My 1995 Small Farm

   Chapter 183 Talk

   "Let me tell you, that's almost it. Qingwen went to see it before. My daughter is living a good life now. You have also seen the photos sent back two times."

Wang Cunye touched the cigarette stick, looked up at his mother-in-law, and said, "When you talk about you, you have to droop your face, you are not happy, and your son-in-law is also unhappy. This is the first time the girl returns to the door, don't go to the end, you mother-in-law. It's better if you can't fall, so that there are no people inside and out..."

   "Oh, I'm not human inside and out? Who picked the son-in-law?"

When Gao Xiulan heard this, she became anxious: "Didn't you pick it up? Now I'm talking about me again. Before marriage, how good your husband was to him, my mother-in-law also treated him as her own son, and she ended up treating him as a daughter-in-law. Married, what has this kid become?"

   "If it wasn't for Qingwen asking someone to inquire, and the girl being bullied, we wouldn't know."

   It’s true that Wang Susu’s situation was actually inquired by his eldest son, Wang Qingwen, who asked his old classmates in Changle Township.

Wang Qingwen is a middle school teacher, and also has a good relationship with a classmate who teaches at a school in Changle Township. Seeing that his sister doesn't write much at home, he asks someone to go to Chenwangzhuang to ask questions. not good.

  At that time, after the old couple found out, they couldn't sleep all night, and finally gritted their teeth in hatred, and let the eldest son come to the door to make a scene.

   You can't do it without making trouble, the daughter is married far away, the maiden family is not tough, and the hard days are still to come.

   Now even this is the first time I come back home.

   You have to say a few words to him.

   There is no way to do this kind of thing, she has to be a bad person and lose her temper as a mother-in-law.

  The girl was wronged at her husband's house.

   Don't let your maiden family say a word?

  Wang Cunye also knew this truth. Hearing his mother-in-law say this, he would not say anything.

   After being silent for a while, he sighed softly: "Ah, Brother Juncai is a very good person, who knows that this baby in his family is not up to the standard..."

   "But Qingwen also said that this baby's temperament has begun to change now. Knowing how to take care of the family and being good to Susu, that's actually fine."

   said, looking at the eldest son: "Really, Qingwen?"

Wang Qingwen nodded hurriedly: "Yes, Dad, your vision is not bad, this kid is indeed capable, smart, and quick-witted. In the past, he was full of minds and didn't go to serious places. He was fooling around all day, and was spoiled by Uncle Juncai. Now this has not just been corrected, and within half a year, life will be better."

"Father, mother, didn't I tell you when I came back? When building a new house, many people from the village went to help, and the county and city also made friends, and they were all leaders in charge of things. , When I came back, Susu didn't say anything, he just asked Zhenzhen to stay, saying that it is convenient to go to school in the county, otherwise we will not start school in this town, and in the blink of an eye two or three months, the baby will be delayed. already."

   "You said, based on this alone, which son-in-law is comparable to us here?"

After he finished speaking, Su Ligai followed closely: "Father, mother, Awen and I are also from here, whether this family is doing well can be seen from the face, it can't be hidden, look at Susu. Now I'm fat and white, look at that face, she's younger and better-looking than when she was married, just like this, I can't say how much happiness Susu has, I'm sure she won't suffer anymore."

   "This son-in-law can correct his mistakes and take care of his family. We should be satisfied."

   "Oh, I know, I know..."

   "I heard what Qingwen said before, and I'm actually quite satisfied. Don't I just feel sorry for your sisters and want to put on airs and support your sisters?"

  The old lady wiped her tears and sighed again.

   "After all, they will live by themselves in the future. I'm afraid that if this **** changes back to his original state within two years, it will be your sisters who will suffer and suffer."

   "I can also see that this **** is a capable man. Even if he lacks discipline, he can't be praised all the time. If he beats him a lot, he won't go the wrong way in the future."

   Gao Xiulan babbled, and Wang Qingwen and his wife nodded in response.

  Wang Zhenzhen looked at these people, and then at his father, his eyes were rolling, suddenly he smiled thiefly, and ran outside the door and shouted.

   "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, mother said she doesn't really blame you, she's satisfied with you, but she wants to pretend to train you because she's afraid that you will be bad to sister in the future."

   Good guy.

   Can you say this too?

