The chickens outside have crowed three times, and there are occasionally a few stars in the dark sky, and the whole world seems to be covered with a thin veil, and it is hazy and hazy that people can't see it really.

There is a sparse sound in the upper room, it is estimated that the father and mother got up, and today I have to go to the field early to plant seedlings, and I get up late, and the sun is too hot to panic

Take advantage of the cool morning to get up early and work well, "Sister, are you awake?" ”

It was Zhou Mei's sister Zhou Lan who spoke, and the little girl was angry when she spoke in the quilt.

"Second sister, I'll go to make breakfast for my mother when you sleep, you go to sleep, I'll call you when breakfast is ready,"

After speaking, Zhou Mei came out of the quilt, got dressed, and walked towards the door.

This room is almost more than ten square meters, and the two sisters sleep on a wooden bed, and the bed is placed against the wall.

There are two wooden cabinets in the corner of the bed, where some clothes and the sisters usually put their own small things.

There is a table by the window, on which there is an earthen teapot and cups for drinking water. There are two quadrangular stools on the side of the table.

Opposite the stove room is a room with miscellaneous items, and the extra food is usually stored in the room over there.

There is a grape trellis next to the gate in the courtyard.

Last winter, the leaves were almost frozen and died.

In the spring of this year, when everything is recovering, a few clusters of delicate green shoots have emerged from the grape trellises that have already died. It makes people unconsciously happy.

Along the back of the eaves is the place where pigs, chickens and poultry are kept, and there is a thatched latrine that every household in the countryside has, although this thatched latrine is vulgar to say, but the crops in the field all year round depend on it.

There is also a vegetable patch surrounded by a fence not far away.

Now is the beginning of spring, there is no time to sow seeds urgently, and only after planting seedlings can we spare time to turn the ground and sow seeds.

"Mother, I'll help you light the fire." Meizi saw the stove room take the burning stick in Zhou's hand.

What does Zhou's personality say?

It's a typical rural woman.

He is not tall and a little chubby, but his personality is relatively bold and upright.

It's the kind of person who has something to say.

In the village, the popularity is not bad.

Zhou Mei looks like Zhou.

The two mothers have special eyes.

It's just that the size of the plum follows the Tuesday River, which is the father of the plum, tall and thin. But there is no shortage of meat where there should be. Zhou is slightly rounder.

"Meizi, why don't you sleep a little longer, it's not very bright yet! I'm too busy here, I don't need you, there's hot water over there, I'm going to wash my face. Tell Erniu and Bamboo to get up, and I'll start eating."

"Got it, mother".

Zhou Mei washed well. The second girl opened the door of the sisters' room and came out.

The little girl's eyes are still squinted.

A delicate little face is in a ball.

"The second girl is going to eat, hurry up and wash your face"

The second girl heard Zhou Mei's voice, opened her sleepy eyes and looked at Zhou Mei in the yard and agreed.

"I know, big sister."

Zhou Mei didn't care about her. walked straight to the hall, entered the hall and pushed open the room where the Zhou family was sleeping and told Zhou Zhu to get up.

"The little guy is up, my mother is calling for dinner, and there is egg custard this morning."

"Eldest sister, you help me get dressed, and I'll get up."

The little boy who was talking was about five years old, and when he saw Meizi coming in, he got up and knelt on the bed, facing Zhou Mei and being coquettish. The black and shining eyes smiled crooked as if they were full of stars, the two round faces were white and tender, and a pink little mouth was slightly pursed. Not to mention how cute it is, Meizi couldn't help but reach out and touch the little guy's face, which was as smooth and tender as expected.

"Such an adult, you still want me to wear clothes for you, are you ashamed."

Zhou Mei finished with a smile. He stretched out his thin white fingers and lightly tapped the tip of the little guy's nose.

"Eldest sister, you dress me, I'll go to the field today to pick up snails for you, okay."

Zhou Zhu looked at Meizi with a pair of dark eyes that were not impurified.

A pair of tender white hands are still pulling the plum's clothes and swaying coquettishly.

Zhou Mei couldn't stand it when she looked at him like this.

There was only a compromise.

"Okay, I'll dress you, but I said that I won't go anywhere today, my father and mother and I will go to the field to plant seedlings, and you will obediently follow your second sister to know."

The little guy looked at Zhou Mei triumphantly and nodded uncontrollably.

"Knowing the eldest sister, I will obediently follow the second sister and not run around, I will also pick up snails and let the eldest sister get them for me to eat at night!"

Zhou Mei looked at him amusefully while dressing him.

"Got it, you little glutton."

