Now that the family also has food, white flour and rice, and there is no shortage of meat and vegetables, the family no longer has to worry about returning to the old situation of not having enough food and clothing.

Lin Baoru was about to clean up the house, and Cairu and Caihe, who had just finished sweeping the yard, ran back. The tanned faces of the two of them are now much whiter and tenderer, less thin than before, but much more cute.

"Eldest sister, I've finished sweeping the yard with Caihe."

Today's Lin Baoru has long been accustomed to the appearance of the two sisters begging for praise after work, so she is not stingy, and praised the two of them a few times in a row. This boast made Cairu and Caihe more and more beautiful, and even the matter of storing the tables and chairs in the room in her hands was snatched up to do it.

Of course, Xiaoshan, who has been lying by the window and not disturbing the eldest sister's work, also competes for favor with a pair of big eyes. provoked Lin Baoru to laugh back and forth, and Xiaoshan laughed embarrassed.

As soon as the Wang family, who was picking up firewood outside, entered the house, they heard the sisters and brothers laughing, and their mood became cheerful. Even if you are tired, there is not much left at this time.

She looked at the clean and warm house, and then looked at the youngest son who was making a mess with a few sisters on the kang, and her heart was indescribably comfortable. Every time she sees the changes in her family, she will never tire of thinking that they can still live so happily after leaving the old house.

Now that the family is full, it has only been a month since the separation, but the dilapidated and deserted thatched courtyard of my family has the appearance of home.

The most obvious, of course, is the change in several children. In the past, the girls who looked like quails were much more lively and playful. And Xiaoshan, who has always been groggy and only knows how to sleep, has also grown a lot from the past like a kitten like a cub, not only is he childish, he speaks a lot clearly, and his legs and feet are even more energetic.

Even her eldest son, who had been worried, turned his brain. Now, although I can't learn a good craft, I have to learn it, and I won't have to worry about starving again for the rest of my life.

The more she thought about it, the better she felt, so she looked at a few small people in the room with a smile in her eyes and said: "Okay, okay, don't make trouble, just now your uncle and concubine sent a letter saying that Guo Ming'er slaughtered two old ducks at home, and asked us if we should go!" ”

This time, without Lin Baoru saying anything, the youngest Xiaoshan slapped his face and shouted happily: "Mother, go to the concubine's house...... Find a dog brother to play with Xiaobao......"

Wang walked in, poked his head, and said with a joke: "There are still a lot of people in this little head, and before I went, I talked about your dog brother and Xiaobao." ”

Although Xiaoshan is young, he can always hear good things. At this moment, just looking at the expressions of his mother and eldest sister, he also knew that he was laughed at again. So, he blushed and got into the arms of his eldest sister, and said angrily: "I also read my mother!" ”

After speaking, as if he was afraid that Wang would not believe it, he poked out his little head, blinked his eyes and looked at Wang and repeated, "It's just that I'm still thinking about my mother." ”

Cai Ru leaned over with a smile and nodded his little face, "Xiaoshan is amazing, I used to be coquettish with my eldest sister, but now I will coax my mother to be happy." ”

Her smile provoked Xiaoshan to twist her body in Lin Baoru's arms dissatisfied, raised her little head and said, "I saw that the second sister and the third sister were also coquettish with the eldest sister at that time." ”

At this time, Lin Cairu just laughed and didn't speak, but Caihe followed the skinless and faceless lying on the eldest sister's arm and grinned at him: "Just be coquettish, be coquettish, the eldest sister said, children who can be coquettish have candy to eat." ”

After speaking, she raised her little face bag with a blank eye, and smiled happily at her eldest sister: "Yes, eldest sister?" ”

Lin Baoru looked down at her, facing the little face that was clean and full of pure smiles, so she reached out and twisted the fleshy face, and said with a thick smile: "Yes, yes, what you said is reasonable, but my mother and I are the most ignorant!" ”

As soon as she teased like this, the atmosphere in the room became lighter.

Even the Wang family couldn't hold back their laughter, "As far as your crooked reasoning is concerned, it's Baba's pretending to be aggrieved at this time." ”

Lin Baoru saw that the Wang family ruthlessly lifted her bottom, and grinned: "No, how can my mother like me more?" ”

This is good, not only Caihe and Xiaoshan, but even Cairu came over to show her loyalty, "I also like the eldest sister!" ”

"Me too!"

"I'm me, I'm me, Xiaoshan is the one who likes the eldest sister the most!"

The whole day, the family didn't do much. The night before, Lin Baoru and the Wang family took turns smashing a few pieces of pig pancreas. At noon, Wang took advantage of the dawn to lean against the window and play some finger games with a few small ones.

In the middle of the morning, she coaxed Xiaoshan to sleep, and then discussed with the Wang family to put the place where leeks and green onion seedlings were planted indiscriminately in the roots of the courtyard wall, and when the weather was warm, she would also plant some spinach and beans and cucumbers.

First, after the whole yard can also appear more spacious and clean, and secondly, if the family is ready to raise chickens and ducks in the spring, it is necessary to mix and eat for the living creatures, and the chickens and ducks themselves eat a large amount of vegetables and insects. When the time comes, they won't be scrambling for a group of living creatures.