  The old lady never expected that her little daughter would come here suddenly, she was stunned when she heard it, her face changed, and her face turned red and hot all of a sudden.

   "I will make you a scourge..."

   "Have you been silent? You can."

   Gao Xiulan raised her palm and wanted to fight, but she was reluctant to fight, but she glared fiercely at the little daughter who ran back to the house triumphantly.

   This is the end, and the anger in my heart was completely vented by this little girl.

  This mad girl still fights less.

  Wang Qingwen saw that the old lady became angry, and Su Ligai and his wife tried to hold back their laughter.

   They didn't expect that, after persuading them to and fro, they didn't resist the little sister's innocent words.

   "Huh, who told you to ignore me, but I haven't come back for three months, so you don't miss me?"

   The little girl shook her head and sat on the threshold, fluttering her braids and muttering softly.

  Wang Cunye squinted at her with a cigarette stick in his mouth: "I miss you? Your mother wants to hit you."

   As he said this, Chen Ling and Wang Susu entered the room.

  Although Chen Ling heard the conversation in the house with Chen Ling's ear, he was also called out by his sister-in-law just now.

   But in the face of two old people, it is still a little awkward and uncomfortable.

   took Wang Susu's hand, walked to the second old man, and promised earnestly: "Father, mother, don't worry, no matter what happens in the future, I will never let Susu be wronged again..."

  Wang Cunye was also a son-in-law. Knowing that this kind of thing can't be too much, it's too late, so he hurriedly said: "It's okay, Lingzi, this sentence is enough."

"The previous ones are gone, let's not mention it. You have come back from such a long way. Let's talk about being happy. My mother and I have been waiting for you to go home for a long time. The house in the east is empty for you. The moon sweep is clean, and I will take you to see it later."

   As for Gao Xiulan on the side, she was actually not angry, but she still couldn't hold her face down, so she looked at her daughter and son-in-law and said nothing.

   Wang Zhenzhen saw it, and ran to the kitchen in the courtyard again, and came back with a broom.

   handed it to Gao Xiulan: "Mother, here it is."

   "What?"

   "Play with this."

"What?"

   "Hit your brother-in-law, if you are still angry with your brother-in-law, hit him with a broom."

The little girl had a serious face, then pointed to herself, then pointed to Wang Qingwen and Su Ligai: "If you can't move, there will be my brother and sister-in-law, and when the second brother and second sister-in-law come back, plus the two of them, We fight for you."

   "In the future, you and your father will be old and have no strength. We will discipline him for you."

   Gao Xiulan looked at her little daughter, her face could no longer be maintained, her face trembled, and she burst out laughing.

   Losing her dignity in front of her children and son-in-law, she couldn't get angry when she was angry, she pinched her little daughter's face, and said angrily, "It's just that you can fiddle with it, it seems you can do it, right?"

Wang Zhenzhen grinned and raised his head proudly: "We are all on the side of my sister, my brother-in-law will treat my sister badly in the future and make my sister angry, so many of us beat him together, let's see if he dares to bully him. people."

  Chen Ling couldn't help laughing when she heard it: "You are so powerful, only your sister will bully me in the future, how can I dare to make her angry again."

  Wang Susu was both amusing and moving.

  This girl, she always breaks the embarrassment between adults by laughing and laughing. There really is her.

   "You listen to her nonsense, she is ignorant, and my mother and I are spoiled."

  Wang Cunye stood up, dragged Chen Ling out, and said with a smile, "Come on, let's go get some wine, it's five o'clock, it's getting late, come back with me and have a drink with your brother."

"Hey."

  Chen Ling responded quickly and followed happily.

   I was also greatly relieved.

  Laozhang is actually a soft-hearted person, very benevolent and righteous.

  Chen Ling's father said that this old brother was right, and he was angry with him.

It's just that he is too honest and kind, he has no smooth mind, never plays tricks with others, always likes to read some old ideas, and says that others are unkind, I can't be unrighteous, and sometimes I would rather suffer myself than do my best. Help this to help that, pay attention to loyalty.

Now that I'm getting older, I went out the door and pointed to the various households in the stockade all the way to introduce Chen Ling, what kind of second uncle, old uncle, etc. I also asked Chen Ling not to come for two years, do you remember Wang Qingwen? Where is the home, I took him up and pointed it out to him.

