Chapter 68: A Close and Far Distance

In the dusk, the long river is covered with a layer of golden color, and the river is filled with soft golden waves. The wind blows, causing layers of waves. Medical career

Qiao Mingjin was walking on the field ridge and saw several children lying on their backs, squatting or lying on their stomachs in the distance, hiding behind a thick clump of water plants, all staring at the shallow river bed in front of them.

Qiao Mingjin couldn't help but have a smile on her face.

What a bunch of silly kids, so innocent and cute.

That is, at this age, you can enjoy your childhood so carefree. In a few years, I am afraid it will be completely different.

"Wan'er, Mingqi..." Qiao Mingjin called from a distance.

The two children turned around quickly when they heard the sound. The children on the side also turned around and looked at Qiao Mingjin, who was walking towards them.

Wan'er called Qiao Mingjin and rushed toward her.

"Mom, there are no big birds today. Wan'er has been waiting all day without saying a word. The bird just didn't come."

After the little person finished speaking, his pinky little mouth pouted in grievance.

Qiao Mingjin burst into laughter after seeing it.

Xiao Wan'er realized that her mother was laughing at her, so she quickly wrapped her hands around Qiao Mingjin's neck, then laid her head on Qiao Mingjin's shoulder, her whole body pressed against Qiao Mingjin's body, and stopped talking.

Qiao Mingjin hugged her daughter's soft body, feeling somewhat satisfied.

He smiled and said to his daughter: "The bird will see Wan'er hiding below when it is in the sky, so it will not fly down. And where can it be seen every day?"

After saying that, she gave Ming Qi a funny look, and Ming Qi lowered her head in embarrassment and stood beside her.

Qiao Mingjin looked at the children in front again and called out: "Changhe, Liuzhi, go home quickly, it's getting dark. Everyone else should go back and come back to play tomorrow. It's time for your parents to find you."

After hearing this, several children straightened up and ran past Qiao Mingjin. Some children even greeted Qiao Mingjin in a sensible manner.

Changhe and Liuzhi greeted Qiao Mingjin and followed Qiao Mingjin home.

The two families have a close relationship in the village, and the children of both families are very close friends. Changhe and Liuzhi often come to the house these days to play with Wan'er and Mingqi.

Qiao Mingjin took Changhe and Liuzhi back to her home, saying that she bought them delicious food.

The two children's eyes lit up after hearing this, and they wanted to refuse sensibly, but they opened their mouths and then closed them again.

Both children are very sensible. Although the conditions at Sister Xiu's home are much better than hers, how can the villagers be willing to buy snacks and other things for their children? They can't even eat enough.

The two children followed Qiao Mingjin happily. Xiao Wan'er also struggled to get off the ground and walked with them. Along the way, they were chattering about what they had done that day and how many friends they had made...

There is a picture of returning home at dusk on the ridge of the field.

When Qiao Mingjin arrived home with her children, Mingheng and Mingjue were also pulling the last load of firewood into the house.

In the yard, He Xiaochun was also helping to move the firewood that had been unloaded before into the woodshed. The child was very capable. He had only been here for a few days and he was helping with everything. Qiao Mingjin was very considerate.

After Qiao Mingjin distributed the cakes and snacks to the two children, he also gave them two taels of silver.

The two children had never seen silver and had no idea about it. They heard that they were asked to take it back to their parents, so they happily left with the cakes and snacks.

As I walked along, I looked at the two oil paper bags, and I saw that the two taels of silver were not as attractive as the cakes and candies.

Qiao Mingjin watched Mingjue and others move firewood. After she packed it up, she was ready to cook. At this time, Yue Zhongyao came to the door.

Without saying a word, Er Er grabbed the pole and bucket from Ming Jue's hand, put them on his shoulders and walked out the door.

Mingjue didn't stop him. Yue Zhongyao was out the door in the blink of an eye.

Xiao Wan'er looked at Qiao Mingjin, blinked her big eyes, and quickly ran away, chasing Yue Zhongyao out.

Yue Zhongyao was feeling regretful in his heart. The things he bought for his wife and daughter were dug out by his family, but there was nothing left for his daughter.

He can't yell at his mother. These days, filial piety is paramount. Let him reason with Donggen. I'm afraid it won't make sense. No one can calm the child when he cries. He can't do it either.

If you argue with a child, you can only blame him for not taking care of himself. He didn't expect the situation at home.

Today, his mother kept asking him to stay at home with the Liu family and her daughter. He felt that there was nothing to say, so he simply slept in the house for most of the day.

Now Hecun was far away from the city, so his mother left him behind and said that she would let the mother and daughter live in his room and let him stay with his cousin and uncle for one night.

Zhong Yao felt that it was inappropriate. If he agreed to this, he was afraid that his wife would never come back.

That was their marriage bed, how could it be used by others to sleep on?

So he went out to find his fourth aunt, Lu, and asked her to go and talk to his mother at home. He knew that his fourth aunt, mother-in-law, and daughter-in-law had a good relationship with his wife, so they would definitely help reject the Liu family and his daughter.

