Chapter 120: Such a Young Child
"There is a bit of rice harvested today, and I am afraid that the ox cart will not be able to fill it, so I will come back with a few loads first. I have to take it now, you guys have to rest at home. After Xiao Xiao finished speaking, he put down the two babies and continued to carry rice.
Yun Jinshu saw that it was getting dark, so he went out to get dressed.
After a busy day, I was a little hungry, so I went to the stove room to make dinner.
Yesterday she picked more than half of the basket of wild vegetables and came back, and the Zhao family made it last night, and now there are still some left.
She looked at it, and there were still a few handfuls of purslane, and she couldn't help but sneer.
The Zhao family always said that she was a lazy woman, why shouldn't they themselves?
The wild vegetables she dug up yesterday were wild garlic, purslane and amaranth. Because amaranth is not easy to preserve, she wrapped a little mud in the root of amaranth, but she didn't wash it, purslane and wild garlic she washed it, Zhao's they made purslane and wild garlic last night, and they didn't bother to wash it because they thought there was mud on the amaranth.
Yun Jinshu didn't want to complain about the Zhao family, she took the amaranth out to wash, and Niuniu and Xiaobao saw this, so they came over to help.
"Mother, this wild vegetable is red, it's so beautiful." Niuniu said while helping to wash the vegetables.
"Niu Niu, this is not red, this is purple." Xiaobao corrects her.
"Really?"
"Well, it's purple."
"So it's purple, it's so pretty, hee." Niu Niu smiled like a flower.
Yun Jinshu touched her head.
"It's not only beautiful, it's delicious."
"Really?" Xiaobao and Niuniu's eyes lit up.
Where have the two babies eaten any delicious dishes? Wild vegetables like purslane are either bitter or sour.
Amaranth tastes very good, but it is not so easy to pick, there are more poor people in the village who want to dig wild vegetables, Yun Jinshu is also taking advantage of the rain just now, and everyone is busy cutting rice, so he is lucky to be able to dig so much.
"Really, when my mother is ready, you will know."
"Good!" Xiaobao and Niuniu nodded.
After washing the dishes, Yun Jinshu went into the stove room to cook, Xiaobao and Niuniu were not idle, they helped her sweep the rotten vegetable leaves she had just picked outside, and then went into the house to help clean them.
The people of the old Xiao family also came back after cutting the rice.
"It's not me who said, the fifth daughter-in-law has changed quite well in the past few days, but what about the two children in the fifth room? Gu Zi and Lai Di follow us up the mountain and down the ground every day, the two children in the fifth room are good, they know that they are lazy at home all the time, and they don't see them......"
"Sister-in-law." Xiao Xiao interrupted Zhou, "How old are Xiaobao and Niuniu, Laidi and Guzi have only followed up the mountain and down the ground in the past two years, when they are the same age as Xiaobao and Niuniu, aren't they also playing at home?" ”
"Ouch, old five, wouldn't our family's conditions be better than they are now? Our family is so poor now, can we still tolerate Xiaobao and Niuniu to eat rice? He ......, "Before Zhou finished speaking, he saw Xiaobao coming out of the stove with a dustpan filled with garbage, and the dustpan was almost taller than him.
Xiaobao was behind, and Niuniu was still followed by Niuniu, who came out with a broom and put it outside the stove where the broom was placed.
"Can you shut up!" Lao Xiaotou felt sorry for his grandchildren, so he went over to help take away the dustpan in Xiaobao's hand and help Xiaobao take out the garbage.
The Zhou family didn't dare to speak this time, and the Jiang family and the Zhao family didn't dare to speak.
"Come in and eat, today's dishes are still washed by Xiaobao and Niuniu, how old a child is, just do this kind of work, no way, if you don't do it, people will gossip, the child can't stand it." Yun Jinshu said deliberately.
Old Xiao Tou glared at Zhou again, and Zhou dared not speak out.
As soon as everyone came in and sat down, Laidi and Guzi suddenly grabbed their chopsticks and stood up......
