Chapter 54: Huixin Returns to Her Mother's Home

Xue and the others sat in the ox cart and didn't dare to walk too fast. They walked for about an hour before they arrived at the venue. Xue helped Huixin get out of the car, Zhu helped to get the bag, and then several people walked into the venue.

Chen's sons and daughters-in-laws have left, but now he feels relieved when he sees his daughters-in. "Hurry, go into the house, Huixin, how are you doing now?" the old lady asked, holding her daughter's hand.

Huixin has been married for four months. She has never left her mother since she was a child. She has not seen her mother for four months. In addition, she suffered grievances in the Tao family, and tears suddenly came out. She lay in her mother's arms and started crying.

When Chen saw his daughter like this, he knew that her daughter was afraid of being wronged, so he couldn't help but sigh. "Come on, let's talk about it first. This place is not as good as the original home. I didn't want you to come here, but my mother really missed you." Chen pulled the daughter's hand and walked into the room.

Huixin wiped her tears and followed her mother into the house, looking around at the house. These five houses are smaller than those at home, and they are still wood-cut houses. I think winter will not be too warm. I feel sad for my parents. At such an old age, I still have to suffer such a crime. Xue and Zhu followed them into the house, Zhixin and Zhiming went to the venue, and Wenhan naturally went with him.

The ladies sat on the kang, and Chen asked how Huixin was in the Tao family. Huixin didn't say anything, and kept crying. Here Xue and Zhu talked about what they saw and heard in the Tao family. "Mom, that old woman in the Tao family is really hateful. Seeing Huixin's kindness, she just squeezed Huixin like this."

Chen sighed, "I have guessed this a long time ago. She didn't like Huixin at first, so naturally she couldn't treat Huixin well. But she didn't expect Huixin to be pregnant now, so they wouldn't calm down. Forget it, let's live at home for a while, and just look at Qingnian's attitude. He said he wanted to separate the family. Although this was not a big deal, it was not easy for them to bully Huixin like this. If Qingnian didn't come to pick her up, we wouldn't go back. My mother happened to be close to her daughter for a few more days."

Zhu went out and brought some things back, which was what he was going to give to the Tao family. He was a little angry at the Tao family just now, so he didn't take the things out, and now he took them all back. "Mom, it's almost noon, I'll go pack the fish and rabbits. At noon today, let's make some food to replenish Huixin."

Chen nodded after seeing this, "Leave more fish for Huixin, and that rabbit is not allowed to be eaten by Huixin. Women should not eat rabbits when they are pregnant. Be careful that they have a three-petal mouth when they give birth to a child." There is a saying in this old rule that pregnant women have many things that cannot be eaten. For example, dog meat, children like to bite people after eating, rabbits, children will have three-petal mouths, ducks, and children will have no distinction between hands and feet after eating. Although these are not scientific, people still believe in these and firmly implement them.

Zhu nodded, "If I don't say it, I'll forget it. So, I'll pickle one of the rabbits, don't stew them all. Stew them all, let Huixin eat them well." As he said that, Zhu went out. When Xue saw it, he followed them out. "Mom, it's time to cook, I'll go and help."

Jinghan and the others were not in the house, but ran to the forest again. Few people came to this forest, so there were a lot of medicinal materials. They had to go into the mountains to collect herbs every day. "Second brother, it's almost noon, so let's do it today."

Wencheng looked at the medicinal materials in the basket, "Okay, that's it, go home. The eldest brother is about to come back, I think my aunt can come back with me. We haven't seen my aunt any more." As he said that, Wencheng carried the basket on his back and led Jinghan, Jingwan, Jingxian, Wenxuan and Wenchang to the house.

While walking, a pheasant suddenly came out of the grass and passed by them. "Phizines." Wencheng took out a slingshot from his pocket, and shot the pheasant in the direction where the pheasant fell. The slingshot was made of animal tendons. The specially treated animal tendons were very elastic, so they shot quite far.

Jinghan also took out his slingshot and shot three bullets at the place where the pheasant fell. The three-bead shooting method was Zhixin's unique skill. Unexpectedly, the best one he learned was Jinghan.

There was a pheasant's painful movement in the grass. Wencheng and his team quickly ran into the grass. But they saw the pheasant lying on the ground, with legs still kicking, and blood flowing out of their heads. Wencheng picked up the pheasant and said, "It's great, there's something delicious right now."

