Chapter 44 I will eat everything, but I will not suffer
After struggling for so long, the noodles have become lumpy.
Mu Siyu added water, poured the uneaten noodles into the pot and reheated them.
"I really didn't expect that Brother Chengquan would actually listen to that shrew."
Lu Xuan stood at the door and said, looking in the direction of the kitchen, he raised his voice and said: "But it's some people's fault. It's really itchy after not causing trouble for three days. With her here, no one in the village wants to associate with our family.
"
Mu Siyu sneered: "It's so funny! I like to interact with people so much. Don't do anything tomorrow except visit from door to door."
"Brother, look at her, she still doesn't know how to repent." Lu Xuan was so angry that he blew his beard and stared.
"Where did I go wrong? When Mrs. Wang came to stir up trouble, I shouldn't have fought back? She just blackmailed me, so I shouldn't have taught her a lesson? Mr. Lu, I'm sorry, I'm a person who can suffer anything but not lose."
"You...you...are really arrogant."
"Okay." Lu Yi interrupted the argument between the two. "Brother Xuan, you are not in good health. Please rest early."
Mu Siyu was angry: "That's right. It's late at night. Is it because you don't sleep well? Why do you come here to fight with me?"
"Sister, is mom's medicine ready?" Mu Zhenghan came out and asked.
"It's on the stove, it should be ready soon." Mu Siyu ignored Lu Xuan and returned to the kitchen to look at the fire.
"Brother, look at her attitude..." Lu Xuan said angrily: "I didn't dare to talk nonsense in front of you before, but now it's better and I dare to be arrogant in front of you. If this continues, who can control her?
?”
"Brother Xuan, have you drunk your medicine?" Lu Yi asked.
"I don't want to drink that stuff. It's useless anyway." Lu Xuan said sadly. "Brother, don't waste your money on buying me medicine in the future. I'm already doing very well as long as I'm alive. Let's take it one day at a time!"
"Nonsense, I don't like to hear this, don't make me angry." Lu Yi looked at him sharply. "I promised my parents to protect you. If I am here, you can't leave before me."
"Your body can live to be ninety-nine even if it doesn't live to a hundred, how can I compare with you?" Lu Xuan muttered.
The air in ancient times was good. There were no factories or pollution. The sky was so blue and the air was full of the fragrance of plants.
The cockcrow sounds, and the busy day begins.
Huh-huh! Huh-huh! Bang-bang! Dong-dong!
Lu Xuan came out and stretched. When he saw the figure busy in the yard, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He thought it was Lu Yi, but it turned out to be that lazy woman Mu Siyu.
He looked at the sky.
It's just dawn, it's still early!
"What are you busy with lately?"
"You don't understand even if I tell you. I'll tell you when I'm done." Mu Siyu said without raising her head.
"I don't know? Ha!" Lu Xuan obviously didn't believe it.
Seeing that she continued to be busy, he muttered again: "These tools are all borrowed, don't break them."
"I know, you're so long-winded." Mu Siyu was impatient. "Breakfast is ready. Warm it in the pot. You can serve it yourself."
Lu Xuan stared at Mu Siyu's back, his face full of displeasure.
Lu Zhiyun walked out rubbing her eyes.
Her hair was messy and her feet were bare. After she came out, she sat on the threshold and watched Mu Siyu's movements.
"Yun'er, why don't you wear shoes?" Lu Xuan frowned and picked up Lu Zhiyun.
As soon as she moved, before she could hold her up, her chest suddenly started to hurt.
"Ahem!"
"Uncle, don't hug me." Lu Zhiyun came down quickly.
"What's wrong?" Lu Yi came back from outside.
I saw that he was holding a sickle in his hand, and it seemed that he was going to mow the grass.
There are a lot of weeds in the vegetable field. In order to make the vegetables grow better, we have to clean them up every now and then.
"It's okay." Lu Xuan said, "I saw Yun'er's bare feet and wanted to carry her to put on shoes, but I didn't expect her body to be so useless."
"Why don't you wear shoes?" Lu Yi picked up Lu Zhiyun.
"I..." Lu Zhiyun's eyes turned red.
Lu Shaoyu came out and handed his shoes to Lu Zhiyun.
His shoes are a bit big and have patches on them, but they are still usable.
Looking at Lu Shaoyu again, he was barefoot and said, "I don't like wearing shoes. Wearing shoes is not comfortable at all."
Mu Siyu, who was working, noticed the movement here, and looked at the bare feet of the two children, and seemed to understand something.
A pair of shoes costs dozens of yuan, and her family really doesn't have any extra money to buy shoes. But for her, who has participated in red ground drills, knitting a pair of straw sandals is not a difficult problem.
She patted the crumbs on her hands and said, "Shaoyu, put them on! I'll make a pair of shoes for Yun'er later."
"Making shoes? We don't have any cloth at home," Lu Xuan said.
"You'll find out later."
Lu Yi served the rice, first asked Mu Zhenghan to deliver it to Tong, and then served the others' breakfast.
He came to find Mu Siyu, but she didn't know where she was.
"I just saw her going out." Lu Xuan said.
"Well, let's eat!"
He looked outside.
Today's 'Mu Siyu' is a very strange person.
She knows many things, but these things are not like what ordinary women know.
She was good to her two children, and she was more like a mother than the original 'Mu Siyu'. But he saw the look of a girl in her eyes, which meant that she was not very old.
A young girl became the mother of two children. Not only did she not panic, she also adapted well. When faced with other people's difficulties, she was able to fight back without showing any weakness at all.
What kind of family can raise such a daughter?
Looking back at yesterday's incident where she took the opportunity to extort 20 eggs from Mr. Wang, it shows that she is a person who is determined to retaliate.
"Brother-in-law, are you going to go into the mountains later?" Mu Zhenghan took a sip of green vegetable porridge and asked him.
"Um."
Even while eating porridge, Lu Yi didn't make a sound.
"Can you take me with you?" After Mu Zhenghan finished speaking, he lowered his head and did not dare to look at him.
"You are too young, the mountain is dangerous." Lu Yi frowned.
"I'm not afraid of danger." Mu Zhenghan looked at Lu Yi anxiously. "I'm good at running and won't cause you any trouble. I can also climb trees if I encounter danger. By the way, I'm not afraid of snakes either.
Bugs and stuff like that.”
"If you want to go, then go!" Lu Yi said.
"Thank you, brother-in-law."
After getting the confidence, Mu Zhenghan took a big gulp of the porridge.
After a while, he took out a few cakes from the pot and saw Lu Yi looking at him and explained: "My sister just gave the order. She said that if you go into the mountains, you won't come back until the afternoon. These cakes will be taken with you at noon."
eat."
"Um."
When Mu Siyu came back, Lu Yi took Mu Zhenghan into the mountains.
Lu Xuan swept the yard and had nothing else to do, so he dug out a few old books.
"Shaoyu, come here and uncle will teach you how to read." Lu Xuan said.
Lu Shaoyu glanced at Mu Siyu who was busy and slowly walked towards Lu Xuan.
Normally at this time he would have gone out to collect firewood, but today he wanted to know what kind of shoes the woman would make for his sister, so he stayed and watched.
Lu Xuan pulled Lu Zhiyun to sit next to him, and held a wooden stick to teach Lu Shaoyu to draw on the ground: "Learn this word today..."
