"Sister, big brother!" He was a little excited.

Liu Man'er was also very happy to see him, the child had never been on an ox cart, so she asked the uncle who drove the cow to slow down and hugged Liu Fusheng up.

The first time he got on the ox cart, Liu Fusheng looked very excited, he couldn't stop looking around, it was obviously a very bumpy road, he didn't feel bumpy, he just shouted excitedly in the car, "Fourth sister, the eldest brother and sister-in-law are back." ”

Well, Liu Man'er was really speechless for his title.

But don't get caught up in the little details.

Seeing Liu Man'er and Ye Yuan coming back in an ox cart, Ye He was also very happy, she ran out of the house, her face flushed, "Big brother, sister-in-law, aren't you going to the mountains, how can you come back by ox cart?" ”

"I'll tell you when I go back." Liu Man'er handed a box of pastries to Ye He, "It's only right to help my sister-in-law move these things in first." ”

"Okay." Ye He didn't know what was in it, but she thought that this box was very good-looking, as if there was a faint fragrance, she liked it very much, and she couldn't put it down.

Liu Man'er and Ye Yuan had just jumped out of the car, and the Fang family also came over with the child in her arms, and after seeing the two of them, she also flashed a trace of surprise and asked, "Yo, where are you two going?" Why do you still buy so many things? Could it be that you are picking up gold? ”

"yes, yes." Liu Man'er said with a smile, she handed over the steamed buns and other food to Liu Fusheng to take, and then took the cloth and cotton off the car, and said, "Mother, we bought cloth and cotton, but when the time comes, I want to trouble you to help make clothes and quilts." ”

"It doesn't matter if I help do it, but you have to tell me the origin of this thing, otherwise, I won't do it!"

Although the Fang clan trusted the character of the two children, she was always a little worried that the two of them suddenly bought so many things.

"Don't worry, mother, I'll talk about it when I get it back." Liu Man'er said while carrying the cotton.

Ye Yuan paid the coachman, took out two steamed buns from the bag Liu Fusheng was holding in his hand, handed them to the coachman, and said, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

"Thank you." Although the two steamed buns were nothing, Ye Yuan's attitude made the coachman very ironed, and after thanking him, the coachman drove the ox cart back.

After all, it will take him some time to go home later, and he can bring two steamed buns to satisfy his hunger on the way.

For Ye Yuan's approach, Fang's also nodded, the family picked up things and entered the courtyard, Liu Man'er put the cloth and cotton in Fang's room, and then opened the brocade box, "Come, mother, taste, this is the pastry I bought from the county, it's delicious." ”

"I don't want it, you children can eat it." Fang Clan hurriedly turned his head to the side.

"Eat, eat, eat." Liu Man'er is unrelenting, she is the kind of person who does not give up until she reaches her goal, she is coquettish and cute, and this fast pastry finally entered Fang's mouth.

"Is it delicious?" Liu Man'er asked with her hands on her hands.

"It's delicious." Fang Shi nodded, but he didn't eat the second piece anymore.

"Eat more if it's delicious." Liu Man'er said with a smile, and then picked up another piece and gave it to Ye Yuan.

With the previous experience of being forcibly stuffed with steamed buns, Ye Yuan only refused slightly, and then obediently opened his mouth.

Next, it was Ye He and Liu Fusheng again.

In the end, Liu Man'er hadn't forgotten the little child on Fang's back.

It wasn't until everyone in the family had eaten the pastry in their mouths that Liu Man'er was satisfied enough to pick up a piece and put it in her mouth, she made a very enjoyable expression and said, "Ah, it's so fragrant, what do you think?" ”

"Delicious, delicious." The two children nodded repeatedly.

Seeing the sincere smiles on their faces, Liu Man'er felt that her heart was contained, and the grievances she had suffered in the county town before were instantly forgotten by her.

"Eat more if it's delicious, and when my sister-in-law makes money in the future, I'll buy it for you."

Liu Man'er said, opened a porcelain white jar again, and the air was instantly filled with a sweet smell: "Guess what's in it?" ”

"Sugar!" Liu Fusheng took the lead in saying.

"That's not right." Liu Man'er shook her head, "Guess again." ”

"Is it a pastry too?" Ye He speculated tentatively.

"That's not right." Liu Man'er shook her head again.

"Is it honey?" Fang Shi guessed.

"Oops, I forgot to buy honey." When Liu Man'er heard Fang Shi say this, she remembered in hindsight, "I should have bought some honey just now, so that we can make a cup of honey water to drink in the morning, so that it may taste much more when we nibble on sweet potatoes again." ”

"Honey is sold in the town, and there is a beekeeper in our village, if you want to buy it, just wait." Ye Yuan said on the side.

