After breakfast, Man Qing felt alive. But then the problems came: the kitchen was running out of firewood, the water tank was running out of water, the rice tank was empty, the food basket was empty, and the kitchen was in a mess...... Looking outside, the yard was a mess, and it was still muddy because of the heavy rain a few days ago, and she had a lot of clothes to wash, and she borrowed two or three taels of silver for her mother's funeral this time......

Just when she was distracted, Gao Lao finished his breakfast, coughed at the kitchen, and walked out to eat.

The courtyard of the Gao family is at the foot of the mountain, out of the yard turn right is Xiaogaozhuang, turn left, and then pass through a dirt slope wasteland, it is a small green mountain. Xiaoqingshan is neither very tall nor very short, and there are certainly no large beasts, but there are a few hares and pheasants that are not so easy to catch. This mountain is normal, but fortunately, a small stream winds out at the foot of the mountain, and there are many reeds growing at the corner of the creek, which makes the ordinary foot of the mountain a little more beautiful.

Because the creek is a wasteland, few people pass by, and the only path that is not wide is that most of the time Gao Lao picks up a person to walk on it. After eating, when he was tired from reading, he would take the book, put his hands behind his back, stop and go, and mutter, it was really like pointing out the country.

Man Qing saw his old man's still chic back, and he was very strange whether this person had a heart or not, his family was like this, and he still looked like a ghost who would be able to pass the top exam tomorrow.

Hey, you can't compare with this kind of pure heartless person. Hold on, hold on until you get married!

Manching stood up and began to clean up the kitchen. Well, the rice in the rice bowl can probably be eaten for about ten days, and you can delay it for a day or two before you can find a way, but the water tank is really out of water, and you have to go to the well in the yard to pick it up later, or you can't make lunch, and you can make do with firewood and make do with two meals......

She thumped her sore waist and went outside to fetch a bucket of water.

The well is in the corner of the yard, and a reel has been erected on the well, which is more convenient than directly lifting water. But even so, after only carrying two buckets of water, Manqing was so tired that he couldn't lift his arms. Especially when the second bucket was brought up, she accidentally knocked her knee, and it hurt her bones.

When she came out to fetch the first bucket of water, Gao Lao Lao had already returned. He passed the courtyard, passed by her, paused slightly, and went into the study at the back.

Manqing didn't look up at him, let alone stop him to help carry water.

After squatting on the ground for a long time, Man Qing slowly stood up and staggered the second bucket of water into the kitchen tank. The Gao family's water tank was still purchased by Grandpa Gao, it was big and heavy, and the bucket of water just had no bottom - she didn't pour the second bucket of water down, just put it next to it.

After fetching water and cleaning up the kitchen, Man Qing couldn't stop a little, so he simply came to the yard to continue cleaning up. She is used to housework, although her body hurts everywhere and the speed is not fast, but slowly the yard has a little bit of the neatness of the Chai Niangzi when she was alive.

There are still a lot of places that can't be cleaned up for the time being, because they need to be rinsed with water. Man Qing stroked his forehead, looked at the already high sun, and suddenly found that the half day had passed quite quickly, and it was almost noon.

Noon means that you have to make lunch for Gao Lao. Even in the poorest days of the Gao family, other people can eat two meals, but Gao Lao can not miss three meals. But at this moment, Man Qing frowned, and then laughed silently.

It's a pity that her mother was not allowed to resist when she was alive, but now, hehe, she won't do it, watch Gao Lao drink water!

Thinking about her, she hurried into the kitchen and ate the little porridge left over from the morning. Then he changed into his working clothes, locked the door of his room, carried a basket, took a hoe, and went to the vegetable field.

The Gao family originally sold dozens of acres of fertile land one after another in order to get a show, and when Gao Lao's father and mother passed away, the last ten acres were also sold...... Now there are only three acres left. Before last year, the three acres of land were planted by the Chai family herself, but this year, when she got sick, she couldn't plant it, so she gave it to others. She opened a piece of land at the foot of the mountain, plus the land on the edge of the backyard, and the vegetables at home are not worried.

