"Mother, let's take our time in the back, you go to the noodles first, divide labor and cooperate, wait for the noodles to be reconciled, when the noodles wake up over there, this side should almost be able to explode, it's a turn, the time is just right."

"child, wait a moment and knead the dough and call me, I have more strength, hurry up." Invisible man Ji Daddy said.

also found an excuse, but who doesn't know that he feels sorry for his mother-in-law, as long as he has time, he has always done the dirty work at home.

The three of them looked at each other, and they couldn't help but laugh.

The work that was expected to be done in one day turned out to be four people, and the burnt leaves and sweet potato chips were fried in half a day.

Lunch, braised carp, stewed pheasant with mushrooms, a stir-fried lettuce and dried sweet potato rice, Peaches knew that her sister-in-law's family had a good life, but she never thought that she would live so well.

"Peach, hurry up and eat it! You're welcome at my sister-in-law's house. Ji Lao Niang beckoned Peaches to sit down.

"Mother, do you have anything else to do in the afternoon?" Since it was over in half a day, Wormwood began to have a little idea in her heart.

"It's okay, what's wrong? I'm not in a hurry, I'll prepare some when I have time, I'm only going to fry these two things today, and I'll do it again when I'm free in a few days, anyway, it's still early for the New Year! ”

"Then I'll go digging winter bamboo shoots with Sister Peach in the afternoon." Wormwood said as she looked at Peaches.

It's just that she has been eating violently all the time, and she didn't pay attention to hearing it......

"Sister?" Wormwood nudged her slightly.

"Huh? Uh~ Good!" Only then did Momoko react.

"Good what? It's up to you to eat, do you understand what they say? Sihu looked at her eating appearance and was a little sad, but he couldn't say good things in his mouth, so he couldn't help but scold.

"It's just digging bamboo shoots! I was originally going to find my little sister to dig bamboo shoots, of course there was no problem. Although she was taking care of the meal and not paying attention to their conversation, she could still remember it after a while.

"Okay, I'll go when I'm done...... Four tigers, are you going with us? ”

"No, don't go, I'm a boy following you, what's the matter?" Death is not going to die.

"That Four Tigers~ That's not right! Your thinking is absolutely wrong, who stipulates that boys and girls can't play together? The old stubborn one, let me tell you, you must change it well, or you will definitely be the master of patriarchy in the future. "Peaches is still used to looking for the stubble of the four tigers.

"That's ......" Sihu originally wanted to say a few more words, but was ruthlessly interrupted by Ji Lao Niang.

"Okay, after you finish eating, leave early, I'll wash the bowls, go early and come back early." can't endlessly scare back and forth, although there is no malice, but talking too much, it also hurts feelings, after all, it is a cousin, some can be avoided, or it is better to avoid.

After the meal, the four tigers said that they would not go if they didn't go, and went back to the house to practice; Peaches and wormwood didn't care about him, carrying a basket and a hoe, and set off into the bamboo forest mountain.

On the bamboo forest mountain, the dense and innumerable bamboos are of different thicknesses, some are as thick as the mouth of a bowl, and some are as thin as a pen.

If you want to dig bamboo shoots, you must first be able to find bamboo shoots, or do everything in vain. Don't look at their young age, Wormwood has been digging bamboo shoots behind peaches every year since she was six years old, and both of them are journeymen.

After entering the bamboo forest, the two separated slightly, each looking for the bamboo with dense branches and dark leaves; The darker the bamboo leaves, the more the bamboo shoots are the largest, and within a range of about three meters around this, you can find places where the clods are slightly raised, loose, and cracked, and there is a soft feeling when you step lightly on your feet, and there are nine times out of ten that there are bamboo shoots......

"Sister, I seem to have found one." Wormwood couldn't help but shout with joy so quickly.

Use a hoe to gently hoe a layer of soil to see how much ...... is exposed.

Luckily, the shape of the bamboo shoots is curved, and the bamboo shoot shells are dry and cracked and aged, so they will basically not be converted into spring bamboo shoots, and they will be broken directly with a hoe.

Of course, those with plump bases, developed roots, tender bamboo shoot shells and tightly wrapped bamboo shoots are the roots that must be retained in the coming year to transform into spring bamboo shoots, break the soil and bamboo, and promote the prosperity of the woodland.

"Sister, look, it's such a big one!" Wormwood held the bamboo shoot high and shouted at the peach in a conspicuous manner.

"I found one here, too." Momoko glanced up slightly, but she didn't have time to raise the bar with wormwood and continued her movements.

I don't know if it's because of the merits of wormwood, or because of this time period, no one came to dig bamboo shoots, but the luck of the two of them was bursting, and they both dug up bamboo shoots one after another.

"Sister~Sister~ Come here." Wormwood looked at the dead bamboo and called softly at the peach, but unfortunately it was too far away to respond.

Wormwood looked at the dead bamboo, and then looked in the direction of the peach, she was afraid that she couldn't handle it alone!

Forget it, no matter, it's yours that can't run away, and you can't get it if it's not yours, she took out her slingshot to prepare (in fact, the best is a crossbow arrow, but it's a bit overkill, and the crossbow box is not cheap, so I'm not willing to do it), first block the hole behind with stones, and then remove the dirt from the front hole, and aim the slingshot at the hole.

After a while, there was still no response, and after thinking for a while, I pulled some hay next to it, lit it and put it at the mouth of the hole......

"What are you doing?" It turned out that when Peaches was over there, she hadn't heard the movement of wormwood for a long time, and she was afraid that something would happen, so she hurried over to take a look.

