The wife of two taels of silver

I haven't been home for more than 20 days, and there is a thin layer of dust on the table at home.

"Ugh."

I really don't want to move, but I don't understand what to do.

Lin Haitang first picked up a bucket of water and planned to boil some hot water.

You can't use cold water to wipe the table. Your hands, which have been well-maintained, cannot be frozen again.

The two children were very sensible. They stood in front of the stove and helped Lin Haitang light the fire.

"Momo, Lanlan, we've added enough firewood. You don't need to watch over us. Come here quickly." Lin Haitang didn't dare let the children get close to the fire. It would be terrible if something happened.

"Oh~" Gu Mo and Gu Zhilan responded obediently.

"Come on, let's make the bed first." While the water was boiling, we made the bed and did some work that didn't require hot water.

The bed is made and the water is almost boiled.

The three of them were cleaning the room with great concentration. When they finished cleaning, their stomachs growled and they remembered that they had not eaten lunch yet.

Lin Haitang slapped his forehead and said, "Look at my brain, I forgot about lunch."

"You guys play in the room, I'll go cook for you. Don't run around, okay?" Lin Haitang instructed the two children.

Gu Mo and Gu Zhilan nodded.

There were a few eggs in the kitchen, which helped Lin Haitang solve the problem.

"It's broken! My chickens and ducks!"

The last time she left, Lin Haitang thought she would be back in a few days, so she didn't ask anyone to take care of her chickens and ducks. But when she arrived in Yancheng, one thing after another happened, and no one would have remembered that there were chickens and ducks at home.

Lin Haitang hurried to the chicken coop and found that none of the chickens and ducks were there. There were some dried bloodstains and broken chicken and duck eggs on the ground.

"Damn it!" Lin Haitang gritted her teeth in anger.

Needless to say, it was taken away by a weasel.

Next time I go on a long trip, I will put my chickens and ducks in the space, Lin Haitang thought secretly.

It's just that it's too late to say anything now.

I went to the kitchen and looked at the remaining eggs.

It's winter now, so it won't go bad and can be eaten.

Thinking of the tomatoes in the space, Lin Haitang flashed in and picked a few tomatoes.

I looked at the space again, dug two potatoes, and dug a few sweet potatoes.

Whether it is steaming rice or rolling noodles, it is a waste of time. Just cut a few pieces of sweet potatoes and cook them as the staple food. It is simple and convenient.

When the dish was served, Gu Mo and Gu Zhilan stared at it: "Mom, what is this? I have never seen it before."

"Try it and see if it tastes good." Lin Haitang sat down and took a bite of the sweet potato first.

It was very sweet, and Lin Haitang and the two children were very full.

Lin Haitang really wanted to sleep after eating, so she forced herself to stay awake, coaxed the two children to sleep, and went out to buy some things.

Xiaobai has been staying at the village chief's house for a month. He can't just bring the dog back empty-handed. He has to show some appreciation.

Lin Haitang planned to buy some pork and an old hen.

After buying three pounds of pork from the butcher, I went to buy a chicken from old man Chen who was hiking in the mountains.

The butcher and Old Man Chen happened to be in the east and west of the village respectively, so many people saw Lin Haitang.

"Hey, isn't this Haitang? Are you back?"

The person who spoke was Erhu's grandmother. It was her grandson who had fought with Gu Mo.

The words were spoken in a very sarcastic tone.

"Well, yes, I'm back. What's the matter?" Lin Haitang said with a forced smile.

Grandma Erhu said angrily, "What can I do to you, kid? I'm just looking at your clothes. Oh, this is really good material. I'm so envious."

"Go ahead and be envious, you'll never be able to wear it in your lifetime anyway." Lin Haitang said calmly.

Lin Haitang didn't bother to look at the old woman's angry face, which had turned the color of pig liver, and just walked away.

"Oh, old sister, this woman is so ignorant. No matter what, we are the elders."

"What do you expect a woman like this to understand? Didn't you see that she cut off three pounds of meat as soon as she came?"

"Look at the way she's shaking her hips. Look at the material of her clothes."

"I don't think he did anything outside."

"A woman like this deserves to be thrown into a pig cage!"

……

These people only gossip behind her back and dare not say it in front of others. Naturally, Lin Haitang has no idea what they are talking about.

While walking on the road, Lin Haitang heard someone calling her from behind. The voice seemed familiar:

"Sister Haitang!"

Seeing the person coming, Lin Haitang's eyes showed a smile: "Sister Qiaoxia."

