Su Sanlang took the leaf bag in his hand and said, "Our third sister is very capable. She helped feed the chickens and caught a lot of bugs for me to use as bait and put them in traps."
Ms. Zhao smiled and said, "Then you have to make one more trip."
Su Sanlang smiled and said, "It's just a matter of walking one more circle. It doesn't take much effort."
Su Sanmei caught so many, he would be sorry for Su Sanmei's efforts if he didn't go there. There was no bait in the traps he made, and he thought he was just following God's will, but Su Sanmei reminded him that birds all love to eat these little bugs, so there are
The bait is more likely to catch.
Su Sanlang looked at Zhao's side. Su Xiaolu woke up at some point and was listening quietly and obediently.
He smiled and talked to Su Xiaolu: "Fourth sister, look at daddy."
Su Xiaolu looked at Su Sanlang, but did not look at his face. Instead, she looked at the leaf bag in Su Sanlang's hand. She smelled the smell of her urine...
It was a bit embarrassing. These bugs must have eaten the dirty water used by her third sister to wash diapers.
Su Xiaolu has a strong sense of smell, and she will have memories after smelling it. Baby urine does not have much smell and can be ignored. To her surprise, she smelled the familiar aura in the space. Although it was very weak, it still did not escape her.
nose.
Su Sanlang saw that Su Xiaolu seemed to be interested in the leaf bag in his hand, and said with a smile: "Fourth sister wants to catch bugs, but you can't do it now. When you grow up, dad will ask your third sister to take you to catch them. Fourth sister
Be good, dad has gone out to work."
After talking about the conversation, it was time for Su Sanlang to go out.
Mrs. Zhao wanted him to rest for a while. Su Sanlang smiled and said as he walked out: "I am going out and taking a walk along the way to rest. My dear, you have a good rest. If you are hungry or thirsty, call me Third Sister."
Zhao had no choice but to look at Su Xiaolu gently and said, "Fourth sister, you must be filial to your father from now on. Your father is the best man in the world."
Su Xiaolu looked at Zhao's obviously improved complexion and smiled at her: "Wow, wow, eh, eh-"
It's necessary. A man like her biological father is a rare thing. He protected her when she was young, and she took care of him until he grew old.
Mrs. Zhao's eyes were gentle. She was obviously just a baby and couldn't understand anything. But every time she talked to her little girl, she couldn't help but be serious. Every time she looked at her black eyes, which were as moist as black grapes, she felt...
She understood.
Every time I see the little girl open her mouth into an O shape or make a sound like "oooooooh", I feel like it's her response.
Ms. Zhao was leaning on the bed, holding Su Xiaolu in one hand and gently patting her to sleep. Mrs. Zhao slightly curled her lips. The room was bright and quiet. There was no cursing or making noise. It was very peaceful and comfortable.
She could also hear the sound of three other children cleaning the well not far outside the house.
This was so good, Ms. Zhao felt relieved at this moment.
Su Xiaolu fell asleep obediently, and her consciousness went to the space to absorb spiritual energy.
…
Su Sanlang sprinkled some insects into each condom along the place where the condoms were placed, and then went to mow the grass.
I cut it all afternoon and then picked it all back several times.
I made dinner and started knitting after eating.
Chen Hu came to help again. The two of them looked at each other and smiled, without saying much, and knitted quietly. When it was almost midnight in the evening, Su Sanlang stopped what he was doing and patted Chen Hu on the shoulder.
He said: "Thank you, Huzi, these are enough, I don't need to come tomorrow."
Under the moonlight, Chen Hu had a simple smile and said, "Okay, then I'm going home. Brother, you should also rest early."
Su Sanlang nodded and watched Chen Hutiao leave. He himself packed up the grass before going to rest.
August 13th was the third day after they were separated.
Today, Su Sanlang did not go out, but started preparing to renovate the roof.
In the morning, he first cut bamboo to make a ladder, then took Zhao and Su Xiaolu to the next door, and began to renovate the roof, removing all the old and broken bamboo pieces on the roof and replacing them with new ones.
Once everything is done, lay out the braided straw and tie it tightly, repeating layer by layer.
Throw away the unusable grass and use it to start the fire.
Su Sanlang asked Su Sanmei to hand over the straw, and the father and daughter cooperated. By the time it got dark, the roof had already taken on a different look.
Su Sanlang came down from the roof after a tiring day and took Zhao and Su Xiaolu back in their arms.
Now, the roof is opaque.
Su Xiaolu secretly praised this good father in his heart! His hands-on ability is so strong.
Seeing such a home, Su Sanlang also relaxed and took his three children to make a fire and cook.
The food is still the same, but the whole family enjoys it.
After dinner, Su Sanlang had a rare moment of leisure. He pulled out a few chestnuts buried in the ashes and let the three brothers and sisters eat the rest while he cut off the medicine and gave it to Mrs. Zhao.
After Mr. Zhao drank the medicine, he took out the chestnuts and said, "My dear, try this."
The ripe chestnuts buried in the ashes of the fire are burnt and fragrant. They are fragrant and pink when eaten. They are undoubtedly delicious.
Su Xiaolu swallowed greedily as she smelled the fragrance.
Su Sanlang peeled it off and gave it to Mrs. Zhao, who felt a little embarrassed.
Su Sanlang smiled and said: "Why are you standing there in a daze? Eat."
Mrs. Zhao felt embarrassed and ate what Su Sanlang fed her. She said, "Daddy, give it to me and I will do it myself."
Su Sanlang concentrated on peeling the shells and said naturally: "What are you doing with this on your hands? I'll peel it off for you if it's ashes."
Mrs. Zhao felt deeply that it would be free to separate the family.
If Su Sanlang had looked at her twice in that house and Mrs. Wang had seen her, Mrs. Wang would have scolded her, but now, all those curses have gone away.
Mrs. Zhao later thought that the separation of the family might be her blessing.
Ms. Zhao couldn't help but look at Su Xiaolu, who was sucking her mouth and swallowing. Ms. Zhao smiled: "Fourth sister is a greedy cat. If you want to eat, I can't give it to you now."
Su Xiaolu pursed her lips: I know, I know, I'm still a baby, I understand.
Su Sanlang stripped them to Mrs. Zhao and fed them one by one. The air seemed to be sweet.
In the evening, after the children went to bed, Su Sanlang also went to bed. This night was the most peaceful night he had slept in the past few days, and he didn't have to worry about rain.
On August 14th, Su Sanlang was going to cut grass for another day and thicken the roof of his home by two layers. His diligent figure was visible to everyone in the village.
Every time Su Sanlang went far away, the people working in the fields during the autumn harvest would say a few words.
Su Sanlang occasionally heard the word "sin" faintly, but he didn't care.
In the afternoon, he spotted a piece of wasteland. On his way there, he passed by the family's land and saw Mr. Su leading Su Dalang and Su Erlang's family to work, as well as his second sister-in-law, Mrs. Zhou, who had returned from her parents' home.
Mr. Su, the leader, lowered his voice and said coldly: "Do it well for me, all of you slowly, don't look at those who are there or not."
