The Waking of Insects passed in a flash, the weather gradually became warmer, and I took off my coat and put on long sleeves.
Tender sprouts have sprouted in the fields between the mountains, and the sight of these little bits of green is a delight.
Lin Ye also brought back the tea trees that he had asked someone to buy. Seeing that the weather was good, he asked several aunts in the village to help plant the tea trees.
He was not a stingy person. He paid each person two dollars a day and provided them with a lunch.
The work is not too heavy and does not interfere with the work on the farm.
Wang Juhua originally thought that such a good thing would definitely not flow into the fields of outsiders.
As a result, Lin Ye didn't even call her, which made her very angry.
It was noon and Tang Guifen was preparing to deliver lunch to the aunts working in the mountains.
Seeing that the weather was hot, Su Man took the initiative to take on this job.
He finished the rice in the bowl in a few bites, wiped his mouth and stood up.
"Grandma, let me go! You can rest at home for a while."
Today grandma specially braised an pork elbow and made a braised pork rice according to her method.
Each person had a bowl of white rice, topped with a piece of pork elbow covered in rich sauce, a braised egg on the side, and seasonal wild vegetables.
She ate two bowls by herself before she stopped. The moment she stood up, she felt a chill on her waist and looked down.
"Grandma, have I gained weight recently?"
The food in Suzhou is so good that I even feel my waist has become fatter.
Tang Guifen looked at her and smiled happily.
"Why are you fat? This is what a little girl should be like! Lin Ye, don't you agree?"
Lin Ye had just finished his meal and didn't know what he was thinking. Looking at Su Man's suspicious eyes, he couldn't help but curl his lips.
"I feel like I can still gain some weight. I was too thin before."
"Go and come back soon, I have something for you."
Su Man looked at him curiously: "What?"
Lin Ye said nothing and kept the question in suspense.
"Okay! Then I'll go deliver the food first."
Su Man picked up the vegetable basket, put on a straw hat and ran away.
The two ponytails are swinging behind her, so cute and tight.
Lin Ye couldn't help but stare at him in a daze, until Tang Guifen came over and said something indifferently.
"Oh, you're a girl! I haven't seen you so enthusiastic about watching Red Star in all these years!"
Lin Ye came to his senses and looked at her helplessly.
"grandmother."
Tang Guifen waved her hands in disdain: "Don't call me. If your good wife really becomes a girl, I'll see where you can cry..."
————
Su Man walked quickly and soon reached the mountain. When Liu Sanmei and a few aunts saw her coming, they happily walked over from the fields.
"Where's the meal Lin Ye's wife brought? I can smell the fragrance from far away."
The aunts are all good at work and don't cheat at all.
It only took half a day to plant more than half of the tea trees. I will definitely finish it today.
Su Man brought out the food with a smile and asked them to sit down and eat.
"Eat while it's hot. After you finish eating, come to our house and drink some mung bean soup. It's just right to cool down."
When they picked up their bowls, they discovered the delicious food, with both meat and eggs. They wouldn't even see it in other families during festivals!
"Lin Ye really loves his wife. Look, he's worried that she won't have enough to eat!"
"That's right. It only took a few days for my young wife to become fair and rosy."
"What nonsense are you talking about? How can it be that the food is good? It's clearly that Lin Ye is well-fed, right?"
The aunts are all experienced people and have no taste for either meat or vegetables.
Su Man laughed awkwardly twice and didn't dare to say anything.
Lin Ye's face turns red when he is teased, so what's the point of being nourished?
Wang Juhua, who was working in the field below, was busy under the scorching sun and was very angry.
Listening to them laughing with Su Man and smelling the fragrant smell of meat, my heart felt like it was being scratched by a cat's claws.
After all, she is her aunt. Just now, Su Man passed by her field and didn't even offer her a bite to eat. She is so heartless.
The more I think about it, the angrier I get, the angrier I get, and the hungrier I get, the angrier I get.
Unable to continue this work, she climbed up the edge of the field and washed the mud off her legs.
He started to quarrel with a few other people working in the fields and deliberately made loud noises.
"Whose wife is like her? She's the best at eating, but she's not very good at anything. She's lazy and greedy."
The other gossipers also started grumbling because they couldn't stand the Lin Ye family.
"That's right. If it was my daughter-in-law, she would have been beaten to death by my son long ago."
"It's also because there's no one in the family who can do anything. After all, Lin Ye is lame, and his blind grandmother is easy to control. Doesn't that make her the king of the mountain? In my family, it's all me, the mother, who has the final say."
"The old saying is true: a wife who is beaten is like dough made by kneading. She must be beaten, and she must be beaten to death."
There is no other new daughter-in-law like this, it is obvious that she is targeting Su Man.
Su Man was studying the shepherd's purse by the edge of the field, thinking of picking some to take home and make dumplings.
He glanced at a few people and said with a smile.
"Aunt Li, didn't your son have three ribs broken by your wife? Why didn't you beat her to death?"
Aunt Li blushed and was speechless. Her father-in-law was a butcher, and her daughter-in-law had been helping to butcher pigs and massage their legs since she was a child. How could her son be a match for her?
He looked at the other chatterbox and continued to argue.
"Aunt Wang? Your two daughters-in-law have been gone for eight hundred years, your son cheated on his wife and was chased away from home, so he doesn't dare to return. You're the only one left at home with an old sow. You're such a good mother."
"As for you, Fifth Aunt, tsk tsk tsk, your legs were broken by your man. It can be seen that you are really a ball of dough that has been kneaded to death. I will go to the banquet tomorrow after you are beaten to death."
Several people thought that Su Man had seldom gone out for some time since she married Lin Ye, so she must have a soft personality and be easy to control.