"Bamboo rats." Wormwood didn't reply, she had already heard the sound of Peaches coming, but she was afraid of missing the bamboo rat, so she ignored it.

"Are there really bamboo rats?" When Peaches saw Xiaomei's series of actions, she also guessed it, but she was still a little incredulous - Xiaomei's luck is so good?

"Shh~"

"Squeak~squeak~" The bamboo rat quickly escaped from the hole, but it was just ......

"Bang~Bang~" or wormwood is fast-eyed, and when a stone is hit, the bamboo rat is instantly knocked down.

"Hehe, there are two, just one for each person." Wormwood picked up the bamboo rat on the ground.

Peaches didn't go up to help pick up the bamboo rats because of suspicion, but when she heard this, she hurriedly said: "No, no, this is what you hit alone, and I didn't help, how can I have my share!" ”

"It's okay, who is with whom! Besides, I should honor my grandmother and grandfather, anyway, you know, I want to eat meat now, it's still very convenient. ”

When Peaches heard this, she felt very uncomfortable, she knew that she had taken advantage of her little sister again, but her little sister had already said that she had already said that she couldn't help but take it, after all, it wasn't for her, it was just ......

Wormwood looked at her tangled look, and stuffed one directly into her back basket.

"Uh~ that little sister! Your master...... Uh~ Teach you skills, uh~ That~Uh~ Are there any conditions? Ai Ai finally finished asking, and said embarrassedly: "I'm just asking casually, you don't have to answer if it's inconvenient, it's okay." ”

Wormwood heard this, her eyes were blazing, and Peach's big eyes were open, and she didn't find any bad thoughts, it is estimated that it is so convenient to see her hunting, and she also wants to learn this skill.

"My master must have conditions, but I have been with her for a short time, what specific conditions are needed, I don't know, I will ask if I have the opportunity in the future, it really can't be done, see if I can, I will teach you then."

Peaches nodded frequently, there was nothing unwilling, she was already a little disappointed when she heard the previous paragraph, who knew that the peak would turn around, no matter when, she would finally have the opportunity to learn martial arts, and she was indeed as Wormwood thought, thinking that after learning it in the future, she could hunt herself, so she didn't have to take advantage of her all the time.

Look at the time is almost up, and both of them have gained a lot, no objections, and go back to their respective homes.

——————

"Wait a minute, the twelve grandmothers will come over, they all have their clothes neat, be mental, don't let people underestimate them." Since Mrs. Twelve sent the news and confirmed the date of the proposal, Mrs. Ji began to work nervously.

Even the clothes of the whole family were personally purchased by Mrs. Ji in the mall - Daddy Ji has a sweater and pants inside, and a gray Zhongshan suit outside; She herself is a set of dark green pants and a half-length cheongsam, plus a dark green flower cotton jacket outside, while the two siblings are sweaters and wool pants, plus a set of imitation green military uniforms outside, a family of four stood forward together, which made people's eyes shine, not to say that this is a rural area, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are cadres in the city.

"Ji Lao Er, Xiulan, are you there?" Grandma Twelve asked meaningfully at the door, after all, she had already said that she was not afraid that they would not be at home.

"Grandma Twelve, Fifth Brother, are you here? Come in and ...... such an important occasion is Daddy Ji, the head of the family, who brought the whole family (except for the three older brothers who went to school, who couldn't catch up) to greet him.

After leading them into the hall, Mrs. Ji put the melon and fruit basin that had been prepared a long time ago on the table, and poured sugar water for each of them from the hot water kettle.

After Ye Shoujun put the gift in his hand on the table, he immediately stood behind his father.

After several adults sat down, they quietly looked at each other......

Looking at the gifts of a bottle of wine, a packet of brown sugar, a packet of toffee, a box of chicken cakes, a packet of pork and a pound of eggs on the table, this gift is really not light at this time, it must be a gift that they have worked hard and prepared with all their heart; There are also their father and son, the clothes that have obviously been taken care of, Father and Mother Ji nodded secretly, not asking them how rich they are, after all, they can't surpass his little sister's, just want them to have a serious and dedicated attitude.

And Ye Wudad, the mood is complicated, faintly regretting it, from the Ji family, he understands that their family lacks nothing, and he also takes a special fancy to his daughter, if there is no valid reason in the future, don't think about quitting the marriage; If he didn't get out of the marriage and wanted to do something to Ye Shoujun, the Ji family wouldn't agree, plus the matchmaker was the twelfth grandmother, if one didn't do it well, it would offend the entire Ye clan, which was obviously not something he could afford, after all, he was still an old thinker, and he wanted to enter the ancestral grave after a hundred years, but if he offended some famous clansmen and patriarchs in the clan at the same time, was it still possible to get his wish? The results are already predictable.

I don't know if it's all a coincidence?

I didn't dare to think about it anymore, and I didn't dare to be noticed by them, with a smile on my face, I secretly covered my eyes.

"Okay, let's talk about it here, you guys go out to play!" After the twelfth grandmother sat down, she said a few words to Ye Shoujun, basically it has been negotiated, it is just a process, and there is no need for the children to stay here.

It wasn't until the night before that the four tigers knew that Wormwood was going to get engaged, and how old his little sister was, he began to think about it, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became.

It's just that this is in a family, he lives at the bottom, and he doesn't dare to lose his temper with anyone, so he doesn't listen to the words of the twelfth grandmother - he has to ~ find someone to vent, so he took Ye Shoujun's hand and prepared to go out and find a place to extinguish the anger.
