Chapter 14 Comparing acting skills? She is good at it(1/2)

Su Jinxiu turned pale and shook her head.

"Mother and Shangwen are not in good health, so we have to ask a doctor to treat them.

If I don't catch fish in exchange for some money, my whole family will starve to death before spring plowing.

I was lucky a few days ago and caught two turtles in exchange for a few taels of broken silver.

Thinking that you don't even have any clothes that can show off to others, so you have to wear them all the time, so I pulled a few feet of defective cloth from the cloth shop.

But I didn't expect that the second aunt knew that she had to snatch it.

I bought it in the size of my family, and it was not enough.

Hey, just don’t say it.

I'll go deeper and see if I can catch another fish.

If I change the money this time, I will bring back some cloth for my second aunt."

Su Shangwu grabbed Su Jinxiu and refused to let go.

“Sister, where is fishing here?

You are exchanging your life for money, I don’t want clothes.

You have survived the cold and freezing weather, what are you still afraid of now?

Give the cloth to the second aunt! You come back with me..."

Listening to the siblings' cries, the women nearby all understood.

Listening to what Su Afang meant before, I really thought that Su Jinxiu was selling her skin and flesh for money.

Now listen, Su Afang clearly wants the cloth and deliberately ruins Su Jinxiu's reputation!

Everyone has a daughter-in-law and knows how important reputation is to a girl.

Thinking about Su Afang's usual aggressive behavior, I feel a little more sympathy for Su Jinxiu and the others.

"Jinxiu, where have you ever suffered such hardship?

You and your second wife are separated, if she makes things difficult for you again.

Just go to the local chief and ask him to seek justice for you."

Just as he was talking, someone with sharp eyes saw Mrs. Li Chang walking towards here and hurriedly greeted her.

"Here, Mrs. Li Chang is here, let us tell her for you."

Everyone talked and told Hu Yang what had happened, and then pulled Su Jinxiu out of the water.

"It's so pitiful that my hands are colder than the ice in the middle of winter.

The girl's family is suffering from the cold now, so it will be difficult for her to have children in the future."

Mrs. Hu Yang is a woman about the same age as Li Zhaodi, with a kind face and kind eyes.

I had heard about Su Jinxiu's reputation before, and I was very unhappy with Su Jinxiu.

But I didn't expect that there was a hidden secret in it.

"Jinxiu, it is difficult for an upright official to interrupt household affairs.

If the second room is wrong, it’s not a big deal.”

Su Jinxiu nodded obediently and smiled.

"Thank you, aunts and sisters, for thinking about me. I know I won't cause any trouble to the mayor.

If there is any trouble in the second room in the future, I will just avoid it."

Seeing Su Jinxiu's appearance, everyone felt more and more sympathetic.

Mrs. Hu Yang comforted everyone for a few words and then they all dispersed.

Su Jinxiu saw Hu Yang holding a wooden stick and asked more questions out of curiosity.

"Auntie, what are you going to do?"

Hu Yang didn't hide it, frowned and looked around.

“The old hens we raise at home have always laid one egg a day, but they haven’t seen any eggs in half a month.

My wife at home has just given birth and is short of eggs to replenish her body.

No, I'm going out to look for it to see if that beast has laid its eggs outside."

Just as he was talking, a hen ran past the shore with a cluck.

Hu Yang took a wooden stick and chased after him.

"Where did you lay the egg?"

Su Jinxiu asked Su Shangwu to take the fish back first, and then she went to help.

The hen was chased and jumped up and down, clucking and clucking.

“If people stare at you, you won’t be able to lay eggs.

In the stove, lay eggs."

Su Jinxiu understood and stopped the panting Hu Yangshi.

"Auntie, I'm afraid there's someone in the family who keeps watching the hens laying eggs.

The hens have moved to another place. Go back and see if there are any unused stoves at home?

Maybe, it's inside."

Hu Yangshi was a little doubtful when she saw the hen disappearing.

There is nothing I can do now but go home first.

After Su Jinxiu returned home, she moved the pickled sour fruits at home to the yard.

I am going to ask Su Shangwu to borrow the bullock cart and take Lin Bona to him later.

After moving the sour fruits, before I could wipe my sweat, I heard Mrs. Hu Yang knocking on the door outside.

"Jinxiu, it's your Aunt Hu, open the door quickly."

Li Zhaodi quickly opened the door and let Hu Yang in.

"Mrs. Li Chang, what's wrong with my Jinxiu? She didn't do anything bad."

Seeing Li Zhaodi's panicked look, Hu Yangshi smiled.

"Zhao Di'er, you are just too cowardly.

Your Jinxiu didn't do anything bad, but did a good thing.

Thanks to her reminding me, I found the egg."

As she said this, she took out two eggs and put them into Li Xiadi's hand.

"It's not easy at home, so I can make egg soup for the children."

Li Zhaodi didn't dare to ask for it. She was so panicked that she had nowhere to put her hands and feet: "No."

Mrs. Hu Yang made a serious face: "It's not for you, it's for the children. You can't accept it."

Su Jinxiu looked at Li Zhaodi who was about to cry, smiled and stepped forward, handing Hu Yangshi a jar of sour fruit.

"My aunt's daughter-in-law just gave birth? I'm afraid she doesn't have much appetite.

The sour fruit is appetizing, so my aunt took it back.

If you exchange two eggs for a can of sour fruit, my aunt will suffer a big loss."

Then, he turned around and walked aside to protect Li Zhaodi.

"Mom, if you don't care about yourself, you have to take care of the little one in your belly.

Let the little ones try this egg soup."

Although it has been more than four months, Li Zhaodi is too thin.

In addition, Chun wore a lot of clothes, so it was impossible to tell that she was pregnant.

Su Jinxiu deliberately revealed this matter to Hu Yang, so as not to cause trouble with the second and third houses in the future.

Hu Yang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and stepped forward to touch Li Zhaodi's belly.

"Zhao Di'er, how many months has it been? Why haven't I heard you talk about it?"

Li Zhaodi smiled sheepishly and looked down at her belly.

"It's been more than four months since I found out."

Su Jinxiu sighed and lowered her voice.

"Aunt Hu, my father is gone.

My mother has not been in good health, so I will tell you this happy event for the time being..."
