Chapter 15 Talking about people behind their backs

Facing such complaints from Milan Lan, Li Muyang in his previous life would have blushed and run away in shame.

But now, he just smiled gently and said: "Sister-in-law, thank you for your hard work. If you need help with anything at home, just call me and I will help you."

Milan Lan was very surprised again. She looked at Li Muyang carefully for a few times and after confirming that it was him, she said angrily: "I don't want your help, just don't bother me."

After saying that, he huffed and left.

"Sister-in-law, walk slowly."

Li Muyang watched his sister-in-law leave, then turned around and returned home.

When I arrived at the door of my house, I saw many washed diapers and clothes hanging on the clothesline from a distance, and they were dripping with water.

It should have just been hung up after washing.

When I opened the door and went in, I found that the sheets and quilts on the kang were neatly folded and tidied up.

The mother was facing inside, but when she heard the sound of the door opening, she asked again: "Lan, you can go back as soon as you finish your work. There are things at home waiting for you. I guess the fifth child should be back soon."

"Mom, it's me."

Li Muyang took off the bag and put it on the Eight Immortals table, walked over and sat on the edge of the Kang, "I just saw my sister-in-law at the door."

"You're back. Your sister-in-law has been busy here all day. Mom is really useless. I don't know why she can't control her stomach today. She wants to go to the toilet after a while, which makes her busy and has no time to wash things."

"I saw that everything was hanging out to dry."

Li Muyang thought about the complaining look on his sister-in-law's face just now. It's true that she has such a personality. She doesn't forgive others when things are done, so she doesn't feel good inside or outside.

In his previous life, he couldn't understand the complexity of human nature, and thought there was something wrong with his sister-in-law. Now it seems that she is just an ordinary woman, and a good woman among ordinary women.

Except for some nonsense, in fact, I have been worthy of my husband, children and elderly people throughout my life, and I have not actually wronged anyone.

"Didn't you go to Xishan to look for Cordyceps sinensis? What was the result?"

When his mother asked about Cordyceps, Li Muyang became interested. He jumped on the kang and showed his mother the cans and bottles in his bag.

"Look, I dug up 19 pieces. Judging from the quality, 3 cents for one piece is more than enough. 19 pieces is more than 5 yuan."

Yuan Rufeng was also very surprised when she saw Cordyceps sinensis, with a bit of unbelievable surprise in her eyes.

"You really found it. I was thinking this morning that you must have misjudged it and mistook something else for Cordyceps. In that case, I can indeed get some money, just enough to save you a wife."<

/p>

"Mom, I heard from the doctor that your disease is just hemiplegia caused by high blood pressure. It can still be cured. When I save enough money, we will go to the city to see a doctor in a big hospital..."

"Don't look at it. I know that my illness is hopeless. I'll freeze just lying on the kang. You brothers can roll me up in a torn mat and bury me next to your dad (Dad's meaning)..."<

/p>

Mother started again.

"Don't buy a coffin. People are dead. Why do you need a coffin? The coffin won't rot. It's a waste of money. When you were alive, you didn't enjoy happiness. Why do you do so many flowers and tricks after you die?

!"

Li Muyang smiled and listened to her mother's nagging.

When you can nag, it’s good to listen more. But when she dies, there’s no place to go if you want to nag.

When my mother was alive, everything was just thoughts, and I seemed to still have hope.

Once you die, the world seems to have ended, and you can no longer see the way back.

"Mom, are you hungry?"

"I'm not hungry. Your sister-in-law has fed me and I'm very full now."

"Then you lie down first and I'll go work in the fields."

"Ah, you just came back. Why don't you take a break? Why are you in such a hurry to go to the fields?"

"I'm not tired." Li Muyang put his mother's hand under the quilt and touched the kang under his mother's body. It was quite hot. He squatted down and opened the kang door and found that there was fire inside.

"Your sister-in-law burned me on the kang. She has a bit of a bad mouth, but everything else is pretty good."

"Mom, don't keep saying that to others behind their backs. How uncomfortable would they feel if they were heard?"

Yuan Rufeng was stunned and said: "What you said makes sense, just don't say it anymore."

"Well, it's not easy for everyone. Don't look at what she says, but look at how she does it. Some people talk brightly and have a lot of good things to say, but when it comes to things, they just can't find anyone.

This kind of talent is not good."

"What my son said makes sense."

"Not much to say, I'm going to plow the ground first. Didn't it snow just now? I'll plow the ground while there's a little moisture (that is, moisture). It won't take more than two days for the sun to dry it out and it will rain.

Don’t know where it is yet?”

"It's too hard for you." Mother felt sad again.

Li Muyang quickly "escaped" from the room.

He doesn't mind his mother talking, but once she starts nagging him, he won't be able to farm.

When he went out, it was getting dark, so he picked up a hoe and a round-headed shovel and went to the fields.

He still had Liang Liang, whom he had just touched from the kitchen, in his mouth.

When they reached the ground, Liang Liang was devoured.

Although my stomach was not completely full, I didn't care about being reserved and started working immediately.

When Li Muyang split up his family, there were three pieces of land in total.

The two mountain fields add up to about one-acre and seven-quarters of land.

There is also a contracted thirty-acre peach orchard.

The Taoyuan is located on Taoshan Mountain. It was originally allocated to every household by the team, but because the Taoyuan did not bear peaches, it gradually became a wasteland. Later, the villagers returned the contracted Taoyuan together, and Li Muyang followed suit.
p>

I received a subsidy of thirty yuan.

One acre of peach orchard is just one yuan in subsidy.

The thought he had in the morning that he could rent an acre of peach grove for one dollar also came from this. Since the refund is a subsidy of one dollar, then if it is re-rented, it should be one dollar per acre.

Both fields are very small.

Of course, other families in the village don’t have much land either.

Since it is a mountain field, it certainly cannot be considered on the same scale as flat land. Most of it is less than an acre.

Farming is also very troublesome.

Don’t even think about tractors, it’s impossible.

It is possible to use livestock for farming, but it is too expensive.

Nowadays, food is expensive, so livestock are very precious. Whether they are cattle or mules, they are quite rare.

There are hundreds of households in the entire village, but only two or three cows and one mule.

It's very expensive to ask those guys to farm. When the money for farming is spent, farming will be meaningless. It's better to just leave it uncultivated.

Since there are no animals, we can only resist with manpower.

Li Muyang threw the hoe to the ground, grabbed the round-headed shovel and started digging the ground.

The sky is getting darker and darker, the moon is getting brighter and brighter, and the bats in the sky begin to float around, like big moths.

The shrill cries of night owls came from the distant mountains and forests, and many unknown little insects began to dig their heads out of the soil, chirping non-stop.
