Chapter 131 Xie Jinnian, let lightning strike you

Yao Liusu forced herself to calm down, "Sister, what are you talking about? I'm going to the countryside here, and you told me about your marriage. What do I know?"

Yao Min patted her cheek and said, "I'm sorry, Liusu, I made this piece of meat in my stomach upset. I'm in a bad mood. Don't worry about it."

"I don't care. I heard that pregnant women are not in good mood."

"As long as you understand."

Su Yian ate the pancakes stuffed with eggs and chives, and there were two pancakes left. She took these two pancakes, along with a pound of suet and some pork belly, and planned to send them to her cousin.

The main reason is that the money this time has not been given yet.

Su Dajiang's family has five thatched houses, the old one has two, and Su Jianjun has three. Because Su Yihong is not married, she occupies one of Su Jianjun's rooms, which means that Su Jianjun's family of six lives in two rooms, which is still very crowded.

Fortunately, there is a side room that can be used as a kitchen room.

Aunt Su was scolding Yuliang and Goudan in the yard. She was nowhere to be seen when it was time to cook, which made her carry the rice cooked by Xiao Siduo under her arm.

What did he do with the remaining grain and dog eggs? He went to the locust tree at his second uncle's house to pull locust flowers.

"Can you eat something like grass?"

"If you can eat enough, you can scramble eggs or make steamed buns."

"I have eggs and flour, why should I make straw? I'm not stupid."

Li Qiao tried to smooth things over, "Mom, I'll come back when I get off work. Just watch Mancang and Siduo."

Aunt Su, "Don't say you came back and made Siduo cry hungry. Can I wait for you to come back?"

Su Dajiang shouted in the room, "How big of a mess is this? Taotaotao, Taotaotao, aren't Yuliang and Goudan also idle?"

"You are the only one who knows how to make peace with mud!"

Aunt Su threw the tattered handkerchief over her shoulder and went into the house.

Su Yian quickly entered Su Jianjun's room.

"Auntie." Goudan has sharp eyes. He knows Su Yian best.

"Shh..."

Goudan is silent.

Li Qiao smiled and said: "Sister, have you eaten? If not, there are still scrambled eggs. You can have a pancake."

"Sister-in-law, I've eaten some pancakes baked with leeks and eggs, and there are two left. I also brought them for the children to eat."

Li Qiao knew that her second uncle's family had a good life, and no matter how good it was, they had earned it themselves. Thinking about her children, she knew and was grateful, and she didn't complain even if she didn't think about it. No one's belongings were blown by the strong wind.

Li Qiao took it and found that there was something else inside.

"One pound of suet, and some pork belly, stir-fry."

"I'll keep the bread, but I won't need the meat..."

"It's not expensive, but it's hard to buy. The restaurant uses a lot of meat every day, so I bought some without a ticket."

Li Qiao handed two small cakes to Yu Liang, "Your aunt has sent them. You and your brothers and sisters should share them and eat them."

The remaining food was stuffed into Goudan again, "You and your brothers and sisters should share it. You eat less, and let Mancang and Siduo eat more."

Goudan swallowed and stuffed it back into Li Qiao's hand, "Mom, let Mancang and Siduo eat. If they don't have enough to eat, they will make trouble for you at night."

Li Qiao was very pleased to see his two sensible eldest sons. Although they were older, one was nine years old and the other was six years old. Parents should not be too partial.

Li Qiao tore it apart for the four children, the older one being smaller.

"Okay, don't fight anymore. Everyone has a share of the delicious food. No grabbing or giving away."

The four children then happily gathered together to eat.

Su Yian took out another six yuan and handed it to Li Qiao.

Li Qiao didn't dare to take it, "Your brother said it's too much and we can't take it. Otherwise, I'll take two pieces."

Su Yian said: "Brother is a real person. It takes seven or eight hours to travel such a long distance and push a cart of things. To be honest, these six yuan were earned through hard work and I didn't get any extra."

Li Qiao hesitated, but Su Yian forced it into her hand.

Su Yian sat there for a while and said, "I'm going to sit in my uncle's room, and then I'll leave. Sister-in-law, it's time for you and the child to take a nap. Leave me alone."

As soon as he finished speaking, there were two loud bangs outside.

Su Yian brought a flashlight, opened the door and took a look, not knowing what to say.

"Auntie, what are you..."

Aunt Su got up from the ground and said, "I went to the hut and heard someone talking. I came over to see who it was. It turned out to be Yi'an."

"It's me. I just wanted to see my uncle and auntie."

"Then go, I'll go to the hut first."

Li Qiao picked up the hook on the ground and hung it on the wall. The two sounds just now were made by it.

This looks like the scene where I was caught eavesdropping.

Su Yian went to look at Su Dajiang. He didn't look very good, but fortunately he didn't vomit.

Su Yihong also came and sat down, her hands busy making shoes for several nieces and nephews.

Aunt Su didn't overhear much information, so she didn't give up now, "Yi'an, what does your father want from your elder brother?"

Su Dajiang scolded her angrily, "You're a wife, why are you meddling in so many other things, and then you're ready to go out and show off after you find out what's going on? When did you ever stop talking about it?"

Aunt Su is just like Bai Hongmei's evaluation of her: she is not bad, but a little biased and has a bad mouth.

"What's going on? You won't let anyone talk anymore?"

In this case, Aunt Su wouldn't give up until she asked for something. Su Yian said: "Auntie, just change the water for the bean sprouts. You have to ask your elder brother to help."

A look of disbelief was written on Aunt Su's face.

Su Yihong showed Su Yi'an the small shoes she made for Siduo. They were red cloth-covered square-mouth shoes that were very small and delicate.

"The little girl belongs to someone else's family sooner or later. Do you need to be so nice to her?"

The older generation's preference for boys over girls has been deeply ingrained, even though the speaker is also a woman.

Su Yihong retorted: "I am also a member of another family. Don't you and your father want to support me?"

"By the way, you can't do this or that, but you really want to be an old girl?"

Su Yihong was so angry that she pulled Su Yi'an back to her room. She was not the one who picked her, but they also picked her. She couldn't ask for marriage while carrying food on her back.

Su Yian comforted her: "Auntie said it's up to you, and you can't make do with the marriage. Just like I got married in a daze, and my life is just like a piece of cake. If you ask me to choose again, I will definitely keep my eyes open and not rush."

It is also because of Su Yian's past experience that Su Yian is somewhat cautious when looking at talents.

The two sisters sat down and had a conversation, and Su Yian was going back.

"It's dark, I'll see you off."

Su Yian smiled and declined, "Let's not send him back and forth. I have a flashlight. Besides, it's only a few rows away and we'll be there in a minute."

In the 1970s, public security was still very good, but it would only be called chaos a few years later, so strict crackdowns came into being.

It was already the end of the month, and there was no moon. Su Yian walked home with a flashlight in her hand. Maybe it was because the battery had been used for a long time and it was not very bright. She took a few hard shots and it seemed to be a little brighter.

When I walked outside the courtyard wall of a house, the flashlight flickered on and off and suddenly went out.
