Reborn in Changbai Mountain, I rely on my divine eyes to dig ginseng and hunt
Chapter 29: Going to the eldest sister's house to warm up the pot
There was a round stone under the pine tree in front, about six or seven hundred meters. Liu Xialian lowered her waist and squatted, hugged the stone with both hands, and stood up after struggling.
The stone actually stood up, was lifted above his head, and walked around twice. This was the only strength Wu Song had.
Bang, the stone hit the ground and made a big hole, then he punched a dead tree as thick as a bowl next to him, and bang, the trunk broke.
"Hahaha, great. I don't have to worry about my physical fitness not being able to keep up. I can perform the Eighteen Black Dragon Moves normally."
Da Huang hid far away with his head tilted, thinking that his new master might have something wrong with his brain. Why was he hitting and smashing things?
Liu Xialian was so beautiful, she was happier than finding 100,000 yuan
"Let's go back." Liu Xia Lian packed her things, spread her legs, and ran back to the village.
This speed is really fast, about 17 or 18 minutes for five kilometers. Normally, it takes at least 20 minutes to run five kilometers cross-country.
The hound Dahuang looked at his owner in surprise, thinking that his speed was almost catching up with mine, but he couldn't speak.
When Liu Xia Lian came back, her mother had just come out of the old house after feeding the pigs. "Xia Lian, your brother-in-law is here. Be careful with your words, don't be too harsh. After all, men have to save face. If you speak too harshly, he will be unhappy."
"Don't worry, I'm measured."
In the yard, my brother-in-law was holding Xiao Xinyue and playing with her. He was wearing a gray forestry work suit and had a side-parted hair. At the age of twenty-five or twenty-six, he still looked a little childish.
When my brother-in-law saw Liu Xia Lian coming in, he immediately felt oppressed. It was like a student meeting his class teacher or a worker meeting his workshop director.
"Mother, second sister."
Liu Xia Lian looked at her brother-in-law and understood how difficult it was for him, being caught between his mother and his wife.
"Brother-in-law, how is the house being repaired?"
"It's been repaired. I came here today to pick them up."
"Okay, let's go after dinner. Mom, make something delicious for my brother-in-law."
My mother got up early in the morning and started cooking four main dishes.
Roe deer meat stewed with radish, pheasant stewed with potatoes, catfish with eggplant, fish head with chopped pepper, and corn pancakes as the staple food.
Brother-in-law Zhang Wang stared blankly at the table full of dishes, not knowing how to pick up his chopsticks. This was his mother-in-law's demonstration, a slap in the face in disguise.
The eldest sister nudged her brother-in-law with her elbow: "Why are you daydreaming? Eat."
"Come, come, eat."
The family had a hearty breakfast, and the mother spoke up: "Son-in-law, I have something to say. The last incident was quite a big deal. Qiuyue is a child who can endure hardships and is not a spoiled child, but you have to be about the same. We can't endure hardships without hardship. Your third uncle also said that the Zhang family is not that poor. We still have a few chickens and dozens of eggs. We can't accept the old-fashioned ideas of the older generation."
"What mom said is true. I have thought about it a lot. It is true that mom was wrong in this matter, but as a son, I dare not say anything. Now it's all right. We are separated and live separately. Qiuyue can decide for herself whether to eat well or not. I learned to drive a tractor this month. Next month, my salary will increase by a few yuan, and it should be 48 yuan."
The eldest sister said, "My second sister and I are going to do business together. You will have less pressure in the future. We still have ten acres of land at home. Next year, we will have twenty acres of land. You don't have to worry too much. You will definitely have good food and drink."
Liu Xia Lian raised her hand and looked at her watch: "It's already nine o'clock, let's go."
When my eldest brother-in-law came, he borrowed a donkey cart from the village, a very small one.
Unexpectedly, my mother-in-law and sister-in-law were both going, and my elder sister and Xinyue were riding in a donkey cart. My mother and Liu Xialian were riding in a mule cart, and the hound Dahuang was wagging his tail and insisted on following.
