Lucky husband

Back in the courtyard of Li's house, Li Mingcai ran straight to his house without taking a breath.

Qian Xinghua, who was circling around the room restlessly, had no idea, it was Li Ming who rushed in and almost hit her belly.

Qian Xinghua was so frightened that she was so old now that her body was not as good as before, and she could go to work in the fields while she was pregnant and toss about whatever she wanted. This time, nothing happened to her stomach. After all, she hoped that this It is the son who can get money from his grandfather in the future, so he must be well protected.

Li Ming didn't know this, he didn't care when he saw Qian Xinghua dodging, grabbed the water on the table and drank a couple of sips, and then expressed his grievance: "Mother, that dead girl Li Mingxia robbed me of pastries, she Still bullying me with that money-loser Li Mingjin!"

Hearing her son mention Li Mingjin, Qian Xinghua's expression paused. If it was before, she would have dared to drag her son to block the door of the third room, but she had just been warned by Li Chengshi, and she didn't dare to go to the third room to look for bad luck, so she had to hug her Looking at her precious son, she comforted her and said, "What kind of cakes, mother will buy them for Mingcai when she goes to the market next time, and Mingcai will eat them alone, no one will give them to me."

"Red, it must be red bean cake!" Li Ming added the corners of his mouth, the best things in the world besides meat are pastries and sugar, white soft cake, red bean cake, mung bean cake, caramel cubes... none of them are bad.

However, Qian Xinghua said that she would wait until the next time she went to the market to buy it. Li Ming was very dissatisfied with this answer, and immediately rolled on the ground: "I want to eat it now, and I want to eat those dead girls who lose money." eat."

"I want to eat. If you don't give it to me, I will go to find milk and my third aunt. Anyway, I want to eat, and I will get it now."

Qian Xinghua looked at her baby lump rolling around on the ground like this, feeling very distressed, but how dare she go to find her mother-in-law and the third room, she gritted her teeth, went back to the room, took out the key, and opened the cabinet where the things were hidden: "Mother! Mingcai, mother has some caramel candies here, can you eat candies today? Next time, mother will definitely buy you red bean cakes."

Liming just crawled up from the ground, snatched the big piece of sugar from Qian Xinghua's hand, put it in his mouth and said inarticulately: "Not only do I want red bean cakes, but also mung bean cakes. , or I'll go find them!"

After finishing speaking, he ran out at dawn. He wanted to take the candy to show off to two losers!

Qian Xinghua in the house was so angry that her heart ached. First, her mother-in-law scolded him, then her third brother threatened her, and now the one that crawled out of her belly was also riding on her head. Why is Qian Xinghua's life so miserable? !

The more she thought about it, the more unpleasant it became. Qian Xinghua lay on the bed and groaned, pointing and cursing.

Li Mingchun, who was passing by the door, heard it. She hesitated for a while and didn't enter the house. She walked quickly to the backyard with a basket on her back.

When Bai Xiuhe saw her coming, she quickly took the pigweed from her back, and persuaded: "Chun girl, you are still young, don't carry such heavy things in the future, or you will not grow taller."

"Our family won't let the girls do nothing, and we won't squeeze the girls too much." While talking, Bai Xiuhe took out an egg from the side and stuffed it, "This is your mother's egg today, take it and give it to me." her."

I used to give eggs to my two sister-in-laws in the morning. She got up early to boil a pot of water and boiled the eggs by the way. Unexpectedly, one day Qian Xinghua got up late by herself, and she didn’t notice that the eggs were cold when she ate them. Spit it out immediately.

From that day on, Qian Xinghua came to Bai Xiuhe and said that she would give her the next day's eggs one night in advance, and she would make them herself when she got up. She could cook boiled eggs, poached eggs, egg custard, and brown sugar eggs water.

This time, Li Mingchun, who always silently took the eggs on weekdays, shook his head lightly: "Auntie, I'll go out and find some pigweed. There are too many piglets in the house. I'm afraid these are not enough to eat. Can I trouble you?" Take it to my mother when you're done working?"

Li Mingchun's voice was thin and small, with a little trill, as if she was afraid, and she had mustered up the courage to say this.

Although Bai Xiuhe found it strange, she didn't think there was any problem, so she agreed: "Okay, I'll take care of the pigweed later and then bring the eggs over there. When you go out to find pigweed, remember not to fill it too much, you know No."

Li Mingchun nodded, and said softly, "Thank you, uncle."

Then, Li Mingchun went out again with an empty pannier on his back. When he passed the right room, his steps were very light, and he rushed over quickly. Fortunately, Qian Xinghua was still cursing in the room and didn't notice outside the window.

When I was in the backyard just now, Li Mingchun's heart was beating very fast, because the fourth younger sister had repeatedly told her that if Mother was swearing in the house, she must not be seen by her when she was swearing, let alone take the initiative to join in.Also, if you need someone to help you, it's best to ask your aunt. The third aunt is pregnant, and the grandmother doesn't like to take care of the small things of each family. The aunt is talkative and doesn't care about it.

In fact, when Li Mingchun was waiting for his aunt to agree, she was very nervous. She almost said that she was the one who delivered the eggs.

