Leisurely Farmer's Family: A Strong Man and His Broken Leg Son-in-law

Chapter 20 Grandpa, did you do anything for a living when you were young?

Nothing happened at the moment, so Nian found a piece of hemp rope and went to the longevity house.

Liu Yu was placing eggs when she saw grandma heading straight to the west room with a hemp rope, so she got up and followed quickly.

Every time Nian measured it, he would sigh, "It's too thin!"

Changsheng was a little embarrassed. He stretched out his arms when asked and raised his hands when asked. He was so good.

"Mr. Zhao will come back tomorrow. I have to ask him when you can eat meat. It's a good supplement..." Nian muttered while tying a knot in the hemp rope.

After getting along with each other for the past two days, she got to know something about Chang Sheng's temperament, and she accepted his identity as her grandson's son-in-law. This child had a good temper, didn't talk much, and was patient and not impatient.

When Nian saw the several pieces of patched clothes neatly stacked, her eyes became more and more kind.

Brother Yu is impatient to do these needlework, and he can't bother his eldest daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law all the time. Now, he and the old man will not have to worry about Brother Yu being alone in a hundred years.

Looking at Brother Yu who was surrounding Changsheng asking if he was thirsty or tired, Nian's mood became better and better: "Okay, I'll put the size of Changsheng. This winter coat will be made bigger by your sister-in-law Tianyu." Some, no matter how long this period of time grows, the meat will not be afraid of being tight."

When Liu Yu saw her grandma going out, she hurriedly stepped forward and took away all her clothes.

"You have a rest, I'll fry some melon seeds for you."

Most of these clothes are his dead father's old clothes. He wears them when he goes to the mountains or to do hard work in the town. Firstly, he doesn't feel bad if he gets damaged. Secondly, others don't dare to bully him easily when they see that he looks like a man. his home.

After taking the clothes back to the house and putting them away, Liu Yu asked Nian for a bowl of zucchini, took it to the kitchen and cooked it in a dry pot over low heat.

Liu Yu took the broom she used to sweep the chopping board and kept turning the pumpkin seeds in circles, so that the cooked pumpkin seeds could be heated evenly, charred on the outside and fragrant on the inside, and not easy to burn.

The pumpkin seeds made a crackling sound in the pot. Liu Yu opened her mouth when she saw most of them, and quickly shoveled them into a small dustpan made of sorghum stalks.

"When I'm bored, I eat melon seeds." Liu Yu found a kang table from somewhere and placed the kang table and melon seeds within reach of Changsheng.

He brought another bowl of tea and put it on the table. Feeling that there was nothing wrong with it, he looked at Changsheng with a smile: "But it's more convenient. I have to clean up the vegetable patch behind the house later, so I can't chat with you anymore."

"No, hurry up and get busy." Changsheng was really helpless. This man treated himself like a three-year-old child. Even the three-year-old children in the village did not take such good care of him.

"Then I have to go. If you really need it, just call me loudly." There are gaps in some places in the adobe house, so the sound insulation is not that good.

"go Go……"

There are about two parts of the vegetable plot behind the house. In previous years, they mostly planted radish, cabbage, garlic seedlings, and green leafy vegetables that can withstand wind and snow.

This year there is one more person in the family, so the vegetable garden needs to be opened wider. Liu Yu took a rake and started planning the vegetable garden.

He was very strong, so he found the edge to expand outwards, and then rake nail after nail to dig up the ground. Even if a man were to dig the solid ground, it would take a lot of effort, and he couldn't rake it to the bottom with one nail.

Liu Yu's expression was quite relaxed. When he raked the rake with a nail, the teeth of the nail could not be seen. Then he turned the wooden handle and lifted it up, and a large piece of soil was dug up.

He was digging the ground in front, and Nian was following behind with a shovel to break up the soil.

At the end of the day, Liu Yu had finished plowing, and only half of the large chunks of soil he dug out were still intact.

"It's getting late today. Grandma, let's go back and cook. I'll do the rest."

