Father Zhou poured a bowl of boiling water, took a bun, sat down, ate a bun, drank half a bowl of water, and left.

When Zhou's father got angry, Zhou's mother came in and watched without saying a word.

Seeing Zhou's father leave, Zhou's mother opened the pickle jar, took out the dried pickles, and soaked them in boiling water. Then she peeled and chopped a few cloves of garlic, filtered the water from the pickles, added the chopped garlic, and added a few drops of sesame oil.

"Sit down and eat!" Zhou's mother said.

Zhou Yu quickly served the porridge, and Zhou Xiang took it and handed it to his mother with a smile.

Zhou's mother tapped her forehead with her finger, looking at the guy who was gloating over her misfortune.

After dinner, Zhou's mother went to work. Zhou wanted to light up the two kangs, and went to check the bathroom. He saw that the washbasin looked almost as if it had just been mopped, and the squat toilet in the bathroom showed no signs of being dry.

I simply went to the firewood pile and got some firewood, built a fire under the sink, and also built another fire next to the squat toilet in the bathroom.

Seeing that there was no adult at home, Zhou Yu planned to have a good talk with his sister.

"Fourth girl!"

Zhou wanted to ignore her.

"Fourth girl!"

Zhou Yu was about to pull Zhou Xiang's clothes, but Zhou Xiang dodged and said, "Mom told me not to call you the fourth girl, and you still do. I'm going to tell Mom and Dad that you like them to call you the second girl."

"Well, think about it!"

"What's up?"

"Did you do that on purpose this morning?"

"How did I do that on purpose?"

"You called me late on purpose."

"Are you sick? I called you from 5:00 to 5:30, but you didn't get up. I got up and heated the kang to wake you up. You said I did it on purpose. Yes, I did, but it was almost 6:00. How could I have called you? I looked! Don't buy a watch, it's useless if you don't get up and open your eyes to look at it."

Zhou Yu was anxious. How could this be possible?

"Sister, I was wrong. You didn't do it on purpose. I didn't get up. Next time, you should just light the kang at five o'clock."

"Really? You're not yelling at me anymore?"

Zhou Yu shook his head. "I won't yell at you anymore. You're heating the kang for my own good."

"Okay, you said it, I'll do it the day after tomorrow morning!"

"Okay, then, that watch..."

"Don't worry, I'll go to the county town after the 15th and will definitely buy it back."

"Thank you, sister, you are so nice!"

Zhou wanted to roll his eyes. His sister was good when there were benefits, but was bad when she asked him to do work.

"Okay, go ahead! And think about lunch and what time it should be made. I get anxious every time I see you getting scolded."

Zhou Yu happily went back to find the cat.

Zhou Xiang looked at his two fires.

"Think about it! Sister! The cat is gone." Zhou Yu came over again.

"Then look somewhere else. Maybe he went out to play! Cats love to run around. They'll look on walls and trees."

"But it's so cold today. Cats are afraid of the cold and won't run out."

"Oh, then I don't know where it went."

Zhou Yu had no choice but to look elsewhere.

After a while, he came back frustratedly, "I can't find it."

"Did it get lost? I'll ask someone to bring one back next time."

Zhou Yu returned to the house dejectedly.

Zhou Xiang thought that cats can climb trees, and the space is full of fruit trees.

He pretended to go to the bathroom to look at the fire and quickly entered the space.

"noob!"

“Meow!”

Zhou Xiang followed the sound and looked up to see a little white cat squatting on a branch and eating an apple.

Zhou Xiang pointed at it angrily and said, "Get down here, or I'll throw you out."

"Meow, meow." The little white cat climbed down the tree and squatted in front of Zhou Xiang.

"Didn't I tell you to be obedient? Who told you to climb the tree and steal the fruit? How dare you steal it if I didn't give it to you?"

After saying that, he thought of his pile of fruits and hurried to check. Fortunately, the pile of fruits was intact.

"You, don't eat secretly. If you dare to eat something I don't give you, it's considered stealing. Don't bother me. Otherwise, you'd better get out!"

It is better to have a quiet space to accelerate learning.

The little white cat meowed twice in grievance, then ran to the roots of the tree and lay there motionless.

Zhou Xiang looked up and looked around, and found that only the apple he had just bitten was bitten, and he didn't see it anywhere else.

Pick this apple and throw it to the chickens to eat. It is better to raise chickens. They can eat eggs and they won’t cause trouble for people. The poop they excrete will be automatically absorbed by the ground in the space.

After training the cat, he quickly went out and continued to look at the fire.

It's a half-day shift, so Zhou's parents get off work at 11 o'clock.

Zhou Yu was still looking for the cat and hadn't made lunch. When he saw his father coming back, he hurried into the house to wash rice.

Zhou's mother shook her head helplessly. When Zhou's father saw his little girl building a fire, he came to see if she needed help.

"Dad, please help me find a carpenter to make doors and windows."

"Okay, Dad will go find it this afternoon."

At half past twelve, Zhou Yu finally called for dinner. While eating, Zhou's father glared at Zhou Yu.

"Why don't you just cook porridge? How can you call it dry rice when the rice is so watery?"

Zhou Yu lowered his head to eat and didn't dare to speak.

Mother Zhou sighed, "Yu'er, when you cook, remember that your dad must eat solid rice and thin porridge. Your rice is neither rice nor porridge, it's too disgusting."

"Oh, I remember that."

Father Zhou sighed as he ate. This eldest daughter was so difficult to teach. If he talked too much to her, she would look aggrieved. If he didn't talk about her, she would not be proactive in doing anything and could not do it well.

This dish is fried, and I don't know how much water is added. I can't stop her from making it. If I don't let her, she will be even worse at it and even lazier.

The eldest daughter has realized it herself. She is terrible at housework and still likes to nitpick. If she and the younger daughter are not arranged to take turns cooking, she will sit with her legs crossed every day waiting for meals. She is more like a grandfather than herself, a living ancestor!

Dinner is easy to make. There are still buns left, so I can heat up the leftovers and cook some porridge.

Zhou Xiang kindly reminded, "Second sister, put a little bit of alkaline noodles in the porridge."

"Why?"

"Because Dad finds this kind of porridge too sour, a little bit of alkaline is enough."

"Then he drank this porridge at grandma's house and didn't say anything!"

"You can personally experience the reasons for this."

Second sister! You are such a fool.

Zhou Yu was scolded again at dinner because she put too much alkaline noodles and the porridge became as yellow as cornmeal porridge.

Alas! Why do I feel that even gods can’t save her?

"My sister asked me to put it there."

Seeing that she was being stubborn again, Zhou's father asked, "How much did she ask you to put in?"

"A little bit."

"Look at the yellow porridge, is it just a little bit?"

"The spoon in the soda bottle is too big."

Father Zhou wanted to slap her, she was always right.

"Yu'er, a little bit means pinching a little bit with two fingers, not a little bit with a spoon."

"Oh." Zhou Yu responded listlessly.

As a result, all the porridge was poured out. It was too bitter and I couldn't drink it.

At night, lying on the kang, Zhou Yu sighed, "Sister, I cooked three meals a day, I feel so tired!"

"You don't know how to manage your time properly. When it's time to eat, you rush around and get scolded by your father. Once you're good at cooking, you feel relieved."
