"No, I remember. There are one grid after another in it." Afraid that she would not believe it, Deng Jin opened the top lid.
Lin Anxin glanced at it, a bit like a modern candy plate.
"It's not supposed to be edible, is it?"
"Well, that's what my grandmother said." Deng Jingu answered as he scrubbed.
"How do you remember to find this thing out?"
Deng Jingu winked at her: "today, I went out early, and my business is good. I secretly hid a penny. My father is ill, and the family expenses are getting bigger and bigger. But you are my daughter-in-law. My mother can't take care of you. I always have to take care of you."
Lin Anxin nibbles at her little finger. Does it mean to give her pocket money secretly?
"It's not as high as a vase. It's on the top of a cupboard. It doesn't attract people's attention on weekdays. I'll give you a few copper plates every month. You can keep them or use them when you go back to your mother's house, or buy some needles and thread you need."
Lin Anxin looks up at Deng Jingu. To be fair, a man of Deng Jingu's temperament is a good husband, but
She just can't treat Deng Jingu as a man
"Oh, how beautiful!"
As Deng Jingu washed away the dust from the top, it suddenly brightened people's eyes. The round porcelain box with the moon white background and the ink color magpie on the branch just came out of the water and looked very fresh.
"Eh, how come the heads of these crows and magpies are all in the same direction?"
Lin Anxin couldn't understand the ancient text on the porcelain cover. Blinking, he reached out and pointed to the top of the head case: "can such a box be a pair?"
Deng Jingu scratched his head: "I don't know. I haven't heard from granny. I don't understand. Would you like to ask my parents?"
"I don't think so." Lin Anxin felt that there was no need to ask. After asking, he knew what a couple could do. He said that they were handed down from the previous dynasty!
"I'll clean the water for you, and you'll hide the copper plate here. I'll cover it with a dark cloth, and I won't be able to drill any more." Deng Jingu knew that Ji Chunhua would not want to give Lin anxinhua the copper plate he handed in.
"Do you really give me brass?" When Deng Jingu put the hidden copper plate into her hand, Lin Anxin was really surprised.
Although she didn't care about the Deng family, she knew that the Deng family had a hard time these days.
"Well, take it and put it away. It doesn't matter if you get a few pennies less each month. You can't do business with these pennies." Deng Jin looked at the upper room with a guilty heart. He secretly decided that he would go to more villages, sell more needles, and earn more copper.
Lin Anxin holds the money tightly in her hand. In her eyes, the money really can't do anything, but it is of great significance.
She is thinking: no matter where she is in the future, as long as she has meat to eat, she will let Deng Jingu have soup to drink.
For his simple and clean heart!
Lin Anxin waited for Deng Jingu to wipe the porcelain clean and dry it. Then he put the money in. Deng Jingu solemnly put the porcelain on the top of the cupboard, making it invisible, and took a rag to cover his head.
His look made Lin feel at ease for a moment. He felt as if he had not only helped her hide a penny, but also completed some important ceremony.
Deng Jingu jumped down from the stool and looked up around the cupboard to the top of the cupboard. When he found that he could not see it, he was relieved.
"All right!"
"If only this pot could give birth to money." Lin Anxin is laughing and joking.
"Well, it will certainly be. You'll save a lot in the future. Looking at the copper plates, you'll be very happy." Deng Jingu looked at the top of the cabinet with firm eyes.
He must earn a lot of copper, so that he can pay off his uncle's debt and make Siya live a good life.
"I didn't think so far, just thought, if this porcelain basin is a good thing, then the golden drum brother is not developed."
Deng Jingu felt that Lin Anxin's words made him happy. He reached out and touched her brain melon seeds. He said with a smile, "if you really get a lot of money, I'll ask a little girl to wait on you, so that you can live a more comfortable life."
Lin an loves to hear this. She can't do these farm jobs. Naturally, she is looking forward to being served.
In modern times, she lives in a house of more than 100 square meters. She can also afford to work part-time for cooking. She has a car to walk in and out. Who is not the daughter of a big family!
Without the days when Zhou Changgen and his wife came to ask for debts, Ji Chunhua was in a better mood.
If you want to know how Lin Anxin knew it, you can tell by the food on the table.
"Come on, four girls, eat more chives, scrambled eggs, golden drum, and hold a chopstick for golden lock."
Ji Chunhua's words have just begun. Deng Jingu has already put a chopstick in the bowl for Lin Anxin. Only then can she make up the words behind her.
Deng Jingu had some doubts: "Niang, have we made a fortune? Why has the food been so much better these two days? "
Ji Chunhua spat and scolded: "what's the fortune? My mother is waiting for you to earn a lot of money. It's not because there are two patients in the family. Your father and Siya should have a good life. You are also working hard outside. Golden lock is just the time to grow up. I think about it. The more difficult it is at home, the more I can't treat you badly. Only after eating can I have strength and eat well You can get better soon. "Speaking of this, Ji Chunhua talks about her family's affairs and tells them that Deng Jinling's two Mu dry land has been returned to her home for her to plant. She also says that she can take advantage of this time to clean up the land and scatter the Brassica seeds. Next year, she will collect the seeds and sell them to the oil press. She can also exchange some copper plates.
