The snake melons growing between the shelves of the shack built by Hu Zi's mother's family are growing surprisingly well!
Long, green snake gourds hang on the racks, like green snakes coiled around them.
If Song Yue had not seen a real big snake with her own eyes before, she would have been scared to death at this moment.
Fortunately, it was just a false alarm. Although these snake melons look like snakes, they are not real snakes after all.
Hu Zi's mother was all smiles. She enthusiastically picked five or six fresh snake melons from the shelf and handed them to Yue Niang, muttering:
"Mother Yue, take this back and try it. I grew it with great care!"
After saying this, he turned around and continued to carefully select other ripe snake melons, preparing to send them to Chunhua's mother's home later.
After expressing her gratitude, Song Yue carefully picked up the heavy bag of snake melons and slowly set out on her way home.
Along the way, she met many children. When the children who were afraid of snakes saw the snake melons she was holding, they thought they were real snakes and screamed and ran away.
Some of the braver children who were not afraid of snakes mustered up the courage to come forward and asked curiously:
"Auntie Song, what on earth is that in your hand? Is it a snake?"
Faced with the children's innocent questions, Song Yue always patiently and kindly answers their doubts one by one.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: Children are really full of strong curiosity!
After returning home, she was carrying snake gourds. When her two daughters-in-law saw it, they screamed, thinking that their mother-in-law was carrying a few snakes home.
After the mother-in-law patiently explained, Lin Fangfang and Qian Duoduo finally felt relieved. It turned out that they were eating snake melon, not snakes.
"Your Aunt Huzi said that you can peel the skin of this snake melon and stir-fry it, braise it, make soup, or chop it up to make dumplings or buns."
Song Yue didn't have any cooking skills, so she just repeated it.
Fortunately, Lin Fangfang is proficient in cooking, and she knew how to make it as soon as she heard it.
It was the first time that Qian Duoduo saw a melon that looked like a snake. No wonder it was called snake melon.
She scattered the peeled skin into the chicken trough, and the hens swarmed over to eat it.
You know what, the hens were eating with gusto.
As for domestic pigs, they naturally eat pig grass and leftover food used for washing dishes.
Qian Duoduo doesn't mind that pigs are smelly and dirty. She just wants to raise them well and have a good harvest at the end of the year so that she can make a small contribution to the family.
As lunch time was getting closer, Song Yue sat bored in the chair, tapping the table with her fingers, wondering in her heart how to spend this free time.
Suddenly, an idea flashed through my mind like lightning——
Wouldn't it be nice to go to the third room to chat with her best friend and share the latest information they have?
Yes, she stood up without hesitation and walked towards the third room with brisk steps.
Along the way, Song Yue was in a very happy mood, with a faint smile on her lips.
Soon, she came to the door of the third room and knocked on it lightly.
After a while, the door opened, revealing a familiar and kind smiling face. It was her good friend with whom she could talk about anything.
The two smiled at each other, then walked into the room arm in arm and sat together intimately.
"Dear, let me tell you, that Liu Yiyi is really embarrassing. I just saw the police escorting her and Wang Zhiqing back home. The villagers looked at her with such expressions..."
As soon as she sat down, Song Yue couldn't wait to start talking, "She's obviously just a nominal female lead, but she doesn't do anything serious all day long. She only does things that a vicious female supporting character would do.
Humph, I just don't believe that someone like her can always have the halo of the heroine? Our mission this time will definitely be completed smoothly! "
Speaking of this, Song Yue's eyes flashed with confidence.
Su Miantang nodded repeatedly, expressing his agreement:
"Indeed, I don't know what Liu Yiyi was thinking. She actually came up with so many flawed and shady things. I really don't know if she's lost her mind. She's simply asking for trouble!"
The two of them talked about Liu Yiyi's various evil deeds, and became more and more angry as they talked.
However, at the same time, they became more determined to complete the task.
After all, justice will eventually triumph over evil, and people with evil intentions like Liu Yiyi will sooner or later receive the punishment they deserve.
"Big brother and his family's birthday is in three days. I want all the women in the family to go to the supply and marketing cooperative and queue up to buy meat. You can also give some money and notes to my two sisters-in-law based on the situation..."
Putting aside Liu Yiyi's matter, their family also has to live a normal life.
Su Miantang calculated the date and found that Saturday was her man's birthday.
That day was the three brothers’ birthday, a big day, so they had to celebrate it well.
Song Yue heard it and nodded, thinking it made sense.
"Of course you do. I'll prepare two tables of delicious food. I'll call Hu Zi's family of three, and Chun Hua's family of four."
These two old sisters are Song Yue's only two connections in this village. They are really good to her. It is the birthday of her three sons, so she should invite their two families to dinner.
"We need two tables. I guess my uncle is off that day. I'll ask Ayang to treat my uncle and his family to a simple meal in the evening."
Su Miantang nodded and didn't mention inviting other relatives, not even her own family.
"Okay, that's it. I'll tell the first and second wives about this before lunch."
Song Yue had a smile on her face, and the public money in her hands was much more than at the beginning.
In terms of money, it is definitely the third wife and husband of Haoguiwu who contributed the most, but in terms of effort, the first and second wives also contributed a lot.
Think about it, if the eldest daughter-in-law doesn’t take care of the kitchen chores, who will cook and wash the dishes?
If it weren't for the second wife taking care of the poultry and pigs, cutting grass for the pigs every day, and taking care of the poultry's food and hygiene, how would the family get eggs? Wouldn't the hygiene be in shambles?
The third wife contributed a lot of money, but she did not do any of the hard work in the fields or the chores at home.
When a family lives together, isn’t it just you help me and I help you?
If you care so much about trivial matters, how can you live your life?
Besides, we only eat from the same pot for a few months. At the end of the year, when the family is divided, the food will be divided into three parts.
By then, there will be no question of who is taking advantage of whom.
Song Yue thought so and didn't feel panicked at all.
Anyway, she has decided to cling to her good friend!
