Back to seven or seven kinds of fields to raise children

Xu Shiyan naturally didn't want to let them rummage, so he hurriedly stopped them.

"Auntie, these dogs are not very good-tempered, don't get too close, a bite is not worth it." Xu Shiyan could only talk about things through the dogs.

Not to mention, those dogs were really baring their teeth.

They are on the mountain all the year round, and they are trained by Old Li to not recognize anyone except the owner and protect things more.

Some dogs don't care when outsiders enter the door, but if they walk away with something in their hands, they will definitely bite you to death.

A good dog not only protects the owner, but also protects wealth.

These dogs were like that, when they saw someone approaching the sledge, they would stare fiercely and whine.

The women were so frightened that they quickly withdrew their hands, "What kind of dog does this have? Such a dead temper."

"The dog Kansan has a strong temper, otherwise how can he do it?" Xu Shiyan smiled.

"Auntie, it's getting late. We just came back. We have to go home and have a look. We'll talk when we have time."

After living on the mountain for a few months, it was really peaceful, but now when I return to the village, I have to deal with these people again.

Xu Shiyan couldn't help sighing, and he didn't know what the excitement at home would be like next.

After finishing speaking, Xu Shiyan yelled at the dogs to move on and went straight to Lao Li's house at the west end of the village.

Although the couple have gone up the mountain, the furniture and everything are still in Li's house, so they have to leave a place to stay so that they can come back for the New Year.

Just arrived at the gate, before entering the door, just in time to see Mrs. Li coming out to hold firewood.

"Oh, it's San'er and his wife who came back? I've been talking about it for the past few days. It's the twelfth lunar month now, and you two should go down the mountain and come back for the New Year.

Look, I really can't help but say, isn't this coming back today? "

Mrs. Li was very affectionate when she met Xu Shiyan and his wife.

"Yeah, it's the twelfth lunar month, and I'm going home to celebrate the New Year. Auntie, how is my uncle? Is he better?"

Xu Shiyan drove the sledge into the courtyard, first unhooked the dog, and tied it to the nearby kennel.

These dogs were raised by Lao Li, and they were brought back to be raised at Li's house every twelfth lunar month. The dogs were no strangers here.

"It's okay, half of my body is still not moving, and I can't speak clearly.

Well, at least one life was saved, which is not bad. "

Lao Litou stayed in the commune hospital for nearly 20 days, and returned home after his condition stabilized.

He is old and has a cerebral hemorrhage, which will definitely leave sequelae. No one can do anything about it, he can only take medicine and needles to support him.

"I've been so busy this autumn that I haven't seen each other yet, so I haven't thanked you yet.

The doctor said it, luckily you didn't move it indiscriminately at that time, and you even bled it, at least this saved the old man's life.

If it weren't for you on the mountain, our old man would probably hang himself. "Old Mrs. Li said while wiping tears.

Not to hang, but to be sure.

In his previous life, Xu Shiyan went to work in the Da'an Coal Mine, but did not work in the field. When he came back during the Chinese New Year, he found out that old Litou was gone from a sudden illness while watching Shen on the mountain.

After all, it was a memory from many years ago, and it was not a particularly important thing. Xu Shiyan didn't think of it at all before.

It was after Old Li's accident that he thought about it carefully before he remembered it.

But this cannot be said to Mrs. Li, Xu Shiyan can only comfort him, and then quickly unload the things from the sledge and send them to the warehouse for storage.

This autumn and winter, Xu Shiyan has been pulling things a lot.

Pine nuts, walnuts, and hazelnuts filled a sack, and a lot of meat and skins were saved.

Of course, you have to bring them back when you go down the mountain to celebrate the New Year. Sell what you need to sell, and keep the rest for your own food.

After moving everything down and tidying up, Xu Shiyan carried a pheasant, a hare, a piece of venison and a piece of pork, and entered the east room.

"Uncle, aunt. I just came back from the mountain, and I don't have any good things. They are all made on the mountain. Let's keep them for eating."

Old Mrs. Li was feeding the old man water, when she saw Xu Shiyan brought something, she waved her hand quickly.

