Chapter 383: No Particles
The weather is getting cooler.
After the rice fields are harvested, there is less farm work, and the villagers spend most of the day at home. The women at home take advantage of this leisure and begin to prepare winter clothes in advance.
After finishing their chores in the morning, Mrs. Su took her daughter and the daughters-in-law to sit on stools at the entrance of the courtyard, where they worked together with the neighboring women, chatting and basking in the sun.
Even Mrs. Huo came over carrying fabrics and a sewing basket to join in the fun.
A bird's nest popped up from the wall of the courtyard behind, nagging, "Xiu'er, don't embroider my coat!"
Su Xiuer, who was immersed in sewing needlework under the sun, smiled and said, "Not embroidery, just embroider herbal leaves."
"This is good. By the way, sew me a purse and embroider it with herbal leaves."
"good."
Huo raised his eyebrows and glanced at the happy old man, "This old man has quite a lot of demands. I've never seen you so stupid before."
The old man raised his chin and retorted, "That's not as bad as your Huo Ziheng. He always likes to embroider bamboo leaf patterns on new clothes, and he must have twenty bamboo leaves! It doesn't matter if he has one more or less, he has to be the tortoise-hair ancestor, right?"
Huo Shi, "..."
All the women turned their heads and laughed.
The old man won the verbal battle, jumped off the corner, ran into the Su family courtyard, and jumped in front of the girl who was sitting at the door of the hall eating boiled sweet potatoes, "Sweetheart, let's go find a place to play!"
The girl raised her head and asked, "What are you playing for?"
The old man's eyes shone, "Catch the snake!"
"good."
"Those little brats have to go too!"
"good."
When they heard that the old man was about to catch a snake, the little bastards in the yard next door cried out, "Sweet baby! Grandpa Poison! Can we play something else? We snake catchers are tired of catching snakes! Can we catch frogs? Otherwise, we will catch fish with our lower jaws."
That’s okay—”
On the wall between the two houses, a girl's head popped up and she smiled.
Little bastards, "..."
The old man led his followers up the mountain in a mighty manner, while the women making winter clothes at the gate of the yard were still laughing.
Someone lamented, "Among the children, the one who dotes on Mr. Du the most is Tianbao."
Mrs. Su knotted the needlework in her hand, cut it, and sewed one sleeve. She smiled and said, "When Tianbao was a child, her poisonous grandfather also loved her the most. Her father and mother were not as strong as our own. Tianbao should be right."
Her poisonous grandpa is good."
The old woman had a smile on her face, and there was no hint of concern or grudge in her words.
Liu Yuelan, He Daxiang, and Su Xiuer also had smiles on their faces.
I have known Mr. Du for more than ten years. Regardless of Mr. Du's temperament, his love and care for several children is seen by the entire Xiao Su family.
After so many years, everyone has gotten along with each other like family members, and they, the younger generations, have long regarded Mr. Du as the elders in the family.
There is no distinction between inside and outside.
This kind of closeness and kindness is even greater than the first Master Duandao I met.
Tianbao let the snakes out in the back mountain all morning. When he came back, the old man brought a cloth bag full of stuff, which made the old man jump up and down with joy.
It was almost noon when I got home.
As soon as Tianbao entered the house, he felt something was wrong in the atmosphere.
There was smoke from the kitchen, but there was no chatter and laughter from the women that I could always hear in the past.
In the hall, old man Su, old woman Su, and Su Da and Su Er were sitting on low stools, looking in a trance.
The house was so quiet that even the chickens left dissatisfied and nestled in the corner.
Tianbao frowned.
Wei Li and Su An, Su Wen and Su Wu looked at each other, with doubts and worries in their eyes.
The old man picked up the cloth bag and threw it several times under the eaves of the hall. Then he threw the motionless bag into the corner and asked, "Did the sky fall while we were not at home?"
Those who are feeling heavy, "..." feel a little heavy for no reason.
The sky hasn't fallen yet, so what worries do they have in advance?
The devil was stunned.
Old man Su pulled out a stool from the corner and patted it, "Brother, come and sit. You and your children will also come together, and we will give advice together."
"What's so mysterious about it? Just tell me and that's it."
"In the morning, someone from the Yamen came to our village to deliver a letter, saying that the court had granted amnesty and our family could return to their hometown. Am I not worried?" Old Man Su sighed, "It stands to reason that we can really go home. We were sure before that.
I'm happy, but I can't be happy right now."
Mrs. Su also said, "I used to think I could never go back, and I was so focused on taking root here. Now I have developed feelings for this place. Suddenly, I got an amnesty. It's very disturbing."
Su Da added, "The most important thing is that the amnesty will not come sooner or later, but it comes at this time. We suspect there is fraud in it."
Su Er slapped his leg, "Isn't that right? Six of the thirteen members of our family are on the nine countries' wanted lists. There must be fraud! The court just looks down on us and thinks that we are stupid and have no brains! tui!"
Several people who had just returned home and had not yet sat down thought, "..." The court must have seen it wrong.
No matter how stupid a person is, if he hangs out with someone who is playing tricks for a long time, he will develop some tricks.
Tianbao sat down next to her grandma, "Grandpa and grandma, in this case, what's the point of worrying?"
Mrs. Su sighed softly and reached out to touch her head, "What worries us is that the court seems to have started to use all possible means to deal with you."
And they knew that the court was going to deal with the children, but they seemed to be unable to do anything to help.
They, the elders, have only limited their horizons and abilities throughout their lives.
In fact, it doesn't matter to them how they are doing.
But I can't help but want to think more about the children, hoping that they can live a better life.
Now a pie suddenly falls from the sky, but this pie is placed in a trap.
well.
Tianbao held Grandma's hand with a dull look on his face, "Grandma, Grandma, even if the court pardons us and returns to our place of origin, the wanted order is still there and we are still fugitive wanted criminals."
"..." The old woman twitched the corner of her mouth. The child looked at her so openly that she didn't know whether she should continue to worry.
From the kitchen, a woman shouted to start dinner.
Mrs. Su retracted her hand, stood up and patted the hem of her clothes, "Then don't worry, let's go eat."
Tianbao, "Grandma?"
"Grandma suddenly figured it out. Our family is either an exile or a wanted criminal in this life. I guess we will keep changing the hats on our heads, so there is nothing to worry about."
"..."
A few little bastards looked up at the sky.
Quan Dang grandma was praising them.
After lunch, Du Buguo went to Huo's house and moved Huo Ziheng over. He hid in his yard with a few children and murmured for a long time, not knowing what they were discussing.
Separated by a wall, Xiao Su's family stretched their necks and couldn't hear a complete sentence.
In the afternoon, Bai Yu also came, muttering again after entering the yard next door.
Su Dasu Eryanyan, who was finally stuck to the wall, slid down.
Didn't even hear a damn thing.
Chapter completed!
