Zhao Xiaoyu smiled awkwardly. Her space was kept fresh, and it looked the same when she entered. He's so awesome, there's nothing she can do about it.
"Dad, go sell the honeysuckle, and we'll go to the mountain to continue picking them."
"Okay, you guys stay here for a while and leave at daybreak."
As he spoke, he took out a few black flour steamed buns. In the morning, he brought a large clay pot from home, filled it with water, went to the town to buy a few eggs, and cooked egg soup for lunch. This clay pot was placed in their house, and they were not afraid of being discovered by the people in the old house.
As soon as the sky was slightly bright, the three women headed up the mountain. Little Li Xi couldn't walk fast, so Song simply stuffed her into a basket and carried her up the mountain on her back.
"Dad, the third brother's family is missing again!" Zhao Laoer wailed, feeling as if the sky had fallen. His legs went weak before he even reached the ground.
Old man Zhao’s brows were tightly knitted together.
"Oh my, these damned bastards are lazy all day long. No one feeds the chickens at home, and the pigs ran out of food yesterday. What should we do? God, why don't you take away these evil bastards?"
The old man's face was dark and gloomy. "Second brother, go cook!"
"yes!"
Li twisted her waist reluctantly and went to the kitchen. She cooked both meals yesterday. You work yourself to death at work, and then you have to cook and wash the dishes when you get home. Who can stand this? She admitted that she was not as capable as her third brother's wife and she really couldn't do it.
"Second brother, ask your Lai Di to collect grass for the pigs and feed the chickens. Your Da Zhu and Er Zhu will go to the fields to work together. Old woman, you will wash the clothes at home."
Zhao Laoer was unwilling to do so. Why? His eldest brother had to study and didn't work. The third brother's family went out to play every day and didn't work either. He was the one supporting the whole family. It didn't make sense no matter how much he said it. He wouldn't do it!
The old woman who had never done housework since she got married was fed up and sat on the ground, slapping her thighs. "What a sin I have committed to end up with such a rotten thing, and now I have to take care of the whole family. I won't live any longer, I won't live any longer!"
The noise was so loud that it attracted a few people who came to the door to watch the fun, and they kept looking in from outside the yard. What is the Zhao family doing so early in the morning? This place has been a bit noisy lately!
"Why don't you pull your mother in? Second brother, go and close the gate."
What a disgrace, he always causes trouble.
Zhao Xiaoyu's family spends the whole day picking fruits. During these two days, they are very energetic and can pick dozens of kilograms a day! All the honeysuckle on the mountain can be picked in one more day.
Zhao Dashu sighed regretfully, it would be great if there was still a honeysuckle forest! In the past two days, they have made a lot of money, almost one or two taels of silver a day. He had never saved so much private money in his life.
At that time, except for buying food, all the money was on Zhao Xiaoyu. Zhao Dashu was a little envious of his daughter, who, at only a young age, had saved such a large dowry for him. Well, after I'm done with my work, I'll talk to my daughter about taking some out and buying a roast chicken. Well, the image of the big elbow is also very good.
"The day after tomorrow, we'll go around this mountain. It's such a big mountain, maybe there's honeysuckle there. But we definitely can't go into the deep mountains."
He loves money, but he loves life more!
Song was also very happy in her heart. Her daughter was so capable! He is much better than her. With this money, she will be able to marry a decent woman in the future.
When they got home, it was still dark. They got home later today than yesterday.
"Old Third, where on earth have you and your family been? Why didn't Lai Di see you on the mountain?"
"The mountain is so big, isn't it normal that she didn't look at us?"
"I've also asked around in the village, and they haven't seen your family. Did you do something shameful behind my back?" The old man stared at him without blinking. The eldest brother is about to take the imperial examination. At this time, he absolutely cannot allow any dirty things to happen in the family that will affect his career.
"Dad, can't you expect me to do something? What dirty things can I do with my daughter and wife? We just go to find some wild vegetables to fill our stomachs, is that not okay? Dad, am I your biological son?"
"If I had known you would be like this now, I would have stuffed you into the shit pot and drowned you!" She was doing laundry today and her waist and hands were sore. I hadn't done any work for more than ten days, and when I started working suddenly, I couldn't stand it at all. Even so, her second son complained to her at night that his clothes were not washed clean, which made her angry...
I don't know when the old woman jumped out, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she started talking shit.
"Then you should drown yourself again!"
Old woman: ...