Meizi helps the little one get dressed. He fetched water and washed the bamboo, and then took the little one to the hall and sat down.

"You sit here and wait for me to serve the meal."

After Meizi said this to Zhou Zhu, she turned around and went to the kitchen to bring out the mixed noodles steamed buns made by Zhou, as well as the dried radish and small pickles pickled last winter. Put it on the table in the hall.

The little guy saw the steamed buns on the table, and a pair of black grape-like eyes were dripping in his sockets.

"Eldest sister, didn't you say there was egg custard? How could it not? ”

After speaking, he looked up at Meizi with a pair of dark eyes.

"You're greedy,"

Meizi smiled and replied to the little guy's words.

"Wait, I'll go to the stove room and show you."

After finishing speaking, I was about to collapse out of the door, but I happened to meet the second girl who came in with egg custard. Meizi glanced back at Zhou Zhu, because she was happy to see the egg custard.

"Look at the egg custard, but our little gluttonous cat is in a hurry."

After saying this, Tuesday River entered the hall. Zhou put the chopsticks and sweet potato porridge on the table and the family started eating.

After eating, the sisters put away the dishes and chopsticks and put them in the stove room, and Meizi asked the second girl to wash the dishes and chopsticks. went out with farm tools and a straw hat, and went out with the Zhou family.

The Zhou family has two acres of paddy fields, and there is a river on the edge of the paddy fields. Almost all of the paddy fields in Dawan Village are planted along the river, so that when it comes time to plant rice, there will be no competition for water.

All the way out of the village, I met many villagers on the way, all of whom took advantage of the cool early morning to do farm work in the fields.

There are hundreds of families in Dawan Village, and their surnames are also quite mixed. Although there are many people, they all get along very well.

Even if there is an occasional quarrel, it is the chicken who picked up the eggs, and the pig who ran out and arched the vegetables in the field. These are trivial things. The folk customs are relatively simple.

When he arrived at the field, Tuesday River dragged his shoes, rolled up his trousers, and went down to the field first. The water was a little cold in the morning, and Tue He, who had adapted to the field, turned back to Zhou and Meizi, who were standing at the edge of the field and rolled up their trousers and prepared to go down to the field

"You two will come down later, and now the water is still cold, and you are afraid of freezing and getting sick, so wait for the sun to dry the water a little and hot it down."

Zhou raised his head and looked at the man working in the field with admiration on his face, and said with disgust.

"You and I are as stupid as you, I don't know how cold the water is, you look at which mother-in-law around you doesn't work in the fields, your mother-in-law and I are expensive."

Tuesday He didn't know how to respond to Zhou's words, so he could only scratch his head and laugh.

Zhou shook his head helplessly when he saw him like that. Meizi on the side looked at the happy appearance of her parents and said with a smile.

"Mother, my father cares about you and can't bear you!"

Zhou was a little shy when he heard Meizi's words.

"What is the little girl talking about? Where does your father care about me, does he care about you and me by the way! Don't go down, I'll go down and open the seedlings with your father first, and you wait for the sun to come out before it comes down. ”

When Zhou was young, she was the eldest girl of Sun Xiucai's family in the next village, and she could read and write.

Sometimes when Sister Meizi asked Zhou why, Zhou said with a happy face.

"Your father at the time! It's not handsome, and it's dark, and he looks honest. But the body is strong, he saw me go up the mountain to collect firewood, the next morning he carried two bundles of firewood to my door, called your grandmother without saying a word and turned away, the more you called him, the faster he ran, sometimes he would send a hare, or wild fruit, and did not speak. After sending it like this for many months, your grandmother saw that she was honest and willing to endure hardships, so she agreed. ”

At that time, Meizi laughed when she heard Zhou's words, and her eyes were bent into a beautiful crescent shape.

"Mother, I'm afraid it's not my grandmother who has taken a fancy to my father, but you who have taken a fancy to my father!" After speaking, he didn't dare to look at Zhou's and ran away.

In the field, Zhou and Tuesday were all bending down to plant seedlings, and they didn't see the plums go down to the field. When Zhou found out, Meizi was about to walk to Zhou's side.

"Meizi, didn't you tell you not to come down! Hurry up and get up. ”

Meizi is not afraid of the Zhou family. The hippie smiled back to Zhou, "Mother, it's okay, this water is not cold and comfortable at all!" Leave me alone. Let's get to work! In a moment the sun will come out. When Zhou heard this, he didn't plan to say anything. just shook his head helplessly. said with emotion

"This girl is getting more and more stubborn as she grows up."
