The puddle is located at the head of the field, and the area is not large, only the size of two acres. It is surrounded by gravel paths with grass and five willow trees of various ages.

The water is rippling and very clear.

When you touch your hand, it's cool.

Occasionally, a fresh breeze blows, and the people who blow are refreshed.

Standing on the edge of the puddle and looking around, the green mountains and green waters, the houses are like a beautiful landscape painting.

"Second sister, let me help you."

Chen Anxia followed Chen Anxue and the others to the edge of the pit, fished out half a bucket of water from the puddle, and laboriously carried it to the shore.

Such a bucket of water, with her strength, was lifted, but it was a little difficult to walk a mile back to their field.

Turning her head and glancing at Chen Anxiao, she was going to let her carry this bucket of water with her, but she had already followed Chen Anning away.

Just as Chen Anxia bent down to lift the bucket, intending to walk back slowly alone.

A voice came.

"Okay, you lift the front, I'll lift the back."

It was Chen Jinglin who called her, her second brother, who was eleven years old this year and about the same size as her. But the whole person looks lean and lean.

Boys are naughty, they can't run home every day, even if they have a full stomach every day, they are consumed, and it's strange that they can gain weight.

Meng is a good fortune, after giving birth to her, he gave birth to three sons in a row.

The eldest son Chen Jingyun is thirteen this year, the second son Chen Jinglin is eleven this year, and the youngest son Chen Jingshen is less than six years old this year, and he is the youngest child in the family.

Three sons with very different personalities.

Chen Jingyun is honest and honest, sensible and courteous; Chen Jinglin is cheerful and lively, a little out of the box; Chen Jingshen is smart and quiet, clever and cute.

Most of the half bucket of water, carried by two people, was a lot easier.

In this way, three back and forth, an afternoon will pass.

As they hurried home, it was already dark, and by the last gray light of the western sky, they walked home in a line on the potholed path.

When I got home, smoke was already rising from the kitchen.

The billowing smoke turned and faded, and everyone washed their hands in the yard to clean up the dirt and dust from their bodies.

"Mother, you go up the mountain today, what is the mountain like now?"

Today it was the turn of the third room to cook, and Meng Shi was in their own room.

After Chen Anxia washed his hands and saw her, he walked in directly, picked up the cold boiled water on the table, and drank it with a bang, then looked at Meng Shi and asked.

"The wild vegetables in the mountains are just emerging, but they can be eaten. It's just a little less, and the six of us dug ten catties after working all afternoon. ”

Meng didn't know what Chen Anxia was asking, but she was asking how many wild vegetables she had dug up today, so he told her.

As he spoke, he sighed.

With such a big family, life is really getting more and more difficult.

Every year after such a day, she feels tired!

After Chen Anxia heard what Meng Shi said, she didn't reply, bowed her head slightly, and turned her gaze to the door. After sitting in the room with Meng Shi for a while, the sound of opening a meal came from outside.

This afternoon, the six of them dug up all kinds of wild vegetables, and after they came back, they didn't pick them up, but just cleaned them, mixed some miscellaneous grain noodles, sprinkled with coarse salt, stirred evenly and steamed in a large pot.

This kind of meal is not good, but it is better than eating dried sweet potato porridge all day long.

Ten catties of wild vegetables plus multigrain noodles are also a lot, at least Chen Anxia is full.
