Chapter 33: The Most Important Thing to Be Happy (Qingyun Plus Change)
was busy until the sun set in the west, and Mingtang and others, who had been tired all day, reluctantly left Xishan and took a large number of baskets to meet Xie Shi and others.
"What is this? Why is this so much? Where did you get that? Seeing Mingtang and the others dragging and pulling alive, moving back and forth three or four times before all of them were pounded into the basket in front of them, Xie Shi could no longer control her curiosity, she went to lift the rags covering the basket and asked Mingtang and the others questions like a cannon.
"Hey, hey, hey..." Mingtang and the others smirked together, and after laughing, Mingtang didn't forget to look around, "Sister-in-law, don't ask yet, I'll tell you when I get home." ”
Xie Shi knew at a glance that this matter could not be publicized in front of others, she immediately closed her mouth, and the half-lifted rag was quickly put back on the basket by her.
"Tired, aren't you? We're here to help, too. Zhou first asked her husband, and after getting Mingtang's answer of "what is this", she smiled and handed the half basket of yam on her shoulder to San Lang to carry, "You take this down the mountain first, if your father and your second uncle are at home, let them hurry up to help." ”
San Lang was almost paralyzed from exhaustion, and when he heard that he could go to the rescue, the little guy was so happy that he almost cried.
Called Shiro and Goro, who had two hands in the air and a relaxed expression on their faces, Saburo walked in a hurry, fleeing in the direction of his house.
"That's it, you still call the big brother and them." Mingtang casually complained about his daughter-in-law while continuing to move baskets in threes.
Zhou Shi felt distressed when she saw it, and she also began to carry the baskets one by one.
Xie Shi was embarrassed to stand aside and watch, she put down her basket containing most of the yam, and began to learn Zhou's two by two baskets.
Although Ming Xu is young, he has always regarded himself as an "adult", so he has always been like Ming Tang, carrying two baskets on his back.
The rest of Mingyue, Erlang, San Lang, and Jiayan are not good, they can only carry two baskets at most, one light and one heavy, at a time.
A group of people were like a great migration, carrying all kinds of mountain goods they had collected today, back and forth, and by the time Mingdi and Mingcheng hurriedly came, they had already moved more than 20 baskets to the edge of the river in batches.
San Lang also followed, but he came after he went home and put down the basket, so he came later than Mingdi and Mingcheng.
"Second brother, second brother, grandma said to make us white flour cakes at night! There are also roast chicken and stew! The roast chicken was brought back from the county seat by our master, and it is fragrant! Saburo, who had just looked half-dead, was exhausted at this time, and he ran, jumped, and cheered, with a beaming face.
Erlang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he was extremely tired because of his physical exhaustion, and he jumped on the spot, "Ahhh ”
Mingyue laughed, "Second brother, you should say, 'Whoa, I want to eat meat'." ”
Mingtang couldn't straighten his waist with a smile - maybe he couldn't straighten his waist because he was tired, he nodded Mingyue's forehead weakly, "You think your second brother is a wolf?" It's still 'whoa'. ”
Everyone laughed out loud when they heard this.
Erlang doesn't care if he is a human or a wolf, his only thought now is to eat meat.
Unlike the children who only think about food, Mingtang, Xie and others are more concerned about whether the family's fields are bought.
Xie didn't ask, but just cast his expectant gaze on her husband.
Mingdi bowed slightly to her, and Xie Shi was immediately overjoyed.
Her family has clearly reached the age of saying goodbye, and the family has more than 20 acres of land in one breath, so she can be tougher even if she talks to the matchmaker.
Unlike before, the Ming family only has 12 acres of upper fields and 20 acres of lower fields, at first glance, this field is not old or young, but after careful calculation, this family has three sons, five grandsons, and a little girl who wants to recruit a son-in-law.
Especially when she and Mingdi gave birth to four children in one go, they were chewed by those long-tongued women in the village, "Look at what she will do to marry her son in the future!" ”
Now that her family is getting more and more prosperous, it is no longer a problem for her and Mingdi's four sons to marry daughters-in-law, and Xie Shi only feels full of energy.
Mingtang, Zhou, and Tao all saw this interaction between the two, and the three of them couldn't help but be happy.
When all the baskets were moved back to their homes, everyone was immediately called by Mrs. Ming to the main room for dinner, "Don't clean it up yet, I'm afraid I'm hungry after a tiring day, right?" ”
As soon as Mrs. Ming's words fell, Erlang and Sanlang had already responded in unison, "I'm really hungry!" ”
Erlang also added a special sentence, "Milk, your grandson can eat a whole pig when he is hungry." ”
Mrs. Ming couldn't help laughing, "Then you can't eat too much, in case you eat too much, it will hurt your spleen and stomach." ”
Seeing Erlang's disappointed face, Mrs. Ming smiled and handed him a flatbread, "Don't worry, I will let you eat enough." ”
Erlang suddenly became happy, he whimpered and took a bite of the cake, "Milk, you don't know how tired we are today, let me tell you, I have Venus turning in front of me now." ”
When Old Man Ming heard this, the slices of meat that he originally wanted to put into his bowl turned around and fell into the Ming Xu bowl closest to him and Mrs. Ming, "Eat more." ”
Erlang suddenly stopped doing it, "Master! You're too biased, aren't you? ”
Old Man Ming, who has always been serious, rarely showed a smile, "If you want to eat, you can eat it yourself, isn't your eldest brother sitting close to me." ”
Erlang pursed his lips and stuffed a piece of chicken into his mouth as if angry, of course, he was very measured and did not clip the chicken legs.
Xie Shi was angry and funny, "You kid, you can't stop your mouth when you eat!" ”
Saburo, Shiro, Goro, and Jiayan all secretly grimaced at Jiro.
Mingyue held the bowl and laughed silently - it's so good, her favorite family members can be so happy.
After the meal, Shiro and Goro, who were full of food and drink, were coaxed by Mrs. Ming to wash up first, and the others gathered in the warehouse, waiting for Mingtang to "reveal" what the twenty or so baskets in the warehouse contained.
"These baskets are light herbs, which Mingyue and the others got back at the beginning."
"Three and a half baskets of yams were dug from Nanshan, and the remaining five baskets were dragged back from Xishan."
"There are twelve chestnut baskets, all with shells. We'll have to go again tomorrow, and we'll have about half of the chestnuts in the trees. ”
"This basket is filled with rabbits and pheasants. Mingyue They dug a few traps in the morning, and we took a look before we came back, good guys, we caught this old one in one day. ”
"And this basket is wild eggs, most of which were picked up by Saburo. This kid has his eyes fixed on wild eggs. ”
Everyone laughed when Mingtang said this, and San Lang's ears were red with laughter.
