The sky cleared up, and the adults in the old Song family became busy. Although it had stopped raining, there was still water on the road. Song Aiguo and Song Aimin had to continue digging a channel to clear the accumulated rainwater.
By the way, when it rained a few days ago, everyone went out to work spontaneously. At that time, everyone was only thinking about the crops and didn’t think about work points. Later, Song Yuangang said that each person would get an extra ten work points a day.
Ten work points! Everyone was surprised when they heard it.
Those who went were happy, while those who were lazy and didn't go were regretting it to the core.
When Mrs. Tian found out, she was furious. She never expected that Song Yuangang would give so many work points, ten work points!
She thought again, she shouldn't have let her two sons cover the corn seedlings at that time, otherwise they would have caught a cold if they hadn't gotten sick.
Moreover, this time, Ma Zhenggang and Ma Zhengqiang had a really serious cold. It had been several days and had not gotten any better. Instead, it had gotten worse. Their noses were hot when they spoke, and they had a slight fever.
There was no other way. Seeing that the condition was not improving, Mrs. Tian asked Ma Zhenggang's wife to go to the clinic to ask Old Yang for medicine.
As a result, not only did she not earn any work points, but she also had to pay for medicine, and her two sons also suffered. Mrs. Tian was filled with resentment when she thought about it.
At Old Song's house, Feng Guizhi and the others had gone to work in the fields, leaving the little ones at home. They wanted to go out and play, but the roads were difficult to walk on. They couldn't even go to the back mountain to pick up cicada shells.
Everyone was happy that it finally stopped raining, but now that they couldn't go out, their mood became depressed again.
Song Jianshe thought about it and decided to take them out for a walk: "Uncle will take you to pick crabs, do you want to? The road outside is not easy to walk on, and if your clothes and shoes get muddy, you have to wash them yourself."
The eyes of the younger ones lit up when they heard this: "Picking crabs?"
"But aren't the crabs by the river? How do we pick them up? We can't go by the river. The mud is soft after the rain. What if we fall into the river?"
"Yeah, if grandma finds out, will she scold us?"
The younger ones were a little excited, but also a little worried.
Song Jianshe was amused. "We shouldn't go to the big pond. If we go there, your grandma will definitely kick me out with a broom. It just rained, so a lot of crabs will run into the fields. Let's look for them there instead of going to the river."
The little ones were relieved and immediately cheered: "Pick up the
Crab Go!
"Ahhh, it's time to go out and play!"
"I've been so bored staying at home these past few days. I can finally go out."
Seeing that the little ones were so happy that they almost jumped up, Song Jianshe couldn't help laughing too.
After a while, Song Jianshe said something to Li Qingyan, then went to the west room to talk to Song Jianye, and then took the children out.
Thinking that her clothes would get dirty, Baoya changed into her old clothes and shoes. She would feel sad if the new clothes got dirty.
The road outside was covered with mud, making it extremely difficult to walk. Fortunately, a pair of footprints had been stepped on the side of the road, and several people walked along the footprints without getting their shoes or pants dirty.
However, this road is only a short distance away. When you walk forward to the fields, there is no such well-trodden road.
Song Jianshe was walking in front. Every time he stepped down, he sank several centimeters. When he lifted his foot up, there was a lot of soft mud under the soles of his shoes.
Every step I took left a deep footprint, and the smaller ones behind me also left deep footprints. My shoes, which had been clean just a moment ago, became dirty immediately. Moreover, the mud had a strong suction force, and after stepping on it, it took a lot of effort to get out. If the shoes were looser, they would be like ingots.
"Ouch, my shoe fell off!"
Yuanbao shouted, standing on one foot and lifting the other foot, which was bare and without shoes.
Song Tianen, who was behind him, reached out to support him, then bent down and pulled out his shoes that were stuck in the mud, almost falling on his butt.
Yuanbao put on his shoes, and the other children continued to walk forward. Soon, Song Tianen's shoes also fell off. In a short while, the shoes of the other children fell off several times.
It was really hard to walk on the muddy ground. The younger ones were exhausted after walking so little that they were sweating on their heads after just a short distance.
"I'm so tired. This road is so hard to walk on. The mud keeps getting on my shoes."
"Yeah, I can hardly walk anymore."
"I don't even want to put on my shoes and walk. I'm so tired..."
