"Third brother, what's wrong with you, something happened in the village?" Old Man Tai hurried over and asked.

Tai Sanye looked up and saw that it was the old brother, so he gave way to the side and divided the position of the roots of the tree in the rising sun.

Old man Tai took the cigarette purse and filled the old brother's cigarette pouch and pot with tobacco.

Tai Sanye took two sips, spit out green smoke, and his frowning brows finally opened.

"Sixth, I don't think this year is very good, and I always feel that there will be a big drought! You see, it's the end of March, and it's about to be the beginning of April, and there hasn't been a drop of rain yet.

"It stands to reason that if it's a good year, it should rain twice at this time, at least there is no shortage of water in the fields. But...... Ay! ”

Tai Sanye sighed for a long time, the field is the life of the farmer, whether the family can eat and dress warmly, they all count on this piece of black land.

But God sometimes does not show mercy, or droughts, floods, hailstorms, and strong winds, can destroy everyone's hard work and hope for a year at any time.

Obviously, God's mood is still not very good this year......

Mr. Tai has been busy building yards at home and wooden houses in the mountains recently, and he really doesn't care too much about the rainy weather.

Listening to what the elder brother said at this time, he was also stunned in his heart, and after thinking about it carefully, he opened his mouth to persuade, "Third brother, don't get angry, where is it at this time, it's still early for spring ploughing." Maybe it will rain the day after tomorrow, and one rain will be enough to farm the land. ”

Tai Sanye was powerless to raise his hand, and pointed to the red and bright fire clouds in the sky, and at this time silence was better than sound.

The sunset is brilliant, tomorrow must be a sunny day, where is the rain!

Old man Tai was choked, and he couldn't do it, so he could only sit silently with his brother.

Children never know the sorrows of adults.

On the other side, Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue had already joined their "little soldiers", and were shouting to divide the team, planning to take advantage of the bright sky to have another evenly matched "battle".

It's a pity that Zhuzhu, the fat girl, is caught in the middle, running east and west, and making trouble, causing the boys to be in a hurry, for fear that they won't be able to avoid running into her.

In the end, Chunhong came out to greet her, stepped forward to hold Zhuzhu in her arms, and saved the boys from the battle.

At this time, many villagers came back from the field and saw that the old man and the patriarch were under the tree, so they came over to gossip.

Tai Jijin and Sun Meihua also walked among them, and as soon as they looked up, they saw Chunhong.

The two were in a trance for a while, and they almost didn't recognize each other.

Although Chunhong arrived at Tai's house for a few days, she was well fed, clothed and warmly slept, making her like a dry willow tree, quickly sprouting and full of vitality.

The original yellow hair, always stained with broken grass foam, was now cut in half and cleanly washed, except for two small braids, tied with red rope, and hung down on the shoulders.

The sack that has been worn on his body all the year round to cover his shame has been replaced by a half-worn brown dress, and a pair of two-cotton narrow shoes are on his feet.

The collapsed cheeks were plump, and the hemp rod-like arms were also fatter, and even the dark complexion seemed to be a little whiter.

The little girl who used to live in the pigsty and would die at any time has changed her appearance, and she is no different from ordinary girls.

Tai Jijin was weak-hearted, and quickly turned his head after just one glance.

But Sun Meihua stared at her daughter and looked at her again, looking very excited, as if she was happy for her daughter.

It's a pity that Chunhong's gaze at them is extremely calm, even indifferent, like a stranger.

"Zhuzhu, the second aunt wants to make wild vegetable cakes, let's go in and have a look."

Chunhong hugged Zhuzhu and walked back, Zhuzhu was worried about playing with her brothers, and was a little reluctant.

Chunhong smiled and said, "Those stinky boys will throw dirt at each other when they make trouble, our beads are so beautiful, if they are smashed, they will become little dirty children!" ”

In addition to being greedy, Zhuzhu is also a lover of beauty, and immediately changed her mind when she heard this, hugging Chunhong's neck, urging with a milky voice, "Sister, go away!" ”

Chunhong giggled, hugged Zhuzhu, and soon disappeared behind the courtyard gate.

Sun Meihua stepped forward, as if she was about to call her daughter, but was pulled back by Aunt Tai.

Aunt Tai lives close, and of course she is indispensable for everyone to gossip here.

Just now, Sun Meihua's appearance, she has long seen it in her eyes.

At this moment, she pursed her lips and counted Sun Meihua, "What are you going to do!" What's the matter, you still want to go back to Chunhong? Don't be ashamed!

"Chunhong was going to die of illness before, and your family was pretending to be blind. Now that the eldest daughter-in-law has cured Chunhong, cleaned up from head to toe, and finally looks like a girl, you are moved again, and you remember that she is your daughter? ”

Sun Guihua blushed from being scolded, pulled the corners of her clothes in embarrassment, and whispered in defense, "I'm not, I'm just ...... I just want to ask her how she is doing? ”

"No matter how bad it is, it's better than sleeping in a pigsty at your house!" The third aunt was unceremonious, and her speech was not good.

She is a warm-hearted person, and she is very good to her daughter-in-law on weekdays, not to mention her own daughter.

Therefore, for a ruthless mother like Sun Meihua, she can't wait to open her mind to see what she thinks.

Sun Meihua was really shameless, and left in a hurry under the pretext that she had a job at home.

The rest of the villagers didn't hear it, not to mention that they were more concerned about it.

"Patriarch, it's not going to be a big drought this year, is it? It's not a good day! ”

"yes, I look the same as the year before. The first rain only fell in July the year before last, and there was no wild vegetables to eat, and my father starved to death that year! ”

"Hey, God doesn't open his eyes, is this going to starve the people to death?"

Everyone was gossiping, and what they said was that Tai Sanye was worried about.

But he could only say a few words to his old brother, but he couldn't show a little worry at this time.

After all, he is the backbone of the villagers, and if he collapses first, others will be even more angry.

"It's all nonsense, the rain is good this year, it must be a good harvest year. There is still half a month before the land is planted, and a rain during this period is enough, so what is the hurry. ”

Tai Sanye scolded with a smile, "God was going to have the wind and rain go well, so you should be angry when you say this." Keep your mouth shut for me, work hard, and sow seeds when it rains. ”

The villagers were scolded, but they were more at ease, and hurriedly rushed to the top of their heads, hoping that God would not worry about them.

Old Man Tai and Third Master Tai glanced at each other, and sighed in their hearts......

Early in the morning of the second day, the old man Tai wanted to take Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue into the city to buy a herbal medicine album.

Of course, Zhuzhu must follow.

Learning from the lesson of the last time, the old man simply asked his daughter-in-law to find a back, and carried his granddaughter firmly on his back, planning to never leave his body.

The big black horse pulled a cart, and it was much easier for the family to get in and out.

The old man deliberately took Yongning with him, but he really felt sorry for this grandson who was locked up at home all day.

But Yongning was sensible and didn't want to cause trouble to his grandfather, so he smiled and excused himself, "Grandpa, I still have to help my mother teach the children in the village to read, it's not good to leave." If the calligraphy and painting shop has cheap straw paper, buy me a knife to practice calligraphy. ”

The old man couldn't, so he could only promise to come down, and then get in the car and set off.
