Xiao Man took Grandma's arm and smiled: "You shouldn't slaughter the pigs that are raised for the New Year, right?

Grandma patted her: "Don't worry, the New Year is guaranteed to have a pig kill." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoLast year, your uncle and aunt transferred several accounts, to the autumn harvest team to divide the field, our family in addition to the increase in paddy fields, there are six or seven acres of dry land alone, your uncle and aunt can do a very good job, the paddy field and dry land are planted, but also go to the side of the mountain to reclaim wasteland, planted a lot of high-grain sweet potatoes and cassava potatoes, now the family has two sows, eight pigs, three cattle, hundreds of chickens, your aunt went to the market a while ago to see ducks and geese seedlings for sale, itchy hands bought a batch back to raise, half a size, not to be able to eat. ”

Xiao Man was dumbfounded: "Raising so many livestock, are you too busy? Our backyard can't fit it!"

Grandma smiled: "At first, I was worried that I wouldn't be able to raise it, but then I didn't see any work accumulated, thanks to the diligence of all the family." Our backyard is still the same, but the original pigsty and chicken shed have been demolished to turn over the soil and grow vegetables, do you remember that the backyard used to be a wasteland, right? There are more than three acres wide, your grandfather and the team applied to come over, a few cousins helped your uncle to flatten and tidy up together, rammed the wall into a big garden, where pigs and chickens and ducks were raised, and more than a dozen pomelo pomegranate citrus trees were planted, and a small piece of wild vegetable grass was stored for the chickens and ducks to play...... You've just come back today and you're tired, and it's dark, so you'll come back tomorrow and take a look. ”

"Hey!" Xiao Man agreed, helping Grandma to walk back to the house together, this time I came back to see Grandpa and Grandma seem to be much younger, Grandpa is full of energy, walking like a gust of wind and comparing with the younger generations, the smile on Grandma's face is happy and satisfied, that is from the heart, Xiao Man knows that all this is due to the return of Mo Jiabao, the reunion of flesh and blood and family affection, and she is also deeply happy for the second elder.

Xinghua arranged to take care of Tang Haocheng and Gu Shaoqin's washing and resting problems, and Xiao Man didn't go to see them, but only sat and talked with Grandma, Fifth Uncle Grandma, Eighth Uncle Grandma and Qiu Er's grandmother, and conveyed Grandma Tang's greetings to them, and the fifth uncle and grandmother and others also asked about Grandma Tang's recent situation, and learned that she was busy urging Boss Tang and Boss Tang's daughter-in-law to have children, and they would laugh heartily.

The summer night is long, although the day of labor, but people don't want to go to bed early, many villagers have dinner and come to the Mo yard, but also their own classification and pile-up, Mo Jiabao Zheng Shaoyao bought the 25-inch TV moved to the sun-grained flat, like to watch TV moved a small bench to sit in front of the TV, want to drink a little wine gathered around the yard has not dispersed the two tables of banquets, the women who love gossip and gossip are divided into groups of three or five to sit and laugh loudly, the whole yard is noisy, the laughter is hearty, like a happy event.

Little Manza sat in the grandmother's pile for a while, and Ailan came over to find an excuse to pull her away.

When I returned to my room, I found that there was a room of people, all of whom were girls of the same age in the village, some familiar and some who were not very familiar.

Mo Shuixia and Ai Lan's younger sisters, the neighbor Jiang Xuehua and other chicks ran to the front to call Sister Xiao Man, Xiao Man smiled and held hands with them, and saw Sister Liang Xiuzhen again, and hurriedly asked them if Uncle Mancang and Aunt Mancang were okay?

Liang Xiuzhu hurriedly said: "It's all right, my mother is all well, and now she can do all the work in the field." Just now, a few of us came to see Sister Xiaoman, and my mother asked me to invite Sister Xiaoman to play at home. ”

"Okay, I'm going to go when I'm free. Xiao Man replied with a smile.

Liang Xiuzhen said with a smile: "Ah Gong went to my dad and said that you are coming back, let my dad pick up the big fish and keep it, my dad went around the river for a few days, caught seven or eight four or five pounds, and raised them well, and my eldest brother sent them over this morning." ”

"No wonder I said that the fish in the river today is big and delicious, thank you Uncle Mancang! I didn't see Uncle Mancang come over for dinner just now, did you forget to call him?"

