Chapter 4: Tidy up the yard
Li Xin naturally saw the timidity in Xiaobao's eyes, so he had to walk over, took the axe in Xiaobao's hand, and chopped it himself, he was also an unfavored rural child in his previous life, he had never done any work to beat pigweed and chop firewood, and later in order to make his grandmother grow face, he also studied Chinese medicine and became a Chinese medicine practitioner who was praised by all the towns, but the grandmother who was so eccentric that she didn't have her brother alone in her eyes, although her younger brother was an out-and-out demon king of the world.
Thinking that when he finally showed his hand in the reservoir to ask his grandmother for help, his grandmother's resentful eyes, and vaguely heard his grandmother say that she was a broom star who killed her brother's life, and it should have been her younger brother who got ahead, and she stole her brother's ancestral green smoke.
Thinking of his previous life, Li Xin's tears couldn't stop flowing down, Xiaobao saw it, and hurriedly took Li Xin's small axe: "Sister-in-law, don't be sad, I won't ask you to work in the future, don't cry." ”
Just when Fang Rong walked into the courtyard, he glanced at Li Xin, who had a snot on his face and tears on his face, and beckoned to Xiaobao and said, "Come over and eat." "Because Fang Rong always has to go up to the mountains to hunt, sometimes he goes for several days, so he eats a lot of dry food at home, and the original owner is too lazy to eat, and he thinks about going to make a big deal, and the family is even more fragmented, and he can't eat a hot soup or meal for a few days.
Xiaobao pulled Li Xin's sleeve and said timidly, "Sister-in-law, let's go to dinner." Li Xin's stomach has long been singing about the empty city plan. Bent down directly and hugged Xiaobao into the house, Xiaobao was a little incredible, but after all, he was still a child, and buried his head in Li Xin's neck.
Fang Rong also glanced at them, sighed and opened the oil packet in his hand, poured three bowls of cold white boil, and ate a few dry tortillas in the oil bag. Li Xin originally wanted to dislike it, but seeing that Xiaobao was satisfied, he had to put it in his mouth.
Several times Li Xin wanted to say something, but Fang Rong was blocked by a look of disgust, Fang Rong finished eating the corn tortilla in his hand, picked up the bow and arrow and said to Li Xin: "I will come back from the mountains and give you a book, you can go wherever you want, if you are lucky enough to make a big one, you can also sell some money to give you a dowry, the grievances between our two families will be written off, you don't have to move other thoughts these days, help me take care of Xiaobao," Fang Rong stopped for a moment: "Don't do other work if you don't want to do it, but don't beat and scold him, The tortillas in that bag, you can boil some boiling water and eat them, and don't bother you to make a fire and cook. ”
Xiao Bao pulled the corner of his brother's clothes and said with teary eyes: "Is my brother going into the mountains to hunt again?" Fang Rong bent down and touched Xiaobao's face and said gently: "Xiaobao has to take care of himself, work more, if he is beaten, run fast, and my brother will be back soon." ”
Li Xin on the side was full of embarrassment, how cruel the original owner was before, she scratched her head and had to laugh dryly: "You have to be careful on the mountain road, I will take care of Xiaobao." ”
Fang Rong's eyes flashed with surprise, but he still bent down and walked to the door with Xiaobao in his arms before putting him down, patted Xiaobao on the shoulder and said, "Wait for my brother to come back." He walked away without looking back.
Li Xin looked back at the chaotic yard and house, and planned to clean it up first, the sun was poisonous in summer, the pulp should be washed, and the slurry should be dried. Li Xin is a man of action, and he does what he says.
In the past few days, Xiaobao has been like a little tail, following Li Xin's side, and even reluctant to sleep when he is sleeping, for fear that Li Xin will run away, Li Xin has to squeeze with Xiaobao.
The next day, the house was carefully cleaned up for Li Xinzai, Li Xin felt useless, and all the ruined ones were thrown away by Li Xin, after throwing them away, the whole room and yard looked clean and tidy, but it also looked empty, and it was pitiful for this tonnage body.
Li Xing raised a hand on her face and whistled in the wind, Xiaobao hurriedly cushioned the stool and took a broken fan to fan Li Xin behind her, and the Dongzi nurse who happened to pass by stood outside the courtyard gate and looked at the scene inside, and walked away with a smile.
Li Xin rested for a while and carried the bedding and clothes all in one go, and asked Xiaobao to lead the way to the river to wash, Xiaobao followed Li Xin with grass ash and laundry sticks, and the villagers who were working in the fields on the road saw Li Xin pointing and pointing.
