Chapter 45: Terrible
“You are like this, what else do I want with this broken body? I will die early and be reborn!”
“Mother, please don’t say this.” Wu Xiong I was so anxious that I didn't know what to do, so I could only kneel on the ground, "I made my mother angry, it's all my fault."
When Han saw this, his anger became even stronger. layer.
It was the same every time. When I scolded him, I knew I was wrong.
But as soon as he leaves this door, he still behaves the same way and does those things.
Taken that sentence seriously, admit your mistakes humbly, and never change despite repeated admonitions!
Ms. Han didn't bother to look at his miserable son, so he simply turned away angrily.
"Mom, I have actually changed a lot now." Wu Xiong explained in a low voice, "I also discipline those people below every day, and I will never let them bully the elderly or children... ..."
Seeing that Mrs. Han still didn't want to pay attention to him, Wu Xiong shrank his neck and just changed the topic, "By the way, just now, mother-in-law said that someone sent mother back. Who was that person? Am I It would be better to come and say thank you?”
"With your appearance, I'm afraid you'll come to my door and scare this little lady!" Han refused on the spot without thinking, "When my foot heals, I'll come to my door to say thank you, so you don't have to worry!"
"Yes." Wu Xiong agreed obediently, then reached out and touched his cheek.
How can he scare people?
Isn’t it just that he has a beard?
But the people below all said that he looked the most heroic and handsome with his full beard!
Maybe my mother is getting older and can no longer keep up with the aesthetic preferences of young people...
Wu Xiong was thinking, but Han shouted again, "You go out, don't stay here, It looks very annoying!"
"Yes..." Wu Xiong stood up, "If you call me again if you have anything, I will be outside the courtyard and won't go far."
After that. , seeing that Mr. Han didn't even give him a cold snort, he could only walk out of the house angrily and all the way to the outside of the yard.
Two attendants were waiting outside the courtyard gate. When they saw Wu Xiong coming out, they rushed to greet her, "Brother, are you okay?"
"It's okay. I've already seen the doctor. It's just that my mother refused to tell me the kind person who sent her back, so I can't come to say thank you."
Wu Xiong looked around as he spoke. "Here is Gou Sheng, that boy Where are you going?"
"I just said I felt sick, I guess I went to find a hut." One of them replied, "Brother, we are going to collect the debt later, will you come with us?"
"You two go first." Wu Xiong glanced into the yard, "My mother is in a bad mood today, and I'm afraid I'll offend her again. You two should do your job nicely, and don't let those people in the Yamen find you if you make a fuss. What's wrong?"
"If there are women, children, and elderly people at home, let them stay away. Young people who are strong must use their hands when they should, and they should be careful not to kill others. That’s it.”
"Don't worry, brother, we know what we know."
The two responded, "Brother, take us two brothers to say hello to the aunt. When the aunt feels better, we will visit her again."
< br>"Yes." Wu Xiong raised his hand, "It's not early, you go early, go early and come back early."
"Yes."
Watching the two people go Far away, Wu Xiong returned to the yard.
He didn't dare to sit in the yard, fearing that Mr. Han would be upset if he saw him through the window, so he just took a mat and sat behind the jujube tree in the yard.
When Xia Mingyue went back, Xia Ji had already closed the stall, so she walked back directly.
Many stalls were selling food on the street, and Xia Mingyue saw someone selling rice dumplings.
It’s almost the Dragon Boat Festival. Xia Mingyue lamented that time passed so quickly, and saw someone selling rice dumpling leaves not far away.
Most of the rice dumpling leaves here are reed leaves, which are freshly picked and have a unique fragrance.
Seeing Xia Mingyue stop, the young man selling zongzi leaves hurriedly solicited customers, "Bring some zongzi leaves, my zongzi leaves are all fresh and can be washed clean."
Xia Mingyue looked through it and saw that all the rice dumpling leaves were generous, intact and quite clean.
But...
"Are there any bamboo leaves?" Xia Mingyue preferred the fragrance of bamboo to reeds.
"No..." The young man paused and then said, "If you want, I can pick it, but the bamboo leaves are very small, so I'm afraid it won't be possible to make rice dumplings."
The location of Jinqiu County Although there is no shortage of bamboo trees in the north, the temperature difference does not allow for large areas of bamboo forests. Most of the bamboos that can grow are thin and have short leaves.
It is indeed not suitable for making rice dumplings.
"Do you sell fresh bamboo poles here?" Xia Mingyue asked again.
"I... can sell it."
There is no owner in the wild bamboo forest. Just cut down a few branches and you will make money. You are selling rice dumpling leaves and bamboo poles. There is no difference.
The young man immediately decided to take over this business, "How many bamboo poles does this lady want?"
"Three or four bamboo poles should be installed first, about this thickness." Xia Mingyue Put your thumb and index finger together and roughly indicate the size, "But it must be clean and complete, even in size, branches Just remove it, just the middle part."
"Yes." The young man agreed repeatedly, "But we have to agree in advance that the bamboo must be cut now and transported here. A bamboo must be at least ten years old. If you have less money, you won’t be able to earn it.”
He now makes dozens of money a day selling rice dumpling leaves.
Cutting bamboo is more difficult.
"Yes." The ground should fall.
The two of them agreed to deliver the bamboo to their home tomorrow and a half afternoon. Xia Mingyue bought some rice dumpling leaves for the time being, and then went to the food store to buy glutinous rice and other items.
When Xia Mingyue arrived home, Jiang Zhuguo and Lu had already washed the dishes and prepared things for the next day.
"My brothers and sisters are finally back." Mrs. Lu breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Xia Mingyue. "My brothers and sisters have been missing all this time. I just thought that something happened. I just wanted the two tigers to look for you."
“I met an old lady with a sprained foot on the road. It took some effort to send her back." Xia Mingyue explained, "When I came back, I went to the food store to buy some glutinous rice, red beans and candied dates."
"Sister Xia is planning to make rice dumplings? Jiang Zhuguo pursed his lips and asked with a smile.
"That's right." Xia Mingyue nodded, "But I haven't made zongzi for a long time, so I have to try it first. I don't know if it will taste good or not."
"It must be delicious." Mrs. Lu added, "Speaking of the Dragon Boat Festival, I have to quickly find some cloth and thread, and yes, I also have to buy some spices."
During the Dragon Boat Festival, people should hang sachets, wear colorful bracelets on their wrists, hang mugwort leaves at the door, eat rice dumplings, steamed whole eggs, and steamed whole garlic.
Mrs. Lu counted with her fingers, "I will go to the street to look for mugwort leaves tomorrow when I have time. It happens that my brothers and sisters don't have much garlic here, so I will take a look at them all."
