Because she was busy painting the stove last night and worked until late at night, when Li Yan got up it was already the end of the morning and her father had already left.
Li Yan thought that her father still had to find a bricklayer first, so she was not in a hurry to hand the draft to him!
After finishing her breakfast, Li Yan went to her mother's room to check on her younger siblings. The two children were still young, and most of their time was spent sleeping besides eating.
"You've come at the right time. The weather is nice today. Please help me take one out to bask in the sun." After saying that, she handed the son in her arms to Li Yan.
Li Yan held her brother's small body in an awkward position, and for a moment she didn't dare to move, for fear that she would wake her brother up again if she moved too much.
It was rare for Mrs. Lin to see her daughter looking so awkward, so she smiled and said, "Relax a little, just hold you like I do!" After that, Mrs. Lin gently picked up her little daughter and demonstrated to Li Yan.
Lin picked up her daughter and went out of the house first. Now that the weather was warm, it would be better to take the child out to bask in the sun.
The mother and daughter sat down under the eaves, each holding a small dumpling that smelled of milk.
At this time, Lin Feng came in from outside and saw two people sitting under the eaves holding a child. They walked up to them and looked at the baby in the cradle.
Lin looked at her brother's curious expression and asked, "Do you want a hug?"
Lin Feng was so scared that he kept waving his hands: "No, no!" There was no way he could hold such a soft and small child.
Lin looked at her brother who was retreating hurriedly and said with a smile, "Why don't you practice on your little nephew first? Who knows, you might become a father next year!"
Lin Feng's face turned red after hearing his sister's teasing words, and he turned away uncomfortably.
At this time, Li Yan stood up and said to Li Xiaomei, "Aunt, please help me hold the baby while I take my uncle down the mountain!"
After handing her younger brother over to her aunt, Li Yan then took Lin Feng to the backyard to harness the mule cart.
Lin Feng's hands kept moving, and he asked curiously, "What are you doing?"
Li Yan just said: "Uncle will know later!"
The two of them pulled the mule cart down the mountain. When the children saw Li Yan, they immediately came up to her and asked if there was anything wrong.
At this time, all the adults at the foot of the mountain had gone up the mountain to help cultivate the slopes and were not at home.
Li Yan called Zhao Daya over and said, "Go to the mountain and call your father and grandfather!"
After receiving Li Yan's instructions, the little girl ran up the mountain.
The children of these families now live together at the foot of the mountain. They have been getting along well with each other for more than half a year. When the adults go out to work, the children are sensible and help share some housework!
Seeing that the children who used to be thin and short have become much stronger now, although she cannot provide a rich life, at least here she can make sure that these children no longer have to wander around and live in hunger. When the business takes off in the future, Li Yan wants to bring these families along to generate some income!
Soon, the Zhao family father and son hurried down the mountain and stood in front of Li Yan, panting and asking, "Miss, you are looking for us, but do you have any instructions?"
Li Yan nodded and said to the two of them, "It's not a pressing matter. I just want you to tie up the fat pig at home and load it onto the mule cart. I have a use for it!"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Zhao immediately told his son to go home and get his stuff, and then led Li Yan to the pigsty.
Lin Feng didn't think about the purpose of his niece asking someone to catch the pig. He just thought she was asking him for help, so he followed behind the two of them without asking any questions.
After a heart-wrenching howl, the fat pig was tied tightly and placed on the mule cart.
After everything was packed, Li Yan said to Lin Feng, "Uncle, this pig was given by my father to take back with you for the wedding banquet!"
Without giving her uncle a chance to refuse, Li Yan said to Mr. Zhao who was standing beside her, "Uncle Zhao, please accompany my uncle to his house and deliver this pig!"
Mr. Zhao quickly responded!
Li Yan's move made Lin Feng unable to refuse, and he could only silently remember his sister's kindness to him.
Li Yan watched the two figures walk away before turning around and returning home.
When Lin Feng was driving his mule cart back home, he happened to meet Mrs. Guo in front of the door carrying two geese she had just bought.
When Mrs. Guo saw her brother-in-law, holding the geese she had just bought, she said happily, "I specially asked Aunt Wang to help me buy these two geese. Remember to bring them to the Zhou family when I propose!"
As if she could see her brother-in-law's embarrassment, Guo changed the subject and asked, "Why are you back now? Are you looking for your elder brother?"
Lin Feng hurriedly stopped his sister-in-law, moved aside, pointed at the pigs on the mule cart behind him and explained to his sister-in-law.
When Mrs. Guo saw the pig tied up on the mule cart, she immediately asked two people to take it to the pigsty. There was still some time before her brother-in-law's wedding, and the pig couldn't afford to have any accidents!
The two of them worked hard to move the tied pig into the pigsty. When Lin An came back from the private school, he heard a heart-wrenching howl.
I walked home in a few steps and found that it was my younger brother who came back!
When the little pigs in the pigsty heard such a shrill scream, they were so scared that they ran away and hid in the corner, staring at the scene in front of them timidly with their big dark eyes.
After the two men placed the fat pig, Guo brought them some tea and asked them to drink some and take a rest.
It just so happened that Raymond Lam also wanted to talk to his brother about his idea of moving back home, so the two brothers sat down under the eaves and started chatting about family matters!
As the market outside the city was gradually completed, matters concerning opening a shop were proceeding in an orderly manner. Li Erlang took his daughter's sketch and began to look for craftsmen to make a stove according to his daughter's description.
Li Yan led people to do some shopping in the city, and delivered all the purchased tables, chairs, benches, pots, pans, and utensils to two shops outside the city.
She also hired a blacksmith to build six grills to the size of her own stove for barbecues! As for the shelves for the soy sauce shop, Li Yan had originally thought that she would hire a carpenter to help build them after the market was finished.
Who would have thought that skilled carpenters became even busier, and shops of all sizes were busy preparing for business. In the end, Li Yan took advantage of her relationship with Qin Yue and got a few shelves for soy sauce for free.
On this day, Li Yan got up early, called Mr. Li and the father and son of the Zhao family, and prepared to go to Yaokou Village to bring back the 500 small clay pots that were customized last time!
The four of them left home early and didn't arrive at Yaokou Village until noon.
Shuanzi, who was playing in front of the door, spotted Li Yan with his sharp eyes and immediately shouted into the yard, then trotted forward to greet Li Yan.
When Mr. Chen heard his grandson's words, he quickly put down the work in his hands and limped to the door to check. When he saw that it was really Li Yan, he smiled so much that his face was full of wrinkles.
Li Yan looked at Old Man Chen, who looked more energetic than usual, and asked with a smile, "I wonder if Grandpa Chen has finished making the small clay pot I ordered?"
"It's done, it's done, just waiting for the girl to come and pick it up!"