"Shouting," Liang Xiuzhen said: "Dazhi came to my house to invite my father, and sent a piece of pork, my father said that they all killed pigs, and there must be a lot of customers today, so I won't come to crowd it, and the villagers don't have to be polite." ”

A room of girls huddled together and talked for more than half an hour, the fifth uncle and grandma walked in, grandma smiled and said: "Little friends haven't seen each other for a long time, it's rare enough, right? ”

The girls listened and said goodbye, Xiao Man asked Liang Xiuzhen and Ai Lan to wait first, she sent everyone out, and talked with Liang Xiuming, Xiujing, Mo Zhiyuan and others in the courtyard for a while, and then returned to the house, opened the suitcase and distributed the gift packages packed in the capital to the little girls one by one, a few people were fresh and happy for a while, although they were still reluctant to leave, but they also knew that Grandma was telling the truth, Xiao Man was really tired in the car, he should rest early, and he reluctantly said goodbye and went back.

His guests were gone, Xiao Man also breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and took out a few gifts to distribute to a few little guys in the family, and gathered them to the room where Tang Haocheng and Gu Shaoqin lived to talk together, I haven't seen each other for a year, Dapeng and Qiu Yan have grown taller, Dazhi is the first time to see today, the thirteen-year-old boy looks very strong, his skin is slightly dark, Dapeng's facial features are like Ah Gong, and Dazhi is more like Mo Jiabao.

On weekdays, when they go to the capital to make long-distance calls, the guild will take their sisters and brothers to say a few words on the phone, Xiaoman and Tang Haocheng also wrote letters and sent postcards to them, so everyone does not feel strange to each other, there are too many people around Xiaoman's sisters and brothers during the day, they are very sensible to watch from afar, do their own work, this will finally be able to talk well together, they are very happy, regardless of grandma and Yu Wumei, the brothers and sisters are full of interest and talk until eleven o'clock before they disperse.

At this time, the villagers had already gone home to rest, Yu Wumei cleaned up the yard, Mo Jiabao took the TV back to the hall, Tang Qingyun drank a few more glasses of wine, and had closed the door to sleep, grandma nagged and told Xiao Man to take a bath quickly, Grandpa carried two large buckets of hot water for her and put it in the bathroom, Xiao Man was very embarrassed, and was busy taking his basin with a change of clothes and towels to take a bath.

When Xiaoman washed and came out, the courtyard was quiet, Tang Haocheng and Gu Shaoqin also closed the door and slept, Mo Jiabao and Yu Wumei led Dazhi Dapeng Qiuyan to the medicine garden.

Xinghua was sitting in the big wooden basin next to the well to wash and scrub, Xiao Man knew that she was washing Tang Haocheng's clothes, and hurriedly walked over to wash them together, Xinghua stood up and snatched the basin with dirty clothes in her hand, and said: "Summer clothes are sweaty and can't be washed in time, and it's easy to wash, you can rest, I'll be fine soon." ”

Xiao Man didn't expect Xinghua's strength to be quite strong, and she snatched the basin away without being careful, but where was she willing to let her help her wash her clothes, the two snatched them back, and Grandma came to see them, and said with a smile: "What are these two sisters doing?" Xiao Man, you go and dry your hair first, Xinghua soaked your clothes in soapy water, and the two of you will cross the water together for a while, isn't it?"

Xinghua nodded: "Okay, I'll soak it first, Xiaoman go dry your hair, don't catch a cold." ”

Xiao Man walked back to the house and took a dry towel to wipe his hair carefully, and when he came back, Xinghua had already washed all the clothes, and the two of them fetched water and water, and hung up the hanger after washing and dried it neatly under the eaves of the house.

After doing this, Xiao Man and Xinghua sat under the pear tree to take a breath and talk, dried the water on their hands and feet and went back to the house to sleep, Xinghua was really tired, climbed into bed next to the pillow and fell asleep quickly, Xiao Man listened to her sleep soundly, and let out a dream I didn't know whose name I called, snickered, folded the mosquito net and flashed into the jewel space.