Blankets, quilt covers, a radio, ten pounds of smoked meat, a dozen smoked fish, a scale, and several woven bags.
The donkey cart was in the lead, running in front, and the big black mule cart was in the rear, running behind.
Brother-in-law Zhang Wang was a little dumbfounded and asked Liu Qiuyue: "What's going on?"
"When I got married, the dowry was too small. This year, my family's situation has improved, so my mother and second sister made up for it for me. Look here, there is also a watch."
Zhang Wang was extremely envious. This watch cost dozens of dollars. "What are these woven bags for?"
"My second sister and I started a business together, collecting mountain products from the village."
Zhang Wang asked in surprise: "Are you serious? But we don't have the money."
The elder sister opened her bag, which was filled with money, including cents, bills, one-dollar, two-dollar, five-dollar and ten-dollar notes.
"This is 300 yuan. My second sister gave me the money for the delivery. My second sister comes to pick up the goods once a month and gives me 5 cents to 10 cents profit per kilogram.
Zhang Wang had at least been to school for a few years, and was muttering to himself, "Based on the price of 30 cents per pound, I can collect 1,000 pounds for 300 yuan, and the profit is 10 cents per pound, which means I can earn 100 yuan. What? You earn more than me?"
"What's wrong? I earn more than you, so our lives can be better. Second sister has been fishing and working in the mountains recently, making an average of 200 to 300 yuan a day. Of course, I can't compare with Second Sister, but I am satisfied with earning 100 yuan a month. I will work hard for Second Sister, and Second Sister has been very kind to me."
"That's fine. I work at a forest farm. It's a stable large state-owned enterprise. Although I don't earn much, I have good security. You can run your business at home, and we can live a good life together."
After more than ten miles, the two cars quickly arrived at Zhangjiatun along the main road.
The donkey cart slowed down, Zhang Wang got off the cart and pulled the donkey, shouting to the back: "Mom, second sister, follow me, the yard in front is it."
The location is good, next to the main road in the village, and only a few dozen meters away from the old house. The fence is made of logs as thick as an arm, and after opening the gate, there are five rooms with loess walls and a roof made of tiles and wheat straw.
The front yard is small, about half an acre, with a woodshed, kitchen, toilet, and stable. Passing through the house, you will reach the backyard, which is larger, about two and a half acres.
This is considered a small courtyard in the Northeast, but it's just okay.
Mother nodded: "Not bad, not bad. The eldest brother-in-law did a good job, but the furniture in the house is a bit shabby. When you make money, you can buy a better set of furniture."
I came here today to have a hotpot, which means we will have a lunch at my eldest sister's house at noon. I just came here at the last minute and didn't inform other relatives, but my eldest brother-in-law's family will come to have a big pot meal.
Liu Xia Lian hung the smoked fish and smoked meat on the clothesline, and also hung a sign at the door: Collecting mountain products.
"Brother-in-law, today we are going to give your family a hot pot, so you can't make do with anything. There are melon seeds, candies, and cigarettes in this box. Prepare them to entertain guests when they come."
Cigarettes are relatively cheap. Baishan cigarettes and ginseng cigarettes cost only a few cents a box. Alcohol is expensive. The local Daqu liquor costs more than one yuan. People in Northeast China generally drink a lot. Half a catty is the base, and a catty is just to warm up. So I prepared six bottles of wine.
The eldest sister left the child to Liu Xia Lian and rolled up her sleeves to wash the pots and dishes. She still had to live her life. Although she had conflicts with her mother-in-law, this cheap husband was still okay.
There are two pots in the kitchen, one big and one small, both are new. New pots need to be heated with lard. My mother is an expert. She heats the pots until they are boiling hot, and then rubs them vigorously with lard until they are shiny. Only then can the pots be used more easily in the future.
Zhang Wang took a pack of cigarettes and went out to the butcher uncle's house.
"Uncle, smoke. Any more meat?"
The butcher had a cigarette in his mouth and he took it and put it to his ear.
"Yes, I killed one this morning and sold less than half of it."