"Oh, San'er, why are you being so polite?

You should give these things to your parents, we old couple have nothing to thank you for, how can we still accept your things? "

"Ma'am, if you say that, you'll be off the hook.

What's the difference between us and a family?I don't have any other skills, just don't dislike you two elders.

On the other side of my parents, what's more, I spent a lot of rowing on the mountain this winter.

It's still thanks to my uncle, my uncle is amazing, and those dogs are well trained. "

Without those dogs, Xu Shiyan could still hunt, but certainly not as much as now.

Xu Shiyan admired old Li from the bottom of his heart. When he was young, this old man was absolutely extraordinary.

"San'er, here it is, here it is, keep it, keep it." Old Li said that he didn't slip away, and it was a bit difficult.

"Sit, sit." The old man struggled to raise his hand, beckoning Xu Shiyan to sit down.

"No, sir, I just came back and haven't visited my father yet.

I'll go there first, and we'll chat again in the evening. "

I have lived on the mountain for several months, and I must go to see my parents when I go down the mountain. This is the rule.

"Hey, hey, night, night, talk."

Old Li is so old, how can he not understand these rules?So he waved his hand at Xu Shiyan, signaling him to go see his parents.

Xu Shiyan came out of the east room, went back to the west room to change his clothes, and then dragged the sledge with Su Anying to Xu's house in the east of the village.

"Father, mother, we are going down the mountain." Xu Shiyan shouted as soon as he entered the gate.

"Lao Liu, Jinfeng, Xiaobo, come out and see what delicious food I brought back?"

After all, they are relatives of flesh and blood, and their feelings are still different.

When I first came back from rebirth, I was full of resentment and disliked everyone.

After living on the mountain for so long, Xu Shiyan's thoughts also changed a little.

No matter what, they are also parents and mothers, and those who should be filial should still be filial.

Of course, it is an eternal truth that the fragrance far away and the smell near the near.

Come back once in a while, just bring something home, but don't get too close.

Otherwise, Xu Shiyan didn't think he could bear the old man's bad temper.

Chapter 70 The Fourth's Marriage

If it was normal, Xu Shiyan shouted that outside, Xu Shiqin would have rushed out with his nephew and niece.

But today the house was quiet and there was no movement. Xu Shiyan felt strange and led his wife into the yard.

Until the two walked outside the door, just about to reach out to open the door, the door was pushed open from the inside.

"Third brother, are you back?" It was Xu Shiqin, who just looked at his face with a displeased expression.

"What's the matter? Is there something wrong at home?" Xu Shiyan was puzzled and couldn't help asking.

"Don't mention it, isn't the fourth brother engaged on the sixth day of the sixth day? There is something wrong with the Wu family."

Xu Shiqin sighed, and reached out to help Su Anying enter the door. "Sister-in-law three, be careful, stomp your feet, don't slip."

A foot of snow was brought from the outside, and anyone who entered the door stomped their feet, the door was wet and slippery.

Xu Shiqin worried about his sister-in-law, and carefully supported her.

"What kind of moths are there? What kind of moths can come out?

They were the ones who were optimistic about your fourth brother at the beginning, and they wanted to follow you shamelessly, but now something is wrong? "

Xu Shiyan was stunned, didn't he remember such a thing in his previous life?

Xu Shide, the eldest of the Xu family, teaches in Qingling, and has been dating Wu Qiuyan, the daughter of the Wu family in Qingling, for several years.

The brothers of the Xu family are all good-looking, Xu Shide is a lively person and has a good temper. When he first went to Qingling to teach, he was picked up by the Wu family.

The eldest daughter of the Wu family is Wu Qiuyan, one year younger than Xu Shide, and looks pretty good.His youngest son happened to be in Xu Shide's class.

The Wu family took a fancy to Xu Shide, and no matter what food the family cooked, the youngest son would drag Xu Shide to the house for dinner.

After going back and forth, Xu Shide and Wu Qiuyan saw each other.

The Wu family had long wanted to finalize the marriage, but the Xu family never nodded in agreement.

The main reason is that Xu Shiyan has never had a date, and the Xu family is still very strict with rules. The elder brother is not married, and the younger brother cannot marry a wife first.

