Bab 58: Chapter 58: Scared
The secluded corner welcomed many men, women, old and young in the village, all gathered in Uncle Wei's yard.
At this moment, the yard had been cleared, and a bench as high as the thigh was placed in the middle.
The crowd was talking and laughing. Wei Jingshu tiptoed to look over there, quite curious. Just as she was about to go over, she was pulled by Li Rou.
Wei Jingshu didn't care about her image at all. At her age, the girls in the village already knew how to dress themselves, and would ask the villagers about men of the right age. Only Wei Jingshu was reluctant to throw away the patched clothes even if they were washed white. She made a hair flower for her, and it would disappear after two days of wearing it.
This made Li Rou worried.
"Go into the house and change your clothes first. If you wear this, people will think I'm bullying you." As she said, she pulled her high ponytail, "What do you look like? Look, which girl looks like you?"
Wei Jingshu smiled with her hands covering her lips, and her body had already leaned towards the direction of the courtyard gate.
Li Rou noticed something and caught Wei Jingshu who was about to leave.
After failing to escape, Wei Jingshu decided to change her clothes: "Sister-in-law, this dress is so nice, look!" She turned around. "Nowhere is broken, and it's comfortable to wear."
The materials used to make clothes at home are all uncomfortable. This one has been worn for several years and is comfortable to wear. This is why Wei Jingshu is unwilling to change. As for jewelry, it is even more of a hindrance to her. First, she is unwilling to wear it, and second, it is easy to lose it if she wears it.
But Li Rou in front of her is obviously determined to let her change her clothes. She grabbed her hand and refused to let go: "Either change and go, or don't go."
Wei Yu and Wei Shuang ran out of the house, both wearing new clothes. Li Rou immediately said: "Xiao Yu and Xiao Shuang have changed."
The two nodded in tacit understanding and cheered: "Sister-in-law, we will go first."
Wei Jingshu looked at it eagerly, looked at Li Rou several times, and did not get a response. Finally, she gave in: "I will change."
Li Rou was satisfied, but she was afraid that Wei Jingshu would pretend to obey, so she deliberately stood guard at the door.
Li Rou cut the dress herself. She chose the cheapest fabric and didn't dye it well. It was patchy and had different shades, but it was generally green.
Li Rou had good craftsmanship and the style of the dress was good, but the fabric was not good enough, so Wei Jingshu went out in a hesitant manner.
The perfect waistline outlined her waistline, and a thin belt added a sense of elegance.
But the shape was not good enough, so she had to stop and move after walking a few steps to relieve the discomfort caused by the dress.
Li Rou watched Wei Jingshu's joy of changing into new clothes disappear, and sighed: "It's because my sister-in-law is incompetent and has no money to buy you comfortable fabrics."
Speaking of money, Wei Jingshu realized belatedly that she still had two thousand taels of silver in her pocket. She mysteriously pulled Li Rou into the room and carefully took out silver bills of different denominations.
Seeing so many silver bills for the first time, Li Rou's first reaction was not happiness, but caution.
"Ashu, can you tell my sister-in-law where these banknotes come from?" She looked solemn, obviously very concerned about this matter.
Wei Jingshu also straightened her expression and answered seriously: "These are sold by picking Ganoderma lucidum."
"Ganoderma lucidum?" Li Rou frowned, "How come I don't know about this?"
Wei Jingshu told Li Rou the whole story of picking Ganoderma lucidum.
While talking, she curiously looked through the window at Uncle Wei's house, not hurried or slow, very comfortable: "Brother Shi Qi said not to let the villagers know about this, and I didn't take it seriously and forgot about it."
Li Rou never doubted Wei Jingshu's words. After learning the source of the banknotes, she breathed a sigh of relief. She took out half and stuffed it into Wei Jingshu's hand: "This is what you earned. Keep some for yourself and buy whatever you want. The remaining half, let's keep it for Xiaoyu and Xiaoshuang to go to school."
"Okay." Wei Jingshu agreed, and took out most of her share and stuffed it into Li Rou's hands, "These are for sister-in-law, I'll take these."
She saw a lot of people buying delicious food in the county, but she didn't want to go. Now that she has money, she can buy a lot more when she goes to the county next time!
Wei Jingshu cheered lightly for a while, and then set her eyes on Uncle Wei's house.
"Sister-in-law..." She stared eagerly, her thoughts were self-evident.
Li Rou smiled softly with her lips covered: "You girl, go ahead, go ahead, you are strong, remember to help more."
Wei Jingshu responded and ran out like the wind.
The pig has been pulled out, and several men in their thirties and forties work together to control the fat pig and move it to the table with effort.
"Old Wei, why don't you ask Liu the butcher?" One of the men asked.
Uncle Wei, sweating profusely, raised his head, his face full of bitterness: "I'm a step too late. Butcher Liu has already arrived and promised another family. It's hard to change the date. We can only ask everyone to work hard and pay attention."
As soon as he finished speaking, the pig that was held down stood up, and the few people holding it down were immediately thrown away. It turned over neatly and ran around in the yard.
The yard was in chaos, with people running around in groups of three or five.
"Old Wei, your pig is so wild, it's almost as wild as a wild boar." The man who caught the pig laughed and teased.
Uncle Wei was also puzzled: "This pig is raised like this every year, but this year is the first time it's so lively."
"Butcher Liu was not here, so I couldn't calm it down."
While joking, he didn't forget the main business, but this pig was really hard to catch.
Several times, one of them caught and held it down, but before the others came around, the pig broke free.
"Brother, brother..." The pig rushed straight towards Wei Yu and Wei Shuang in the corner. Wei Shuang was immediately frightened and hugged Wei Yu and cried.
Wei Yu was strangled and felt uncomfortable. He was also frightened when he saw the pig rushing towards him.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way--" Uncle Wei was also frightened. He was afraid that the two would get hurt and his voice became hoarse.
"Second sister, help me." Wei Yu vaguely saw Wei Jingshu walking in from the gate of the courtyard. He suddenly felt more confident and begged for mercy while pulling Wei Shuang's hand.
At the critical moment, Wei Jingshu jumped over and kicked the pig weighing more than 100 pounds away. Then she looked at the two nervously. After checking them carefully, she frowned and punished them after making sure they were fine.
She tapped Wei Yu's nose: "You should be calm in the face of things. If you just stood there like you did, I would not have time
. What should I do?" Wei Yu was a little afraid to teach her sister a lesson, and she also knew that Wei Jingshu was more lenient with Wei Shuang, so she immediately pushed Wei Shuang out: "It was my sister who strangled me, and I couldn't move."
Wei Shuang was also afraid that Wei Jingshu would teach her a lesson, so she threw herself into Wei Jingshu's arms and buried her head deeply, her shoulders shaking, so pitiful.
"Second sister, I'm scared!"
Wei Jingshu's tone softened all of a sudden: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."
"Sister Shu, are Xiaoyu and Xiaoshuang okay?" Uncle Wei came up to show concern.
"It's okay." Wei Jingshu waved her hand, "They were just scared, just take a rest."
"Sister, my brother and I will go to the side." The little girl said in a muffled voice, but she didn't let Wei Jingshu see her face.