Li Mingchun glanced back at the courtyard of Li's house. She wondered whether her uncle's mother would be upset when she delivered eggs later, and whether her uncle's mother would be offended when she said something unpleasant. Not knowing what to do, she hesitated again and again, and finally gritted her teeth and went up the mountain.

If, if the auntie is unhappy, she will still go to get the eggs every day in the future.

----

On the other side, Li Mingxia was taken by Li Mingjin to the back mountain, a place that everyone rarely goes to.

"Brother Jin, what's the treasure you're talking about?" Walking on the mountain with two empty baskets, Li Mingxia felt as if they were going around in circles, so she couldn't help but pull Li Mingjin over and asked, "I don't remember any wild vegetables here. , My mother asked me a few words when I went out before, if I didn't dig wild vegetables back after dinner time, I would definitely be scolded miserably, why don't we come and look for them tomorrow?"

Li Mingxia bit her lower lip, it wasn't that she didn't want to talk to him with Li Mingjin, it was mainly because her mother was hard to say, since she found out she was pregnant, her temper became more and more weird, and she would beat and yell if she didn't like it at all. Damn, she couldn't just run to find a baby if she had nothing to do, so she basically endured it.

"Immediately, imminently." Li Mingjin lowered his voice very low, made a softer movement towards Li Mingxia, and pulled her to hide behind the bushes.

Just after they hid, Li Mingjin stared at the front and his eyes lit up, covered his mouth and lightly tapped Li Mingxia's shoulder, pointing forward with his index finger.

Li Mingxia looked in the direction Li Mingjin pointed, took a breath, and almost cried out. When the feeling of surprise subsided, she lowered her voice and asked in Li Mingjin's ear: "Brother Jin, is that a pheasant?" ?”

"Hmm." Li Mingjin stared at the group of pheasants running out from nowhere without blinking, and swallowed.

He had a dream last night. He dreamed that he was on the back mountain. At this time, he met a group of pheasants. Amidst the clucking of the pheasants, he quietly followed the pheasants to their nests and picked up a basket of wild eggs. .

If he hadn't been able to remember the exact location of the wild eggs after waking up from the dream, he would have brought Fourth Sister over in the morning, so he didn't have to wait until this hour.

Li Mingjin still remembered that he had picked up a basket of eggs, and there were still a lot of but scattered on the ground, which could at least fill another basket, so today he dragged Liming Xia to bring a basket.

"Shhh, let's follow them to find wild eggs later." Li Mingjin leaned into Limingxia's ear and whispered, "It's a pity that I don't know how to catch pheasants, otherwise I will catch one and go back to stew chicken soup. The pheasant soup is also delicious .”

There are not many opportunities to eat chicken at home. Usually, the hen raised is too old to eat eggs, so the aunt kills the chicken and stews the soup. The last time I drank chicken soup was in February, and now it is the end of April. Li Mingjin Thinking of the taste of chicken soup, the saliva in his mouth came out.

"I will." Li Mingxia looked at this group of pheasants and his eyes changed instantly. Li Mingjin didn't go to the uncle's mother to help out many times before and couldn't catch chickens, but she was different. She often helped catch chickens. Catching pheasants should It's about the same as the chicken at home.

Li Mingxia's eyes rolled: "Later, we will pounce on them as soon as we get to the place where they lay eggs. I will go to the right and you will go to the left. You will be responsible for driving the flock to me. Remember not to get too close to the eggs. I am afraid that the flock will The pheasant was frightened and crushed the eggs."

"Okay!" Li Mingjin agreed without hesitation, flattered in her heart, she was right to call Fourth Sister over, he would only pick up eggs, and Fourth Sister could also catch chickens.

Patiently following the leisurely flock of pheasants. Now it is the turn of spring and summer, and there is a lot of food on the mountain. The meat on this flock of pheasants has grown again. They look fat and silly, and occasionally I hear some movement behind them. Only one or two chickens will look up, as long as they hide the flock well, they won't find it.

"We're almost at the place where they lay their eggs. Shall we do it now?" Li Mingjin pointed to a relatively hidden bush. If he remembered correctly, there were dozens of wild eggs piled up behind it.

"Okay, you go to the left, I'll go to the right, and we'll start catching chickens when you see me waving to you." Li Mingxia rubbed her hands excitedly, as long as she can catch one, it will be included in the meal tonight or tomorrow There will be meat.

The forest was very quiet, only the clucking of pheasants, and occasionally Li Mingjin and the others guessed the sound of dead leaves and branches. The group of pheasants seemed to feel that something was wrong, and leaned towards the largest one among them, without casually Spread out to find food.

The two of them walked slowly around the flock with their backs bowed. When Li Mingjin walked to the place Li Mingxia arranged for him, he just straightened up when he saw Li Mingxia's raised hand behind the bushes, and he waved it twice vigorously. Down.

The two ran out from behind the bushes at the same time, and according to the plan, left and right towards the flock of pheasants.

The flock of chickens was frightened and fled in all directions, feathers and dead leaves were all over the sky, and the forest was in chaos.
