The family happily returned home, pushed open the yard, Qian Dacheng put the bucket in the corner of the yard where the farm tools were placed, and walked under the eaves with the basket of vegetables.

According to Wang Jiao's request, Zhao Qiuyue hung the Baijie vine on the beam in the firewood room.

Then, start picking up the fresh cabbage that you have just picked up.

Qian Jun put the dead branches in the open space in the yard, and Qian Dacheng had already come up with a firewood knife to clean up.

Qian Hao found a bamboo basket, and with a smile, he picked up Wang Jiao and the wild eggs in his pocket, one by one, and even covered the bottom of the bamboo basket.

Wang Jiao wanted to go over to help Zhao Qiuyue, but she had an injury on her hand and couldn't help anything, so she pulled a chair and sat aside to watch her clean up.

The wind gradually blew outside, and the sun, which had just been warm, suddenly penetrated into the clouds, and the sky began to become gloomy.

Zhao Qiuyue looked up at the sky and just said, "I'm afraid it's going to rain." ’

The courtyard door was pushed open, and a loud woman's voice immediately rang out.

"Qiuyue, you're back, your second child has come to dump all the rice in your rice jar, and there is no one in your family at home."

There was a bit of eagerness in his voice, a little annoyance, and a bit of hatred for the smell of iron not being steel.

As soon as Wang Jiao looked up, she saw that the person who came was a middle-aged woman in her forties, with a round face, thick eyebrows, a high nose bridge, a somewhat fat figure, a blue background and white flower smock on her upper body, which was cleanly washed and a little white, and a pair of black trousers on her lower body, which is the kind that most people generally wear at the moment.

The middle-aged woman's voice was a little loud, and as soon as the words fell, the faces of all the Qian family members in the courtyard except for Wang Jiao suddenly froze.

Even Qian Dacheng, who was chopping dead branches, paused the movement in his hand, and his face instantly stiffened.

Zhao Qiuyue stood up directly from the chair and took a few steps to the kitchen.

Everyone's eyes looked towards the kitchen, and even Qian Hao, who was still fiddling with the eggs, forgot the eggs in front of him and stared at the kitchen door without blinking.

After Wang Jiao only heard the sound of ping pong things falling to the ground, the kitchen fell silent, and then Zhao Qiuyue walked out of the kitchen with an ugly face.

The eyes of all the people in the courtyard fell on Zhao Qiuyue's face, including Wang Jiao.

Qian Dacheng opened his mouth to ask, but his lips squirmed, and he didn't make a sound at all, and finally waved the firewood knife fiercely, and cut the dead branch into two pieces with a snap.

The movement immediately made everyone look at him again.

However, Qian Dacheng didn't look up, and after a knife went down, he slashed down at the dead branch again.

Zhao Qiuyue's hands pinched the corners of her clothes tightly, and her face was a little better after half a ring, and she barely squeezed out a wry smile, "It's not that I took it, if it weren't for Sister Peach Blossom, you wouldn't tell me, I don't know where my family's rice went, you can tell me about my second uncle, and I won't say a word when I come to the house to get something." ”

In the end, the smile on Zhao Qiuyue's face finally couldn't be maintained anymore.

There is a total of rice at home, two thin meals every morning and evening, and it is difficult to eat a dry meal at noon, or rice and cornmeal mixed and matched.

In this way, it is quite difficult for the little surplus food at home to hold on to the harvest in the fields next year.

Now that Qian Ercheng has come to take away the little rice in the rice bowl at home, how will he live in the next few days.

When Zhao Qiuyue thought of this, she really felt gray hair.

Zhao Taohua looked at Zhao Qiuyue's appearance, and guessed her embarrassment in her heart, it stands to reason that since the state subcontracted all the fields to households the year before last, the life of the people in the village has been better.

But Qian Dacheng's family of two is obviously more industrious than other people's families, getting up early and working in the fields in the dark, but because of the squeezing of Mrs. Qian's side, in the past two years, the family still can't fill their stomachs, and it is better to eat a big pot of rice in those years.

But it's useless for her to say this, if the two of them don't stand up, what can she do as an outsider.

Look at a few children who are hungry and yellow-skinned.

Zhao Taohua's eyes were full of pity and looked at the children.

When her eyes fell on Wang Jiao's face, her eyes lit up obviously, the little girl looked like she was twelve or thirteen years old, her small face was delicate, her skin was fair, her apricot eyes were big, bright as the shining stars in midsummer, and her long and curly eyelashes were like a thick feather fan.

What a handsome girl.

"Qiuyue, is this your eldest girl?"

She seemed to have forgotten the dissatisfaction with the two of them just now, and her eyes were instantly filled with joy.

As soon as Zhao Qiuyue heard Zhao Taohua mention Wang Jiao, the sadness on her face seemed to disperse immediately, and she hurriedly smiled and beckoned Zhao Taohua to come over and sit.

Zhao Taohua stuffed the plate with steamed buns in her hand into Zhao Qiuyue's hand, "My steamed steamed buns are sent to a few children to taste." While looking at Wang Jiao with a smile.

"Qiuyue, your eldest girl is really handsome, unlike our golden flowers, not so white and tender, and not so good-looking."

Zhao Qiuyue held the plate, five steamed buns that were not too big, and slowly loaded a plate. The steamed buns the size of a child's fist are obviously made with cornmeal added, with a faint yellow color.

She smiled and hummed, "This kid is really good-looking." ”

Over the years, her family didn't know how many things she had eaten from Zhao Taohua's family, and Zhao Qiuyue couldn't say anything about her thanks.

However, she believes that her family will be able to repay this favor one day.

So what she has to do now is to accept it calmly, and then remember these people who are really good to her and her family.

When their family has the ability, they will repay them one by one.

Zhao Taohua said as she smiled at Wang Jiao and introduced herself.

"Big girl, I'm your Aunt Peach Blossom, and your mother Qiuyue is a girl from a village, we have been good friends since childhood, and when we grew up, we married together in Yaoqian Village, and now we live very close, you see there, there is my home, I have a little sister at home, you can go to my house to play with my little sister when you have time."

Zhao Taohua said, and stretched out her hand to point to a direction to show Wang Jiao.

Wang Jiao smiled and nodded, and then shouted shyly, "Aunt Peach Blossom." ”

Obviously, the relationship between Zhao Taohua and Zhao Qiuyue is not ordinary, and in the face of her enthusiasm, Wang Jiao can only try to deal with it like a lady.

Then, Zhao Taohua immediately responded happily, "Eh, good boy, really good boy, you have made your mother want to make you bitter all these years." ”

As she spoke, her eyes suddenly turned a little red, and her voice was a little choked.

When Wang Jiao saw it, she was immediately stunned, how could this person say that he was about to cry? Wasn't it just a happy chat?

Zhao Qiuyue naturally knew that Zhao Taohua was happy for herself, after so many years, she could still reunite with her daughter, this kind of surprise was not something anyone could encounter.

The corners of her eyes were also a little moist.
