Chapter 20: Open Land

"Why don't you wait for me."

When Youyi came back, Youxin couldn't help but tell him.

"Hehe, I'm not in a hurry, second brother, don't be angry, ah, hehe!"

After saying that, he didn't care, and went to tease his heart again.

Youxin just stood and looked at him for a while, and his eyes didn't look at him.

But soon he came back again, and his body was also very clean, and his hands were clean, much cleaner than the righteous one.

"Good heart, call brother."

When Youxin entered the door, he heard Youyi Rang Xin'er calling him brother.

"Poof, haha, what are you doing?"

Youxin couldn't help but laugh when he heard it.

"I didn't do anything, I just taught my heart to call my brother, second brother, why are you laughing."

Youyi was happy to play with Xin'er, but now he suddenly heard him laugh and Xin'er stopped playing with him, put down his hand and looked in the direction of laughter.

Youxin is talking while changing and walking, and now it is next to Xin'er, seeing Xin'er squatting on the other side and stretching out his hand to tease Xin'er without blinking his eyes wide, and ignoring the righteous words.

Youyi didn't pay attention to him when he saw that Xin'er was having a good time with Youxin, and the unhappiness in his heart was directly revealed.

Seeing that his second brother didn't answer his words, he snorted loudly.

As his voice fell, his heart set his eyes on him again, letting go of the hand that grabbed Youxin and stretched out his hand to him.

Seeing that Xin'er stretched out his hand to him again, he was not angry anymore, and immediately changed his smiling face, reached out and continued to play with Xin'er.

In this way, the three of them played happily again, and Youyi forgot about his second brother laughing at him just now.

"There is faith and righteousness, has your heart cried?"

Wang Shi was worried that the speed of pulling pig food at home was not faster than usual, and she was going to cook some sun-dried sweet potato vines, so she didn't need much.

When he got home, Wang put the pig food in the kitchen, washed his hands, and came to see them.

The righteous people in the house were playing happily and didn't notice her coming, and when they heard the voice, they realized that his mother had returned.

"Second aunt, you're back, Sister Xin'er didn't cry, but it's good."

Youxin turned his head to look at Wang, and said as soon as he heard her words.

"That's right, mother, my sister is well-behaved, she didn't cry at all, she still played with us."

Youyi glanced back at his mother, then continued to turn his head and go back to play with his sister.

Wang Shi saw that the situation should be fine, but after such a long time, it is time to pee on his heart.

"Well, you are all very well-behaved, come, you have a righteousness to let me take a look, I will pee on my heart."

"Oh."

Youyi moved a little unwillingly to the side a little, really a little.

……

"Okay, my mother is going to cook, you can continue to play with Xin'er."

"Got it, mother."

You replied with a smile.

Wang shook his head, stupid boy. But she was still happy in her heart, and she was very satisfied with the good relationship between their brother and sister.

After explaining this, Wang went to the kitchen.

There are still a lot of steamed steamed buns this morning, and they should be able to eat for two days, and they don't need to cook rice in these two days, at most they can cook some more porridge.

Wang thought that if he ate porridge at night, he would get up frequently at night, so he didn't plan to cook porridge anymore, just stir-fry some vegetables.

In fact, it stands to reason that eating pumpkin at night will also make people wake up frequently at night, but there is no food now, so it can only be like this.

Wang first went to the granary to pick up a large pumpkin, cut one-third of the pumpkin down, peeled and washed it and cut it into pieces and put it in a pot for later use.

Then, she tore off the cabbage leaves she had picked before, leaving the stalks clean enough to be cut into diamond shapes and put them in a basket for later use.

As for the ripped leaves, they are used to feed the pigs.

Make a fire, wash the pot with water, put the steamed rice dumplings that are enough for the family to eat, put them in the pot and steam them, and when the water boils, put the pumpkin into the pot and press it under the retort.

When the time is almost up, he picks up the retort and scoops up the pumpkin in the pot and puts it in the ren.

After washing the pot, it is annealed, leaving only a stick of firewood in it on low heat.

Put a little lard in the pot, add the firewood insects that have been washed and dried before the oil is hot, add a little salt and shovel it evenly and put it in a bowl after the firewood insects are fried and crispy.

