su Er were clearing land for Du Lao on the other side. He raised his head and wiped the sweat from his forehead while joking with a bright smile. "When we were sentenced to exile, we were also desperate. When we got to the foot of Tubei Mountain, we looked around and saw the bare mountains everywhere. I was even more desperate. At that time, I was still thinking that this was no place for people to stay. Hey, in the end, I just stayed! What is the saying? There is no end to the road——"
"It's from the Su family! Something's wrong with the Su family! Someone is coming to your house again, so many people!" A woman's anxious cry suddenly came from the front yard, interrupting the laughter in the vegetable garden.
Su family, "..."
There is no end to the rush of things happening every day.
Putting down their work, the family had no choice but to go to the door of their house again to wait and see if they were friends or foes.
The door of Su's courtyard opened, and the person from that side arrived just in time, and stopped more than ten meters away from Su's house.
The leader was an old lady over sixty years old, supported by women on both sides, followed by a large group of people, both men and women.
Everyone looked at the Su family angrily.
He Daxiang's sharp eyes saw Su Cheng and Xiao Lu standing in the crowd. What else didn't he understand? "Mom, dad, it's their family again!"
Mrs. Su and others also saw it, and their faces sank.
The other party came to attack with a fierce momentum, with the attitude of launching an army to accuse him, which was simply inexplicable.
"Are you from the Xiao Su family? You are such unfilial and disloyal people, and don't distinguish between superior and inferior! As a branch of the Su family, you just don't have respect for the main family, but you actually dare to be so cruel!"
The old lady was the first to speak out, glaring at her slack-lidded eyes with hatred in her eyes, "Do you think the Su family will be emboldened to do anything after being exiled? I tell you, the Su family is not dead yet! I am an old man today. I have specially invited the famous and promising elders of the Su family to punish you in accordance with the clan rules! Su Xiang! You rebellious person, take your evil wife and son and kneel down before me!"
After the old woman finished speaking, three old men with gray hair immediately walked out of the crowd. The clothes they wore were all tattered and slovenly. Their bodies were rickety and shaky. Their aura was hard to tell, but their facial expressions were quite impressive.
The rest of the Su family did not speak, but the glint in their eyes showed both schadenfreude and jealousy.
"Are they mentally ill? Have they been pinched by the door or kicked by a donkey? They come to the door to find trouble and you want us to kneel down?" Su Da was furious and said angrily, "Where did you come from? Go back! You think there are many people? Is that right? I’m telling you, if you make me angry, I don’t care about you, the King of Heaven, I will hit you!”
Su Er had a straightforward temper and a hot temper. He laughed angrily and said, "Damn it, you won't get any benefits from running into trouble at our house twice. Are you here to rob us because you are so anxious?"
Su Cheng was hit by stones when he came to the door, so that's not enough to call them "ruthless", right?
And when little Mr. Lu brought her child to the house, their family took care of her. They couldn't bear that the child was so hungry, and even gave her a piece of rice cake!
Is this the final result? Give their family a shit basin and bring a large army of troops to investigate? Do you want to force their family to work hard for the Su family? !
Your grandma’s daydream is so beautiful!
"Insolent! As a child of the Su family, you must abide by the rules of the Su family! Since ancient times, the main branch has been higher than the branches, and the younger ones have been the elders! Observance of etiquette, justice, integrity, filial piety, and loyalty are the principles of heaven! After your little Su family came to the exile, you will live in To be alone in a corner and watch the main branch suffer without paying attention is to be selfish and unfilial! Now you dare to be so arrogant in public, you are not afraid of people from all over the world poking your back!" One of the three old men relied on his status and seniority. He scolded, his eyes searched, and fell on old man Su, "Su Xiang, the rebellious son of the Su family! Why don't you come out and kneel down to admit your mistake!"
Old man Su stopped the eldest and second eldest brother who were clenching their fists, and then pulled his extremely angry wife behind him. He took a step forward with an unprecedented calm expression. He looked at the old lady opposite him and said, "You Su family has such a big formation." When Zhan Xun comes to your door, what else do you want besides asking me to bring the whole family to kneel down and admit their mistake? You guys tell me and I will think about it."