"Hey," Lin Qiaoxia looked at the person and said, "Did you just get back? This dress is really beautiful, Haitang. This red color suits you very well."

There is a difference between sincere praise and false praise. After hearing Lin Qiaoxia's words, Lin Haitang felt relaxed both physically and mentally.

"Sister Qiaoxia, you have fair skin and look good in red." Lin Haitang did not say any compliments. Although Lin Qiaoxia did a lot of farm work, her skin was still much whiter than others.

Lin Qiaoxia smiled shyly: "I'm already this old, I don't want to imitate you young people, otherwise people will laugh at me if I wear it outside."

"Sister, you are only a few years older than me, but you talk as if you are more than ten years older than me." Lin Haitang smiled.

"Enough joking, Haitang, don't take what the villagers say to heart..." Lin Qiaoxia put away her smile and said with some concern.

"The villagers? What can they say? It's nothing more than whether I can spend money or something. It's okay, I don't care." Lin Haitang didn't care. It wasn't the first day she was criticized. Besides, she didn't want to deal with them.

Lin Qiaoxia shook her head and said, "But there's more to it than that. They all said you took the Gu family's money and ran off with another man."

"What?" Lin Haitang frowned. What does this have to do with anything?

"Alas," Lin Qiaoxia patted Lin Haitang's hand, wanting to say something but holding her tongue, she only said, "Don't bother with them. They're a bunch of black-hearted people who can't stand seeing others doing well."

Seeing Lin Qiaoxia's hesitation in speaking, how could Lin Haitang not understand?

Since ancient times, if you want to throw dirty water on a woman, what else can you say? You can guess it with your toes.

Lin Haitang felt nauseous, not sure if it was because she was nauseated or because the little one in her belly was making a fuss.

"Ugh~"

Lin Qiaoxia hurriedly patted her back and was startled: "Oh, what's wrong with you?"

Suppressing the nausea, Lin Haitang straightened up and waved her hand to indicate that she was fine.

She kept bending her waist, revealing her slightly bulging belly.

"Ah!" Lin Qiaoxia asked, "Are you pregnant again?"

Lin Haitang nodded palely.

"Gu An is so lucky!" Lin Qiaoxia said with a smile: "Haitang, your husband is not at home now. If you have anything, just come and call me sister. Don't try to be too stubborn."

Lin Haitang felt warm in her heart and said, "Okay, thank you, sister. I will definitely call you if there is anything."

After saying goodbye to Lin Qiaoxia, Lin Haitang continued to go to Old Man Chen's house.

When we got home after shopping, the two children were already awake.

"Shall we go to the village chief's house to pick up Xiaobai now?"

"it is good!"

"Okay, okay~"

The two happy children circled around Lin Haitang.

Lin Haitang drank a glass of water and took her two children to the village chief's house. Just as she reached the door, she saw a snow-white puppy running towards her, whimpering.

The puppy caught Lin Haitang's eye accurately, its tail wagging out a shadow, whining, and rubbing its head against Lin Haitang's leg.

"Xiaobai, you're so big now!" Gu Mo and Gu Zhilan screamed, squatted down and picked up Xiaobai.

Little Bai's fluffy tail wagged faster and he stuck out his tongue to lick Gu Mo's face.

Gu Zhilan also put her face close to Xiaobai, wanting him to lick her.

Two little kids and a dog were making a big fuss.

"Haitang is back?" Hearing the voice, Duan came out.

Lin Haitang took two steps forward, put the things in her hand into Duan's hand, and said, "Aunt."

"Why did you take so many things again? Take them back!" Duan was startled and hurriedly pushed them back.

"Aunt, if you still want to recognize me as your niece-in-law, then you can keep me."

"You are my niece-in-law! Even if I don't accept these things, you are still my niece-in-law." Duan's mind was quick and she was not fooled at all.

Lin Haitang took the things back and turned to call the two children: "Momo, Lanlan."

"Mom?" The two children looked up.

"Hold Xiaobai and run home."

"Okay!" After hearing this, Gu Mo and Gu Zhilan ran home with the dog in their arms, running quite fast.

Duan looked at Lin Haitang in confusion, not knowing what she was going to do.

Lin Haitang walked around Duan, put the things inside the door and ran, shouting as she ran: "Auntie! I'm leaving!"

"You kid!"

Duan quickly turned around to get her things and wanted to run over to deliver them, but she saw that Lin Haitang had already run far away.

Duan looked at Lin Haitang's increasingly smaller figure, feeling neither amused nor helpless.
