Transmigrated into the Pastoral Scenery
Chapter 41
I'm tired of hearing it.
Feng's also disliked Song Jingwei's pampering, always needing someone to take care of her, but she didn't dare to say anything.She is not familiar with Song Jingwei yet, so she won't provoke him easily.
She also couldn't understand Yang's carefulness in raising children, so she said directly: "They are all rural children, and they are not noble people. Aren't we here to raise them casually? You are so precious. It’s not good, don’t you know that children need to be raised cheaply to be able to survive?”
This happened to be heard by Song Jingwei, and he immediately said: "I don't know if other people's children are expensive or not. Anyway, my children are expensive. If you have any objections, please teach your children, don't use my children." Say something nasty."
Not to mention Feng's, even Yang's face felt hot, what her mother said was really unlucky, what to support and not to support, is this something that can be said?
That night, Song Jingwei said to Shen Junxi coldly: "Tell your grandma and uncle tomorrow to let them go home."
Shen Junxi nodded silently, his daughter-in-law is not feeling well these days, he takes it to heart, but in fact he may not be feeling better himself.His grandmother, Feng Shi, always looked at him strangely, and she almost didn't say directly: "How can you be better than others, why did you get lucky, have money, a wife, and a big fat son."
The next day, Shen Junxi first discussed with Yang Shi about grandma Feng Shi.He gestured to his mother, "Grandma and uncle, when will you go back?"
Seeing his son's expression, Yang knew what his son was thinking. In fact, she herself was very troubled for so many days. She said, "I'll tell your grandma and uncle." They stayed at home for five days It's enough time to think about it. There is still a family to take care of on the other side of my mother's house, so how can I leave for so long.
Thinking about this, Yang went to Feng and told her what he wanted.
Upon hearing this, Feng said: "I told you to let your younger brother and sister-in-law go back first, but you insisted on not agreeing, and now you are talking about what to do."
Yang said: "Is it the same for you and your younger brothers to go back together now?"
"That can't be done." Feng said: "My great-grandson hasn't eaten the full moon wine yet, how can I go back?"
Well, the full moon wine is pulled out again, Yang folded her fingers and counted, there are still a long time.She was silent for a while, and said: "It's not that I don't want you to drink full moon wine... It's just that you live here and live well. You don't need to worry about many things in our house. You just need to eat and sleep well. .”
"What do you mean? Do you think I'm meddling?" Feng Shi thought for a while, and said, "It was your daughter-in-law who complained to you, didn't I just say something wrong yesterday, and he didn't care? "She also knew that she said something wrong yesterday and caught Song Jingwei's eyes.
"It's not something that can't be done. Think about it for yourself. If I came to your house and told you everything, would you be happy?" Yang said straightforwardly, and stopped beating around Feng.Her mother's temperament is like this, she thinks she's doing a good job when you keep quiet with her.
"Hey, do you think I'm pointing fingers?" Feng Shi stared at Yang Shi with her eyes wide open, and she habitually wanted to twist Yang's ears.
"Mother! This is not your home, this is mine!" Yang Shi also crossed her hips and looked at Feng Shi.Now she is no longer that little girl who is slaughtered by others. She has a husband and a son, a daughter-in-law and a grandson, and she has everything. She is full of confidence!
"You!" Feng never expected that the always cowardly second daughter was no longer afraid of herself, and she was so angry that her face turned red.
"Can you tell me, from now on, should we stay honestly and prepare to drink the full moon wine, or pack up our things and go home with my younger brother?" Yang Shi asked while the iron was hot, this time no matter what, there was a result.
"Me!" Feng Shi stuck her neck and couldn't say a word of cruelty. She was so angry with her second daughter that she wanted to slap her, but how could she do it today? If she wanted to stay, she had no choice but to say: " I don’t care about your head office, right? It’s as if I love to take care of you, but it’s too late for me to take care of my own house!”
"That's just right, you don't need to worry about our family, our family is fine now." Yang said not to be outdone, stretched her neck and choked her back.
"Huh!" Feng snorted coldly, she had nothing to rely on, as long as she still wanted to get along with her second daughter, she didn't dare to go too far.
From that day on, the family finally lived in peace.
However, the matter still did not meet Song Jingwei's requirements, so Shen Junxi was a little hesitant, and when he got the news from his mother, he went back and gestured to his daughter-in-law: "Although they didn't leave, they have already promised their mother that they will not meddle in their own business."
Song Jingwei didn't have to drive people away, he said: "As long as you don't point fingers in front of my eyes, I don't care."
"Yeah." Shen Junxi smiled when he heard the words, and there must be nothing after pointing fingers.
The days of confinement go through day by day, and no one wants to hurry up to the full moon more than Song Jingwei.He hasn't bathed or washed his hair for a long time now, and he feels that his whole body stinks.When he couldn't take it anymore, he would ask Shen Junxi, "Have you heard, do I smell bad now?"
Shen Junxi leaned over, smelled it, then shook his head and said, "It doesn't stink."
He smelled himself, but he didn't seem to be able to smell it, but he didn't take a bath for more than half a month, so it's strange that it didn't smell bad. He said: "When your mother is away at night, get some hot water for me to wash."
Shen Junxi shook his head like a rattle, and gestured: "I can't wash it, I can only wash it when the moon is out."
"I told you to go, you can go, I don't want to wash it, so it's okay to wipe it?" Song Jingwei became furious, looking at him frantically.
"..." Seeing his daughter-in-law like this, Shen Junxi didn't dare to shake his head again, he thought for a while, nodded and gestured: "Then I'll get some hot water to wipe your body, but I can't wash your hair."
This is not bad, Song Jingwei finally calmed down, and said with a long breath: "I really can't bear it..." He swore that this would be the only time in his life if he didn't wash his hair or take a bath for a month.
In the dead of night, Shen Junxi coaxed the baby to sleep, and gently put him on his bed.
"Go quickly." Seeing that he was done with work, Song Jingwei hurriedly said in a low voice, fearing that he would forget what he had promised during the day.
"En." Shen Junxi turned around and gestured to his daughter-in-law, and quietly went out with the wooden basin.
I met Yang Shi in the kitchen. Seeing him fetching hot water, Yang Shi asked, "What's the matter?"
Shen Junxi gestured: "The baby is peeing again, I'll wash his butt."
Yang nodded and said, "Yes, you have to wash it after peeing, otherwise your butt will turn red." Urine is alkaline, and the baby's skin is tender, so it can't bear it.
"En." Shen Junxi nodded in a serious manner, and quietly went back after filling up the hot water.
Song Jingwei wanted to get out of bed to scrub himself, but Shen Junxi quickly put down the hot water to stop him, and gestured: "Sit down quickly, I'll be fine."
After so many days after giving birth, most of the wounds have healed, and there is no pain when waking up, and even going to the toilet is not uncomfortable.Song Jingwei felt that he could do it, he said: "You bring the water to the clean room, and I will scrub it myself."
Shen Junxi shook his head and gestured: "No, let me help you if you want to scrub, otherwise I don't feel relieved." If he didn't watch his wife and asked her to do something out of the ordinary, he would cry without hesitation.
"What's there to worry about, you only fetched a little water, what can I do?" Song Jingwei said, how could he not know what Shen Junxi was thinking.
"It doesn't matter, I won't let you alone anyway." After Shen Junxi finished making gestures, he twisted a towel to wash his face and hands.
Song Jingwei washed his face, wiped his hands, and returned the towel to him.
When Shen Junxi screwed it up again for the second time, he gestured and said: "I want to lift your clothes." I told my daughter-in-law first, so my daughter-in-law would slap him.
"..."
It's not that she didn't ask Shen Junxi to help scrub it, there will be a second time for this kind of thing.Song Jingwei simply lifted up his clothes, lay down on his stomach and exposed his back: "Wipe carefully, I feel a thick layer of dirt on my body."
