Chapter 190 Suddenly I remembered Xu Xiaohua
Why am I so petty!
Zeng Hua thought again, since Zhang Long was captured, except for the time when she asked her to wake up Zhang Daniu, she had never come here again. Why did it take so long for her to realize that something was wrong...
Zeng Hua looked at Zhang Quan and said, "Oh, I was really angry at that time. We farmers depend on the weather for our livelihood, but when the harvest is bad, we will complain that the weather is unfair."
"You!" Zhang Quan sighed.
"When you have time, talk to Xiao He. We are still relatives. Don't let Big Brother and Big Sister-in-law get caught in the middle."
Zeng Hua nodded: "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
Zhang Quan nodded: "Okay, now that Daniu and the girl from the Tian family have settled down, you should take good care of this matter these days, and tell Daniu not to have any other thoughts. I have seen that the girl from the Tian family is very good, so he should not be ungrateful."
"Okay, I understand!"
Zhang Quan finished smoking his pipe and went to the fields with his bucket on his shoulder. "I'm going to water the fields. Tomorrow I have to help Mr. Meng repair his house. I'll try to finish it before the 18th of next month so I can earn more money and make the wedding more respectable. Don't let the girl from the Tian family down."
Zeng Hua nodded and understood.
As soon as Zhang Quancai left the house, Zhang Da Niu came out of her room carrying a basket and said to Zeng Hua, "Mom, I'm going to ask my cousin's wife to embroider a handkerchief for me."
Zeng Hua quickly stopped her and said, "Your cousin's wife is having a lunch break now. If you go now, you will disturb her. Go there later."
Zhang Daniu pursed her lips and said "oh", then sat down next to her: "Mom, what were you talking to Dad about? Why did you talk for so long?"
"Don't ask about adults' affairs. Come, let me take a look at your recent embroidery work."
Zhang Da Niu took out the pattern she had embroidered from the basket and said, "These handkerchiefs are all embroidered according to the puppet pattern my cousin made last year. Do you think they look good, mother?"
Zeng Hua nodded: "It looks good."
Zhang Daniu proudly picked up the handkerchief and said with a smile: "I can sell these handkerchiefs for a few more cents at Bush's shop in town, all thanks to my cousin's wife."
After hearing her say this, Zeng Hua felt even more guilty.
"Yes, Xiao He is really good to our family."
Zhang Daniu heard something was wrong: "Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Zeng Hua shook her head: "It's okay, Mom, it's okay. There are still some vegetable seedlings in the backyard that have not been planted. You continue to embroider the handkerchief, and Mom will go and plant those seedlings."
Zhang Da Nv said "oh" and then lowered her head to embroider the handkerchief seriously.
After having a good sleep in the afternoon, Jiang Xiaohe felt refreshed when she woke up. She heard the voices of Zhang Da Niu and Wang Qiuxia outside, so she hugged Zhang and went out of the house.
When Zhang Danniu saw that she was awake, she immediately smiled and greeted her, "Cousin, you are finally awake."
Jiang Xiaohe smiled. Zhang Chuan in her arms wanted to go to the ground. As soon as she put him on the ground, she ran towards Zhang Da Nv.
"Auntie hugs."
Zhang Daniu quickly put down her needlework and picked him up: "You little rascal, why haven't you come to play with your aunt these days?"
Zhang Chuan played with her hair and smiled.
Wang Qiuxia quickly raised her hand and took the child over: "Alright, Chuan'er, let grandma hold him. Auntie still needs to embroider."
Zhang Chuan rested his head on Zhang Danniu's shoulder, unwilling to leave.
"It's alright, auntie. I'm not in a hurry to embroider."
Just as he finished speaking, Wang Xiaoya came back from outside, carrying a bucket and covered in mud.
"Hey, little girl, where have you been? Why are you so dirty?"
These days, Wang Xiaoya has been getting along very well with many children of the same age in their village. Of course, she also helps with things at home within her ability and takes care of Zhang Chuan, but whenever she is free, she will go to play with her friends. After all, children are very playful.
Bai Yulan saw her like this and her face suddenly turned cold: "You go out and have fun all day long and don't help with the work. If you continue like this, your grandfather and I will take you back to Wangjiawan."
Wang Xiaoya was a little scared and immediately knelt down and said that she was wrong.
Wang Qiuxia quickly protected her: "Mom, it's nothing. There's not much work to do at home. She can play however she wants, as long as she doesn't get hurt."
As he spoke, he helped Wang Xiaoya up.
"It's okay, it's okay, your grandma is worried about you because she sees that you are so dirty."
Wang Xiaoya looked at Bai Yulan cautiously, and felt relieved when she saw that she didn't say anything.
She was covered in mud and her face was covered in sweat. Jiang Xiaohe asked with a smile, "What's in the bucket, Xiaoya?"
Wang Xiaoya said in a low voice a little embarrassedly: "Cousin, it rained yesterday, and there was a lot of water in the reed marsh. Many fish were trapped in the small puddles in the reed marsh. You see, I caught quite a few." After that, she removed the grass covering the bucket. She covered it with grass because she was afraid that the fish would jump out of the bucket on the way.
Wang Qiuxia walked over and took a look: "Wow, there are really a lot of them."
Zhang Chuan wanted to go downstairs to check immediately, but Zhang Danv let him go.
He bravely reached out to tease the fish, but was frightened by the fish and backed away repeatedly.
That little look made everyone in the yard laugh.
Bai Yulan's expression also eased, and she said to Wang Xiaoya, "Why don't you go and change these dirty clothes quickly?"
When Wang Xiaoya saw that her grandmother didn't blame her, she left immediately.
Jiang Xiaohe picked up the handkerchief embroidered by Zhang Daniu and nodded slightly: "You embroidered all the styles of the puppets."
"Am I very smart?" Zhang Danniu said with a smile as if seeking credit.
Jiang Xiaohe couldn't help laughing at her words: "Yes, yes, our girl is very smart!"
Having said that, they sat down in the yard. Wang Qiuxia went to the backyard to pick some grapes, washed them and brought them over.
Zhang Daniu took one look and said, "Cousin, do you think it's okay if I embroider these grapes on the handkerchief?"
"Of course!"
"Then I have to observe carefully what it looks like."
After saying that, he began to copy while looking at it.
When Jiang Xiaohe looked at the grapes, she suddenly thought of Xu Xiaohua again. If Xu Xiaohua had not helped her find the grapes, she would not have been able to earn so much money. Without so much money, she could not have built the house, let alone open a shop in the town.
It has been so long, and I haven't heard anyone mention her again, and I don't know how she is doing now.
Thinking of this, he thought, I will ask someone one day. If she is doing well, I will give her the twenty taels of silver that belonged to her from selling wine. If she is not doing well, I will lend her a hand and repay her for the kindness of taking her to find grapes.
