Chapter 1024
Not only Mrs. Liu, but also the surrounding villagers of Xinghua Village were all happy with the look of taking walking as a very important event.
"Old lady, be careful, try to cross over where there is muddy water, otherwise it will slip."
"Old lady, lift the skirt in front, be careful not to step on it, or you will fall."
"Hey, seeing how the old lady walks makes my heart beat, I'm afraid she will fall."
Wei Wei stretched out her arms and tried her best to keep her balance. She was already struggling to walk, but when she heard the people next to her slip and fall, the Empress Dowager became angry, "Ai Jia is not a three-year-old child, can he still walk? Listen You said, falling and slipping, cursing Aijia?"
"That's right, how decent it is!" Mrs. Liu continued smoothly.
There was a moment of silence around, and laughter shook the sky.
Knowing that these people were laughing at her, the Empress Dowager was not angry, and raised her chin slightly and hummed, "You rascals."
"Pfft ha ha ha ha!"
In the field, the big guys fell down laughing.
After coming to Xinghua Village, the Empress Dowager mostly stayed in the Liu family compound, rarely going out, even being dragged by Mrs. Liu to chat under the big pagoda tree, she seldom spoke.
Maintain the majesty and solemnity that the empress dowager should have.
Therefore, the villagers were in awe and did not dare to be too casual with the empress dowager.
But today's scene overturned the villagers' perception of the empress dowager, and they began to have a sense of déjà vu that she was such an old lady.
After slowly dissipating the awe, the look in the Empress Dowager's eyes naturally became more cordial.
Qin Xiao was in the field, holding a handful of seedlings in his hand, walking side by side with Mr. Liu, and sometimes looked up at the old woman who was still competing with the ridge, his eyes were full of concealed smiles.
He didn't support her in the past, because she is very happy now.
Even if her foot slipped and she fell, she still felt happy.
This is not a palace where rules must be followed everywhere, she doesn't need to be so disciplined, let alone care about decency all the time.
Mrs. Liu, Chen Xiulan, and Du Juan also didn't go there, but everyone was always paying attention to that side, and if someone really fell, they could go there to help immediately.
"Mother, is there really no need to go there?" Chen Xiulan was soft-tempered and worried more.
Mrs. Liu waved her hand, "No need, the Queen Mother is not happy when you pass by, she doesn't like to be underestimated."
When she said this, the old lady didn't hide her voice, and it was clearly heard in the ears of Queen Mother Ha who can.
The empress dowager snorted, it's rare for this reckless woman to be sensible.
It was still early, anyway, before they called it a day and went back to eat, she would definitely walk beside them.
On the other side, Liu Zhixia, Liu Zhiqiu and Wei Lan had already arrived with their second load of seedlings.
Wei Lan took the lead and walked like flying, Liu Zhiqiu didn't find it difficult to carry it, and walked slowly in front of Liu Zhixia, not rushing at all, and looked back from time to time.
"Tsk tsk, it's said that you are a scholar who is useless, brother, you see that you are getting weaker and weaker, can you still handle it?"
"Does the shoulder hurt? I haven't done farm work for several years, and the skin on my shoulder is worn out?"
Liu Zhixia looked at the bastard's gloating face indifferently, and stepped closer.
Liu Zhiqiu thought that the eldest brother came up to kick his ass, which was a popular move in their old Liu family, and first twisted his buttocks to avoid it, but he didn't expect the man to throw the bundles of seedlings he carried into his box.
Take it easy.
"It's really not good to do heavy work when you're old. You're busy with work every day. If you're rough-skinned and thick-skinned, take on more."
Liu Zhiqiu watched helplessly as the man carried a small half-frame of rice seedlings and walked to the front with ease, and then looked at the shoulder pole that was bent into a large arc on his shoulders, and slapped his face.
Why is he so mean?
Knowing that the eldest brother is a master who has a dark heart and does not follow the usual path, why provoke him.
"Brother, wait a minute, take some of the seedlings back and pile them all up here, the seedlings below will be crushed to death!"
"Don't go! My pole is about to break! I've made a mistake, we have to take good care of the farm tools!"
The man in front turned a deaf ear and only threw him the word Youyou, "Dirty."
"Fortunately, you are a scholar, have you never learned from Kong Rong to give pears? Do you know how to be courteous to juniors?"
"Kong Rong taught Li to be a bully. Don't you know that the Three Views are not correct? Have you read the books in the stomach of a dog in those years?"
"..." Liu Zhiqiu wiped his face, he convinced him.
When the few people reached the edge of the field, the Empress Dowager was still on the ridge, taking every step carefully as if walking on thin ice.
Liu Zhiqiu smiled strangely, and went around the field ridge on the other side with the burden, "Queen Mother, you are like a toddler, when will you get to the place? Or you should stay by the side of the road."
As soon as he finished speaking, a seedling flew towards him, and he couldn't avoid it with his skill.
thump.
The whole person and frame fell into the paddy field, and when he stood up, he looked like a clay figurine.
Seeing the little children walking through the fields, they clapped their hands and shouted and laughed, "Uncle Zhiqiu has become a clay figurine! Uncle Zhiqiu has turned into a clay figurine!"
There was another burst of laughter in the field.
The Empress Dowager stood gracefully and luxuriously on the ridge of the field, looking at Liu Zhiqiu's embarrassed appearance, she was in a great mood.
Liu Zhiqiu wiped his face dumbly, wiped the muddy water from his eyes, and pointed at the little dolls who were gloating, "You guys are bullying!"
"Slightly slightly slightly—" The children grimaced without any fear.
Liu Zhiqiu laughed angrily.
These little devils will be promising in the future.
Being dealt with one after another, Liu Zhiqiu realized the truth that the first to flirt is cheap.
Throw the seedlings into the field, pick up the poles and baskets to the nearby river and clean them together with yourself.
He has learned his lesson, and if he talks cheap in the future, he must see the timing.
In the field behind them, the children had teased Liu Zhiqiu, watched the empress dowager slowly move on the ridge, looked at each other, and ran over together.
Either stepping on the ridges of the fields, or directly stepping on the paddy fields, when they surrounded the Empress Dowager, they stretched out their small hands and looked up at her, "Grandma, the Empress Dowager, we will help you!"
They are young, but they are also sensible. They know that the old grandma who lives in the Liu family compound is called the Empress Dowager.
So they called her the queen mother's grandmother, which should be right. Old ladies of this age in the village are called grandma.
The hearts of the surrounding villagers bulged when they saw this scene.
Although their sense of awe towards the empress dowager has dissipated a lot, it still can't change the fact that the empress dowager is noble. Look at the little hands stretched out by the children, some of which are still stained with dirt and mud. Isn't this a poor empress dowager? ?
On the one hand, they were worried that the empress dowager would be angry, and on the other hand, they were worried that the little children would be sad if they were hit, and their hearts fluctuated up and down.
The empress dowager lowered her eyes and looked at the children around her. The older one was about seven or eight years old, and the younger one was four or five years old. The eyes of the little dolls at this age are full of innocence and have not been polluted by the world.
Their hearts are clean and pure, like transparent glass, free from impurities.
The Empress Dowager held out her hand.
