Chapter 154 Sending Melon Seeds
Xu Zhinian and Xu Zhixin also put on new cotton-padded jackets, looking very happy.
"Come inside, it's cold outside."
“Hey~”
Du Ruohong was also very happy and took out the bag in her hand as soon as she entered the house.
"Yunshuang, these are the melon seeds grown by my mother's family. I'll bring some to you."
Nowadays, everyone grows some sunflowers themselves.
When they are harvested in autumn, you can fry them and eat them as a snack.
If stored properly, there is no problem eating it until next autumn.
"Sister-in-law, what are you doing with this?
Take it back and feed it to the two children."
"This is for you. There's still a lot at home. You can cook some yourself later!"
"Yes, Second Aunt, just keep it. My grandma gave us a lot."
Liu Yunshuang was really a little embarrassed. Although this thing was not valuable, it was still generous to give it as a gift.
"Don't refuse. We are sisters, so we are friends!"
Du Ruohong winked and looked intimate.
Liu Yunshuang was no longer shy and quickly thanked him.
From the current perspective, this family is indeed worth making friends with.
As to what extent, we still need to observe later.
After being reborn, she didn't dare to trust anyone.
“By the way, sister-in-law, the weather is good today, so I went to Qingyang Town.
I didn’t call you because I was afraid it would be inconvenient.”
Du Ruohong was stunned at first, then she started laughing.
"It's okay, then we can go buy some New Year's goods tomorrow and it won't be a big deal."
"Sister-in-law, you seem very happy, is there any good news?"
Du Ruohong was indeed quite happy today, and the smile on her lips never faded.
"Yunshuang, to be honest with you, we went back to my parents' home today.
They also support our separation.”
I shouldn't be so happy about this.
When she looked over with expectant eyes, Du Ruohong knew that this man was not so easy to fool.
"To tell you the truth, my mother has an old hen at home that can lay eggs.
Some chicks will be sent to me next year. Didn’t you say before that I could raise more?
I thought, at least it’s an income.”
So that's how it is!
"Sister-in-law, this is a good thing! Just think about it, raise a few more chickens and wait until they are fully grown.
There were eggs every day, each costing five cents, and the money needed to buy some oil, salt, sauce and vinegar was also a big expense.
If you have roosters, you can sell them whole when they are ready for slaughter, which is also a source of income.”
"Yes, the land is mine now.
Yunshuang, we all have to work hard and live a decent life to show them."
She was holding her anger back, and she had her own plans, not because she was angry with anyone.
But there is no way to tell now.
"Sister-in-law, you are right.
If we live a good life, it is better than anything else.
I looked at Chinen and Chishin and asked, “These are new clothes, right?”
Hearing this, Du Ruohong's smile deepened.
"Yes, I gave them the clothes when they were ready.
It doesn’t matter whether it’s Chinese New Year or not, it’s all the same.”
There is an unwritten rule in their place.
People have to wear new clothes during the Chinese New Year, but since life is tight, no one cares about that anymore.
The cotton-padded jackets of both children were old, short and small, and not warm enough.
Once you do this well, it will come naturally.
The same situation exists in their family.
"Yes, but it's only a few days away.
There are fewer of you this year, so you can be more quiet.”
"Why are you being quiet? You don't know how troublesome this old woman is! We are at home and she calls our three sons to have meetings all day long.
You say living at home, what big deal can there be?
The pigs have been sold these two days, so I don’t have to go to the pig pen anymore. What else can I say?”
This is probably a declaration of sovereignty. Old Mrs. Xu deserves death.
"Why bother with her? It's up to her to do whatever she wants. Just live a comfortable life."
"That's true, I hope Xu Lanjiang doesn't come back.
All you do is preach all day long. It's so annoying."
This guy must be just being stubborn, but it's true that he is angry with his man.
But after such a long time, it's time to calm down a bit.
However, there was no need for Liu Yunshuang to expose her.
"Will Xu Lanchun come back before the New Year? There is no time left."
"It will probably be after the New Year, we've only been married for a few days.
There's no need to go back to the parents' home. They should be waiting for the first month of the lunar year to come together to pay New Year's greetings.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
It’s better not to come back. It’s so annoying.”
Now that they have reached the point of a life-and-death struggle, it is natural that they do not want to meet again.
But for the mother and daughter, how can they show off if they don’t meet each other?
Who knows, we might have to bring the matter to their front.
She didn't tell anyone about the man she met during the day, there was no need.
"Yunshuang, have you heard?
Several more died in the past two days, but the captain didn’t let anyone know and buried them quietly.”
"What?"
She had never heard of this matter before.
This place is quite remote, and few people come to visit.
"It's true, that's all I know."
Du Ruohong said this and held up three fingers.
"What's going on? We have all been given food, so at least we should have no problem getting through the winter..."
"It's not that there's nothing to eat, it's just that it's cold, and I'm not in good health.
They are all older, it’s normal.”
Liu Yunshuang couldn't help but sigh. The winter here was extremely cold.
Many families only heat the kang, and do not use braziers or anything like that.
The temperature is naturally not very good, and we can't stay at home at all.
At least going to the toilet, carrying firewood and so on are all necessary.
It is easy to catch a cold if you go back and forth, which can add to your own illness.
Winter has always been a hurdle.
Whether you can get through it or not is another matter.
"Alas, there will probably be a lot fewer people next year."
"Yeah, it's okay for an old man, but he's still sick.
Death is also a way to enjoy life.
But those little kids are just too pitiful.”
Du Ruohong's words reminded her of Xu Zhiyi in her previous life.
The children who died were all very young and had no resistance.
It is naturally hard to accept the feeling of a tiny life slipping away from you.
Especially, the child's mother.
“Alas, there is nothing we can do about it.
We can't be too careless, be careful and don't catch a cold."
"That's right, it's getting late.
We will go back first, you guys go to bed early."
Du Ruohong left with her two children, leaving behind about two kilograms of melon seeds.
This year, she didn't buy any.
I don't want to be too ostentatious. After all, I don't have the guts to do this thing.
If someone comes during the first month of the lunar year, he will definitely see it.
"Mom, please fry these melon seeds for us. I want to eat some."
Xu Zhili had a pleading look on his face, and it seemed that he was really greedy.
"Okay, but it's too late today. Let's go to bed first. I'll fry it for you tomorrow."
"good!"
The child was also obedient. He tidied up and prepared for bed.
The New Year is coming soon, and Liu Yunshuang is also quite emotional.
