Ye Chenghu sat on the ground and played for a while, before he felt a little bored, everyone picked oranges there, and he sat there alone to eat.

It's sour after eating too much, and his teeth can't stand it, and he can't be idle.

After raising the two rings with oranges, and enclosing the two turtles, he climbed up the hill again and came to his father's side.

"Dad, I'm going to pick it too."

"Enough to eat? The teeth are all soft for you, and the short one next to you is just right for you to pick, go ahead!"

Ye Chenghu touched his cheeks, feeling a little sour, and didn't dare to eat it anymore.

The child was not determined, but after a while he turned his head to look at his two turtles, and made sure that they were still in the oranges, and they ran back to continue picking them with confidence.

It's not too troublesome to go back and forth several times, and I don't stop working honestly after being scolded a few times.

Ye Yaodong and they asked the tractor to send it directly today, the speed was a little faster, it was only nine o'clock when they arrived, and after eating the snacks, plus the time to catch Wang Ba on the road was delayed, and it was more than ten o'clock when they went up the mountain.

It hadn't been picked for two hours before he heard Mother Lin calling for dinner below.

Turning her head to look over, she was carrying two bamboo baskets with a flat pole, and there were two buckets and two soup pots in the baskets, one bucket of bowls, one bucket of rice, and the soup bowl contained vegetables.

Hearing that it was time to eat, the children screamed and threw down their work, and immediately rushed down, but Ye Chenghu found that his two kings were missing, and instantly cried.

"I surrounded it with oranges, why did they crawl away?"

Ye Yaodong also saw that the orange castle he had piled had fallen, and he looked left and right, but he didn't see it.

"What are you crying about, just look around here."

Everyone followed together, and finally found one in the grass in the distance, and another fell down the small dirt slope, lying there with all fours facing the sky, waving its limbs wildly.

"Grass, it's a long run."

Ye Yaodong carried both of them to the bamboo basket where Mother Lin sent the rice, "If you put them inside, you won't run away, let your grandmother take them back later."

"Leave one here, I'll keep an eye on him and don't let him run away."

"Whatever you want, if you run away and die, I'll beat you."

Ye Chenghu pouted, he knew how to scare him all day long! Haven't you been beaten before?

"Hurry up and eat, it's been a busy morning, it's time to be hungry."

Ye Yaodong felt okay, he had just eaten dim sum at nine o'clock in the front, he only filled half a bowl of rice, and sat on the ground, lunch was three dishes, a bowl of potato and pickle soup, a bowl of dried fish he brought, and a bowl of scrambled eggs with leeks.

A group of children stretched out their hands towards the scrambled eggs with leeks, filled their bowls with sharp points, and were scolded a few times before they began to eat.

One by one, they quickly pulled the food, and after eating, they excitedly ran to the corner to play with turtles.

They chatted while eating, and most of them talked around Ye Yaodong, asking him about the situation of going to sea and how he had gained......

After chatting casually, after eating, everyone continued to work non-stop.

All afternoon, everyone was picking oranges on the mountain, and there were people on the next hill, all picking oranges.

Today's daytime weather is good, the sun is more than nine o'clock, but a little windy, it is still a little comfortable to bask in the sun on the mountain and pick oranges at the same time.

It's just that in the afternoon, the sun retracts into the clouds early, and the wind is strong, and it is a little cold when it blows.

When it was about 4 o'clock, the eldest brother-in-law asked him and his brother-in-law to help them, bundle up the bags of oranges, and carry them to the cart at the bottom of the mountain, and he wanted to send the oranges to the commune, and the purchaser would go to the commune to collect them at about this point.

Others continue to pick them, and the rest can be sold tomorrow.

But the children are no longer in the mood to pick, they are all secretly hiding to the side to play with the king, and the adults also turn a blind eye, and they don't expect them to do it from beginning to end, and they can help pick a little is a little.

It wasn't until it was a little dark that the brother-in-law called it a day.

child

They all cheered and rushed straight down the mountain.

Ye Yaodong saw that there was still a small half piece on the top of the mountain, and it was estimated that it would take another day or two to finish it.

The cart has been pushed away by the brother-in-law, and the remaining bags of oranges, each of the four adults carries a bag of oranges.

Several children jumped in front of them, fell, rolled and got up and continued to run, no matter how the adults told them to be careful and walk slowly, all of them were the wind in their ears.

"Ye Chenghu, remember to bring the grapefruit you just picked." Ye Yaodong shouted at him.

Ye Chenghu braked instantly, went backwards, and held the grapefruit that he had just thrown off into his arms again, and he couldn't hold it even if he thought about it, and he was still holding the turtle in one hand.

He licked his face again and asked his eldest cousin Lin Guangyuan to help him get it, and then he rushed forward with a grin.

The youngest one, with the loudest voice, shouted that he would take them to the river to see the king......

Ye Yaodong had to trot to keep up with the orange behind him, but before he could take a few steps, he heard another cry in front of him.

