Chapter 32: The Evil Temptation is too obvious
What Old Man She didn't know was that the reason why Mei Yali was so "quiet" and "steady" was entirely because she didn't want to leave permanent scars on her little body.
In her previous life, she also learned to walk when she was about a year old.
At that time, she was so naughty that she had just learned to walk a few steps and began to stumble and try to run and jump.
She Yufen couldn't see it, so she knocked a big hole on her forehead.
The scar followed her for thirty years until she died, and she still had a pea-sized scar on the right corner of her forehead, which made her regret it every time she looked in the mirror.
And her teeth, because she ate too much sugar, she couldn't help but lick them when she changed her teeth, so her teeth later became a point of dissatisfaction with herself.
Then there is the early weaning when she was a child, and the poor resistance and short stature caused by malnutrition caused by the family's too poor, and she has to reverse it in this life.
She wants to grow taller, not get sick as much as possible, and be a person who is physically fit and has a lot of "revolutionary capital".

After planting the fields, the farmers have some free time before they start pulling weeds and thinning seedlings.
Of course, this "free" is relative to the busy farming season.
The real situation, in She Yufen's words, is, "Croppers, as long as you want to do it, there is work waiting for you everywhere and at all times."
For example, at this time, the farmers in Taizi Village are busy catching piglets, chickens, and goslings back to raise.
Because the family had no money, She Yufen sent the idea back to her parents' house.
In order to catch a little piglet, a dozen chicks, and four or five goslings to come back to raise, she went back to her parents' house to ask Wang Xiulan to borrow money.
Because it was borrowed and not given, She Fenggang didn't say anything strange.
In addition to borrowing money to buy pigs, chickens, and geese, She Yufen also went around to exchange seedlings or vegetable seeds.
Common such as cabbage, leeks, celery, peppers, green peppers, eggplant, spinach, lettuce, coriander, green onions, garlic, carob (zucchini), cucumbers, beans, tomatoes, gourds, devil ginger, water radish, large radish, carrots, uncommon such as dihuaner, fennel, chrysanthemum, cabbage, She Yufen according to the season, successively planted a full yard.
If every household has a well, or where there is a stream and a river in front of the village, it may not be a big deal to grow vegetables in this yard, but the problem is that there is only one well in Taizi Village, and this well is located in the southernmost part of the village.
As for the creek and the river, the only river in their township was located next to the Heigang Township Government, very far away from them, and the creek was also in the southernmost part of the village, far away from Mei Zhijun's house, and farther than the well in their village.
In Taizi Village, where water is so inconvenient, it is not easy for She Yufen and Mei Zhijun to fill the yard with vegetables except for houses, roads, round barns, pig houses, chicken coops, toilets, and empty livestock sheds.
Not to mention anything else, just because they had to go to the southernmost part of the village every night to pick up the dozen or so trips of water, ordinary people couldn't hold on.
When the seedlings in the field grew enough to pull weeds and thin the seedlings, Mei Yali began to follow her parents every day to go out early and return late.
Although she is young, she is exceptionally well-behaved because the core has been changed.
She Yufen is super worry-free because her daughter brings it up, and she will sigh every once in a while, "I used to want her grandmother to help bring us Yali, but she is good, she would rather stay honest than help us watch the child." It made me sad at that time. Fortunately, my daughter is sensible and tight, knowing that it is not easy for her parents to be naughty. Now that I've seen it, I can't help if she doesn't help her, other people's dead fathers and dead mothers, and the children will not be brought up the same. ”
"Dead dad and dead mom" or something, it's really not a good thing to say, but Mei Zhijun didn't dare to excuse his mother.
In their Taizi Village, and even in their Heigang Township, an old man like Zhao Huiying can't find a second one, and for the things she did in heaven and earth, She Yufenquan was already polite when she died, and if she changed those who had a spicy temperament, she would have asked her husband to cut off relations with her mother-in-law a long time ago.
This is not Mei Zhijun's own imagination, in their Heigang Township, those mothers-in-law who are far less difficult to serve than Zhao Huiying abound, and there are many good children in the hands of their daughters-in-law.
The two were gossiping in a low voice while pulling weeds and seedlings, and Mei Yali, who insisted on walking back and forth in the field on her short legs, suddenly beckoned to the two, "Dad, Mom, Tutu, yes." ”
Mei Zhijun and She Yufen looked up at the same time, and then the two of them saw Mei Yali pointing at the four little rabbits in the ground with her little fat hand.
The four little rabbits were obviously not long after they were born, and their little bodies were still stumbling when they walked.
Mei Zhijun walked over and took a look, "It's so small, you can't raise it if you catch it." ”
Mei Yali stretched out her hand and pointed to the poplar grove next to the field, "Big, big." ”
Mei Zhijun reached out and touched his daughter's little head, "Cheng, I'll go and catch two big ones for my daughter to play with later." ”
Mayali grinned, her small baby teeth glistening in the sunlight.
She Yufen shook her head helplessly, "You just get used to her." Now is not a good time to catch rabbits. ”
Mei Zhijun didn't care, "It's just for my daughter, what does it matter if it's fat or not?" ”
Mei Yali said in her heart: "I'm not playing. ”
But she couldn't say this - a child who was just over a year old opened his mouth to say that he wanted to raise rabbits to earn money, and this evil was too obvious.
In the evening, Mei Zhijun really finished work a little earlier than usual, and then while the sky was still bright, he grabbed a stone the size of a baby's fist and went into the poplar forest next to him.
When he came out again, he had four more rabbits in his hand.
The four hares were tied together by him with freshly braided straw ropes, as if they were unwilling to become human prisoners, although they were carried by Mei Zhijun, they were still tossing and turning.
With a smile on her face, she reached out her chubby hand to touch one of the bulging gray hares.
In her last life, her second cousin's family had raised rabbits for a few years, and at that time she had a very good relationship with her little cousin, and she often went to her house to observe her second cousin and aunt raising rabbits, so she could easily see that this gray hare with a bulging belly was actually pregnant with a rabbit.
Mei Yali, who was in a good mood, was held by She Yufen, while Mei Zhijun was responsible for holding farm tools, hares, pigweed, wild vegetables used to feed chickens and geese, empty buckets, and the bowls, chopsticks, and tea jars they used to eat and drink.
