Chapter 60: Before the Wasteland

Mei Liu'er was actually awakened by the fragrance, they didn't eat at noon, they just ate apples and drank some spring water, they didn't cook before, but now they feel so hungry when they smell the fragrance.

"Lady, you wake up, then get up and put your face first, you can start the meal soon, I'll just cook another egg drop soup" Qu Ran came to call Mei Liu'er to get up and eat, and when she saw Mei Liu'er wake up by herself, she said so.

"Well, okay" Mei Liu'er was still a little confused, and she didn't sleep enough, so she was awakened by the fragrance of the greedy insects in her stomach.

Qu Ran went back to the stove room to cook the soup, and picked up a bowl of shredded radish sauerkraut that Mei Liu'er had pickled before, the sour and fragrant shredded radish sauerkraut can be eaten, she saw that Mei Liuer liked to eat a bowl of sauerkraut, she also liked to eat this radish shredded sauerkraut, and thought, 'Wait for the day when the lady has time, let the lady teach me to make this sauerkraut'

After dinner, the two sat and talked for a while, it was completely dark, and the two went to sleep again, Mei Liu'er thought before going to bed that she would go to trouble the village chief tomorrow.

The next morning, Mei Liuer and Qu Ran woke up, Qu Ran went to cook breakfast, Mei Liuer took advantage of the time and thought about what she would say about going to the village chief's house later, and the two went to the village after eating, Mei Liuer went to the village chief Wang Gengtian's house, and Qu Ran went back to the yard that Mei Liuer rented to their family to find her father.

Mei Liu'er arrived at the village chief Wang Gengtian's house, Wang Gengtian and his wife Wang Liu also happened to have dinner and were about to go out to Mei Liu'er's house to see Mei Liu'er, but they didn't expect to see Mei Liu'er standing at the door and about to knock on the door as soon as they opened the door.

Wang Liu followed behind Wang Gengtian, she saw that her old man opened the door but did not go out a little strange, she staggered to look, there was a person she wanted to see standing at the door, suddenly squeezed Wang Gengtian and walked out of the house by himself and took Mei Liuer's hand and walked into the house, and said "Go back to the house quickly, this winter morning is very cold, go back to the house warm"

Mei Liuer greeted the couple "Uncle, Auntie"

"Go back to the house quickly, go back to the house first" Wang Gengtian closed the courtyard door at the back and followed into the house.

As soon as he entered the house, Wang Liu stuffed a small hand stove to Mei Liu'er and hugged it, "Come and hold this hand stove, although there is no snow in this weather now, but this dry and cold is colder than snow, hold a hand stove to warm up"

"Auntie, don't you have it if you hold me?"

"You will take this child for you, don't you have a fire bucket if you have it?" Wang Liu stuffed the hand stove into Mei Liu'er's arms, and sat on the kang with his feet stretched out on the fire bucket.

Wang Gengtian also sat on the kang, Wang Gengtian was on the left side of the kang table, Mei Liuer and Wang Liushi were on the right side of the kang table, the kang was still hot, Wang Liushi reached out and touched it, got off the fire bucket, stood up and added a few firewood, and only came back in the stove hole and took off his shoes and sat on the kang.

"Liu'er lady, you also take off your shoes and go to the kang, it's warmer on the kang" Wang Liu went up by himself, and beckoned Mei Liu'er to go up too.

Mei Liuer also took off her shoes and went to the kang, she came to ask Wang Gengtian for help, she told Wang Gengtian about her thoughts.

Wang Gengtian's eyes lit up when he heard Mei Liu'er finish speaking, and he said, "Don't worry, uncle, I will definitely help you do it, tomorrow I will go to the county government to ask someone to measure the land, you have to think carefully about this wasteland, I will go to find someone to do it, there is no room for maneuver."

"Uncle, don't worry, I've decided, I've got all the money ready, it's just a troublesome uncle" Mei Liu'er sincerely thanked Wang Gengtian, the old man in front of her had helped her a lot since she arrived at this place, and she sincerely thanked him.

"Cheng, since you have thought about it, then I will go to the county government tomorrow"

"Thank you, uncle, you take this uncle, you must invite the officials to dinner when you go to the county government" Mei Liu'er handed over a small purse, in which she contained twenty taels of silver.

"Okay, Uncle is not polite to you" Wang Gengtian stretched out his hand to take it, and during this time of getting along, he also knew Mei Liu'er's child's temperament.

After talking about the matter, Mei Liu'er sat down and talked for a while, she said goodbye and left, she still had to go to the Zhong family, the Zhao family, Wang Erlang's house, and ask them to help find someone to open up the wasteland.

Wang Gengtian and his wife sent Mei Liu'er out, looking at Mei Liu'er's back as she left, Wang Liu sighed, "How nice it would be if this were my daughter."

Wang Gengtian glanced at his wife and said, "I think you want to say that it would be better if Shiro could marry someone back, it's not that I said you, it's not that I belittle our Shiro, we Shiro are really not worthy of others."

Wang Liu glanced at Wang Gengtian, "I still want you to say it, you know that others are fools."

Wang Gengtian helplessly glanced at Wang Liu, who turned around and went back to the house, shook his head and closed the door and followed into the house.

Wang Liu sat on the kang and saw that Wang Gengtian also came in, so she sighed and said, "You don't know that parents don't want to pull the good ones back to their children, this daughter-in-law is the same, the eldest to the third I don't treat them like this, you see that they are not living well now, you also know that Shiro has been in a daze from time to time after seeing the little lady in Erlang's house that day, isn't this just trapped, I'm afraid that he will be in a hurry when the time comes" said that Wang Liu couldn't say it anymore, Tears fell.

Wang Gengtian sighed, how could he not know this, but it was precisely because he knew that he would prevent his daughter-in-law from having such thoughts again, so as not to make Shiro deepen his thoughts when the time came, he was most afraid that his son would fall deeper and deeper, but in the end he was not able to get his wish and was deeply hit, as the saying goes, 'younger son, eldest grandson', this little son naturally got more attention and love from his father.

Let's not care about how the old couple Wang Gengtian and Wang Liu sighed, Mei Liuer came out of the village chief Wang Gengtian's house and went to Zhao Shi's house, mainly because the road was close and smooth, the village chief Wang Gengtian's house was in the middle of the village, and Zhao Shi's house was also in the middle of the village, so Mei Liuer went to Zhao Shi's house first.

When Mei Liu'er arrived at Zhao's house, Zhao Shi and his father Zhao Changhe were repairing tables, chairs and benches in the yard.

Zhao Shi's old lady Zhao Wang and Zhao Shi's daughter-in-law Zheng are doing needlework, taking advantage of the winter to have time to make shoes for the family, and then take out the clothes to make up for the repair, and if you can't make up for it, you will dismantle the soles to make shoes.

Zhao Shi's eleven-year-old eldest son Zhao Zheng is helping his father and grandfather repair things, the nine-year-old youngest son Zhao Feng doesn't know where to go after eating, and the five-year-old girl Zhao Jing sits next to her grandmother and her mother, and she is also holding a small piece of cloth in her hand and is seriously learning to do needlework, which is serious and cute.

PS: Xiaoyu, thank you for your support and non-abandonment of 'Liu'er'!
