Chapter 13: Returning Home
"Ah~"
"Dad, we're finally done."
Zhuang Zihao put down the bucket he was carrying, threw away the melon scoop in his hand, stretched his waist, and shouted loudly.
"Well, let's get ready to go home, it's almost noon."
The eldest patriarch Zhuang Yi looked at the position of the sun, lowered his head and began to pack up the farm tools, ready to go home.
Zhuang Zihao saw that his father was cleaning up, and he hurriedly picked up the melon scoop that he had just thrown away, and brought his three small wooden barrels with him, and followed his father who had already packed up his things out of the wheat field!
"Lao Zhuang, are you going home after work?"
"Yo, Lao Zhuang, it's fast enough today!"
"It seems that Xiao Hao is helping today..."
"That's the father and son working together, isn't this work faster!"
"Say what?"
"I'm not going to work soon, my father and son are busy going home, and there are not as many people in our family as they are working as fast as their grandfather."
"Ouch, I'm going to finish it soon."
"Hehe, look at how many of you still have, the sun is getting more and more vicious, I can go home and hug my mother-in-law......"
"Go, go~"
"I think about your daughter-in-law all day long, is there any man left! Look at what your daughter-in-law is used to by you. ”
"The cloth jewelry, we can see that we all feel sorry for you."
"Hmph, what's that, my mother-in-law likes it, then buy it! It's not that the family can't eat, the mother-in-law has a little hobby, of course, I have to support it, and isn't it just to buy some fabric jewelry, the fabric is bought back, not still to make clothes, and the jewelry, silver is not the same as putting home, this is bought into jewelry, my family can meet my daughter-in-law, and you can exchange it for silver if you don't have money. How nice! ”
"What's more, even if my mother-in-law is really a loser, that's my business, and my mother-in-law is just spoiled by me. Hey! ”
“…………”
“…………”
The men working in the wheat fields were talking.
……
"Mother, my son is back~"
Zhuang Zihao ran into his yard with his wooden barrel.
"Zihao is back~"
"I heard your third sister come back and say, did you do a good job for your father today?"
"Uh-huh! I've done a lot of work today, pulling weeds, carrying water, watering......"
"Mother, my son is hungry~"
Zhuang Zihao took his mother's arm and looked at his mother with glowing eyes.
"Goo~"
"Goo~"
As soon as Zhuang Zihao's words fell, his little belly also sounded as if it were in response......
"Yo, I'm really hungry, come, my mother touches it, see if I'm hungry."
Su Huiniang smiled and was about to reach out to touch her son's little belly.
Zhuang Zihao hurriedly dodged his mother's hands full of malice.
"Mother, you bully your son, woo woo~"
"Okay, son, don't cry, your sister has boiled hot water for you, go wash it!"
"Look at the dirty on your body, go wash it, change your clothes, and my mother will wash it for you in a while!"
"Okay, mother, I'll take a bath first, it's okay if you don't mention it, just say this, and your body will be uncomfortable."
"Little brother, the bath sister has already redeemed it for you, you just took a change of clothes and washed it!"
The third sister who helped in the kitchen looked at her younger brother who was about to go back to the room and shouted.
"Got it, third sister!"
"I'm going to get my clothes and take a shower first, it's so uncomfortable!"
Zhuang Zihao scratched the place under his neck, rushed into the room, took a change of clothes and went to take a bath.
"Hmm~"
"It's so comfortable, it's finally less itchy!"
"This work in the field is hard......"
"I still have to make money quickly, I don't want to work in the fields all my life to earn silver, this day is really uncomfortable."
"The wheat harvest will be in a few days, and this is really a happy and uncomfortable thing......
"The happy thing is that there is food again, and the pain is that the body is uncomfortable again......"
"Is my little brother washed..."
"It's going to be right away!"
"Well, come out after washing, Daddy is back......"
The shouts of the third sister came from outside, and Zhuang Zihao didn't think much about it, wiped the water off his body with a bath towel for bathing, and changed into a set of clean clothes and went out.