"Pfft..." Shen Junxi burst out laughing, even the hands that rubbed his back softened.His daughter-in-law was too worried, not to mention just not taking a bath for more than half a month, some people didn't take a bath for more than half a year, there may not be a layer of dirt.
"Smiling fart, wipe it quickly." He closed his eyes and said, in fact, it is quite enjoyable to have someone serve his back.
When the back was wiped and the front was about to be wiped, Song Jingwei didn't think so.It's awkward between them if they don't close their eyes.Not to mention telling Shen Junxi how to wipe it, it would be nice if he didn't refuse.
Shen Junxi knew that his daughter-in-law was uncomfortable, so he speeded up and tried to be as efficient as possible. He wiped it clean carefully, but it didn't take much time.
"I'll do the rest myself." Song Jingwei said, grabbed the towel from Shen Junxi's hand, and wiped the place under his trousers three times.
Shen Junxi silently continued twisting the hot towel for him, and wiped it for the second time.
It is said that after the first time, there will be the second time. Every night after that, Song Jingwei asked Shen Junxi to sneak in a basin of hot water for him, and wipe his body with a towel.Although it is not very useful, it is better than nothing.
After more than ten days like this, the baby Shen Chang finally reached the full moon.
This time the big family of the Shen family invited a lot of people, the ones from Xisan before must be invited, and other people who are friendly in the village have all posted posts.When the villagers heard that it was Song Jingwei's son Man Yue, they all came to celebrate and beg for a glass of wine.
When the banquet was in progress, a baby who looked exactly like Shen Junxi was carried out to meet people.Everyone who came here looked around one after another, and everyone said they looked like Shen Junxi, which made Mrs. Yang laugh from ear to ear, and said: "We also look like Brother Xi when we look at the nose and mouth, but the face looks more like his little daddy." Some."
"Like, like, it's so similar, it looks like it was carved out of a mold." The folks said in amazement, it really is too similar.
Didn't someone say before that this child is not Shen Junxi's?Right now, he is being slapped in the face brightly. His child looks exactly like his father, so there is nothing to doubt.
The eldest family of the Shen family also had the same mentality, they wished to invite all the villagers in the village today.To let them know that this child is the seed of the eldest son of the Shen family.It is estimated that after this time, there will be no such rumors in the village again, and this is the best result.
After the full moon wine, the guests gradually dispersed, and some women and men in the village stayed behind to help clean up the mess.Pei Hongxuan and Wu Xi also stayed behind, helping to clean up the leftover meals in the yard.
Seeing that Pei Hongxuan was also doing something, Mrs. Yang said quickly: "Hongxuan, don't be busy, let them do it, you should find a place to rest quickly, don't be tired."
Wu Xi also persuaded: "Listen to auntie, go and rest quickly, I'll do all the work." He had already persuaded him before, but Pei Hongxuan didn't listen to him.Now that Pei Hongxuan was pregnant, Wu Xi didn't dare to refute him, for fear that he would be angry.
"It's okay, I've only been here for a few months." Pei Hongxuan could remember that when Song Jingwei was five or six months old, he came and went on the construction site as if nothing happened.He is also a man, so he is so delicate.
"It's just the first few months that you need to pay attention to." Yang said worriedly, no matter whether it's a man or a woman, the first few months are the most likely to slip.Fortunately, nothing happened, otherwise how would she live.
"I see, ma'am, I'm going to rest now." Pei Hongxuan said helplessly, as Yang Shi stared at him so closely, he had no choice but to stop what he was doing.
"That's right, if you're bored, go sit in Jingwei's room and be intimate with the baby." Yang said with a smile, whenever she mentioned her grandson, she always had this expression.
"it is good."
In the future, there will also be a boy in the womb, less than one year older than the Benben of the eldest family of the Shen family, Pei Hongxuan thought so, and went to Song Jingwei's room.
Now that the full moon wine has been placed, Feng Shi knew that he was not to be seen, so he finally let go and said: "Your brothers and I will go back tomorrow. After walking for so long, the family can't take care of them, and I don't know about those pigs and chickens. How about it."
"Okay, I'll go get ready." Yang's first thing was to pack some things for her mother and brother to take back.
These days, Feng Shi has still given her face, and nothing has happened, so she can't help but be more generous when giving things.Especially considering her honest brother and sister-in-law, she wanted to give some good things even more.
Song Jingwei heard that Yang's natal family was leaving, and said to Shen Junxi: "Go to the drawer and get ten taels of silver, and ask your mother to bring them back."
Shen Junxi gestured hesitantly: "Return the silver, I already gave ten taels last time." In his opinion, ten taels is already a lot. In the past, when their family was added up, they might not be able to squeeze out so much to grandma's family.
"Give it, it's better than letting them nag your mother." Song Jingwei knows Feng's kind of person too well, he is a master who has money and everything is easy to negotiate.As long as you have money, she thinks highly of you, no matter who you are.
"En." Shen Junxi persuaded casually, and if he couldn't be persuaded, he followed suit.Anyway, he could never refute the decision made by his wife.Unless there are some principled issues, such as washing your hair and taking a bath during confinement, this is a major matter that cannot be compromised.
When Yang saw that his daughter-in-law had given money, he was slow to pack things.She didn't dare to buckle it down, so she had to erase everything that had been cleaned up before.So it was only ten taels of silver, and nothing else.
Fortunately, Feng Shi is a person who can do everything when he has money. Yang Shi gave her ten taels of silver, and she was also satisfied and said nothing.
"This money was given to you by my daughter-in-law. He is a generous person. He gave 20 taels last time." Yang said, so that Feng would know that Song Jingwei is good, and don't mutter in his heart. of.
Feng smiled contentedly and said: "He is a filial child, you are blessed to be a mother-in-law."
Yang curled her lips, looking down on her mother's mentality, but couldn't help laughing, yes, she is blessed to be a mother-in-law.
Because there were many things in the family during the full moon, Song Jingwei did not inform Yuan Qingsui, the only friend here, so after Feng and the others left, he asked Shen Junxi to deliver the letter.
Yuan Qingsui learned that Song Jingwei had given birth to a son, and the full moon wine had already passed, so he hurriedly prepared a gift for the baby and came to visit him.What's more, his old man also came over to join in the fun when he heard about the happy event.
Yuan Jinyun wanted to see the baby as soon as he came, and he was very happy when he saw it. He hugged Xiaobenben and said: "This baby is very good, very good, and I like it very much. I wonder if he has a name?"
"Father..." Yuan Qingsui shouted with embarrassment on his face, knowing that his father loved naming people, the interest came up again.In the past, it was fine if they were children of relatives, but this one is a child of a friend's family, so we shouldn't go too far.
"The name has already been chosen." Shen Dongming said happily: "The first name is Shen Chang, and the younger name is Benben." He had no idea that Yuan Jinyun wanted to name his grandson.
"Oh? Shen Chang isn't bad, either." Yuan Jinyun said regretfully. It's a pity that he got such a good name, otherwise he could justifiably ask someone to change his name.
"Hehe." Yuan Qingsui heaved a sigh of relief, and winked helplessly at Song Jingwei.
Song Jingwei also smiled, seeing that his hand was healed, and asked: "Has your hand healed?" It has been hurting since I met him, and it has been several months.
"It's ready, but it's not very flexible when playing with the gun." Speaking of this arm, Yuan Qingsui said: "In about ten or eight days, I will go back to the barracks to work as an errand."
"Not here anymore?" Song Jingwei asked in surprise.
"Not here anymore." Yuan Qingsui was also quite reluctant, he lived here with the old man well, he said with a smile: "Come again in summer, come and stay with my father."
Song Jing nodded slightly and said, "Okay, you're here in summer, and I'll treat you to some delicious food and drink."
Yuan Qingsui laughed loudly and said, "What is delicious and what is delicious?"
