Startled awake, Yan Xiaonan didn't open her eyes. She knew she was still in this era, surrounded by the scents of her grandmother and mother.
I thought about modern cell phones during the day yesterday, and then I dreamed about modern times last night. It's true what they say, what you think about during the day, you dream about at night.
Thinking of the black and yellow Siberian tiger in the movie, I wondered if I had traveled into the movie.
Unfortunately, this was my first time watching this movie, so I had no idea what happened next. How tragic!
Xuemei and Cuihua were always the first to get up. Grandma also got up, constantly rubbing her back, saying that she couldn't sleep comfortably on her own kang (heated brick bed).
Yan Xiaonan decided to stop worrying about it. She got up and saw Cuihua packing her luggage. She took out a small floral handkerchief from her pocket and said, "Mom, floral water."
Cuihua quickly found some floral water, put five or six drops into her handkerchief, and placed it on the outside of the handkerchief. The car smelled terrible, so she would apply more floral water later.
Breakfast consisted of Yan Xiaonan's favorite fried dough sticks and soy milk. Yan Xiaonan was surprised that such things were sold in this place, and she ate with her eyes squinting.
Southwest remembered this place. He would buy this for Nannan when he went to college. The sesame seed cake, fried dough sticks, and soy milk cost one cent, which was a bit expensive, but he could save some money himself.
Yan Xiaoqiang asked his grandmother to take Cuihua, Xuemei, and Nannan to the hospital to take a 50-cent bus fare, while he took the two boys back the way they came. The three of them could save 90 cents.
Grandma disagreed. She said if we were to sit, we should all sit together. There was no reason for us to be separated. Besides, it was only nine cents. What was so special about it?
Yan Xiaoqiang then remembered that his mother still had a huge sum of two thousand yuan on her. He raised his head and said, "Let's go, let's take the five-cent bus back."
Bei Nanxi Nan and Xue Mei didn't know what kind of car the five-cent car was, but they knew from the price that it must be better than the two-cent car, so they happily followed along.
Yan Xiaonan looked at her father, who was leading the way with his head held high and chest out, and her grandmother, who had a "I'm rich" look on her face. She hugged Cuihua tightly, hoping that her mother would stop being so smug.
The group arrived home in the late afternoon. Zhong Nan was lying in a cool spot in the yard, sticking out his tongue. When he saw Nan Nan, he quickly came over. Yan Xiao Nan gave him a disgusted look; he smelled terrible.
Zhongnan went out with his head down. He was going to take a bath in the river. Sigh, have you ever seen a wolf that bathes every day? That's me.
Xuemei and Cuihua rushed into the kitchen, having skipped lunch, to quickly cook.
Southwest had North and South feed the chickens and rabbits in the yard, and he went to the henhouse to collect eggs. In just two days, there were nearly twenty eggs in the henhouse.
Xi Dexin handed a basket full of eggs to Grandma Yan, saying, "Grandma, my chickens are amazing!"
Grandma Yan looked at the basket of eggs on the kang table, took out her pipe, and took a satisfying puff. Life was getting more and more interesting.
Yan Xiaoqiang went to the backyard to build a grape trellis. His daughter wanted to plant grapes, so he planned to build the trellis first and then sow the seeds in the fall so that the grape vines could climb more easily.
Another day passed, and Xuemei and Grandma Yan secretly took Nannan up the mountain. This time they wanted to get some cotton, because in the north, people would be wearing thick coats in October.
Yan Xiaonan inquired about the cotton planting and harvesting process and learned that the most important aspects of cotton harvesting are removing the cotton seeds and cleaning the cotton.
The three of them reached the plot of land halfway up the mountain. Yan Xiaonan closed his eyes and sowed the seeds into the ground. In the blink of an eye, cotton stalks sprouted one by one.
More than a dozen fruit branches appeared on each fruit branch, then cotton plants appeared, and then began to grow wildly, with thousands of cotton bolls bursting open and snow-white cotton flowers exploding.
Then the fruit branches began to break and wither. Several acres of land were covered with snow-white cotton, but in the blink of an eye, the cotton disappeared.
The dead branches on the ground were buried when the soil was turned over, becoming nutrients for this land.
Cotton has reappeared on the clean land. This time, the cotton is flying around, like popcorn, bursting open one by one, with the cotton seeds inside falling out one by one.
Yan Xiaonan carefully stored the cotton, after removing the seeds, into her spatial storage. When the last cotton boll was thrown into her space, Yan Xiaonan collapsed softly to the ground.
Grandma Yan and Cuihua were shocked and quickly picked up Yan Xiaonan. When they saw Yan Xiaonan's face was as white as paper, they were so heartbroken that they could only shed tears.
However, as expected of the head of the Yan family, Grandma Yan instructed Cuihua to call Yan Xiaoqiang over, as all the cotton seeds on the ground needed to be disposed of to cover up the crime.
Cuihua knew that listening to her mother was definitely the right thing to do. She glanced at Yan Xiaonan, gritted her teeth, and ran down the mountain.
Yan Xiaonan's superpower was finally exhausted. It turned out that planting and harvesting did not consume much of her superpower; the real drain was on separating the cotton seeds from the cotton.
Yan Xiaonan knew there were still cotton seeds on the ground that hadn't been cleaned up. She had originally wanted to try her best, but she was too small and couldn't hold on any longer.
Yan Xiaoqiang was originally worried about the mother and her daughters, but the village needed to cultivate the soil deeply so that the wheat could be grown at a high yield, so he thought he should earn ten centimeters first.
But he still felt uneasy, so while everyone was resting, he asked the village chief for leave and ran up the mountain.
Halfway up the mountain, he encountered Cuihua rushing down the mountain. His heart skipped a beat, and he knew that something was wrong with Nannan. He immediately took off running up the mountain.
When he saw Yan Xiaonan sleeping soundly in his mother's arms, his heart ached, and tears welled up in his eyes.
Grandma Yan pointed to the cotton seeds scattered on the ground and said to Yan Xiaoqiang, "Qiangzi, hurry up and bury these. It won't be good if someone sees them. Nannan must have used up all her magic power. She'll be fine after a nap."
Yan Xiaoqiang still had the shovel he used to dig the ditch in his hand. When he saw Cuihua coming up, he quickly told Cuihua to take her daughter back first, and that he could leave things here to him.
The two women carried Yan Xiaonan straight home, taking the path behind the mountain, a path no one dared to walk on. Cuihua was worried about potential accidents, especially since Yan Xiaonan was unconscious.
Looking at Grandma Yan's serious face, she dared not say anything. Grandma Yan was also worried, but she was more worried about being seen by the villagers. People's words are a fearsome thing, and Nan Nan must not have any bad things spread.
Zhong Nan appeared out of nowhere, and the two men visibly relaxed upon seeing him.
Perhaps because Zhongnan was there, the path remained calm until they arrived home, at which point Zhongnan turned and left.
He had to keep an eye on Yan Xiaoqiang; wild boars liked to roam around at this time of year, and it wouldn't be good to run into them.
Cuihua quickly filled a basin with water and carefully wiped her little girl with a towel, tears streaming down her face as she did so, filled with regret.
Grandma Yan sat in the main room, secretly shedding tears. Her poor little darling had worked so hard for the family.
From now on, everything in the house belongs to Nannan. The boys will be separated after they get married. Don't think you can just sit back and enjoy the fruits of our labor because of our precious baby.
