Chapter 307: Eat Grapes Without Spitting Out the Skins



Chapter 307: Eat Grapes Without Spitting Out the Skins

When he opened his eyes again, Jiang Fubao was already lying on a chair in the backyard of the shop.

During these rainy days, the temperature is not as hot and dry as before.

An occasional breeze can bring a hint of freshness.

"Mom, the grapes are ripe. I want to eat some."

Jiang Fubao rubbed her eyes, then trotted to the grape trellis, raised her head, and pointed at the grapes that had turned purple.

"Okay, mom will pick them for you later. After the rain, the persimmons and grapes will be ripe. Fortunately, your second uncle put a wooden board on top of them, otherwise you wouldn't be able to eat any of them. They would have been smashed to pieces by the hail. It's a pity that these two persimmon trees couldn't block the hail. There were originally quite a lot of persimmons on them, but after the hail, most of the fruits fell off."

Zhang Yanzi also raised her head. She saw only a few persimmons hanging on the two persimmon trees and sighed.

"It's okay, mother, these are enough for us to eat."

Jiang Fubao counted them when he was bored.

There are actually twenty-five persimmons on the two trees.

Not that little.

Everyone in the family can have one.

Plus there is a persimmon tree at home, that makes thirty-eight persimmons.

If you think about it this way, that’s quite a lot.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Now that you're awake, go wash your face and wake up. Mom will pick grapes for you."

Zhang Yanzi picked up an empty basin and a pair of scissors and cut the purple grapes from the grape rack one by one.

He squatted by the well and washed it several times.

I also removed the branches.

This way it is more convenient for my daughter to eat.

After washing them, she took a small bowl and put a dozen of them in it for her daughter.

"Go and eat." Zhang Yanzi handed the bowl to her daughter.

Jiang Fubao took the bowl, sat on the chair, and ate one bite at a time.

"Eat grapes without spitting out the skins, don't eat grapes..." She muttered the familiar words under her breath.

The grapes were not as sweet as modern ones and were more sour.

Jiang Fubao's face would wrinkle after taking a bite.

Even though it was so sour, she still finished it.

After all, it was the Guoguo that she watched grow up day by day, and it was different from the other sour fruits.

Because of this special feeling, she would eat the grapes even if they were bitter or spicy, let alone sour.

Time passed quickly by her.

When it was almost dark, Jiang Fubao continued to play games in the yard with his brothers and sisters.

Chen Qiuju had already walked to the village entrance for a walk.

Widow Liu waited for Jiang Guangyi in the corner of the field and also got three taels of silver.

"Are you really pregnant? Don't lie to me."

Jiang Guangyi was a little bit unconvinced. He was already at this age, but still in good shape and could make Widow Liu pregnant. On the one hand, he couldn't believe it, but on the other hand, he hoped that this was true.

It's about his dignity as a man.

"Why would I lie to you? But I've changed my mind. I want to give birth to the baby."

Widow Liu's words almost frightened Jiang Guangyi to the point of having a stroke.

"What are you doing? You know if you give birth to this child, neither you nor I will be in trouble. Although it is no longer popular to be put in a pig cage, it does not mean that it is not available elsewhere. If Jiang Shoujia wants to kill me, we will both die!"

Jiang Guangyi was so excited that he almost broke his voice: "I am no longer the clan leader. What are you dreaming about here? Go to the town and abort the baby."

"Don't worry, you won't die. I'm already this age, and I might not be able to get pregnant in the future. My son is unreliable, and my daughter is married. I only have this child. I have made an agreement with a man in Zhoujia Village, and I will marry him the day after tomorrow. He has never had a child in his life, and he can't wait to marry me.

Of course, I also told him that the child was not his own, and he was willing to raise him as his own to silence the villagers. These three taels of silver should be your compensation to me. If you have more sons, maybe you can have more options in the future."

Widow Liu did not offend him.

Instead, he spoke soft words.

The man she was going to marry was a nice person, but his family was quite poor.

He was only willing to give her one or two taels of betrothal gifts.

But his parents were all dead and he was the only one left in the family, so as long as she married him, she would be the head of the family.

He must be a hundred times better than the one the Sun family found for her.

Since her son was unreliable, she had to make a living on her own.

Worried that she would not have a good life in the future, she did not forget to stabilize Jiang Guangyi.

I was thinking of asking him for money later using the child’s matter as an excuse.

The two chatted for nearly half an hour.

Then they went home.

"What's wrong with you these days? You keep running out. Are you hiding something from me?"

When Jiang Guangyi returned home, he was caught by Chen Qiuju who had already arrived home.

He felt a little guilty and said, "No, I just went out for a walk. I'm not a prisoner. Do I have to stay at home every day? Okay, I'm sleepy. I'm going to sleep first."

"How strange." Chen Qiuju muttered softly as she watched him flee in panic.

the next day.

A big event happened in the village.

Widow Liu, who had been widowed for many years, was actually going to get married, and she was marrying in Zhoujia Village next door.

There was an exclamation in the village.

Unfortunately, the son of the person involved was completely unaware of this.

He was accompanying his wife back to Sunjia Village to discuss his mother's marriage.

Saved a meal.

When he came back in the afternoon, Jiang Zhuzi found that the villagers looked at him strangely.

Even Sun Xiaotao noticed it.

"What happened? What happened while we were away? Why are they looking at us? Did you tell others that I'm pregnant?" Sun Xiaotao narcissistically thought that she got pregnant not long after getting married, and the villagers envied her for her pregnant belly.

"I didn't say that." Jiang Zhuzi shook his head and denied it.

"Zhu Zi, is your mother really going to get married?" A talkative woman stepped forward to stop them and asked.

"Ah? Auntie, who told you that?" Jiang Zhuzi said and looked at Sun Xiaotao, thinking that she had let the secret slip.

The couple suspected each other.

"What do you mean by who told you that? Your mother said it herself. She's getting married tomorrow. Congratulations. You'll have a father from now on."

It was obvious from the woman's words that she was joking, and she didn't have any intention of blessing him. After she finished speaking, she left.

The couple was left confused.

"My mother said that? Xiaotao, did you tell my mother about this? That's not right. Didn't we agree to take my mother to Sunjia Village to meet him in three days? How come she's getting married tomorrow?" Jiang Zhuzi touched the back of his head, puzzled, and quickened his pace.

He wanted to go home and ask his mother.

"Don't worry. I guess your mother overheard our conversation, so she misunderstood."

Sun Xiaotao discovered more than once that her mother-in-law loved to eavesdrop.

Therefore, she was not that surprised.

The two returned home and found no one at home.

"Where is my mother?" Jiang Zhuzi searched the house thoroughly but couldn't find her.

It was getting dark.

Mom hasn't come back yet.

He was a little anxious and went to the mountain alone to look for it. Unfortunately, he found nothing but a shoe.

It was a girl's shoe, not big and tattered. He threw it casually at the foot of the mountain and went home.