"The delicious ones are lotus root, fish and shrimp." Song Jing smiled and said, "As for the delicious ones, it should be good tea. I don't have good wine here." Because he himself doesn't like to drink alcohol, and he had already drank enough for entertainment. Not drinking alcohol is also for the sake of my own stomach.
"Okay, I'll wait." Yuan Qing nodded, he was waiting to come back this summer.
"Will the old man still live here?"
"Yes." Yuan Qingsui looked at the old man having fun with the baby, and said, "If Jing Wei has time, please help me see the old man more, I'm afraid he will be alone."
Song Jingwei nodded without hesitation and agreed: "Don't worry, I will take the baby to see him when I have time in the future, or ask him to come out for a walk."
"Okay, thank you." Yuan Qingsui said solemnly.
In fact, there are not many free days.After Song Jingwei was out of confinement, it was already February and March.The lotus pond next to the tea garden had been dug long ago, and he was thinking about planting lotus roots.Generally, lotus roots are planted around February and March, but at this time they have not found lotus seeds.
No one in the big house of the Shen family has experience in growing lotus roots, so Song Jingwei had to find out by himself.
This morning, the baby just woke up and wet the bed.Song Jingwei touched his wet little butt, called Shen Junxi over and said, "He's peed again, why has he peed so much lately?" It was the fourth time after the three times last night. In the past, it was twice at most in one night.
"Maybe he ate a lot last night?" Shen Junxi gestured uncertainly.
"Every night is still different." Need to get up to feed once in the middle of the night.
"No." The young man smiled and said, "I was fed twice last night." Anyway, Song Jingwei fell asleep, he didn't know.
Song Jingwei looked at the young man silently, and skillfully changed the baby into a dry diaper. For so many days, Shen Junxi seemed to be a qualified father, taking good care of the baby, even more attentive than Yang.No matter who sees it, they can know how much he dotes on the baby.
"Shen Junxi, I have to go out for a while."
Shen Junxi patted the baby's movements, paused, and looked at Song Jingwei suspiciously.
"The lotus pond has been dug. February and March are the time to plant lotus roots. I'm going to find lotus seeds." Song Jingwei looked at the young man and said.
"Going soon?" The young man stared at him and gestured.
"Well, I'm in a hurry. If I can, I'll leave tomorrow." Song Jingwei said, he has always been a vigorous and resolute person.
"..." Shen Junxi lowered his eyelids habitually, holding the well-behaved baby in his hands, not knowing what to do.He didn't want Song Jingwei to go out, their baby was still so young.
"I just went out to look for lotus seeds." The other party looked like he was going to fly away, leaving Song Jingwei speechless.
"The baby is still so young." Shen Junxi gestured, eyes full of hope that he would leave.What's more, I still leave tomorrow, how can it be done?
"I didn't go there for a long time. I'll be back soon." Song Jingwei touched the baby's face and said, "I'm relieved to have you taking care of him." It's Shen Junxi.
"..." Shen Junxi couldn't think of a reason to stop him, after all, the daughter-in-law worked so hard for this family.If you insist on stopping it, you can't justify it, it seems so selfish.
"It's decided like that." Song Jingwei saw that he was silent, and said: "I will see the two elders later, and I will tell them that when I am not around in the future, the baby will take care of you."
"..." Shen Junxi opened his mouth, then closed it tightly again, he really had no reason to say no.Even if he said it, Song Jingwei would not listen to him, this is the most powerless fact.
After a while, when Yang Shi and Shen Dongming came to feed the baby, Song Jingwei told them about going out.
Hearing that their daughter-in-law was going to go out, both Shen Dongming and Yang said in a daze, "So anxious? Are you just confinement?" According to their thinking, the daughter-in-law needs to rest for one more month, at least to go back Lie for more than half a month.
"Well. I can't catch up with the time, and the lotus roots will be planted soon." The workers started working a little over a month after the year, and several lotus ponds he brought to the Planning Office have been dug out, waiting to be planted.
"Can't someone else go about this matter? Do you have to go by yourself?" Yang thought worriedly. It's not good for the daughter-in-law to go out just after the child's full moon.
"I don't worry about others. They don't know the variety and effect I want. I have to go and see for myself." Song Jingwei said. Before he asked Zhang Benqing to help him pay attention, Zhang Benqing wrote back to him and said two addresses, one is The lotus seed and the tea seed, he had to go there himself.
"In this case, how about letting brother Xi accompany you?" Shen Dongming said, if the daughter-in-law insists on going, she can only let Shen Junxi accompany him.Otherwise, how could they rest assured.
Hearing this, Shen Junxi nodded and gestured, "If my daughter-in-law wants to go out, I'll go with her." He decided that no matter where his wife went, he just followed, so that he didn't have to feel empty and worry all day long.
Knowing her daughter-in-law's temperament, Yang knew that she could not change Song Jingwei's mind. She said, "That's right, let Brother Xi go with you. You can rest assured that the baby will be taken care of by us." Anyway, they don't have to go to the field now, Two people can concentrate on taking care of the baby.
Everyone proposed to let Shen Junxi go with him, Song Jingwei glanced at the young man, if he was not allowed to go, no one in the family would agree.He weighed it in his heart, in fact, it is not impossible to let Shen Junxi follow.It's the baby here, without Shen Junxi to take care of him, he is a little worried.It's not that she doesn't worry that Yang and Shen Dongming can't take good care of her, but she subconsciously feels that Shen Junxi is the best to take care of the baby.
Seeing this, Yang said: "The daughter-in-law is worried about the baby. She is used to being served by his father, so it is not good for us to take care of her suddenly." She smiled and said: "What's the matter, I will get used to it after a night or two , children are like this." Now that the daughter-in-law is tied to this family, they feel more at ease.Song Jingwei in the past felt like he had nothing to do with this family, and always made them feel uneasy, as if he would leave at any time.
Sure enough, having a child is stability, which is a good thing.
"It's not that I'm worried..." Song Jingwei felt a little embarrassed after seeing through his thoughts.For the sake of this son, he gradually became a little different.
"It's good not to worry, you just go, go early and return early." Yang said with a smile, and felt that there are more daughter-in-laws than before, and they are popular.
Song Jingwei looked at this, then at that, nodded and said, "Yes."
It is Song Jingwei's style to leave as soon as he says.
On the fifth day after the baby's full moon, they embarked on the journey to Qingping County together.According to Zhang Benqing, this place with good lotus root is at the border of their county, not far from Lihua Town.Once he went to the countryside to inspect and ate at a villager's house. He ate that kind of lotus root, which was delicious.After asking the source, I found out that I bought it. The old man who sold lotus root was from the next county.
The villager said: "There are not many lotus roots of this kind. That is to say, the old man planted a pond. Although everyone thinks it is delicious, they are used to eating it. No one thought of planting it by themselves."
Thinking of Song Jingwei's request, Zhang Benqing asked more carefully, "I don't know how the output is?" Knowing that the output was not bad, he immediately gave Song Jingwei a divorce letter and told him about this place.
It was still too hard to go out in a bullock cart, Song Jingwei rented a carriage and a driver, at least they could shelter from the wind and rain, and they would sit inside to be warmer.
Shen Junxi was afraid that he would catch a cold, so when he went out, he brought not only a thick cloak, but also a hand warmer.There was a charcoal fire in the stove, so it was very warm in my arms.They had never seen such an exquisite thing before.After Song Jingwei came here, Shen Junxi went to the town to buy this because he was afraid that he would be cold.
"En." As soon as he got in the car, Shen Junxi stuffed Nuan Nuan into Song Jingwei's arms, then found a blanket, and carefully covered his legs, so that it would be warmer.
"I'm not very cold." Song Jingwei said, but he didn't refuse the stove and blanket that the young man stuffed over.He felt that after giving birth to Clumsy, his body has improved, and now he sleeps like a stove at night with warmth.
