Jiang Baige started lying as soon as she got up in the morning, and the person she lied to was this kind old lady. She felt a little uncomfortable and was busy chanting Buddhist mantras in her heart.
"Amitabha, this is truly a sin."
After spouting a bunch of nonsense, I felt ashamed to face this kind old man.
Uncomfortably, he raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, "Grandma Meng, I'm going to wash my face."
As she spoke, she went to the yard carrying the thermos.
Grandma Meng's voice rang out in the room, "Then go wash your face first. Can we have porridge in the morning?"
Jiang Baige replied from outside the door: "Sure! Could you please put down more rice?"
Now, everything we eat at home is brought out by Jiang Baige from the space, including meat, vegetables, and everything else you want.
Grandma Meng, however, still lived the same life as before, living a tight life. She was very frugal when cooking, and her porridge was watery. She always had to remind herself to put more rice in it.
Grandma Meng muttered, "Before, we couldn't even eat anything we wanted, but now we cook pot after pot. How much can two people eat?"
As she spoke, she took a basin to scoop rice, scooped a bowl of rice from the rice jar and poured it into the basin, then put the bowl back into the rice jar.
He felt the rice in the basin and found that there was too much, so he grabbed a handful and put it back into the rice jar.
When Chen Jianguo woke up early in the morning, he felt weak all over and his arms were sore, as if they were pressed by something.
When I was getting dressed, I saw my shorts with spots on them. My face suddenly turned red and I quickly changed my pants.
When he opened the door, he looked around the yard warily, but his mother and sister were not there.
When he came to the well, he quickly threw the water bucket into the well and pumped some water up.
Pour water into a wooden basin, take the underpants out of your pocket and throw them in to soak, then take some soap nuts and apply them and start washing.
Looking at his pants, his face turned red to his ears. He was really crazy. Why would he have such a dream?
But he couldn't remember what he dreamed about.
Zhou Xiuying came out of the house and saw what her son was washing.
She said somewhat unhappily, "You are a grown man, why are you washing and scrubbing? Just put what you want to wash there, and I will let Jiaojiao wash it for you later."
When Chen Jianguo heard his mother's voice, he said in a panic, "Tighten your pants and wash quickly."
"It's just a pair of pants. I can just wash them. Why should I let my sister do it?"
Something must be wrong when things are out of the ordinary. Zhou Xiuying asked, "Was it Jiaojiao who was making a fuss just now? You asked her to help wash your pants, but she refused, right?"
"This girl is getting lazier as she gets older."
Chen Jianguo said hurriedly, "Mom, I didn't call my sister, maybe she hasn't woken up yet! Let her sleep for a while, the little girl must be very tired from working."
Zhou Xiuying felt that her girl had it easy enough. She only had to collect pig grass a few times a day, so how could she be tired? She was so lazy now because she was spoiled by her father and son.
Unhappily, he said, "Spoil her! See how she'll get married in the future if you spoil her like that."
Chen Jianguo was really afraid that his mother would ask his sister to help him wash his trouser legs, so he rubbed them a few times and took them into the house.
Zhou Xiuying turned around and didn't see her son, so she went to knock on her daughter's door.
"Jiaojiao, hurry up and get up. What were you yelling about just now? Did you dream about a ghost?"
Chen Jiaojiao pulled the blanket off her head and said with her eyes half open, "I didn't dream last night."
Chen Jianguo listened to his mother and found out that she also heard the sound, so he was sure that he had not heard it wrong.
Who was shouting early in the morning? Suddenly, an idea came to my mind: could something have happened to the young educated youth?
He hurried out of the house, ran to the wall and stood on tiptoe to look into the yard next door.
Seeing Jiang Baige brushing her teeth, she asked quietly, "Baige, was that the sound coming from your side this morning?"
When Jiang Baige heard Chen Jianguo's voice, she looked up and saw Chen Jianguo looking at her from the courtyard wall. Her face suddenly turned red and she brushed her teeth faster.
After rinsing his mouth, he said, "It's okay, it's okay. I just almost fell this morning."
I thought to myself, "It's over, it's over. This person must know something! He's asking me on purpose."
She was grumbling in her heart, afraid that he would find out that she had slept in his bed for a night.
Chen Jianguo said, "Oh, I'm glad you're okay. I'll be more worried next time."
Jiang Baige nodded, quickly washed her face, poured out the water in the basin, and took the basin into the house.
After breakfast, Jiang Baige went to work. She guessed that today she would still be cutting grass for pigs, because she had been cutting grass for pigs for half a month.
It is not easy to collect grass for pigs at this time. The weather has been too hot recently and there has been little rain. Wild vegetables grow slowly and some of them have been dug up and eaten by people.
They often have to walk a long way to get back today's tasks.
When she went out, she walked faster on purpose, for fear of running into Chen Jianguo, which would have been really embarrassing for her.
When we arrived at the threshing ground, the educated youth had already gathered there.
Jiang Baige came over and greeted them briefly.
The atmosphere among the educated youth is very good today. Those who usually look down on everyone are not here, and the few remaining people are easy to get along with.
After waiting for the village chief to assign today's work, everyone went to work.
Jiang Baige was assigned the job of cutting grass for pigs. She and Chen Jiaojiao took a few little girls to cut grass for pigs.
Jiang Baige just looked around the crowd and didn't see Chen Jianguo, so she became curious again.
She asked softly, "Jiaojiao, why didn't your brother see anyone today?"
Chen Jiaojiao cut a handful of pig grass and put it into the backpack. "My brother is going to work in town today and won't be working anymore."
Suddenly, his eyes sparkled and he asked, "Sister, you don't want to see my brother, do you?"
Jiang Baige rolled her eyes and said cunningly, "What are you thinking? I'm just weird."
After thinking for a while, he took out a handful of candies from his pocket and gave two to each person.
"Let's go! Let's go cut grass for the pigs out front."
Xiaohua said happily, "Sister Zhiqing, thank you."
Niuniu put the candy in her pocket and said, "Sister, you are so kind. You give us candy every day."
Jiang Baige ruffled her yellow hair and said with a smile, "Didn't you help me too? It's just a few candies, nothing."
Li Xiaobao ran after them, carrying a backpack on his back. "Wait for me, I want to go with you too."
Several people turned around to look at him, all a little puzzled. They obviously didn't like him, so how could he be so shameless as to dare to follow them.
Jiang Baige was even more confused. This kid had just pooped in his own water tank a few days ago, so why did he dare to follow them today?
He is really brave, he is not afraid of being beaten by himself.
After Li Xiaobao was taught a lesson by his father that day, he didn't dare to be lazy anymore. If his mother wanted to protect him, his father would divorce her.
Because of this, his mother cries every day and now doesn't dare to spoil him.
