Soul Travel: I was bought by the fierce man in the village to farm

She was not in a hurry to clean up the millet later. She went to cut grass as usual. When she locked the door, she heard Yang Cui shout, "Wait a minute and I'll go too."

Mao Xiaosui replied to her. After waiting at the intersection for a while, he saw her coming with a basket on her back and asked, "Is Zhao Hui gone?"

"He's gone." Mao Xiaosui said, "He has to get firewood when he goes back."

"Why did Yunshan send it off?"

Mao Xiaosui knew that this was a roundabout way of asking what they had given Zhao Hui.

She replied, "He was sent out and had no land. Yunshan borrowed a bag of grain and sent it to him."

"No land?" Yang Cui was a little surprised. "The Zhao family gave him no land?"

"No." Mao Xiaosui didn't say that he was not the Zhao family's business. He just said, "This old man always has partiality and impartiality. His honest and friendly demeanor doesn't look like the Zhao family. What they say is what they say. How can he do it?" There is a place for him.”

"Then you still lend him food. He has eaten a lot during the autumn harvest these days, right?" Yang Cui said with a bit of dissatisfaction.

Mao Xiaosui frowned, but still said, "How could he come all the way here and not be allowed to eat?"

She wanted to say something else, but Mao Xiaosui said, "This is what Yunshan means. After all, he is the head of the family."

The implication is, don’t always point fingers at other people’s affairs.

They and the Mao family help each other, and they don't owe anything. If the Wang family has difficulties in the future, they will help. But at other times, everyone should mind their own business and don't stretch their hands too far, and Yang Cui is obviously not Concerned about whether they will be cheated.

Yang Cui didn't talk much after that, and Mao Xiaosui didn't care about her.

After finishing haying for the day, I returned home, drank some water, sat down for a while, and then started working on the millet.

As soon as the millet was thrown into the dustpan, Xiaoxia walked in.

Mao Xiaosui asked her, "You guys packed it up so quickly?"

Lu Xiaoxia smiled and asked, "Where is Yunshan?"

"I'm out, what's the matter?"

Lu Xiaoxia smiled dryly and said, "We... would like to borrow your mule."

Mao Xiaosui laughed, "Li Yunqiang even wants you to do such a thing?"

The dissatisfaction on Lu Xiaoxia's face flashed away, and she didn't respond. She just said, "Yun Qiang is waiting by the river now. Look..."

Mao Xiaosui shook his head, "The mule is not here, Li Yunshan took him out." He added, "Even if he is here, how can he have the nerve to say anything about the relationship between our two families?"

Lu Xiaoxia didn't say anything and walked away with a face on her face.

Mao Xiaosui snorted and cursed in a low voice, "Sure enough, being cheeky is contagious."

_

In the afternoon, Mao Mingzhu came to help her collect the millet, and Wang Qingshan and others supported her in the circle.

The millet is quite clean, just give it a rough cleaning.

Mao Mingzhu said, "Fortunately, we planted beans this year. If we had planted millet, we wouldn't be able to eat it."

“How are your beans doing this year?”

"Okay." Mao Mingzhu said, "It's almost the same as last year."

"That's good." Mao Xiaosui sighed, "My family has one and a half bags less this year than last year."

Mao Mingzhu was also frightened. He looked at her face for a while and said hesitantly, "I have something I want to discuss with you."

Mao Xiaosui nodded, wondering what she was going to say.

Just listen to her say, "Jin'er promised to return your grain last year, and he wanted to ask if it would be okay to return the beans?"

"When I borrowed it, I wanted to sell it for money. Now I remember that I only have two acres of land at home, and I can't grow millet to pay it back."

"Let me ask Li Yunshan." Mao Xiaosui said this, but he felt that Li Yunshan should agree.

After all, the difference between beans and millet is price and taste.

Li Yunshan said at the time that he only wanted grain, and in this way he would return beans or millet...

She quickly asked, "A bag of beans and a bag of millet don't weigh the same, right?"

