The two parties sat down at the table again, and discussed the matters of getting married. The Fei family spent a lot of time, asking this and that, and talking about the dowry. After leaving, she immediately lost face again.
Liu Xianglan was very upset, she had been hanged for so long without saying anything, and now she still wanted to marry Shaochun back to their family for such a little thing, it was really an abacus that could be heard outside the village.
Although Xu Shaochun felt uncomfortable in her heart, she was so stimulated by Xu He's marriage that he was muddle headed. Now that she only saw the marriage being settled, she was more happy than unhappy.
Seeing that her daughter was so useless, Liu Xianglan was annoyed. If it wasn't for looking at her daughter's good life in the future, or just finding a random family, she would get more gift money than the Fei's family.
There was a sense of failure in her heart.
At this time, the chickens in the yard were still clucking, the ducks were also quacking, and the pigs in the pigsty in the backyard were not fed, and they were already banging on the door of the pen, making loud bangs. She was so annoyed that she was about to pull her hair out.
"Why didn't you let the chicken out so early in the morning? The ducks have to go to the river!" Liu Xianglan was so loud that she subconsciously wanted to scold Xu He. There was a lot of mess left, so she had to turn to Xu Shaochun: "The pig food is not cooked, this pig is about to jump out of the pen!"
Xu Shaochun felt that her mother's complexion had changed so quickly, and she felt aggrieved. She was obviously happy when He ge’er got married, but now she was not happy when her marriage was done.
There was a pile of shit in the chicken and duck pen. These animals stink to death, even if she knew how to do it, how could she be willing to do it.
Seeing the person standing still, Liu Xianglan couldn't help cursing: " Hurry up! I'm too busy all by myself! What can I do if I raise you but you don't even know how to help the family."
Xu Shaochun's eyes were red, and he shyly went to release the ducks, as if she was afraid of stepping on shit, and Liu Xianglan got angry with her cautious appearance.
It was really annoying. When Xu He was here, he never felt that there were so many trivial tasks at home. As soon as this person left, she had to get up to cook before dawn in the morning.
She really regretted it now, if she knew that, she wouldn’t be greedy for the few thousand copper coins and married Xu He so early, even if she had to pay a little more tax every year, it would be better than busying herself without touching the ground.
Xu He went to deliver things to Zhang Shicheng's house with Zhang Fangyuan. The couple went all the way there, they sat and talked for a while before returning.
Zhang Shicheng and his wife were very happy that they were married, and they talked a few words so that they wouldn’t became annoying. The newlyweds were left to live on their own, and there were still many opportunities to meet in the future.
"Although the land has been planted by fourth uncle, we still have to open up two acres of land to grow some vegetables." Xu He said, moving the basket on his arm: "Auntie gave me a lot of vegetable seeds. Go back and scatter it in the field."
"Let's not be busy today, let's just rest for a day."
Xu He said, "It doesn't take much effort to sow the seeds early and grow up the seedlings early."
Zhang Fang Yuan was helpless: "Okay, I'll go with you."
Xu He raised his eyebrows: "I can do this by myself, why don't you go looking for livestock?"
Zhang Fangyuan just wanted to cling to people, but Xu He was a hard worker. He sighed slightly: "Can I go early tomorrow morning?"
Seeing this, Xu He shut his mouth, he knew maybe he was bored, but he just wanted Zhang Fangyuan to feel that it wasn't wasted effort and money to marry him back.
"Then let's go to sow the vegetable seeds together, and we can go up the mountain to dig some wild vegetables in the afternoon."
Then Zhang Fangyuan became happy: "Okay, take the hunting tools up the mountain in the afternoon, the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, maybe you can get something."
The two went home happily, one carrying a hoe and the other carrying vegetable seeds to the field. Zhang Fangyuan was afraid that the sun would burn Xu He, so he gave him a small straw hat to wear.
When Zhang Fangyuan loosened the soil, Xu He counted the vegetable seeds. There were many melons, fruits and vegetables suitable for sowing in spring. He got eggplants, pumpkins, cabbages, etc. from fourth aunt.
Zhang Fangyuan said before that the scallions he planted in the Xu’s family grew well, and he specially asked for some.
He found that Zhang Fangyuan liked to eat fried pork with green onions very much, and he could eat three bowls of rice.
"Ah, you two still come out to work in the field today?" The passing folks couldn't help but stop chatting when they saw the two together.
"Yeah, grow some vegetables."
The folks saw that Zhang Fangyuan was quite protective of Xu He when he came out with his husband today, thinking that the butcher's house must belong to Xu He in the future, so she made friends with Xu He: " He ge’er, Auntie has the seeds of loofah, bitter gourd, garlic, chrysanthemum, and chili peppers at home, come and get what you need.”
“Thank you auntie, I will definitely come.”
The woman agreed with a smile, then she carried the basket on her back and walked to her own land.
Zhang Fangyuan buried his head and shoveled the ground, and there was a smile in his eyes when he heard this.
In the distance, Xu Shaochun, who was forced to carry a basket on her back, went to her own field to chop cabbage to feed the pigs. Seeing the quiet and busy couple, although they were not joking, it also made people felt that there was a breath of newlywed happiness.
Thinking of her own marriage, she couldn't help her eyes turning red.
She gritted her teeth, which one newlywed was not in harmony, and it depended on the long-term life, she didn’t believe that with her appearance she wouldn’t be as good as Xu He.
