Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress
Chapter 5 Nine pounds (2)
As he spoke, Yi Xing lifted up the tarpaulin covering the basket and suddenly exclaimed: "Oh, Sister Zhou, what are you doing?"
In the basket, there were a dozen frozen bean bags wrapped in corn leaves, a few potatoes, and on top, a hare that had been packed away.
Aunt Zhou said: "I just passed by your door. I heard you crying loudly. Could it be that the family is out of food? Although these are not good things, they can always fill the stomach, which is better than being hungry. "
After saying that, he sighed again and said: "Hey! I wanted to get you more, but I didn't know that the wild boar has been making a lot of trouble recently. Jiujin and his father haven't been out of the mountains these days. I don't know when the trouble will end. !"
The Jiujin in Aunt Zhou's mouth is her only son. He was named Jiujin because he weighed nine kilograms when he was born. He is now sixteen years old. He is tall and strong, and he is honest and upright. He is a rare good person. Afterlife.
When she was a child, because the two families lived close together, Zhou and Du became good friends. Jiujin often went to Mu's house to play with Caiwei. At that time, Zhou often joked that she wanted Caiwei to be Jiujin's daughter-in-law. Caiwei He was young and didn't understand, and he was stupid and didn't know what to say, but every time Jiujin heard about this, he would smile from ear to ear and say naively: "Sure!"
Later, as the two children grew older, they learned how to avoid suspicion between men and women, and the two of them met less often. However, every time they came back from hunting, Jiujin would spread out some of the prey and let their mother send it to Mu's house. When I get money from selling prey, I will secretly buy some handkerchiefs, headbands and other small gadgets, and ask my mother to deliver them in her name.
Aunt Zhou naturally knew her son's thoughts, and in her heart, she had long regarded Caiwei as her daughter-in-law. No, after hearing that her future in-laws were so poor that they were selling their hair, Aunt Zhou hurriedly took out some of the little food she had at home and sent them over.
"Sister Zhou, I'm not dissatisfied with you, but I really can't accept your things anymore. My sister's family is not well-off, so she keeps subsidizing us like this. I feel really bad about this." Du Shi and his entourage said, while putting the basket Send it to Aunt Zhou's arms.
Aunt Zhou chuckled and said, "We sisters have a good time. If you say you don't have these things, wouldn't you be out of touch? If I really feel sorry for you, how about giving Wei'er nine pounds to me?"
What Aunt Zhou said was half true and half false. She had her own little Jiujiu in her heart: if Mrs. Du agreed, their family would happily prepare for the wedding and marry their new daughter-in-law years ago; if Mrs. Du didn't In response, Mr. Zhou just thought it was a joke. Anyway, this joke has been made frequently over the years.
Sure enough, Mrs. Du said with some embarrassment: "Sister Zhou, I'm afraid this matter will have to wait until Wei'er's father comes back. I can't make the decision..."
Aunt Zhou smiled nonchalantly, and was not too disappointed. After all, Caiwei was still young and had not yet grown hair. She could not spread her branches even if she entered the house, so it was nothing to wait for another year and a half.
Without lingering on the topic, she pointed to the two little ones and said to Mrs. Du: "Sister, the ground is covered with heavy snow. How can you let your children collect firewood? Besides, they are all dressed like this." It's so thin. How can it be cured if it's frozen? I'll ask Jiu Jin to send loads of firewood later. Let the children go back to the house to warm themselves up. It's so cold outside..."
In the room, Mu Caiwei listened intently to the conversation between Aunt Zhou and Mrs. Du. She sat up happily, her big bright eyes shining with excitement.
She didn't take Aunt Zhou's half-truth and half-false jokes to heart, but it was another news that Aunt Zhou brought that made her see the dawn of a solution to poverty!
