Chapter 3 The Sow Runs Away
At this time, it was already dawn in the mountain village.
Jiang Donghua was making breakfast downstairs. The fire in the stove was growing, the firewood was burning and the steam was rising from the pot, and the aroma of rice scented throughout the house.
Generally, Xiao Dafu will get up only when Jiang Donghua prepares breakfast.
Because he had to work in the fields, Xiao Dafu had to eat dry meals three times a day.
Waking up by Xiao Youran's shouts, Xiao Dafu was a little dissatisfied.
Hearing her husband's complaints, Jiang Donghua, who was burning downstairs, was a little nervous because the rice was only ripe, but her husband woke up.
Xiao Youran was immersed in her discovery.
She put on her clothes randomly and rushed out of the room, colliding with Xiao Dafu at the entrance of the stairs.
The stairs were too narrow and the two almost fell down.
"Are you rushing to reincarnate?" He just taught his eldest daughter a lesson yesterday. At this moment, Xiao Dafu still looked unhappy when he saw Xiao Youran.
Xiao Youran only cares about reporting on her new discoveries and said as if she seeks credit: "Bad, the sow is running away!"
"What sow ran away?" Xiao Dafu's first reaction was that he raised his own pig in the back door pigpen.
He shouted downstairs: "Donghua, go to the pigpen to see it, and Youran said that the sow ran away."
Jiang Donghua knew what the "sow" in her daughter's mouth meant, and she pretended to be deaf and dumb when she called out to her husband.
"Winter flowers, winter flowers, you are dead! Can't you hear what I call you?" Xiao Dafu started cursing at the top of his throat.
Xiao Youran is very forgetful. She was beaten last night and forgot about it early in the morning.
In front of her father, she has always been accustomed to being erratic and fond of her father, but she does not feel any danger of her anger.
She took Xiao Dafu's hand and said, "Babe, I'm not talking about the sow, but Zhao Huanhuan!"
Xiao Dafu glared at her eyes and cursed: "Youran, I beat you last night in vain, right? That's your sister-in-law! Try calling you 'sow' again?"
Xiao Dafu raised his face.
Xiao Youran shrank her neck and said anxiously: "Bada, don't hit me, can't I call her sister-in-law? Sister-in-law ran away!"
The Xiao family is a two-story brick and wood house, with half of the downstairs being the kitchen and half of the canteen.
Upstairs is the room, Xiao Dafu and Jiang Donghua sleep in the room behind, and Xiao Shengli and the three brothers sleep in the room before they sleep.
Zhao Huanhuan came and slept in the front room, squeezing a bed with Xiao Youran and Xiao Erni.
Xiao Dafu walked into the room in front and saw that Zhao Huanhuan was not there.
Not only Zhao Huanhuan, Xiao Shengli and Xiao Erni were not there either.
"Bad, look, I didn't lie to you. The sow... Sister-in-law, she really ran away. Dad, you spent 5,000 yuan to buy someone. She ran away for 5,000 yuan! Dad, let's go to Zhao's house to get the money back!"
"How do you know that your sister-in-law ran away?" Xiao Dafu looked at Xiao Youran suspiciously.
Xiao Youran is very sure about this.
Before going to bed last night, she heard Zhao Huanhuan and Xiao Erni muttering, not wanting to stay at Xiao's house, but wanting to go back to her own house.
"She said to Erni last night, and I heard it with my own ears. She would not stay at our house as a daughter-in-law at all. She looked down on my elder brother..."
Xiao Youran thought of making up a few more bad words about Zhao Huanhuan. When she was in a state of excitement, she heard Xiao Shengli's voice coming from downstairs: "Bad, mother, we are back!"
Xiao Youran immediately went downstairs: "Brother, your wife ran away, Zhao Huanhuan ran away..."
Xiao Youran was stunned. In addition to Xiao Erni, Zhao Huanhuan, who came back with Xiao Shengli.
The three of them had sweat stains on their faces and were filled with satisfied smiles after labor.
"Brother, second sister, you guys..." Xiao Youran's face thrust.
Xiao Dafu walked down the stairs and cursed when he passed by Xiao Youran: "How can you be so huh, it's so terrifying to sleep early in the morning."
Xiao Youran complained in her heart, walked downstairs with weak steps, and her butt, which was beaten by Xiao Dafu last night, seemed to hurt again.
"Where did you three go early in the morning?" Jiang Donghua stood up from the stove and walked over to see the children.
When his eyes passed Xiao Shengli's face, he felt full of tenderness and pampering, but when he fell on Zhao Huanhuan's face, he felt cold unconsciously.
"Ba Damn and Mother, let's go to the back mountain to water the watermelon." Xiao Shengli said while wiping his sweat.
"What water to water the watermelon early in the morning?" Jiang Donghua frowned.
Because several children went to work early in the morning, Xiao Dafu felt relieved and didn't blame him. He just said, "You have to water the watermelon. Just go in the evening. Water the watermelon early in the morning, beware that the watermelon vines will be frozen."
Xiao Erni immediately said, "I told my sister-in-law this way, but my sister-in-law said that watering the watermelon in the morning will make the watermelons big and sweet."
Xiao Erni said as she cast a admiring look at Zhao Huanhuan.
Because before going to bed last night, Zhao Huanhuan secretly stuffed oranges to her again.
It is not easy to eat oranges, not to mention that oranges are so sweet.
Xiao Erni secretly asked Zhao Huanhuan where the oranges came from. Zhao Huanhuan said that it doesn’t matter how the oranges came from, and it’s the most important thing that the oranges can be distributed to her.
Xiao Erni felt that Zhao Huanhuan was right. If there was anything delicious at home, she would always give it to her elder brother and sister first. Only when there was extra were it was her turn, her daughter.
