After leaving the old woods, Guan Youshou had no time to say more.

He immediately removed the sack and wild boar, put the wild boar into the sack, picked up some branches, and fed a handful of weeds to cover the exposed part, and tied it with a straw rope.

Then, he hurriedly left a message, "Wife, go and call Dazhong to come to the old place and take the children at his house to wait for us to go back."

Then he ran away with his back...

Guan Ping'an looked at the sky, "Mom, where are you going, dad? It's getting dark."

"Don't worry, your father has a way."

Guan Ping'an pondered for a moment, shook his head, and stopped thinking about it. He turned around and asked her father again, speeding up and following her mother and her brother to leave.

When Ma Zhenzhong's home, he heard Ye Xiuhe's words in the yard and went to the old place, and ran back to the warehouse quickly, picked up the sack and cloth bags and ran out.

That anxious speed seems to be about to take revenge!

Guan Ping'an looked at his back thoughtfully, which was disappearing soon. Her father had a deep relationship with the other party. These two people were very familiar with these things.

Ye Xiaofeng smiled angrily and said, "This silly man!" His tone was full of disgust, but judging from his smiley expression, even the child could tell that she was satisfied with her man.

Ye Xiuhe glanced at her with contempt, "If you want to praise you, just say it clearly. My sister can still laugh at you."

Ye Xiaofeng reached out to pinch her face, but she avoided her. The two cousins ​​hugged each other and laughed, making the children look at each other and laughed.

Like most families in the village, Ma Zhenzhong's family also has three mud thatched houses, fenced yards, and a walkway paved with small stones in the front yard.

It was still light outside, and Ye Xiaofeng had already lit an oil lamp on the windowsill in the outer room, asking her children to take Guan Ping'an and his brothers to the east room to have a party.

Most people will build walls under the beams of the house. This wall also divides the house into two parts: inside and outside. The outside is a place to make fires and cook, and the inside is a bedroom. This wall is also called "horse wall". Some people open a window here, which is referred to as horse windowsills.

An oil lamp shone on the two rooms. Although the light was a little darker and could not be compared with the city, it was much better than her grandmother who liked to touch the darkness.

Ye Xiaofeng in the outer room should be trying to make two rice to entertain her cousin's family, and Ye Xiuhe is stopping them. The two of them are still keeping going back and forth.

In the east room, Guan Ping'an was pulled by Ma Zhenzhong's youngest, 3-year-old Ma Minghe pulled his sleeves and smiled at her.

"What's wrong?"

"Miss play with me."

"Okay, what do you want to play?"

There are two older brothers on the Ma Minghe. The older Ma Minghai is 9 years old this year, and the younger Ma Mingjiang is 7 years old, which is more than one year older than Guan Ping'an and his sister.

At this moment, the two little kids of the Ma family were also sitting on the kang with her brother Guan Tianyou, chatting about the embarrassing things about their friends in the village.

Ma Zhenzhong and his wife love their children very much, but they are still willing but not capable enough. They are similar to Guan Ping'an and his sister, both of whom are thinner than their actual age.

Guan Ping'an heard her mother Ye Xiuhe mention the Ma family affairs. The reason why Ma Mingjiang was four years apart from his younger brother Ma Minghe was that those four years were also the most difficult period.

It is said that people in the village eat leaves.

The brother and sister happened to be born in Laba, 1959. According to this time, it was so difficult for her mother to be pregnant with their twins.

No wonder they are different from the people in the village. They were born in a county hospital, and no wonder her father was penniless. Otherwise, with her father's shrewdness, she would not be able to raise two children.

Soon, the smell of food was floating in the outer room, and the belly of several children in the room began to rumbling. Everyone was so greedy that they were not feeling weak, and they lay down on the window frame and looked out of the yard.

Guan Ping'an was also anxious. He was not so hungry, but was hoping that her father would come back soon. The sky was getting darker and darker. He didn't know where his so-called old place was?

A large iron pot on the earthen stove was boiling muddy porridge. A large circle of yellow cakes were pasted around the pot, a grill was placed on the pot, and a large bowl of egg custard was steamed on the grill.

In another pot, Ye Xiaofeng took a brush to brush the pot, scooped the warm water with a scoop, and took a rag to clean the remaining water marks on the bottom of the pot.

Before Ye Xiuhe could stop the fire, she quickly ordered two drops of oil with chopsticks, grabbed the wild vegetables in the basket next to her and threw them into the pot.

Suddenly, there was still undrained water on the wild vegetables and the oil on the bottom of the pot.

The stove is made of firewood, which is particularly prone to choking smoke. Ye Xiuhe was burning the fire while pulling the wind box, "Why did you put so much oil?"

"What's so much? That is, the lard I boiled before the New Year is used up, otherwise it will be more fragrant. In two days, let Dazhong go to the next village to change it. Don't worry, I know it."

Ye Xiuhe glanced at her enviously.

It’s better to be the master of the family, and you can do whatever you want. If she split up, she would be able to make a lot of oil from the wild boar just now.

The fried oil residue was sprinkled with some sugar, and their children liked it the most. If they were to make dumplings and stew braised pork...

Ye Xiuhe quickly shook her head, secretly swallowed the saliva in her mouth, and glanced at the open door with worry. I wonder if the child's father had met anyone?

"Dad, dad, my dad is back."

"Mom, my father and third uncle are back..."

"Let's have dinner..."

Hearing the cheers of the children in the inner room, Ye Xiaofeng quickly shouted, "Babys, stop jumping. If the kang collapses again, I won't beat you up!"

Ye Xiuhe felt relieved when she heard the children calling for the man to come back. When she heard her cousin say this, she remembered an interesting thing and chuckled.

"What are you laughing at? The kang last time was like two stinky guys, so don't listen to those girls talking nonsense."

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" Ye Xiuhe stopped debating with her and joked, "It must have been because you two had a big fuss."

It was also at this time last year that the kang at Ma Zhenzhong's house collapsed, which caused the old men and women in the village to often joke about this.

In the past, there was no kang in the house. Occasionally, the kids of all sizes in the house were happy and fell, but who told the adults of that family to chase the children and beat them up?

As for Ma Zhenzhong and his wife, they were worried or reluctant to beat the child. In short, their kang collapsed and they didn't make any jokes when they rebuild the kang.

Ye Xiaofeng was not annoyed, and inherited the straightforward nature of the Ye family. Especially her verbal words were so good that she was often so happy that she was amused by her face.

Both of them are the daughters of Yejiabao, and they are straightforward, but Ye Xiuhe is relatively less talkative and doesn't like to talk nonsense, and they start fighting if they have any disagreements.

In addition to being slightly inferior to her, Ye Xiaofeng is much more tactful in dealing with people, including mother-in-law, daughter-in-law, sister-in-law, and neighbors.
