The Su family had little land but many people, so they quickly cleared the weeds from that plot of land. The two younger ones were working for the first time and were so tired that they didn't want to leave.

Liu Huan, hands on her hips, limped and groaned, "My back!"

Su's mother laughed and scolded, "Where would a little kid like you get a back? Do you want me to carry you?"

"No, I'll walk myself." Liu Huan wasn't going to be that dramatic; everyone was tired from working.

My legs trembled a little after squatting for a long time, but otherwise it was bearable.

Seeing this, Shi Tou squatted down and said, "Come here."

Okay, I was proven wrong.

This time she didn't refuse, or rather, she wanted to cultivate a relationship with the male lead—a childhood sweetheart sibling bond, how wonderful!

Xiao Shi originally said that he was a man and didn't need to carry anything, but when he saw that Huanhuan had to carry something, he begged his older brother to carry him too.

Father Su shook his head from behind: "Only these two little ones are so lucky."

The year Liu Huan arrived home, the imperial court encouraged land reclamation and exempted him from taxes. For the past three years, he has been tending to the reclaimed land, and he no longer eats gruel every day. He has become much more energetic, which is truly a blessing.

Liu Huan and the other person had never done any work before, and they fell asleep from exhaustion halfway there.

When Cao'er returned and saw them, she was stunned. She helped put the two of them down and asked, "How long have they been here?"

Su's mother chuckled and teased, "Of course! She even said she wanted to buy your dad a cow."

Cao'er took a handkerchief and wiped the two people's faces, hands, and feet. Hearing this, she chuckled and said, "Then I'll wait and see what they can buy for me."

When Shi Tou covered her with a blanket, he heard her muttering in her sleep. He leaned closer to listen and heard her counting money, "One coin, two coins..."

Stone couldn't help but tap her on the head: "Money-grubber."

Seeing her frown, he patted the blanket to soothe her, afraid of waking her up.

She slept so much that she missed dinner time, and when she woke up, her whole body ached.

Cao'er heated up some food for the two of them, feeling both sorry for them and scolding them: "You two are really something, you can't just come back after you've finished working, it's not like we're missing two people. What are you trying to do at such a young age? Don't wear yourself out, do you want me to feed you?"

Grass shook her head, holding a spoon. "No pain, no gain!" Ho ho ho!

But the thought that as long as you can endure hardship, there will be endless hardship... sigh~

He then vowed, "No! I must make money!!!"

After finishing his meal, he forgot all about the vow he was about to make and went to sleep, not waking up until noon the next day.

Still half-asleep, I greeted everyone: "Good morning, everyone!"

Everyone was used to her being like this. When she woke up in the morning, Xiao Shi would even say, "Good morning, Huanhuan."

Cao'er used a hot towel to wipe her face, while Xiao Shi kept saying "shame on you" from the side.

Liu Huan proudly replied, "Mind your own business. My sister just likes me."

Perhaps because she didn't receive love from her parents, siblings, and relatives in her past life, this life is her way of making up for it, allowing her to meet such a wonderful Su family and such wonderful relatives.

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again, Cao'er quickly advised, "Alright, stop bickering and go eat."

I ate brown rice for lunch because I had to go to work later. I'll eat porridge for dinner and then go to sleep.

The brown rice of ancient times was not the kind that people eat to lose weight in modern times. It was the lowest grade of rice, with the husks still on top, hence the name brown rice. It was a bit rough on the throat.

Liu Huan needs to chew for a long time before she can swallow, which the other members of the Su family like because it's filling.

Shi Tou eats very politely. Even when it's his favorite food, he doesn't wolf it down and you can't even tell his emotions. This shows that he is someone who can achieve great things.

After finishing their meal, Liu Huan pestered Su's mother, asking, "Mom, does anyone in our village have a rooster?"

Su's mother asked, puzzled, "Why are you asking this?"

Liu Huan: "I was just asking."

After thinking about it carefully, Su's mother realized that she had indeed thought of it: "Your Aunt Lian's family has some. They bought it last year, and your brother Zhuangzi needs it for his wedding this year."

Except for those getting married, villagers generally don't raise roosters, because they don't lay eggs and they eat a lot of them.

Liu Huan's eyes lit up: "Then let's go to his house and buy some eggs!"

Su's mother thought Liu Huan wanted to buy eggs because she was craving them. "Huanhuan wants to eat eggs? We have some at home. I'll ask your sister to cook one for you and Xiao Shi each in a bit."

Liu Huan could only explain, "Oh no, I... I wanted to use it to hatch chicks."

Grass passed by and splashed cold water on her: "Don't bother with your nonsense. No one in our village has ever succeeded."

Liu Huan naturally replied, "That's because there are no roosters. A baby needs both a boy and a girl to hatch, so the chickens must be the same."

Everyone froze in place after hearing her words, and Cao'er ran away shyly, asking, "What are you talking about?"

Stone asked her with a stern face, "Who taught you that?"

Liu Huan's heart skipped a beat. Oh no! She'd forgotten how subtle ancient people were. How was she supposed to explain this? Waiting for an answer online.

He forced a smile and explained, "That day I was digging for vegetables, and I heard it from another auntie."

Aunties, I'm sorry, you'll have to take the blame for this for now.

Su's mother scolded, "Those old lewd women, what nonsense are they spouting in front of the children? You're not allowed to listen to what they say from now on, understand?"

Liu Huan nodded vigorously: "I understand, Mother, about the eggs..."

Su's father, puffing on his pipe thoughtfully, said, "Then let's try ten."

He listened to Liu Huan's words and thought they made sense. If the eggs could really hatch, the family would have an income.

With the head of the household speaking, the others naturally had no objections.

Su's mother tapped her forehead and scolded with a smile, "You always have so many clever ideas. If they don't hatch, you can't waste them next time."

"Mmm," Liu Huan was deeply moved. In her previous life, apart from her grandparents, no one had ever indulged her like this.

When Su's mother went to buy eggs, Liu Huan told her not to tell anyone, "Do you think your mother is stupid?"

Xiao Shi was envious and said he wanted to hatch chicks too, but Da Shi stopped him, saying, "Don't cause trouble."

I was so upset I almost cried. Why can Huanhuan do it, but I can't?

Liu Huan stepped forward and grabbed him: "Brother, let's hatch them together, and then we can feed the chicks together, okay?"

She wants to involve her whole family.

Xiao Shi then beamed with joy, "Okay, Huanhuan is the best, I like Huanhuan the most." Xiao Shi was with Liu Huan every day, and his words were influenced by her.

Liu Huan laughed and said, "I also like Little Brother, and I also like Stone, and I also like my parents, and I also like my sister, and I also like Big Brother."

She rattled off a list of all her family members.

She's a child now, and children should express what they like.

Without a care in the world, she ran up to the stone, her eyes crinkling with a smile: "Stone, you are my absolute favorite."

Stone was melted by her smile, which was incredibly gentle. He patted her bun and said, "I know, you have to be good."

Liu Huan knew he would say that. As a three-year-old, she thought she was very well-behaved.

He snorted and took Xiao Shi to Xiao Hong's place. The two of them whispered among themselves and even figured out where to build the chicks' coop.

Father Su and Da Shi went to the fields, but they didn't go. They just waited for Mother Su to bring back the eggs.