Jinghan looked at the pheasant and sighed in his heart about the benefits of living on the mountain. In the northeast, there is a saying that it is called "beating a roe deer and scooping fish to a ladle", and the pheasant flies into the rice pot. This means that in the past, the Northeast, now living in the mountains, I really experienced this feeling. Pheasant is very common. Zhixin sometimes puts a few condoms, and almost all can be put on the pheasant. This pheasant has a habit called "Hengcao". However, on the way the pheasant walks, as long as there is a wooden stick across there, it will have to walk around. So as long as you find out where pheasants often appear, put two sticks horizontally, leave a mouth between the two sticks, and then tie a condom, and usually you can get the pheasant. However, like today, they beat the pheasant by themselves, but for the first time, everyone is very excited.

He continued walking home with the pheasant. Soon after, he arrived at the gate of the venue. When he entered the door, he saw Chen, Huixin and Jingya chatting. "Grandma, look at us who beat a pheasant, just for the little aunt to nourish her body." Wencheng carried the pheasant and asked Chen to see.

When Chen saw that the pheasant was not small, it was about three or four pounds heavy. "You are really capable. Okay, I've already stewed rabbits this noon, so I'll keep this chicken for the evening. We are in the mountains and there is nothing else, so I have to get some wild game to entertain your aunt." Chen said with a smile.

Huixin was no longer sad at this time. She was also very happy when she looked at the nephews and nieces in front of her. "Jinghan, Jingwan, Jingxian, come here quickly and let my aunt see you. Why have they all turned black? Are you running up the mountain all day long? Jinghan, don't let Jingwan and Jingxian take the wild, they both become like tomboys." Huixin joked.

Jingwan sat next to her aunt. Her temperament was stronger than Jingya, but she was not as wild as Jinghan, between the two. "My aunt, I have nothing to do, otherwise I will be too bored to be idle. We are still young, so naturally we can't sit still like my elder sister. When winter is free, we will be able to keep it in vain."

Jingxian is different. She also came to Huixin's side, "Auntie, my second sister said that girls should be more powerful so that they will not be bullied in the future. I think my second sister is so good. Today, my second sister can shoot slingshots and can actually shoot three times in a row. It's great."

After hearing Jingxian's words, Huixin couldn't help but nodded when she thought of herself, "That's right, girls should be more aggressive, but your second sister is a little too much. Jingxian, can't you just follow your second sister, do you hear it?"

Jinghan listened on the side and wanted to roll her eyes helplessly. Her temperament was like this. In addition, when she came to the mountain, there were so many good things that attracted her. How could she not be wild? Every day she felt that if she didn't let herself get something into the mountain, she would feel uncomfortable all over. She just likes to pull things at home, and there is nothing she can do.

Chen hurriedly hugged Jinghan over and said with a smile, "Don't talk about us Jinghan. If it weren't for Jinghan, our family wouldn't know where to squat. Where can we eat and live, and eat these wild game like now?" This is true. If Jinghan hadn't come up with an idea to visit, they would just rent a house and save money in the family, right? How could they think about it now? Just selling fish alone has an income of 300 yuan, and there are prey from time to time, and they can sell a lot of silver. Waiting for autumn, we can still get thirty taels of silver. Now it seems that these thirty taels are left over, and this year, we can earn forty or fifty taels. If we add a stick, we can buy a house and land in a few years.

"Grandma, let's not talk about these things in the future. It's just an idea I came up with suddenly. When I come up the mountain, my father and uncle must be accepted by them. My brothers are capable, so that I can live a stable life. I have nothing to do." Jinghan did not take credit. She is a little girl, even if she is capable, it would be useless if her father and brother are incompetent.

Chen was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled, "Okay, let's not talk. In any case, our family has a few good children, and they are willing to endure hardships. Grandma has you grandchildren, so she is content."

At this time, Zhixin and the others came back from outside. Zhiming was carrying a stick on his shoulder, and a snake was actually plated on it. Chen saw it and said, "Didn't you say that these things are not easy to hurt. Let it go."

"Mom, I don't want to hurt it. It's because it has been chasing me. I'm looking for death, so I can't blame us." Just now, the two brothers were walking around, and the snake came out of the grass and followed Zhiming, tilting his head and vomiting. If he wanted to bite people, Zhiming and Zhixin could not let it go and beat it directly. If the children met it, or if someone who came to work in the venue accidentally met it, they would probably be bitten.

Jinghan saw that the snake was not small, and then remembered the pheasant they beat, and happened to think of a good dish. "Grandma, let's use this snake and pheasant to stew the soup tonight, Dragon and Phoenix Soup, it's a big nourishing solution. Let my aunt drink more and nourish the body best."

"You have many ideas, so why are you the Dragon and Phoenix Soup? Okay, let's try it too. What does this Dragon and Phoenix Soup taste like?" Chen agreed. Anyway, he would eat it anyway, so it would be better to eat it a different way.
