After Song Nanzhi arrived at the kitchen, he had no reason to let Dong Biyu light the fire. After replacing Dong Biyu, he sat on the small stool in the kitchen to light the fire.
Mo Ziyuan said it was delicious. Compared with the porridge that is eaten all year round, and the meals that take up more than half of whole grains, this meal is indeed very good. Although it is still boiled porridge, it can be seen in the bowl. There were rice with white flowers, a plate of beans fried with bacon, a plate of cold cucumbers, and a plate of pickles that the farmers could not do without. The soaked golden cowpeas were cut into small pieces and placed on the table. into a small bowl.
Farmers do not have the habit of eating without saying anything. Not only do they not talk about the arrangements for the next work during the meal, just like now, Dong Biyu said: "We don't know about my father-in-law's legs either." I'm hurt, I should have known to see you a long time ago."
Mo Tingyu did not sit at the table to eat with everyone. He was holding a bowl of rice in his hand. He was still sitting on a chair in the room with one leg raised on a small stool. There was another basket of corn in front of him. On the small stool, the basket was no longer there, and there was a bowl on it. In the bowl, Guo Minying had filled up the fried beans with bacon and some mixed cucumbers in advance.
After Dong Biyu's words, Mo Tingyu swallowed the food he was chewing and continued: "This is also a sudden thing. I know that you are very busy on weekdays, so I didn't say anything specifically about it."
Song Nanzhi also followed up and said: "No, although there are many of you, there are also many things at home. Qiu Yue is pregnant again, and the younger ones in the family cannot be separated."
Li Genshun has three sons and two daughters, the eldest son Li Changfeng, the second son Li Changyu, and the youngest son Li Changliang. Qiu Yue is the youngest son's wife. One of the two daughters is already married, one daughter is married to the Mo family, and the other daughter is also married.
Dong Biyu said: "We can't finish all the things at home, so it doesn't matter if we delay for a while. In-laws, please don't argue with us."
Then he continued to Song Nanzhi: "Normally I wouldn't say anything, and my father-in-law would take care of everything. But this time, you are not in good health to begin with, your father-in-law injured your leg again, and Wanwan is still young. You should call someone to tell us. If we hadn't happened to come here today, that crazy old woman might have run into the house and gone crazy, hurting my father-in-law's leg, or beating her wand. What to do?”
While cooking, Dong Biyu had already told Song Nanzhi about Feng's quarrel. Song Nanzhi naturally knew about the quarrel. At that time, he didn't have time to think about it, but after Dong Biyu said it, He got up, thought about the same reason, and said: "After I finish eating, I will go to Yougui's house again." Then he remembered something and said: "I have brought the firewood and pigs that I have carried from Dagang in the past few days. Give him back the grass, so that she won’t say every day that we took advantage of her, that we didn’t take advantage of her, and that she still makes a mess.”
After hearing this, Mo Tingyu agreed and said: "It's okay, just carry it and dump it in her yard. Not to mention a little firewood, weeds, even gold and silver. We don't care about it. But we can't carry more, just follow the big rules." Send the ones she carried on her back to her, so that everyone can see how much firewood and pigweed she is talking about!"
Li Changfeng said immediately: "I will carry it with my aunt." He was afraid that Song Nanzhi wouldn't be able to carry much, so he helped carry the firewood, pigs and grass, so that he could support her when she went.
After all, Mo Tingyu was afraid that Mrs. Feng would quarrel again after Song Nanzhi went to Li Yougui's house. He was worried that Song Nanzhi would be offended and that if Chang Feng followed him, he would be able to support his wife. He said, "It's okay. Dagang has been carrying firewood and pigs for five days." Damn it, so that your aunt won’t be able to carry enough for one trip alone.”
Mo Ziyuan also thought of Li Dagang when Song Nanzhi talked about it. His grandma made a quarrel with him, which made him extremely embarrassed and refused to speak up. As a result, the quarrel was not won, and in the end he was dragged and scolded back. , I guess he felt bad, otherwise he wouldn’t have run away right away!
It's a pity that Li Dagang has just started to change in my heart, but I will definitely not be able to have much contact with him in the future. For no other reason, his grandma is really annoying. It would be okay if I were older, but I am still young. At home, Grandma is not in good health, so it is better to do less than to do more.
After dinner, Song Nanzhi arrived in front of Li Yougui's house as she said, and first shouted: "Is Yougui at home?"
Besides, Mrs. Feng started scolding her when she got home, first she scolded the Mo family, and also scolded Mo Ziwan's grandpa's family. In addition, Li Yougui and Du Chunxia were also scolded for instigating Li Dagang to cut pig grass and collect firewood for the Mo family. They were scolding vigorously when suddenly Li Dagang yelled at Mrs. Feng. His roar shocked Mrs. Feng. The yelling stopped immediately.
"I only know how to scold you every day! Do you want the people in the village to stay away from me and avoid me like a god of plague?" Li Dagang yelled at Mrs. Feng.
Originally, he was doing well at Mo's house, but when grandma came, not only did he not learn to read from Wanwan, Wanwan would definitely not play with him in the future. Thinking of this, Li Dagang couldn't help but his eyes turned red, and his eyes were filled with tears.