But now they were in the middle of the field, and even if they wanted to go back, the road was not easy to walk on. Moreover, the children were unwilling to give up just like that, after all, they had been bored at home for several days and it was not easy to get out.
Yuanbao simply took off both shoes: "No more shoes, it will be easier to walk."
He held his shoes in his hands and stepped on the muddy ground with his bare feet, leaving a clear footprint. However, although his feet were dirty, it was indeed much easier to walk.
Yuan
Baolai ran back and forth a few steps and became happy: "This is much easier to walk!"
Song Jianshe saw it but didn't stop him, but he still frowned and said, "Yuanbao, walk carefully, don't run, watch your step."
Normally there weren't any sharp objects on the ground, and even when he was a kid, he'd walked barefoot like this. But even though it usually wasn't a big deal, it was still best to be careful, lest you accidentally hurt your feet.
"Okay." Yuanbao nodded in agreement after hearing what Song Jianshe said. He stopped running and looked at the road under his feet while holding his shoes.
Song Boyu took off his shoes immediately after seeing this. Song Wenjie and Song Wenzhi also felt tired from walking like this, so they simply walked barefoot. Sure enough, it was much easier to walk this way.
"It's much easier to walk."
Song Bowen wanted to take off his shoes as well, but then he thought that if he wanted to put them on again later, the inside would get dirty, so he gave up after thinking about it.
Song Tianen looked at Baoya, who was looking down at her shoes. She felt her feet would get dirty if she went barefoot, so she didn't take them off. Besides, she was small and light, so walking slowly wasn't too tiring.
Yuanbao and the others ran to the front, while Song Bowen, Song Tianen and Yunduo Baoya walked slowly behind.
After a while, they heard their voices coming back from the front: "Ah, there really are crabs!"
“I saw that too!”
"There's one here, and one over here too!"
"Haha, I got it, I got it!"
Song Jianshe was walking slowly not far behind them, and his mouth curled up when he heard their excited voices. Not far behind him were Baoya and the others, who were originally walking slowly, but now they were a little anxious when they heard them.
The four of them quickened their pace and followed.
"Wow, I saw that too! This one has it too!"
"I... I caught... I caught one too!"
"Look at this crab I caught, it's so big!"
“…”
A few small ones immediately started looking, leaving one small footprint after another in the field.
"Be careful, don't step on the crops." Song Jianshe didn't do much this time. If he saw one at his feet, he would bend down and pick up one. He mainly focused on the small ones.
Baoya has caught turtles and fished for lobsters before, so she is not afraid of catching crabs at all. She squats down and reaches out to pinch the shell. No matter how the crab waves its claws, it cannot pinch her.
She blinked and looked at the struggling crab in her hand, her eyes curved with smile.
At noon, Song Jianshe brought a few children
When I got home, the basket was filled with a lot of crabs.
Song Boyu, Yuanbao and the others started looking for a small bucket and poured all the crabs into it.
Song Jianshe saw that their feet were covered in mud, which was black and even on their legs. He raised his foot and kicked Yuanbao's little butt: "You guys go wash your feet first and change your clothes. Don't forget to wash your dirty clothes later."
Yuanbao, Song Boyu and the others had been barefoot all the way, carrying their shoes with them, so their shoes weren't dirty, but their pants were somewhat stained with mud. As for Baoya Yunduo and the others, their shoes were so covered in mud that you couldn't even tell what they looked like.
Baoya looked at the crab, then at Xiaohong and the turtle in the jar, then got up and went back to the west room to change his dirty pants and shoes.
After lunch, the kids squatted by the well with their butts sticking out, and started brushing their shoes and washing their pants.
Baoya didn't know how to brush shoes at first, but it's not difficult. She watched how Song Tianen and Song Bowen brushed their shoes, and soon she started to brush them slowly.
The mud is easy to brush off. Just dip some water and brush it a few times and it will be clean soon. Baoya looked at the shoes she had brushed clean and smiled with satisfaction.
The younger ones took their shoes to the window to dry in the sun. After they finished, they clapped their hands, feeling a great sense of accomplishment and smiling happily.
It has been windy and rainy these days, and the kids have been stuck at home. Plus, with the incident with Song Jianye's leg, although they don't know much about it, they can always sense that the atmosphere at home is a bit depressing, so they don't dare to make a fuss.
The weather was fine today, and Song Jianshe took the kids out for a run, which broke the previous dullness and brought back the joy to the family.
