Cannon fodder also wants to live (through the book)

64 Chapter 64 Homecoming

The more Wu said, the more contemptuous she became, and she became a little emotional. The child in her arms started to cry at this moment. She got up and hugged him in circles to coax him.

She also said to Zhang Caixuan: "My aunt must be very busy when I go back. The house needs to be repaired, the field has not been cleaned up, and there is no money to repair the house, and there is no food at home..."

She clicked her tongue, shook her head and said, "Anyway, let me live this kind of life, I can't live it anymore, why don't I let it go."

Zhang Caixuan was silent, she was quite contemptuous of the abandoned woman at the moment, not to mention the neighbors on the road, even the children would make up songs and sing them, all in all, life was sad.

Mrs. Wu watched Zhang Quanyun live for a few months. Although there was a joke, these words are enough to show that Zhang Quanyun's life is difficult, even more difficult than that of the abandoned woman.

But at this moment, Zhang Daoyuan's voice sounded outside, "Third Aunt, Mom asked me to come and find you."

Wu raised her voice to answer, and walked to the door with the child in her arms, "Daoyuan, what's the matter?"

Zhang Daoyuan looked at Zhang Caixuan, "I don't know, just now the second aunt and grandma had a quarrel, and then said...the separation, the mother quietly asked me to come to you, and the second brother went to call the village uncle."

Wu's expression brightened, which means that He and Li had a quarrel and invited the village head. Based on her understanding of Zhang Quanfu, it is very likely that they will split up immediately.

Turning back to Zhang Caixuan, she raised her voice: "Caixuan, I'm back, I'll come to you again when I'm free."

After speaking, he walked quickly with the child in his arms.

Zhang Caixuan continued to cut the grass. If she wanted to feed the horses, she had to prepare enough forage. Otherwise, it would be cold and snowy, even if she was not afraid of the cold, she would go out to cut the grass.

After Mrs. Wu left, she didn't get up to close the door, mainly because there was usually no one here, and she would spend the whole afternoon cutting grass in the yard to dry.

When Hu Niuniang's voice sounded, the knife in her hand almost cut her finger.

"Caixuan, hurry up..."

It was mainly because of Hu Niuniang's loud voice, afraid that she would not be able to hear her, so she started barking from afar.

Zhang Caixuan put down the knife helplessly, turned to look at the door, Hu Niuniang came in a few steps, and reached out to grab her, "Caixuan, hurry up, something happened to your uncle's house."

Just now Zhang Daoyuan said that she already knew that Mrs. He and Mrs. Li had quarreled.

Hu Niuniang didn't grab her hand, she stomped her foot and said anxiously: "Your uncle didn't know what he was thinking, but he actually said that he wants to separate the family. Those old people have invited them over, it seems to be true."

When there are family splits in the village, the village head and famous elders are usually invited to come forward, and the elders should not be too biased.

Separation is a rare thing in the village.Especially since Zhang Quanfu is still young and alive, it is even more surprising.

In the past, several sons would have their spines poked. Generally, separation meant that the elders passed away, and the younger generation wanted to divide the family, which meant cursing the elders to die quickly.

Hu Niuniang was so anxious that she looked at her with hatred.Zhang Caixuan said helplessly, "I already knew that the third sister-in-law was with me earlier."

Hu Niuniang was taken aback, "You know?"

"Then take a look! By the way, I would like to advise your uncle, how can we separate the family now, if you are not good to your elder brothers, everyone will say that they are not filial."

Zhang Caixuan had no choice but to say, "Auntie, you think too highly of me. No one will listen to me when they split up. Besides, splitting up is not a one-time idea. How could it be a few words from an unfamiliar married woman like me?" Can you persuade me to come back?"

Hu Niuniang made sense after thinking about it, and nodded involuntarily.

"And I just came back from the Zhang family, and just now uncle has paid off the money he owed me."

Hu Niuniang sighed, "Separation...the parents are here, so there is no separation!"

