"You little naughty ghost", Luo Fengying knew that Lin Caiwei was deliberately teasing Lin Haihang, but this grandson was indeed too bearish. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Grandma, it's good if you don't get angry, you bought it for me, don't give it to Brother Lin, he always loves to bully me", Lin Caiwei pouted and said coquettishly.
"Okay, grandma, don't be angry with you, next time you come to see grandma, don't bring any fruits, grandma is not lacking here, you can keep it for yourself and eat more", Luo Fengying felt sorry for her granddaughter, and wanted to leave anything delicious for her granddaughter.
After speaking, she took the fruit brought by Lin Caiwei to Lin Caiwei, Lin Caiwei didn't answer, blinked, and said mischievously, "Grandma, this is her granddaughter's intention, you have to accept it, I'll come to see you next time, I'm leaving, goodbye~", after speaking, she ran away without waiting for her grandmother to react.
"Hey, this kid, I really can't do anything about her", Luo Fengying muttered in her mouth, shaking her head with a smile on her face.
Lin Caiwei, who ran out, saw that her grandmother didn't chase her out, so she stopped and walked slowly towards Grandma Li's house.
Lin Caiwei walked and looked at the rural areas at the end of the 90s, and on the walls on both sides of the road, you could still see such as, "If you want to be rich, you should have fewer children and plant more trees; if you want to make a fortune, you must raise fish and pigs and ducks," "If the country is prosperous, it is the responsibility of the husband; and it is the responsibility of the husband to plan for family planning," and "It is better to raise a pig if you don't study for a daughter!"
Seeing these slogans, she felt quite kind, this is the characteristic of this era, most of the people are still very simple, what the country calls for, everyone will do it, at least Lin Caiwei's hometown, there are almost no superbirths.
After a while, Lin Caiwei arrived at Grandma Li's house, she pushed the door in, and sure enough, she saw that Guan Yuhua was already seriously brushing flat paper.
"Grandma Li is early, have you eaten early?", Lin Caiwei asked when she saw Grandma Li look up and see her coming in.
"Weiwei is here, eat, come and do it, Xiaohua has just arrived, go talk to her, the old woman won't talk to you", Li Yuying said with a smile.
"Hey, okay, you can rest for a while, let's brush it", Lin Caiwei replied.
Lin Caiwei sat next to Guan Yuhua and asked in a low voice, "Xiaohua, how is it, can you adapt?"
"Yes, no matter how tired you are, you are not tired at home, I told my parents to come and play with you, and they agreed", Guan Yuhua also whispered back.
"That's good, then let's work hard today, and strive to earn ten yuan", Lin Caiwei heard what she said, so she relaxed and encouraged Guan Yuhua.
"Well, let's work together~", Guan Yuhua replied to Lin Caiwei with a firm look, and she was more attentive and energetic.
The two talk occasionally, but the movements of their hands are not slow, and there are only a few brushes.
At the end of the day, Lin Caiwei swiped more than 7,000 sheets, a total of 15 yuan, while Guan Yuhua brushed more than 5,000 sheets, a total of 11 yuan.
Although Guan Yuhua didn't earn as much as Lin Caiwei, she was not jealous, she was so happy, she really held eleven yuan, and she became more and more motivated.
Lin Caiwei saw that she was so happy that she couldn't find the appearance of the north, afraid that she would be short-sighted, so she reminded her, "Xiaohua, don't think that making money is more important than reading because you make money, we rural children want to get ahead, only reading is the most useful, don't forget to read if you want to leave here." ”
Lin Caiwei's words were like a slap in the face, and Guan Yuhua woke up at this time, "Weiwei, thank you for reminding me, I almost don't want to study seriously", Guan Yuhua said with some shame.
"What's this, no matter what, don't give up going to school and study hard", Lin Caiwei said seriously word by word.
"Hmm!", Guan Yuhua nodded in agreement.
"Grandma Li, I'm going to go to the market with my parents tomorrow, there are not enough people at home, so I won't come in the morning, I'll come back in the afternoon, do you think it's okay?", Lin Caiwei said to Li Yuying, who was loading flat paper on the side.
"Okay, don't worry, come back when you're done", Li Yuying readily agreed.
"Hey, okay, thank you Grandma Li", Lin Caiwei thanked.
"Xiaohua, come by yourself tomorrow morning, I won't come, I'll see you tomorrow afternoon", she turned back to Guan Yuhua and explained.
