Chapter 55 Thunder Nest

And Wu Zhaodi has no interest in this either.

She looked in the direction of the west room and lowered her voice, "Shen Jun, do you think the second sister-in-law will get up to cook tomorrow?"

"Who knows, I'm not the second sister-in-law. Well, don't talk about it and rest."

Shen Jun was a little impatient after a tiring day.

Wu Zhaodi curled her lips, "Anyway, I won't be cooking tomorrow."

Then he muttered something unknown, and a moment later, the main house of the Shen family fell into silence.

In the early morning of the next day, the sun was hidden in the clouds, and the air was even hotter, as if a storm was really coming.

Shen Yu got up early and stood in front of the door, frowning at the thatched cottage where he, his wife and children had lived for decades.

It seems that if there is another storm, the roof of this thatched house will be blown off.

Even if they were separated today, they wouldn't be able to move out of here right away, and the storm was coming soon.

He called out Shen Jiawen and Shen Qingshan. He was directing from below, and the two sons were fixed with straw ropes on the roof.

At this time the sky was bright and clear.

There was no movement in the main house or kitchen.

Shen Yu looked in the direction of the main room and shook his head slightly. If he guessed correctly, Ji Daju had a hundred reasons to avoid today's housework.

Sure enough.

Ji Daju pretended to be sick and couldn't get up from the bed. She lay there groaning, aching now and then, but she couldn't get up to cook anyway.

Wu Zhaodi's face is thicker than Ji Daju's.

The second sister-in-law can do this, so what is she afraid of?

So she also said that her ankle was not in good condition and it was extremely uncomfortable...

So everyone looked in the direction of the big house and Chen Li.

Just when everyone thought that the three siblings would stand up to defend Chen Li again, Shen Yu said, "From now on, there will be rules for the Shen family's housework. Which room's turn it is?" In any room where women can’t cook, there are still men, and if men can’t do it, there are still children…”

Old Man Shen and Old Mrs. Shen looked at Shen Yu in shock. For so many years, the eldest son had accepted everything and never dared to refute them. He could not speak when things happened at home. His sense of presence was really low.

What happened today?

How do you say these words?

Shen Mingxi grabbed Chen Li and raised her voice and said, "My dad is right, we will do this from now on. If anyone has any objections, then we will cook separately."

Looking at the big room huddled together, Old Man Shen and Old Mrs. Shen were unexpectedly silent.

At this time, the weather became increasingly gloomy, just like everyone's mood at this moment.

Shen Jiawen, who had been silent for the whole time, then said, "There is also the task of carrying water. Qingshan and I have been carrying water for our family since we were 10 years old. The third child is already thirteen, so we can do this work. But we are Brother, don’t say we bully him, he just needs to carry two buckets of water back every day.”

You must know that this large family of more than 20 people uses a lot of water a day.

Every morning, Shen Jiawen and Shen Qingshan would pick up more than a dozen barrels.

No matter spring, summer or autumn or winter, there is never any delay.

Therefore, no matter what Mrs. Shen cries and shouts next, it already sounds boring, just a few words come and go.

The end result is -

Ji Daju got up to cook. She had nothing wrong with her, so she couldn't let her husband or Bao Yatou cook.

Shen Qingshan called Sanwazi out, took him by the collar, and put the pole on his shoulders.

The three cousins ​​went out to fetch water.

Shen Hai looked at Shen Yu standing in the morning light in surprise. He didn't know why, but his heart suddenly skipped a beat. It seemed that from now on, the Shen family would never be able to go back to the past.

His eyes gradually gathered a malicious look.

If Dafang continues like this, their second and third bedrooms will have less and less say. Isn't it obvious? From this morning, it can be seen that Dafang is dominating them. So in the future, if he Shen Hai becomes rich, won't Shen Yu's family follow suit?

That won't work!

Ever since he was little, he has only been able to take advantage. There is no reason for others to take advantage of him.

It seems that we really need to find a way to separate their family.

Chen Hai glanced at Shen Yu again, then turned and walked towards the main house.

A heavy rainstorm lasted for three days and three nights.

Except for wheat, the crops in the field had drunk enough rainwater. Just when everyone was a little worried, the rapid rainstorm finally stopped.

The water in Fengquan River rose ten centimeters and spread to the beach.

In the past three days, although the Shen family was noisy, they surprisingly persisted in taking turns doing housework.

After two rounds, Ji Daju and Wu Zhaodi became much more honest.

It seems that he knows that Dafang is determined this time and they can't take any advantage. Mrs. Shen was quick to stop what they said, and for the time being it was just words.

For the first time, they were afraid of the people in Dafang.

So the atmosphere in the Shen family became a little weird.

However, the Shen Mingxi brothers and sisters didn't take it to heart, because the heavy rain came quickly and urgently, and because thunder continued for the past three days, they started preparing to go into the mountains when the weather cleared.

There was not much work at the brigade headquarters for the time being, and because it had rained heavily in the past three days, a loudspeaker was announced early in the morning that the members could rest at home for two days.

This is also for the sake of the villagers in Shantun, Mr. Shen.

Because at this time every year, after a thunderstorm, a mushroom called Leiwozi will appear on the mountain of Longpan Mountain.

The scientific name is the four-spore mushroom, and in some places it is also called the mushroom.

Most of them appear after thunderstorms. They are piled in clusters. The mushrooms are thick, delicious and nutritious.

Wash the freshly picked Leiwozi, blanch them, and stir-fry them with Chinese cabbage. Add chili peppers inside and serve them with freshly fished sorghum rice. It is simply a delicacy in the world.

If you have the conditions at home, steam a pot of white rice and put a few slices of pork belly in the mushrooms. It is definitely the toughest dish.

If you can’t eat fresh mushrooms anymore, you can also dry them and use them to stew chicken in winter.

Different from the grassy smell of straw mushrooms, when Leiwozi is stewed with chicken, Leiwozi is more fragrant than chicken.

So the heavy rain had just stopped, and it was time to go into the mountains to collect thunder.

The three brothers Shen Mingxi and Chen Li go to pick it every year.

If you're lucky, you'll get a big basket. If you're not lucky, you'll get a few kilograms, but you can still get a few dishes.

But most of them ended up in the second and third bedrooms.

People who work hard to climb mountains and ridges to collect mushrooms can’t eat more than a few bites.

Especially at this time last year, they picked two large baskets and dried them in the sun because of the good weather. But so far, Shen Mingxi has not seen a single mushroom.

Not to mention eating it.

Don't know where they all went.

There is no shortage of wicker baskets at home, and the three siblings are planning to carry one each. Shen Qingshan follows because he wants to see if he can get some food back from the mountains.

Mountain fruits and other things are almost ripe at this time.

And Shen Mingxi has his own plan.
