Grandma Zhou's matter has passed, and there is nothing in the Northeast for the couple to worry about. The couple decided to go back to the village to accompany their parents before leaving, and by the way, they would take care of their backyard.

In the small courtyard of the county seat, Zhang Guoqing put down his sleeping son in the master bedroom and pulled Zhou Jiao out of the door. He whispered, "Now start putting away everything that should be collected." ”

Zhou Jiao nodded, followed him, and started from the study, "You first think about how long you can keep enough food." In the study, except for the furniture, I took it all. ”

"Just enough for them to eat until the end of the year. Too much is not safe and does not necessarily get in their mouths. In addition to the things in their rooms, they left two more quilts and gramophones for them. I took the bike with me. There's something left for you to see. ”

Zhou Jiao had already thought about it in her heart. Grain, meat, firewood, briquettes, and daily necessities must be prepared for them. Give more money and tickets, and send it back if you lack anything later.

After cleaning up, the couple looked at each other and smiled. When the village takes care of it, they are really going to leave this house, and they are really reluctant to look at the familiar furniture in the room.

When the family returned to the village, there was silence at the foot of the North Mountain. In the distance, there was a group of people working hard in the fields.

They passed by the old courtyard and found that there was no one inside, and it seemed that their parents should have gone to help in the fields. Especially when I looked at my own backyard, I was sure that they followed everyone to work.

Zhang Guoqing didn't go to his parents, leaving Zhou Jiao to wipe the house, and he took the child to the backyard.

"Dad, it's all ours."

Zhang Guoqing laughed when he heard it, "Yes, don't give it to others." ”

After observing the circle, I found that the corn was a little bad, but there was some harvest anyway, and it was best to use sweet potatoes. This year's autumn sowing, he has no time, otherwise there will be a harvest in two months.

"Son, don't move here, dad works."

Ping An easily dragged the bamboo basket in front of him, "I see how my father works, and I will help my father when I grow up." ”

"Okay, it's really a good son of a father."

When Zhou Jiao came to the backyard, Zhang Guoqing had already done most of the work, squatting on the ground safely and playing with sweet potatoes.

"Don't be busy, we're not in a hurry."

"Mom, Dad said that those vegetables won't grow and they will have to be pulled."

Zhou Jiao looked in the direction pointed by the child and said with a smile: "Hmm." It's not nutritious, it doesn't grow much. You have to eat more to grow faster. ”

Then, she looked regretful, "It's a pity that these fruit trees haven't been harvested a few times in total, and your father's strength has been wasted." ”

Ping An frowned and shook his head, "Sour!" ”

"Okay, we don't eat sour, Ming'er's father will take you up the mountain to pick wild fruits, and specially find sweet nourishment for peace." When Zhang Guoqing saw the child's expression, he couldn't help laughing.

Zhou Jiao looked at the front and smacked her tongue secretly, looking at this speed, this person is really suitable for being a farmer.

"Are you going to finish your work in the afternoon?"

Zhang Guoqing shook his head with a smile, "How can it be so fast?" We must have someone at home these days, and we must have shoveled it as soon as possible, so as to save the eyes. ”

Zhou Jiao nodded and took the child to pick vegetables. Alienated management and flooded by rain, the garden wasted seeds.

The family stayed in the village for three days and did not see their parents a few times. The enthusiastic father and mother were busy harvesting wheat in the village, and every day they were so tired that they ate a bowl of sorghum rice in the field, and went home to sleep.

Zhang Guoqing watched his parents' complexion fade again, and it was useless to persuade him. He was so angry that he had no choice but to give them supplements.

He doesn't object to his parents' obligation to help, but because of himself, he is so tired that he peels off his skin, which is really unreasonable.

Dad Zhang smiled and patted him, "It's just a few days of farming." The harvest in the field is not good, and if it rains again, the whole village will really die. Your mother and I are distracted. ”

Mother Zhang smiled and nodded, "Even seventy or eighty-year-old people in the village go to the fields to help, you will go back to the county seat tomorrow, don't dazzle in the village." ”

"Didn't I see that I was going to leave in a few days, and I wanted to spend more time with you."