The taste was very fragrant when the firewood worms were fried, so that Youyi, who was looking at his heart from afar in the room, couldn't help but come and see it, and wanted to eat it, but was rejected by Wang.

If you have righteousness, you really don't have a chance, so you go out depressed again.

Wang didn't care about him, after the firewood insects were fried, she burned the firewood that had been withdrawn before into the stove, and after the fire was hot, she added a little oil to the pot, and she continued to fry the cabbage with the remaining oil when the firewood insects were fried in the pot before.

After frying the cabbage, she saw that there was still a little oil star left in the pot, and after thinking about it, she scooped another scoop of water into it and waited for it to boil.

While it was time for it to boil, she went to wash the cabbage leaves she had ripped off earlier.

When she finished washing the vegetable leaves, the water in the pot was boiling, she put the vegetable leaves into the pot and boiled them, sprinkled a few salts, and scooped them up and put them in a large porcelain basin when the vegetables were cooked.

Dinner was ready, but the people on the mountain had not yet returned, and she was afraid that the dishes would be cold, so she covered them with bowls and pots.

It didn't take long for Erlin and them to come back from the mountain.

As in the morning, Zheng and Zhang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law each carried a load of firewood, Erlin also carried a load of firewood, and Ding Dashan and Yimu carried a tree trunk by themselves.

As for Youcheng, he did carry a load of firewood, but the amount was not very large, so he looked like he was holding firewood.

"Daddy, eldest brother and sister-in-law, Erlin, you are back, wash your hands and eat."

Wang sat on the weir with his heart in his arms and waited for them to come back, and when he saw them, he stood up with his heart and said.

Xin'er was already about to fall asleep, and when she heard her speak, her eyes suddenly opened again, and she looked at the place where the sound came from.

Put the firewood in the courtyard dam, and they sat down on the trunk of the tree.

"Well, we'll eat later."

Ding Dashan sat down before he said.

As soon as Wang heard this, he asked Youxin and the two brothers to go to the kitchen and bring out the boiling water she had dried before for them to drink.

Youxin and righteousness served a bowl, Wang served a bowl, and several people drank water and sat for a while before going to wash their hands and eat.

There are a lot of dishes today, four dishes plus a plate of kimchi, and five small ones, but there is no meat.

"That's a lot of dishes!"

Even if there is no meat, Zheng still can't help but say, how can people in the village usually have so many dishes in one meal, many people are usually a pot of boiled vegetables.

As soon as Wang heard this, he took down the bowl and pot covering the dish, and explained to Zheng: "Mother, it's not much, I was going to cook a pumpkin and stir-fry cabbage, but you are also tired for a day today, and it is time to eat some oil stars."

In addition, I also fried the firewood worms you brought back, and then I saw that there was still a little oil star in the pot after frying the cabbage, so I boiled a handful of cabbage leaves. ”

Zheng originally felt a little extravagant, and he had nothing to say when he heard her say this.

"Alright, let's eat."

"Dad, you eat first, your heart is going to sleep, I'll put you to sleep and then eat."

"Hmm."

Wang walked around the courtyard with Xin'er in her arms and fell asleep, and only put her on the bed after making sure that the child was asleep.

The bed had been made by this afternoon, and she didn't have to make it again.

After she settled her heart, she came to the hall to eat, and the place where the Ding family ate was not fixed, sometimes in the kitchen, sometimes in the hall, and today she ate in the hall.

"Xin'er is asleep, come over and eat."

As soon as Erlin saw Wang coming over, he hurriedly called her.

"Hmm."

When Wang served the table, she found that there were already some dishes in the bowl in front of her, and she didn't have to think that she knew that it was her own man.

She didn't say anything, took a steamed bun and began to eat.

When Wang arrived, she found that the bowl with fried firewood worms was gone, and she didn't look much at it, eating other dishes.

"Mother, here you go."

Suddenly, Youyi on the side brought her a firewood worm, she glanced at him and said, "You eat it yourself, my mother doesn't like to eat it." ”

"Oh."

Youyi didn't say anything when he heard it, he came back and ate it himself.

After dinner, Wang began to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and Zhang's desire to help was also stopped by her.

"Sister-in-law, you're tired for a day, you go and rest, I'll get it done in a while."

Zhang was a little embarrassed, but he went out to rest without much excuse.
