Chapter 64
For dinner, Su He not only made sweet and sour spareribs, but also steamed egg custard for the two children.
These two dishes are the favorites of the two kids, and Zizi and Niuniu eat them with gusto.
After dinner, before it got completely dark, Su He took the two children for a walk towards the Fu family in the village.
She was going to ask her sisters-in-law when they would be free to help her plant the newly exchanged durian tree.
Now everyone has just finished dinner or is about to have dinner, so people who have been working outside have returned one after another.
When they saw Su He’s mother, many people in the village greeted her.
The main reason was that the scene of Su He’s battle with the Wang family last time was still vivid in people’s minds, which completely changed Su He’s reputation in the village.
There were already many people in the village who were dissatisfied with the Wang family. After Su He taught the Wang family a lesson, he also showed magnanimity, which made the villagers feel that Su He was a man of affection and righteousness, and he did things in moderation and at the right time.
“Wife Tinghua, where are you going?”
“I’m going to my mother-in-law’s house.”
“Wife Tinghua, the two kids seem to be getting taller and taller.”
“Wife Tinghua, please come to my house when you have time.”
“Sister Su, hey, have you eaten?”
“Have you eaten?”
Faced with the sudden enthusiasm of the villagers, Su He’s face was almost frozen with smile.
So she quickened her pace and hurried to the Fu family.
The Fu family had just finished their meal. Because it was too hot inside the house, Fu Dajun, Wu Yanhua, their sons, daughters-in-law, grandchildren and granddaughters were sitting at the door to get some fresh air.
Su He’s home is at the foot of the mountain, so it is warm in winter and cool in summer, and it is not as hot as the center of the village.
“Su He, have you eaten?”
As soon as he saw his daughter-in-law, Fu Dajun immediately smiled.
“I’ve eaten, Dad.” Su He said with a smile, and then greeted Wu Yanhua and his brothers and sisters-in-law.
“Grandpa, grandma.” Zizi and Niuniu called Fu Dajun and Wu Yanhua shyly.
They are no longer as shy as before and even take the initiative to say hello to their grandparents.
“Hey, my dear grandson.” Fu Dajun grinned.
He now owes the most to Su He’s mother and daughter, so he never shows a cold face in front of Su He.
“I’m here to see my sisters-in-law. I want to ask when you are free.” Su He asked several female members of the Fu family with a smile.
“Huh? Did you buy the durian tree seedlings?” He Fangfang asked.
Last time, Su He told them that when he had money, he would plant the entire slope with durian saplings.
“Yes. So I have to trouble my sister-in-law again.” Su He said with a smile.
“It’s no trouble, no trouble. We are almost done with our work here. When will your saplings arrive?” Zhang Xiaohua asked.
“We’re already here. It just depends on when you are free.”
“Then let’s do it tomorrow.” Chen Sufen set the time right away, which was exactly what Su He wanted.
It takes time for a durian tree to bear fruit, so of course the earlier you plant it, the better.
Whether it is the sons or daughters-in-law, the Fu family members are all hardworking and never sit idle.
So even though the family is no longer busy, the daughters-in-law still have to run to the fields all day long and have no rest for a single day.
So when Su He said that they had work to do, the wives immediately scheduled it for tomorrow.
Seeing that things were going so smoothly, Su He couldn’t help but smile and nodded.
Zizi and Niuniu were dragged by Zhuangzhuang and his friends to the small square in the village to play hide-and-seek.
The sky is a bit gray now, and playing this game is a must-do activity for children after dinner.
Su He sat with a few sisters-in-law at the door of the Fu family’s house and chatted.
“My mom told me that you went to the town to do business?” Chen Sufen had a very cheerful personality and asked whatever she wanted to ask directly.
“Yes, I have nothing to do now, so I just fiddled with the fried cakes I fried last time and took them out to sell during the market day in town.” Su He replied with a smile.
“I ate that last time and it was really delicious.” Zhang Xiaohua recalled the taste of the fried cake just thinking about it.
I don’t know how her sister-in-law fried the sweet potatoes so deliciously.
Most of the flour in this era is ground by hand using a stone mill, so the flour produced is not that fine.
Su He’s flour is exchanged in the space, and the flour is fine and refreshing.
Plus, Su He added salt and oil to the flour, so it’s hard to imagine it not tasting good.
“I like to eat it too, so I thought about selling it outside.” Su He said with a smile.
“Su He has lived in the city since he was a child, so he is smarter than us. People like us have little knowledge and only know how to do hard labor.”
He Fangfang was extremely envious of Su He’s quick mind. She had always been a very dull person and didn’t know how to talk much.
The last time she saw Su He helping the two kids to get justice so logically and logically, she wished she could be so obedient with her words.
“Don’t worry, sisters-in-law. Just plant the durian trees. I will take care of how to sell them.” Su He comforted the sisters-in-law.
To be honest, Su He really admires the women of this era.
Doing farm work is really tiring. Even Su He, who once lived in the countryside, feels that he can’t do it.
Fortunately, she separated from the Fu family, otherwise she would really not be willing to do farm work if asked to do it.
If I can lead the Fu family to prosperity, they will suffer less in the future.
But now, Su He himself has nothing and the house he lives in is still a dilapidated mud house.
But Su He believed and firmly believed that with his identity as a future man and a person who traveled through a book, he would definitely become rich in the future.
“Are you going to sell the things by yourself? Is that okay?” He Fangfang asked worriedly.
She thought Su He was still pushing a cart carrying a bunch of fruits to sell in town or city.
These women have never left Shangyao Village in their lives, and they don’t know how Su He is going to sell his things.
Su He smiled and replied, “Don’t worry, sister-in-law, I can do it on my own.”
She didn’t explain much to the Fu family, mainly because nothing had been accomplished yet and she didn’t know how to explain.
Several sisters-in-law chatted with Su He for a while and became more fond of him.
The main reason is that Su He is eloquent, and when she wants to please someone, that person won’t feel uncomfortable.
“My son Zhuangzhuang is such a naughty boy, he acts like a little bully all day long. But when I came back tonight, he kept telling me that he likes you.”
Zhang Xiaohua is helpless with her son. He is lively by nature and is the king of children in the family, so he is very much liked by Wu Yanhua.
Sometimes Wu Yanhua couldn’t control this naughty boy, but he was always obedient in front of Su He.
“They are just kids, and they like to play together. Maybe it’s because they can play no matter how noisy they are at my house, and the adults won’t say anything, so they like to stay there.”
Several sisters-in-law were chatting enthusiastically here, and the atmosphere was very good for a while.
