When they arrived in the middle of Shen Shi, He Shigui and He Dashan father and son drove the ox cart and pulled the two halves of the door panel up the hillside.

Li Ziyu, who had been paying attention to the door, hurriedly greeted him, opened the fence gate, and thanked him sincerely: "Uncle Gui, Brother Dashan, are you here?" I really don't know what to say about it, I really can only say thank you. ”

He Shigui smiled: "What's the trouble?" Shouldn't that be? Who called me your uncle, didn't you? ”

He Dashan also smiled and helped his father lift the door panel down, and put the door panel down flat.

Li Ziyu hurriedly went to the house, and said as she said: "Uncle Gui, Brother Dashan, I made dumplings today, and I also called Grandpa Zhao, have a meal at my house today, go to the house and stay in the house, the house is warm." ”

As he was talking, Zhao Qing, Xiaoshan, and Xiaowen also came out of the house, and He Shigui greeted Zhao Qing: "Uncle Zhao is there?" I've been waiting for you. He Dashan also called "Grandpa Zhao", and Xiaoshan and Xiaowen greeted He Shigui and He Dashan: "Uncle Gui! Brother Dashan! Aunt Yang also laughed happily, and several people laughed and entered the Westinghouse.

In the hall, Li Ziyu and Aunt Yang sped up the speed of making dumplings. After a while, the two of them were wrapped.

The pot had already been filled with water, and Aunt Yang squatted in front of the stove to light the fire.

Li Ziyu prepared two whole dishes, one is the tip of the cabbage leaf and liver, in fact, it is not suitable to boil, it is fried directly, after all, there is no starch or anything. The second dish is stir-fried shredded radish. I bought oil today, and the dishes can be fragrant without seasonings.

The two of them were busy all the time, and soon the dumplings were on the table.

Li Ziyu first asked Xiaoshan to send dumplings to Zhao Qing's family, and made two bowls with a clean cloth, and asked Grandma Zhao to have a bowl and Xiaohua's family to have a bowl. He also asked him to borrow two wooden stools from Aunt Yang's house when he came back, and then let him go. asked Xiaowen to send a bowl to Aunt Yang's house, and still asked him to borrow two wooden stools from Aunt Yang's house. Aunt Yang didn't let her send it, and Li Ziyu insisted on sending a big bowl. Aunt Yang thought about it or the dumplings she ate for the New Year, and the head of the family and the two children couldn't figure out how to be greedy, so she didn't insist.

Li Ziyu and Aunt Yang were busy bringing the two dishes to the table.

This meal is divided into two tables, one table is the old square table on the floor of the house, with four stools borrowed from Aunt Yang's house, Zhao Qing, He Shigui, He Dashan and Xiaoshan. The second table is on the kang, if there is no table, they eat on the kang, Aunt Yang and Li Ziyu are five sisters and brothers. A few days ago, Li Ziyu bought new chopsticks and bowls, so that she would not borrow them again.

Li Ziyu stood apologetically in front of the table: "Grandpa Zhao! Uncle Gui! Brother Dashan, you also know this condition in our family, anyway, you are not outsiders, I won't say thank you, eat more dumplings and vegetables. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to invite Zhao Qing, He Shigui and He Dashan, who were sitting on the edge of the kang, to take a seat, and Xiaoshan also respectfully accompanied him to sit on the last seat.

The four of them sat down, and Zhao Qing said with emotion: "They are all good children!" This is the first good meal since your parents died, right? You have invited us, well, good boy, and we will be successful in the future. ”

He Shigui also continued: "Yes, I have traveled to many places and met all kinds of people, there are really not many children who are so sensible and reasonable, good boy!" ”

"Where is the grandfather and uncle who say it is so good?" Li Ziyu hurriedly said humbly, "We should be grateful to our grandfathers and uncles, without you, our sisters would have been a few years ago."

"Okay, okay, let's have a dumpling, let's eat." Aunt Yang quickly interrupted Li Ziyu's words, "Don't say these sad words in the future, the days will get better and better, eat and eat, I'm hungry." As he spoke, he put a dumpling in his mouth, and his eyes immediately widened, "Wow, it's so fragrant!" ”

The crowd couldn't help but laugh, and they began to eat.

Li Ziyu fed the two small ones while eating, and looked at Xiao Wu from time to time, and persuaded Aunt Yang to eat more. The other table still exchanged a few words at the beginning, and when they had eaten, they couldn't talk anymore, and only ate with their heads bored. This meal was enjoyed by the guests and the hosts, and everyone was full of laughter.

Zhao Qing stayed for a while after eating, and told him to go back to him if there was anything in the future, and everyone sent him to the gate of the hospital.

Aunt Yang helped Li Ziyu scrub the pots and bowls, and after sending Zhao Qing away, she also said goodbye and left. Li Ziyu knew that she was worried about her family, so she didn't keep her.

After He Shigui and his son sent Zhao Qing away, they began to dismantle the fence gate and pile the broken wood aside. Just wanted to install the gate, Li Ziyu walked over with the copper lock he bought: "Uncle Gui, you can put the lock on the gate for me first, and then you will be safe." ”

"Huh? Where did you buy this copper lock? Not bad," He Shigui took the copper lock and praised again and again, "It can be used for one or two decades, and it will cost a lot of money, right?" ”

"Well, it's a good amount of money." Li Ziyu confirmed on the side.

He Shigui and He Dashan drew a good line on the gate and secured the copper lock. And he put up the gates, and put them on both sides of the gates, and when the two sides were tightly closed, the gates were secured.

