Zhou Cuihua and Li Yuanlang, the second son of Village Chief Li, said with a smile: "In this way, the younger brothers and sisters of the Yuanqing family are really powerful. It's only been a long time, and the local dialect can be spoken. ”

"Not only that, the business we talked about with the Wu family's grain shop was all negotiated by the Yuanqing family, so we can sell it at such a high price, and we don't have to go to Baisha Town to sell it." Zhou Cuihua was grateful, and hoped that the family would be grateful to Liu Paner, "Let's open up the wasteland together, there are few adults in the Yuanqing family, but a few older children will also pick up grass roots." In addition, Yuan Qing's family also said that during the opening of the wasteland, she took care of everyone's meals. ”

Zhou Cuihua's youngest son, Li Yuanqi, was immediately pleasantly surprised when he heard this, "Mother, is this true?" Yuanqing's sister-in-law provides food? ”

"By the way, her family eats better than ours, do you think she will give us a bad meal?" When Zhou Cuihua said this, she turned her head and glared at her eldest daughter-in-law, her eyelids were shallow.

Yuanjia's daughter-in-law smiled and did not continue.

Yuen Long's daughter-in-law has been eating with her head bored, anyway, there are father-in-laws and mothers-in-law in this family, even if the father-in-law and mother-in-law can't be the masters, isn't there still a grandmother?

Anyway, it's not her turn to be a second daughter-in-law, and with this kind of work, it is better to eat more vegetables and meat, so that you can have the strength to work.

Mrs. Li smiled, "Next time I have to talk to the Yuan Qing family, make soybean stewed pig's feet, I love to eat that thing." ”

The matter of partnership to open up the wasteland was decided in this way.

Liu Paner couldn't go to work in the fields, so she made noodles the night before, got up early the next day, put alkaline water and began to mix noodles to make round cakes.

I sandwiched the marinated water and cucumber shreds in the round cake, made a whole basket, and burned a pot of thin rice porridge, and heard that Zhou Cuihua's family also got up and beckoned, "Auntie, I'm ready for breakfast, eat some and go again, I can't work on an empty stomach." ”

When they were cleared before, they had no food, so they could only eat green vegetable dumplings.

Now that the conditions are good, Liu Paner will not let everyone go hungry.

Zhou Cuihua carried a basket on her back, carried farm tools, brought a lot of water, and dry food at home, "Yuanqing's family, no need, we also brought dry food." ”

Liu Pan'er saw that they didn't come, so she left a few cakes, so she put the remaining meat sandwich cakes in the basket, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law and village uncle, may be embarrassed to come to our house for dinner." You bring these with you and share them with everyone. ”

Liu Shi responded, and happily responded, "The third brother and sister can rest assured, I know it in my heart." ”

Liu brought water, cakes, and farm tools, and followed behind the village chief's house with a few children.

The same is true of the village chief's family, and the half-grown children also have to go to the ground, so Liu Paner did not stop her children.

When encountering different environments, it is necessary to adapt to different environments, which is the best way to survive.

Liu Paner packed three finished meat pancakes and personally sent them to Grandma Li, and there were also old people and two children at home, "Grandma, I'll bring you the cakes, they just made them." ”

Grandma Li smiled and beckoned, "I'm not polite to you, I'll accept it." ”

Liu Pan'er nodded, "Grandma, don't be polite to me." When they come back in the morning, they must come to my house for dinner, or I will be embarrassed to take half of the wasteland. ”

"Okay, then I won't be polite to you." Grandma Li responded, "It's not dawn yet, you still have children at home, hurry up and take a look." ”

Liu Pan'er nodded, "Grandma, then I'll go back first." If you have something, you can ask your child to come and call me! ”

Grandma Li nodded, "Okay, don't worry!" ”

Liu Paner came back and began to wash clothes in the big basin.

These are the clothes that I changed from last night, and the whole family is up and down for eight people.

After washing the clothes, seeing that Li Xiaobao and Li Nan were still sleeping, he locked the bamboo door from the outside, and carried the washed clothes to the river to clean them again.

At this time, the sky was just slightly bright, and Liu Paner was the only one washing clothes by the river.

Fortunately, it was summer, and the water in the early morning was not too cool.

When Liu Paner hung the washed clothes on the rope, she heard Li Xiaobao and Li Nan lying on the edge of the bamboo door calling her.

Liu Pan'er wiped her hands and ran over to open the lock, "It's still early, can you sleep for a while?" ”

Li Nan shook his head and replied in a milky voice: "Mother, I want to help you work!" ”

Liu Paner couldn't cry or laugh, these two children just didn't make a mess, and they had to help with the work.

However, this is a good intention, which is worth encouraging, and Liu Paner cannot discourage the enthusiasm of the children.

Liu Pan'er smiled: "Okay, there is a broom, you sweep the door!" Come back later to grind the beans for me! ”

Li Xiaobao took two brooms and gave one to his sister, and the two of them began to sweep the floor very seriously.

They are a little shorter than the broom, and they are trying to sweep the floor.

The funny appearance made Liu Paner laugh.

Liu Paner lifted the oilcloth covering the stone mill and cleaned it again with clean water.

When the two children cleaned the door, Liu Paner beckoned the two children to wash their hands and start breakfast.

The porridge in the pot was very thin, Liu Paner fished out some rice for the children, and then ate it with soft dough flatbread and braised pork, and ate it with relish.

As for the remaining rice soup in the pot, it will be spoiled after a long time, Liu Paner filled most of the pot and sent it directly to Grandma Li and Aunt Li, which could not be wasted.

After eating, Liu Paner brought over a pot of soaked beans.

Liu Paner sat on the stool, and Li Xiaobao and Li Nan stood on both sides.

Liu Pan'er pointed to the spoon in the basin, "Now you scoop the beans with a spoon and pour them into the round hole on the top of the stone mill, let's start grinding the beans." ”

Li Xiaobao's eyes were quick, he grabbed the spoon first, scooped a spoonful of soaked soybeans, and poured them into the round hole on the stone mill, "Mother, isn't that so?" ”

Liu Pan'er nodded and praised, "Yes, that's it, Xiaobao did it right." ”

Li Nan pouted, unhappy, "Brother, you said you wanted to let me, why did you rob me?" ”

Liu Pan'er smiled, while holding the handle on the stone mill and began to slowly turn the small stone mill, "Then you can each have two spoonfuls, in exchange, so that you can help me work." ”

Hearing this, Li Nan was happy and hurriedly urged, "Brother, hurry up, you have just put a spoonful, and if you put another spoonful, it will be my turn." ”

Li Xiaobao nodded, scooped another spoonful of soybeans and put them in the round hole, and handed the spoon to Li Nan.

Li Nan's hand was not as stable as Xiao Bao, the spoon shook and a few fell on the ground, but she was not in a hurry to pick up the soybeans, but after putting two spoonfuls, she returned the spoon to Li Xiaobao, "Brother, I will pick up soybeans, you help your mother scoop the beans first." ”

Li Xiaobao responded, "Okay, pick it up, and wash it." ”

"Hmm." Li Nan obediently picked up the soybeans that fell on the ground from the ground, cleaned them, and put them back in the pot.

Liu Paner was very relieved to see that the two children could help each other and find a suitable way to deal with it.

Li Nan tilted his head, stared at his big eyes and asked, "Mother, what are you doing grinding these soybeans?" ”