Mao Mingzhu: "When the time comes to weigh the scales, you first ask Yun Shantong if he agrees. I will not let you lose money."

Listening to the commotion outside, Mao Xiaosui still asked, "Isn't my cousin here? Why not ask directly?"

"He's embarrassed." Mao Mingzhu sighed.

"Okay." Mao Xiaosui responded.

The sun went down and the men in the circle also rested. Mao Mingzhu helped her carry the millet to the side room and went back.

She went to the backyard to pick some old beans and fried them with rice. She also caught two fish from the water tank to make soup. After finishing everything, she sat down next to Li Yunshan and said, "Auntie asked me to ask your cousin today." Is it okay to return the beans? I can’t grow millet on my two acres of land, so I can only return the beans.”

"It's okay." Li Yunshan said, "Beans and millet are not the same weight. Does Auntie mean to pay back by the bag or something?"

"Weigh."

"Okay." Li Yunshan nodded.

A few days after the roof was built, Wang Jin came back with grain.

He smiled and said, "They have all been weighed. You can also weigh them again."

Li Yunshan glanced at the two and a half bags of grain in the car and shook his head, "No need."

Wang Jin took out another money bag from his arms and poured out the money, "One, two or three dollars, that's enough."

Li Yunshan took it and asked him, "Do you have enough food at home? If not, please return a bag first."

"That's enough." Wang Jin said, "The silver is from selling some eggs and last year's millet, and there are a few bags of beans left, which is enough to eat. I will feel at ease if I return it to you."

Li Yunshan accepted it and sent them out.

After they had gone far away, Mao Xiaosui said, "Either it's hard to be a good person. Li Xiao, with an unknown expression on his face, thought we were taking their food for nothing."

"No matter what she does." Li Yunshan didn't take it to heart.

He untied the sack and checked it to make sure it was OK before carrying it to the grain room and putting it away.

Lock the door and say, "I'm going to the mountain."

Mao Xiaosui also wants to cut grass.

The autumn harvest is over and there is still a lot of work to be done.

The work of cutting grass, digging mushrooms and leaves belongs to her, while the work of catching fish, cutting down trees, collecting soap nuts and going to the market belongs to Li Yunshan.

He had been busy for seven or eight days, leaving early and returning late. Early in the morning, when Li Yunshan was planning to go to the market, the sky was cloudy and the wind was blowing loudly.

At first glance, it looks like a cloudy day with no rain or light rain. If the sky is cloudy at this time, it means that the temperature is about to drop.

Li Yunshan didn't care about feeding the livestock, so he planned to carry the clay stove into the main room and install it first to prevent the two children from freezing.

Mao Xiaosui cooked the porridge first, and while he was wiping the mud pot, he went to the backyard to feed the livestock, and packed the fish and rabbits for sale.

After cleaning up, Li Yunshan also set up the clay stove, boiled eggs in a small pot, and set the dining table.

Mao Xiaosui brought the porridge over and told Li Yunshan, "Remember to buy suet, it's bottomed out."

Li Yunshan nodded and went out after eating.

After Mao Xiaosui washed the pot, he gave instructions to the two children and Heizi, and then went out to collect grass with the basket on his back.

After finishing haying in the morning, I went to the mountain to load a basket of leaves back. It was noon when I finished both tasks.

After she simmered the rice in a small pot, she went to light the kang.

When the kang is lit, there will be smoke in the house, and it will be fine after a while.

There is a stove and a kang in the house, so it is very warm.

The two children were not hungry after eating boiled eggs, so Mao Xiaosui grilled dried fish while waiting for Li Yunshan to come back for dinner.

As she was sitting, she suddenly remembered something she had forgotten these days. She stood up suddenly, sat down again quickly, and said angrily, "Look at my stupid mind."

"Mom?" Li Ruyi looked at her.

Mao Xiaosui sighed: No wonder she always felt like she had nothing to do. It turned out that she forgot to plant cabbage. Fortunately, I have fungi at home, so I won’t have to eat only dried beans like last year.