Wang listened to his daughter's thoughts and nodded again and again, "This matter has to be thought out in advance." ”

"Except for the yard, the land in front and back of our house is on the land deed, and I think that the weather is warm, so I will move a few peach trees and pear trees and apple trees." Lin Baoru said with a smile, "Let's not take it out, just so that the family can have a snack." ”

It's not difficult, and it's not too much. Many families with children in the village will plant a few apple trees and pear trees. If the yard at home is large, it may be planted in the yard.

She hadn't thought about it before, and she didn't have the energy for a while, but she knew what she had done in the yard, and in the end, whatever she used to eat, couldn't fall into her child's belly.

At the beginning of spring last year, she also asked Aunt Lu to pass a grapevine/grape tree in the yard. At that time, I was thinking that it would be hot in summer, and after a day of work, I could make a few little sweets fall into my mouth.

Who knows, the mother-in-law and sister-in-law saw her fiddling with the grapevine/grape tree, and they were sneering. It was as ugly as it sounded, saying that she had a few children, and she didn't care about the work in the field, but had to serve a rotten branch, could it be that the branch could feed people?

It just so happened that the field was also busy, and there was no one at home to take care of the vine/grape tree, and when she remembered it, the root was dry.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh again. But her own / Baoru's words reminded her.

"Well, there are no people next to us on the left and right, and we don't cover other people's land, and more fruit trees are not in the way."

Cairu and Caihe on the side listened to it, and said happily: "When the time comes, we will water the fruit trees and let them grow fruit as soon as possible......"

"Well, when the fruit grows, my second sister and I will take Xiao Hei to guard it and prevent people from picking it secretly." Cai He greeted Xiao Hei, and then interjected with a grin.

Lin Baoru rubbed the heads of the two of them, "Then you will have to work hard, you have to feed the chickens and ducks, pick up the little black nest, and watch our fruit trees!" ”

As soon as they heard the eldest sister say this, the two of them hurriedly straightened up their small breasts and patted them, nodded with a red face and promised: "Don't worry, eldest sister, we will definitely be able to do a good job." ”

After talking for a while, they pondered the items they wanted to get when Ming'er went to his uncle's house.

said earlier that in the seventh episode of the first month, Lin Baoru bought sugar and wine from Wang, as well as the fat meat that she stored in the snowdrift and was cold here, and she didn't have time to fry the lard residue in a hurry. It's just the right time to pick it up. These few things are considered to be on the table in the yard of the farmhouse, regardless of whether they are relatives or errands, they are decent to hold.

Although the concubines are not good at speaking and are anxious, they are really close to them. At the very least, this relationship between several layers is much closer than the relationship between grandma's family.

Otherwise, according to the household and population of Lao Lin's family, there will not be many people coming to the door to say a festive word during the New Year, even if it is a visit, it is just Aunt Lu and Aunt Ma. Even if the big guy is taboo about the reputation of the murderous house, he can say hello at the door, but it is also made.

Just like their family, when they go to each house to pay their respects, they will also say hello to their close aunts and sisters-in-law and say auspicious words.

To put it bluntly, it's not that their family is bullied by their mother-in-law, so that others look down on them. Compared with them, Lin Laohan's attitude can affect the attitude of many people.

However, Lin Baoru also understands the truth that no one knows the poor in the downtown area, and their lives are difficult, who is willing to get involved?

The more the days go by, the more Wang misses the place where he grew up. At least, on Wangjiazhuang's side, she is familiar with many people and things.

Early the next morning, Lin Baoru's family got up early in the morning, and for the sake of spirit, Lin Baoru also put on new flowers for Cairu and Caihe.

After eating, Cairu took Caihe to clean up the table, while Lin Baoru scooped up some hot water and washed the dishes and chopsticks.

Probably under the influence of Lin Baoru, now Cairu and Caihe clean up the table very carefully, and every time they wipe the tables and chairs, they will learn from their eldest sister to clean up the stove and the edge of the pot.

So much so that in the very simple stove in the yard, and the small stove and the iron pot on the side, there was no dregs of food at all.

When the family cleaned up, they locked the door hand in hand.

When she left the village, Lin Baoru also went around Aunt Lu's house, told people about going to her uncle's house, and took care of Aunt Lu by the way. said that it was to take care of it, but in fact, it was to look at the Lin family's old mansion and not give birth to moths.

This is not a difficult matter, and most of the families in the village will find someone close to them to help them watch the door. So Aunt Lu didn't think much about it, and naturally when she sent Lin Baoru out, she was also quite emotional when she mentioned the Wang family.

But no matter how they didn't go in previous years, now that the two families are moving around, the second room mother can be regarded as a close person.

None of the family knew how to catch a car, so Wang did not take the children to borrow an ox cart and a donkey cart, but slowly walked along the road outside the village to Wangjiazhuang.

When she met people from the village to say hello, she would also stop to say hello and say a few words.

As for the fact that the Wang family and Wangjiazhuang's mother's family have come and gone, it has long spread in the village with the arrival of people from the Wang family. Naturally, for this big guy, he muttered the Tao behind his back.

But whoever has a lively heart, looking at the appearance of the Wang family coming to send objects, how can he not think through the inside story? Therefore, even if the Wang family doesn't say it, others will bring a few words to the old mansion when they mention it.

As for the Lin family's old house, the atmosphere at this time is as dull as it gets.

On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhang family personally sent her sister-in-law back, and brought a lot of items in a large bag, accusing her sister-in-law of being young and ignorant, and asking the Lin family to forgive her.
