Chapter 150: Adopted Children
When the children went to take a bath, Cao Yan asked people to set up more than 30 cauldrons on the big cement lawn and cook rice.
There are also people who have killed three pigs and are processing their furs.
The pigs are very large, almost each of them weighs about 300 catties, these pigs were raised in the village before, and the pigs raised by Cao Yan in the new manor of Jiangning Mansion have not grown up yet.
And there are people by the canal who are washing other vegetables.
Cao Yan is surrounded by one hundred and eighty-four children, these children are the children of Lin Jiazhai in the past, they have studied with Cao Yan for several months, in ancient times, the average life expectancy in the middle of the dynasty may be more than forty years old, like the front of the dynasty, and the later period is basically more than thirty years old, so the proportion of children has always been very high, like Lin Jiazhai The population under the age of sixteen or seventeen accounts for almost one-third.
Now Cao Yan is instructing them, "The three of you are divided into a group, divided into a squad leader, and two deputy squad leaders, remember to match them reasonably." ”
"Yes," the children replied, and began to look for their friends or partners who usually partnered with them.
Cao Yan stood aside and did not interfere with their actions.
These children can only say that they were taught well by Cao Yan before, especially in the previous robbery and games, they were often grouped, so to speak, as soon as Cao Yan's words fell, they were almost separated, after all, when they surrounded Cao Yan, they were also divided according to the good or bad relationship.
Although there were more than 180 children, there were only 41 groups in total, because some of the children were under the age of three, and they could only be counted as add-ons to join the groups of three.
Cao Yan was very satisfied, the performance of these children, after everyone reported the number of groups to Cao Yan.
Cao Yan continued: "Wait for these new children, I will divide them into forty-one groups, and in the future, I will rely on you to teach them their learning every day when the farm is slack, no problem, right?" ”
"No problem!" Lin Bibi stood at the front and shouted, it was not a day or two that she wanted to be a teacher, especially Cao Yan's dragging movements, she was the best one to learn, she had been waiting for such a day to let herself be dragged from beginning to end.
Then the others agreed.
Cao Yan smiled at everyone: "Then thank you." ”
The children also laughed along with Cao Yan, and their eyes were full of yearning like Lin Bibi.
At this moment, suddenly in the place where the clothes were burned, the sound of a quarrel was heard.
Cao Yan heard the voice, and with doubts, he led his group of small minions over.
"Third aunt, what's the matter?" Cao Yan asked the aunt who was scolding.
"Auntie, this little girl is a little ignorant, didn't you say that you are afraid that those old clothes, with fleas and the like, will bite them and let them burn? But this girl, holding this dress, refuses to let go, if it weren't for watching her being accepted as a righteous daughter by her uncle, we would still be so polite to her! The third aunt said angrily.
This made Cao Yan a little glad of her previous decision, otherwise this girl was going to be beaten, and it was not comfortable to be beaten by these aunts, and many people in this Lin family village were not light.
Cao Yan smiled at the third aunt: "Third aunt, you dissipate your anger," and then looked at the girl who was twelve or three years old, and asked, "Why don't you let the old clothes be burned?" ”
When the girl saw Cao Yan, she knelt down without warning, and kowtowed several times in a row.
All this happened so fast that Cao Yan was a little too late to stop it, he frowned, asked a girl to go over and help her up, and comforted her softly: "No need to do this, just say what you have a problem with." ”
"This was the last dress my mother helped me make when she was alive." The girl clutched the clothes in her arms and cried.
Cao Yan sighed secretly and shook his head, he still hadn't thought it through.
"I'm sorry, it's my fault, oh! By the way, if you still don't want to burn your clothes, you can tell me together, as long as you wash them yourself. Cao Yan said to the surroundings, and then said to the third aunt, and said with a smile: "Third aunt, I'm sorry, please bring some soap, let them wash the clothes themselves, and don't burn them if they don't want to." ”
"It's still the eldest aunt who is soft-hearted, these people can be regarded as lucky." The third aunt saw that Cao Yan was so polite, and she didn't shirk it, muttered, and went to get soap.
……
There is no need for Cao Yan to worry about dividing people, Lin Bibi and them are very easy to divide people.
Cao Yan sat on the big cement lawn, his exclusive seat on the rostrum, looking at the busy people everywhere, as well as the children who were still a little embarrassed.
The smell of food began to fill the air.
Many children watched the food being cooked from afar and swallowed.
Here, Limbby and the others have already lined up the new kids.
Then they handed them dishes and chopsticks and told them what to do next.
This made Cao Yan very pleased, unconsciously he had been in this world for four months, although he had not changed enough in this world, but he had planted seeds, these things were like a kind of inheritance, and they would grow stronger and stronger.
When Cao Yan was in a daze, a bowl of steaming food was suddenly placed in front of him.
woke Cao Yan up, and along the slender hands that put the bowl, he saw the girl just now, and there were several children behind the girl who were also holding the bowl and putting it on the table here.
"Father-in-law, please eat first." The girl was a blessing, bowed to Cao Yan Yingying, and said.
"Father-in-law, please ......eat first," the other children saluted, saying.
Cao Yan felt that the corners of his eyes were a little moist, he reluctantly showed a smile, and then smiled at the children around him: "I have already eaten, you can eat it yourself." "The time is around four o'clock in the afternoon, and when Cao Yan went to Luo Fatzi's house before, he stayed at his house for dinner.
And these children, Cao Yan didn't know if they had eaten in Yaxing, how they ate, whether they were full or not, they just felt that they had brought them back and walked so far, they should be hungry, so they called the people in the village to help them cook for them, but they didn't expect that when they saw that they were sitting here and didn't go to eat, they actually brought their own food to themselves to eat, how could Cao Yan not be moved.
After Cao Yan said that he had eaten, these children took the dishes and chopsticks again and ate carefully.
Watching them eat, chewing slowly, looking extremely cherished, obviously unsatisfactory in eating before, this Cao Yan felt very painful, he secretly swore that the people of this era are too bitter, and he must do something for this era!
