"Whew!" With a scream, Li's half-open mouth was a mouthful of mud.

Lin Tao, who was in a hurry, pulled out a thorn from the fence wall and walked briskly towards Li Yi.

Li Yi was not stupid, he looked at the thorn strip in the old lady's hand, turned around and was about to run.

But when he passed in front of Li Er, he tripped under his feet and fell!

Before I could get up, the strip fell on my body.

"Why is your face so big? Well? ”

"Oops! I—I was wrong! Mother, won't I say it? It hurts! ”

The screams were so frightened that no one dared to come up and pull them.

The second elder of the Li family covered his ears and turned around and went back to the small courtyard.

Zhu Donghua didn't even look at her man, and followed Li Si to carry the ladder to get water.

Lin Tao only twitched a dozen times, and the thorn strips in his hand were broken raw.

"I—I'm in and doing something." Li Yi fled back to the courtyard with a crawl.

Here, Li Si leaned the ladder against the fence and beckoned to Li San: "Third brother, I'll hold the ladder for you, you go up and lift it." Sister-in-law is on the line below. ”

Li Er, who had been hiding far away before, had nothing to do, so he also followed to help with the ladder.

On the other side of the wall of thorns, four buckets full of water were delivered.

"If it's not enough, I'll pick it again."

"Enough is enough!" Lin Tao hurriedly responded: "Sister Wang, thank you!" ”

"Ahem! Look at what you say! You saved my daughter-in-law's life! A few buckets of water is nothing! You don't have to save it, what should you do! It's gone, if you shout, I'll pick it up for you! ”

"Okay! Thank you. ”

thanked him, and Lin Tao also asked the third child to hand the bucket back.

After collecting the ladder and going back, Li Er kept complaining: "How can four barrels be enough?" Our water tank is only half of it! ”

Lin Tao slapped a melon peel on Li Er's head: "People must know how to be considerate and grateful!" Aunt Wang can think about our family's water affairs, and she is already very friendly! In this world, no one owes anyone! ”

Li Er touched his head, hid around by himself, and didn't hide from the old lady's hand.

depressed, he muttered unconsciously: "Why don't you owe it?" I owe you a life! A few buckets of water is nothing! ”

Lin Tao turned around and twisted Li Er's ears: "Since you also said it, people owe me!" Then don't use this water! If you want to drink water, go up the mountain and pick it yourself! ”

"Huh? Mother! You're not serious, are you? Li Er's voice was crying.

"When have I not been serious?"

This time Li Er was dumbfounded! Follow the old lady and smoke her own mouth.

Who calls it owed!

With water, the second elder quickly pasted the cake and cooked the porridge.

It's just that in the morning, there is only porridge to eat, and the cakes are brought up the mountain.

After packing up, Lin Tao led everyone except the two little ones and the second elder to go around to the back mountain and set off into the mountain.

Because the means of transportation were too limited, this time she was prepared.

The harvested tartary buckwheat is laid on the spot, and only the tartary buckwheat is put into a basket to take home.

When the back basket was full, the woolly buckwheat on the mountain seemed to have not been harvested.

"Such a big piece, let alone winter, I'm afraid our family will eat for two or three years, and there will be no problem." Li Si wiped his sweat with one hand, and rubbed his waist with the other, which had been bent for most of the day and was sore.

Li Yi and Li Er, who were only beaten in the morning, also had smiling faces at this time.

"That's it! If those people knew that our family had no land, and as a result, we harvested the most grain, and I don't know what to be angry about? Hahaha, it's so happy to think about it! ”

Li did not complain about working too hard.

Li Er also followed Meizizi's joy.

Look at Li San again, always only do things and don't speak.

Not affected by others, always like no one else.

With this temperament, if you are born in a rich family, read and write, you are also a good hand!

In the past few days of coming here, today is the first time, and there is no chicken feathers flying and dogs jumping on the ground.

There is no prevarication and scheming between brothers.

Such days are actually not bad!

The sky was yellow, and when he was about to go home, Lin Tao cut some vine grass and covered the back basket tightly.

She didn't want to let others see it on the way back and cause some unnecessary trouble.

If you want to say that this person is really afraid of anything, he will come.

When I went out of the mountain, I really met the villagers who were going home after working in the fields.

However, when those people saw her, let alone say hello, they ran so fast!

Lin Tao didn't care, and walked to the back mountain of his small courtyard.

Just like last time, when I got home, it was already dark.

The two little ones sat in front of the courtyard gate, playing with small stones, and when they saw her, they flew over.

After entering the small courtyard, Lin Tao asked Li San to clean the empty water tank, planning to use it to hold tartary buckwheat noodles in the future.

If you want to say that there are more fences in the door, it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise!

At least, she will be in the yard tomorrow to cool off tartary buckwheat, and no one will see it, right?

In the following days, Mrs. Wang would still send four buckets of water every morning.

After Lin Tao taught the second elder how to deal with tartary buckwheat, he took a large family to the mountain to harvest every day.

Then, I saw that the tartary buckwheat noodles were about to fill the big water tank. This is sad for the second elder.

On this day, as soon as Lin Tao came back, the second elder said: "Peaches, the jar is full, don't collect the tartary buckwheat on the mountain first, right?" Take it back, and there's no place to put it on. If only the family had money, buy a few more vats and come back, and our family will have a better time this winter! ”

Don't look at these days, this big family is too busy to land.

But their faces were full of satisfaction and joy.

"It's okay, I'll take some tomorrow and sell them in town."

Anyway, the ones that are confiscated on the mountain, let alone eat for a winter, even for a year, there is no problem.

"You want to, you want to sell?" The old lady was the first to stand up and object: "As long as it doesn't rain for a day on this day, the grain will become more and more expensive, and if you sell it now, you can't afford it in the future, but what's the matter?" ”

The old man dragged the old lady: "Look at you, are you in a hurry again?" How many times have I said it, family affairs, listen to Peaches! ”

This time, the old lady slapped her thigh: "Look at my memory!" Why did you forget it again! Sell, sell, sell! Peaches said to sell it, then take it and sell it! Don't remember to say me, old man, next time you will remember too! Our family, Peaches has the final say! ”

"Yes! Remember! ”

The second elder talked and laughed, and went into the stove shed to work.

Now because there are so many tartary buckwheat noodles that they are almost empty, the second elder feels sorry for his grandchildren and daughters-in-law, and increases the previous ration of cakes per person to three per person.

It's just that white rice porridge, so thin that it's about to turn into rice soup.

After eating these days, that bit of rice is about to bottom out.

While eating, Lin Tao arranged tomorrow's work.

"If you can't go out from the village road, the ox cart won't be able to go. You can only walk on your back! Xu's you and the old family, Ming'er went up the mountain to continue harvesting. The four of them, follow me to set up a stall. ”

mentioned walking to the town to set up a stall, and everyone who looked up was Li Yi, who was once lazy and possessed.

But this time, he learned to be obedient, only looked at the old lady, and didn't dare to say anything.