That day, Baoya and the others did not go to the back mountain after all, and Shen Yibei did not wait for Baoya again.
Seeing that it was getting dark, Shen Yibei put away the faint emotions in his heart, put his things away and went down the mountain.
.......
After returning from work, Feng Guizhi went to the back plot to take a look. She had initially thought that the wind might have blown down the corn seedlings, and she expected at least half of them to be damaged. But when she got there, she saw that the green corn seedlings were still standing upright, some of them had been blown crooked by the wind.
Seeing that the corn seedlings were still growing well, Feng Guizhi finally felt relieved.
It has been raining for the past few days and I have not been able to cook properly. I have been making do with just one meal a day. Today is finally sunny.
Feng Guizhi picked some dead vegetables and prepared to make a good meal in the evening.
The lobsters that Yuanbao and his friends caught last time haven’t been eaten yet, so I cleaned them up tonight and cooked them too.
Several lobsters have died in the past two days. If we don’t eat them now, they will die soon and it will be a waste.
Feng Guizhi cleaned the lobsters just like she did last time, then stir-fried them with some spices. She simmered them for a while, letting the lobsters absorb the flavor of the broth, which made it taste better.
After a large bowl of lobster soup was ready, Feng Guizhi fried a large plate of vegetables and made a few leek boxes.
Chive dumplings are made of white flour, but Feng Guizhi also put a few handfuls of black flour in it. However, there is more white flour, so the color is not black.
Mix the leek and egg filling, apply a little oil on the rolled out white flour, pour the filling on it, and spread it evenly. Then carefully pick up one side and fold it in half, and then seal the edge to prevent the filling from running out.
Use a knife to cut a few slices vertically, pinch the two sides and place it on the grate with the steaming cloth, and let it steam slowly.
Actually, steamed chive dumplings are delicious, but pan-frying them is even more fragrant. They're delicious, but they're also quite oily, so Feng Guizhi wouldn't make them easily. She might wait until she has a happy occasion, and then she can let all the kids try them.
The children were happiest when eating. They looked at the red lobsters in the soup bowl and couldn't help swallowing their saliva.
"Stop looking and eat."
This time, Song Jianshe came to teach the little ones and demonstrated to them how to eat lobster.
"First, break off the head. You can't eat the head. Then break off the shell and eat the meat inside..."
After Song Jianshe peeled the shell, he held a complete and beautiful lobster tail in his hand. Yuanbao licked his lips, opened his mouth to accept his father's feeding, and then watched Song Jianshe put the lobster meat into his mouth.
He couldn't help but praise it: "It's delicious! The lobster meat inside is well-seasoned, and the taste is ten times better!"
"Hmph!" Yuanbao pouted and snorted at his father.
The other children couldn't help but swallow their saliva when they saw it, and they quickly pinched a lobster in their hands. However, the soup outside the lobster smelled very fragrant, and they couldn't help but take a sip. The rich soup went into the lobster.
The taste in the mouth is really delicious.
The little ones couldn't help but savor the food for a moment before they began to peel off the shrimp heads. They felt a little bad about throwing them away, but they also knew they couldn't eat them, so they started peeling the tails.
Baoya is still young and the lobster shell is too hard for her to peel, so Yang Yulan helps her peel it and eat it. After peeling the whole lobster tail meat, Baoya eats it in one bite. The tender and delicious taste makes her eyes light up.
Yang Yulan peeled them one by one, and Baoya took another bite of the chive box. There was a lot of stuffing inside, and it had a very fragrant egg flavor. It was fragrant and delicious.
After Baoya tasted it herself, she picked up a piece of shrimp tail meat with chopsticks and carefully put it to Yang Yulan's mouth. Yang Yulan felt very happy and opened her mouth to eat it.
It is said that daughters are caring and thoughtful. Her daughter is even more caring. She always thinks of her when she has something delicious.
Yang Yulan had a gentle smile on her face and fed Baoya a piece. Baoya ate it in small bites and found it particularly delicious. Her eyes curved as she ate.
After so many days, the Song family had another delicious and comfortable dinner.
......
Two days later, the sun came out and the road was dry. The little ones started going up the mountain again to continue looking for cicada shells.
Yuanbao said his father was about to leave, so they had to hurry and find more. Carrying the small baskets, the children went all the way to the back mountain.
However, when they were looking for it, a person slowly walked over -
