Mu Yangling came home with a bag of millet, and Shu Wanniang was surprised when she saw it, "Why did you buy so much?"
"You have to buy it sooner or later, and you can feel at ease if you buy it early."
Mu Yangling put the things away, and when she came out, she was pulled by Shu Wanniang, "Mother made clothes for you, come and see if they fit."
"Mother, didn't Daddy let you do these needlework? You are pregnant with a child now, which is not good for your eyes."
Shu Wanniang just smiled and took her daughter to try it, "Your brother has already tried it, you can try it too, mother, let's see if there is anything else that needs to be changed."
Mu Yangling put on her clothes and showed it to Shu Wanniang. Shu Wanniang nodded and said with a smile, "Mom, please put the sleeves away for you." Having said this, she was a little disappointed, looking at her daughter's handsome facial features, and said, "If A Ling would Clothes with wide sleeves must look good, but your skin is like a monkey..." That's why Shu Wanniang always made narrow-sleeved clothes for Mu Yangling.
"Wow-sleeves are too procrastinating. When entering the woods, they catch the branches and rocks and waste their clothes." Mu Yangling took off his clothes and gave them to his mother, and ran to the kitchen to find something to eat, "Mother, what are we going to have for lunch? "
"Just now your cousin and aunt sent a sausage, and my mother will fry it for you in a while. Now go back to your brother first."
Mu Yangling responded and ran to Goudan's house to find his younger brother.
In the afternoon, the siblings didn’t go anywhere, they just sat at home practicing calligraphy and reading, and Mu Yangling had to learn needlework.
The two cousins of the Liu family did not return until the sun was about to set. Eight of the more than 20 rabbits they brought out came back, but they were very happy and divided the rabbits and went back to their own homes.
Some people saw them come back with rabbits, and when it was time for dinner, everyone in the village knew that Mu Yangling took her cousins into the mountains.
It's okay for others, although they will say some bitter words, but after all, their relatives are here, and there is an unwritten agreement, and it is Mu Yangling who brought Liu Ting and the others into the mountain, not Mu Shi, and it is also here. Jealous and jealous.
But Mu Yangling's little aunt, Fang Liu, was unwilling. After she found out, she threw the pot at home, and said bitterly: "They are all relatives, and the Mu family really favors one over the other, even Xishan Village knows how to send things over, and the same is true. How come the aunt in a village doesn't know how to take care of it here?"
"What's so difficult about this? Mother will go to the little girl from the Mu family tomorrow, and ask her to take me and my brother into the mountain together. You are her aunt, so dare she not listen to what you say?" Fang Zhuzi said.
Fang Liu rolled his eyes and clapped his hands: "Good son, you are still smart. I will go to her early tomorrow morning, and she will take you into the mountains as well."
Fang Zhao glanced at her mother-in-law and whispered, "I heard that A Ling took the initiative to bring up the matter of going into the mountain. Shouldn't we go this way?"
"What's wrong?" Fang Liu scolded her, "You don't think about your family, don't you allow me to make life easier at home? Speaking of which, Liu Zhao is still your sister, and I haven't seen her help you. , How could our Fang family marry a daughter-in-law like you without saying anything about such a big thing as going into the mountain..."
Fang Zhao shrank his neck and did not dare to speak.
Fang Liu said that he was tired, so he turned around.
Early the next morning, Mu Yangling checked the doors and windows, then carried his brother to his mother's room, put him on her bed, and whispered: "Mother, I've closed the doors and windows, you can sleep again."
The pregnant Shu Wanniang was drowsy, she responded in confusion, hugged her son beside her slightly and fell asleep again.
Xiao Bowen slept even more deadly, and did not move from beginning to end.
Mu Yangling smiled, took the bow and arrow, carried the basket on his back, and went out. At this time, the sky was already bright, but the sun had not yet appeared, not even the morning light.
Mu Yangling squinted his eyes, and could only see someone coming towards her not far away. When they got closer, he realized that something was wrong. It was not four, but seven.
Mu Yangling frowned.
Liu Ting walked closer and said with an embarrassed expression: "A Ling, we met my aunt on the way..."
"A-Ling, since you brought your cousins into the mountains, let's take your two cousins too." Fang Liu cut off Liu Ting's words and stepped forward: "Your two uncles lived together. It's not easy, my aunt is also very difficult here, I know you are a kind child, since you want to bring it, why don't you bring two more people, and my aunt will cook something delicious for you."
Mu Yangling snorted coldly, took a step back, and categorically refused: "I'll take my four cousins, I can't take them, my aunt should go." Then he said to Liu Ting and the others, "Let's go. ."
Fang Liu's face was ugly, and he couldn't help asking loudly: "How did you talk to the elders? It's not just a matter of helping hands. Since you have four cousins, why can't you bring two more cousins? ?"
Fang Zhuzi and Fang Genzi also looked at Mu Yangling with displeasure.
Liu Ting frowned and his face was displeased. He could not help but stop in front of Mu Yangling and said, "Auntie, do you want to ask the Mu family to take you into the mountain?"
Fang Liu was startled, then jumped up, "Don't talk nonsense, when did I say this?"
"Then why are you being aggressive now? A Ling took the initiative to mention that we followed A Ling into the mountain, and now she doesn't want to take you," Liu Ting looked straight at Fang Liu, "Auntie, if you continue to ask, I will I can only ask my father to come over."
Fang Liu’s face was ashen. People in Linshan Village could not ask the Mu family to take them into the mountain. If they had to take them with them, they would have to pay more than 30% of the income. This is a mature rule agreed in the village.
Mu Yangling pushed Liu Ting away and confronted Fang Liu, "I don't know what agreement Linshan Village has with the Mu family. I don't bring you because I don't like you."
Liu Xuan stomped his feet and shouted, "A Ling, what nonsense are you talking about?"
The four cousins all felt that Mu Yangling was too sincere, and Mu Shi had never been so honest.
Mu Yangling snorted and continued: "Your Fang family bullied me when I was a child, and my little aunt bullied my mother from time to time. I only brought you into the mountains when I was sick, and the two cousins are not obedient. People, if something goes wrong in the woods, you won't have to tear me apart, so even if I bring other people from the village into the mountains, I will never take you."
He turned around and was about to leave, but seeing Fang Liu glaring at her with hatred, Mu Yangling thought about it and said, "If you dare to bully my mother and my brother while my father and I are not here, I will I dare to smash your house, if you don't believe me, try it."
Liu Ting frowned slightly and said, "Auntie, the stone is precious to his daughter-in-law, and he will be home at noon today."
Fang Liu's chest was bullied sharply, and he pointed at a few nephews and said hatefully: "Okay, okay, you bully our orphans and widows, right? I'll go to the village chief to sue you." He turned around with his son and left in a hurry. .
Liu Yuan frowned, "Lord Hall, they won't really go to the village chief, will they?"
"It's okay, even if we find the village chief, we have something to say, let's go, the morning light has come out." Liu Ting took the lead to follow Mu Yangling, but sighed in his heart, knowing that the number of times they could enter the mountain was limited.
Even if A Ling took the initiative to bring them into the mountain, it was too eye-catching, and there were many people who were jealous. For the sake of the peace of the village, I am afraid that he would not agree with them to follow A Ling into the mountain again.
Mu Yangling obviously also thought of this, so he felt a little sullen in his heart.
