After running in the field for a long time and showing his face, Guan Ping'an pulled his brother and refused the invitation of his friends to develop a map.

Nowadays, everyone regards grain as more expensive than gold, and they can go outside the village to pick up autumn, and there are many villages that have not yet finished cleaning up.

Not interested!

After dinner, before the brother and sister could practice a few big characters, Ye Xiuhe began to catch up, "It's getting dark, stop practicing calligraphy, go play." ”

Where to go?

The brother and sister glanced at the sky and smiled at each other, one ran to the backyard to pull a handful of firewood, and the other carried a small basket to load things.

Ye Xiuhe saw her son running in again to take away the matchbox, and was about to speak.

Guan Youshou, who came out of the East House, shook his head at her slightly.

"Didn't you make a brazier? ”

"They're just having fun roasting on the ground. ”

In the yard, the brother and sister put the bean stalks on the ground, lit a fire, and placed firewood on it, and then placed a row of budding rice cores.

Guan Youshou remembered the smile of his pair of bear children who showed off the bud rice stick, and couldn't help but chuckle again.

"What are you laughing at?" Ye Xiuhe squinted at him in disgust, "Our two children are not wasted, the buds are returned to the buds, and the slag on the core of the stick is also in the bag." ”

"Children don't know that the outside of the core of a stick can be ground into powder in a circle. ”

"What's more, it's not just outside, your mother can't wait to grind out the whole powder. Having said that, Ye Xiuhe didn't mean to complain about her mother-in-law. Not to mention that during the famine a few years ago, there are still many people who eat it now.

There are so many mouths below, she can't pass without picking at them. Guan Youshou said, shaking his head, "It's almost over, this day is going to be lively again." ”

"What do you mean?"

Guan Youshou smiled meaningfully at his daughter-in-law, beckoned and returned to the East House.

"Say it quickly. ”

"I really want to know?" Guan Youshou got on the kang and patted himself on the shoulder, "Beat it for me, and shout a few more nice sounds." ”

Ye Xiuhe hurriedly slipped his slippers on the kang, "Does it hurt?" I would have asked you to slow down, but you just didn't listen, now it's okay, it's time to go." ”

"Teasing you, you really can't do it?"

"You!"

Seeing that his daughter-in-law was about to pinch someone again, Guan Youshou hurriedly spoke, "Do you know why it's so lively? ”

Ye Xiuhe subconsciously looked out the window, "What are you doing here!"

"Didn't you think about having to divide the food soon?"

"What does it have to do with us? Didn't your mother already deduct the grain when you split up? If you really want to ask us for food again, you have to see if the other two agree or not. ”

Guan Youshou was stunned when he heard this, his daughter-in-law really didn't think about it?

"You've forgotten a big thing!"

"What's the matter?"

"From the beginning of winter last year to February this year, my second brother and I both went out to work, and this part of the work was no less than that of spring ploughing. Saying that, Guan Youshou laughed at himself, "Now that I want to divide the grain, I guess the old man is thinking about it now, how to instruct my mother to ask me for food." ”

"Why is he specifically eyeing our family!"

"I'm used to it. ”

Ye Xiuhe was speechless for a moment.

"You've been a little bit late, and whoever asks you, you say that our family is also waiting for the team to share the food and boil the pot. If my mother asks you how much you collected in the backyard, remember that the rations we borrowed before have not been paid off, and the remaining part will be made up after the food is distributed. ”

Ye Xiuhe frowned with a headache, "If she asks me who I have returned, I still say that I don't know, and you have the final say at home?"

Guan Youshou gave an approving look, "I've tidied up the house in the past two days, and if my mother doesn't believe it, you let her look at the warehouse." ”

"Really? I said the key is in your hand. ”

"It's not that simple, or I wouldn't have taken the time to tell you. ”

"Don't scare me!"

"It didn't scare you. Don't look at the old man's sons, he really has to find me if he wants to cut leeks. If you think about it again, let's say my second brother, how much ration can he get this year?"

Ye Xiuhe rolled her eyes angrily.

Guan Youshou laughed, forgetting that his daughter-in-law had just become literate, "The work of the two of them is a little bit better than that of Dazhong, but it is not much."

Dazhong and his old son and father-in-law secretly subsidize not to mention, my second brother has one more child than him, and he must have borrowed food until now, how much is left, you estimate. ”

Saying this, Ye Xiuhe quickly reacted, "My sister also has more harvests in her own land and backyard, and she exchanged most of the sweet potatoes with others last year." ”

"Yes. This shows that my second brother can at most keep his small family from starving. Guan Youshou then guided his daughter-in-law, "Let's talk about the fourth." ”

Ye Xiuhe shook his head again and again, "Needless to say, he is the first upside down." ”

Guan Youshou squinted at his daughter-in-law funny, "Then let's talk about my eldest brother." ”

"What is he worried about? There is your father's and mother's work, as well as the three pension grains that were deducted before the separation, and the fourth room has the most surplus grain in his room. ”

Guan Youshou shook his head, "You can't think about it like that. In previous years, I went out to work in Zhang Luo, and my father still had income, but now in addition to working in the team, it is gone.

Let's not talk about that yet.

Do you calculate that my father works six points a day, my mother has five points, my eldest brother has five points, and my sister-in-law has six points, how much does it add up?"

Ye Xiuhe pinched her fingers, "22 points." We both have 18 of them. ”

"Yes, if you count the eight members of their family, there are half a child in them, and they have to bring rations to school. Do you count if they have enough to eat?"

"Tut-tut......"

Guan Youshou smiled silently, leaving enough time for his daughter-in-law to think.

"No wonder the fourth daughter-in-law didn't smile when she met me, I said what happened to her. ”

"Now you have the bottom of your heart, right?"

"Uh-huh. ”

The rest is the ugly words ahead.

Guan Youshou smiled, "The old man loves face, and he also understands that he will come forward in person, and what he says is in vain, he will only instigate my mother behind his back." I'm not afraid of him, and I don't have to honor him, but my mother can't handle it. She may have waited for the rations and will stay at our house without leaving. ”

Ye Xiuhe nodded again and again when she listened, and reacted later, "Your mother really depends on our family not to leave?" hey, hey...... I didn't mean that ha. ”

Guan Youshou raised his chin: You go on.

"She's here, will your father come with her? Come back one by two, we can't get by? No matter how many things we have, we can't afford to do anything." ”

Well, I'm smart, I don't even say anything nasty, hate. Guan Youshou shook his head with a smile, "If the others really want to come, I'll catch up, and my mother will hand it over to you." ”

"Huh?"

it.

Guan Youshou spread his hands, "What's the way, this is my mother." I can't be a son who eats fragrant and spicy food, and my mother can't even drink porridge. ”

Ye Xiuhe looked at him suspiciously, "Isn't your father a kiss?"

"It's not my father, can I still get used to him? Is it that your man has already paid off his kindness, do you understand?"

"Understand, how much do you owe your mother?"

"Pregnant in October, what do you say?"
