Chapter 140 Lu Zhi was murdered by a woman for the first time!
After Jiu Niangzi followed them to the street, Li Tannian was busy making a living and could not take care of her, so he only asked her to discuss with Shen Yanzhi.
Thinking of her brother's stubborn temper, Jiu Niangzi stopped pestering Li Tannian and went home directly.
At noon, when the sun was shining, someone drove a donkey cart over to the market and started selling sweet potato vines.
There are many families raising cattle in the town. At this time, they all joined in. You buy a few kilograms, I buy a few kilograms. In a blink of an eye, there is only a small pile of sweet potato vines left in the big cart.
Seeing that no one was selling, the boss pocketed the money and shouted: "Sold for cheap, two copper coins are so much! Buy it back and feed the pigs, sheep and cattle!"
Li Tannian closed the stall and when passing by the entrance, she happened to meet the other party yelling enthusiastically. Seeing such a huge pile of sweet potato vines selling for two copper coins, she thought of her own wasteland that was mostly empty.
These sweet potato vines should be able to fill up her wasteland. She also feeds pigs and sheep at home. Not only will the livestock at home have rations in the future, but they will also be able to dig sweet potatoes to eat. How great!
Li Tannian immediately paid for the pile of sweet potato vines.
After returning to the house, she pinched off the tender vine tips one by one, fried some sweet potato tips for the three little ones, heated up the rice dumplings, and made a meal.
After the meal, she used scissors to cut the sweet potato vines into a suitable length, and then led Erbao and Sanya to cut the sweet potato vines in the wasteland.
Erbao and Sanya are very diligent.
All of a sudden, one of them was responsible for digging the hole and the other was responsible for cutting. Their movements were so fast that Li Tannian was shocked.
Not having enough to eat, he drove his sheep by the roadside. Seeing this, he couldn't help but stop.
However, he just looked at it thoughtfully for a while, and then drove the sheep away honestly.
After Li Tannian and his wife finished cutting the sweet potato vines and put away the cages, Song Cuixi came back from her parents' home.
It turned out that she had already gone back to her natal village to spread the word, and everyone in the village was willing to send eels. She was going to collect eels from the village early tomorrow morning.
Li Tannian thought for a while and said to her: "You can go directly to the April Sky Restaurant, and I won't go."
With her here, Naluo Kui might have to trouble Sister-in-law Cuixi. Anyway, April Day is out of stock, so it would be nice to see someone else give it to Na Luo Kui.
Song Cuixi thought she was too busy, so she didn't think much about it. She told her some interesting things about her parents' family before leaving.
In the afternoon, the sky became gloomy, and soon it started to rain heavily.
Li Tannian had just packed half of the crayfish in the wooden barrel and came out. Seeing this, she hurriedly moved all the crayfish in the wooden barrel to the eaves. The three little ones also lifted the small stools to the eaves and continued to help her pull the shrimp tails. .
Lu Zhi took the newly knitted straw sandals back into the room and brought a small stool out to help Li Tannian cut off the shrimp's head.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, falling from the eaves like broken beads. In an instant, the only sound left between the sky and the earth was the sound of "swish, swish, swish" of rainwater.
Li Tannian was idle, so he simply started telling stories to the three little ones.
However, she did not continue to tell "Journey to the West", but directly told everyone a ghost story.
On a gloomy rainy day, coupled with ghost stories, the atmosphere is really full!
Coupled with the vividness of her words, everyone was attracted to her in a short time.
Lu Zhi didn't believe in gods or Buddhas, and he didn't like listening to strange things. But now, for some reason, he was unknowingly addicted to her story.
Seeing her dancing and making little moves from time to time, or making some weird noises in a pretentious manner, he couldn't help but be stunned. He felt that the agility between her brows and eyes was indescribably attractive.
Later, it was Li Tannian who smiled at him, and he finally came back to his senses, calmly averted his eyes and continued working.
After Li Tannian told them several ghost stories in succession, they all dug out several barrels of crayfish, but the rain hadn't stopped yet.
Li Tannian looked through the rain curtain at the small stove on the side. There was only a small shed built on top of the stove. The light rain was okay, but with today's heavy rain, a lot of rainwater leaked from the stove.
