The next morning, Lan Xiang cooked breakfast, quickly ate it, and immediately went out, like yesterday, on a tricycle home. Didn't call Ma Deze either, knowing that he would sleep a little later before getting up.

After Lan Xiang took the car and walked for a while, Ma Deze got up, looked at the time, it was already half past eight, and knew that Lan Xiang must have left, so he quickly got up, washed his face and brushed his teeth, and had breakfast.

After eating quickly, I locked the door with my satchel on my back and went downstairs to get ready to take the bus. Papa Ma wouldn't say he was late. Knowing that he is on vacation now, he will sleep lazy.

Lan Xiang took the car to the village, gave the fare, and hurried to her house, afraid that her mother and they would go out again.

When they came to the door of their house, Lan's mother and Lan Chengmiao were just about to go out, her mother carried a basket on her back, resisted a hoe, and her younger brother carried a basket.

Lan Xiang called her mother and second brother with a smile, and Lan's mother smiled when she saw her coming: "Xiangxiang, you are here, we will dig sweet potatoes today." ”

Lan Cheng also called sister, you are here.

Lan Xiang smiled and said okay, took the hoe and put it on her shoulder, and the family went out and walked to their own field.

Lan Xiang asked as she walked, "Mom, are you done digging peanuts?"

Lan's mother walked behind and said loudly, "After digging, there is still a field of sweet potatoes." We dug up the sweet potatoes and then carried them back. ”

The family walked very fast, a little dewy in the morning, but it wasn't cold and it didn't take long to arrive.

Seeing that some of the sweet potato leaves in the field were already yellow, Lan's mother immediately asked the two sisters and brothers to cut the sweet potato vines first, put down the tools in their hands, and the family began to work.

Ma Deze also took a car to the village and hurried to his father's clinic, where his father had already opened the door and an eldest mother brought her children to see a doctor.

Villagers from several nearby villages come to this clinic to see a doctor, and they don't want to go to the town because they have to take a car, and if they can see a doctor here, they don't have to waste the fare to run back and forth.

Only when Ma's father said that he couldn't see a doctor here, they would go to the town hospital.

Although the clinic in the countryside is simple, it can still cure many diseases.

Ma Deze called Dad, Ma Dad smiled and said You are here, continue to see the doctor for the little child, Ma Deze watched carefully next to him, and asked Dad to tell them.

Lan Xiang's family cut quickly, and by the time the sun rose high, they had already cut half of the field, and their hands were stained with leaf slurry.

The shoes on their feet were already covered with mud, and the family was reluctant to take a break and continued to cut.

Sweat slowly flowed all over their faces, and the clothes on their backs were also wet with sweat, and the two siblings often helped with farm work, and the speed was also very fast.

Waiting for Ma's father to finish examining the little boy who was a few years old, writing the cause and prescription on the case, and asking his son to grab the medicine, Ma Deze nodded and said okay.

Father Ma whispered to the little child, and then said to the white-haired lady, "Sister, this child has a little cold."

If you have a fever, take some medicine first, be careful not to let him catch a cold again, and if it is serious, you will need to get an injection. ”

Then I asked the eldest mother about the situation at home, and the eldest mother said that this is her grandson, and her son and daughter-in-law have been working outside, and they will come back after the New Year, and they will usually send a little money back in two months.

This time, the weather was a little hot, and he would catch a cold after blowing a fan at night for a long time. I won't blow it on him when I get home.

Ma Deze grabbed the medicine according to the prescription, and quickly finished it, it was all Western medicine, and after wrapping it, he gave it to Ma's father.

Ma's father immediately told the eldest mother about the time to take the medicine, once in the morning, noon and evening, which was three days of medicine.

The eldest lady hurriedly said thank you, asked about the cost of medicine, gave the money to Ma's father, and then walked out of the clinic with her grandson.

Ma's father immediately asked his son, "Lanxiang went home to help again?"

Ma Deze nodded yes, and then said that when she was done, the admission letter came, and asked her to send herself to school, so that she knew which school she was studying in.

Dad Ma nodded and said yes, and then said: "You still have to study for four years before you come back, remember to call her, or write a letter, you have to come back after the holidays, Lan Xiang is thoughtful."

She wants to wait for you to stop reading and then have a child, she told her father that the child will be taken care of when it is born, it will cost money, and you don't have a job to earn money, just Dad is opening a clinic to earn money.

She doesn't want to increase the burden on our two adults, so you have to be more considerate of her. ”

Ma Deze nodded and said I know all this, and she also told me, don't worry, Dad, I will be better to her in the future, and I will not change my mind.

Ma's father smiled and said that it would be good, turned around and stood up to sort out the medicine in the cabinet, and Ma Deze hurriedly helped.

The morning passed quickly, and when the sun was shining, the Lanxiang family finally finished cutting the sweet potato vines in the field.

Lan's mother hurriedly asked the two sisters and brothers to clean up and prepare to go home, the two sisters and brothers immediately said yes, and filled the back basket and the two baskets with sweet potato vines, Lan Xiang carried the back basket, Lan Cheng carried the basket, and Lan's mother resisted the hoe and walked away with the iron money knife.

The sun was very hot at noon, Lan Xiang walked very fast, so did Lan Cheng, Lan's mother walked to the front, and the family walked home quickly.

This piece of land is closer to home, and it didn't take long for Lan's mother to return home, Lan Xiang didn't stop on the road, and her shoulder hurt a little, but she gritted her teeth and held on, because the weather was really hot.

Lan Cheng had to stop on the road, because the weight he picked was heavier than his sister's, wiped the sweat with his clothes, and continued to walk.

