Soon after Xie Yanqing drank the water, his grandfather and the others also returned from the field.

"Dayong, you take the cow back to the cowshed," his grandfather Xie Mancang ordered. His third uncle Xie Dayong obediently led the cow to the cowshed, the cow is their baby, it is an important labor force when the farm is busy, otherwise they don't know when they will harvest so many acres of land.

After all, their family has 32 acres of paddy fields and 15 acres of dry fields. "My little good grandson, do you miss me?"

Saying that, his grandfather was going to come and hug him. "The stone has just been washed white, and grandpa is dirty, so wash it and then hug it." Xie Yanqing said in a milky voice.

"My good grandson actually dislikes your grandfather, an old man." Xie Mancang said funny.

"You old naughty boy, hurry up and wash your body before hugging my good grandson." Old Li said with a smile on the side.

Everyone in the family also knows that Xie Yanqing loves to be clean, and never leaves snot or anything on his face, even if he plays crazy outside with other children, the other children have become mud monkeys, and his clothes are clean every time, even if he washes his hands outside and goes home, he still has to wash his hands again, not like a rural boy at all.

So the family usually doesn't hug him when he has mud on his body, but his grandfather always likes to tease him.

The eldest sister, the younger Li family, and the Chen family began to bring out a basin-sized meal from the kitchen, and the food was placed on the dining table, and the old Li began to divide the meal.

The peasant family does a lot of physical work a day, and the amount of food is particularly large, so they eat a lot, and now they are busy with farming, and every household will make enough food, after all, people must be full of food to have the strength to do work.

In the basin there are sweet potato rice, potato stewed cabbage, tomato egg soup, and loofah soup, bitter gourd fried meat and a plate of fried red bacon, all of which are big pots and big pots, and this is their family's lunch.

Yes, their family has a separate meal system, according to his grandmother, if they don't divide the good meals, they will all rush to grab them, so it's not true, and there may be some people who can't grab the food without eating every meal.

In fact, many families in the countryside are like this now, after all, there are not many people who are separated now, and each family is a big family, and it is indeed not the case that so many people rush to eat at the table without dividing good meals. Looking at the meat in the bowl, Xie Yanqing knew that this was his grandmother's preference for him.

"The stone caught 2 big fish and 4 small fish today, and we have fish to eat tonight." The eldest sister was eating and talking about Xie Yanqing's great achievements today. "And the red fruit." Xiaomei added on the side.

"What kind of red fruit?" Aunt Xie Yanqing asked. The girl from the second aunt's family is one and a half years old this year, and the family is busy with farming and has no time to take care of her, so she sent it to her grandmother's house, and now it has been 2 days, so there are 3 children in the big house, and the adults love to tease them.

"It's peaches, the fruit of those wild peach trees in the village is ripe." Xie Yanqing said. "The stone is very powerful, I actually caught so many fish today." Third Uncle Xie Dayong said, after all, fish are still very difficult to catch, and an adult may not be able to catch so many fish.

That's because he was willing to use steamed buns as bait, Xie Yanqing said in his heart.

Because of his grandmother's preference, he can get a white flour steamed bun and egg custard for breakfast every morning, which no one has.

In fact, now the white-flour steamed bun farmer family is very rarely eaten, generally mixed with some black noodles or something, in his previous life he heard that steamed bread can be used as bait for fish, today he secretly left some steamed bread just to be able to catch some fish, fortunately did not disappoint him, he is also very reluctant to the white-flour steamed bread, after all, it is his ration.

"Yes, yes, my grandson is amazing" Xie Mancang heard the praise of his grandson's smile without his teeth, and his face was faceless. Everyone in the family praised Xie Yanqing before they started to eat again.

"By the way, eldest sister, you take your younger brothers and sisters to the peach tree in the village with a basket this afternoon to pick some peaches, and the peaches should not be noticed when they are ripe."

Grandpa Xie Mancang said while eating, peaches are also a good snack, especially now when the fruit trees at home are not yet ripe and there is nothing to eat at home.

"Okay, grandpa." The eldest sister replied crisply. She readily agreed to this kind of thing, because she always had to do things at home and had little chance to go out to play, and now even going out to pick peaches made her yearn for it.