"Silly son. When you settle down, your father and I will go to the capital, and you don't have to come back. If you put a hundred hearts, your father and I will definitely go to see you. ”

Zhang Guoqing nodded at her helplessly. If you don't go with him this time, who knows when you will go to the capital again. Looking at the behavior of his parents in the past few days, he had to deceive him to the capital as soon as possible. Otherwise, it is useless to leave as much food as possible.

In the evening, Zhou Jiao began to pack and clean up all the things at home. There's really no need to leave something here, whoever comes to borrow it, it's not easy for parents to refuse, it's better for her to be one-size-fits-all.

The next morning, Zhang's father and his wife started to work again and bid farewell to their parents.

This time, Zhang Guoqing pulled a cart full of items, followed by Zhou Jiao holding his son. Before halfway there, there was a little wood left, and Zhou Jiao was already sitting on it holding the child.

Not long after arriving home, Zhao Yuanyuan patted the door outside and shouted loudly.

"I'll open the door, you look at the child." After speaking, Zhou Jiao glanced at the sleeping peace uneasily.

As soon as the door was opened, Li Qinglin and a few of them stood outside the door with a smile on their faces.

Without waiting for Zhou Jiao to ask, Zhao Yuanyuan snapped her fingers and said cracklingly: "Barracuda crab, abalone, scallops, Wenha, snails... Ouch, my saliva. Want to eat, right? ”

Zhou Jiao was unmoved, let them come in. Waiting so loudly will be misunderstood by the neighbors.

The group entered the living room, and Zhao Yuanyuan's eyes lit up when she saw Zhang Guoqing, "Little fifth brother, Jiaojiao likes to eat seafood." What do you think? I've found the land. To go or not to go? ”

Zhou Jiao pursed her lips and smiled. It seems that the wild cattle hunted by Zhang Guoqing last time made these people taste it, and this will be changed to wanting to eat seafood.

Zhang Guoqing looked at Li Qinglin and them, "Really found the land?" Fishermen come back and sell it to the fishery, you know? ”

Zhang Yuntao glanced at him, "Who doesn't know this." Our class Wang Hai, do you remember? His cousin's home is a fishing village. Now exchange food with their village. ”

Zhou Jiao is not interested in running to the beach again, needless to say that the fishing ground must be far away. The smell of this thing is too big, and there are still a lot of them in her space.

Seeing their excitement, Zhang Guoqing stood up with a smile, "I'll go there with you first." If you can, let them bring it over and we'll eat it at home. It's too much trouble to go back and forth. ”

Zhou Jiao saw that a group of them said to leave, and hurriedly asked him to bring a small bag of cornmeal. Otherwise, it will be more troublesome to run back again.

After going for less than two hours, Zhang Guoqing brought back a bucket and a bamboo basket alone. When I went to the seawater, I didn't have thirty catties together, and I asked for five catties of cornmeal.

Knowing that Zhao Yuanyuan and they all exchanged five catties of cornmeal, Zhou Jiao nodded clearly. No wonder I also changed five catties of cornmeal.

Zhang Guoqing smiled and talked about what happened just now. When they went, Aunt Wang Hai's house was crowded, but everyone had nothing to change. Later, the village canteen changed some parts with them, and several villagers notified their relatives in the county seat to change some.

He saw that the other party would not be able to come over again next time. The road is too far, and the ride depends on whether the unit has arranged a schedule to come here. What's more, these seafood are just eaten fresh and can't fill the belly. Except for a few of their losers, no one is willing to exchange these things.

Zhang Guoqing sent two crabs to each of the neighbors on the left and right, and informed them of the news by the way. I saw that he hadn't entered the gate yet, and the losers Lao Chen and Wang Dasheng had already ridden away.
