Chapter 17, Mao Jianwen
When there was a big pit, Uncle He had just reminded everyone when An Qianqian was thrown upside down.
When it fell back, it fell crookedly.
"Ouch." Everyone in the carriage cried out and started checking their belongings one by one.
Only An Qianqian almost flew out of the car.
Fortunately, Mao Jianwen was quick-witted and caught the man.
At this time, everyone is wearing a lot of clothes, so there is no skin contact.
But she still felt a little embarrassed to be supported by a man.
"Thank you." An Qianqian quickly broke free and thanked him.
Mao Jianwen felt a little itchy when he heard her say thank you to him, "You're welcome."
Fortunately, we were not far from home, and the villagers got off the bus one after another.
Only An Qianqian and an aunt sat at the back.
Mao Jianwen got off the bus early. His home is in the center of the village, some distance away from the end of the village.
When my aunt saw that there were not many people in the car, she immediately started gossiping.
"Qianqian, do you know that person just now?" Aunt asked with a smile.
An Qianqian shook her head: "I don't know him. Is he from our village?" She seemed to have never seen this person when she was a child.
However, she felt that it was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember what it was like.
"That's the second boy of the village chief. He joined the army at a very young age. Counting the time, it's probably been seven years." Auntie recalled the past.
An Qianqian was stunned for a moment, "He is from the village chief's family?"
Uncle He also heard them talking and interrupted, "Yes, Jianwen is the second son. The village chief has only two sons, but both sons are promising."
Who in the village doesn’t envy the village chief? It’s such a blessing to have two such promising sons in the family.
An Qianqian was wondering in her mind, she didn't expect that the boss had also been arranged to have a blind date when he was young, and was rejected by the man.
That’s right, An Qianqian now knows where that familiar feeling comes from.
She had seen him on TV in a previous life.
Ahem...
The aunt was still talking to An Qianqian about the situation in the village chief's family, but An Qianqian was a little absent-minded.
In her opinion, she felt that she should not have any connection with such a big shot.
She just wanted to spend more time with her mother, then find someone she liked and have a bunch of kids.
The other side.
As soon as Mao Jianwen returned home, he was questioned by his mother.
Mao Jianwen did not hide the fact that she looked down on him.
Dislike one's own conditions being too poor, etc.
Anyway, I will lower myself to the dust.
Finally, it was the village chief who spoke up and Mao Jianwen's mother stopped.
Mao Jianxing's wife came over and poured a glass of water for Mao's mother: "Mom, what's the big deal? With Jianwen's looks, are you worried that he won't be able to find a wife? If you ask me, that girl is not worthy of Jianwen."
My brother-in-law is a capable person.
When the family was in poor conditions before, it was thanks to him that we got support, otherwise we wouldn't be living the life we have today.
Fortunately, I have managed to survive these years. When my man becomes stronger, I will no longer be worried that Jianwen will not be able to find a wife.
"You're right. Our family doesn't think highly of her. How dare she look down on my son? Who does she think she is?" Mao's mother was also a powerful person. She could beat and scold her son, but she would be unhappy if others said something to her.
Liu Ying understands her mother-in-law very well. Whenever she has conflicts with her husband, she never says anything herself but goes straight to the matter and lets her mother-in-law deal with him.
It turns out that this trick is really useful. Not only did her mother-in-law help her deal with Mao Jianxing, she also stood on her side.
Over the past few years, everyone would say that she has fallen into a happy nest.
After scolding, Mao's mother felt better, "By the way, Yingzi, is Haoer asleep?" She only saw her eldest daughter-in-law here, and no grandson.
"Well, he just fell asleep. He must have been very tired from playing today. It would be good to take a nap. It would be best if he could sleep until dawn." Liu Ying was very troubled by his son.
He is only one year old, I don’t know how he can be so energetic every day.
While others take a nap at noon, he goes to the yard to crawl.
He is very strong, which is really like his father.
"Then let him sleep. He's been chasing chickens in the backyard all day." This grandson of mine is very brave. As soon as he learned to walk, he started to annoy dogs.
After hearing this, the village chief disagreed a little: "Don't let him drive the chickens away. What if they don't lay eggs?" The chickens at home are used to lay eggs.
After Mao Jianwen's story was revealed, he smiled thankfully at his sister-in-law.
When An Qianqian came back, she showed off her gains of the day to her mother.
Mother An looked at these things and felt distressed. "Why did you buy so many, kid? One is enough for mom." Mother An said as she looked at the two cotton-padded clothes her daughter bought for her.
She said that, but everyone could see that she was very happy.
"Mom, we can't not change these clothes. Buy two pairs to alternate between." An Qianqian could understand the need to save money at this time, but she didn't want to see her mother saving money like this.
As the Chinese New Year got closer, it started to snow lightly.
After the autumn harvest, she had a bountiful harvest in the mountains.
With the help of Gou Wa and a few others picking cherries, she lived a very happy life in these years.
She brews the cherries directly using the method of making wine, and let’s not talk about it, they have already started to ferment.
However, due to weather reasons, this wine may only be available next year.
"Mom, these chickens can be sold again. Let's drag them directly to Boss Zhu." Looking at the chickens in the backyard, An Qianqian's face was filled with joy of a good harvest.
Mother An was feeding the pigs and took a look at the chickens. "We have to sell them. We can't raise them in the backyard next year. After the snow melts, I will fence off the mountain behind us and use it to raise chickens."
There is a small hill behind their house, and their house is built on the hill. This entire hill belongs to them.
But there are not many trees on the mountain, just some weeds and trees.
It's of no use at all.
"I think it's okay." An Qianqian had been thinking about the back mountain for a long time. However, if she wanted to fence it off, she would have to buy a net, which is not cheap.
"Later, go talk to your Uncle Changsheng and ask him to build a fenced yard in the back hill for our family." Mother An said as she began to plan.
It doesn't cost much to build a fenced yard. You can just cut down some small trees in the back hill to make it.
"Uncle Changsheng also knows this?" An Qianqian was a little surprised.
"Of course, don't underestimate your Uncle Changsheng. He just has difficulty walking, but he is actually very capable. It's just that his wife is blind and was seduced away by a pretty boy." Mother An became angry as she spoke.
There is only one person like him in the village, and he knows something about everyone's affairs.
An Qianqian didn't say anything because she didn't know.
She only knew that Xingzi's mother ran away, but she really didn't know what happened.
Her mother didn't say anything a few days ago.
"Why am I telling you all this?" Mother An came to her senses and didn't mention any more things.
After feeding the pigs, she went to wash her hands.
The backyard is full of chicken shit. Even if we sweep it every day, there are so many chickens, how can we sweep it all?
"Go, go, go." As soon as she came over, she was surrounded by chickens. She thought she was going to feed them.
After trying to drive the chicken away, it didn't drive her away. Instead, her hand, which was stained with pig food, was pecked by the chicken.
An Qianqian was delighted by what she saw.