  The two went around the stockade and came back after drinking.

   The old man and his mother-in-law lived in an old house many years ago. The main house is also a bluestone tile house, but it looks dilapidated after a long time. The kitchen is a firewood shed.

  The yard is a soil yard. It is padded with soil in a flat place and rolled very flat.

  There are two or three old trees in the courtyard, as well as chicken coops and pigsties.

   At this time, the little white cow was tied to the tree in the south. Wang Susu accompanied Gao Xiulan and her sister and sister-in-law, and unwrapped the package beside the tree.

"This is my baggage, this is my sister and brother-in-law's baggage, this white bag is filled with chickens and ducks, these two yellow bags are small wild boars, mother, look, I hit them twice, they are still humming humming..."

  Wang Zhenzhen led his little nephew to stand in front of him and pointed, and then patted the little wild boar in the yellow snakeskin bag. When the little wild boar struggled and screamed, he immediately showed off to Gao Xiulan with a smile.

"This is raised by my brother-in-law, such a small wild boar, no one in their village can feed them, only my brother-in-law can feed them. My brother-in-law is amazing, he can even raise a little rabbit without eyes, listen to Liu Ni'er. He'll feed the cat's milk to the bunnies, but others won't..."

   "Really, sister?"

  Wang Susu smiled and nodded, "Yes, your brother-in-law can support anything, he likes to toss with it since he was a child."

Gao Xiulan listened to the words of her two daughters, although she was satisfied that her son-in-law could bring so many things, but looking at the pile of things, she also felt distressed for her eldest daughter: "The road is difficult, why bring so many things? Trouble, I have everything to eat and wear at home, and I will prepare it all for you."

   "It's okay, mother, don't bother, my cattle are stable, and I can carry a lot of things."

Wang Susu squatted down and took out two pieces of clothes from the bag, "Mom, look, these are the clothes that I brought for you and Dad. A Ling specially asked a friend to buy them from the city. Your and Dad's birthdays are coming soon, so they are just right to wear. …”

  Two sets of clothes were bought by Chen Ling Tuoliang Hongyu, one is more festive and the other is more everyday, but no matter the fabric or style, you can see that it is not a cheap thing just by looking at it.

   Gao Xiulan glanced at it and couldn't help but wonder: "What are you buying clothes for? You have enough clothes at home, so why should you buy them from the city? It's a waste of money."

   Seeing her daughter take it in front of her, she touched the fabric and said, "This dress is really good, but it's too foreign. I can't wear it with your father."

   "Mother, the clothes you buy are what you wear. What is foreign or foreign? That's what A Ling and I have in mind. We won't come back for two years, so we just want to get close to you and your father."

  Wang Susu said it sincerely.

   But Gao Xiulan pouted and smiled, "Mother can see it, you will say good things for that bastard."

He turned his face and looked at his little daughter again, glaring at her: "You too, brother-in-law is long, brother-in-law is short, it's only three months, it's like a puppy, let your brother-in-law raise it, you don't know how to be with your parents when you get home. Stand aside and I'll help your brother-in-law speak."

   said, but he was sighing in his heart, this son-in-law is really good now, not to mention the eldest daughter, even the youngest daughter is also supported and fat, and all the things to go to school are covered, there is nothing to be picky about.

   At this moment, Chen Ling followed the old man into the courtyard with the wine.

  The old man came in and shouted, "Damn, go catch a chicken and kill it. I will have a few drinks with Lingzi, Qingwen, and the three of us in the evening."

   Gao Xiulan was about to get up in response, but Wang Susu hurriedly stopped her and said, "No, no, Dad, we brought chickens and ducks when we came, and I was just telling my mother about this..."

   "Ah? I also brought chickens and ducks, no wonder it's a big bag."

Wang Cunye stepped forward and took a look: "Don't bring so many things in the future, as long as you and Ling Zi often come back to see us, my mother and I will be happy, getting so many things will bring trouble, and the road will be difficult to walk. Bad weather is very dangerous, do you hear?"

  Chen Ling and Wang Susu looked at each other and nodded in agreement with a smile.

