A layer of mud fell on the rice pot, but fortunately, the lid was tightly covered, and as soon as the lid was lifted, the sweet smell wafted out, and the yellow, orange, orange, and white sweet potato rice inside was not stained with a little soil.

After a hurry, the yard was finally clean, He Mai swept the soil to the side of the yard, turned around and smiled embarrassedly at the Qin family, "Milk, you're hungry, let's eat!" ”

Qin Shi answered, helped bring the rice on the stove into the house, put it on the small table on the bed, He Mai hurriedly went to take out the food on the stove, put the two hot buns on the side of the dish, and brought them into the house.

"Milk, eat buns first!" He Mai smiled sweetly and picked up a bun from Qin's stoneware bowl.

Qin Shi was carefully looking at the brand-new pair of bamboo chopsticks in his hand, and was about to say something, when he saw that there was an extra bun in the bowl, he was surprised, and then said: "Hemai, you can eat it, the milk is not good for this thing." ”

He Mai said: "Milk, this is what I bought for you, I don't like to eat this thing, you can eat it, or I have to buy it for you next time." ”

She showed the old lady the sweet potato rice stewed at noon with a smiling face, and said, "A bun can't fill your stomach, milk, this is the rice I bought last day, you can taste a bowl in a while." ”

How did the Qin family not know that this was a change of law for her granddaughter to let herself eat something delicious, and the wrinkles on her face moved into a flower, "Hemai, you are growing your body and eating more, what is grandma doing when she eats these good things at a young age?" ......"

The more she said this, the more He Mai put vegetables in her bowl, and Qin Shi was very useful, and hurriedly said: "He Mai, don't clip it, grandma just eat......

Lin Hemai saw that Qin's sandwiched the pork belly and put it in his mouth, so he asked reassuringly: "Milk, is it delicious?" ”

It's delicious, why isn't it delicious, Qin only felt that the pork belly melted in her mouth, and it was extremely soft, which provoked her to swallow a few mouthfuls of rice again and again, and said: "Hemai, the milk went to your second uncle's house during the day......

He Mai's heart moved, raised his eyebrows, put down the dishes and chopsticks, and asked, "Milk, they didn't bully you, right?" ”

The old lady showed a bitter smile on her face, and said softly: "Why did your second uncle say that it is also my son, and he can't make his face too ugly." Your second aunt is not at home, and your second uncle poured a bowl of tea to drink with me! I also heard from your aunt Xiujuan about your second uncle's family, so I went over to take a look this morning. ”

He Mai nodded silently, and continued to eat with his head down.

Qin continued: "Your second uncle was still busy cleaning up the house, so I didn't want to follow the chaos and came out, so I somehow walked into the field. Hey, it's spring now, the land is being cultivated, and the land is being shoveled. At this time in previous years, I was in good health, although your second uncle was reluctant, but he could also be pulled out by me, two people tended to the land, your father can usually come back when the farm is busy, our mother is busy in the field, and he doesn't speak, just work, your father and I don't know that we are tired, but your second uncle is always hungry and thirsty, and we will let him. Hey, look at our family's field this year, more than 20 acres of land, and there is not even a figure! ......"

The old lady's tone became more and more sad the more she spoke, and her eyes were red.

Lin Hemai knew that before her father Lin Changjun died, he was the pillar of the Lin family. The house where Lin Changxi lives now, the livestock in the backyard, and the food and clothing of Lin Changxi's family, which one is not earned by Lin Changjun's hard work?

The old lady said that in the first few years, Lin Changjun also followed the dart cart to transport darts and earned a lot of silver, all of which was filled into the family.

Now Lin Changjun is gone, and the more than 20 acres of land at home have nothing to do with the Qin family......

Lin Hemai had a headache when she thought of this, looking at the old lady's expression, her sad emotions turned into a wave of energy rippling in her chest: Lin Changxi and his wife have bullied their ancestors and grandchildren, and she will definitely ask for it back in the future!

Thinking like this, He Mai comforted the Qin family softly, "Grandma, let's think about those past things, what about you and me?" Sensei, I'm about to get married, but I'm not far away! From Yang Liulang's house to our house, it's just a kung fu of incense, and in the future, I will still call you to get up every morning, carry water, carry firewood, cook rice, and serve the small vegetable patch on weekdays, feed the chickens, and talk and work with you, how good, isn't it? ”

Qin pursed his lips and smiled, "You girl, your mouth is so sweet, okay, can you come back often?" It's too late for grandma to be happy! However, you also have to ask if Rokuro Yue is pleased. When you get married, you need to take care of other people's hearts to ......"

He Mai smiled: "Milk, I know!" ”

At the end of the day, Lin Hemai soaked some rice and prepared some porridge for dinner.

After soaking the porridge, He Mai closed the door of the small courtyard and went to the stream next to the house.

Early in the morning, she went to fetch water, and saw the small fish in the water scurrying in piles towards the bank of the river, and she couldn't help but want to catch some.

This little fish is very difficult to catch, the current is fast, the fish swim fast, not to mention that the wheat does not have decent utensils.

It was still the place in the morning, He Mai looked around, threw off his shoes and socks, and pulled up his trouser legs carefully, then squatted down, took out a shabby short coat from his waist, and looked at where there were many fish on the shore, so he took out the short coat and quietly rushed to that place.

This requires some stamina and steady, to be calm, and to have a certain amount of strength in the wrist, where did the average girl do this? But Hemai is very good at doing this kind of concentrating and exhausting work.

The river was still very cold, constantly washing over Hemai's feet and calves, but Hemai thought that the doctor had said that eating some fish and shrimp would help the old lady's condition, so he soaked in the water for a day.

When I went ashore, the skin of my toes and thumbs was white and wrinkled, and I had to pay a lot of hard work, but the harvest was not satisfactory.

The little fish was really small, but the length of the thumb was very flexible, and the ones caught in the barrel probably added up to less than two catties in a day's work.

He Mai sat on the shore and dried his legs and feet with a short coat, and then put on his shoes and socks after drying, and walked a few steps back to the shore only to find that his legs were a little disobedient, afraid that he had soaked in the water for too long.

At this time, the sky was getting dark, she looked at the small fish spread on the bottom of the wooden barrel, thinking that there would still be a harvest this day, at least she could make a dish of fish sauce, and it would be good for the Qin family to eat, and that would be enough.

When he pushed open the courtyard door, He Mai saw that Qin Shi took the needlework in his hand to the window, and continued to sew by taking advantage of the light of the sky that was not completely dark, and he felt very uncomfortable.

It was the clothes, shoes and socks that the Qin family prepared for her to marry, and each of them was extremely delicate and exquisite, and it was also made by the Qin family for countless days and nights.