As far as Zhang Caixuan is concerned, it is good to separate the family, and she will not be lazy in work after separation.Even for the little things in the kitchen, Wu Shi and He Shi usually put in so much effort just to do less.

Sighing for a while, but Zhang Caixuan didn't move, Hu Niuniang said again: "Caixuan, then you can watch the fun with me, and let's see who your father's land was allocated to."

Zhang Caixuan sighed, Hu Niuniang was confused, and said: "Auntie, I am a married woman, we should avoid suspicion about such things."

Besides, her father's house and land were sold, so what else to look at?It doesn't matter to her to give it to anyone.

After hearing this, Hu Niuniang slapped her forehead, "Oh, look at my brain, Caixuan, don't be annoyed, I really didn't think of it."

Zhang Caixuan smiled, "I haven't thanked my aunt for coming to tell me this, how can I blame you?"

After hearing this, Hu Niu Niang was quite comforted, she turned and went out, and said: "Then let me take a look, your eldest aunt likes everyone the most, and Daoyuan is also the favorite among her grandchildren..."

This is purely for fun.

Qin Surin came in with the grass in his arms, just in time to see Hu Niuniang leaving, and asked, "Caixuan, is there something wrong in the village?"

There must be something wrong with Hu Niu Niang, Qin Surin is used to it.

Zhang Caixuan got up and beat her waist, "Uncle is going to separate the family. Oh, by the way, uncle just returned the money to us."

It is useless to persuade the Zhang family to separate. In the end, the family was divided, and it was completely divided.The vegetable plot in the yard is divided into six parts, and even the pots and pans are divided.

The land in the family is also divided into six shares, one for each of the five sons. The fourth and fifth children are still unmarried, and they still share a house with Zhang Quanfu.

As for those who have become a family, the harvest of their own land will be their own in the future, and they will harvest it by themselves in autumn.Of course, from now on, you have to take care of yourself.

The money and food were also distributed. Outsiders don't know how much, but it's not much anyway.

In other words, there is still half of the land in Zhang Quanfu's hands. When the fourth and fifth children get married in the future, they will take out their own share, and they will only keep their own share.

In fact, this is not good for the marriage of the fourth and fifth children, and no one wants to find a son-in-law who does not have the help of a mother-in-law.

But some people did not follow common sense. On the third day after the separation, someone came to propose marriage to the fourth child Zhang Jinxi.

The proposer was the Liu family from Luoshui Village.

In Luoshui Village, the surname Liu is the most, and it seems to be related to Zhang's family in Qingshan Village.Speaking of which, the Liu family is still the same as Zhang Caixuan's maternal ancestor's family.

The girl who proposes marriage is the eldest in the family. She is fifteen this year and has younger siblings.Luoshui Village was hit by disasters last year, and the family went to live with the girl's grandfather's house, but it seemed that the trouble was not pleasant, and they moved back this year as soon as the weather got warmer.

To put it bluntly, this marriage is to find a way out in the future.This year's weather is unusual, and it's hard to say whether there will be a harvest in the fields. It's unknown whether Luoshui Village will flood this winter.

What people value is that when the fourth child gets married, the family will be separated, and the mother-in-law will not interfere with the life of the young couple.

That is to say, if someone is really affected by a disaster and brings their family with them, Li Shi and Zhang Quanfu on the Zhang family's side cannot gossip.

This means that Matchmaker Li made it clear when she came to propose marriage.

In the end, Mrs. Li asked the fourth child's opinion, and gritted her teeth and agreed.

When Zhang Caixuan found out, the betrothal gift had already been delivered.

She didn't care so much, she heard it and let it go, she and Qin Surin planned to go to the town to buy two piglets and raise them by themselves.

The weather is fine now, and there is a lot of grass outside, so just cutting a handful is enough to feed pigs, and by the time of the Chinese New Year, it will be about one or two hundred catties, just enough to kill.

