Chapter 9 Hui'an woman

Under Yang Dazhu's repeatedly reminded him, Liu firmly remembered all the things related to his sons' future imperial examinations. After that, Ding Yayu was really teased several times by the Yang family. Once he was thrown to the ground and gnawed cow shit. After that, Ding Yayu would take a far detour when he saw the Yang family and did not dare to If you hit Yang Qiniang again, the matter of selling women is completely over.

But the weather has still not improved. The brown rice obtained from the vegetables grown in the Yang family's field has been eaten for a long time. Recently, Liu has been shamelessly credited by the richer people in the village. In the end, even the brown rice is so that no one wants to be credited, and the family can only eat wild vegetables. In an old snack for several days, all the wild vegetables were so thin that Liu had to brazenly go back to the village to find a kind-hearted family and wanted to borrow some rice from them for emergency treatment.

Liu's family thought about it and finally went to Wang Hai's family, which was easy to talk to in the village. In addition to fishing and farming, the Wang family also opened a shop in the city to do small business. Therefore, even if they could not go out to sea to fish, the daily livelihood of the Wang family was not greatly affected. The family could still eat and wear as usual, and Liu's also Because of this, the Wang family will come to borrow rice.

Liu walked to the door of Wang's house with Yang Momo on his back. Liu, Wang Dahai's daughter-in-law, greeted him and greeted him enthusiastically, "Dazhu's daughter-in-law is here. Don't be fooled outside the door. Come into the room and sit down!"

Liu said as he pulled Liu into the room and pressed him on the bench, and then told his son, "Erlang, pour a cup of tea for you Aunt Yang to drink, and then grab the golden melon seeds and let us bang their teeth while eating."

Hearing this, Wang Erlang quickly picked up the teapot and poured tea into the round teacup. After serving the tea, he politely greeted Liu, and then went to the inner room to grab a large handful of golden melon seeds. When the golden melon seeds were placed on the table by Wang Erlang, Yang Momo saw that the so-called "golden melon seeds" were not sunflower seeds that she often ate in later generations, but dried pumpkin seeds. People who wanted to come here called pumpkins called golden melons.

Seeing that his son was so sensible, Liu touched his head with a doting face and gave him a small reward with a smile: "Erlang is really sensible. I haven't forgotten the manners and rules taught you by my mother. Since Erlang is so clever and sensible, my mother allows you to grab another handful of golden melon seeds in the room and go out by yourself. Find a place to relieve your buns."

Wang Erlang was just an eight- or nine-year-old child. As soon as he heard this, his eyes burst out with coveted eyes. Then he immediately ran into the room. Soon, he put the golden melon seeds in his pocket and ran out of the inner room. He told Liu that he wanted to go out to play, and quickly ran to the hospital door. I plan to go out and show off with my friends.

Liu sent Wang Erlang out of the house with loving eyes. It was not until his figure completely ran away that he reluctantly took his eyes back and said to Liu with some embarrassment, "This child has loved to eat golden melon seeds since he was a child. I'm afraid that he would get angry if he ate too much, so he would never let him eat more. Unconsciously That's how greedy he is, which makes Dazhu's daughter-in-law laugh.

It's common for children to be greedy. Naturally, Liu will not laugh at half-year-old children, so he followed Liu's words and said, "Children are greedy, and those kids in my family are all like this. What's so funny?"

When Liu saw that Liu mentioned several of his children, he remembered that Dingya wanted to sell Yang Qiniang some time ago, and immediately patted the table indignantly to hug Liu: "Dazhu's daughter-in-law, when you said this, I remembered what happened to your seven mother not long ago. If you want me to say that you should push that little tooth into the water and let her eat a few mouthfuls of seawater to learn a lesson and remember!"

Liu patted Yang Momo on the back and said with a smile, "Those naughty kids in my family have played tricks on Dingya several times. I think she has learned to be good now. If she dares to hit my daughter next time, I will definitely tear her mouth rudely!"

Liu is also a well-known and loving son, and he is as protective as Liu, so as soon as he heard this, he immediately patted the table and echoed, "Dazhu daughter-in-law, you should do this!" Otherwise, Dingya will think that we mothers are easy to bully!"

"If this matter is left on me, I will definitely beat that tooth on the spot. Only she feels that other people's children are grass and can be sold for a few pieces of money! My two sons, even if they give me a few Jinshan and Yinshan, I will definitely not sell them!"

Liu knew that the two sons of the Wang family and Liu had always loved them in their hands, and also knew that Liu's words were sincere and did not deliberately pretend to share the same hatred with him, so he unconsciously got closer to Liu. It seemed that the two mothers became confidants because of this incident. .

Liu and Liu Shi felt more and more related because of the incident. In addition, Liu saw that Liu's family could still bring golden melon seeds to entertain guests. They thought it was very good to come to the house, so they brazenly explained to Liu: "Sister-in-law Wang, to tell you the truth, I came to you this time to borrow some more rice for emergency... ”

Liu's words were awkward because of shame, but Liu's response was very cheerful: "Ok, our family still has some brown rice. I can lend you some more."

