Chapter Seventy-One: Tired and Happy!
"You didn't mean to?
Is that your sister deliberately knocking herself into a rabbit's mouth? ”
Mrs. Li was merciless and scared her two reckless grandsons.
Jia'an and Jiaxi couldn't see how badly their sister was injured.
I thought my sister was going to be like a rabbit in the future, and she would become a three-petal mouth.
They cried louder and louder, and the sky fell.
Everyone in the family couldn't help but laugh.
Good news too, but a smile hurts again.
She's not really a child either.
Where would you hold a grudge for such a trivial matter?
So, she reached out and ran to the two naughty boys.
Mrs. Li said, "Don't cry, come and hug my sister."
How nice your sister is!
You threw her like this, and she didn't get angry. ”
Jia An and Jia Xi quickly wiped their tears and ran forward.
The two hugged their sister's chubby little body, and their hearts were even more uncomfortable.
"Grandma, we must take a good look at my sister in the future."
"Yes, I won't leave my sister behind again."
Jiayin endured the pain and kissed them on the face.
This little turmoil is over.
The family has another income, and it is so rich.
All young and old were happy, and the lunch was very rich.
Stewed a smoked rabbit.
I cut another piece of pickled bacon and fried cabbage.
Two rice steamed in a large pot, and egg soup was thrown.
Jia An and Jia Xi didn't raise their heads.
When a bowl of rice arrives in your hand, you will see the bottom in the blink of an eye.
Zhao Yuru quietly allocated the rice in her bowl to her son.
Half the size, eat the poor man!
Mrs. Li fed her granddaughter egg custard, and her heart was also pondering.
Jia An Jiaxi is 10 years old this year.
Although he is a virtual age, he is actually more than eight years old.
The family always has to give them a plan for the future...
Jia Anjia likes to eat happily, and they don't know that they are about to end their crazy days...
At night, the whole village fell asleep.
As usual, this is the busiest time for the Li family again.
There is no shortage of manpower to water the fields.
Therefore, only Mrs. Li brought home An Jiaxi to bundle vegetables at home tonight.
There is also good news of drooling sound, accompanied by the side.
It's too tiring to put water and cut vegetables.
She's a little baby, she's simply overloaded.
Mrs. Li was worried about her granddaughter, and she fell and injured herself again during the day.
So, she put two chairs together.
It just turns into a small cradle.
A mattress was laid in the middle, and the granddaughter put it inside, which was safe and comfortable.
Occasionally, when she is idle, she can also shake a fan for her granddaughter.
In addition to the greens tonight, there is also a clay pot of cherries.
Jia An Jiaxi was drooling while bundling vegetables.
Mrs. Li was amused and picked up a few cherries for her grandson to quench his hunger.
"This thing is too expensive, and it will be of great use to the family if you sell the silver.
Just taste it.
After a few days of rain, I want to eat as much as I want. ”
"Rest assured, we know."
"Yes, we don't steal."
The two boys should be happy, and their eyes no longer look at the clay pot.
Mrs. Li couldn't help but sigh.
This damn world is full of natural and man-made disasters.
If it was in previous years, cherries were such a cheap thing, and the children would eat them casually lying on the tree.
Now it's actually a precious thing!
When Jia Yin picks cherries, he is impatient to pick.
There are cherry leaves in the clay pots, and there are also some bad fruits.
But Mrs. Li didn't plan to pick and choose.
This thing is willing to rot when it is wet, so it can only be eaten immediately after washing.
The three grandparents were busy for most of the night, all the vegetables were loaded into baskets, and the roosters were crowing.
Li Lao Er and Li Lao Si also rushed back from the field, and they had to set off immediately.
Otherwise, the villagers would get up early to fetch water, and they would have crashed into it.
The big green mule is very hard, and Mrs. Li specially prepared a cabbage for it.
Daqing took a big bite and set off in good spirits.
Today's cherries are better than yesterday's.
At three o'clock in the morning, the mule cart returned.
The income was fourteen taels, and Mrs. Li was put into the money box again.
The whole family's heart was full, excited and happy.
Silver is the foundation of the whole family's life.
They never imagined that they would leave their homeland and come to a different place.
There will be such a good day!
"Hongying, steam more egg custard at noon, and then cut the meat.
Recently, I have been too tired from work at home, and I have eaten better.
Replenish your stamina! ”
Mrs. Li couldn't hide the joy in her eyes, "There is no shortage of this thing at home now!" ”
Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru both laughed and responded loudly.
At lunchtime, the family ate even sweeter.
But the old men next door were confused.
The Li family is just a few days away, is this planning to finish one meal and one less meal?
An old man wanted to ask about the Li family, but was stopped by Uncle Zhao.
He went in and out of the Li family the most, and there was some vague speculation.
The Li family must have some way to make money, otherwise they would not be so "losers".
They don't have to get to the bottom of it, they just hope that the Li family is getting better and better.
So, watering at night, the old men worked harder.
The saber that had been treasured for many years was also taken out.
Beware of wild animals from the mountains coming down and destroying the crops.
Because of a radius of dozens of miles, the Li family's fields are still a little green.
For the rest, the mountains and forests have all withered and yellowed.
The crops of each family were completely lost.
Everyone was silent as if they had drunk dumb medicine.
They don't know what to say, or they can't ask for help.
When I came to Li's house to fetch water in the morning, the courtyard was extremely quiet.
No one gossips, no one laughs.
Only the Li family is still busy.
Rest during the day, carry water for the crops at night, bundle vegetables and put them in baskets.
More than a dozen taels a day, this silver earns like running water.
It took almost a few days to fill the cash box.
The Li family's mood is extremely contradictory.
I hope that the rain will come from the sky to end this drought.
In my heart, I want to hold on for a few more days, and I can sell more silver at home.
Jiayin is also very tired.
Put the water, cut the vegetables, and pick the cherries.
Even so, I have to think about food for my family and nourish my body.
She took out a lot of meat from the refrigerator in the small courtyard, and almost only fish and shrimp were left.
Even the hens in the yard were all caught by her.
Fortunately, the old hen that had been lying in the nest before was very powerful.
Today, there are more than 40 fluffy chicks who have joined the big family.
The Li family steam eggs, scrambled eggs, stewed meat, stewed chicken, and nourish non-stop every day.
But even the strongest Li Laosi is also much darker and thinner...
That's it, and I survived another half a month.
Finally, one afternoon, a few white clouds drifted in the sky.
Everyone stared at it, not daring to speak, nor daring to hold the firewood to cover the sauce jar.
The rules handed down by the elders are not to grab the rain.
It's just that before the rain, rushing to do things, it's easy to scare the rain away.
I don't know if there is a scientific basis.
But at this moment, there can be no mistakes.
The whole village is extremely quiet, silent, heavy.
Everyone didn't eat dinner, and sat in the dark night, quietly waiting.
Finally, a bolt of lightning pierced the sky, followed by a sudden explosion of thunder.
Bean-sized raindrops crackled down from the sky.
Smash on the rooftops, smash on the treetops, smash on the fields that have been dry for a long time!
"Woo, it's saved!"
I don't know which woman was the first to cry, and it completely aroused everyone's pain and ecstasy.
In the night, countless people ran out of their homes and shouted in the heavy rain.
"It's raining, it's raining!"
Some people even fell to their knees and kowtowed frantically, not knowing what to thank.
The children rushed into the puddle and rolled around hard.
