Chapter 91 Copying Books

Looking at the puppies that started chasing and playing with each other at the door, and listening to their cheerful barking, Zhao Yunbai felt that no matter which name it was, it could well reflect the characteristics of this energetic yet gentle little creature in front of him.

"Let's call it Momo," he thought for a moment and said, "When you take it apart, it means black dog, which just matches its appearance."

Zhao Chunhua smiled slightly: "Then it's settled. Let's make it the new owner of Momo. How about calling the other one Bubai? Because it's all black."

She tried to find an equally beautiful title for another puppy that was not chosen in her own way.

Zhao Yunbai glanced at his sister with a hint of dissatisfaction, obviously feeling a little disappointed that his suggestion was not adopted.

But before he could open his mouth to express it, Zhao Chunhua quickly defended herself, "I didn't say you have to use it once you choose it. I was just giving you a suggestion for your reference."

There was a sense of playfulness and helplessness in his words.

"Brother San, come and have dinner. Look, Goudan is looking at you."

She changed the subject and spoke softly.

Although the little boy was not really hungry at the moment, he was still very interested in the delicious food that would soon appear on the table.

As there are many children in the family, and considering safety issues, the Zhao family did not lay any soft mats on the floor for the children to lie or crawl on at will, to prevent them from accidentally getting covered in dust or even being accidentally stepped on by others.

At this time, the child was unable to move in Zhao Yunbai's arms. He twisted his little body, as if trying to break free. So he could only stare at the food in front of him, eager to try, his eyes full of curiosity and desire.

In order to prevent the children from making trouble, Zhao Yunbai decided to speed up his eating so that the children would not become impatient or even make a fuss due to waiting for too long.

After dinner, although it was not completely dark yet, considering the journey and what to do next, Zhao Chunhua had to leave this warm family early.

On the way to send her off, Zhao Yunbai and Zhao Yunren also stopped by their neighbor's house to get a stone mill for use at home.

It just so happened that I brought a backpack with me when I went out today, so I could easily carry the heavy stone mill.

The old couple of the Zhao family watched their backs gradually disappearing. Although they felt reluctant, they did not try to keep Zhao Chunhua out of support for their children.

After all, living together may seem wonderful to outsiders, but for individuals, it is more comfortable to live in a familiar cottage and you don’t have to worry about doing anything you want.

"I will come back to visit you often. Eat and drink well at home. Don't be stingy. Prepare whatever you want to eat. If you miss me suddenly, please let Kang Kang and the others send me a message. No matter how busy I am, I will rush to accompany you as soon as possible."

Although Zhao Chunhua didn't like parting with her loved ones deep down in her heart, she still tried her best to comfort the elderly in a light-hearted tone, trying to make the whole farewell process less heavy.

By the time they arrived at their destination, Zhao Chunhua's residence, the sky was already covered with darkness and the surroundings were gradually becoming dark.

She stood at the door and whispered, "The well digger happened to receive another job these two days, but he has promised that once the work at hand is completed, he will bring people to install new well equipment for us. In the meantime, you will have to make do with the existing facilities."

Zhao Yunbai carefully placed Goudan, who had fallen asleep, on the bed, while Zhao Chunhua nodded to indicate that she understood the situation and was ready.

Zhao Yunren slowly walked into the kitchen carrying the heavy but extremely practical small stone mill, making full preparations for the upcoming busy farming season.

At the same time, vegetables such as eggplants and beans that had been dried in the yard were also carefully collected and placed in baskets to prevent them from getting damp or being eaten by insects at night.

The large mats used to dry crops have also been neatly arranged.

It is rolled into a cylinder and leaned against the courtyard wall, waiting for tomorrow's sunshine to spread it out again.

In addition to some scattered grains in the chicken coop, a lot of fresh vegetable leaves just picked from the garden were added as feed, and the drinking water in the bowl was also filled up to ensure that the chickens would have adequate water supply the next day.

Witnessing all this, Zhao Chunhua couldn't help but sigh in her heart: This little girl Zhang Sanbao is really thoughtful and meticulous in her work!

She was very satisfied with such a serious and responsible attitude, but at the same time she couldn't help thinking that maybe she didn't have any special knowledge and skills to impart to the other party.

If she hadn't promised to help her solve her dietary problems, Zhao Chunhua would have been embarrassed to assign such a diligent and hardworking girl to do anything.

It was agreed that meals would be provided without extra charge. This was the condition negotiated by her brother Zhao Yunfeng. She couldn't be so ungrateful as to reject her brother's kindness.

After all, she always remembers how good her brother has been to her. Even though this job is not easy, it is a happiness to be able to spend every day with her family.

Then I'll wait until this help is over and buy a silver hairpin for the little girl as a thank you.

At that time, Zhang Sanbao should be getting married soon. Even if he was not married yet, he would have an engagement, so this would be considered as a dowry for her.

Although she personally believes that sixteen or seventeen is too young to get married, she does not want to go against the society's habitual thinking.

Everyone's destiny has its own trajectory, and it is not something she can easily change alone.

After all, a person's power is limited, and it's good enough that she can take good care of herself.

She is already overwhelmed by the various difficulties in life, and thinking about changing other people's lives is undoubtedly a pipe dream.

So, now I can only take care of myself and try to make myself more independent and strong.

The water in the pottery jar was still warm. Zhao Chunhua gently picked up the teapot and poured a cup of hot water for her two brothers.

After watching them drink it slowly, he handed over the lantern with confidence.

Although this action is simple, it can make you feel the care and love of your family.

The two of them had to return to town under the cover of night.

The path at night always seems exceptionally quiet, with only the faint light of lanterns guiding the direction forward.

Every time I send off the lanterns, they are never taken back. Fortunately, these lanterns are also homemade: a few bamboos are tied together with ropes and covered with a layer of waste paper with words written on it.

Doing so not only saves materials, but also makes the discarded items realize their value.

When practicing calligraphy, I diluted the ink with water, and when the candle was lit, the light shone through the paper very brightly.

This is not only to illuminate the road ahead, but also an artistic enjoyment.

Whenever the lights come on, the soft light can always give a tired body and mind a moment of relaxation.

Speaking of writing, I really should start copying books tomorrow.
