"This time we don't make hot pepper and radish. The shopkeeper sent a message saying that he wanted to make some dried radish strips. It's just in line with my mind. It's the sweetest thing to fry bacon. Let's go. Let's take the basket and pull the radish."

After she said this, she yelled to Lin Qingsong, who was working with a hoe in the hall: "son of three, when you come down to the garden, help us pick out radishes. Then, remember to chop some more firewood. Today is seventeen, or it will be new year's day in a few days. You have to chop all those firewood."

"Ah, mother, I know. I'll go later." Lin Qingsong answers in the hall.

Zhu Caihua is washing dishes in the kitchen while Lin Yuzhu is helping to look at the two kids.

Liu Sanniang and Deng Jinchai change their clogs and go to the vegetable garden. Lin Qingsong comes out of the hall and finds an ax to chop firewood in a corner of the yard.

It was on such a quiet and comfortable afternoon that two figures appeared outside the fence of the Lin family.

"Yuzhu." Zhu cao'er saw her daughter sitting on the steps, holding a flower shed, embroidering flowers, and looking after the children.

Lin Qingsong raised his head: "Er Bo, er Bo Niang." He dropped the axe and came out.

Lin Yuzhu put down his needle and thread, stood on the steps and cried with a smile: "Dad, mom, it's so nice that you're back."

She rushed to the kitchen and called, "sister-in-law, our parents are back."

Zhu Caihua sticks out her head from the door of the kitchen and shouts out to them. She cooks some water to make a cup of hot tea for them.

Lin Qingsong went to the garden to call Liu Sanniang and Deng Jinchai back.

"Are they really back?" Liu Sanniang was quite surprised.

"Didn't he say that he was left by his master for the Spring Festival?"

Zhu cao'er went up and explained, "Hello, sister-in-law, I was left by my boss to help me in the new year. Just because I was thinking about the children in my heart, I took advantage of the fact that I was not too busy. With the permission of my boss, we decided to come back, just in a hurry."

Liu Sanniang said with a smile: "it's time to come back and have a look. Sit in the room quickly."

She invited Lin Shunshui and his wife to sit in the main room. Lin Yuzhu came in with Lin Yingxi and kowtowed to his grandparents.

Zhu cao'er had to take her daughter to look around again and again.

"It's getting more and more watery."

Lin Yuzhu replied: "my aunt loves me so much that I'm not allowed to do heavy work. I live a rich life with my aunt. If I don't have anything to do, I'll help you to have a look at the children. My sister-in-law and sister-in-law are competing to do it. On the contrary, I'm tired and lazy."

Zhu cao'er reached out and touched her head: "you can steal music. By the way, according to you, your embroidery work is good?"

Lin Yuzhu quickly showed her her embroidery work, and said that her needlework could not be regarded as the best, but it was much better than that at the beginning. Next year, her embroidery work will surely rise in price.

Zhu cao'er liked to hear this and asked Lin Yuzhu, "are you at ease today

Liu Sanniang answered: "I just came here a few days ago. Today you stay here for dinner. I'll ask Jin Chai to chop two Jin of meat."

She knew what Zhu cao'er was thinking. It was all her daughter. She didn't have time to talk to her.

Liu Sanniang left the main room and saw that Lin Shunshui was helping Lin Qingsong pick up firewood. She called Deng Jinchai and took out a beautiful rose red peony purse from her arms. She took out a copper plate and counted it: "now it's almost new year's day. It's estimated that the price of meat has gone up. Here's a bunch of money. Take it and cut two Jin of meat. Then you can buy some stewed vegetables and a pot of rice wine."

"Mother, I remember." Deng Jinchai took the copper plate and bent down to pick up the little fish. Her family was busy, so she decided to take the little fish to the town.

"Niang, my sister-in-law has come here with a woman. I don't know what to choose."

Curious, Deng Jinchai waited by the fence door for a while.

After listening to Quan, she invited her first, but she knew that although the Lin family lived in a dilapidated place, it was because of something that it was not convenient for them to build a new house or wear gold and silver.

Deng Jinchai asked her why she came at this time, and then asked her why her sister-in-law didn't come.

After listening to Quandu's reply one by one, he said that the basket was filled with fireworks. Her young master came back and gave some to her girls. Lin Anxin asked her to send some back to her mother's house for her nephew.

When Deng Jinchai heard of the speech, she liked her sister-in-law more and more. Compared with her second sister-in-law, who didn't see her twice a year, she was very fond of her sister-in-law.

Can't help but sigh, his mother's family to do so good little girl to Dian out?

Liu Sanniang smiles and reaches for the good material that Tingquan handed her. She asks her mother-in-law to put the basket in the hall.

"Originally, I wanted to send Qingsong to pick up his sister and master Su for dinner. When you come, I won't send him to come again. Go back and take a message for them to have dinner."

Listen to spring busy should, followed Liu Sanniang met Lin Shunshui couple.

Zhu cao'er is used to being in a rich family. I don't know that Lin Anxin's life today is better than that when she goes to see her boss this year.From his arms, he took out a few copper coins and put them into Tingquan: "take them to buy a cup of tea."

Listen to spring don't, Zhu cao'er must give her, say is the first time to meet, after can't.

