Spring scenery in the fields

Chapter 167 Two people fighting

"You are not allowed to go, you spendthrift woman. Go to the village head's house tomorrow afternoon to help plant rice, and plant the land in two days."

Zhou Xiaoyu was angry, but because he was her elder and they were outside, she couldn't argue with him.

He turned his head and looked at the person not far away.

Feng Xiayun was so angry that she threw the seedlings in her hand into the field, walked up the ridge step by step, and cursed.

"You are so good, Shen Shuisheng. I have been married to you for so many years, I have given birth to your children, and worked so hard to run this family. Even if I have no credit, I have worked hard."

"I have an old problem with my waist. I couldn't sleep last night because of the pain. It would be fine if you didn't care, but you even called me a spendthrift."

She walked past Shen Zhong and grabbed Shen Shuisheng's hair, crying and cursing.

"You black-hearted thing, I was blind. I have never had a good day in my life since I married you..."

"Let go, let go of my hand!"

Feng Xiayun didn't listen to him at all and started to wrestle with him, leaving bloody marks on her face and neck.

Zhou Xiaoyu tried to persuade them but didn't step forward to separate them: "Mom, stop hitting me!"

He glanced at Shen Zhong, whose face was ashen, and ignored him. After persuading him for a while, he went to the field and started planting rice.

She discussed it with her mother-in-law last night and the village head will definitely come to their house and ask her father-in-law to help.

If two people want to avoid going, they have to put on a show.

"You old woman, let me go. If you don't, I will be rude to you."

Shen Shuisheng never fought back because he was afraid that beating his wife would give him a bad reputation.

But Feng Xiayun didn't care about that. She yelled at the top of her voice: "You old bastard, I won't let go. Let's see what you can do to me!"

"I was blind to marry you, and have worked hard for your family all my life, but I haven't gotten any benefits, and I have to endure your anger all day long."

"I……"

"That's enough!" Shen Zhong stared at them with an unpleasant expression, "Why are you fighting? You're making fun of yourself."

"Feng Xiayun, he is your man, you can beat him up whenever you want, where can you put his face?"

Feng Xiayun was a little afraid of Shen Zhong. Now that they had a grandson-in-law who worked in the government, she didn't dare to offend them easily.

He let go of the hand that was holding Shen Shuisheng's hair, walked past him with a cold face, and said nothing.

"Hey, Li Zheng, I'm sorry to make you laugh. I'll go to your house to help after we finish planting the rice seedlings tomorrow."

His hair was disheveled and his clothes were torn open, revealing his lean chest.

He put his clothes in order, touched his face which was scratched and bleeding, and his face instantly turned dark again.

Hearing him say he was going to help, Shen Zhong's expression improved a little: "Hurry up and plant the rice."

Day after day, it's full of bad things.

He turned away with a wave of his sleeves.

After the others walked away, Shen Shuisheng looked at the two people in front of him and said, "Go to the headman's house to help tomorrow afternoon. Ask Zhuyue and Huizhou to come along as well."

However, the two people in front of him ignored him.

He was angry, but there was nothing he could do. Once his wife started making a fuss, he couldn't handle it.

Zhou Xiaoyu thought to herself: If you want to go, go by yourself. Don’t drag me, my mother-in-law, my son and my daughter along to suffer with you.

In the evening, Shen Wenshan carried a basket into the village and met Shen Ping by the field.

"Wenshan, all the goods have been sold."

"No, Uncle Ping. They are busy in the fields. Not many people bought. I left half of it. I will go again tomorrow."

"Uncle Ping, you go ahead and do your work. I'm going home."

He smiled and responded, "Yeah, okay."

When I passed by Lan Qiuhua's house, I saw her feeding chickens in the yard and greeted her with a smile.

"Aunt Lan, feeding."

"Yes, Wenshan is back, and your sister-in-law just went back."

She came out of the chicken coop.

"Wenshan, leave your things at my house. Your uncle Shen and Anguo have gone to town. I have cleaned up the house."

"It's very troublesome for you to carry it from the mountain, so just leave it at my house from now on."

"Wait until the two of them come back to live here, then you can go up the mountain."

Shen Wenshan was not polite: "Thank you, Aunt Lan. I'll leave it at your house then."

"Oh, why are you being so polite to your aunt?"

Shen Suya came out of the house and said to him with a smile: "Brother Wenshan, my sister-in-law bought rice dumplings, some with candied dates and some with pure glutinous rice."

She also wanted to eat candied date rice dumplings, but she couldn't bear to spend the money.

"Then I have to go home quickly and help my sister-in-law cook."

Shen Wenshan put the things away and went to the kitchen door to say something to the person inside.

"Aunt Lan, I'm home."

"Hey, go back."

I walked briskly up the mountain, saw white smoke coming out of the chimney, and trotted back in a good mood.

Before he even entered the kitchen, he called out in the yard: "Sister-in-law, I'm back."

As soon as I entered the kitchen, I saw a few rice dumplings on the table.

The smile on his face widened: "Sister-in-law, why did you buy so much."

Ji Wenhe smiled and said, "Two for each person, one pure zongzi and one candied date zongzi."

He poked his head out from behind the stove and said, "It's ready at noon. It's been cooled in the house. Come and eat it."

Shen Wenshan couldn't wait to pick it up and eat it, but he retracted his outstretched hand and said, "Sister-in-law, I'll light the fire and wait for them to come back and eat together."

"Eat it. Your elder brother and I had one at noon. Sit on the stool and take a rest. You look sweaty."

She ate a candied date rice dumpling, and Shen Rongshan ate a plain rice dumpling.

The candied date rice dumplings are not sweet at all, they just have the original taste of dates.

The boss said that the rice dumplings were soaked in sugar water, which was a complete lie. The taste was completely different from the candied date rice dumplings she had eaten in her previous life.

"The small ones are pure zongzi, and the big ones are candied date zongzi."

The big ones aren’t much bigger.

Shen Wenshan nodded and picked up a pure glutinous rice dumpling: "Sister-in-law, where is my brother?"

He saw no one in the fields.

"Your eldest brother went to sell goods."

Ji Wenhe informed him that if Shen Zhong asked them to help with planting rice, they would use the excuse of selling goods to avoid going.

"It's hot now, you can find a cool place to rest at noon, or go there in the afternoon and rest at home in the morning."

He shook his head: "It's okay, I'd better go out in the morning, otherwise I won't sell much in a day."

They were walking, which was not as fast as the donkey cart.

It would take several hours to walk around the village, including stopping to rest.

He sat on a small bench, looking at the yard, eating the rice dumpling in his hand bite by bite, squinting his eyes in enjoyment.

At this time, Shen Yuanshan's voice came from outside the house: "Sister-in-law, I'm back."

"Yuanshan, come and eat some rice dumplings." Shen Wenshan smiled with his mouth bent, "Sister-in-law bought some candied date rice dumplings."

They originally thought she would only buy plain rice dumplings, but they didn't expect her to buy candied date rice dumplings.

Ji Wenhe walked out from behind the stove, lifted the lid of the pot, and ate wild vegetable dumpling soup in the evening.

The dishes were ready at noon, including cold-mixed purslane, stir-fried cucumber and meat slices, and a spicy and sour cucumber will be mixed later.

Shen Suya brought over several cucumbers, two tomatoes and two eggplants.

Shen Yuanshan took the rice dumplings and walked to the back of the stove to light the fire: "Sister-in-law, where is my brother?"

"He's out selling goods. He should be back soon."