The young man sat beside him quietly, and after a while he gestured and asked, "Are you hungry?"
They brought a lot of dry food and snacks. Fortunately, the weather was cold and these things were not easy to break.But dry food is not very tasty, Shen Junxi always eats dry food by himself, and gives Song Jingwei softer snacks.
Seeing that he was eating hard, Song Jingwei said, "I can't eat so much, you should have some snacks too."
Shen Junxi originally wanted to wave his hand and say no, but Song Jingwei said: "You can go down to eat when you get to the town. Do you think I like dim sum very much? What's delicious if it's cold and hard?"
The dim sum is obviously soft and loose... The young man stuffed a piece into his mouth and chewed, thinking to himself.
"You think I'm lying to you, don't you?" Song Jing smiled slightly: "You are a person who can satisfy what you have, can my requirements be the same as yours?"
"..." Thinking of his daughter-in-law's background, Shen Junxi silently put away those thoughts.That's right, the daughter-in-law may have gotten tired of eating something delicious to them.
So when they got to town, they went down to eat and pick up something else they could eat on the way.After walking for a whole day, Qingping County has arrived, but the address mentioned in Zhang Benqing's letter has not yet arrived.
Song Jingwei came down and asked a villager, and the man said, this place is at the foot of the mountain, just go straight along this road.
Believe the evil of the villager, they didn't arrive until midnight.
Indeed, there is only one family, two houses, and a pond at the door, which is very easy to identify.And this family has a dog, and they heard the dog barking when they came.
Shen Junxi got out of the carriage first, helped Song Jingwei down, and heard him say: "Go and call the door." Although it was quite disturbing at such a late hour, there was nothing to do.Had they known it was so far away, they would have waited until tomorrow to come.
"En." Shen Junxi carefully led him, and slowly walked on the cobbled path.
Concerned about the big dog at the door, they dare not get too close.Still two or three meters away, Song Jingwei called out, "Is there anyone there?"
The dog barked so loudly, it was estimated that the people inside had already woken up.They waited for a while, only to see a light in the house.Then, a small old man came out with an oil lamp.
I don't know what he did, but the big dog at the door suddenly became obedient and sat on the ground without saying a word.
"Old man, can I borrow a night here?" Song Jingwei said as he took two steps forward, seeing an old man with white hair but bright eyes.
"..." The old man looked at them, nodded at them, turned around and went in again.
Song Jingwei paused suspiciously, and followed in.When they passed by the big dog, they were not attacked, and it was obvious that they were just obedient and sensible dogs.This dog reminded both Song Jingwei and Shen Junxi of Xiao Hei at home, who was also obedient and sensible.
The stoic coachman followed them, looking restrained and frightened as he passed the dog.
"Old man, do you live alone?" Song Jingwei asked, there are only two rooms here.
"..." The old man put down the oil lamp and gestured at him a few times.
Both Song Jingwei and Shen Junxi were stunned for a moment, and then nodded clearly. It turned out that the old man was dumb, which was really a coincidence.
Shen Junxi smiled and gestured to the dumb uncle: "Old man, this is my wife, I'm really sorry to disturb you late at night."
The mute gestured in surprise, "Are you a mute?"
Shen Junxi nodded and gestured: "Yes."
The mute showed regret, and gestured: "It's a pity."
Shen Junxi shook his head, gestured and said: "It's not a pity, I am always happy when I am content."
"..." The mute grinned, then led them into a room, and gestured: "There is a wooden couch here, if you want to rest, you can only rest here."
Song Jing nodded slightly and said, "Thank you old man, we brought blankets and cloaks, and this wooden couch is enough."
The mute went out with the oil lamp, pushed the coachman as he passed by, and pointed to his bed outside.There is no spare room at home, the coachman can only make do with him tonight.The honest and dull coachman went to bed sullenly and went to sleep. He has been running around all year round, and it is very good to have a bed to sleep on.
Inside the room, Shen Junxi groped in the dark to spread the blanket.Song Jingwei lay on it, covered with a big cloak, it was still warm.He moved out of his position, opened a corner and said, "Come up quickly."
Shen Junxi was stunned in the dark, then sat down and slowly lay down beside his wife.Because of the limited width of the cloak, they had to get close.Shen Junxi turned sideways and gently hugged the person around him, the body temperature of the two blended together, and quickly warmed the bed, but they didn't feel cold.
Song Jingwei turned a blind eye to the embrace of this special situation and let him go.
Since moving to a new house, the two have slept in separate beds, and Shen Junxi and Song Jingwei have never slept together so closely.He rested his chin on the back of his wife's neck, and gently sniffed the fragrance of this man's body, feeling more like a milk baby than before.
It still smells good, the smell is more mixed with his son, Shen Junxi smells more at ease and more down-to-earth than before.
It was dawn in a blink of an eye, Song Jingwei woke up in a daze, with Shen Junxi's arm resting on his body, he pushed and said, "Get up."
After Shen Junxi woke up, he moved his body and felt that half of his body was numb...
"Are you numb?" Song Jingwei saw that his expression was not right, as if he was enduring some pain.
"Hmm..." After sleeping half the night with his wife in his arms, he was indeed numb.
Without further ado, Song Jingwei pressed on him vigorously, and then said, "Get up and walk, it will be fine in a while." It's no wonder that he doesn't feel numb if he sleeps in one position for a long time.
"..." Shen Junxi was in distress, he really wanted to scream just now, but unfortunately he couldn't make a sound.
When he got better here, he walked out the door and saw Song Jingwei helping the dumb man make breakfast outside, sometimes passing firewood and sometimes lotus root, he seemed to be much more diligent than when he was at home.
He stood aside and listened quietly, only to hear Song Jingwei say: "The lotus root in my old man's house is very good, did you grow it yourself?" The dumb uncle nodded and pointed to the pond outside, Song Jingwei said again: "I want to do it too. Planting lotus root, I wonder if it is difficult to plant this lotus root?"
The dumb man has been growing lotus roots for decades, so he immediately waved to him, it was not difficult at all.
"It's not difficult for you, but it must be difficult for a layman like me." Song Jingwei looked at the lotus root with new leaves growing in the pool, and said, "I want to grow lotus root. I dug a few mouthfuls near my home. The pond is [-] acres wide, how much lotus root can you harvest in a year from a pond of [-] acres? How much money can you make?"
Apparently the mute was taken aback, and gestured: "Twenty acres?" The pond in front of his house is only about one mu, and a lot of lotus roots are harvested every year.
Song Jingwei nodded, and the dumb uncle gestured and said, "Twenty acres is a lot, you can harvest a lot of lotus roots, and you can make a lot of money." His family has no other relatives or children, so he just leans on the door in front of the door. Pond live.
Seeing the gleam in the mute's eyes, Song Jing smiled and had breakfast first.
The lotus root at this time is actually out of season, and it is not particularly delicious.But the lotus root from Dumber's house is indeed as Zhang Benqing said, very good, with a moderate taste, sweet and soft taste.This kind of lotus root can be eaten steamed or fried, and it can be cooked in soup, stewed, braised, etc.
When the first piece of lotus root was eaten, Song Jingwei had already decided that he would grow this kind of lotus root in his lotus pond.
"Dumb." He said to the dumb: "To tell you the truth, I came here this time because of the reputation, and I came here specially to eat your lotus root." He pointed to the lotus root on the plate and said: "It's delicious. I like it very much. I hope my family's lotus pond will also grow this kind of lotus root. Can you sell me the lotus seeds?"
When listening to the first half of Song Jingwei's sentence, the dumb man smiled, but after hearing the second half, he waved his hands with a straight face and gestured: "My lotus roots don't sell lotus seeds."
Song Jingwei was a little surprised, he straightened his mind and said, "Why don't you sell it, can you tell me about it?"
