Chapter 68 Don’t Fall into the River Again (2/2)



"It will be Lihua's job to feed these two from now on. Mom, we bought eight chickens. Dad will build a chicken coop after they have rested."

"Well, now that we have chickens, we'll give all the eggs they lay to you and Lihua. We won't sell them."

"Lihua and I can't eat eight eggs a day, so we bought chickens that can lay eggs immediately. Mother, let's go into the main room. I've bought some ingredients for you. See if you like them."

Song scolded, "Didn't I tell you to buy it for yourself?" She felt so sweet in her heart because her daughter bought her new clothes!

"I have one too. Lihua and I have two sets, and you and dad have one. For the festival, our whole family will wear new clothes!"

"Ai!"

"Mom, look, they are all made of cotton cloth and pear blossom patterns. You can embroider a few light-colored flowers on the cuffs and collar. Don't make them too fancy, or they won't look good. Mine doesn't need it, just do it directly. You can take care of yours and dad's for yourselves." As he said that, he took out a wooden hairpin and a few hairbands from his bosom, "Mom, this hairpin is for you, and you can throw away the one on your head, it's worn out. These two hairbands are pear blossom patterns, and these two are mine."

The beauty-loving little girl smiled with her tiny teeth showing, and said, "Sister, you are so beautiful." She will tell Chunmiao tomorrow that she will have two new sets of clothes soon, and they will be very beautiful! They look better than all their new clothes before!

"Tanghulu, eat it. Mom, keep these snacks and candies. Give them to Lihua when she's hungry. Don't eat too much. And make sure she wash her teeth after eating the candies."

"I get it. You're the only one who's particular." Every day, they were asked to clean their teeth with willow twigs. No matter what, there was no cure for rotten teeth. It doesn’t matter if you have rotten teeth. You can still eat.

"Are you hungry? There's still hot rice in the pot."

"We were hungry, so my dad and I ate two buns. We'll stew big turtle bones in the evening."

"You take a rest. Mom will come to cook dinner tonight. Your uncle Shunzi also sent a fish that he caught from the river. Will we eat it tomorrow?"

"Well, let's have braised pig's trotters tonight. Dad bought a really big one. I'll cook it tonight. Braised pig's trotters, it's really delicious."

After waking up, Zhao Xiaoyu saw his mother loosening the soil in the yard and asked, "Where's Dad?"

"There's a pigsty behind the house. When you wake up, take Lihua out for a walk. This girl can't run around in such a big yard. She keeps pestering me to go to your uncle Liu's house."

"She wants to show off her new clothes to Harumiao, right?"

"Yes, she packed a bag with candies and claws, and two snacks, saying she would bring them to Chunmiao."

Zhao Xiaoyu was also puzzled. How could the two of them get along so well with such a big age gap? She and Chunmiao are about the same age, but they don't have much in common.

"Lihua, come on, I'll take you to find Chunmiao."

The little fellow hurried into the house and came out with his two pockets bulging. "Big sister, can I share some with Sister Chunmiao? I can eat less."

"Sure, Lihua knows how to share, that's good."

"I didn't touch my elder sister and mother's share."

Emma, ​​she just couldn't stand such a cute girl, Zhao Xiaoyu stretched out her evil hand and ravaged her little face. It's very smooth and tender, the only flaw is that there's not enough meat.

"Sister, do you want to play with us?" When they arrived at Liu's house, the adults had all gone to work in the fields, leaving only Chunmiao and Liu Fuhai at home. Looking at those little kids, she, an old aunt, really couldn't play with them.

"You guys go have fun, I'll go for a walk by the river and pick you up later."

"Big sister, you have to be careful. The riverside is very dangerous. Don't fall into the river again."

Zhao Xiaoyu was sweating profusely. The original owner had jumped into the river, and he really didn't slip into the river accidentally.

Zhao Xiaoyu was taking a walk by the river. It was almost time for the autumn harvest and the weather was hot. Everyone was busy working in the fields at this moment, so she was the only one by the river.

Zhao Xiaoyu walked slowly along the river bank. The soil under her feet was soft, a little damp and hot, and carried some moisture. There are a lot of mints growing by the river. Later, I will bring a hoe and dig a few to plant in the yard. The leaves can be used to make tea to relieve heat and also to repel mosquitoes.

He stood by the river, kicking the clod of earth in front of him, feeling bored. Their current residence was a bit far from Uncle Shunzi's house, and they were too lazy to walk home.

When you get tired of standing, find a rock to sit on and continue kicking...

What is this?
