"In the backyard! I'm going to feed the chickens in a minute. Would you like to come with me?" Cheng Fangyuan used his chopsticks to pick up a few pieces of meat for him, motioning him to sit down and eat quickly.
"Okay, okay. I'm going to go check it out later, second sister and fourth sister. Why haven't the two trees we planted produced any fruit? If dad hadn't said they were fruit trees, I would have suspected they were just for decoration."
Song Tangzi was eating while asking questions he didn't understand, but he didn't know that as soon as he asked the question, the corners of his two sisters' mouths twitched.
Song Tanglan thought about his memory of how the two poor trees were destroyed by his younger brother, and then by his two nieces and nephews, and there was also his father, the fruit tree nemesis who clearly didn't know how to plant fruit trees but pretended to know everything.
It would be strange if this could grow fruit.
Seeing his younger brother so happy, and thinking about the five days of driving he had spent, Song Tangcheng couldn't help but criticize him. "I don't know, maybe he's not used to the climate!"
"Is that so? Then ask Dad to buy some water-tolerant seeds and bring them back to plant."
The three of them pretended not to hear what he said and continued eating.
After dinner, Song Tangcheng fed the baby and went to wash the dishes with her little sister. Cheng Fangyuan took the curious little guy to the backyard to feed the chickens and look at the fruit trees.
Song Tangzi was very lively the whole day and only started to feel sleepy after washing up.
Seeing that he was almost too sleepy to open his eyes, Cheng Fangyuan quickly brought out a new quilt and handed it to him, asking him to sleep first.
The next day, Song Tanglan got up early. She was going to help Aunt Li at her house. The baby's banquet was held at Aunt Li's house because her yard was spacious and her kitchen was bigger, which was convenient for preparing ingredients.
The couple took the child over early in the morning, and Song Tanglan could only walk slowly with her brother who had just woken up.
"I'm going to help wash the vegetables later. Do you want to go play with Xiaohu?"
"No, no, I want to help you wash the vegetables. How can you wash so many vegetables by yourself?" Song Tangzi was yawning just now, and he quickly refused when he heard her say that.
He could come to the countryside, but his father had promised to help his fourth sister with work, so how could he be lazy at this time?
Seeing how resistant he was, Song Tanglan thought that he was not familiar with Xiaohu yet and was a little shy, so he had to follow her, so she agreed.
The two went straight to the kitchen backyard, where they were going to wash vegetables today.
"Aunt Li, let us help." Song Tanglan took a wooden hairpin and tied up all her hair. Suddenly, the temperature was not as hot as before. The two big braids no longer hung on her neck, and her neck did not feel sticky as before.
As expected, a bun is suitable for hot weather. Although it is very different among a bunch of double braids, it is still different. It is better than dying of heat.
"Thank you very much for your help. You can wash the vegetables here. I'll go to the kitchen to take a look." When Aunt Li saw the two of them coming, she smiled and made room for them.
The morning meal is to entertain relatives who come early in the morning and fellow villagers who come to help. Making breakfast does not need to be complicated, as long as it fills the stomach. The lunch is the main meal.
The two siblings worked together very quickly. Each of them could wash the vegetables cleanly once. After all the vegetables were washed, they were brought into the kitchen, and the two little ones would not be needed for the rest.
At this time, Xiaohu came out from somewhere and greeted them happily when he saw them.
"Aunt Lan, Uncle Tangzi."
When Song Tangzi heard the voice, he immediately waved to him: "Xiao Hu, where have you been? I didn't see you when I came here."
"I just went to the private plot to help pick vegetables. We are not needed here, so I will take you to pick some fruit!" Xiaohu deliberately lowered his voice for fear of being heard by others.
When Song Tangzi heard this, his eyes lit up and he followed. He thought about the fruits he brought back yesterday and shared them, which he had eaten up in no time. Now he could go and see if there were any ripe ones.
Seeing the two little guys eager to try, Song Tanglan couldn't bear to say, "Breakfast will be available soon. You can save your food for dinner!"
When the two little guys heard this, they immediately stopped walking towards the backyard. With nothing to do, Xiaohu took Song Tangzi to play with his younger brothers and sisters, while Song Tanglan sat where she was.
Seeing that more and more relatives were coming, my second sister and brother-in-law were entertaining them.
The newborn baby was held by one person, and then by another. The scene was extremely lively.
She saw several girls of about her age in the team, but she didn't know any of them. She only knew Aunt Chen's youngest daughter, Cheng Qing'er.
Su Tao said that Cheng Qing'er got engaged as early as last month and will hold a wedding banquet next month.
When they heard it, they were both shocked, especially when they compared their ages and found that she was about the same age as them, yet she was already getting married.
Su Tao complained bitterly, "I'm obviously one year older than her, and she's already getting married before she even finds a date."
Her sour words made Song Tanglan laugh so hard at that time.
…
Song Tangcheng came early in the morning to deal with this group of relatives from her husband's family. Some of them were suitable for close friendship, while some of them had too deep-rooted ideas and she really didn't like what they said. If she hadn't paid attention to the occasion, she might have wanted to turn her back and leave.
If Cheng Fangyuan's grandmother hadn't been helping her and introducing her to others, she might not even know who they were. Fortunately, this family reunion ended quickly.
Song Tangcheng quickly left his son behind and sat at a table with his younger brothers and sisters. Seeing the table full of children, he happily started to eat breakfast.
