Speaking of Cao Cao, Li Wenzheng was talking to the little girl when Cao Cao arrived. Li Yong walked in with a slingshot and a sparrow in his hand.

"A Yong, come here!" Li Wen waved when he saw Li Yong walking in the door.

"Brother, you are back."

Li Yong was jumping around carrying the sparrow to pluck its feathers, when he saw Li Wen at the door of the house and ran over with a smile.

"Now this technology is very good, the sparrows are all mastered." Li Wen looked at the sparrows in Li Yong's hand and said with a smile.

"That's right, I am now a marksman, A Yong, and I can hit the slingshot with perfect accuracy." He picked up the slingshot and started gesticulating.

"Shame, shame, shame! How can I praise myself?" The little girl behind Li Wen mocked Li Yong by gesturing with her fingers.

"Humph, you damn girl. Don't eat my sparrow when it's ready." Li Yong bared his teeth at the little girl.

"I won't eat it. My brother came back today and brought braised pork and blood tofu." Li Juan put her hands on her hips and raised her head, saying disdainfully.

"Ah! Brother, you brought meat home." The little guy threw the dead bird on the window sill and ran into the kitchen to take a look.

"Don't move, or my claws will be broken." The old lady's scolding and Li Yong's laughter came from the kitchen.

"Brother, your braised pork is so delicious. I haven't eaten meat for many days. Look at me, have I lost weight recently?" Li Yong muttered as he walked out of the kitchen, eating what he had just secretly taken from the kitchen.

Braised pork, he said.

"Where have you lost weight? I can't see how fat you are! Day by day, you just eat without growing, which is a waste of food."

"I think you won't gain weight even if you drive a fat pig into your belly. Do you think raising you is a waste of food and is not as good as the pigs raised in the backyard?" Second uncle Li Dezhong said as he walked into the yard with a hoe.

As soon as he said this, the second sister, third sister and the little girl who were following behind all burst into laughter.

"Dad, how can I compete with a pig? I'm your son! If you say I'm not as good as a pig, aren't you scolding yourself?" the little guy retorted in a sultry tone.

"Let's see if I don't beat you to death." Second uncle Li Dezhong took off his cloth shoes and threw them at Li Yong.

Li Yong was already prepared and ran out of the door before his second uncle could react.

"This stinky boy causes trouble all day long and makes no one feel at ease. You brothers were not this naughty when you were young."

"A few days ago, I used a slingshot to break the glass in the teacher's office, which made me go to apologize to the teacher. It was embarrassing." Li Dezhong said angrily.

"Ha ha!"

Li Wen laughed out loud after hearing this.

"Second uncle, Ayong is still young. It's okay to have a bit of a naughty personality. No, he didn't suffer in school. It will be fine when he grows up." Li Wen took over and said.

At this time, Li Wen's parents and his second aunt Cui Yanzi also came back carrying hoes and poles.

Li Wen smiled and stepped forward to greet his parents, then put the farm tools in the utility room.

After his parents and others finished washing, Li Wen made everyone a bowl of tea.

"Awen, why are you back today?" Li Deyou looked at Li Wen and smiled.

"Yesterday I got some pig blood and sesame from a friend, as well as a big pumpkin. I made it this morning and brought it back for everyone to try." Li Wen said with a smile.

"Then we're in for a treat today! The blood tofu is delicious and a great tonic." Li Dezhong laughed at the side.

"No one saw the pork when I brought it back. There were a lot of gossips in the village," Li Deyou said, taking a puff of his cigarette.

"No one saw it. That bothered me too, so I asked someone to make a small wooden box for the back seat of the bicycle."

"When you go home, put everything in a wooden box so that no one can see it." Li Wen chuckled.

"You've done a great job. Today's society values ​​equality. Even the food you eat is about the same level. If you stand out too much, you'll make jokes. Although our family eats upright, we can't stand up to villains."

Li Deyou said while drinking tea.

"I know dad, it's because of this that I live in the county town. Only when I can't see can I be distracted." It's the same for us and the people in the village.

Watching his father and his second uncle drinking tea and listening to the radio, Li Wen stopped talking.

"Mom, you cut off part of the pumpkin I got today. Let's make pumpkin porridge tonight and pick out the seeds. Someone may come to ask for it later." Li Wen walked to the kitchen and looked at the people cooking.

Mother said.

"This pumpkin is really big. There are pumpkins like this on the hillside of my parents' home. They are very small. You can hold four or five of them." The second aunt Cui Yanzi picked up the pumpkin and scrubbed it.

"Auntie, there are a lot of pumpkin seeds here. Let's save some more later and ask my second sister to give some to Uncle Dashan. This pumpkin has a higher yield and is also delicious." Li Wen said with a smile.

"Awen, you are right. These pumpkins are so good, I will plant some for our family this year." Wang Chunmei, who was lighting the fire, said with a smile.

"Mom, I was just about to tell you. We have to plant other crops with the little we have for ourselves. There is not enough space. I plan to plant pumpkins in front of and behind the house."

"When the time comes, let's build a shelf and let all the pumpkins grow to the roof. Since there is room left, the pumpkin leaves can also protect the roof from rain." Li Wen expressed his thoughts.

"Is it possible to let the pumpkin climb on the roof?" Li Wenyi said. Not only the mother and second aunt in the kitchen, but also the father and second uncle in the yard all raised questions.

"Okay, let's give it a try. We won't lose anything. At most, we will waste some pumpkin seeds and dung." Li Wen said with a smile.

"Okay, let's try it. I still don't believe that a knotted pumpkin can collapse the roof! It will collapse just in time. I'll replace it with tiles. This house often leaks during the rainy season and I have to clean it up. It's very troublesome.

.”

"Besides, our family has a lot of money this year, and I also have an idea to replace the roof with tiles." Li Deyou said his idea with a smile.

"You have the same thoughts as a child this day, they come up as they come up." Wang Chunmei, who was in the kitchen, said with a smile after hearing this.

"Mom, I agree. If it is renovated, I will provide logistical support."

"Our yard has been built for many years, not to mention it was torn down and rebuilt. I think it is necessary to renovate the roof." Li Wen looked at the thick straw roof at the eaves and said with a smile.

"I spent a lot of money in one day. I don't know who I learned it from. Go, go, don't disturb me because I can cook." Li Wen was still talking impassionedly but Wang Chunmei kicked him out.

"Where is Lao Wu?"

Just after talking, women from four or five families in the village came to Li Wen's house and asked for pumpkin seeds. Wang Chunmei gave each of them five or six pumpkin seeds.

Seeing that half of the big pumpkins were still on the table, everyone left happily. It seemed that they had already reaped the joy of the autumn harvest in advance.

After everyone in the village left, the second sister Li Xia closed the door and the family began to have dinner.

Mother and second aunt just heated the braised pork that Li Wen brought back, so that the smell of the meat would not spread outside.

"This blood tofu mixed with wild vegetables is delicious! It's spicy and delicious." Li Deyou said with a smile as his mouth was full of oil after eating. He took a sip of bulk wine.

"Dad, try this pumpkin porridge. It's delicious and sweet." Li Wen pointed to the yellow and orange pumpkin porridge in the bowl and said.

"This pumpkin is indeed very sweet. The porridge is as delicious as sugar." Several little guys said one after another.

After dinner, Li Wen slept with the old lady and a few little guys. There was no bedding in his own room.