Seeing the young couple like this, Gao Xiulan also put down her air and said to her old man, "I forgot when I heard your call just now, your son-in-law is not only chickens and ducks, but also pigs. Well, it's a half-sized wild boar. , Really, his sister and brother-in-law are ready to raise them and bring you meat for you to eat."

  Wang Zhenzhen immediately raised his little hand and shouted: "Brother-in-law also said on the way that he will make more trips in the future, and bring all the remaining three little pigs to his parents."

   Then he flipped through the bag again and showed Dad other things.

   "Good guy, you did it..."

  Wang Cunye looked up at Chen Ling in astonishment. There were too many things here, including food, clothes, chickens, ducks, and wild boars, so he didn't know what to say for a while. But he really felt his son-in-law's intentions, and he was quite emotional.

   "Father, A Ling, don't stand still, pick two fat chickens and ducks and kill them, it's not too early."

  Wang Susu untied the snakeskin bag and released the chicken and duck.

  Chen Ling also released the little wild boar after hearing this, and the old man and uncle also came over to help.

   One is killing, and both are killing. This little wild boar has been raised for two months and weighs less than 50 pounds. It is the time when the meat is tender. The daughter’s first meal when she returns to her parents’ home after marriage, of course, it is better to be richer.

   At this time, no one said that meat is expensive. What I want today is to be happy, to eat and drink well, and to make my daughter live happily for a few days.

   "Lingzi is very capable. The yellow stripes on this pig have not faded away. It is indeed time to eat. You can really support it from a young age."

  Wang Cunye said with admiration when he saw two little wild boars struggling with their hooves and mouths tied.

  Wang Qingwen picked out a chicken and duck, "Yes, Dad, you don't know, Ling Zi is now a veterinarian in their township, and he has been interested in this since he was a child."

  The old man was very surprised when he heard it. It turns out that this son-in-law is really capable.

  The three men were talking and laughing, killing the chickens and ducks before killing the pigs.

  Wang Zhenzhen ran around with his little nephew and fed the dog with some minced meat and offal.

   They laughed and laughed happily.

  The adults were also very happy, talking and laughing, and the atmosphere soon became warm. This scene made Gao Xiulan rubbed her red eyes and sighed, saying that the family hadn't been so lively in a long time, so that they would have nothing to do in the future, so they would come back a few more times.

  Chen Ling and Wang Susu also responded.

   In the end, one little wild boar was kept, and several chickens and ducks were kept and put into the pen.

   When Wang Susu's second brother and second sister-in-law come back, I can make another meal.

   Slowly, after the sky was completely dark, the rich meat aroma also floated out.

  The "nine bowls" with local characteristics made by my mother-in-law.

  The nine bowls are three-boiled, three-steamed, and three-cold. The ingredients are different and the methods are similar.

  Most of the meat is chicken, duck, pig and mutton, as well as head and hooves, but cattle and donkeys are not on the table. Big animals are expensive and seldom eaten here.

   But today, Gao Xiulan's recipes are also very distinctive, including pork belly, steamed chicken with mushrooms, and roasted liver and lungs.

  Because the time is a little late, it is marinated and steamed. If there is not enough time, it will not taste good. Chen Ling asked his mother-in-law how to do it, and also got into the kitchen to help cook a few dishes.

   Gao Xiulan refused at first, how could a daughter-in-law let her son-in-law cook as soon as she returned home.

   As a result, Chen Ling tried to cook a dish, and she stopped saying anything, only to know that the eldest son and the two daughters did not lie, this son-in-law's cooking level is indeed high.

  The old man was also very satisfied, and he was full of praise from the bottom of his heart.

   Especially the pork belly and the large intestine, I don't know how to cook it, it's too fragrant.

   Eating such a delicious dish, drinking wine with enthusiasm, clinking glasses with Chen Ling again and again, the interest has never been higher.

  The adults are okay to say that Xiaotongtong is only four or five years old. He has never eaten such a delicious meal. He completely opened his stomach to eat. He nibbled two duck legs one after another, and took out a few pieces of oily pork belly.

   He was still holding the chopsticks and scrambled with Wang Zhenzhen to pick up the dishes, which shocked Gao Xiulan and Su Ligai's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

  The daughter has not returned for two years. At the dinner table, the two elders are very happy, especially after knowing that Wang Susu is two months pregnant, she is even more overjoyed, and her mother-in-law drank several glasses.