Liu's generosity made Liu and Yang Momo breathe a sigh of relief together, and Yang Momo also had a good impression on Liu's family. She subconsciously opened her mouth and smiled sweetly at Liu Shi, thanking Liu's generosity with a smile.

As soon as Liu Shi saw Yang Momo smile, she immediately reached out happily to take Yang Momo from Liu's hand, held her in her arms and teased her, and said to Liu with envy, "Daizhu daughter-in-law, you are really lucky. You have sons and daughters under your knees, but you make me so envious!"

"Your eldest son and Erlang, if you ask for your daughter-in-law back in the future, don't you also have a daughter?"

"Well, I'm upset when it comes to asking my son for a daughter-in-law, and I don't know if I can find my favorite daughter-in-law and the children who grew up in other people's families in the future. How can I know whether they are sincere or not? I don't know if they will treat my baby son harshly in the future..."

Liu frowned as soon as he talked about the marriage of his two sons, and teased Yang Momo. Liu sighed with empathy: "Our mother's troubles are all the same thing. In addition to worrying about the marriage of the four children, I also have to worry about whether the two daughters will get married in the future. After marriage I won't suffer at my mother-in-law's house. I have to worry more than sister-in-law Wang..."

Liu's words stunned Liu's whole body, and a bold idea suddenly flashed in her mind. Liu secretly thought about this idea, and immediately felt happy and thought that the idea he suddenly came up with was feasible!

After turning around a few times, Liu immediately took Liu's hand affectionately and asked with a smile, "Dzhu's daughter-in-law, have your Qi Niang and Ba Niang been married to the same family?"

Liu shook his head and said, "We locals in Hui'an are not interested in ordering dolls."

Liu's words brightened Yang Momo's eyes and made her heart inexplicably excited--it turned out that he had traveled to the area of Hui'an in southern Fujian. Yang Momo may not know about other places in southern Fujian, but Yang Momo of Hui'an County, who has a hard-working "Hui'an girl" heard a little about it!

That is to say, Yang Momo traveled through time to become the legendary hard-working and brave Hui'an girl?

As soon as the three words "Hui'an Girl" appeared in Yang Momo's mind, Yang Momo realized that she had opened her childhood memory that had been sealed for a long time, and slowly found that Liu's clothes were very familiar -- Liu's today's son wore a yellow bucket hat, a hooded head scarf, a blue shirt, black silk trousers and a silver belt. , this is the costume of the famous Hui'an woman with great national characteristics!

In the period after crossing, Yang Momo saw a lot of women dressed like this, but she didn't connect them with Hui'an women, so she never knew the specific place she traveled to...

In the coastal city where Yang Momo lived in his previous life, walking in the streets and alleys of the small city, you can often see some women with strange costumes. They all wear bamboo hats and cover their faces tightly with floral cloth, revealing only two eyes outside. Most of their clothes are blue long-sleeved short coats, so short that even their bellies are exposed, which is larger than the modern popular navel clothing, but the bottoms of their trousers are strangely fat.

When Yang Momo saw a woman dressed like this when she was a child, she asked her elderly grandmother curiously, "Grandma, which minority sister is this?"

Yang Momo remembered that her grandmother showed an amiable smile at that time and slowly explained to the young Yang Momo: "This is the famous and hard-working Hui'an girl, but they are not an ethnic minority. They are Han like us. They have many stories that people praise..."

Later, Yang Momo slowly grew up. Although her grandmother was gone and could not tell her the story of Hui'an's daughter, Yang Momo slowly learned through some information related to local customs. "Hui'an girl" is a Han woman from Hui'an, Fujian Province. Their clothes are very distinctive, and there are also local A popular saying - "feudal head, democratic belly, save clothes, waste of trousers."

This popular statement is actually very interesting. It is based on Hui'an's dress. Yang Momo once heard her grandmother explain the specific meaning of this jingle, and now she still vaguely remembers that Hui'an's head is usually wrapped in a head hat and a headscarf to reveal only a small part of her face, which was a little old woman. The smell of wearing a mask when going out, so it was called "feudal head" in the 1980s and 1990s.

And Hui'an women's blouses will expose their waist and abdomen. In the 1980s and 1990s, people were not so open, so they felt that Hui'an women's belly was very unrestrained, so they were jokingly called "democratic belly". Of course, at present, Liu's waist is wrapped in a thick belt to cover his abdomen. After all, it is relatively not as open as in the 1980s and 1990s.

Hui'an women's trousers are half a meter wide. These trousers, which are naturally a waste of cloth, and their coats are so short that they can't even cover their navels. Isn't such a short cloth just the sentence "saving shirt"?

Memories surged like a tide, making Yang Momo look at Liu's outfit and recall some fragments of her childhood bit by bit. It was not until this time that Yang Momo completely determined the exact place after crossing with Liu's words and this outfit, and made sure that she had become a real one. Hui'an's daughter.

Yang Momo couldn't help slowly sketching in her heart a few years later. It was not until Liu Shi made a shocked exclamation that she interrupted Yang Momo's reverie, made her thoughts that spread everywhere quickly, and pricked up her ears to listen carefully to Liu's shock...

"Sister-in-law Wang means that she wants my seventh mother to be your daughter-in-law?"