After a long while, Lan Xiang finally carried home, and by this time Lan's mother had already put the mat in the yard and started to dry peanuts.

Lan Xiang put down the basket at once, gasped for several breaths, held it for a while, and wiped the sweat on her face with her clothes.

Hurry up to help her mother carry the peanuts out and pour the peanuts on the mat, Lan's mother quickly asked her to find a fan to fan, and she said okay.

After a while, Lan Cheng also came back, and he immediately put it on the ground, gasped, and wiped the sweat on his face.

Hurry up to find the fan, Lan Xiang hurriedly gave him the fan, and bought four pu fans at home, which are very needed on hot days.

Lan's mother quickly dried the peanuts, turned around and went into the kitchen, and Lan Xiang hurriedly went after seeing it.

Lan's mother began to burn firewood to cook, but the weather was hot, so she didn't dare to cook more, so she had to cook a meal, for fear that the rice would be spoiled and it would be a pity to throw it away.

Lan Xiang asked her mother what vegetables she was stir-frying, and she said that cabbage and bamboo shoots were usually eaten at home, so she asked Lan Xiang to light the fire and get eggs by herself.

Lan Xiang said okay, Lan Cheng sat there and fanned for a while, feeling a little hungry, walked to the yard and grabbed a handful of peanuts, sat down and began to eat.

I don't buy snacks at home, cookies and candies will only be bought during the Chinese New Year, and melon seeds too.

Lan's mother took three eggs, thinking that she was going to kill a chicken to eat, but she was busy with time, and when she finished lunch, she would kill one.

Every time she was busy with farming, Lan's mother would kill chickens and ducks, so that she could work hard, so that the two sisters and brothers would not say anything, and work hard to help her work.

Lan Cheng looked at the big sun outside, he wanted to sleep, he was tired from work, he was very sleepy, thinking that he hadn't eaten lunch yet, so he hurriedly went to catch peanuts and vines to feed the rabbits.

After feeding, I went to the kitchen and saw that the rice had been cooked, and my sister was chopping vegetables, so I quickly called my mother to get up and make the fire herself.

Lan's mother immediately said no, told him to wash his hands and take the bowl, and he would be ready to eat soon.

Lan Cheng immediately said yes. I turned around and went to get the bowl.

At noon, Ma Deze began to cook, and the dishes were bought by his father in the morning, and he quickly washed them out.

Ma's father was guarding outside, leaving his son alone inside, letting him exercise, and when he got married, he should cook by himself.

Soon the fragrance of vegetable oil wafted out, and Ma Deze was already stir-frying.

It is also two vegetarian dishes as usual, the weather is hot, eat lighter, and put a little chili.

Soon the two dishes were fried, Ma Deze asked his father to wash his hands and eat, Ma's father said yes, the two fathers and sons brought the food, and the two of them sat down to eat.

Lan Xiang's family also quickly fried the dishes, and the family also sat down to eat.

Doing physical work consumes a lot, Lan Xiang ate a big bowl of rice, usually she only eats a small bowl, Lan's mother told her to eat more.

She nodded and said okay, Lan Cheng did her work, and she would eat two bowls of rice each time, and Lan's mother's meal was about the same as Lan Xiang's.

The family rarely spoke, eating slowly, and when they were full, Lan's mother asked the two sisters and brothers to rest and wash the dishes by themselves.

The two siblings said yes and went back to the house.

Mother Lan cleaned up the dishes and went to wash them, and after washing, she came to a bamboo cage outside, and there was a big rooster locked in it.

Last night, she grabbed it and tied it with grain grass, ready to kill it and eat it today, and Mother Lan grabbed it out with both hands, about five or six catties.

Catch it and go to the kitchen, pick up the sharp kitchen knife, step on the feet of the big rooster with his left foot, it keeps crowing, and is about to kill it.

Mother Lan had a lot of strength, grabbed its chicken neck a few times, plucked the surrounding chicken feathers, picked up the kitchen knife in her right hand, and began to cut its trachea until a stream of chicken blood sprayed out.

Mother Lan hurriedly grabbed its neck with both hands, and it struggled hard, its wings fluttering wildly, until all the chicken blood dripped into a white bowl next to it.

Mother Lan put it in a wooden bucket and started to make a fire to boil water, and when the water boiled, Mother Lan poured all the boiling water into the bucket.

began to pluck the feathers, a person used fire to roast the whole body of the chicken, cleaned the internal organs, and by the time it was cleaned up, it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon.

Mother Lan washed her hands, sat in the hall, and squinted on the chair for a while, she didn't want to sleep, and she overslept later, maybe it was six o'clock, and she delayed digging sweet potatoes.

It didn't take long for the two siblings to wake up, and the two siblings turned the alarm clock, so they got up quickly and had to go out to work.

Walked out, saw mom sitting there called her, and asked mom when she was going out?

Lan's mother quickly stood up and looked at the sun, the weather was not so hot, she immediately asked Lan Xiang to cook at home, and she and her son went out to dig sweet potatoes.

Lan Xiang immediately persuaded her to let her stay at home and go out with her second brother, Lan Cheng said the same, and Lan's mother had to say okay and tell them to dig slowly. Cook your own rice and come out.

The two siblings nodded and said yes, and went out with the basket and the basket. Lan's mother hurriedly went to the kitchen to cook.

The two sisters and brothers walked very quickly, and soon came to the field, put down their tools, and began to dig, the speed of the two of them was okay, and it would not be so easy to dig up sweet potatoes.
