Chapter XVIII

Li Jinshu held the big bowl in both hands, and his saliva was about to flow down because of the smell of meat coming from the bowl along the way. I was careful along the way, and finally walked to Uncle Zhang's house.

Seeing that there was no one in the courtyard, Li Jinshu opened his mouth and shouted, "Uncle Zhang! Are you at home? ”

Zhang Zili's daughter-in-law heard the voice and walked out: "It's Xiaojin, come in!" ”

Jinshu saw the chopsticks in her hand and guessed that their family should be having dinner, so he walked in with a bowl in his hand. Liu Cui was still a little puzzled after seeing the bowl in her hand: "Xiaojin, ...... are you?"

"Today, Uncle Zhang and Second Uncle Zhang came to our house to help with the work, and my mother was going to leave them to finish eating, but they walked too fast, and I couldn't catch up with them." Jin Shu continued half-jokingly, "But my mother fried a lot of vegetables, and we couldn't finish eating them at all, so she asked me to send some to my aunt's house." ”

Liu Cui hurriedly excused himself when he heard this: "How can this work, you hurry back." Your mother's life is not easy now, if you don't know, you still think that your aunt is taking advantage of the fire to rob. ”

"Auntie, don't excuse yourself. Isn't it a waste to spoil so many dishes if you can't finish eating......"

Jin Shu and Liu Cui argued, and the sound naturally attracted the Zhang family who were eating in the house. Uncle Zhang came out soon, and after hearing about the cause and effect, he was going to refuse.

Who would have thought that Jin Shu would immediately speak when he saw the opportunity: "Uncle Zhang, thank you really for the past two days." But the two uncles were busy for most of the day, and they left without even drinking saliva. If you don't even want this bowl of food, then my mother and I will definitely be at peace. It's true that we're not having a good time now, but we can't afford to even eat a meal, so you can take it! ”

Uncle Zhang thought about it, and finally nodded: "You little girl, you can talk with your mouth." ”

Li Jinshu smiled and handed the bowl to Liu Cui. Before they could open the bowl and take a look, she was gone.

Liu Cui entered the house with the bowl, and as soon as she opened the plate, she smelled the fragrance coming to her face. Looking at the dishes in the bowl again, the Zhang family immediately looked at each other, and they didn't know what to say for a while.

In the end, Uncle Zhang sighed and said, "That lady is a grateful person, and you can help as much as possible in the future." ”

After returning home for a hearty dinner, the mother and daughter rested at nightfall. Compared with the days not long ago, Ye Shi feels unprecedented peace and happiness in his current life.

The sun slowly climbed up the hill to the sound of roosters, and today was another sunny day.

I'm done tidying up the house, and now it's all about the field. When the family was separated, the Li family divided two acres of paddy fields and one acre of dry land for the mother and daughter, and after being busy for so two days, Li Jinshu had not yet seen the three acres of fields.

It happened that it wasn't too hot in the morning, so she went to the field with Ye Liuqing. Shimizu Village is named after the Qingshui River that flows through the village, and most of the villagers' fields are on the east bank of the river, because this is the central location of the village's settlement, close to the river and far from the forest, so it is protected from the ravages of wildlife.

Although there are fields on the west bank of the river, the woods there are dense, blocking most of the sunlight, so the crops do not grow as well as on the east bank. In addition, after crossing the river, there is a large area of primeval forest, and there are often many wild animals in the edge of the forest, so the crops on the other side of the river will inevitably suffer.

The land that Li Quanfu gave to the Ye family was on the west bank of the river. The paddy fields are planted with rice, and at this time, all the rice on the east bank has been headed, but only a single ear of rice has emerged from their family's rice. The acre of corn planted in the dry field is not very good, although the poles are quite high, but the corn produced is obviously much smaller.
