MTL - The Lucky Farmgirl has a Pocket Dimension-Chapter 12 cousin

  Chapter 12 Cousin

  Xiaoyi Village and Zhaozhai Village are next to each other, separated by a small river, crossing a small stone bridge, and then arrived at Zhaozhai Village.

   At this time, it was noon. Although it had just entered summer, the sun was still very strong at noon, and the villagers who went to the fields to do farm work also returned home one after another.

  Walking on the road, from time to time, I can meet a few villagers from the same village who came back from the fields.

   No, as soon as I arrived at the village, I met Sun Liuniang, the daughter-in-law of the stone. Sun Liuniang's natal family is from the same village as Sun Mei's natal family.

   Coincidentally, after getting married, Zhao Shitou and Zhao Dong are also good brothers, and now they are neighbors, separated by a wall, so they have a good relationship.

   Not only did he greet Sun Mei warmly as soon as he saw her. The two chatted for a few words before Sun Liuniang talked about Sun Mei's sister-in-law, Zhu Sanniang.

   "Tsk tsk, let me tell you, your elder brother is also unlucky to marry such a crazy woman as Zhu Sanniang. However, he left early now, I don't know if it's luck or misfortune."

  Sun Liuniang is very simple and has no evil intentions, but there is one thing, that is, she has the problem of talking like a country woman, and she likes to talk about something that doesn't please her.

  No, I must have seen Zhu's fault today, and I started to feel aggrieved.

"As soon as your elder brother leaves, the family will be divided. The Zhu family has completely exposed the prototype now. The whole family is a lazy woman, and the three children in the family will suffer. No, there are two now. I heard that this morning, She sold the girl doll at home!

  Tell me, in this era of peace and prosperity and good weather, which family would sell their sons and daughters? If you ask me, she is cruel! "

  Sun Mei sighed silently, but did not answer Sun Liuniang's words.

  Sun Liuniang also knew Sun Mei's temperament, she was a person who didn't like to talk, so she didn't want to let Sun Mei answer, so she started complaining on her own.

   "Tell me, this summer, I rest at home by myself and let the two children come out to work. If I remember correctly, her eldest son is only ten years old, and the youngest is only eight years old.

  Although the children of the peasants are tough and work early, but she rests by herself and lets the children do all the work, no matter what.

Let me tell you, the person who was struck by lightning didn’t know how he wasted the two children at home. Now, the sun is so bright, and the two children are still busy in the field. The passing villagers are urging them to go home and have a meal first. They didn't even dare! "

  Zhao Zhitong, who had forgotten about this at first, remembered it again. She felt uncomfortable hearing it, and subconsciously hugged Sun Mei's neck tightly, and called out in a viscous voice: "Mother~"

   "Hey, it's okay, mother is here." Sun Mei lifted Zhao Zhitong up and spoke softly.

  Sun Liuniang, who was talking happily on the side, didn't know what she just said, which made Zhao Zhitong feel uncomfortable. At this moment, when she turned around, she suddenly saw a few villagers walking towards them in a hurry, who seemed to be carrying a person.

  As soon as the group of people approached, she recognized the person being carried, and immediately exclaimed: "Oh, isn't this the Dalang of the Zhu family! What's wrong?"

  Sun Mei recognized it herself, and she was also surprised.

   Among the group of people carrying Zhao Cheng, there happened to be Tian Cuihua, the daughter-in-law of the village chief, so he told the story while walking.

  In general, it is similar to what Sun Liuniang said, the two children are still working in the field on a hot day, and a warm-hearted person like Tian Cuihua will definitely persuade her when she sees her.

   Coincidentally, just as she was about to tell them to go back, Zhao Chengcheng fell headfirst on the ground. At that time, she was frightened, and hurriedly called the passing villagers to carry him back to the village.

  Among them, an experienced villager could tell at a glance that the child didn't faint from heatstroke, but from hunger.

  Sun Mei was surprised.

When the family was divided, her step-mother-in-law, Wang Shi, was a bit of a pickle, but the elder sister-in-law was an orphan and widowed mother, and the clansmen agreed that her family division was already a bit too much. Come.

   Therefore, she still got a lot of property. The land was also given 20 mu, and the flour and wheat were enough for her family of four to eat the wheat harvest. This did not include the ten taels of silver that Wang gave her.

  So, seeing her going to the point of selling her daughter today, Sun Mei couldn't understand. Originally, she thought that maybe she was too patriarchal, and she sold her daughter in order to feed her two sons well.

   But now, the boss is going to faint from hunger, it doesn't look like that.

   It seems that the wife of the village chief said that all good things do not fall on the child, so she did not slander her!

   A group of people carried Zhao Cheng and hurried to Zhu's house.

  However, what people didn't expect was that when they arrived at Zhu's house, they found that the door of their house was closed. After knocking for a long time, no one came to open it. It seemed that there was no one at home.

  Tian Cuihua was very puzzled: "It's strange, it's noon, Mrs. Zhu isn't cooking at home, where did he go?"

  The house cannot be entered, but the person must be saved. So, Sun Mei opened her mouth and asked someone to carry it to her home first.

   Seeing that Sun Mei took over the two children, the others were also relieved. After sending them to Sun Mei's house, the kind villagers also dispersed.

  Sun Mei went to the kitchen to fill a bowl from a bucket to cool it down. There was no other way. There was no kettle at home, and there was no way to boil the water when drinking. She definitely did not allow her family to drink the raw water in the tank.

  So, after cooking dinner, boil a pot of boiling water and pour it into the bucket.

  After filling it, Sun Mei dug a spoonful of white sugar from the sugar bowl and put it in until the sugar was completely melted before coming out with water.

  Long-term malnutrition, Zhao Cheng must have hypoglycemia now.

   After feeding him half a bowl of sugar water, the man slowly regained consciousness.

  Seeing that someone woke up, Tian Cuihua and Sun Liuniang both heaved a sigh of relief, said goodbye to Sun Mei, and went home.

  It’s noon, and they have to go home to cook.

  As soon as the people on their side left, the two brothers Zhao Cheng and Zhao Yu thanked Sun Mei and wanted to go home.

  Seeing that the two children are so skinny, their bodies, faces, and clothes are also dirty, they look like motherless children.

   Thinking of the words of the village chief’s wife, Sun Mei hurriedly stopped them: “Your mother is not at home, you wait with me for a while, I will cook some noodles for you, you fainted, eat something before leaving.”

  Zhao Zhitong lay on the table beside him, and also went to pull the two brothers: "Brother, don't leave, the noodles made by mother are delicious."

   "No, no, we, we won't eat." The two children refused again and again.

   As she said that, she was about to go out. How could Sun Mei really let them go? Now that Zhu Sanniang is not at home, they either have to go to the fields again, or they have to sit in front of the house and wait under the sun.

  Whether it was out of pity for the children or because of her own reputation, she couldn't let the two children go back directly.

  So he held them back again and again and asked them to have a meal at home. Maybe Sun Mei asked him a lot, and his younger brother Zhao Yu accidentally revealed his mouth.

   "I, we can't eat food from Second Aunt's house."

   It's just that, after speaking, the voice became smaller and smaller.
