Xia Weian gave a basket of eggs to Uncle Lao Gen, and Uncle Lao Gen counted them.
“More…”
"The extra ones are for you and Aunt Gen to nourish your bodies. I have plenty at home." Xia Weian said with a smile.
Uncle Lao Gen was not polite, "Okay, let's visit often."
Xia Weian nodded and saw Uncle Lao Gen off. It was still early and it was not time to make lunch.
Xia Weian went back to the river to look for Song Qingyun.
"Studying is also very tiring." Song Qingyun sighed, "Especially since our children have no basic knowledge."
"Yes. I'll catch a few more fish. They say eating fish is good for the brain." Xia Weian said as he bent his trouser legs, tied his backpack to a stone by the river, and went fishing.
Song Qingyun looked at Xia Weian with a smile.
She saw in him a vitality that she had never seen in her previous life, a love and expectation for life.
very nice.
Xia Weian works efficiently and is good at catching fish. I don’t know what happened today, but he was particularly lucky. In a short while, he caught seven or eight big fish and five or six crucian carp.
Normally there aren't any big fish in such a shallow river.
"The backpack can't hold it anymore." Xia Weian said with a smile.
"We can't eat so many at once, so we might as well raise them so we can eat fresh ones every day," said Song Qingyun.
"Okay, put them in the space. I'll find a bucket." Xia Weian said, looking around to make sure there was no one there, and entered the space. He left two big fish and two crucian carp, and put the rest in the bucket in the kitchen.
Xia Weian took the tools to process the fish and left the space again. He cleaned the fish by the river and would put them directly into the pot when he returned.
"Weian, are there crayfish and rice field crabs in the rice fields this season?" Song Qingyun suddenly remembered the domineering night food stalls in his previous life.
"There must be quite a lot of crayfish, and the rice field crabs should still be small. I'll go and take a look after I finish the house work." Xia Weian said.
"By then my waist will be fine, and I will cook for the children myself to improve their meals." Song Qingyun said with a smile.
"Okay." Xia Weian swallowed his saliva. Needless to say, he also wanted to eat.
The couple talked for a while, and then it was almost time, so they went back to the courtyard and went straight into the kitchen to start working.
Xia Zhiyao glanced at her parents, then quickly looked away and studied hard. Her parents worked so hard for them to get good grades, so there was no reason for her not to work hard too.
Every stroke of the pen was more solemn.
Sui Chengxiao nodded with satisfaction. The girls of the Xia family were really smart.
In the kitchen.
Xia Weian first cut two crucian carps into a straight line and fried them until both sides were golden brown. He then put the crucian carps into a casserole, added ginger slices and boiling water, boiled it twice, added scallion knots, and then covered the pot.
Xia Weian used one stove to steam rice and another stove to cook a big pot of fish.
The aroma soon wafted out of the kitchen.
Gu Xu touched his stomach and found that he was always particularly hungry when he was at Uncle An's house.
Lu Huailin kicked Gu Xu.
Gu Xu came back to his senses. He was teaching the two little ones addition and subtraction within ten, and he couldn't make any mistakes.
Lu Huailin looked at Xia Changle opposite him, and the corners of his lips curled up. Changle was a smart girl. She could have fun when playing, and when she sat down to study, she could quickly immerse herself in it without being disturbed by the outside world.
In the words of his third uncle, such a person can accomplish great things.
In the kitchen.
Xia Weian cut two plates of persimmons and sprinkled white sugar on the yellow ones, which looked appetizing.
"A cold dish and some fried eggs will be enough." Song Qingyun said.
"Okay." Xia Weian responded cheerfully and quickly prepared lunch.
Only after the food was served did Xia Weian go out to call everyone to come and eat.
Sitting at the dining table, Gu Xu felt extremely happy, "It smells so good."
"My parents' cooking is delicious!" Xia Changle said crisply.
"tasty!"
The children praised the food happily and everyone was very satisfied with the meal.
Sui Chengxiao felt that it would be fine if he just stayed with Xia Weian...
After lunch, Sui Chengxiao let the children rest for fifteen minutes and then gathered together to study.
Xia Zhihuan and Xia Suihe can take a nap, but the naps of the other girls are cancelled.
Xia Zhihuan and Xia Suihe immediately expressed that they would work as hard as their sisters.
Sui Chengxiao nodded silently. This is a good family tradition. The younger children look up to the older ones, and the older ones set a good example for the younger ones.
Xia Weian cleaned up the kitchen, helped Song Qingyun back to the room, let her lie on the kang to rest, and went to the backyard and opened the back door.
At that time, they didn't think about building a house in the backyard, as they had already planted vegetables in the backyard.
Xia Weian pulled out the seedlings neatly and found another place to plant them in the corners.
There is really no place to farm...
Xia Weian simply nailed a few racks out of bamboo and hung them against the wall. He then used bamboo to nail large rectangular flower pots and put all the side dishes in the pots.
There is a place to plant the seedlings.
After working on it for a while, I finally got it done.
Uncle Lao Gen also brought people to deliver adobe bricks.
"Uncle Lao Gen, Second Brother Wang, Third Brother Zhao, thank you for your hard work." Xia Weian greeted them happily.
"Third brother, it's not hard." Several honest men smiled and stacked the adobe bricks neatly against the wall. They had taken a huge advantage. Even if someone from the same village who had a good relationship with them asked for adobe bricks, they would give them to him.
Xia Weian really gave them eggs. Eggs are good things, and the wife and children in the family love them very much.
They will come to help Xia Weian build a house tomorrow. They will provide meals and wages. There is no such good employer in the entire commune.
Everyone chatted happily with Xia Weian for a while, and Uncle Lao Gen asked them to go back first.