It's getting dark now, and it's not clear when it will rain. Li Tannian can't help but feel a little anxious, fearing that if he can't produce anything today, he won't have anything to sell tomorrow.
Lu Zhi noticed her gaze, paused and said, "I'll take you to Sanniang's house to cook."
With that said, he stood up and helped her carry a bucket of shrimps.
Lu Zhi's legs are currently in the repair period. On weekdays, he can move around a little bit, but it is absolutely impossible to lift heavy objects.
So, when Li Tannian saw him like this, she immediately became furious. She stood up and snatched the barrel from his hand. She said angrily: "Don't you want to stop?"
This was the first time Lu Zhi was raped by a woman!
At first, he couldn't react, but after he realized that she was worried about him, he unconsciously curled up his lips.
As the man of the family, he should share some of her burdens for her, but now seeing her stern face, he had no choice but to hold back angrily.
"Then let's go to San Niang's house first. The road outside is slippery, so please be careful. If it's Ah Shi's house, I'll ask him to come over and help carry it."
Li Tannian nodded.
The three little ones also wanted to go with them, but there were only two coir raincoats at home. After much thought, she decided to go to Yuan San's house to borrow coir raincoats first, and then take them there one by one.
Xiaosi Bao was small and did not take up much space. Li Tannian simply held him in his arms, carried the barrel in one hand, and walked out.
Little Si Bao was very happy. From time to time, she would stretch out a hand from her arms to catch the rainwater and then shake it away with great effort. Seeing Li Tannian's laughter, she thought that children really like to play with water.
Lu Zhi couldn't help but frown.
Seeing the little four treasures twisting and turning in her arms, he was afraid that he would cause her to fall, so he couldn't help but scolded her in a cold voice: "Stay there and don't move!"
When Xiao Sibao was yelled at by him, he actually stayed motionless in Li Tannian's arms.
When the three of them arrived at Yuan San's house, Feng Shi was wiping his hair under the eaves, as if he had just come back from outside.
"Sanlang, why are you here?"
He was overjoyed, and when he heard that Li Tannian and the others were here to borrow the stove, he directly led them into the stove room.
"Ashi, help her go over and pick up the crayfish." Lu Zhi said after arriving at the kitchen house.
Feng Shi didn't expect that Lu Zhi would still care about Li Tannian. Although he was surprised, he was also happy to see it happen, and he immediately responded cheerfully.
After he and Lu Zhi made two or three consecutive trips, they finally brought all the crayfish over.
In the stove room, Yuan Sanniang had already set up the fire. The three little ones walked over and sat in a row around Yuan Sanniang. They didn't say a few words for an hour and made Yuan Sanniang burst into laughter.
The kitchen in Yuan Sanniang's house was not big, so after Li Tannian moved the crayfish in, he kicked Lu Zhi out.
Lu Zhi and Feng Shi were sitting under the eaves and heard the sound in the kitchen. He couldn't help but look back and the corners of his lips curled up unconsciously.
Feng Shi turned to look at him and was startled: "Sanlang, you are laughing."
Lu Zhi's expression paused: "Is there any?"
Feng Shi nodded quickly, glanced in the direction of his kitchen, and smiled, thinking that it would be strange for Saburo not to smile. If he had such a good wife, he would have to laugh even in his dreams.
The two watched the rain for a while and talked about the recent situation. Li Tannian had already cooked two pots of crayfish and came out.
Seeing that the rain was not about to stop, Li Tannian called Lu Zhi and Feng Shi over and brought a large basin of braised crayfish to the table. He then helped Yuan Sanniang to the table and let them eat first.
Feng Shi was really hungry. After these days of getting along, he was used to not being polite to Li Tannian, so he immediately took the three little ones and sat down with his mother.
Yuan Sanniang was a little embarrassed: "Shi'er, Sister Nian has to go to the town to sell money tomorrow. After you finish eating, what will she sell?"
Li Tannian lit a fire under the stove and smiled slightly.
"Sanlang made a cage for me. It's easy to catch these things. Sanniang, don't be polite to me. This is not a valuable thing."
Is she praising him?
Lu Zhi lowered his head to peel the shrimps. He suddenly realized that being praised by her was not bad.