Sure enough, the fourth aunt, Lu, took her mother and daughter to live in her house on the grounds that she was not married and it was not convenient to live in the husband's house.

Yue Zhongyao breathed a long sigh of relief and took the opportunity to run out. However, when he arrived at his wife and daughter's place, he had bought some things for his wife and daughter, but now they were all gone. When he arrived at his wife and daughter's place, he felt that he could not even lift his head.

.

Yue Zhongyao was walking on his way to the well carrying a pole with two wooden barrels hanging on both ends. He heard a sound of trotting behind him.

He has experienced on the battlefield, and his whole person has become cautious, and he can feel the slightest sound.

Yue Zhongyao turned around, and the two wooden barrels swayed from side to side following his movements.

Yue Zhongyao soon saw his daughter's small body running towards him.

Yue Zhongyao felt his eyes were hot and tears almost fell out.

He quickly put the barrel on the ground, took two steps forward, and opened his arms toward his daughter. The next moment, her limp body fell into his arms. Yue Zhongyao picked up his daughter and held her tightly in his arms.

, my heart was extremely sour, almost ready to burst into tears.

Holding her daughter in one hand, she kept stroking her little soft body with the other.

Now the mother and daughter are very close, but he feels that they are so far away. He might as well have died on the battlefield. Maybe the mother and daughter still miss him. After saving his life, he is actually with him.

My wife and daughter have come to this point...

Xiao Wan'er put her hands around Yue Zhongyao's neck and lay quietly without speaking.

Yue Zhongyao felt extremely satisfied.

Although his daughter still rarely calls him daddy, she has become closer to him day by day. This is her own flesh and blood, and she is indeed still close to him.

As long as he thinks that if his wife divorces him, his daughter will marry another wife and call another man her father, his heart will twist.

Yue Zhongyao got close to his daughter and went to fetch water together, while Qiao Mingjin on the other side was cooking at home.

Now that He Xiaochun has been added to the family, she can't cook too badly. The meal in the evening must be dry rice, and although there is no meat, she can still scramble a few eggs.

Although she does not raise chickens at home, she keeps some of the eggs consigned by the villagers and fry them from time to time for her children.

Seeing the increasingly rosy faces of several children, she felt that no matter how hard and tired it was, it was all worth it. Isn't it that no matter how much money you make, it is to improve your life and make your life better in the future?

Qiao Mingjin was cooking in the kitchen when Sister Xiu came to the door with her two children.

He went directly into the kitchen: "Jin Niang, Sister Xiu is getting angry. When did you become so polite to me?"

Qiao Mingjin hurriedly handed the spatula to Mingqi, motioning for her to continue, and then started talking to Sister Xiu.

Sister Xiu directly put two taels of silver into her hand and said to her: "You caught that bird. How much it sells for is your family's business. It has nothing to do with my two children. What are you doing?"

The money I gave you is for pastries and candies, so you are slapping me in the face."

After hearing this, Qiao Mingjin pushed the two taels of silver back and said, "Sister Xiu, you have helped my family so much these days. You even lent me the cows when you didn't have any use for them. I have always remembered that. Now there is nothing at home.

I have no choice but to pay the debt first. Several children saw the bird together, so each of them will naturally get a share of the money from the sale."

After hearing this, Sister Xiu glared at Qiao Mingjin, stuffed the money directly into her arms, and said: "Don't tell me this, who of our two families is following who? Every time I go back to my parents' home, my parents always tell me to let me

It would be nice of you to take more care of your natal sister, and be more polite to me. If you give the cakes and candies to the children, just give them to the children. The two children are also greedy, how can I collect your money!"

Then he said: "If you have spare money, buy the house where you live now and the land around the house. Although the patriarch said that he will sell this house to you, he is not in a hurry to get the money, but the nights are long and the dreams are many.

, it is better to hold the land deed in hand and feel more at ease. Nowadays, there are many people in the village who want to get married or separate their families. If someone takes a fancy to this place and gives money first, the clan leader may not be able to handle it. If there are any leftovers,

, you can ask the clan leader if there is any extra land in the village, and if you buy one or two acres of land, it is not practical for our farmers to buy food every day."

Qiao Mingjin nodded after hearing this.

Previously, she was worried about what the villagers would say if she gave the money to the clan leader. How long did it take for her to have the money to buy a house?

Although it is only two taels, most people would save these two taels for a long time.

Qiao Mingjin thought about waiting for a while before talking.

Now that I hear Sister Xiu say this, I feel that she is right. There are many dreams in this night, so it is better to get the house deed first to feel more at ease.

There is not only the clan leader in the clan, but also several clan elders. If someone who has a good relationship with the clan leader's family speaks out, I am afraid that my mother and daughter will have no place to live. To build a house, money is secondary.

The main thing is that I have to worry about these things and it makes me feel annoyed just thinking about it.

After hearing this, Qiao Mingjin nodded to Sister Xiu and said that she would buy the house from the clan leader as soon as possible.