「555…… My eggs... My eggs are gone, they're shattered... 555…」

Ye Yaodong heard the sudden pain in his brain, and ran up to see Ye Chenghu squatting on the ground, tears flowing, and one hand was still scooping up his broken egg liquid in the broken eggshell.

"Who do you blame for accidentally? It's all broken, hurry up, there's not another one in your pocket, don't break it again, if it's broken, you won't have anything to eat at night."

He wiped a handful of tears aggrievedly, "I was careless, it fell out of its pocket on its own."

"If you don't run, can it fall? Give me a good walk, and if you throw me into the water, I'll take off my pants and beat me."

"Dad, let's wait and look for duck eggs by the river, shall we?"

"Where's the time? Don't you see that we are carrying oranges, go home first, it's dark, hurry home and eat."

I don't know where they got so much energy, and they can still be alive after picking oranges all day, and they still want to play.

Sister-in-law Lin and Sister-in-law Lin also scolded and scolded a few children not to be mischievous, and hurried home for dinner, and then they looked at the river and walked back reluctantly.

Then a few people who exchanged ears said that they would come back tomorrow to look for wild duck eggs, and they happily shared the process of coming to the river to look for wild duck eggs in the past......

After passing the section of the river in Dawangba, Ye Chenghu still had a good memory, so he stopped and pointed it out to them, saying that it was under the river.

Just as they were excitedly about to climb down, they were scolded by the adults again, and they regretfully gave up, and then they could only trot and continue to walk back.

Lin Xiangyang also glanced curiously when he approached the river, and then asked Ye Yaodong, "Did you really see that big king?"

"Well, when I passed by in the afternoon, I saw two small turtles, and when I came down to catch them, I happened to see that there was a basin the size of a basin underneath."

"There has always been a rumor in the village that there is a big king in this river who is blessing us, and it has been passed on for many years, and I heard that someone caught it before and released it back, but I haven't heard of it in the past few years."

"That's supposed to be! It's that big, it should be a hundred years."

Ye Yaodong was sure that it was just a turtle in Zhenhe, the wild one grew so big, it was rare, and the old people who couldn't become fine would believe it.

"Possibly. The small one can be caught, but the big one can't be moved."

"I know."

Didn't you see him empty-handed?

A group of people trotted to the house one after another, and Mother Lin had already cooked a large table of fragrant meals, waiting for them to come back to start the meal.

Ye Chenghu took out the wild duck eggs in his pocket with an aggrieved face and handed them to Mother Lin, "Grandma, can you help me stew the duck eggs?"

"And another?"

At noon, when she was on the mountain, she still offered treasures, and took out two dazzlings, and she wanted to bring them back to him, but she refused, saying that she wanted to put them in her pocket.

"Fell out of my pocket and smashed it when I was going down the mountain."

"So carelessly, then this one will be left for you to eat tomorrow morning, and the evening meal is available, so eat first."

。」

"Okay."

The children of the Lin family are not less than their Ye family, the two brothers gave birth to three, and the other gave birth to four, and as soon as the table was served, it was full of children.

They have long since separated, and they will eat together when they are busy working and farming.

There are many people eating together, and the noisy shouting at the dinner table is the screams of children, this hand is not long enough, and he can't catch the dish, so he screams there, and that one says that others have too many clips, and he also wants to ......

The roof of the meal is torn off, and the adults in the house can eat cleanly and peacefully until the children have eaten and left the table.

Ye Yaodong had been clean for a few days after he broke up, and now he was eating with another family, and he felt that his braincase was about to collapse, and he had been in sudden pain, and he was relieved after all of them got off the table.

It's really scary to have so many children!

Some of the older generation still have seven or eight, more than a dozen, such as his mother's brothers and sisters, plus the cousins, they will be all together during the New Year...... It's horrible......

He quickly shook his head, but luckily he only had three at most!

Hurry up and take a sip of soup to suppress the shock.

His mother-in-law stewed rice wine with sea bass, sea bass is very good for wounds, everyone knows it, so no one touched the bowl of sea bass soup on the table, only the children ate a little.

Everyone only eats the hot and sour soup boiled by the dragon head fish, and when the weather is cold, the sour and spicy ones are eaten into it, which is particularly appetizing and warm.

Except for the vegetables on the table, the others were brought by him, and Lin Mu also steamed a large plate of starfish.

He has eaten enough at home in the last few days, and he didn't want to eat it for a long time, but he still took one to his wife, and just now he saw her feeding her youngest son.

When I came to my mother-in-law's house, I had to behave well.

He broke the starfish from the middle position, divided it into petals one by one, took one petal and broke it from the middle, and then saw the starfish's meat, and then put it in her bowl and let her eat it directly in the soy sauce sauce.

This starfish will have diarrhea after eating too much, and he only peeled one and didn't do it again.

Mother Lin saw it and started chattering again, saying why did he send so many over?

How do you finish eating......

Don't bring anything over next time......
