Mother Lan immediately poured boiling water and asked the pony to drink some, Ma Deze nodded and said okay, and after drinking it, she rested for a while, and then Mother Lan wiped her feet and put on her shoes.

He walked away with a boiling water bottle and a water glass, laughing and telling them to come back slowly. Orchid: They said yes.

Lan Xiang and Ma Deze also put on their shoes, tied up the mat, put the iron money knife and the empty basket bucket into the mixing bucket, and carried it back slowly.

Lan Xiang walked in front, Ma Deze walked behind, and after lifting for a while, Lan Xiang felt that it was not easy to walk, took out those tools, smiled and said loudly: "Deze, you take these, I will fight the mixing bucket, it is easier to go." ”

After hearing this, Ma Deze immediately said: "Then what's the matter, I'll fight, you're tired." ”

After speaking, he bent down and put the mixing bucket on his shoulder, and walked away, Lan Xiang had to walk behind with an empty basket.

Lan Cheng rested twice on the road, this time less, and when he returned to his house, he immediately poured it out and dried it on the mat.

Lan's mother also arrived home quickly, and quickly washed her hands to heat the food first.

Ma Deze walked for a while, felt a little tired, stopped to rest, Lan Xiang hurriedly said: "Deze, I'll fight, you're tired." ”

Ma Deze didn't agree, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, this is lighter than picking rice, and I can resist it." ”

Lan Xiang had no choice but to look at him and whispered, "Then you slow down, and take a break when you're tired." ”

Ma Deze nodded and said yes, rested for a while, resisted and walked again, rested three times on the road, and finally returned home.

Lan Xiang persuaded her three times on the road, saying that she would come to resist, but he didn't agree, looked at her and said with a smile: "You have done a lot of farm work before.

Now that I have me, I also want to learn from you, do more, you are my wife, and I should feel sorry for you. ”

Listening to such heart-warming love words, Lan Xiang only felt a little blushing, and at the same time a little embarrassed, and said for a long time: "Why are you talking so numb, I feel embarrassed to hear it." ”

Ma Deze looked at her and smiled and said, "Okay, I'll try to say less in the future, compared to the people in the city, we may be conservative." ”

The two of them went together to wash their hands and get ready to eat.

Lan Cheng has already dried it, and Lan's mother has already heated the meal, and asked everyone to come and eat, and everyone said yes.

At this time, it was late, and it could still be seen outside, Lan's mother told everyone to eat first, and then harvest the rice and come back after eating, there was a lot of water, and it was good to dry it outside.

Everyone sat down on the bench in the hall, and there were three vegetarian dishes and one meat on the dinner table, and the fragrant duck meat made people drool.

Lan's mother smiled and told everyone to eat quickly, they were already hungry, everyone picked up chopsticks and ate, Lan Xiang helped Ma Deze clip a few pieces of duck meat and told him to eat quickly.

He smiled and said yes, and the family beckoned each other to eat, and the smell of the steaming meal filled the room with white smoke under the electric light.

The family finished eating quickly, Lan's mother went to wash the dishes, Lan Xiang went to hot bath water, and Lan Cheng and Ma Deze took back the rice that had been sunburned outside.

Lan Cheng moved quickly, took out the bucket, as well as the broom and dustpan, and rolled up the cool mat.

Ma Deze swept with a broom, and Lan Cheng put the rice into the dustpan with his hands, filled it and poured it into the bucket.

It didn't take long for it to be finished, and Lan Cheng carried it back to the hall with a flat pole.

Lan Xiang burned firewood and hot water, and Lan's mother also washed the dishes, and asked the pony to take a bath first, Ma Deze nodded and said okay.

Lan Xiang continued to hot water, Mother Lan closed the chickens and ducks, Lan Cheng fed the piglets, and only after being busy did she sit down to rest.

After Ma Deze finished washing, the family went to take a bath one after another.

The dirty clothes of the past two days didn't have time to be washed, and Lan's mother said that she would wash them tomorrow after taking a bath, and Lan Xiang nodded and said okay.

After a tiring day, they went back to the house to light mosquito coils and put painkiller plasters on their shoulders before they went to bed.

Lying on the bed, Ma Deze's shoulder was sore hotly, he hadn't picked up heavy work, this was the feeling, and he fell asleep after being sleepy for a long time.

The two mothers and daughters were also very tired, and they were really sleepy and slept.

Every time Lan Cheng came back from vacation to finish farm work, he felt that he would lose a few pounds. No matter how painful his body is, he has to do it, who calls himself a rural child, but he has never complained about his parents, he can only rely on his own efforts.

Lan Cheng was tired and sleepy, and he also slept.

The next morning, Lan's mother still got up at half past seven, knowing that the three children were very tired these days, so she didn't wake them up and let them sleep more.

After cooking breakfast, feeding the chickens, ducks and rabbits, and feeding the little pig, the chickens outside kept crowing, which still woke up the three young men.

The three of them got up one after another, and Lan's mother immediately asked them to wash their faces, brush their teeth and eat, and they nodded and said yes.

I fetched hot water, washed it one after another, and then had breakfast, which was also a dry meal, and I had to go out to work today.

Mother Lan put the mat in the yard, picked out the rice and dried it, pushed it away with a wooden push, spread it all out and dried evenly, and picked the straw inside with a bamboo grab.

After being busy, the sun had already come out, and Lan's mother went to eat.

The three of them hurriedly asked their mother to eat, and Lan Cheng asked while eating, "Mom, what are you going to do today?"

