Seeing off the aunt of the Han family, Yun Xue turned around and went back to the house.

"Eldest sister, what do you say aunt are here for? Just to come and see us? It looks like it's not bad, but who knows what's going on in their hearts? Yun Zhen shook his head, for the people of the old Han family, they all instinctively had a sense of resistance.

"Don't care what they think, let's open our own doors and live our lives, and no one can expect it. If they are good, they will have some contacts, and if they are like those people in the old Han family, the big deal is that they don't have contacts. You just treat them as people from the village, and it's over, and in terms of human contacts, it's almost the same. Yun Xue chuckled.

It happened that Yun Ting and Yun Lei came back from the school, and everyone hurriedly washed their hands and ate. At this time, there is really nothing good to eat. It was Yunni who took the time to dig up some shepherd's cabbage and mother-in-law in the morning, and fried some sauce with meat, and the other was pickles. But the children didn't care about that, and they still ate deliciously.

"Eldest sister, Grandma Zhao said that her family wants to hold some ducklings and geese, and ask us if we want it." Yun Ni remembered this and asked Yun Xue's opinion.

"Yes, then why not. If you raise ducks and geese, you can also pickle some salted eggs or something, and you can have one or two more dishes on this table. Yun Xue hurriedly said. However, we can't ask for it in vain, and we have to give people money when the time comes. ”

After dinner, Yun Xue and Yun Ni cleaned up the kitchen, and then the two sisters took advantage of the light to collect the soles of their shoes. There are many children at home, and it is expensive to wear clothes, Yunxue has to work in the field during the day, and she has no time to get these. Yunni is young, and in addition to laundry and cooking during the day, she also has to watch the children, so she can only find time to do a little at night.

"Eldest sister, it seems that the rhubarb lady hasn't come back for a few days? I don't know where they have gone. Yunni held an awl in her hand and pierced her eyes on the soles of her shoes.

After thinking about it for a while, Yun Xue remembered that the rhubarb mother and son seemed to have not come back for two months. However, this is normal, Xiao Huang is an adult, and the mother and son will be separated sooner or later. Xiao Huang will create a world of his own, instead of following his mother's side. And rhubarb, if you don't get it right, you should fall in love again and have children, maybe, in the autumn, rhubarb will lead the little tiger again.

Yun Xue told Yun Ni about some of the habits of the Siberian tiger, but Yun Xia on the side crawled over and muttered about the nurse. Yun Xue put down the needle and thread in her hand and picked up her sister. "What? Our little sister misses your nurse? ”

Yunxia nodded, "Nurse, I think." The little guy lay on Yun Xue's shoulder and yawned. This little guy is very well-behaved, and he generally doesn't sleep much during the day, and goes to bed early at night. After dinner, she was basically going to bed.

Yun Xue hugged Yun Xia and gently patted her back, and after a while, the little one fell asleep.

Yunni hurriedly went to lay out the futon, and then the two sisters took off Yunxia's coat and put it in the quilt.

"This little thing is really worry-free. If we change to the kind of crying and screaming all the time, we will have to worry a lot more. Yun Xue looked at her little sister sleeping and couldn't help but sigh.

After settling Yunxia, the two sisters talked and chatted while doing needlework, until the middle of the day, when they lay down to sleep. In the middle of the night, there was a sudden commotion outside. Yun Xue's ears were more sharp, so she sat up at once, and quickly put on her coat and went to the ground.

Yun Zhen and Tianfu of Westinghouse also got up, and the three of them met in the outhouse. "Eldest sister, you stay at home with your younger brothers, and Tianfu and I will go out to have a look." As soon as Yun Zhen saw Yun Xue, he hurriedly said.

Yun Xue pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Then you should also pay attention, if there is anything, hurry up and speak out, don't be reckless." Yun Xue instructed two sentences.

Yun Zhen and Tianfu held sticks in their hands, opened the gate, and walked towards the place where the sound came from. Yun Xue closed the gate at home, and then walked back and forth in the yard, listening carefully to the movement outside. After about half an hour, Yun Zhen and Tianfu came back.

"Eldest sister, Gao Li people on the other side, there are about 20 of them, and they came together. We had so few people patrolling at night that we almost couldn't stop them. Just now all the people in the village have gone out, and they have already beaten those people away. Alas, this court doesn't have a charter, and if we keep making trouble like this, we will suffer sooner or later. Yun Zhen told Yun Xue what had just happened.

Since last year, the village has begun to organize patrols, but there are few patrols, where are the opponents of more than 20 people? As soon as the patrolling saw that things were not good, they quickly sounded the gong, and the young men of the village went out to help.

The war on Gao Li's side has been going on all along, and I heard that it is about to spread to Gao Li's capital. Many of the people of Gao Li fled to the north, and these people in the north also suffered greatly. Now it is the spring ploughing season, and the people there have no food to eat, so some people have crossed the river and want to come and get some food to eat.