There are more people in the town, despite the difficult winter last year, there are quite a few people selling seeds now.

After walking around from beginning to end, Zhang Caixuan was a little unwilling, "How come there is not a single piglet?"

Qin Surin looked around, "Don't let the sows not feed well last year, let's kill them all!"

She still doesn't give up, although she is not greedy for meat, it is because she usually eats it often.

"Let's look for it again."

After turning around a few times but not finding it, Qin Surin dragged him to a pork stall, bought two catties of meat, and bought bones before asking, "Uncle, where are there still piglets for sale now?"

Zhang Caixuan's eyes lit up. Others don't know, but the butcher often accepts pigs to know.

,all in

The butcher laughed, "I don't know about other places, but Luoshui Village has them."

The two looked at each other, both a little surprised, Qin Sulin said: "It's not that Luoshui Village was flooded, why are there still piglets?"

The butcher laughed, "Young man, Luoshui Village is so big, and the water flows downhill, there is always a place that cannot be flooded!"

Neither Zhang Caixuan nor Qin Sulin has been to Luoshui Village, and they don't plan to go unless necessary.After thinking about it, Zhang Caixuan said: "Uncle, can you buy it for us? We will pay you some travel expenses."

The butcher was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed again, "But no one has ever asked me to buy piglets. I can help you, but now there are few piglets, and the price is not cheap. A head costs two taels of silver."

It is indeed expensive.

I still remember that when Zhang Caixuan bought land, the wasteland was only two or two acres.Only one piglet can be bought now.

The butcher came to do business again, and said casually: "If you want it, come to the next market to get it."

If you want it for sure, piglets are expensive now, and pork will be expensive in the future.

Nowadays, the food in the town is still in short supply, and it has not been warmed up by the warmer weather. It is still 50 people a day, five catties per person.Therefore, even if the grain store is open during the day, it still sells some salt and sugar, and the price is no longer the original price. Generally, the price has increased by three to five times, and some items have even increased by ten times.

Now there is no need to chop firewood, Zhang Caixuan is busy drying the grass, and went up the mountain twice to pick the bamboo shoots and pickle them.

When Tan Gui's carriage arrived at the door, Zhang Caixuan almost forgot about this person.

After seeing it, I remembered that this person still owed them 1000 taels of silver.

Tan Gui brought two followers, and when he entered the door, he saw half-dried chopped grass all over the ground, and Zhang Caixuan was still happily cutting under the eaves.

Tan Gui was no longer the embarrassed one he was before. He was dressed in a moon white gown, holding a folding fan in his hand, with a gentle smile on his lips, and a bit of a naughty demeanor in his personable demeanor.He walked in with two attendants, "Ma'am, I'm here to pay back the money."

The sun was dazzling, Zhang Caixuan squinted her eyes to see that it was him, and said, "Mr. Tan, I thought you were busy with business and forgot."

He raised his hand with a smile, bowed slightly and saluted, "How come? The grace of saving life is unforgettable."

It was true that Zhang Caixuan and the two saved him, but the grace of saving his life was over. Even if they didn't show up that day, Tan Gui would not have died.

Besides, Yang Xuan'er was looking for him everywhere.

With her wandering all over the mountains, it was only a matter of time before she found him.

Zhang Caixuan didn't say much, took off the apron on her knees, stood up and said, "Mr. Tan speaks seriously."

After speaking, he entered the room, quickly took out the original jade pendant, handed it over and said, "Mr. Tan."

Zhang Caixuan had seen it a long time ago, and the two attendants in the back lifted a box from the carriage, which should be the 1000 taels of silver.

Tan Gui took it in his hand and squinted at it, saw Zhang Caixuan's cold eyes, and said with a smile: "Madam may not know, but this is the betrothal gift of my future wife of the Tan family, and I will definitely get it back."

Zhang Caixuan was noncommittal, nodded casually, her eyes fell on the box.

The meaning is obvious, silver.