Liu Man'er nodded again and again, "I want to buy, I want to buy." ”

Hearing her say this, the three of them knew that they had guessed wrong, Fang's probe wanted to come and see, Liu Man'er covered the lid with her hand, "Don't play tricks." ”

When Fang Shi saw Liu Man'er's action, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Man'er, what kind of treasure is in your jar?" We can't guess. ”

"Can't guess, can you?" Liu Man'er smiled mysteriously, took her hand away, and said, "It's candied fruit!" ”

"Preserves, what's that?" Ye He didn't know, he was a little curious, Fang had eaten it before, so he explained, "It's a fruit pickled in honey." ”

Liu Fusheng looked at it with a blank eye, he didn't know anything, anyway, he knew that the things in it must be delicious.

"Come, taste, I bought dates, plums, and peaches in this jar." Liu Man'er placed the jars in the middle, and each of them took one from it, and then she took the other two jars out of the cloth bag.

"It's so sweet." Eating this date, Fang's face also showed a smile, she has always liked to eat sweets.

"It's delicious, I've never eaten anything so delicious in my life." Ye He also nodded again and again, a candied date, yellow and clear, she was only willing to take a small bite.

"You've got a long time left for the rest of your life." Liu Man'er heard Ye He speak like this, so she said, "When you grow up in the future, what delicious food can't you eat?" ”

"I still ate these dates when my father was alive." Fang Shi said while eating, "It must be quite expensive, right?" ”

"It's not expensive." Liu Man'er actually likes to eat dates, but she generously pushed all the jars of dates to Fang's side, and said: "Mother, you can put these dates at your bedside, no one will eat them, taste one every night, in retrospect, it was sweet all day." ”

At the head of Fang's bed, there was a small cabinet, which was placed on the bed, and Liu Man'er knew that Fang's precious things were resting on it.

"Well, let's eat it." Fang Shi smiled slightly, "Your mother has received your heart." ”

"When the two of them grow up, what delicious food can't they eat? Mother doesn't have to think about us, you can eat it yourself, we still have it here. ”

When Liu Man'er was holding her own snacks like a few family treasures, Ye Qing walked in, and saw his family sitting around the table, he was a little puzzled, and then looked at a bowl of steamed buns on the table, as well as some other food, he instantly understood:

Feeling that he is working in the fields, and these people are eating at home?

"Come, Qing'er, come and eat, this is all bought by your eldest brother and sister-in-law." When the Fang clan saw Ye Qing coming back, he beckoned to Ye Qing.

Ye Qing put down the hoe and said, "No need, I won't eat." ”

"Your sister-in-law bought candied fruit and pastries, can you come and try them?" Fang Clan shouted again.

"I don't like to eat these." Ye Qing said arrogantly.

"This kid." Hearing Ye Qing say this, Fang shook his head and beckoned the others to come, "Okay, leave him alone, he won't eat, let's eat by ourselves." ”

Hearing Fang's words, Ye Qing was a little unhappy, there were three sons in the family, needless to say, the eldest was eye-catching from birth. Now that the eldest brother has just returned from being a soldier, his mother is ashamed of indebtedness to him, and she is always better to the eldest brother.

The so-called people love their children, and there is no need to say that the third child is also very good to him, and let him go to study.

Only himself, this second child, his father died early, and his mother didn't love him, he always had his own way of doing things, and he didn't think of any other benefits, and he knew that he should have been a soldier back then, but unfortunately he was young at that time and didn't succeed.

He went to the backyard to wash his hands sullenly, and when he came back, he saw Fang Shi talking and laughing with Liu Man'er and the others, he was even more depressed, and simply went out, standing on the edge of the corridor, looking up at the sky.

"What's wrong with this Ye Qing? Seems to be on your mind again? Liu Man'er noticed Ye Qing's weirdness, although she had always been at odds with him, but after all, she was a family, so she still said more.

"It's okay, this kid, he's having a temper, I'll talk to him later, and it'll be fine." I have to say that the Fang clan understands his child's mind very well.

"What kind of temper is the second brother?" Ye He was a little puzzled and said, "We let him eat, but he didn't eat either." ”

"Ignore him." Fang said, "I'll talk to him later." ”

"It's just, Yuan'er, Man'er, you should tell me the origin of these things, right?"

Fang Shi looked at Ye Yuan and Liu Man'er, in fact, Ye Yuan was present, even if Liu Man'er was a fool, she was relieved, but she bought so many things at once, including precious things like cloth and cotton, she didn't know the reason, but she was a little worried.

"It's a long story, starting this morning." Liu Man'er opened her mouth and said, "I went up the mountain with Ye Yuan this morning, originally I wanted to go to the mountains to abduct a monkey and come home to domesticate it, but who knows, I took a fork in the road, and I actually encountered a five-step snake on the way......"

"These five-step snakes have a hideous mouth, more than a meter long, and the thickness of an adult ......"

Liu Man'er told her experience this morning like a story, and everyone's appetite was raised, and after Fang heard it, he was scared and surprised, "Later, did I bite you?" Yuan'er, do you have anything to do with Man'er? ”

"We're fine, it's just later......" Liu Man'er just wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Ye Yuan: "Later, we sold it to the county seat in exchange for these things." ”

"Okay." Liu Man'er had nothing to say, so she could only shut her mouth sullenly.

"I see." Only then did everyone put their hearts back, and the Fang clan knew the origin of this money, and finally a heart fell to the ground.