They were unhappy when they went everywhere to play, but now they are still unhappy when they don’t go around to play!
Mrs. Feng saw Li Dagang yelling at her, and she felt even more unhappy. She shouted loudly: "I'm not doing it for your own good. It's not good to rest at home every day. I have to go and work for others. If you really want to work, in the future You do everything up and down in this house."
Li Dagang was different from his two elder sisters and younger sister. The three of them only dared to hide and endure without speaking when Feng yelled and cursed, but he dared to talk back. As soon as Feng finished shouting, he He yelled back, and immediately yelled again: "I am willing to work in other people's homes. It's none of your business. Who wants you to care about me!"
Li Dagang often talked back to Feng. If it was normal, Feng would definitely not care too much. After all, Li Dagang was her only one and her heartthrob. Don't yell, whenever Li Dagang is unhappy, she will rush forward to comfort him. Li Dagang can do whatever he wants!
But today was different. Feng was already angry outside, and in her heart, the reason for being angry was also because of Li Dagang, so she no longer coddled him as usual and followed him in everything. As soon as Li Dagang finished speaking, she continued: "Okay, if you are willing to work, then you will follow your parents and two sisters to work in the fields. If you can't finish the work, you will not want to eat." After saying that, he still felt that it was not enough, so he added: "I am in charge of this family, I don't care about you, who cares about you!"
Li Dagang frowned and replied, "Just go."
When Li Dagang said this, Li Yougui and Du Chunxia on the side were pleasantly surprised. Li Yougui stepped forward and said softly: "It's okay, you are old now, and it's time to do something with you. From tomorrow on, you will follow me to the fields to do the work in the fields." You should do something light first."
Li Dagang was still angry. Although Li Yougui didn't yell as loudly as Feng, Li Dagang still felt irritated in his heart. He acted as if he hadn't heard Li Yougui's words and walked to his house without paying attention. At that moment, the door slammed shut with a bang.
Listening to the loud noise, Mrs. Feng became even more angry. She pointed at Li Yougui and scolded him again: "Look at the good son you raised, he is going to overthrow the family!" Then she started crying aggrievedly again, "I Why is life so miserable? I can’t bear to eat or wear clothes. I have worked so hard to raise my son and grandson until they are big. When my wings are hard, I just leave my old lady aside and let others bully me. Oh my God, how can I raise such two useless people? What’s the point of living with filial piety!”
After Feng's old trick came out, Li Yougui was at his wits end. He walked up and shouted: "Mom, how could I let you be bullied!" After speaking, he continued to comfort: "Dagang is ignorant and only caused this. These troubles have come, but fortunately Mom called Dagang back, so we can take more care of him from now on, so that if he comes to the field with me every day, he won't have time to go out and cause trouble, and Mom will live a smoother life."
Li Yougui originally had an older brother, Li Youfu, but his brother failed to survive an illness when he was seventeen years old. After his brother left, he followed his mother's lead in everything so as not to make her mother sad. This obedience became a habit. In addition, his father fell ill again the year before. He took a lot of medicine, but it was still not cured. After some time, he also left, so he became more submissive to his mother, and her mother became more and more unreasonable. .
Feng didn't stop and continued to cry about her misery, "I was bullied, and you still licked your face to say nice things to others. Is this how you prevent me from being bullied? Are you trying to hold your mother's face up to this point?" Let others step on you in front of your home.”
"Then Li Changfeng, Li Changyu and the Mo family are just in-laws, and they all know how to support the Mo family. It would be better for you to lick your face and rush forward to humble yourself! Old man, you are rich, why did you leave? If you were here, I won’t be bullied by someone from another village.”
When Feng didn't shut up, Li Yougui had to continue to persuade his mother, listening to her mother cry, and just patiently comforted her while crying. In order to comfort Feng, Li Yougui forgot all his mistakes and pushed them on Li Dagang. Go, "Isn't it because Dagang is ignorant? Let my mother also suffer from it. I will definitely discipline Dagang well in the future."
"If you had disciplined him well, you would have prevented him from going to Mo's house." Feng said again.
At this time, Li Yougui just wanted his mother to stop crying, so he agreed, "Don't worry, mother, I will definitely keep an eye on him in the future and prevent him from going to Mo's house."
With Li Yougui's guarantee, Feng gradually stopped speaking. After yelling and making trouble for a long time, Feng was also hungry, but after her fuss, she would scold whoever she caught. According to the usual experience, no one went to cook. They were afraid that no matter what they did, she would not be satisfied. They just waited for her to make enough trouble. Du Chunxia cautiously stepped forward and asked her what she wanted to eat before going to the kitchen to cook. , but no matter how careful she was, she was still scolded by Mrs. Feng, "You stupid woman with no brains can't even teach the children she gave birth to, and she can't even cook a meal!" That’s all we have to eat at home, and you don’t know how to watch it cook! '
Fortunately, Du Chunxia had already prepared for the scolding, and was not too surprised when she heard her scolding. The meal was cooked a little late, so when Song Nanzhi came to the door, Mrs. Feng was still waiting for the meal to be ready.
After Li Yougui comforted his mother, he sat with him and listened to his mother's lecture. Now he heard Song Nanzhi shouting from outside and hurriedly responded: "Here he comes."
