Chapter 106 Shepherd's Purse Dumplings



The noises of the argument between the few people became louder and louder, and the whole family started fighting again.

Wan Qingliu admired this family very much. They were so energetic.

Take the few people who fell into the pit for example. When they were rescued, the old woman had fainted, so everyone had to carry her to the hospital.

As a result, when the old woman woke up, she no longer looked like a person who had drowned, and started fighting again.

Seeing that the person had woken up and everyone was preparing to pack up and go back, these men started fighting again.

Now, everyone's face and nose are bruised and red, and they have to stay in the hospital for bandages and medicine.

The villagers who were traveling with them couldn't help but say, "Why are you doing this? Building a thatched hut doesn't cost much. Don't you think it's too small for two families to squeeze into such a small room?"

Hua Weizhong, with a bandage on his head, breathed in and out as he said, "I'll cover it when I get back!"

At the same time, several people secretly regretted that they would have quarreled if they had known earlier. Now they have to pay money after coming to the hospital.

After all, Li Lihua herself was not entirely sure about this matter. She just had some doubts in her heart after seeing it. She said it now just to kick Hua Weizhong out of the house.

Now that the other party has decided to build a new house, she will not dwell on it. However, this joke has been seen by other people after all, and it will probably spread as soon as she returns to the village.

Others didn't mind, but the old woman was very angry.

After the wounds on both sides were bandaged, the old woman who had fainted had long since woken up and now looked quite alive. She was probably fine, so the family prepared to go back.

As a result, the old woman just stood up and fell down with a bang.

"mom!"

"Call a doctor!"

After the chaos, Wan Qingliu finally arrived home in the evening.

As soon as I got home, I sat down on the bench and shouted, "Oh, I'm so tired! Can someone pour me a glass of water?"

Hua Wanchi immediately came over with a bowl of spiritual spring water in his hand: "Granny, drink some water!"

Wan Qingliu picked up the bowl and gulped down the whole bowl of water in one breath. Only after she finished drinking it did she feel a little better.

Zhou Yujiao asked, "Mom, why are you back so late? What did their family say? Is it resolved?"

Wan Qingliu: "It was such a mess today, I was so angry I almost died!"

"ah?"

Even Wang Jingxia was surprised.

"Wasn't his old woman arguing fiercely? Could she have drowned?"

Wan Qingliu waved her hand. "Don't tell me, no one in this family has good intentions. Weixing's wife directly spread rumors that her mother-in-law was cheating on her husband, and she ended up getting so angry that she died!"

Several people sighed, but since it was someone else's family business, it was none of their business.

Wan Qingliu felt that Li Lihua probably got her inspiration from the gossip she heard from the other end of the bathroom. She was quick-witted to associate someone else's affair with her mother-in-law, but it was a pity that she was a bit immoral.

In short, Hua Weizhong and Hua Weixing, two brothers who were not on good terms with each other, handled their mother's funeral together.

As grandchildren, Hua Ziqiang and his friends also had to wear mourning clothes at the funeral. After all, it was okay to have a falling out with their uncle, but if they didn't even attend their own grandmother's funeral, they would be criticized.

The word "filial piety" can crush a person to death.

The young and middle-aged people in the village helped Hua Weizhong build a thatched house, and the family finally moved out of the old house.

Both families tacitly agreed not to have any ideas about Hua Ziqiang because his aunt was in the village.

Now that she is pregnant, if they dare to bully Hua Ziqiang, it will not be just his aunt who will stand up, but the entire Hua family.

Although it doesn’t matter whether the two brothers have the same father now, after all, their mother was furious and Hua Goudan was buried long ago, but there is still a grudge in their hearts.

Therefore, from then on, the two brothers were like strangers when they met, and they seemed to have no contact with each other until they died.

Then comes spring plowing.

When talking about spring plowing, we have to mention the tractors in the village.

The team leader selected a few smart young men to learn how to drive a tractor, and now they can drive it quite well.

Early in the morning, Hua Wanchi took Xiao Youzi and his family to the ridge of the field to watch the tractor work.

A group of people stood nearby, watching with excitement and curiosity the machines in the field turning the soil, which were much faster than the old oxen.

The crowd was buzzing with the sound of discussion.

"You said tractors can plow the land, how great it would be if they could also plant rice!"

"That's a good idea. We've already let the tractor do the plowing and transplanting. What do we need you for?"

"Everyone works so hard and still can't eat enough, can't you just let them relax a little?"

"I heard from the technician that a tractor can be used to transplant rice, but it needs to be equipped with transplanting tools! But the higher-ups haven't sent them yet."

In fact, in theory, tractors can still integrate all functions, but although there is theoretical technology, there are no realistic conditions for this.

It would be great if the results can adapt to multiple energy sources and all terrains.

Hua Wanchi felt a little regretful. Such a large field of sweet clover would have been spectacular if it had spread out to form a sea of flowers, but now it has all been turned into nutrients in the fields.

However, shepherd's purse is now beginning to flourish again.

Hua Wanchi ran home happily, and when he saw Wan Qingliu, he shouted, "Grandma, I want to eat shepherd's purse dumplings!"

Hua Xuguo happened to be passing by and was delighted when he heard this: "Shepherd's purse is everywhere, there's even a patch next to the private plot! Why don't you just ask your mother to go get a basketful?"

Zhou Yujiao said angrily: "Every day you want to eat this or that. You were born in our family. If you go to someone else's house, you will be beaten!"

But he still took a basket and scissors and went to the field to cut shepherd's purse.

Zhou Yujiao was very happy when she came back because there was an unexpected harvest in her basket.

"I see mugwort leaves growing well by the field, perfect for making Qingming rice cakes!"

Qingming rice cake can be made another day, but shepherd's purse dumplings must be eaten today, otherwise Hua Wanchi will make a scene for everyone to see.

Hehehe, she's acting like a child again. Shouldn't she be allowed to act like a child and be willful for once?

Hua Wanchi felt that it was better to be a child, to have fun playing everywhere, to act as spoiled as she pleased and no one would mind her!

Little Pomelo's mouth was watering: "I want to eat shepherd's purse dumplings too. They are delicious."

Wan Qingliu requisitioned Hua Xuguo's bicycle and went to the county town. As usual, he delivered some food to three families in the city, and then returned home with two kilograms of pork.

Since we are going to use shepherd's purse to make dumplings, they must have meat filling to be fragrant. Shepherd's purse alone will lack some flavor.

In the past, the grandfather and grandson were very bold - to be more precise, Hua Wanchi was very bold. If they had something, they would just release it directly, and then Wan Qingliu would be round again.

Now the two of them are becoming more and more cautious, and they will still go to the county town to pretend.

The dumplings were cooked. Zhou Yujiao took the lead in filling a bowl and placed it in front of Hua Wanchi: "Here, eat it, little greedy boy, the dumplings you wanted are ready!"

Wang Jingxia also smiled and served a bowl to Xiao Youzi: "This little brat was drooling just now!"