Finally, in the spring of this year, someone mentioned Su Anying from the big battalion to Xu Shiyan. The Xu family was in a hurry, and the two of them set a date to get married within a short time.

Xu Shiyan's side just got engaged, but the other side of Wu's family urged him to also get engaged, for fear that the marriage would go wrong.

In this year, most of them don't get engaged too early. Usually, they get engaged one month before they get married, or get engaged at the beginning of the month and get married at the end of the month.

You know that if you are engaged, you have to walk around as relatives, and you are not allowed to give gifts during the holidays?The five sons of Xu's family can't afford any money.

So the Xu family was not in a hurry, and only in autumn did they find a matchmaker to go to the Wu family to discuss the marriage.

It was also very good at the time. I got engaged on the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month and got married on the 26th.

It just so happened that the team divided the money and food, and they were well-off, so they killed pigs and held banquets before the year, and celebrated the New Year when they got married.

Unexpectedly, the things for the Xu family's marriage were all ready, and Xu Shide's school was on winter vacation, and he was preparing to come back to get engaged, but something happened at the Wu family's end.

"The Wu family said that if you want a bride price of 100 yuan, you also need a radio, bicycle, and sewing machine. If you don't have these, you won't be engaged."

Xu Shiqin was very angry. These things add up to 600 yuan.

The point is that bicycles also have radios and sewing machines, which cannot be bought without industrial tickets.

Xu's family doesn't have any workers, so where can they get industrial tickets?

Besides, even if there is an industrial ticket, where will the hundreds of dollars come from?

For Xu Shide's marriage, the family has already made a complete set of furniture and quilts, and bought two catties of wool, a watch, a pair of leather shoes for Wu Qiuyan, and made a pair of cotton and two sets of clothes. Isn't this all money?

When Xu Shiyan heard it, he was also quite surprised. The Wu family has a big appetite, so I dare to ask for it.

Entering the east room, I saw Xu Chenghou, Zhou Guilan and his wife sitting on the South Kang.

Xu Chenghou was holding a pipe and pot in his mouth, smoking one after another, Zhou Guilan's complexion was not very good.

Seeing Xu Shiyan and his wife enter the door, Xu Chenghou hurriedly knocked the cigarette bag and pot under the edge of the kang, and stopped smoking.

"San'er and his wife are back? Quick, come and sit down. Your mother has been nagging these days, when will you two go down the mountain?"

Xu Chenghou's attitude was surprisingly gentle.

This winter, Xu Shiyan brought home a lot of food. No matter if he killed a wild boar, black blind man or roe deer, he would send half of it back.

It can be said that after winter, the Xu family has not lost their flesh, and their life is much better than in previous years.

Who in the village doesn't envy the Xu family now?It is said that Xu Chenghou and his wife raised a capable son, and the whole family followed suit.

Xu Chenghou also felt that his face was radiant, and his attitude towards this third son was naturally quite different after he changed his previous view.

With Xu Shiyan's attitude towards his father, his heart was full of ghosts. Did his father take the wrong medicine?I've never seen my father so kind before.

It was Zhou Guilan who pulled his son, so Xu Shiyan sat down, and Su Anying also sat on the edge of the kang.

"Father, mother, I just heard what happened from the sixth son?" After Xu Shiyan sat down, he had to ask.

"Oh, don't mention it, the family is worrying about the marriage of the fourth child." Zhou Guilan sighed and told Xu Shiyan about the matter.

"You said that it's the day of engagement soon, but it's like this at the other end.

A 100 yuan bride price, we can still get it out of our hands, but where can we find radios and bicycles?

Isn't this embarrassing? "As Zhou Guilan said, her eyes turned red.

Outsiders looked at the five sons of the Xu family, and their days were prosperous, but in fact, whoever knew whose family was having a hard time.

Just the fact that these five sons got married and married their daughters-in-law is enough to cause headaches.

Fortunately, the first three are all going well.

Even though the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law are both educated youths, they didn't want this or that at the beginning, and they arranged the marriage according to the rules of the village.