The mute hesitated for a while, then gestured and said, "I am a single old man with no family and no son. I rely on
Feng's also disliked Song Jingwei's pampering, always needing someone to take care of her, but she didn't dare to say anything.She is not familiar with Song Jingwei yet, so she won't provoke him easily.
She also couldn't understand Yang's carefulness in raising children, so she said directly: "They are all rural children, and they are not noble people. Aren't we here to raise them casually? You are so precious. It’s not good, don’t you know that children need to be raised cheaply to be able to survive?”
This happened to be heard by Song Jingwei, and he immediately said: "I don't know if other people's children are expensive or not. Anyway, my children are expensive. If you have any objections, please teach your children, don't use my children." Say something nasty."
Not to mention Feng's, even Yang's face felt hot, what her mother said was really unlucky, what to support and not to support, is this something that can be said?
That night, Song Jingwei said to Shen Junxi coldly: "Tell your grandma and uncle tomorrow to let them go home."
Shen Junxi nodded silently, his daughter-in-law is not feeling well these days, he takes it to heart, but in fact he may not be feeling better himself.His grandmother, Feng Shi, always looked at him strangely, and she almost didn't say directly: "How can you be better than others, why did you get lucky, have money, a wife, and a big fat son."
The next day, Shen Junxi first discussed with Yang Shi about grandma Feng Shi.He gestured to his mother, "Grandma and uncle, when will you go back?"
Seeing his son's expression, Yang knew what his son was thinking. In fact, she herself was very troubled for so many days. She said, "I'll tell your grandma and uncle." They stayed at home for five days It's enough time to think about it. There is still a family to take care of on the other side of my mother's house, so how can I leave for so long.
Thinking about this, Yang went to Feng and told her what he wanted.
Upon hearing this, Feng said: "I told you to let your younger brother and sister-in-law go back first, but you insisted on not agreeing, and now you are talking about what to do."
Yang said: "Is it the same for you and your younger brothers to go back together now?"
"That can't be done." Feng said: "My great-grandson hasn't eaten the full moon wine yet, how can I go back?"
Well, the full moon wine is pulled out again, Yang folded her fingers and counted, there are still a long time.She was silent for a while, and said: "It's not that I don't want you to drink full moon wine... It's just that you live here and live well. You don't need to worry about many things in our house. You just need to eat and sleep well. .”
"What do you mean? Do you think I'm meddling?" Feng Shi thought for a while, and said, "It was your daughter-in-law who complained to you, didn't I just say something wrong yesterday, and he didn't care? "She also knew that she said something wrong yesterday and caught Song Jingwei's eyes.
"It's not something that can't be done. Think about it for yourself. If I came to your house and told you everything, would you be happy?" Yang said straightforwardly, and stopped beating around Feng.Her mother's temperament is like this, she thinks she's doing a good job when you keep quiet with her.
"Hey, do you think I'm pointing fingers?" Feng Shi stared at Yang Shi with her eyes wide open, and she habitually wanted to twist Yang's ears.
"Mother! This is not your home, this is mine!" Yang Shi also crossed her hips and looked at Feng Shi.Now she is no longer that little girl who is slaughtered by others. She has a husband and a son, a daughter-in-law and a grandson, and she has everything. She is full of confidence!
"You!" Feng never expected that the always cowardly second daughter was no longer afraid of herself, and she was so angry that her face turned red.
"Can you tell me, from now on, should we stay honestly and prepare to drink the full moon wine, or pack up our things and go home with my younger brother?" Yang Shi asked while the iron was hot, this time no matter what, there was a result.
"Me!" Feng Shi stuck her neck and couldn't say a word of cruelty. She was so angry with her second daughter that she wanted to slap her, but how could she do it today? If she wanted to stay, she had no choice but to say: " I don’t care about your head office, right? It’s as if I love to take care of you, but it’s too late for me to take care of my own house!”
"That's just right, you don't need to worry about our family, our family is fine now." Yang said not to be outdone, stretched her neck and choked her back.
"Huh!" Feng snorted coldly, she had nothing to rely on, as long as she still wanted to get along with her second daughter, she didn't dare to go too far.
From that day on, the family finally lived in peace.
However, the matter still did not meet Song Jingwei's requirements, so Shen Junxi was a little hesitant, and when he got the news from his mother, he went back and gestured to his daughter-in-law: "Although they didn't leave, they have already promised their mother that they will not meddle in their own business."
Song Jingwei didn't have to drive people away, he said: "As long as you don't point fingers in front of my eyes, I don't care."
"Yeah." Shen Junxi smiled when he heard the words, and there must be nothing after pointing fingers.
The days of confinement go through day by day, and no one wants to hurry up to the full moon more than Song Jingwei.He hasn't bathed or washed his hair for a long time now, and he feels that his whole body stinks.When he couldn't take it anymore, he would ask Shen Junxi, "Have you heard, do I smell bad now?"
Shen Junxi leaned over, smelled it, then shook his head and said, "It doesn't stink."
He smelled himself, but he didn't seem to be able to smell it, but he didn't take a bath for more than half a month, so it's strange that it didn't smell bad. He said: "When your mother is away at night, get some hot water for me to wash."
Shen Junxi shook his head like a rattle, and gestured: "I can't wash it, I can only wash it when the moon is out."
"I told you to go, you can go, I don't want to wash it, so it's okay to wipe it?" Song Jingwei became furious, looking at him frantically.
"..." Seeing his daughter-in-law like this, Shen Junxi didn't dare to shake his head again, he thought for a while, nodded and gestured: "Then I'll get some hot water to wipe your body, but I can't wash your hair."
This is not bad, Song Jingwei finally calmed down, and said with a long breath: "I really can't bear it..." He swore that this would be the only time in his life if he didn't wash his hair or take a bath for a month.
In the dead of night, Shen Junxi coaxed the baby to sleep, and gently put him on his bed.
"Go quickly." Seeing that he was done with work, Song Jingwei hurriedly said in a low voice, fearing that he would forget what he had promised during the day.
"En." Shen Junxi turned around and gestured to his daughter-in-law, and quietly went out with the wooden basin.
I met Yang Shi in the kitchen. Seeing him fetching hot water, Yang Shi asked, "What's the matter?"
Shen Junxi gestured: "The baby is peeing again, I'll wash his butt."
Yang nodded and said, "Yes, you have to wash it after peeing, otherwise your butt will turn red." Urine is alkaline, and the baby's skin is tender, so it can't bear it.
"En." Shen Junxi nodded in a serious manner, and quietly went back after filling up the hot water.
Song Jingwei wanted to get out of bed to scrub himself, but Shen Junxi quickly put down the hot water to stop him, and gestured: "Sit down quickly, I'll be fine."
After so many days after giving birth, most of the wounds have healed, and there is no pain when waking up, and even going to the toilet is not uncomfortable.Song Jingwei felt that he could do it, he said: "You bring the water to the clean room, and I will scrub it myself."
Shen Junxi shook his head and gestured: "No, let me help you if you want to scrub, otherwise I don't feel relieved." If he didn't watch his wife and asked her to do something out of the ordinary, he would cry without hesitation.
"What's there to worry about, you only fetched a little water, what can I do?" Song Jingwei said, how could he not know what Shen Junxi was thinking.
"It doesn't matter, I won't let you alone anyway." After Shen Junxi finished making gestures, he twisted a towel to wash his face and hands.
Song Jingwei washed his face, wiped his hands, and returned the towel to him.
When Shen Junxi screwed it up again for the second time, he gestured and said: "I want to lift your clothes." I told my daughter-in-law first, so my daughter-in-law would slap him.
"..."
It's not that she didn't ask Shen Junxi to help scrub it, there will be a second time for this kind of thing.Song Jingwei simply lifted up his clothes, lay down on his stomach and exposed his back: "Wipe carefully, I feel a thick layer of dirt on my body."
