The autumn wind in early October made song Xintong feel cold to the bone.
Her mind flashed back and forth all the things that had happened since she passed through. She was stubborn and unrestrained, and didn't like to live a life that was bound by morality and etiquette. So all the time, she didn't be a patient and virtuous person as Mrs. Qiu thought.
Song Xintong doesn't know whether she's doing right or wrong in today's uproar. She just doesn't want to be calculated, used or constrained. She wants to protect her two younger brothers and keep the house she's trying to earn. What's wrong with her?
In the past, their family had a bad reputation because of Mrs. Zhang's wanton exaggeration. After so many years, she has added the name of unfilial, rude and rude to the family. The matchmaker's mouth is not white, and I don't know what she will be like tomorrow?
Also, today I was angry by the matchmaker who let me be my concubine. She didn't have a enchanting and flattering face. How could she always let me be my concubine? Next time anyone dares to say that she will be a concubine, she must tear her mouth!
Song Xintong kneaded slightly painful abdomen, big aunt came, really is temper tantrum!
Anyway, that's what she is. Anyway, she has money and can do whatever she wants. Who cares? There are also those people, since they like her money so much, who are worried about the servants who have no work at home.
When the twins came into the yard with their schoolbags on their backs, they saw their elder sister frowning coldly, as if she had a deep hatred with someone. Then they showed a calculating smile and looked very creepy.
Dabao and Xiaobao looked at each other, then walked into the main hall carefully and asked: "sister, what's the matter with you?"
Song Xintong just recovered. Looking at the twins who didn't know when to walk in front of him, he quickly gathered up and put on a smiling face, "why did you come back so early? Is it time already? "
"It's a quarter past you." Dabao sat down next to song Xintong, "sister, who made you unhappy?"
Song Xintong shook his head and breathed, "it's OK."
Xiaobao said, "but my sister doesn't laugh."
"Sister is at home alone, laughing at the cold wind? Are you stupid? " Song Xintong gave a bang and straightened the half sewn winter clothes. "Dabao, come here and try to see if it fits."
Dabao went up and down from the chair to song Xintong, and cleverly tried his clothes, "sister, it's so hot."
"Well, it's just right to wait another month." Song Xintong straightened the clothes, "it fits, it's very good."
"Sister, where's mine?" Xiaobao also pestered, "elder sister, I also want to try."
Song Xintong raised his eyes and looked at him: "you haven't done it yet. When you have done your brother's, I will do it for you."
"Not yet." Xiaobao pursed his mouth and was not happy, "then help Xiaobao do it next time."
"Why?" Song Xintong's cold voice.
"I'll be my brother this time, and I'll be Xiaobao next time." Xiaobao said.
Song Xintong asked: "what about elder sister?"
Xiao Bao was stunned and opened his mouth, but looking at his sister's light eyebrows, he seemed not very happy. He also felt some discomfort in his heart. He lowered his head and pulled his sleeve, and then said with half a sound: "let's do it for her first, Xiao Bao is not in a hurry."
"Sister, don't be angry with me. I just talk about it casually. I don't want to fight with my brother." Xiaobao turned his head and looked at Dabao who didn't speak. "Sister and brother are the best to me."
Song Xintong felt a little more comfortable listening to Xiaobao's flattering words. He looked at Xiaobao who was getting better and better. He couldn't help sighing in his heart. Xiaobao's mouth is very good at talking. When he grows up, he doesn't know how to deceive people?
I also think of the words that Mrs. Qiu said before she left. If they grow up and get married, and their daughter-in-law doesn't like to see her, what should she do?
How did she come back then? Song Xintong thought carefully, what she said was: I will move out and set up my own house by then.
But looking at the two obedient and sensible younger brothers in front of him, song Xintong felt that he had been careful again. He had a long time to go, and he would talk about it later.
Their sister and brother have a good relationship. Although Xiaobao is a bit slippery, she is kind-hearted and independent. She won't be the kind of person who doesn't know right from wrong. Let's talk about it at that time.
In case, when will she find someone to marry herself?
"All right." Song Xintong put his clothes in the basket, "did the master arrange his homework today?"
Dabao said, "silent words."
"Then go back to the yard and write. Elder sister is going to cook for you." Song Xintong stood up with the basket, "what do you want to eat at night?"
"I want to eat fried sausage." Xiaobao said.
Song Xintong said, "I don't have one at home. Let's change it."
"Aunt Xie has it at home." Xiaobao said.
Because the Xie family has been engaged in the food business, so the daily pig water, prawns and snails are constant, but now Song Xintong does not want to go in the past, so coldly said: "eat fish, we haven't eaten for a long time."
"You two go to recite. I'll check after cooking." Song Xintong then turned and went to the kitchen.
It's getting dark early in autumn, so it's a little dark in the room now.
After Song Xintong cooked all the rice in the rice bowl, there was no grain left at home. Tomorrow, he had to go to the county to buy more and save the grain for a winter.
In the original owner's impression, Taohua village has never suffered from famine except for being too poor to afford food. However, song Xintong still thinks it's better to buy more. After all, natural and man-made disasters happen. No one can say for sure.
There is also a cellar at home, which is convenient to hide.
The more song Xintong thought about it, the more reasonable he felt. Moreover, there were more than two cellars. One would store dry goods, and the other would... If there was ice, he could buy more meat on it, and he didn't have to go to the county.
When it snows and freezes in winter, song Xintong will carry out the plan.
Soon, the pot was boiling, and the steam water made the lid float.
Song Xintong quickly scooped up the rice, poured it into the washed cask steamer, closed the lid, sat back in front of the door and stuffed firewood into it.
In his previous life, song Xintong was not in the mood to cook. He would only cook when he was in a good mood after a holiday. I didn't expect that when I arrived here, I cooked every day. I became the most annoying cook in my mouth before, and I cooked more and more smoothly.
Song Xintong sighed and got up to deal with the silver carp sent by Xie Yi yesterday.
In less than half an hour, song Xintong finished the meal, including sauerkraut fish, braised meatballs, a very simple family dish, three people at a table, eating slowly in the dark.
May the years be quiet and peaceful.