"Is this all washed?"
"Wash it, third sister."
"Dad, you should also clean it first, the little brother has already washed it here!"
"Okay, Daddy will be here in a moment."
Zhuang Yi, who was talking to Su Huiniang, turned his head and looked at his little daughter who was shouting to him.
"Little brother, you should go back to your room first, my sister found you a bottle of ointment, it is to relieve itching and swelling, you go and wipe all the red and swollen places on your body, otherwise you will be uncomfortable in a while!"
Looking at the third sister who suddenly became enthusiastic, Zhuang Zihao felt a little surprised. Is it going to rain red from the sky?
"Third sister, what's wrong with you?"
"What's wrong?"
"No, it's fine!"
Zhuang Zihao took advantage of the fact that his third sister had not come back to his senses and hurriedly ran to the room.
"It's strange, what's wrong with my little brother, no one is picking him up, what are you doing running so fast?"
"Little sister, come on."
The second sister, Zhuang Yunqi, was shouting in the kitchen and was still thinking about something.
Zhuang Yunwei came back to her senses and went to the kitchen.
"Second sister, what's wrong?"
"Well, this dish is almost ready, you go and take the dishes and chopsticks to the table outside and set them up, and this meal will be held for a while. My eldest sister and I are almost ready. ”
"Okay, second sister, if there is nothing else to do, I'll go and get busy first?"
"Go ahead!"
"Second sister, go to the backyard and get some shallots, I'm gone here."
The eldest sister, who was cutting the ingredients, looked at the insufficient shallots and said to the second sister.
"Got it, big sister, I'll go now."
Zhuang Yunqi didn't wait for the eldest sister to respond, so she walked quickly to the backyard, where many kinds of vegetables were planted, such as some small ingredients, which can also be seen in the backyard.
There are also several fruit trees planted in the backyard, some of which have been there for a long time before, and some of which have been found by the younger brother recently in the back mountain, so there should be a lot of variety.
There are peach trees, apples, pears, grapefruits, persimmons, loquats, plums, small yellow apricots. A vine was also planted in the front yard.
I know how many years the vines in the front yard have been planted, but I know that they have been there for as long as I can remember.
Dad made a shelf for the grapes, and the vines of the grapes climbed all over the shelf, and every year there were many large purple grapes, which I liked to eat, sweet and sour.
Zhuang Yunqi walked to the vegetable field to plant shallots, squatted down and pulled out a few, and went back to the kitchen with the pulled onions.
When she returned to the kitchen, she first cleaned the shallots before giving them to the eldest sister for later use.
"I'm back, there's still a braised fish lunch ready to be made, second sister, you go and tell your mother that you're going to eat for a while."
"Okay, is there anything else that the eldest sister would like me to help with?"
"Well, I let my little sister serve the dishes, then, you told my mother to come back and help me watch the fire."
"Okay, eldest sister, I'll go find my mother first."
In the main house of the dealer
"Father of the child, you have worked hard, there are more and more fields in this family, but you are the only one who works here, and there are several people in other families who are fathers and sons, and there are many boys in our family, but ......"
"Alas, I don't know what happened to Rui'er?"
"Okay, don't think about it, our children are so clever, what can happen!"
"Yes, our children are smart! What could happen! ”
Su Huiniang comforted herself. looked at Xiang Gong's red and swollen shoulders that were grinded by the flat shoulder, and he was very distressed.
"Ah Yi, why don't you let me help you too, if I can help you do something, you can do less."
"Hui Niang, you have to believe your man, how can it be difficult for me to get this little farm work, you, take care of the family at home, just teach your daughters, you don't have to worry about the work in the field."
"Woo woo woo~"
"Ah Yi, I've wronged you~"
"What is there to be wronged about, can our family be fine, and don't have to worry about those big things, I am also very happy now."
Zhuang Yi hugged his wife into his arms and patted his wife comfortingly.
"Dad, Mom, I'm ready to eat."
Zhuang Yunqi looked at the closed door and shouted loudly outside the door.
"Here ......
