Ma Zhenzhong "called" and parked the ox cart at the gate of the closed house, it was lunch time, and many people were at home after work.

In addition to the strong labor of going out to repair the canal, the rest of the production team is not idle, and there is still a lot of farm work to do before spring ploughing, such as selecting seeds, burning stubble, and turning the ground.

The so-called stubble burning is to dig up and burn the roots of the crops left in the field when the corn and sorghum were harvested last year, which is also to fertilize the field.

But it's always a black sheep.

For example, Guan Youfu, the boss of Guan, is said to have a recurrence of his back injury, and the old man Guan believes in this evil and wants to find Captain Ma to sell his old face to ask for an easy life for his eldest son.

Hearing the movement, Uncle Guan came to the gate with his hands behind his back, turned his head and shouted towards the courtyard, "Come out and help personally." As he spoke, he asked, "Is An An okay?"

Guan Youshou came down with the child in his arms and hummed softly.

Guan Ping'an hurriedly called grandpa.

Anyway, she's a granddaughter, and she has to be polite. That is, now, if it was placed a thousand years ago, in the name of unfilial piety, her father would be miserable.

Aunt Guan is over fifty years old, half of her hair is white, and there are a lot of wrinkles on her face.

She followed her eldest daughter-in-law and several grandchildren out of the yard, and before she could speak, her eldest daughter-in-law Liu Chunhua shouted, "Yo, are you willing to come back?"

Aunt Guan picked up the sao Gada in her hand and pumped it on her, scolding while smoking, "You are a troublemaker, I let you talk a lot, I will let you ......"

Liu Chunhua strode to the side and flashed, "Mother, what are you doing, I'll just tell you what's wrong, what kind of temper are you experiencing, it was original, Uncle Ma said that there was nothing wrong, and his little girl's film was worth a lot ......of money?

Uncle Guan shouted angrily: "Shut up for me!"

Liu Chunhua was still a little afraid that her father-in-law would be angry, so she immediately closed her mouth, her eyes were aimed at the wrapping skin that Ye Xiuhe was carrying, and she stepped forward, "Brother and sister, I'll come, I'll help you carry it." ”

Ye Xiuhe rolled her eyes, pushed her away with one hand, called out to her father, squeezed into the door and went straight to her room.

Guan Ping'an looked at her eldest aunt Liu Chunhua dumbfounded, pursed her lips indifferently, and muttered: What is the stinky show, isn't it spending my money?

Even Guan Youshou heard this, he sneered, turned to Ma Zhenzhong and said, "Thank you, brother don't say much, go back to your house and talk." ”

Ma Zhenzhong patted him on the shoulder sympathetically, jumped on the ox cart and threw up the bullwhip and hurriedly left, worried that he would not be able to control his broken mouth if he was late.

"The third child, have you eaten? My mother left you food, so hurry up and take the child to eat first. ”

Guan Youshou smiled at Aunt Guan, "Mother, I'll be here soon." ”

Watching her son's family go in, Aunt Guan frowned at her wife, sighed and turned in.

"Master, my third uncle bought something. ”

"I smell the scent too. ”

Uncle Guan glared at a pair of grandsons, and followed him into the courtyard with his hands behind his back.

In the past two days, the atmosphere at home was not right, and the two younger sons of the big house didn't dare to say much, so they went into the courtyard dejectedly and spat in the direction of the third room.

The corner of Uncle Guan's eyes twitched, and he glared fiercely at the eldest daughter-in-law who entered the door.

Liu Chunhua waited for him to turn around and roll her eyes, twisted her ass and went to her room, she had to reason with the child's father, she was the daughter-in-law of the long house, are there any rules?

Guan Ping'an's family didn't know anything about the movement outside, and at this moment she was seriously looking at her small family.

Similar to what I remember, this room is not small, but there are not many things, the most conspicuous of which is a large kang by the window.

There are shiny kang mats on the kang, and there are two beds washed white stacked together on the kang, with big red and green flowers sandwiched between large flower quilts like mandarin ducks.

This is the quilt her parents made when they got married.

At the edge of the pit, there are two large red wooden boxes side by side, and there are two large and small baskets on them, one of which is a sewing basket.

In the corner behind the door was a wooden shelf made by her father, with a round washbasin on top and a footbasin below.

The wall is pasted with yellowed white paper, and there are five colorful New Year paintings, new and old, but they are all very clean, it should be that the parents have been reluctant to tear off for five years.

The whole room is simple but clean and tidy.

"Eat first. ”

As Guan Youshou's words sounded, Ye Xiuhe put things in the wooden box, put on a small lock, picked up Guan and went out the door safely.

The houses of the Guan family are very simple, but the combined area of the front and back yards is not small, and there is a row of five mud and straw houses with herringbone beams in the front.

Now the east house lives in Uncle Guan and his wife, next to him is Guan Lao's four and his family, and the two west houses connected to the middle outhouse are the bedrooms of Guan Lao's family.

Originally, one of them belonged to Guan Youlu, the second of Guan Lao, but later he was scolded by Liu Chunhua a few times when he came and went, and moved to three mud and straw houses in the backyard with Guan Laosan.

Two large and small bungalows and a two-room warehouse are all mud and straw houses, surrounded by a fence about 1.5 meters high to form a large courtyard.

There are about 200 households in the whole of Maliutun, and every family has pigs and chickens, so almost every family has a yard fenced.

Of course, there are a few wealthy families in the village, such as the patriarch and captain of the Lao Ma family, as well as the old man Zhao, who live in a blue brick house with a mud wall.

Outsiders like the Guan family occupy a very good geographical location, and the reason why they can have such a large foundation is that in addition to the remote location, this land is the most barren.

The most intuitive point.

It is far away from the small river, the water source of the village, so the Guan family spent a lot of money to dig a well. Especially in the great drought a few years ago, the well could not get water at all, if it weren't for Uncle Guan's four sons, it would have been impossible to grab water at the beginning.

This is also one of the reasons why Uncle Guan would rather build a three-room house in the backyard than split up.

Bullying can't be avoided anywhere, and if you want to integrate into the village dominated by the Ma family, there are no hundreds of years, and people still think that you are an outsider.

If it weren't for the geographical location of this village that he took a fancy to back then, if he hadn't had four sons and a daughter, and if he hadn't had some friendship with the Ma family, he really wouldn't dare to settle here.

Since the youngest son married the Ma family, he has seen that his family has more and more right to speak, but the third child has begun to toss again, how can he not see that this son wants to split up?

The family is indeed thanks to this son.

Even if he didn't listen to his own advice at the beginning, rejected Ma Lao Liu's proposal, and then married his current daughter-in-law for the sake of his appearance, he had to admit it.

Among the four sons, only the third child is the least of his worries.

What is a dear brother?

He lacked his own brothers in his life, if his parents hadn't died early, he wouldn't have been sold to the provincial capital as a slave by his cousin.

Especially when the birth of a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses made him happy and sad.

It is indeed a good omen, but I am even more worried about what the midwife said at the beginning, it will be difficult for the third daughter-in-law to have children in the future. Tell me, seeing that this room will be the only seedling in the future.

Why doesn't he think about it and think about it a little more, a good man needs three helps, who can help God in the future, who can be better than blood relatives?