The land at the foot of the mountain is actually by the stream, not far from the path that Gao Lao often walks, and not far from the road to the Tonghe River. For more than a month, Chai's family was riddled with diseases, and she basically didn't get out of bed, and she usually didn't let Manqing work alone, so when she went to the field, she looked, hey, she had to find vegetables in the weeds!

At the turn of spring and summer, it was originally a time when the green and yellow were not connected. The rice in the field is not yet ripe, the sweet potatoes have just been planted, and the beans and peanuts are more than an inch tall -- even the greens are not much to eat in this season.

While slowly pulling the weeds, Man Qing picked out the wild vegetables that could be eaten. This year's rain is good, and the wild vegetables are very fat. After pulling it out for a while, she was pleasantly surprised to find a few small lilac mushrooms, which were called rising water mushrooms, which were the most fragrant and refreshing.

She's busy here, and Gao Lao is about to stomp through the ground at home!

He is dying of hunger, and his daughter, who is cooking, is gone!

He is a big man, how long can he eat two bowls of porridge in the morning, and at noon he was sitting in the study waiting for his daughter to come and call him for lunch, and he didn't want to be silent for a long time. Thinking that he had decided to forgive his daughter's young ignorance, he coughed lightly and walked through the dining room, and when he saw that there was nothing!

Where does a girl go to the wilderness if she doesn't stay at home?

He threw a tantrum violently, but no matter how full he was, he really couldn't imagine where his daughter would go - he had dropped a lot of books in the study, and there was no movement in the opposite room, and it seemed that he was not in the room, and the most infuriating thing was that the person was gone, and there was no food in the kitchen!

Not in the cupboard either!

Gao Lao picked himself up as Sven I, and couldn't help but curse a few foul words, and then went back to the room to get angry and find a way to make Man Qing look good.

After tossing and turning for a long time, my stomach was so hungry that I couldn't sleep, and when I saw that it was also the time to eat after eating, Mr. Gao sat up, put on his clothes and walked out.

Well, it's time to wash these clothes!--I'll have to talk about the dead girl!

He tried to make himself less puffy as he walked towards the river, because he didn't want others to see that he was any different from usual.

Gao Lao also has a well-known characteristic, he wants his talent to save face. Even if he eats chaff vegetables, he can show the spirit of a scholar in front of others.

Fortunately, there were not many people by the river in the afternoon. After walking for a while, he suddenly saw movement in the field next to him--he had a flash in his heart, and immediately guessed where the dead girl had gone.

He first looked left and right to make sure that there was no one before moving forward - it was not a gentleman to reprimand his daughter in public, "Gao-Manqing!" The name was a little awkward, "Why are you still here, why don't you hurry back and make lunch!"

Man Qing happened to be a little tired, so when he heard this, he stopped and sat on the ground to rest. As for the old man who is so hungry that he is willing to come here to find someone, let him scold, see how much strength he has to scold when he is hungry.

"Gao Manqing! Why don't you ignore your father's call?!"

"Gao Manqing! Is this the posture you should have as a human child? Didn't your mother teach you what the three obedience and four virtues are!"

"Gao Manqing, what are you still sitting and doing, don't you hurry home! Are you going to starve to death as a father?"

Manqing only felt that it was noisy! And she wasn't made of wood, the more she listened to those words, the more angry she became, she couldn't help but stand up all of a sudden and wanted to refute a few words, she didn't want to squat for too long, she got up too fast, her hair was dizzy, and she almost didn't fall to the ground!

Gao Lao was stunned when he saw this, he wanted to scold his daughter, but he didn't want to scold his daughter!" "Gao Manqing, who are you showing to me, you are not yet unwell at your age as a father, you are young-"

At this time, a sharp voice sounded high, "I said Gao Lao, your daughter is almost exhausted, you are still here to scream a fart, don't you see that your daughter is about to faint? I don't think Gao Lao will always scold your daughter, since you are not used to seeing her, forget about marrying her to me! Haha, I promise to make you lunch every day - what is lunch, haha, isn't it lunch!"

Gao Lao was so angry that he trembled, and first pointed a finger at Liu Datou, "You, you, you" for a long time, and then found that his daughter was silent and did not help, and felt that he had been greatly insulted, so he flicked his sleeves and went home.

The remaining two people looked at each other with some embarrassment and speechlessness.
