The eldest sister is like this. As the two younger brothers, Shi Xi and Shi Le, naturally they follow behind as followers.
They even thought it was fun, after all, their aunt would secretly feed the three of them delicious food since they were young.
When Shi Jiang asked them to play, Shi Xi and Shi Le were still giggling and laughing at Shi Jiang.
Shi Jiang had no choice but to let them follow.
There are no pigs at home, only a few old hens. Now a family in the village can only raise three chickens at most, but there are policies and countermeasures.
Although the Shi family still lives together, they have actually been divided into three households.
The eldest and second eldest children live in one household each, and Liu Chunhua and his daughter live in another household, so the Shi family raises nine chickens in total.
A whole family can have a bite of eggs even if they are separated from each other.
However, most of them are saved up, and when a certain amount is reached, they are taken to the purchasing station in the county and sold in exchange for some money.
After all, the family can barely make ends meet with just the wages they earn!
It's always good to have one more source of money.
Shi Jiang and his three nieces and nephews would go to the hillside every morning to dig for earthworms, and in the afternoon they would go to the river to pick up snail shells and bring them home to feed the chickens.
The reason why the original owner fell into the river was because he went to touch the snail shell by the river and his foot slipped and he fell into the water.
Therefore, when Shi Jiang wanted to touch the snail shells by the river after digging for earthworms on the hillside, Shi Huan firmly disagreed.
Her mother has said that the girl is not very clear-headed right now. If she can't think clearly, she is only so old and can't stop her, not to mention that her two younger brothers are both little carrots.
The little girl had no choice but to take the earthworms home, chop them up and throw them into the chicken coop.
Then I took a small bench and sat in the yard, looking at the sky with my head empty.
When Shi Huan saw her sister-in-law like this, she breathed a sigh of relief. She felt that her decision was right and she would not let her go to the river.
Little did he know that although Shi Jiang's eyes were empty, his mind was still spinning.
She had been a queen and queen mother for so long in the previous world. Even after she left the palace, Joy took care of her daily life along the way. She had long been accustomed to being taken care of.
Now, in the 1970s, we are in rural areas again, and every household has to work in the fields to earn work points.
Although her parents, brothers and sisters-in-law seem to be doting on her now, she can't just be a bastard all her life, right?
But Shi Jiang felt that she couldn't bear it if she was asked to work in the fields with the people in the village.
In today's society, if you don't work, you won't have food to eat.
Although Shi Jiang has a hundred dollars' bag and doesn't have to worry about food and drink, there must be a source of funds, right?
Being wary of danger in times of peace, her brother and sister-in-law don't think anything of her having free meals at home.
But what if Liu Chunhua and the others are gone?
The brother and sister-in-law already have their own families, so it’s impossible to support her like this unconditionally!
After all, in the hearts of the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law, they feel that the sister-in-law will eventually get married. How many years can she remain a girl in her parents' family?
If the mother-in-law is willing to pamper her sister-in-law, it’s useless for them to object. They might as well go along with the flow and pamper her sister-in-law too!
In this case, the parents-in-law saw it, felt relieved, and treated them better.
All I can say is that everyone has their own way of dealing with others.
In some families, the daughter-in-law is unwilling to accept the old man's bowl of water, and the family is no longer peaceful. Some are like the Shi family, who are harmonious and thoughtful.
What Shi Jiang has to do is to find a job that is suitable for her and that can make money when her elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law are not complaining.
Seeing the clouds in the sky changing constantly, Shi Jiang clapped her hands. How could she forget that she was actually a high school student!
Thinking of this, she stood up with bright eyes and entered her room.
Shi Huan was originally startled when her sister-in-law stood up and looked at her nervously. When she saw her sister-in-law entering the house, she ran to the door and looked in through the crack in the door.
I saw my sister-in-law sitting at the table by the window, holding a pen and paper, not knowing what she was writing.
Seeing that his sister-in-law didn't do anything else, Shi Huan breathed a sigh of relief and took his two younger brothers to dance in the yard.
Shi Jiang took out a notebook from his bag, and then took out a pen, scribbling and drawing on the notebook. After a while, a cartoon character appeared, and then he drew an educational
four-panel cartoon.
After drawing four pictures in a row, the plots in them were all related, and then Shi Jiang stopped.
After looking at the sky outside, she put down her pen and went out to start cooking.
When the meal was ready, the family all returned home.
"My little sister's craftsmanship seems to have improved a lot today. Why is this cabbage so fragrant?"
The eldest brother, Shi Jinbao, shoveled several mouthfuls of rice into his mouth. He also picked up a chopstick of cabbage and stuffed it into his mouth.
Liu Chunhua looked at the oily soup in the vinegar cabbage and felt a little distressed.
My daughter, she used up a month’s supply of vegetable oil in one meal!
However, thinking about how uncomfortable my daughter has been these past few days, if I scold her a few more words and can't think about it anymore, what can a month's worth of vegetable oil do?
I slapped my mouth a few times, but since I couldn't curse, I had to endure it.
Anyway, I've used it, and there's no point in scolding it.
"As expected of my daughter, the food she cooks is delicious."
Not only did Liu Chunhua not scold her, she also praised him.
Seeing the pained expression on her face, Shi Jiang pursed his lips and smiled, and said to his parents, brothers and sister-in-law.
"You work all day long, and if you don't have any oil or water, your body won't be able to bear it. Therefore, whether you want to save this oil depends on the time. In these busy days of farming, if we save the oil and don't eat it, we will have to use it when the time comes.
I spent money to go to the doctor, not to mention my body was exhausted, and my money was wasted. Mom, don’t you think it’s not worth it at all?”
When everyone heard Shi Jiang's words, they were stunned for a moment. If you think about it carefully, what the younger sister said really makes sense.
Especially Shi Guofu, he pondered for a moment, nodded, and agreed with what his daughter said.
"My little sister is right. Farming is busy during this period. Although our family cannot eat meat every day to replenish our body, we must eat more oily food. Otherwise, if we work in the fields, we will be exhausted and the gain will not be worth the loss."
When her family made the decision, Liu Chunhua would not contradict her wife in front of her son and daughter, no matter how much pain she felt in her heart.
When the three children in the family heard what their grandfather said, they all cheered knowing that they would be able to eat such delicious dishes made by their aunt for a while.
For a moment, the only sound on the table was the sound of chopsticks picking at the rice bowl.
After finishing the meal, Shi Jiang cleaned up the dishes and went back to her room, sat down and continued her four-frame comic.
This was her way of making money, so she had to draw more lines and cast a wider net.
