The Landlord And His Wife

After dinner, Liu Hong packed up and went to wash the dishes. Liu Gao called He and Ma to him and took out the copper coins that the sons brought back today. Baiwen handed it to them: "This is the money you bought for the New Year. I bought some cotton to buy the children's clothes and shoes."

Of course, the food and everything are still together, but Liu Gao's family doesn't bother to buy them one by one and leave them to be their mothers. The amount is uncertain. Last year, he gave 400 wen. This year, because of the large amount of money he was looking for, Liu Gao’s hand loosened slightly.

The whole family sat and talked for a while, then went back to their respective houses. No one mentioned anything about the third child and Jia Shi today, as if there were no two of them.

He held Xiao Liu Sen with a small head and started bit by bit, returned to the house and put Liu Sen on the bed first, patted him lightly with his hands to coax him to sleep, Liu Changgeng squatted at the door and smoked dry cigarettes.

"His father, are you going to the county tomorrow?" He asked.

"Go, it's not like I said, in the future everything will be expensive. Since Dad said to go, hurry up."

"Take Willow? Why don't you ask Willow to stay to see Xu'er and Senzi, and take Willow." He said.

Liu Changgeng did not speak for a while.

"How about bringing Liu Shu along and asking Liu Hong to watch the child for a while?" He continued.

Liu Xuer entered the house and was about to climb up the kang, when she heard it, she immediately called out, "Father, mother! I want to go too! Take me with you."

He subconsciously objected: "No, what are you going to do?"

"I haven't been to the county yet! I'll go and see what's interesting... Also, let's see who is there." Liu Xuer knew that her father was a good talker, so she went to catch it Liu Changgeng's arm, who was squatting there, was shaking back and forth: "Dad, I'm going, take me with you! I want to go and have a look, I haven't been out yet."

Liu Changgeng just took a couple of puffs, when she was swayed by her daughter and couldn't squat. As soon as she turned her head and was about to speak, she saw the smoke from the dry cigarette holder drifting towards her daughter , Liu Xuer coughed loudly, he hurriedly fanned the cigarette in front of her, and knocked the dry cigarette on the threshold again, and stopped smoking. He smiled and touched Liu Xu'er's head: "Go...or else, will the children go?"

He picked up Liu Xuer and put it on the kang while asking Mrs He.

He was obviously worried, but shook his head resolutely: "Of course not, we two have three children, how can we see it? Willow is also a child, can you see it? Go see? What if you lose one when you run around?"

Liu Xuer looked at Liu Sen and whispered: "Not three, mother, you have four children..."

He and Liu Changgeng, who were discussing, were suddenly amused by her, and He tapped on her little head and smiled angrily: "Of course mother knows that I have four children! You What do you want to do, you can't go by yourself, and you still want to take Moriko? Can you carry him or hold him?!"

Liu Xuer grabbed He's arm again: "Mother, I promise not to run around! Ask my brothers to hold my hand, I must follow closely!" She turned her head Looking at the willow tree: "Big brother, can you carry your brother on your back?"

Willow is only a seven-year-old child, and she wants to go to the county seat. Hearing this, he laughed and scratched his head.

"Then can you look at me?" Liu Xuer asked again.

Willow hurriedly puffed out her chest: "Of course! I promise not to run around and watch my younger siblings."

Liu Changgeng looked at his son and daughter, and felt a little uncomfortable. He lost his smile and said softly to Mrs. He, "If you don't want to call me, Mori, I will never leave. Hand, Liu Shu looks at his younger brother and sister and won't run around."

He still wanted to object, but her husband had already spoken, so she couldn't refute it. She was looking at Liu Xuer's hope. ? Mrs He also hesitated, and nodded angrily on Liu Xuer's forehead: "You have a lot of things to do! You said that you are a little girl, what can you do in the county? You are not allowed to see everything when you go there. !"

The last sentence is undoubtedly a promise, Liu Xuer almost jumped up with joy, and agreed loudly with joy: "Got it! Definitely don't ask for anything!"

Liu Shu and Liu Lin, who was waiting nervously, also breathed a sigh of relief. The two also smiled and hurriedly went to the back room to sleep.

Liu Xuer really hasn't been to the county, and she wants to go to the county not for fun, but also to see what she can do now. The family is so poor, she is also anxious.

, this is today's dry food.

It was too early to be unhappy, and the three brothers and sisters coaxed for a while.

Liu Changgeng swept the yard and went to the village's home to borrow a donkey cart. Mrs. He accompanied Xiaoxiao and Mrs. Liu Gao told him to take four children with him. Mr. Liu Gao ate as expected. Surprised, of course he didn't want to, Mrs He said kind words for a long time, before Mrs Liu Gao reluctantly agreed.

