It may not sound nice to say that we eat dry rice, but it tastes good and fills our stomach, so who doesn’t want to eat it?
After being married into the Lin family for so many years, I only ate dry rice during the Chinese New Year. The rest of the time, only on my birthday, Mrs. Lin would specially make a bowl of thicker porridge, and the rest of the time it was basically porridge.
Who in the nearby villages hasn’t longed to have a life of eating dry rice?
So it’s normal for her daughter to have this idea, isn’t it?
Their family's income has been pretty good recently. As a mother, she always wants her children to live a better life. Since her daughter wants to eat, it doesn't hurt to prepare some more.
"When the next batch of medicinal herbs is delivered to the county town, ask your father to buy some grain to store."
Lin Shiyu made a “yeah” gesture in her heart!
Children's bodies are sometimes really inconvenient, and they need adults' approval before they can do anything. Otherwise, adults will either refuse or ignore them.
Although it's not nice for a child to wear it, she's thankful her parents are open-minded and respect their child's wishes. Plus, she usually behaves more maturely than other children, so her family is quite willing to listen to her suggestions.
In this respect alone, her situation here wasn't too bad.
After a satisfying dinner, Lin Shiyu felt that her life was perfect. If she could eat dishes of this level every day, it would seem that it wouldn't be a problem if she didn't go back to the modern era.
Early the next morning, before daybreak and the roosters had crowed, an ox cart was already parked in front of the third room's yard.
It was her uncle Lin Anji who came to help transport the herbs to the county town to sell. Lin Anru was waiting for him at the county clinic. After buying the herbs, the two brothers returned to Yamada Village.
This was something the two brothers had agreed on last month.
Mrs. Liu and her children packed up the herbs last night, and Lin Anji came over to load them into the car and set off.
"Go back to sleep, Mom can do it herself."
Liu urged her two children to go back to sleep. The two children could not help much. In fact, even she herself could not help much. Lin Anji handled it alone.
The fully loaded car set off, and Liu went back to take a nap. When she woke up again, Lin Anru had already arrived home.
"Are you up? Wash up and come over for breakfast. Both kids have already eaten."
As Lin Anru spoke, she poured another bowl of porridge from the pot and left it to dry.
Liu turned around and went to wash up while yawning. When she came back and picked up the bowl, her mind was still not clear.
I haven't gotten up early in a long time, and when I suddenly got up early, I felt like I had lost my soul.
The couple drank porridge while talking about their recent situations. Since their two children were not in the lobby, there was no need to hide many topics.
"I don't know who made the mistake in helping me plow my land, and I still haven't found them. Even if I don't have to help them plow it back, I should at least thank them!"
Liu was really upset about this matter. It was her own fault that her precious daughter severed the mother-daughter relationship with her for an hour because of this incident!
On the way back, Lin Anji had already told him about this: "It was the villagers and my elder brother who did the farming. Prepare some eggs for me later and I'll take them to thank them."
In fact, even if these people didn't help, there would be others to do it. Before going to the private school, he had asked the village chief for help. Maybe because the village chief had not finished his own work, he asked these people to clean up their land first.
"So it was them! I thought it was haunted!" Thinking of this, Liu felt a little embarrassed. The scene with Yu'er at that time must have been very embarrassing!
"It's my fault. I called for help before going to the county town and forgot to tell you."
No matter what, this is what the head of the family should do. Now that he has made his wife worry for so long, he is the only one who is wrong.
Liu shook her head and talked about the second thing: "I don't know why Yu'er has been running to the riverside every day to stare blankly. It's the same place where she fell before."
Because she was worried about her daughter, Liu even watched her daughter standing quietly by the river in a daze from afar.
Lin Anru frowned: "Did you ask her why?"
Liu shook her head: "No, but she said there was no danger, so I let her go."
This was also what her husband had advised her before, saying that she took her children too seriously and that it would be better to let the children have their own space when appropriate.
"I'll ask her when she comes back, but she said there's no danger and it's not a big problem."
Compared to Liu, Lin Anru trusts her daughter more.
"Okay." Liu continued, "There's one more thing. Your precious daughter wants to store more food. The food we have at home isn't enough for her. I want you to buy some more to keep at home."
"What do you mean by 'your precious daughter'? She's obviously our precious daughter." Lin Anru retorted, "If she wants to eat, we buy it. Isn't the purpose of making money to fill our stomachs?"
Not only buy, but buy more.
Since he went to the private school and came into contact with students from better-off families, he found that the better-off the family, the more preparations they made for future events, and he had to learn from them in this regard.
I can't compare with those people, but at least I'm doing the best within my ability.
"Just spoil her one or two of you!"
"Besides the two of us, who else spoils her? That kid Lin Boyu?" Lin Anru asked with a smile, "It's inevitable for a brother to spoil his sister."
"Who else could it be? Your brother-in-law." Liu pointed to the basket outside the yard and said, "See? That's your brother-in-law. He has chickens, ducks, fish, and everything else. Last time when Ayi and the others went back, your daughter said she wanted to eat meat, so he sent all these things over yesterday."