No matter what identity Zhao Huanhuan is in Xiao’s family, whether it is a child bride or a sow he bought, if Zhao Huanhuan is nice to her, then she likes her.
"My sister-in-law is a girl. How can my dad be so good? My dad said that watermelons need to be watered in the evening, but you two heard your sister-in-law talk nonsense. If the watermelons are killed by you, let's see how my dad deal with you!"
When Xiao Youran said the word "sister-in-law", she was really reluctant.
She was beaten by her father last night. At this moment, she wished her father could beat Zhao Huanhuan too. Xiao Erni, a idiot, actually betrayed her elder sister. She got so close to the sow and wanted to be beaten by her father.
In Xiao Youran's heart, Xiao Shengli, the brother, is quite a bit of a place. As for her younger sister Xiao Erni, she doesn't like her.
"Babe, watering the watermelon can really grow bigger in the morning, and Erni and Shengli can testify."
Zhao Huanhuan was very well-behaved when talking to Xiao Dafu, and the smile on her face was just right.
Xiao Shengli and Xiao Erni immediately proved.
"Yes, dad, there is a watermelon that has already been produced and it has become bigger after we watered it." Xiao Erni is usually stupid, and her exaggerated expression is very funny at this moment.
Although Xiao Shengli is the son of the family and Xiao Dafu also prefers boys over girls, Xiao Dafu does not appreciate Xiao Shengli's son very much, and the father and son do not agree with each other.
I went to water the watermelon early in the morning, and the watermelon really got bigger. Xiao Shengli thought this was an excellent opportunity to please his father.
"Bad, it's true. Huanhuan and Erni didn't lie to you. If Dad doesn't believe me, I'll take Dad to the watermelon field to take a look now."
Xiao Shengli said that he was going to lead the way in front, but was stopped by Jiang Donghua.
"What are you going now? Your dad hasn't had breakfast yet!" Jiang Donghua was dissatisfied with her son being abducted by Zhao Huanhuan to water him.
Xiao Dafu also said, "When we finish our meal, we will go to the watermelon field to take a look."
After dinner, Xiao Dafu led his wife and children to the watermelon field, and indeed saw a huge watermelon.
The watermelon was as big as a winter melon, and it was lying in the watermelon field with a look of vigor.
"Babe, look, look, look—" Xiao Shengli pointed at the watermelon excitedly.
Xiao Dafu's face was surprised, but his voice was calm: "I saw it!"
"The water of this watermelon was watered successfully!" Zhao Huanhuan said.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Huanhuan actually pushed the credit to him, Xiao Shengli was very surprised.
"Erni watered this watermelon. Although it is not as big as Shengli's watermelon, it is much larger than ordinary watermelon."
According to Zhao Huanhuan's recommendation, Xiao Dafu also saw the second largest watermelon. Although it was not as big as the largest watermelon, it was much bigger than the average watermelon.
"Really, watering in the morning will make the watermelon so big! Shengli, Erni, you two are really capable."
After receiving Xiao Dafu's recognition, Xiao Shengli and Xiao Erni were very happy.
Xiao Youran, who was so jealous that she was crazy, stared at Zhao Huanhuan and said, "Why is the watermelon that Huanhuan and her elder brother and second sister watering are not as big as theirs? The sow is just a sow, and a fool is just a fool!"
Xiao Shengli was unhappy, "Big sister, didn't you tell you not to call Huanhuan sow again in the future?"
"Yes, sister, my dad said that he could not call his sister-in-law and sow anymore, he should call him sister-in-law." Xiao Erni also said.
Xiao Youran was angry: "Then you said that if she wasn't as stupid as a pig, why didn't the watermelon she watered couldn't grow?"
Xiao Dafu also found it strange and said, "Yes, Huanhuan, what is the reason?"
"Victory knows why."
Zhao Huanhuan once again gave Xiao Shengli the opportunity to perform.
Xiao Shengli was like chicken blood and explained to Zhao Huanhuan: "Because Huanhuan watered the entire piece of watermelon, and my second sister and I were only responsible for watering one of the watermelons. Of course, our watermelon is bigger than hers. Do you want to eat one steamed bun and fill one by one, or to feed ten people?"
"It's the reason why Shengli said." Zhao Huanhuan smiled sweetly at Xiao Shengli, but threw ten thousand daggers in his heart.
Xiao Dafu nodded in agreement after hearing Xiao Shengli's explanation.
Xiao Youran was unhappy: "Then why didn't Huanhuan water melon?"
"Sister, you don't want to come and water it together?" Xiao Erni pouted.
Xiao Youran was stunned: "When did you ask me to come and water it together?"
"I called it, my sister-in-law and I both called it, but sister, you have to sleep in and don't want to get up." Xiao Erni said.
"Big girl, I've gotten up, I didn't expect you to be lazy than me."
Although Xiao Shengli is a boy, she is often suppressed by Xiao Youran.
Jiang Donghua and Xiao Dafu sighed more than once that it would be great if Xiao Youran was her son, she was smarter than Xiao Shengli in all aspects.
Even brothers and sisters will be jealous, compete for favor, and wear each other's shoes.
Seeing that the eldest brother and second sister were both proving themselves, Xiao Youran was almost angry. Zhao Huanhuan said, "Youran, you want to water it. Don't sleep in tomorrow morning, let's join us."
Xiao Dafu immediately agreed with Zhao Huanhuan's proposal: "Yes, Youran, tomorrow morning, come with them to water the watermelon."
The next morning, it was dawn and Xiao Youran got up.
She didn't want to go with Zhao Huanhuan to water the watermelon! She wanted to invite a credit to her father alone.