Fengxian County is a small and not small county in Hanzhong Mansion. There were two or three parking sheds at the entrance, and someone was watching. As long as a penny was needed, Liu Changgeng naturally parked his car outside the city.

Don't want to miss the last episode.

Liu Changgeng held Liu Sen, He held Liu Lin and Liu Xuer's hand, Liu Shu held Liu Xuer's hand outside, the family strolled around the market for a while, although they came to buy There are things, but He's looking at this is expensive, and at a glance that is not cheap, he is not willing to buy anything.

I always came out of the market selling meat, vegetables and eggs without buying anything. He walked back to the street where he bought the cloth. Mr. He thought back and forth many times in his mind, and finally came here. He bought ten feet of cotton cloth and spent eighty pennies.

"Just buy some more cotton cloth, we won't buy anything." He Shiyou also talked to Liu Changgeng.

Liu Changgeng nodded with a smile, and suddenly saw a man over there just turning his face, but he knew him. It was Shi Qian who lived in the east of the village.

He hurriedly greeted: "Brother Shi, are you also coming to the county to go to the fair?"

Shi Qian also saw him, and nodded hurriedly with a smile: "Yeah, second brother Liu is also coming to the market? Yo, are you bringing the whole family?" He saw a string behind Liu Changgeng.

He stopped and looked at Shi Qian, smiling and nodding. Liushu Liulin and Liu Xuer also quickly shouted politely, "Uncle Shi."

The adults spoke, but Liu Xuer saw at a glance that there was a rabbit seller over there. A dozen rabbits were placed in a bamboo basket, and they were still long-haired rabbits.

Her eyes lit up, and she shook He's hand hurriedly: "Mother, let me go, I'll go over there to see the rabbit."

He looked down at her: "Don't run around!"

"Don't run around, it's right there!" Liu Xuer pointed to the other side, He looked at it, it was right next to it, and then Liu Changgeng and Shi Qian had to talk for a while, then let go. Liu Xuer hurriedly ran over. Willow and Willow hurriedly followed.

Little catkins squatted in front of the basket, looking at the snow-white little rabbit in the basket, her eyes full of love, it really was a long-haired rabbit, she was not mistaken, she had raised one before.

.

Liu Xuer has been thinking quickly in her heart.

Liu Lin stepped forward to take a look, also found it cute, but nothing unusual, came over and stretched out her hand to pull her up: "Let's go Xuer, mother called."

Liu Xuer couldn't stand up, and her **** fell hard. Liu Lin wasn't very energetic, and he didn't pull her up after a long time. Liu Shu stretched his head beside him, looked at the rabbit thoughtfully, and then looked at Liu Xuer, who he liked very much, his mouth moved just as he was about to speak.

"You're leaving, don't look at it." Mr. He came over.

"Mother! Buy me two little bunnies?" Liu Xuer immediately asked with a hopeful look on her face.

He immediately shook his head: "Where can I buy which one with spare money? Get up and go." Seeing Liu Xuer not moving, she added: "Why did you promise your mother when you went out?! I want something!"

"I don't want anything, mother, I don't want anything, I just want two rabbits." Liu Xuer looked at He Shi with a pleading face, and reached out and grabbed her skirt , make a pitiful look.

Before Mr. He could speak, there was a laughing 'puchi' from the side!

The three of them looked over and saw a young woman standing beside a five- or seven-year-old boy, who was laughing.

When Liu Xuer saw that it was Aunt Shi and Shi Cheng, she hurriedly stood up and called out, "Aunt Shi, hello." Liu Shu Liulin also quickly followed: "Aunt Shi."

Shi Chengniang smiled and nodded: "Good," and greeted Mrs He: "You are here too?"

Liu Xuer continued to squat down to look at the rabbit, and when she heard Shi Cheng was still laughing over there, she turned her head and glared at him, and turned her face away angrily.

He hurriedly smiled and nodded to the woman: "Yeah, sister-in-law of the Shi family, just now Chang Geng saw Brother Shi over there, I'm still wondering why I didn't see my sister-in-law and Shicheng... You guys also started Are you preparing something for the New Year?"

The sister-in-law of the Shi family smiled and nodded: "I just came out of that shop. It's not just busy, but I should also buy the things I will use for the New Year."

"Yeah, my family is too, while the farm work is not busy at the moment, hurry up to buy something. By the way, the sister-in-law of the Shi family, um, it's the matter of the teacher Xuer tying up, I Thinking that these few days are not free..." He said with a smile, a little embarrassed, and looked at a twelve- or thirteen-year-old girl who was following behind the Shi family's sister-in-law. This little girl is not the daughter of the Shi family's sister-in-law. , but the maid of the Shi family.

The Shi family is a wealthy family in the village, and there are three or four servants in the family.