After Li Ziyu waited for them to secure the door, she invited them into the house to sit down. He Shigui saw that Li Ziyu seemed to have something to say, so he followed him into the house.

Li Ziyu invited him to sit on the kang and said his plan.

Li Ziyu planned to build six wooden stools, five wooden boxes, and a kang table. The wooden stool and the kang table He Shigui knew that her family was lacking this good understanding, and he didn't understand what this wooden box was for.

Li Ziyu gestured with his hand and explained: "Uncle Gui, in this way, the wooden box should be so long, what do you say?" "I don't have a ruler in my hand, it's really hard to say. After thinking about it, he went to the stove and picked up a blackened wooden stick, and drew an approximate size on the floor of the house.

He Shigui understood but was even more puzzled: "Girl, wow, what is this for?" ”

Li Ziyu smiled hesitantly, and didn't explain: "Uncle Gui, in this way, you make me five such boxes and build a kang table." Six stools I would like to hit with a back and armrests next to them. In this way, Xiaohu and Xiaolan don't have to worry about falling down when they eat. ”

"Oh, you're talking about chairs, right?" He Shigui understood as soon as he heard it. In the village, it is generally this kind of small stool. Only in large households do they sit on that kind of chair.

"Yes, I'm just afraid that Xiaohu and Xiaolan will fall off after eating, aren't they still young." Li Ziyu explained.

"Okay, that's it, I've been fine lately anyway, so I'll make it for you." He Shigui stood up as he spoke, ready to leave.

Li Ziyu hurriedly took out the broken silver from his arms and said, "Uncle Gui, don't be busy leaving, you should calculate how much money you should spend first?" ”

"That's three hundred and fifty." He Shigui looked at the silver in Li Ziyu's hand, and then thought of today's dumplings, knowing what adventures Li Ziyu had, he set the price according to the usual algorithm. After all, he also has a large family to support, and he can't always keep less money.

Li Ziyu happily gave the silver, and He Shigui's father and son immediately said goodbye and left.

After sending all the people away, Li Ziyu carefully plugged in the gate, and then looked around the courtyard wall, which gave him a sense of security. This fir door has a simple appearance, strong and durable, and the surface is brushed with a layer of clear oil, not afraid of wind and rain, this home is really safe.

Li Ziyu looked at the younger brothers and sisters with different expressions, and let out a shout: "┗|'O′|┛嗷~~, I can finally sleep soundly!" After shouting, he rushed to his younger siblings and hugged them tightly in his arms.

So, a few small people led by Xiao Wu also shouted loudly, and the infected Xiaoshan and Xiaowen also laughed loudly. For a while, the sisters hugged each other, and the yard was full of joy. The sound of cheerful laughter echoed in the mountains near dusk, causing a long echo. Many years later, Xiaowen is in a high position and enjoys the prosperity of Kyoto, but he will never forget today's heartfelt laughter.

Li Ziyu hugged her younger siblings back to the West House and lit candles, and the siblings were not sleepy. Li Ziyu sat on the kang, next to three small ones surrounding her, a little farther away, sitting Xiaoshan and Xiaowen. Since they couldn't sleep, she thought, let's tell them a story. So, he cleared his throat and said, "Sister, I'll tell you a story." ”

A few small ones had never heard the story before, and hurriedly responded positively. Li Ziyu told a story of "the little rabbit is obedient". The rabbit mother in the forest has three children, so in Li Ziyu's story, in Li Ziyu's low and gentle voice, a few little ones fell asleep.

Li Ziyu put the three small ones in turn, covered them with quilts, and watched them sleep in a cute manner, her heart was full of warmth. As soon as he turned around, he saw Xiaoshan and Xiaowen looking at her and stopped, so he took out his purse from his arms with a smile, and said in a low voice: "Count and see how much silver we have in our house." ”

Xiaoshan and Xiaowen took the purse suspiciously, and were stunned when they poured out the silver inside, how much silver did they get in this pile!

The two of them hurriedly counted several times before they confirmed the amount of silver, two hundred and three taels and two wen.

The two looked at her in disbelief, all stupid, wooden, just no surprises.

Li Ziyu looked at them strangely a few times and said, "I plan"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xiaoshan, and there was a slight tremor in his tone: "Sister, why is this so much money?" No, I mean, where did the fight come from? It's going to be okay, right? ”

Xiaowen's face turned pale with worry, and he sat down beside Li Ziyu suddenly, holding his sister's hand tightly, but did not speak. Li Ziyu felt the sweat in Xiaowen's palms and the trembling of his hands, and hurriedly stretched out an arm to wrap his arms around him, feeling a little sorry in his heart. It's all her fault, she wants to surprise her younger brothers, but as a result, she was not happy, but she was surprised.

Li Ziyu solemnly looked at the two younger brothers and said, "Where do you want to go, this is the silver exchanged for my mind, it is absolutely legitimate and legal, you can rest assured." ”

Xiaoshan subconsciously repeated: "Mind? Puzzled, he turned to the answer.

Xiaowen thought for a while before asking, "Sister, is it the ability you said last time?" ”

Li Ziyu nodded affirmatively.

Xiaoshan suddenly realized and laughed with relief.

Li Ziyu looked at the ignorant appearance of her younger brothers and sighed in her heart. No, my brothers have to go to school. The second brother is ten years old after the New Year, and the third brother is also eight years old, so you can't always drag it like this, it's a terrible thing to have no knowledge.