"Pfft..." Shen Junxi burst out laughing, even the hands that rubbed his back softened.His daughter-in-law was too worried, not to mention just not taking a bath for more than half a month, some people didn't take a bath for more than half a year, there may not be a layer of dirt.
"Smiling fart, wipe it quickly." He closed his eyes and said, in fact, it is quite enjoyable to have someone serve his back.
When the back was wiped and the front was about to be wiped, Song Jingwei didn't think so.It's awkward between them if they don't close their eyes.Not to mention telling Shen Junxi how to wipe it, it would be nice if he didn't refuse.
Shen Junxi knew that his daughter-in-law was uncomfortable, so he speeded up and tried to be as efficient as possible. He wiped it clean carefully, but it didn't take much time.
"I'll do the rest myself." Song Jingwei said, grabbed the towel from Shen Junxi's hand, and wiped the place under his trousers three times.
Shen Junxi silently continued twisting the hot towel for him, and wiped it for the second time.
It is said that after the first time, there will be the second time. Every night after that, Song Jingwei asked Shen Junxi to sneak in a basin of hot water for him, and wipe his body with a towel.Although it is not very useful, it is better than nothing.
After more than ten days like this, the baby Shen Chang finally reached the full moon.
This time the big family of the Shen family invited a lot of people, the ones from Xisan before must be invited, and other people who are friendly in the village have all posted posts.When the villagers heard that it was Song Jingwei's son Man Yue, they all came to celebrate and beg for a glass of wine.
When the banquet was in progress, a baby who looked exactly like Shen Junxi was carried out to meet people.Everyone who came here looked around one after another, and everyone said they looked like Shen Junxi, which made Mrs. Yang laugh from ear to ear, and said: "We also look like Brother Xi when we look at the nose and mouth, but the face looks more like his little daddy." Some."
"Like, like, it's so similar, it looks like it was carved out of a mold." The folks said in amazement, it really is too similar.
Didn't someone say before that this child is not Shen Junxi's?Right now, he is being slapped in the face brightly. His child looks exactly like his father, so there is nothing to doubt.
The eldest family of the Shen family also had the same mentality, they wished to invite all the villagers in the village today.To let them know that this child is the seed of the eldest son of the Shen family.It is estimated that after this time, there will be no such rumors in the village again, and this is the best result.
After the full moon wine, the guests gradually dispersed, and some women and men in the village stayed behind to help clean up the mess.Pei Hongxuan and Wu Xi also stayed behind, helping to clean up the leftover meals in the yard.
Seeing that Pei Hongxuan was also doing something, Mrs. Yang said quickly: "Hongxuan, don't be busy, let them do it, you should find a place to rest quickly, don't be tired."
Wu Xi also persuaded: "Listen to auntie, go and rest quickly, I'll do all the work." He had already persuaded him before, but Pei Hongxuan didn't listen to him.Now that Pei Hongxuan was pregnant, Wu Xi didn't dare to refute him, for fear that he would be angry.
"It's okay, I've only been here for a few months." Pei Hongxuan could remember that when Song Jingwei was five or six months old, he came and went on the construction site as if nothing happened.He is also a man, so he is so delicate.
"It's just the first few months that you need to pay attention to." Yang said worriedly, no matter whether it's a man or a woman, the first few months are the most likely to slip.Fortunately, nothing happened, otherwise how would she live.
"I see, ma'am, I'm going to rest now." Pei Hongxuan said helplessly, as Yang Shi stared at him so closely, he had no choice but to stop what he was doing.
"That's right, if you're bored, go sit in Jingwei's room and be intimate with the baby." Yang said with a smile, whenever she mentioned her grandson, she always had this expression.
"it is good."
In the future, there will also be a boy in the womb, less than one year older than the Benben of the eldest family of the Shen family, Pei Hongxuan thought so, and went to Song Jingwei's room.
Now that the full moon wine has been placed, Feng Shi knew that he was not to be seen, so he finally let go and said: "Your brothers and I will go back tomorrow. After walking for so long, the family can't take care of them, and I don't know about those pigs and chickens. How about it."
"Okay, I'll go get ready." Yang's first thing was to pack some things for her mother and brother to take back.
These days, Feng Shi has still given her face, and nothing has happened, so she can't help but be more generous when giving things.Especially considering her honest brother and sister-in-law, she wanted to give some good things even more.
Song Jingwei heard that Yang's natal family was leaving, and said to Shen Junxi: "Go to the drawer and get ten taels of silver, and ask your mother to bring them back."
Shen Junxi gestured hesitantly: "Return the silver, I already gave ten taels last time." In his opinion, ten taels is already a lot. In the past, when their family was added up, they might not be able to squeeze out so much to grandma's family.
"Give it, it's better than letting them nag your mother." Song Jingwei knows Feng's kind of person too well, he is a master who has money and everything is easy to negotiate.As long as you have money, she thinks highly of you, no matter who you are.
"En." Shen Junxi persuaded casually, and if he couldn't be persuaded, he followed suit.Anyway, he could never refute the decision made by his wife.Unless there are some principled issues, such as washing your hair and taking a bath during confinement, this is a major matter that cannot be compromised.
When Yang saw that his daughter-in-law had given money, he was slow to pack things.She didn't dare to buckle it down, so she had to erase everything that had been cleaned up before.So it was only ten taels of silver, and nothing else.
Fortunately, Feng Shi is a person who can do everything when he has money. Yang Shi gave her ten taels of silver, and she was also satisfied and said nothing.
"This money was given to you by my daughter-in-law. He is a generous person. He gave 20 taels last time." Yang said, so that Feng would know that Song Jingwei is good, and don't mutter in his heart. of.
Feng smiled contentedly and said: "He is a filial child, you are blessed to be a mother-in-law."
Yang curled her lips, looking down on her mother's mentality, but couldn't help laughing, yes, she is blessed to be a mother-in-law.
Because there were many things in the family during the full moon, Song Jingwei did not inform Yuan Qingsui, the only friend here, so after Feng and the others left, he asked Shen Junxi to deliver the letter.
Yuan Qingsui learned that Song Jingwei had given birth to a son, and the full moon wine had already passed, so he hurriedly prepared a gift for the baby and came to visit him.What's more, his old man also came over to join in the fun when he heard about the happy event.
Yuan Jinyun wanted to see the baby as soon as he came, and he was very happy when he saw it. He hugged Xiaobenben and said: "This baby is very good, very good, and I like it very much. I wonder if he has a name?"
"Father..." Yuan Qingsui shouted with embarrassment on his face, knowing that his father loved naming people, the interest came up again.In the past, it was fine if they were children of relatives, but this one is a child of a friend's family, so we shouldn't go too far.
"The name has already been chosen." Shen Dongming said happily: "The first name is Shen Chang, and the younger name is Benben." He had no idea that Yuan Jinyun wanted to name his grandson.
"Oh? Shen Chang isn't bad, either." Yuan Jinyun said regretfully. It's a pity that he got such a good name, otherwise he could justifiably ask someone to change his name.
"Hehe." Yuan Qingsui heaved a sigh of relief, and winked helplessly at Song Jingwei.
Song Jingwei also smiled, seeing that his hand was healed, and asked: "Has your hand healed?" It has been hurting since I met him, and it has been several months.
"It's ready, but it's not very flexible when playing with the gun." Speaking of this arm, Yuan Qingsui said: "In about ten or eight days, I will go back to the barracks to work as an errand."
"Not here anymore?" Song Jingwei asked in surprise.
"Not here anymore." Yuan Qingsui was also quite reluctant, he lived here with the old man well, he said with a smile: "Come again in summer, come and stay with my father."
Song Jing nodded slightly and said, "Okay, you're here in summer, and I'll treat you to some delicious food and drink."
Yuan Qingsui laughed loudly and said, "What is delicious and what is delicious?"