Fortunately, everyone was prepared, so there were no losses. This kind of thing, although everyone sympathizes with them in their hearts, is not something that ordinary people can solve. It may be easy to provide them with a bite to eat, but the survival of their country is not something that these people can help. Only when the country is strong can the people be protected from infringement.

However, if their country is really strong, the people of the Great Zhou will suffer. That's the way it is, there are two sides of the same coin, there are pros and cons. Gao Li and Da Zhou are only separated by a river, if Gao Li's soldiers are strong and strong, I am afraid that the villages along the river in the Great Zhou will fall under Gao Li's iron hooves. Therefore, for these Gao Li people, the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty generally stay away.

"Okay, let's go back to sleep, we're going to start farming tomorrow, have a good rest, and then we have the physical strength to work." Yun Xue plugged the door, and the sisters and brothers went back to the house to sleep.

At the beginning of April, every family started farming. The Han family has a total of more than 30 acres of land, and several children started to work early. There is a lot of land this year, and Yunxue and they have arranged for all kinds of grain to be planted. Soybeans and corn are all planed into the seeds, millet, millet, sorghum, these are dug out of the furrows, and then sprinkled in the seeds. The most troublesome thing is to plant sweet potatoes, and it is necessary to plant sweet potato seedlings into the ground one by one, which is the most labor-intensive.

Yun Ting and Yun Lei also came back from the academy to help with farming. Everyone gets up early and is greedy for darkness, and they go to the ground early every day and come back when it is almost dark. Xiao Yunxia naturally sent it to Grandma Zhong again, and Grandma Zhong asked several daughters-in-law in the family to take the time to help. Even so, it took almost half a month of busy work to plant all the land.

The big guy finally breathed a sigh of relief, so much, it's really tiring enough. "Eldest sister, Tianfu and I will go get some fish and come back, let's have a good meal in the evening." In the past few days, the big guys haven't eaten well. It happened that the work in the field was finished in the first afternoon, and Yun Zhen saw that there was nothing to do in the afternoon, so he said that he would go and catch a few fish and come back.

"Okay, then you have to be careful." These days, it has indeed boiled down the big guys, so Yun Xue naturally has no objections.

Yun Zhen is a good hand at catching fish and shrimp, which is easy to do. He and Tianfu went out with tools.

Yun Xue and Yun Ni sat at the gate, still holding the soles of their shoes in their hands. This thing is just two stitches that are idle on weekdays, and the little ones add up, and you can save yourself when you use it. Yun Xue's hands are stronger, and the soles of her shoes are very dense.

And Xiao Yunxia also picked up from Grandma Zhong's house and was playing in the yard.

"Eldest sister, you still have the energy, the sole of this shoe is strong. I'm almost done, you see, the line seems to be a little loose. Yunni compared the results of the two people, and was a little dissatisfied with herself.

"It's good to wait until you're older, in fact, you shouldn't be allowed to do this kind of work at such a young age, you are almost the same as sewing insoles now." Yun Xue sighed, there are no adults in the family, and these jobs have to be done by their sisters. I went out to earn money again last year, and it is rare for Yunni to be able to do such a job at a young age. "Usually when the eldest sister goes out, you are tired." Yun Xue said apologetically.

"Eldest sister, look at what you said, you are much more tired than us outside." Yunni smiled.

While the two sisters were talking, Yun Zhen and Tianfu returned. The two of them were very excited, carrying baskets in their hands, and rushed back. "Sister, we caught several fish, and a small basket of shrimp. By the way, there are some galas. Tianfu grabbed the placket of his clothes with both hands and said excitedly.

Gala is a kind of local language of theirs, which actually refers to things like clams and river mussels. The Yalu River produces the top of the garden pearl mussels, the folded crown mussels, and the locals call these gala. At this time, it is the season for these aquatic creatures to reproduce, and it is relatively caught.

"Okay, throw the gala into the water and slow down, and we'll fry it with chili peppers tomorrow night." Yun Xue smiled, "Hurry up and put your things down, look at you, you don't bring more household goods when you go out, just come back with your clothes." Hurry into the house and change your clothes, don't catch a cold again. ”

Yun Zhen and Tianfu hurriedly went into the house to find a few buckets and basins. The big fish were all put into the tank, and the river shrimp were poured into the bucket, and the gala was put into the basin.

"Eldest sister, let's go again, get a little more, and send some to Grandma Zhong's house later. Brother Tiezhu and they were all in the river just now, so there was no need to send them to Grandma Li. Yun Zhen said, took the family belongings, led Tianfu and left.

Yun Xue didn't stop it, the Zhong family didn't help their own family, and if they had good things, they should send some to others. Human relations are like this, they are all two good and one good thing, you can't just accept help from others, and there is no feedback at all, right?
