Chapter 035: Cousin

The ugly mother-in-law was chopping wood in the mountains, and when she came back, it was close to noon.

When He Peier saw her coming back, she introduced her cousin and arranged a lunch meal.

"Mother-in-law, stew that half of the chicken at noon and scramble a few eggs." The wild ~ chicken last time entered everyone's stomach the next day, and the remaining half was also left by He Peier to greet guests today.

The ugly mother-in-law answered and went to the kitchen, the daughter of the Xiao family had seen her when she went to inform the news.

"Pelle, don't you really have chicken to eat?" Xiao Xiaojuan was washing the basin by the stream to prepare for the afternoon, and the conversation between the two made her a little hard to believe her ears.

Now at this time, it is very good to have a full meal, the hens raised at home will lay eggs, and the roosters will be sold in the town when the time comes, who will be willing to take them as meat dishes!

He Pei'er nodded, "There is chicken, but it is wild ~ chicken, which was caught in the mountains a few days ago." Her cousin's appearance is obviously misunderstood, if she really has a chicken to eat two, it would be nothing, but it's a pity that the chicks she set haven't been caught yet.

"That's good, I'm blessed." Her cousin's house is a little broken, but there is meat and eggs to eat in life, and she feels that life is not bad.

With one more person to help, the afternoon work will be much easier and faster.

He Peier basically moved her mouth and pointed, the ugly mother-in-law still watched the fire, and Xiao Xiaojuan was responsible for boiling the pot.

Originally, the whole set could be instructed to do it, but He Peier still had an extra heart, and the water and powder were matched with her own hands.

It's not that she can't trust her cousin, it's that she can't trust other people who are greedy, as long as this technology spreads, it will give people who have a heart to take advantage of it, and she won't give the technology to the next person until she has a new project.

The three of them worked together to make things before dark, Xiao Xiaojuan was an unmarried girl, it was not good to build a floor here for the night, and the ugly mother-in-law carried a torch to send her back to the village.

The next day, the two cousins came very early, and they took care of all the tally and baskets, although He Peier could get off the ground but her feet were not strong, so she could only watch from the side, and told her cousins a few words when she left, and asked her to help buy two pig's trotters and come back, and then buy some lentils in stewed soup, she wanted to make up for the shape and make her feet get better soon, she hadn't gone up the mountain for a few days, and her heart was itchy.

Now the business is very good, just at noon, my cousins came back with an empty basket, and my aunt Hu Cuiying came over together.

"Pelle, I know you have a foot injury, so I've come to see you." Hu Cuiying held a roll of flower cloth in her hand, looked up at the house in front of her, and frowned, this house looked too dilapidated.

"Auntie, come in and sit down." He Peier didn't expect her aunt to come over, and wanted to go out to pick her up with a stick.

"Don't move, be careful and hurt again." Hu Cuiying greeted her, helped He Pei'er into the house and sat down, and saw that there was a man with long hair inside, she was not too surprised, after all, she had heard the three children mention it.

"In the future, don't go to places like the mountains, the road is difficult to walk, and there are many fierce beasts, so pay more attention here." Hu Cuiying heard her daughter say that her niece was on the mountain when she hit her feet, and it is still very dangerous on this mountain, and she has to say a few words about her when she comes today.

"Auntie, I see." Many people care about her, He Peier is very happy, although she will still go up the mountain after her feet are good, but she will pay attention in the future.

A few people casually talked about the conversation, He Peier asked the ugly mother-in-law to cook, today my aunt came over, the pig's trotters I just bought are going to be stewed, bean sprouts, cold powder, and eggs, all let the ugly mother-in-law take them out to cook, but it's a pity that the fish is gone, otherwise she will make braised fish for her aunt.

Hu Cuiying listened to her niece report so many dishes in one breath, and people were also startled, and hurriedly stopped her, "Don't be busy, we won't eat here, we still have work to do this afternoon, go home early, and come back another day." ”

Now life is difficult for everyone, she is embarrassed to eat at her niece's place, and the last time her two sons went back after eating here, they all scolded her. Her family has divided the fields and starved to death, and the Xia family has to spend money to buy a grain of rice, how can she come over to eat and drink again.

"Auntie, why do you have to leave again just now." He Peier can somewhat understand her aunt's thoughts, but this is nothing to eat, she is earning money now, and it will get better and better in the future.

He Pei'er didn't stop, and the ugly mother-in-law was not a stingy person, and she had already started to get things in the kitchen.

"Granny Pelle, don't be busy." Hu Cuiying really didn't know how to eat this meal, so she stepped forward to snatch the vegetables from the ugly mother-in-law's hand and put them back, seeing that her sons had already soaked the beans, she asked them to quickly reconcile the accounts and leave in a hurry.

It seems that my aunt really can't eat this rice, and He Peier can't either, so she finally asked the ugly mother-in-law to cook egg syrup, and the brown sugar she bought is still there.

I have to eat something before walking, and there is still more than an hour to go back.

The two of them each made a step, and Hu Cuiying did not stop the matter of boiling sugar water, and asked her sons to reconcile accounts with her niece, and she handed her the flower cloth she brought over.

"I saved some cloth tickets in my hand, and today I pulled the cloth for your sister Juanzi to make new clothes, and I also kept a piece for you."

Aunt is not much different from her own mother, He Pei'er was moved, "Auntie, the family is in difficulty, you have some money, buy me some cloth!" I have the money and will buy it myself. ”

"You buy it for yourself, and it is your aunt's intention to send it, I planned to buy it last time you got married, the time is too tight, and I just made up for it today."

The cheesecloth with white flowers on a blue background, from the perspective of He Peier's later generations, must be very earthy, but there is an aunt's mind in it, and when I touch the cloth under my hand, it feels better than silk.

"By the way, auntie, is Sister Juanzi about to get married?" He Pei'er suddenly remembered this incident, in her previous life, she didn't hear anything outside the window, and her cousin didn't go to participate in her marriage, but according to the time, it should be soon.

"Yes, we have discussed a good day today, the ninth day of the next month. I bought a few feet of cloth to make her two new clothes. ”

Unexpectedly, my cousin's wedding date was less than a month away, and the expression on He Peier's face changed slightly, "Auntie, is my cousin's husband's surname Zhu?" ”

"Yes, from Tongluo Village, it's a carpenter......

is still the man in the previous life, and He Peier couldn't listen to her aunt's words at all, because she knew that her cousin in the previous life had a bad life when she got married, her husband liked to drink, and she also had a tendency to domestic violence, and she miscarried her cousin after getting drunk once.

After a year of marriage, my cousin went back to her parents' house with her things, and she also went to her aunt's house to see her cousin once.

At that time, my cousin's face was yellow and her face was dull, which was different from the lively and energetic girl now, and she was like two people.

Later, until she left here, her cousin's marriage did not come to fruition.

Her marriage with her husband dragged on like that, after all, divorce in this era is a fatal blow to a woman.