Guan Yuhua nodded to show that she understood, and the two went back to their respective homes and went to find their own mothers.
On Saturdays and Sundays, Lin Caiwei doesn't have to brush at night, after all, it's been a day.
When she got home, Lin Caiwei saw that it was only five o'clock, steamed the rice, took out the clothes to be washed at home, threw them into the washing machine like an asthma patient, plugged it in, and used a basin to put the water into the washing machine several times, let it turn up, and leave it alone.
Turning around, she went to the place where the pig food machine was put in the backyard, chopped the pigweed with the pig food machine, scooped a large scoop of cornmeal and bran and stirred it well, and then put it into a small bucket to prepare to pour it into the pig food trough in batches.
A few pigs only heard the sound of the pig food machine and knew that they were going to feed, and from the sound of the pig food machine to the mixing of pig food, these pigs never stopped humming.
Lin Caiwei pursed her lips and complained in her heart, foodie! Her proximity made these pigs more excited, and they hummed louder, as if to say, I want to eat, starve to death, give me food!
When Lin Caiwei fed these foodies, she was sweating, she was really tired, her parents were facing these heavy farm work every day, she didn't want her parents to be so hopeless and tired, it seemed that she would be like this for a lifetime, she couldn't see any changes, and she was old at a glance.
After feeding the chickens and ducks, the rice was cooked, she skillfully took down the hanging bacon, cut a small piece, and then sliced it, peeled peas, corn kernels, picked cabbage, green peppers, washed, and shredded potatoes for later use.
She is going to make a bacon fried peas, a cabbage and egg soup, a fried potato cake, and fried corn kernels with green peppers, and she will eat these four dishes tonight.
When it was dark, Lin Aiguo and Guan Lanfen came back, the two were so tired that they couldn't straighten their waists, there were a lot of families who harvested rice in September, and few people hired small workers to help harvest them, after all, most families are not rich now.
And today, Lin Caiwei's parents went to help the neighbors harvest rice, generally speaking, the rice harvester is to provide dinner for the helper, but Lin Aiguo and his wife thought that there was a daughter waiting at home and refused.
Lin Caiwei hurriedly poured two glasses of water for her parents, and then handed a towel to her parents to wipe their faces, and after they washed their hands, she had already prepared the meal.
"Dad, Mom, eat", Lin Caiwei said as she handed the chopsticks to her parents.
Looking at the four dishes, the color matching is just right, there is meat, soup and vegetables, Lin Aiguo and Guan Lanfen moved their index fingers, pulled most of the bowl of rice, drank saliva, Lin Aiguo said to Lin Caiwei, "Weiwei's fried dishes are getting better and better, Dad will give you 100 points, don't be proud." ”
"I don't look at whose daughter it is, how spicy the dishes my mother makes, of course I won't be bad", Lin Caiwei looked arrogant.
"Poof...... Little ponyf, she can pat her mother's ass, but her mother loves to listen~", Guan Lanfen was amused by her daughter's arrogant little appearance.
"Dad, you see my mother making fun of me", Lin Caiwei turned back to her father and complained.
"Okay, Weiwei, my mother is wrong, say it, what do you want", Guan Lanfen smiled.
Lin Caiwei rolled her eyes, smiled a little evilly, and said, "Mom, I'll go to the market tomorrow, I want to sell the fish and yellow eels I caught this week, and I have to take the money from the sale myself, and I won't hand it over!"
"No, children will lose so much money," Guan Lanfen refused without even thinking about it.
"Mom, you just promised me-", Lin Caiwei pouted dissatisfied, and quietly gave her father a look.
"Daughter-in-law, just promise Weiwei, I promised her", Lin Aiguo saw his daughter's eyes and hurriedly said.
"Mom, I also fed pigs, chickens, ducks, cleaned the pigsty, duck pen, chicken pen, cooked for you, and washed your clothes in a while, Mom, I'm so well-behaved - don't you reward me", Lin Caiwei said coquettishly.
When Guan Lanfen heard this, she also felt sorry for her daughter, recently her daughter was very well-behaved and helped her share a lot of housework, forget it, promise her, "Okay, but you are obedient and study hard, do you know?
"Yay~ Thank you, Mom", Lin Caiwei happily hugged the bowl and said.
With Lin Caiwei, a living treasure, Lin Aiguo and Guan Lanfen, who have been tired for a day, don't seem to be tired anymore, even if they are tired and hard, it is worth it for this family!
