Chapter 338 338, bad habits
After two days of recuperation, Li Chunmei took Liu Mai to the Qi family courtyard.
"Come in and sit."
Shen Yuerong saw the mother and daughter and immediately greeted them to enter the house.
"Sister Shen, Mai and I are here to thank you. Mai was still recovering two days ago, so I didn't come to express my thanks in time. Today I can go to the ground, so our mother and daughter came to thank you, especially Xiao Qin. thanks to her."
Li Chunmei's words were sincere, and her expression was moving. Until now, when she thinks back, she can't help but be afraid. If Xiao Qin hadn't rescued her at that time, would they have buried the wheat like that?
Obviously there is still a chance of life, but because of their ignorance, they ruined the chance of her daughter's life. I feel chills on my back just thinking about it.
Fortunately, her daughter is a lucky one, and even the doctor said it was a miracle that she was rescued by Xiao Qin in time.
It is also because of the death of the eldest daughter that she has completely stimulated the emotions that she has suppressed for more than ten years. She has always upheld the filial piety and duty of being a daughter-in-law, and she has also managed the affairs outside the home for the Liu family without complaint. .
Over the years, their husband and wife were like old scalpers, working non-stop and farming, never letting up, but in the end, they still didn't get a good word from the old lady, and even took advantage of their husband and wife to go out to work, careless Take the man to their house to meet her daughter.
She admits that she does pay more attention to caring for her younger son than her daughter. After all, they are the only couple, but that doesn't mean she doesn't love her daughter at all.
No matter how poor their family was, she didn't plan to sell her daughter cheaply in such a way.
So this time, she really couldn't bear it anymore, even if her future reputation was not good, she would not regret breaking up with her mother-in-law.
Although she didn't get much, she was extremely satisfied and felt that her whole body was much more relaxed.
The couple had no extra money to build another house, so they could only live in their original house for the time being, and then built a simple grass hut on one side of the yard as a stove, even if they set up another stove. pass.
For the Daqi family, she is grateful from the bottom of her heart, not only because they saved her daughter, but also because of them, she made up her mind to split up the family.
If it weren't for this incident, she still didn't know how long their family would work hard and bear no complaints, and I'm afraid she would have been in the days of depression and patience.
"Auntie, what about Sister-in-law Qi?" Liu Mai looked around, but saw no one in the hall.
Shen Yuerong greeted with a smile, "Sit down first, Huanhuan and Xiaoqing are in the backyard, I'll call them."
In the past few days, the sweet potatoes in the private plot in the backyard have grown branches and leaves, and the potatoes planted in another plot have also raised a green leaf.
The crops in the two fields are growing very well, and the weeds in the fields are also growing faster.
This made everyone in the Qi family once thought that the soil of the two fields of their family was good. The potatoes planted in the same period, the potatoes in the vegetable field in the village did not grow as well as theirs.
Everyone in the Qi family was very happy and felt a sense of accomplishment. They even joked about this: It turns out that growing crops is not so difficult.
Qin Tianru, who created all this, silently hid his merits and fame.
At this moment, Qin Tianru and Qi Qing, sister and brother, were weeding in the private plot in the backyard.
"Huanhuan, Mai and her mother have come to our house, you should rest for a while."
Shen Yuerong came to the backyard and shouted to the three people who were digging in the weeds.
"Uh ok, we'll be right there."
So, the three of them went to the sink to wash their hands, cleaned up the dirt on their lower bodies, and dressed neatly before entering the main room.
"Hello~" Qin Tianru greeted with a smile.
"Hey, hello Xiao Qin."
"Sister-in-law Qi."
Li Chunmei and Liu Mai Mai immediately got up to respond.
"Everyone sit down." Shen Yuerong raised her hand to signal.
After was seated, Li Chunmei put the basket by her hand on the wooden table in the middle, and she lifted the lid of the bamboo basket.
"Sister Shen, Xiao Qin, this is a little thought from our family, I hope you don't dislike it!"
Shen Yuerong quickly rejected, "Oh, what are you doing, it's just a little effort, there's no need for this, you can bring back this basket of eggs to nourish the body with wheat, we have eggs at home."
Li Chunmei put the bamboo cover on and pushed it directly towards Shen Yuerong, "Sister Shen, I know your family is not short of these things, but Xiao Qin saved my daughter's life, it's not an exaggeration to send more things.
It's just that our family's current conditions are limited, and we can't give too many gifts, and I guess you are aware of our family's affairs, so I won't be swollen and fat, but in the future, if your family needs our help, We must not shirk. "
Liu Mai Mai also said sincerely, "Sister Qi, please accept it. This is a life-saving grace. We also feel that this gift is too thin. If you don't accept it, we will feel sorry for it."
Shen Yuerong looked at Huanhuan and wanted her to make the decision. She could see that the mother and daughter were determined to give gifts today.
The reason why she refused just now was because she thought that they had just separated. Life is difficult now. There are at least twenty or thirty eggs in this basket.
Her family really doesn’t lack this food, so I’m so embarrassed to accept their eggs.
Qin Tianru sighed: "Mother, accept it."
Hearing this, Li Chunmei and Liu Maimai instantly showed smiles, and their hearts were relieved.
Afterwards, everyone chatted for a while, and Li Chunmei took Liu Mai home with him. Before leaving, Qin Tianru deliberately wrapped two oil paper bags with some biscuits and snacks inside.
Qin Tianru's attitude was very firm, unable to do so, so the mother and daughter had to take it.
At this point, the farce of the Liu family has subsided, but the village has begun to be lively.
I don’t know if it was the Liu family that inspired the villagers. To be precise, the fact that Liu Maimai was hired at a high price was like some kind of signal from the Victory Production Brigade.
In the past few days, the village has started to look at people frequently, and the strange thing is that all the people who are looked at are girls, that is to say, the families with daughters in the brigade are looking for in-laws for their daughters.
And these girls who are looked at have a wide range of ages, ranging from fifteen to sixteen years old, down to eight or nine years old.
Some people are serious about dating each other, and some people are really crazy. She is a little girl who looks like a child, but she is put on the show, looking for buyers everywhere like selling goods.
And this kind of little girl is obviously a betrothal, but it is actually bought by the man to be a child bride. Boys from this kind of family will have some problems more or less.
Even though it is now a new country, the bad habits of these remote places cannot be eradicated.