The Brassica oil in her mouth is what modern people call rapeseed oil.
So after three or two days, Zhou Changgen came to the door again.
It rained in the morning. Deng Jingu repaired the loading basket at home. He would not go out until the rain stopped.
When Zhou Changgen came into the yard, Deng Jingu was sitting on the steps to mend the basket. Seeing him coming, he called out: "uncle."
"Oh, Jingu, you didn't go out today?"
"It's raining and there's no business, so I'll repair the basket." Since Deng Dalang's accident, Deng Jingu seems to have grown up overnight.
Talk, work, more mature!
"Ah, it's raining a lot less now. I'm afraid it's going to stop later. By the way, Huaishu village is two villages away. There's someone else doing a wedding today. When it doesn't rain, do you want to pick up the goods to go there?"
When Deng Jingu heard this, he suddenly felt energetic. He put down his bamboo basket and rushed to the kitchen. Ji Chunhua, who was boiling water in the kitchen to entertain Zhou Changgen, yelled: "Niang, I'm going out to do business."
"Ah, I see. Be careful when you walk. Don't worry." Ji Chunhua looks out again. It's cold today. If Deng Dalang doesn't have an accident, she won't agree with Deng Jingu to go out and make money.
Dengjin drum should be a, and went to the East chamber to see Lin Anxin.
Lin Anxin is getting better these days. Seeing that she is taking medicine, Deng Jingu said with a smile, "listen to my mother, you can stop taking medicine after a few more days."
"Really?" Lin Anxin's eyes are bright. She hates to eat this herbal soup. Every time she gives her bile a bitter taste.
"Are you going out again? It's a bit cool today. Wear more! "
"Well!" Deng Jingu laughed more and more happily.
No wonder the young men in the village want to get a daughter-in-law home early.
Deng Jingu went out. Lin Anxin felt sleepy soon after taking the medicine. There was a tranquilizer in the medicine. After taking it, he wanted to sleep.
From time to time, she would sleep in bed.
Ji Chunhua cooked sugar water to entertain Zhou Changgen.
After Zhou Changgen took the bowl, he nodded with a smile and looked at the east wing.
Ji Chunhua frowned and sighed unhappily.
Zhou Changgen was a little unhappy and said with a straight face: "spring flower, the golden drum and the golden lock are the meat that falls from you. By then, the Deng family will be rich and rich. What kind of daughter-in-law are you afraid of
He fell in love with Deng Jingu early, but Lin Anxin, the child's daughter-in-law, is in this family. How can his family marry him as a child?
It's impossible for Zhou Changgen to agree, but he can't bear the fat.
The mother-in-law of Deng's family is happier than anyone if she can take away the child daughter-in-law of Deng's family.
"Cousin, I..." Ji Chunhua droops her head. When her family is in trouble, she has no arrogance.
"OK, I'll ask you, are you willing or not? Do you want to have a good life, take care of Dalao's wounds, and let both Jingu and Jinsuo be able to hold their heads up in the village, with the wind and the scenery shining, or do you want to continue to live a more miserable life? Your family has no property. You should burn high incense just by relying on the half big boy of Jingu to support your family, instead of starving to death. Thank you all Bodhisattvas for your care."
Zhou Changgen was very impolite and forced Ji Chunhua to make a choice.
"It's not dead yet. If you don't want to, I'll go and return the letter."
"Cough!" Deng Dalang's cough came from the room.
Ji Chunhua was shocked by this and said, "I'll go to the East chamber to have a look."
Zhou Changgen took a bowl and blew it, then squinted and took a sip. Although it was very hot, the sugar water was good, and there were no less spring flowers.
In his heart, he is very satisfied, and Ji Chunhua is very popular.
He took the bowl of hot sugar water and walked into the room.
"Dalao, are you better? I don't think you look much different from that day
If Lin is at ease here, he will be booing him. A few days ago, he came to the house, and the food in the house was very meagre. He also said that he had grown meat. These days, Ji Chunhua was willing to put oil in. He also implied that the food of the Deng family was too poor.
Deng Dalang couldn't hear what he said, but now he's asking for Zhou Changgen, so he can only take Zhou Changgen's words as the wind in his ear.
"Cousin, are you here? Come on, have a seat
Without Deng Dalang's greeting, he has found a chair by himself and moved to Deng Dalang's bedside to sit down.
Then, he ate the sugar water slowly, and talked with Deng Dalang without saying a word. It was nothing more than how much his own good farmland would yield this year and how much lotus root pond would yield.
"Thanks to the boss of the restaurant in the town, he was willing to give face to my two sons-in-law, which gave me a good place for lotus root in the pond, and I didn't have to worry about whether it would be broken."
Zhou Changgen also said that when the autumn harvest comes up, he plans to keep it until the beginning of spring. He also said that the lotus root pond will be a big harvest this year.
