Chapter Seventy-Nine: Gratification

After the meal, Li painted the pots and bowls, cleaned up, and was about to go back to the room, when he saw Li Mo sitting in the yard sharpening the coulter, and stepped forward and said, "Big brother, why don't you go back to the house to rest?" ”

"Big brother is not tired." Li Mo tried it on the coulter with his fingers, and said, "Turn over the land again in the afternoon, and you can plant it in a few days, I want to plant some sweet potatoes and corn first, fourth brother, what do you think?" ”

Sweet potatoes and corn, these two are easier to yield more, and the land requirements are not too high, the eldest brother is very thoughtful, "The eldest brother decides, you know more about these things than me." ”

"Okay, you can go back to the house and rest, it's hard to study every day." Li Mo smiled slightly, sprinkled some water on the coulter again, and continued to polish on the whetstone.

Li Hua was a little embarrassed to be said, and it was still difficult to study, so how can the big brother say that they do these rough jobs every day? "Big brother, I'll help you sharpen the sickle."

"No, just a few hits on the whetstone." Li Mo said and tried the edge of the coulter with his fingers, and put it down when he felt that it was almost done, and then sharpened it twice with the sickle.

Li Hua squatted aside, looking at the big brother's rough palm, and suddenly felt very uncomfortable in his heart, "Big brother"

Li Mo was still waiting for him to follow, but seeing that he was silent, he asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" ”

Li Hua suddenly smiled with relief, "We have a daughter-in-law." ”

With a suffocation of his hand, Li Mo also smiled innocently, yes, the younger brothers have grown up, and they finally have their own daughter-in-law, the Li family will definitely spread out in the near future, and the father and mother under Jiuquan should also feel at ease.

——

Li Yan and Li Shu did not have the habit of resting, the two just went back to the east house, studied the problem of the lower door panel and the wall, and then came out, the family only bought two acres of land, they are all like the eldest brother, they want to pick up well, can grow some grain, have a good harvest, this year is not afraid.

After Li Mo packed up his tools, the three brothers went to the field again.

Li Man hid in the house, listening to the sound outside the door, and knew that the brothers had gone out to do work again, so he opened the door lightly, came out, went to the kitchen, saw that the dishes and chopsticks were cleaned, and scooped up some water to wash his own bowl.

After washing, he fed the pigs and chickens, and when he was busy, he thought that his new clothes would have to be washed before he could get on them, so he took the wooden basin and went to the well.

Li Hua actually went to the window when the door of the next room opened, looked at her secretly, and saw that she looked as usual, so he was relieved, and then, seeing her laborious pressure water, she smiled slightly, obviously she was a person who had never done this kind of rough work, and the posture of pressing the water was very wrong, so although she could press out some water, it was hard enough.

Finally couldn't hold back, Li Hua walked over, stretched out his hand and gently pushed Li Man away, and said, "I'll come." He moved skillfully, and after three or two strokes, the water gurgled out, and in a moment it filled the basin.

Li Man smiled and said to him, 'Xie Luxie', and just wanted to put all the clothes in the basin and rub them, but when he thought of the belly pocket, he instantly hugged the clothes into his arms again, and said to him, "You go back to the house, I'll just rub it." ”

"Hmm." Li Hua answered, and went back to the house.

Li Man waited for him to leave, hurriedly rubbed the new clothes in the water, washed them and took them to the bamboo pole, the sun was good today, and it should be able to dry in the middle of the afternoon.

It's okay with other clothes, it's just that she has to take back this belly pocket and pants before the men come back.
