Chapter 95 Chapter 95 The clothes I washed floated away with the water...
Later, Song Ruan deliberately went around the hill behind the school to chop firewood. From a distance, she saw Fan Yuying wearing her coat and chopping firewood in the tower of the college.
Song Ruan swaggered past the school dragging firewood, dropping it as she walked. She coughed loudly as she walked, looking dizzy. In the less than 100 meters from the foot of the mountain to the school, she dropped more than 20 kilograms of firewood.
Hearing the noise, Fan Yuying walked out of the yard and saw her former student walking away with the only remaining half a handful of firewood in his hand, without looking back or recognizing anyone, with his hair swinging high like a ponytail.
She watched Song Ruan disappear around the corner, then she lowered her head to pick up the chopped wild firewood and brought it back into the house.
Here, the relationship between Song Ruan and the teacher is gradually heating up, and the relationship in the captain's family is gradually boiling over.
Wang Xue was so upset last time when Song Ruan scolded her for being a Japanese devil that she was completely broken down. The captain uncle was unwilling to help her, so she hid in the house for several days, feeling sad and heartbroken.
But she had learned a lot from her mother after all. After healing herself for a few days, she regrouped and planned to lead the army into battle again.
——The main thing is that she and Wang Xing'er have been sleeping on a small kang every day for the past two days, head to head and feet to feet. You breathe in the air that the other person exhales, and she feels so uncomfortable that she wants to scratch the wall.
Well, she did it, and then it was like a chain reaction, the walls were covered with dust, and in the end she had to sweep the kang and Wang Xing'er scolded her.
No, she can’t stand it anymore, she wants a big house!
Bai Fangfang happened to be walking out with a pile of clothes in her arms. Seeing her so high-spirited and lively, not knowing where she was going, she felt very unhappy.
There is not much work to do in the fields now - the finishing work after autumn was done hundreds of years ago, the fields are almost frozen and even the field mice are gone. Except for the lazy people who haven't saved enough firewood, they have to work hard to collect it. Every household is staying in the house and preparing to hibernate.
In other words, most people now just eat and do not work, and they eat the newly distributed grain after the autumn harvest.
…
Well, Wang Xue and Wang Hao came here these few days, but they didn’t get any food and they didn’t bring any rice with them.
…
In other words, it's a waste of time to raise these two.
Logically speaking, if you eat free rice, you should be aware of the fact that you are eating free rice, be well-behaved and tactful, and for the sake of blood relationship, just say a few words of courtesy and don't accumulate so much anger. But Wang Xue is not like that.
She was brought up in a spoiled environment, and because her mother favored her younger brother, she always ordered her younger brother around. You can imagine her temper.
On the first two days, he was still pretending for a while because he was new to the place and not familiar with the environment, but on the third day, he began to gradually return to his original nature.
She claimed to be a city dweller, and actually looked down on those relatives who had taken them in and given them food. I think they are dirty, rude, and just peasants. Even if you don't say it directly, you will unconsciously express it in your actions.
Take eating for example.
The staple food of the brigade family is distributed in fixed quantities by the brigade leader's wife, but the dishes are placed on the table for everyone to eat together.
Wang Xue disliked the dirty chopsticks of the captain's family and didn't want to join them in stirring the food with their chopsticks, so she would quickly pick up the food before anyone else started to eat and would never pick up any more.
At this point it could be said to be a matter of habit, but Wang Xue was the type who didn't want to suffer a loss. She felt that if she didn't take more food later, of course she would take more at the beginning. But how many dishes could be on a plate now? She took four or five chops and most of it was gone.
But she took a lot and couldn't finish it herself. After all, in this era, many people would make the pickles very salty so that they would have more food to eat with rice, which made them not very tasty. So later on, she gave all the pickles to Wang Hao - he looked like someone who was specifically trying to grab the food like this.
Even in later times when people have enough food and clothing, such a habit would make others unhappy, let alone in the 1970s when food and clothing were scarce and grain was more important than life?
In Bai Fangfang's eyes, this is an unforgivable crime! !
The opposite of Tiangang!
You're the only one eating for free, how dare you fight so fiercely for it!
When Bai Fangfang thought of this, her heart, liver, spleen, stomach and lungs ached. Seeing Wang Xue and Wang Hao, she wanted to chop them up and mix them with rice as a dish.
Wang Xue also loves cleanliness. She thinks the countryside is dirty everywhere and keeps asking to wash her hair, take a bath and wash her paws. She has taken three baths in less than a week. In the countryside at that time, taking a bath was not an easy thing. Water had to be fetched from the river and firewood had to be collected from the mountains. Wang Xue can barely even lift water for a bath, so how could she do these tasks?
