"I'm up, help my mother cook, you can sleep again."

Xu Ying couldn't lie down anymore and got up to get dressed.

"I'll get up too, I've slept enough, I'll get up and see what I can do."

Liu Mingda put down the bowl in his hand and ate a bowl of hot egg water, he felt warm all over his body, and his fatigue was swept away. The whole person was refreshed again.

When Xu Ying arrived at the yard, the yard of his house was still very large, it was the kind of dirt yard, but it was very smooth.

There are several big trees planted in the yard, the one inside is a paulownia tree, and the one next to the door is a big locust tree.

On the other side, there is a field of flowers that have been uplifted, and some flowers and plants such as henna and soup flowers are planted in it, but they are now withered.

This henna is a favorite of beauty-loving women, and she can use it to dye her nails, and Xu Ying has also dyed it before.

In the corner of the wall is a toilet, which Dad Xu built by himself, because there are few people, and there is no distinction between men and women, people who want to go to the toilet will cough in the past, and go in directly without movement.

There is a well not far from the toilet, which is the kind of pressure, the kind that can produce water when pressed.

Next to the well is a vegetable cellar in which the sweet potatoes and cabbage eaten by the Xu family are stored.

Further on there is a big manure pit.

There is no chicken coop, because the Xu family's chickens are resting on a jujube tree in the courtyard.

As for the manure they pull, leftover meals at home, fallen leaves and other debris on the ground, they will be swept into the manure pit, so that it will be soaked for one year, and the next year is an excellent fertilizer. Xu Chen would use a rack cart to pull it into the crop field to fertilize the field.

Xu Ying's mind kept flashing memories of her previous home.

The yard was no different from the time she had been away from home.

"What is this?"

Liu Mingda asked, pointing to the dung pit in the yard.

It was dark when he arrived yesterday, and he didn't take a closer look at Xu Ying's yard, but now he saw that it was full of agricultural interest, which was somewhat similar to the forest farm in Heibei, but there were many differences.

"The manhole pit."

Xu Ying replied to him.

"The manure pit? Why do you want to get the manure pit in the yard? ”

Liu Mingda was a little puzzled, isn't there a smell in the yard? The smell isn't very big, but it's not pleasant to smell.

"Where? Except for the yard, there is no place to put it, we don't have a backyard here, and the backyard is someone else's yard, so it can only be placed in the yard. The taste is definitely a little. But it's like this in every family. If you get used to it, you can't smell it. ”

Xu Ying knew what Liu Mingda meant, but rural people really didn't pay attention to it, and in summer, they often ate in the yard with a bowl. Some people squatted on the edge of the manure pit. There's nothing to worry about.

But in another decade or so. When the countryside develops and the yard becomes a concrete floor, there will be no more of these. It's hard to see a manure pit in the yard anymore.

"It's different."

Liu Mingda sighed, there are too many differences between this side and theirs.

"Okay, you go talk to Xiaowei and Xiaohui, and I'll go cook with our mother."

Xu Ying made Liu Mingda and his younger brother feel affectionate.

She went into the stove house.

The stove house at home is not as good as the kitchen of the Liu family.

The stove house at home is a small house, which looks very old and is very dark with smoke inside.

Xu Ying walked over, and Qiu Meihua was cooking porridge.

"Why don't you sleep more? What are you doing when it's so cold? ”

Qiu Meihua is a little strange, usually the girl is reluctant to get up if she doesn't sleep until ten o'clock at home.

"Sleep well."

Xu Ying said and filled the pot with two corn cobs.

Now they are all burning, and they haven't started to use briquettes, let alone gas.

There is little firewood here, except for corn stalks, corn cobs, corn leaves, wheat stalks, bean stalks, etc., anyway, as long as they can burn.

"This married man has become more diligent, is your mother-in-law okay with you? You don't know how to cook and say didn't say you? Have you learned it now? ”

Qiu Meihua asked while stirring the pot.

"Yes, my mother-in-law is busy with work every day, so I learned to cook, and now I am doing quite well."

Xu Ying's heart was sour, when she was at home, she had a grandmother when she was a child, and she didn't use anything by herself, and when she was older, she studied at school again, and her mother was reluctant to use herself when she came back, so she didn't do housework when she married into the Liu family, and everything was learned later.

"That's good, if you get married, you have to be diligent, we are far away, even if you quarrel with Mingda, you can't even go back to your mother's house, no one is in charge of you, if your mother-in-law dislikes you, it is you who suffers, you are diligent, your mother-in-law likes it, and you are not angry, so you will not be offended."

Qiu Meihua persuaded her daughter.

"I know, don't worry, Mom."

Xu Ying nodded, everyone who is an old man hopes that their children will be good, how can her mother not worry about marrying so far away.

"Did your mother-in-law and Mingda help you find a job, you also read a lot, you can't find a good one, find a general job, you can't rest at home all the time, if you don't make money, the family should have opinions after a long time, no matter what you do, it's better than resting."

Qiu Meihua didn't know about Xu Ying's opening of a hotel. I thought my daughter didn't have a job yet.

"Hmm."

Xu Ying nodded.

At this time, Xu Chen came back from shopping.

Xu Ying took the basket, which contained a piece of meat, a piece of tofu, and a few knots of lotus root.

Xu Chen was also carrying a lunch box, which contained spicy soup.

"Hurry up and drink it, it's still hot, I let him put less tofu brain, you don't like to drink brains."

Xu Chen poured out the spicy soup as he spoke.

Xu Ying looked at her father's somewhat red nose, her heart was full of warmth, and she took a hot sip of the bowl.

She stuck her tongue out when it was hot.

"Look at what you're gluttonous, it's not like you haven't drunk it."

Qiu Meihua said with a smile beside her.

Xu Ying also laughed, this thing is not expensive, but she likes it, the taste of her hometown is always unforgettable.

"Drink, drink, drink less, I burned you sweet potato porridge."

Qiu Meihua complained in her mouth, but her eyes were full of love.

"Mom is the best."

In addition to drinking spicy soup, Xu Ying also loves sweet potatoes, sweet potato porridge, and also loves to eat fried cold skin, fried cold noodles, and meat buns from her hometown, but these snacks are not eaten in a day, and she can eat them slowly during this time when she comes back.

After drinking the spicy soup, the porridge will be fine. Xu Ying didn't let her mother stir-fry, she took it.

Fried a plate of tofu, the tofu was fried golden brown, and a layer of green green onions was sprinkled on top, which looked quite good.

She fried a hot and sour lotus root again, which was sour and spicy, and this one went down to dinner.

The eggs were spread out into an omelet, which was brown in color and smelled fragrant.

In addition, she also fried a plate of Chinese cabbage.

The four dishes are alive together.

"It's really good, better than me."

Qiu Meihua is a little incredible, her daughter has only studied for a few days, and she is better than herself. It seems that I am really not lazy in my in-law's house. (To be continued......)