"The delicious ones are lotus root, fish and shrimp." Song Jing smiled and said, "As for the delicious ones, it should be good tea. I don't have good wine here." Because he himself doesn't like to drink alcohol, and he had already drank enough for entertainment. Not drinking alcohol is also for the sake of my own stomach.
"Okay, I'll wait." Yuan Qing nodded, he was waiting to come back this summer.
"Will the old man still live here?"
"Yes." Yuan Qingsui looked at the old man having fun with the baby, and said, "If Jing Wei has time, please help me see the old man more, I'm afraid he will be alone."
Song Jingwei nodded without hesitation and agreed: "Don't worry, I will take the baby to see him when I have time in the future, or ask him to come out for a walk."
"Okay, thank you." Yuan Qingsui said solemnly.
In fact, there are not many free days.After Song Jingwei was out of confinement, it was already February and March.The lotus pond next to the tea garden had been dug long ago, and he was thinking about planting lotus roots.Generally, lotus roots are planted around February and March, but at this time they have not found lotus seeds.
No one in the big house of the Shen family has experience in growing lotus roots, so Song Jingwei had to find out by himself.
This morning, the baby just woke up and wet the bed.Song Jingwei touched his wet little butt, called Shen Junxi over and said, "He's peed again, why has he peed so much lately?" It was the fourth time after the three times last night. In the past, it was twice at most in one night.
"Maybe he ate a lot last night?" Shen Junxi gestured uncertainly.
"Every night is still different." Need to get up to feed once in the middle of the night.
"No." The young man smiled and said, "I was fed twice last night." Anyway, Song Jingwei fell asleep, he didn't know.
Song Jingwei looked at the young man silently, and skillfully changed the baby into a dry diaper. For so many days, Shen Junxi seemed to be a qualified father, taking good care of the baby, even more attentive than Yang.No matter who sees it, they can know how much he dotes on the baby.
"Shen Junxi, I have to go out for a while."
Shen Junxi patted the baby's movements, paused, and looked at Song Jingwei suspiciously.
"The lotus pond has been dug. February and March are the time to plant lotus roots. I'm going to find lotus seeds." Song Jingwei looked at the young man and said.
"Going soon?" The young man stared at him and gestured.
"Well, I'm in a hurry. If I can, I'll leave tomorrow." Song Jingwei said, he has always been a vigorous and resolute person.
"..." Shen Junxi lowered his eyelids habitually, holding the well-behaved baby in his hands, not knowing what to do.He didn't want Song Jingwei to go out, their baby was still so young.
"I just went out to look for lotus seeds." The other party looked like he was going to fly away, leaving Song Jingwei speechless.
"The baby is still so young." Shen Junxi gestured, eyes full of hope that he would leave.What's more, I still leave tomorrow, how can it be done?
"I didn't go there for a long time. I'll be back soon." Song Jingwei touched the baby's face and said, "I'm relieved to have you taking care of him." It's Shen Junxi.
"..." Shen Junxi couldn't think of a reason to stop him, after all, the daughter-in-law worked so hard for this family.If you insist on stopping it, you can't justify it, it seems so selfish.
"It's decided like that." Song Jingwei saw that he was silent, and said: "I will see the two elders later, and I will tell them that when I am not around in the future, the baby will take care of you."
"..." Shen Junxi opened his mouth, then closed it tightly again, he really had no reason to say no.Even if he said it, Song Jingwei would not listen to him, this is the most powerless fact.
After a while, when Yang Shi and Shen Dongming came to feed the baby, Song Jingwei told them about going out.
Hearing that their daughter-in-law was going to go out, both Shen Dongming and Yang said in a daze, "So anxious? Are you just confinement?" According to their thinking, the daughter-in-law needs to rest for one more month, at least to go back Lie for more than half a month.
"Well. I can't catch up with the time, and the lotus roots will be planted soon." The workers started working a little over a month after the year, and several lotus ponds he brought to the Planning Office have been dug out, waiting to be planted.
"Can't someone else go about this matter? Do you have to go by yourself?" Yang thought worriedly. It's not good for the daughter-in-law to go out just after the child's full moon.
"I don't worry about others. They don't know the variety and effect I want. I have to go and see for myself." Song Jingwei said. Before he asked Zhang Benqing to help him pay attention, Zhang Benqing wrote back to him and said two addresses, one is The lotus seed and the tea seed, he had to go there himself.
"In this case, how about letting brother Xi accompany you?" Shen Dongming said, if the daughter-in-law insists on going, she can only let Shen Junxi accompany him.Otherwise, how could they rest assured.
Hearing this, Shen Junxi nodded and gestured, "If my daughter-in-law wants to go out, I'll go with her." He decided that no matter where his wife went, he just followed, so that he didn't have to feel empty and worry all day long.
Knowing her daughter-in-law's temperament, Yang knew that she could not change Song Jingwei's mind. She said, "That's right, let Brother Xi go with you. You can rest assured that the baby will be taken care of by us." Anyway, they don't have to go to the field now, Two people can concentrate on taking care of the baby.
Everyone proposed to let Shen Junxi go with him, Song Jingwei glanced at the young man, if he was not allowed to go, no one in the family would agree.He weighed it in his heart, in fact, it is not impossible to let Shen Junxi follow.It's the baby here, without Shen Junxi to take care of him, he is a little worried.It's not that she doesn't worry that Yang and Shen Dongming can't take good care of her, but she subconsciously feels that Shen Junxi is the best to take care of the baby.
Seeing this, Yang said: "The daughter-in-law is worried about the baby. She is used to being served by his father, so it is not good for us to take care of her suddenly." She smiled and said: "What's the matter, I will get used to it after a night or two , children are like this." Now that the daughter-in-law is tied to this family, they feel more at ease.Song Jingwei in the past felt like he had nothing to do with this family, and always made them feel uneasy, as if he would leave at any time.
Sure enough, having a child is stability, which is a good thing.
"It's not that I'm worried..." Song Jingwei felt a little embarrassed after seeing through his thoughts.For the sake of this son, he gradually became a little different.
"It's good not to worry, you just go, go early and return early." Yang said with a smile, and felt that there are more daughter-in-laws than before, and they are popular.
Song Jingwei looked at this, then at that, nodded and said, "Yes."
It is Song Jingwei's style to leave as soon as he says.
On the fifth day after the baby's full moon, they embarked on the journey to Qingping County together.According to Zhang Benqing, this place with good lotus root is at the border of their county, not far from Lihua Town.Once he went to the countryside to inspect and ate at a villager's house. He ate that kind of lotus root, which was delicious.After asking the source, I found out that I bought it. The old man who sold lotus root was from the next county.
The villager said: "There are not many lotus roots of this kind. That is to say, the old man planted a pond. Although everyone thinks it is delicious, they are used to eating it. No one thought of planting it by themselves."
Thinking of Song Jingwei's request, Zhang Benqing asked more carefully, "I don't know how the output is?" Knowing that the output was not bad, he immediately gave Song Jingwei a divorce letter and told him about this place.
It was still too hard to go out in a bullock cart, Song Jingwei rented a carriage and a driver, at least they could shelter from the wind and rain, and they would sit inside to be warmer.
Shen Junxi was afraid that he would catch a cold, so when he went out, he brought not only a thick cloak, but also a hand warmer.There was a charcoal fire in the stove, so it was very warm in my arms.They had never seen such an exquisite thing before.After Song Jingwei came here, Shen Junxi went to the town to buy this because he was afraid that he would be cold.
"En." As soon as he got in the car, Shen Junxi stuffed Nuan Nuan into Song Jingwei's arms, then found a blanket, and carefully covered his legs, so that it would be warmer.
"I'm not very cold." Song Jingwei said, but he didn't refuse the stove and blanket that the young man stuffed over.He felt that after giving birth to Clumsy, his body has improved, and now he sleeps like a stove at night with warmth.