Liu Yu turned over the other side of the rake and started to break up the soil. Seeing that her grandson was doing it much faster, Nian picked up the shovel and cut a handful of leeks before getting up and going back.

By the time I finished clearing the vegetable patch, dusk had already set, and the orange clouds in the distant sky turned gray-blue.

As Liu Yu walked home with a nail rake, she vaguely heard the voices of grandma and grandma in the kitchen.

Grandpa was trying to please Grandma by explaining something to her, but Grandma would snort coldly from time to time, and her words were also a bit weird.

Grandma must be buying tobacco with Grandpa. It seems that the head of this family is not easy to be!

Liu Yu learned from his grandfather's lessons and summed up his experience to prevent himself from falling into his grandfather's current situation in the future.

After thinking about it, he took on the role of himself and Changsheng. Changsheng had a good temper, and it seemed that he would not object to anything he said or did. He should not take care of himself like grandma takes care of grandpa in the future.

However, it seems good if Chang Sheng takes care of himself.

Today's dinner is leek dumpling soup, and Changsheng also has a bowl of steamed and smooth egg custard.

After dinner, Nian went to Daer's house with cloth and cotton.

Liu Yu was cleaning the kitchen, while Liu Fusheng sat in the courtyard and smoked a pot. From time to time, he glanced sideways at Liu Yu, who was cleaning the kitchen.

"Grandpa, what are you doing this afternoon?" Liu Yu poured the pot water into the bucket without realizing it.

"Hmph, go to the bamboo forest on the mountain. If I had known that someone was selling me behind my back, I wouldn't have gone to the half-way slope to find some chestnuts for people!" Liu Fusheng feigned anger.

Liu Yu's hand holding the ladle paused slightly, and she looked at her grandpa in surprise. She was angry. When she saw the old man tapping the pot of the pipe, she suddenly remembered that grandma had discovered the shredded tobacco.

Liu Yu cleaned the pot three times, five times, five times, and two times, and fed the hungry squealing pigs, then approached Liu Fusheng in a flattering manner.

"Grandpa, it's not my fault..." As he said this, he explained what happened today and the purchase price of the grocery store owner.

"No wonder everyone wants to live in the town, have a front house, and even open a grocery store. The money earned is enough to support a family." Liu Yu couldn't help but sigh.

"You have often been looking for work in nearby towns in the past few years, so you only found out about this."

"I've known it for a long time." But in the past, there weren't so many places to spend money at home. We had food and vegetables at home. You can buy oil, salt, sauce and vinegar for a long time. My grandpa and grandma took care of all the big and small things at home, and I didn't care about money either. There is no specific concept.

Thinking about his marriage to Chang Sheng, even if it means recruiting a wife, not to mention repairing the house, he must at least buy two decent pieces of furniture. He doesn't want to wrong Chang Sheng.

The yard at home is still fenced. People walking outside can have a panoramic view of the entire yard by turning their heads. There is no privacy at all. It would be great if the yard wall could be stretched, even if it was made of adobe.

In the past few days, Changsheng has been treating his illness and taking medicine, and he has to replenish his body in the future. Grandpa and grandma are getting older, and they have to save a sum of money for emergencies.

Each of these things requires money to accomplish.

Liu Yu's eyebrows wrinkled unconsciously.

"Grandpa, did you do anything for a living when you were young?"

"I'm doing it now. Tomorrow I'll take the dustpans, bamboo baskets, baskets and other things I've knitted these days and sell them to Shuangqiao."

Shuangqiao is a big town near them, Shangzhang Town is for doubles, and Shuangqiao Town is for singles. Their village is about the same distance from the two towns, and the villagers go to these two towns more or less.

Liu Yu was a little disappointed. Most people in these ten miles and eight towns can weave baskets with bamboo and wicker. The difference is the difference between good and useful. Liu Fusheng's business is not very profitable.

"Why, I also want to do business." Liu Fusheng looked at his grandson who looked disappointed and asked.