After listening to Quan's leaving, Liu Sanniang asked why she wanted to do this. The little girl was bought to work, and the master didn't give her monthly silver. What would she do to send her to run?

Zhu cao'er said with a smile, "all the rich people have these rules. Is it because there is no such rule in our hometown?"

"No, it's not the first time she's been here. She often comes back with my daughter. You can't get used to this bad habit. Besides, you earn hard money." Liu Sanniang can't accept the reward for the little girls at this time.

Zhu cao'er opened his mouth and didn't say anything at last.

Liu Sanniang called Lin Qingsong and asked him to catch a fat chicken and kill it.

"Your sister likes chicken best. She says it's thief fragrance."

She didn't know that Lin Anxin had never eaten native chicken in her last life. What's more, she was fed with grains, vegetables and leaves. The chicken was so tight and sweet that she would like to eat it all at once.

Lin Qingsong should go and catch the chicken.

Not to mention the bustle of the Lin family, it's like the Spring Festival.

Deng Jinchai went all the way to town with little fish in her arms.

Her mother-in-law gave her fifty Wen, which was enough for her to cut two catties of meat. There were some smoked cured fish at home. She thought that her younger brother had collected a lot of loach recently, so she went back to her mother's house to see if she could ask her third brother for some loach to treat her guests.

Because Lin Qingshan will make money, Lin Anxin is also generous. Although she is not as well dressed as the young grandmother of a rich family, she is also a good jacket made of fine cotton. Besides, she can also wear it in different colors. When Ji Chunhua sees it, she is very happy though she doesn't say it well.

When you go back to your mother's home in Shangtang village, you have to pass by Lin Shunfeng's door.

When Deng Jinchai passed by, the door of his house was open. At a glance, she had a panoramic view of the courtyard.

Lin Shunfeng's house is a mud brick house. Whether it's the courtyard wall or the house wall, it's been a long time. The walls are full of holes, big and small. Lin Shunfeng's family didn't mention that they wanted to mend these holes. Fortunately, there aren't many holes, so the house should not be very windy.

At this time, Lin Shunhe was on the roof, holding a pitchfork, lifting the rotten old straw on the roof. Mr. Lin was standing on the table, and Mr. Lin Fang was standing on the ground. They were helping to deliver fresh dry straw.

Every time Lin Shunhe lifted a clean roof, he covered it with new straw and spread it flat.

Deng Jinchai is angry when she looks at it. She has not had a good breath all the year round when she is in charge of the family. Her father-in-law has never helped to take care of the family's work, and has come to work as a long-term worker for her uncle's family. He doesn't know how much he loves his son.

She wanted to call Lin Shunhe home for dinner on the way, but she finally gritted her teeth and turned to leave. She simply couldn't see.

"Eh, milk, did the gold hairpin pass just now?"

Niu jiao'er came out of the house with his sons.

"Jinchai? Just past our door? Dead mother-in-law, there is a shameful mother-in-law, who is also not good at learning. Shun he, you see, your daughter-in-law is a good example. If your mother-in-law doesn't look at us both, she is not filial to the younger generation. "

Mr. Lin was also quite dissatisfied, and then said, "the younger generation should look like the younger generation. If they don't learn well, they can't learn well. They don't have to make people laugh at our family, jiao'er. Why don't they go to the vegetable garden and pull some vegetables back soon? Do they have to wait for your milk to do the work? Can't you see it's already noon? "

The cow turned his mouth and regretted that he should not have picked this time.

Standing on the roof, Lin Shunhe could see further. He saw Deng Jinchai carrying little fish to Shangtang village.

"She's carrying a baby. Maybe she didn't pay attention to this side."

He feels very tired now, not only for people, but also for his heart!

A good life, living, how to change the flavor of it?

"Hum, if you want me to tell you, it must be Ji Chunhua who muttered something behind her back. Jinchai, the dead girl, used to have a sweet mouth. When she saw me, it was before and after my grandmother."

Lin Fang didn't even think about it. She has been working in heaven and earth all these years, and has kept the younger generation far away from her.

"Shunhe, what did your parents say to you last time?"

"Dad, what did you say?" Lin Shunhe knew that he really didn't want to mention it, but his parents seized it and refused to let it go.

"What else can it be, that is to say, when the dead mother-in-law's business is over, the children are all big. I see that she doesn't take care of you wholeheartedly. Why don't you change to a younger one, and I can't expect your daughters-in-law to take care of you when I'm old with your father? When Liu Sanniang arrived at night, she put on a stepmother's face and threw it to whom? I'm very angry when I see her foxy face. "

Lin Fang never liked Liu Sanniang. She always thought that her daughter-in-law's heart was toward her own mother's home.

But never thought, why? No mother, no father?

When she married to her family, she should be a cow and a horse for her Lin family. It's just that her husband and wife have a good relationship. But Mr. Lin and Mr. Lin Fang are mixed in. Moreover, she has never cared for her daughters-in-law as an elder.Master Lin is the most ruthless. He is the one who can push Lin Fang to the front and be a villain. Now there is no outsider. He just hears him say, "your mother is right. If she marries us, she has to serve her father-in-law, have children and take care of you."