The young man sat beside him quietly, and after a while he gestured and asked, "Are you hungry?"
They brought a lot of dry food and snacks. Fortunately, the weather was cold and these things were not easy to break.But dry food is not very tasty, Shen Junxi always eats dry food by himself, and gives Song Jingwei softer snacks.
Seeing that he was eating hard, Song Jingwei said, "I can't eat so much, you should have some snacks too."
Shen Junxi originally wanted to wave his hand and say no, but Song Jingwei said: "You can go down to eat when you get to the town. Do you think I like dim sum very much? What's delicious if it's cold and hard?"
The dim sum is obviously soft and loose... The young man stuffed a piece into his mouth and chewed, thinking to himself.
"You think I'm lying to you, don't you?" Song Jing smiled slightly: "You are a person who can satisfy what you have, can my requirements be the same as yours?"
"..." Thinking of his daughter-in-law's background, Shen Junxi silently put away those thoughts.That's right, the daughter-in-law may have gotten tired of eating something delicious to them.
So when they got to town, they went down to eat and pick up something else they could eat on the way.After walking for a whole day, Qingping County has arrived, but the address mentioned in Zhang Benqing's letter has not yet arrived.
Song Jingwei came down and asked a villager, and the man said, this place is at the foot of the mountain, just go straight along this road.
Believe the evil of the villager, they didn't arrive until midnight.
Indeed, there is only one family, two houses, and a pond at the door, which is very easy to identify.And this family has a dog, and they heard the dog barking when they came.
Shen Junxi got out of the carriage first, helped Song Jingwei down, and heard him say: "Go and call the door." Although it was quite disturbing at such a late hour, there was nothing to do.Had they known it was so far away, they would have waited until tomorrow to come.
"En." Shen Junxi carefully led him, and slowly walked on the cobbled path.
Concerned about the big dog at the door, they dare not get too close.Still two or three meters away, Song Jingwei called out, "Is there anyone there?"
The dog barked so loudly, it was estimated that the people inside had already woken up.They waited for a while, only to see a light in the house.Then, a small old man came out with an oil lamp.
I don't know what he did, but the big dog at the door suddenly became obedient and sat on the ground without saying a word.
"Old man, can I borrow a night here?" Song Jingwei said as he took two steps forward, seeing an old man with white hair but bright eyes.
"..." The old man looked at them, nodded at them, turned around and went in again.
Song Jingwei paused suspiciously, and followed in.When they passed by the big dog, they were not attacked, and it was obvious that they were just obedient and sensible dogs.This dog reminded both Song Jingwei and Shen Junxi of Xiao Hei at home, who was also obedient and sensible.
The stoic coachman followed them, looking restrained and frightened as he passed the dog.
"Old man, do you live alone?" Song Jingwei asked, there are only two rooms here.
"..." The old man put down the oil lamp and gestured at him a few times.
Both Song Jingwei and Shen Junxi were stunned for a moment, and then nodded clearly. It turned out that the old man was dumb, which was really a coincidence.
Shen Junxi smiled and gestured to the dumb uncle: "Old man, this is my wife, I'm really sorry to disturb you late at night."
The mute gestured in surprise, "Are you a mute?"
Shen Junxi nodded and gestured: "Yes."
The mute showed regret, and gestured: "It's a pity."
Shen Junxi shook his head, gestured and said: "It's not a pity, I am always happy when I am content."
"..." The mute grinned, then led them into a room, and gestured: "There is a wooden couch here, if you want to rest, you can only rest here."
Song Jing nodded slightly and said, "Thank you old man, we brought blankets and cloaks, and this wooden couch is enough."
The mute went out with the oil lamp, pushed the coachman as he passed by, and pointed to his bed outside.There is no spare room at home, the coachman can only make do with him tonight.The honest and dull coachman went to bed sullenly and went to sleep. He has been running around all year round, and it is very good to have a bed to sleep on.
Inside the room, Shen Junxi groped in the dark to spread the blanket.Song Jingwei lay on it, covered with a big cloak, it was still warm.He moved out of his position, opened a corner and said, "Come up quickly."
Shen Junxi was stunned in the dark, then sat down and slowly lay down beside his wife.Because of the limited width of the cloak, they had to get close.Shen Junxi turned sideways and gently hugged the person around him, the body temperature of the two blended together, and quickly warmed the bed, but they didn't feel cold.
Song Jingwei turned a blind eye to the embrace of this special situation and let him go.
Since moving to a new house, the two have slept in separate beds, and Shen Junxi and Song Jingwei have never slept together so closely.He rested his chin on the back of his wife's neck, and gently sniffed the fragrance of this man's body, feeling more like a milk baby than before.
It still smells good, the smell is more mixed with his son, Shen Junxi smells more at ease and more down-to-earth than before.
It was dawn in a blink of an eye, Song Jingwei woke up in a daze, with Shen Junxi's arm resting on his body, he pushed and said, "Get up."
After Shen Junxi woke up, he moved his body and felt that half of his body was numb...
"Are you numb?" Song Jingwei saw that his expression was not right, as if he was enduring some pain.
"Hmm..." After sleeping half the night with his wife in his arms, he was indeed numb.
Without further ado, Song Jingwei pressed on him vigorously, and then said, "Get up and walk, it will be fine in a while." It's no wonder that he doesn't feel numb if he sleeps in one position for a long time.
"..." Shen Junxi was in distress, he really wanted to scream just now, but unfortunately he couldn't make a sound.
When he got better here, he walked out the door and saw Song Jingwei helping the dumb man make breakfast outside, sometimes passing firewood and sometimes lotus root, he seemed to be much more diligent than when he was at home.
He stood aside and listened quietly, only to hear Song Jingwei say: "The lotus root in my old man's house is very good, did you grow it yourself?" The dumb uncle nodded and pointed to the pond outside, Song Jingwei said again: "I want to do it too. Planting lotus root, I wonder if it is difficult to plant this lotus root?"
The dumb man has been growing lotus roots for decades, so he immediately waved to him, it was not difficult at all.
"It's not difficult for you, but it must be difficult for a layman like me." Song Jingwei looked at the lotus root with new leaves growing in the pool, and said, "I want to grow lotus root. I dug a few mouthfuls near my home. The pond is [-] acres wide, how much lotus root can you harvest in a year from a pond of [-] acres? How much money can you make?"
Apparently the mute was taken aback, and gestured: "Twenty acres?" The pond in front of his house is only about one mu, and a lot of lotus roots are harvested every year.
Song Jingwei nodded, and the dumb uncle gestured and said, "Twenty acres is a lot, you can harvest a lot of lotus roots, and you can make a lot of money." His family has no other relatives or children, so he just leans on the door in front of the door. Pond live.
Seeing the gleam in the mute's eyes, Song Jing smiled and had breakfast first.
The lotus root at this time is actually out of season, and it is not particularly delicious.But the lotus root from Dumber's house is indeed as Zhang Benqing said, very good, with a moderate taste, sweet and soft taste.This kind of lotus root can be eaten steamed or fried, and it can be cooked in soup, stewed, braised, etc.
When the first piece of lotus root was eaten, Song Jingwei had already decided that he would grow this kind of lotus root in his lotus pond.
"Dumb." He said to the dumb: "To tell you the truth, I came here this time because of the reputation, and I came here specially to eat your lotus root." He pointed to the lotus root on the plate and said: "It's delicious. I like it very much. I hope my family's lotus pond will also grow this kind of lotus root. Can you sell me the lotus seeds?"
When listening to the first half of Song Jingwei's sentence, the dumb man smiled, but after hearing the second half, he waved his hands with a straight face and gestured: "My lotus roots don't sell lotus seeds."
Song Jingwei was a little surprised, he straightened his mind and said, "Why don't you sell it, can you tell me about it?"
The mute hesitated for a while, then gestured and said, "I am a single old man with no family and no son. I rely on
