"Sister, sister, we're back." The little sister saw the earthen tile house not far away, and ran over excitedly and shouted while running.

Qinghe Village is a good place with three mountains, two rivers and five fields, with many mountains and many rivers and fields. There are many mountains, many wastelands, and the homesteads of the people in the village are also large, and generally a family is almost more than 300 square meters.

That's because every household generally raises some livestock such as chickens, ducks, and pigs, and the average farmer is self-sufficient, and almost every family will open a small vegetable garden in the yard for their daily life.

In addition, there will be some fruit trees planted in the yard, and the area to be occupied will naturally be larger. For example, his yard is planted with elm trees, plum trees, persimmon trees, pomegranate trees, pear trees and jujube trees, and the women in the family are all diligent people, and they also set up a special shelf to plant some vine crops such as grapes, bitter gourds, and loofahs.

After all, it has only been a short time since the war, and the world has not yet recovered, if you wait for a few more decades, don't think about such a thing.

"You two little naughty eggs, you are still willing to come back, my meal is ready, grandpa and they are coming back soon, hurry up and wash the mud on your body and prepare for dinner!" The eldest sister leaned out of the kitchen and said.

"Sister, sister, there are fish and fish today, and there are red fruits." The little sister said excitedly to the eldest sister, and then she was going to grab the things in Xie Yanqing's hand and show them to the eldest sister.

"Little sister, don't move, wait for me to put things on the ground." Xie Yanqing was already holding a lot of things such as fishing nets, fishing baskets, and peaches, but under the pull of his little sister, everything was almost dropped, and he dared to speak out hurriedly.

"Little sister, don't move, let the stone put things down, you really caught a fish today, just right, I cooked it tonight." The eldest sister walked out of the kitchen and smiled happily at the fish in the fishing basket.

The eldest sister is 8 years old this year, and she is a good helper at this age in the farmhouse, and it is her job to cook and wash dishes at home.

In fact, this is quite good in the village, after all, she was not allowed to work in the fields, and most of the girls in the village had to work in the fields and cook or something when they were her age, and the girls in ancient times were always not so valued.

Xie Yanqing thought about the miserable life of women in ancient times, but she was actually glad that she had become a man in this life, and in ancient times, girls seemed to have no other use except for work.

When you are at home, if you have good parents, it will be easier, but if you meet bad parents, it is the most normal situation to work and eat the least, because they will think that the girl will raise her so big and give her a dowry to marry her off, and if she marries out, she will not be a member of her own family.

And the girls in Xie Yanqing's family are much better than other girls in the village, after all, the family conditions are better, plus Xie Yanqing has been brainwashed from time to time over the years.

Usually when his grandmother is scolding her sister for "losing money and goods, sooner or later she will go to someone else's house, eat me, use mine, and don't work for me well", he will pretend to be ignorant and ask "Why does my sister go to someone else's house?" Her grandmother would reply, "She is going to marry someone else in the future, and she will no longer be a member of our family, and you are different from the stone, so they have to work more, and it will cost us a lot of money to raise her so big." "Then something happened to our family, will my sister help us?" "How dare she help," her grandmother almost jumped up when she heard this. "If someone treats me badly and something happens to him, I don't want to help." Xie Yanqing muttered.

After many times, Lao Li also became cautious, and finally stopped scolding his sister from time to time, and treated the girls in the family better.

Xie Yanqing carefully washed the dirt on his body before picking up his bamboo tube and filling it in the kitchen to drink boiling water, which he usually drank boiled water.

Because there is a river in the village, and the water quality is good, basically no one in the village drills a well, and drinks the water in the river directly, but Xie Yanqing really can't accept it, after all, he feels that the water in the river is still a little unclean, so he asked to drink boiled water at a very young age, and the family also knows that he doesn't drink water other than boiling water, so the family often has cold boiled water.
