Troubled times: Start practicing spiritual practice by taking care of your sister-in-law

Two days later, the waterproofing and smoke-proofing of the cellar was completed.

All that's left is to dig a tunnel from the Chen family to the Zhang He family. The two families are connected. Once chaos breaks out, whether it's rebels, bandits, or others, it will definitely be the Chen family that is watching.

It's noon.

Han Anniang also cooked similar meals and put them out together.

On the table, there are wild vegetables fried in lard, cornmeal buns, wheat rice, fermented glutinous rice, and a plate of soybeans to go with wine. Of course, meat is also indispensable.

The glutinous rice wine has no alcohol content and is sweet in the mouth. Han Anniang can also drink it.

Zhang He was very sensible and took the initiative to pour a drink for Chen Mo and Han Anniang.

Wow!

When the wine is put into the bowl, the sound is crisp, the color is clear and slightly yellow, and the rice tastes mellow.

As soon as Chen Mo took a sip of rice wine, a voice sounded outside the house: "Is Brother Mo here?"

"Brother Mo, it's Liu Shu." Zhang He stood up, took a look, and said without Han Anniang going to look.

"Ask him what's the matter." Chen Mo put down the wine bowl and whispered.

In fact, Chen Mo felt a little guilty about the Song family. If he hadn't killed Chen Hu, the Qinghe Gang might not have searched the village, which would have caused the Song family, alas...

Zhang He went out to chat with Liu Shu for a while, then walked in quickly and said, "Brother Mo, he said he had something to tell you. By the way, he also brought Song Min with him."

"Tell me?" Chen Mo blinked, picked up a soybean, ate it in his mouth, and said, "Let him in."

"Brother Mo lets you go in." Zhang He shouted out of the room.

Han Anniang put some vegetables into a bowl and was about to carry the bowl into the house. Chen Mo took her hand and asked her to sit down and said, "Sister-in-law, there is no need to do this in the future. You should sit down and listen."

"Okay."

In Fuze Village, no matter which house the men talk about, the women will take the initiative to enter the house and avoid getting involved. Chen Mo's small gesture today made Han Aniang feel a little happy inexplicably.

But what happened next made her unhappy.

Liu Shu led a little girl into the house.

"Brother Mo, Brother Shui, Madam Han." Liu Shu called people one by one. He nodded and bowed, then gently pulled his daughter and said, "Min'er, hurry up and call someone."

"Brother Mo, Brother Shui, Sister Han." The little girl Song Min raised her head, with a smile on her face, and shouted sweetly. When she saw the food on the table, especially the meat, her eyes couldn't help but shine, and her mouth There was saliva in his mouth, and he quickly lowered his head for fear of being discovered.

Chen Mo and Zhang He smiled and nodded, while Han Anniang stood up and walked over, squatting down in front of Song Min, pinching Song Min's soft little face: "Min'er is so good, haven't you eaten yet? .”

With that said, he pulled Song Min to the table, picked up a piece of pork with chopsticks, and handed it to Song Min.

What happened to the Song family made Han Aniang feel sympathy for her.

Song Min swallowed carefully, but did not pick it up. Instead, she looked back at Liu Shu.

"Why don't you thank this sister quickly?" Liu Shu said.

"Thank you, Sister Han." After Song Min took it, she didn't eat it first. Instead, she tore off half of it and handed it to Liu Shu: "Dad, you eat it."

Han Anniang was stunned.

When Liu Shu saw the three people's eyes glancing towards him, he smiled awkwardly and said, "Dad doesn't want to eat, so you can eat."

Song Min then started eating in small bites.

Chen Mo glanced at the two of them. Liu Shu and Song Min were both very clean, especially Song Min. The cotton-padded clothes on her body should be new, and her hair was still wet. She should have just washed it.

Chen Mo poured him half a bowl of glutinous rice wine and said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Thank you, Brother Mo." Liu Shu drank the glutinous rice from the bowl in one gulp, then smiled and said, "Brother Mo, what do you think of Min'er?"

Song Min looks about ten years old. At this age, her appearance is not open, and it seems that she has not had a full meal for a long time. She has been hungry for a long time and looks thin.

Chen Mo frowned: "If you have anything to say, just say it."

Liu Shu smiled and rubbed his hands. He first slapped Chen Mo with a rainbow fart and said that his future wife must be the daughter of a prince, general and minister. Then he said, "If Brother Mo doesn't mind, we can get married." , let Miner make a baby for you."

The words fell.

"Ahem." Zhang He was drinking the glutinous rice. Maybe he drank too much and choked on the glutinous rice. He covered his mouth and coughed several times.

If Song Min were not present and it was difficult to say it in front of the children, Zhang He would definitely say: "Where did you get the courage to say this and get married? Do you think you are worthy?"

Brother Mo is a true warrior who can even kill Chen Hu.

Even if you are looking for a young girl, if you can't find anything small, how can you fall in love with a girl from a small mountain village?

Even Han Anniang felt that the two of them were not worthy.

But her heart seemed to be grabbed by someone.

Especially Liu Shu's words, "Brother Mo's future wife must be the daughter of a prince, general and prime minister" made Han Aniang's heart feel empty.

After all, she is Chen Mo's sister-in-law, both legally and ethically, and she definitely cannot become his wife.

Even if she doesn't care about reputation, neither does Chen Mo, but she must care about Chen Mo's reputation.

Two people can be together, but they must not show it openly.

Song Min also stopped chewing the meat in her mouth, lowered her head and clutched the corner of her clothes, with a hint of shyness in her eyes.

Although she was only ten years old, the children of the poor had already become the master of the family. Moreover, there were many people who got married at the age of thirteen or fourteen. She also understood a little and knew what her father meant.

After hearing this, Chen Mo's mouth twitched. He was not a pedophile, nor did he have the idea of ​​​​playing with children. In his eyes, Song Min was just like a primary school student.

And when it comes to women, he is very realistic. He only likes young, beautiful and good-looking ladies, um... and a hint of a thief.

He really had no idea about Song Min.

Of course, he didn't refuse too directly. After all, the little girl was right in front of him, so as not to hurt his self-esteem.

Chen Mo said: "Are you kidding? She is still a child. Does she have a father like you? In addition, Uncle Song and your wife Yun Niang have only been away for a long time, and they have not passed the three-year filial piety period. You are bringing this up now?"

Chen Mo's eyes turned cold and he glared at Liu Shu.

Liu Shu shuddered, but didn't want to give up just yet, and said: "Brother Mo, you can let Min'er stay with you as a maid or something. Although she is young, she is very well-behaved. What? Everything can be done.”

As he spoke, he looked at Song Min.

Song Min saw Liu Shu's eyes and nodded quickly to Chen Mo: "Brother Mo, Min'er is very good and won't cause trouble for you."

Chen Mo smiled, took a cornmeal bun to Song Min, and said: "Brother Mo didn't say you were bad, it's just that you are still young. The most important thing now is to go back to your mother, grandpa and grandma to observe filial piety." , don’t think about anything else.”

His eyes moved to Liu Shu again: "I don't want to say it a second time."