Lan's mother sat down and began to eat, and said while eating: "I haven't washed my clothes for two days, your sister and I will go to the river to wash, and you will go and pick up the sweet potato vines from the field alone."

You don't have to go, pony, you've been tired for the past two days, you go back to help your father, Lan Xiang will come back when he's done, do you think this will work?"

Ma Deze asked while eating: "Mom, how much work is still undone, I'll help first and then go to my dad, my dad can handle it." ”

Lan's mother had no choice but to say while eating: "In the past two years, I have done less, and all the grain grass and sweet potato vines have been moved back."

The firewood on the edge of the ridge will be cut once a year, so that the crops will be planted tomorrow.

When they grow taller, they have to be cut down, and they can't be allowed to grow into trees, which will affect other people's crops, and others will say.

The family has always burned firewood, saving some. It's hard to make money now. ”

Lan Xiang had already finished eating, and immediately said with a smile: "Deze, you go back to Dad, he may be a little busy alone sometimes, you go, I'll be back when I'm done." ”

Ma Deze had no choice but to nod and say okay, after the family finished eating, Mother Lan had packed several catties of peanuts and let the pony carry them back to eat.

Ma Deze smiled and said okay, the family told him to walk slowly, he said yes, said hello and left with peanuts.

Lan Xiang and her mother went to the river to wash their clothes, and Lan Cheng also closed the door, went to the field with a basket, and picked up the remaining sweet potato vines.

The river was not far from home, and the two mothers and daughters walked quickly with their clothes.

It didn't take long for it to arrive, and at this time, there were a few ladies by the river who were washing clothes, and when they saw them coming, they called Lan Xiang and Lan Ma with a smile.

Lan Xiang and her mother also laughed and called them, two days of dirty clothes were a little too much, four wooden barrels were filled, the water in the river was a little green, and some ducks and geese swam in it, calling from time to time.

Lan Xiang poured two and a half buckets of water, poured laundry detergent, and soaked Ma Deze's clothes first, and Lan's mother soaked her son's clothes first.

Usually, Lan Cheng's clothes are washed by himself, but now that he is busy with the farm and has no time to wash them, Lan's mother will help him wash them.

Several eldest ladies also knew that Lan Xiang was married, so they asked Lan's mother and knew that she was married to Dr. Ma's family and lived in the town with his son.

Several eldest ladies have also seen Ma Deze, because they have been to the clinic to see a doctor, so they also know.

Looking at the beautiful Lan Xiang, several aunts smiled at each other and said, "Sister Lan, you are still blessed, Lan Xiang is married closely, you can come back to help at any time, and Dr. Ma's family conditions are also good." ”

Lan's mother said while washing: "Yes, it's all Lan Xiang's own blessings, and the pony is good to her, and she has come back to help in the past two days." ”

Several ladies looked at the beautiful Lanxiang, and said while washing: "Yes, Lanxiang, this girl is good-looking, and her blessings are naturally good."

Lan Xiang, when will you give birth to a child, and then the aunts can take a look at your child. ”

Lan Xiang blushed when she heard this, so she had to blush and say, "It's still early, let's do it later, I still want to help my mother more." ”

Several eldest ladies nodded, and they all said the same, and then discussed that if they have children, their mother's family is not so easy to take care of, they have children, and they have to be busy with everything for their children.

As they spoke, after unconsciously scrubbing and washing, Lan Xiang and her mother put all their clothes into the river and washed them again, wrung them all out, and put them in a wooden barrel.

A few ladies also finished washing, said hello, and picked up their clothes and left.

It didn't take long for Lan Xiang and her mother to finish washing, and the two mothers and daughters picked up their clothes and hurried home.

Lan Cheng has already picked it up twice and stacked the sweet potato vines under the eaves, which is cold in winter and has little grass, so that he can feed the rabbits.

The mother and daughter went home, found a hanger, dried all the clothes, and hung them on the bamboo poles tied outside.

This time there were a lot of clothes, and the hangers were also used up, and after drying the clothes, Lan's mother asked Lan Xiang to help her younger brother together.

The two mothers and daughters put the basket on their backs, walked quickly, and soon arrived at the edge of the soil, Lan Cheng was just full, and when she saw her mother and sister coming, she called them with a smile.

The two mothers and daughters nodded and said yes, each filled the back basket, and the family left one after another.

After three trips back and forth, I finally finished moving.

At this time, the sun was also getting bigger, and Lan's mother looked at the time, it was almost eleven o'clock, and she was sweating profusely.

After Lan Cheng came back, he hurriedly went to wash his hands and face, he was busy these days, and Lan Cheng had long wanted to wash his hair.

Lan Xiang too, told her mother, go to hot water to wash her hair, Lan's mother said okay.

Lan Xiang lit the fire, burned the firewood, quickly heated the water, and told her brother to wash it first.

Lan Cheng nodded and said okay, put the water in the basin, and wash it in the courtyard outside, the sun was a little hot, and he washed his hair with hot water, Lan Cheng felt that he was sweating all over his body.

Wet your hair, apply shampoo, scrub it quickly, and it didn't take long for it to be washed, and the hair was short so fast.

After washing, Lan Cheng asked her sister to wash, Lan Xiang said okay, her hair is also short, and she washed it in the bathroom with water, it was so hot outside.

Lan Cheng found a fan, and only went outside when the fan was cold, let her mother come in, and turned the rice over with a bamboo grab.

Lan's mother walked in and sat down to rest, Lan Cheng's hair was against the sun, and by the time he finished drying, his hair had dried out a lot.