Besides, Wang Xue had only been here for a few days and was still a guest. How could I have the nerve to ask her to work right from the start?
In other words, this shameless little Shiba Inu doesn't pick up water or burn water, but just waits for people to serve him!
Damn it, Bai Fangfang has been acting as a nanny for this poor young lady these past few days - and she doesn't even get paid for her work - and she's so angry that her lungs are about to explode.
Wash, wash, wash your mother’s head! Are you covered in feces, or are you always ready to be blanched in the pot?
They all seem like trivial things, but isn’t life made up of these trivial things?
Bai Fangfang twitched her face, forced a smile, and squeezed out a voice from between her teeth: "Cousin, where are you going to play again?"
Wang Xue also didn't like her cousin's wife - she always looked at her with a gloomy look, which was really creepy! Her uncle, the head of the family, has agreed to let her live here, so no one knows what she, as a daughter-in-law, is complaining about.
She curled her lips perfunctorily: "I just took a walk, I didn't go anywhere to play."
Listen, listen!
Walk around! !
I'm so bored that I want to walk around! !
Bai Fangfang's chest swelled and then flattened, and she said with a fake smile: "Cousin, we country people don't have more food than you did in the city before. During the slack season like now, everyone doesn't move much except doing housework, otherwise they will get hungry quickly and need to eat more food. We are poor peasants with a good family background, how can we have so much food?"
The sarcasm in her tone was so obvious that Li Caixia, who had just come out, could feel her sister-in-law's deep dissatisfaction after only hearing the tail end of it.
However, she did not speak for Wang Xue. Instead, she stood on the side of her sister-in-law, who was only a little older than her, and knew how to shovel chicken manure and collect firewood, but during mealtimes, she had her food snatched away by this cousin who did nothing.
Although she didn't grab the food directly, but what's the difference between her behavior of taking half of it without even touching her chopsticks and grabbing the food directly?
How shameless!
She also said: "Cousin, if you really have nothing to do, why don't you go up the mountain with Hutou to collect firewood. We have used up a lot of firewood these days, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to survive the winter."
Wang Xue was not a fool. Of course she could hear the sarcasm and ridicule from her two cousins. She felt annoyed and disdainful, as well as a bit of superiority.
They are relatives after all, but he has to quibble with his cousin over such a trivial matter as a few pieces of firewood and two buckets of water. He is so short-sighted and mean. It is true that peasants are peasants!
But she didn't want to pick up firewood. It was so dirty with mud and grass, and there might be bugs in it!
So he flatly refused and said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I'm just walking around. It won't consume much energy, and I won't eat much more food. I won't go so far up the mountain."
My goodness, what does “eat more food” mean?
So you should eat more?
You don't do any work every day, but every time you grab food, you grab more than a pig that has been hungry for three days! Why do you want to eat more now? Will you kill yourself to add to their dishes during the New Year? !
Her attitude instantly ignited Bai Fangfang's accumulating anger.
He put the washing basin on the ground gently, patted his waist and said, "My cousin is more relaxed. She can go out for a walk when she has nothing to do. I am not as lucky as you. I have to fetch water and feed chickens every day. I wanted to relax for a while, but then I remembered that I still have a basin of clothes to wash."
She was angry and didn't want to beat around the bush with Wang Xue. She said directly with her belly sticking out, "Cousin, since you have time to walk around, why don't you help my sister-in-law wash this basin of clothes? My sister-in-law is pregnant and has been busy all morning, so why don't you help her out?"
Wang Xue: …
Wang Xue couldn't even play dumb since he said it so bluntly. The other party even used her pregnancy as an excuse so that she couldn't refuse. She could only walk to the river with the wooden basin in her arms, angrily. She dropped the basin to the ground and squatted down heavily.
I've only been here for a few days, and you've already given me such a warning! Who knows how much work I’ll have to do in the future!
The more Wang Xue thought about it, the angrier she became.
"Ask me to do the laundry for you! Wash! Wash! Wash!"
She grabbed the clothes and swung them around in the water. The water was icy cold and her hands hurt from the cold.
She was filled with anger, and suddenly with a sneer, she dumped the wash basin into the river! The gray and colorful clothes and trousers are like the sails of a hundred boats racing, floating down the rolling river.
She clapped her hands, dragged the empty wooden basin, and walked away without looking back.
"You asked me to wash your clothes! Humph! Bah!"
