When Lu Yongchang returned home, An An was playing hopscotch with Yaya in the yard.
It's not accurate to say hopscotch. The main reason was that Yaya had already drawn the house and she just jumped behind her. When she saw her third uncle, she hurried up.
"Third uncle..."
Lu Yongchang picked up An An.
He had already learned from his second brother that he had to bring snacks for An An when he came back from school, so he took out two golden dates from his pocket.
"Wow……"
An An shouted happily.
Then he gave the second uncle a kiss on his face.
"The third uncle is the best, An An likes the third uncle the most."
She didn't see the envious look in Yaya's eyes, and the... loneliness in her eyes.
There is also Lu Yongsheng who is equally lonely just after entering the house.
What did An An just say?
She said she likes Uncle San the most?
She obviously just said she liked him the most two days ago...
It's too much. The third brother just relied on his own pocket money to buy snacks for An An, so he took away his position in An An's heart.
Shameless!
Because Lu Yongchang was admitted to high school, Wang Qiaoping naturally made something delicious to reward him.
Coincidentally, I caught a rabbit two days ago.
Of course, this rabbit was caught because of An An.
Now Wang Qiaoping and An An have reached a certain consensus. When Wang Qiaoping saw some inexplicable animals appearing in the house, she knew that this little guy was greedy again.
Wang Qiaoping must reward An An with a good meal.
It just so happened that the green peppers and green peppercorns in the mountains had matured some time ago. Wang Qiaoping collected two large peppers and put them in the house. Now they come in handy.
Add star anise and bay leaves and stir-fry in a wide amount of oil. Not to mention how fragrant it is.
Of course, An An’s rabbit soup is also indispensable.
An An also tried eating chili today.
Really spicy...
Just one breath made her breathe in "squeak" and "squeak".
Seeing that everyone in the family was anxious, they quickly poured her a large glass of water.
An An drank several large mouthfuls of it "gudu" and "gudu".
Lu Wenqi felt heartbroken watching this.
"How can this silly boy eat something so spicy right away? Take your time, isn't this rabbit soup? Isn't it good for you to eat this?"
Unexpectedly, An An put down the water glass, her eyes were bright, and she didn't know whether she was crying or something.
"It's delicious..." she said.
whole family:???
Wang Qiaoping:……
An An ate several pieces of rabbit meat, and finally she stopped only after the whole family strongly stopped her.
But today everyone was eating enthusiastically, but Lu Yongsheng had no appetite at all.
"I'm done eating." Lu Yongsheng put down the bowl.
This sentence immediately shocked everyone.
"What's wrong? Are you sick?" Wang Qiaoping's first reaction was this.
Lu Yongsheng shook his head: "No, I just don't have any appetite. I'll go back to the house and lie down for a while. You can eat and don't worry about me."
After he finished speaking, he went into the house, leaving the Lu family with bewildered faces.
"He must be sick!" Wang Qiaoping said with certainty.
But nowhere to be seen, Lu Yongsheng was tossing and turning on the bed.
An An said she liked Uncle San the most.
I like the third uncle the most...
So what were the days they spent hunting birds together?
Did she forget that he took her to the mountains to pick wild fruits for her to eat?
Did she also forget those sweet potatoes he baked for her?
Damn Lu Yongchang, he obviously spends the most time with An An, but just because he has a little pocket money and can buy some snacks, he takes away his place in An An's heart.
Lu Yongsheng fell asleep with hatred.

Now it’s time to catch up on farm work again. The weather in June is hot and brutal, but the work is the heaviest.
At times like this, even families with the worst conditions must provide better food for their workers, otherwise people will really die.
An An would soak a whole pot of honey water when she got up in the morning.
Hmm...the honey Aunt Ma sent last time was so sweet.
Every time she soaked it, An An would dip a little with her finger, then put it in her mouth and sip it.
That sweet taste... really makes people feel happy.
But don't eat too much. This is good food and should be kept for grandparents.
Grandparents are tired and will feel much better after drinking a bowl of this.
So An An soaked the kettle in the well, and in the afternoon, she would drag the kettle with her.
Yes, that's right, it was dragged...
After all, she is too short, shorter than the strap of a kettle.
She dragged the kettle across the fields and mountains to deliver water to her grandparents.
When the people around saw it, they all praised: "Oh, Lao Lu, your granddaughter has brought you water again. Your granddaughter is so sensible. In such a hot day, she still misses you as a grandfather."
Lu Wenqi was so excited when he heard this that he would deliberately sigh loudly when drinking water: "It tastes good!"
"The water my granddaughter gave me is sweet."
An An:……
Can it be sweetened with honey?
Wang Qiaoping frowned: "Look, my face is all red from the sun."
An An shook his head: "I'm not red. My mother specially asked me to wear a straw hat when I went out."
An An leaned her head closer to let her grandma see the hat on her head.
"Really, your mother, why do you ask you to bring water to such a young child? It's not like your grandpa and I didn't bring water."
"But An An wanted to give it to grandma. Mom praised me as a good and filial child."
When Wang Qiaoping heard this, she couldn't help laughing.
She poured the water into the bowl and drank it in two or three sips. She quickly urged: "Okay, okay, grandma is done drinking. Go back quickly."
"Remember to walk under the shade of a tree. There are mung beans at home. Ask your mother to make mung bean paste, add some rock sugar, let it cool and eat it."
"Well, I understand."
An An nodded obediently and dragged the kettle home again.
Wang Qiaoping looked at An An's back and felt relieved when she saw that she had gone far away.
Looking at Lu Wenqi who was resting next to him, he suddenly became angry and slapped him.
"You're quite beautiful. Look how hot the baby is."
Lu Wenqi:???
"It's not the water I asked An An to bring. Besides, didn't you drink it too?"
Wang Qiaoping had nothing to say.
He paused for a while and then sighed: "Lu Wenqi, Lu Wenqi, you are so lucky. You have enjoyed the blessing of a granddaughter so early."
Lu Wenqi strongly agreed with this.
"That's right. I think this granddaughter is more useful than the sons in the family."
"Of course it's more useful." Wang Qiaoping said immediately.
"Look how many years have we been raising those boys? When did they ever think of giving us saliva? When they are hungry, they go to mom, and when they are short of money, they go to dad. Who has a granddaughter who is caring?"
"It's just that raising a son is really useless, and he looks terrible."
"Aqiu..."
At this time, Lu Yongguo who was driving, Lu Yongguo who was at Lu Yong's house in the capital, Lu Yongchang who was reading at home, and Lu Yongsheng who was digging bird eggs from the tree all sneezed in unison.
What's going on? Why do you have a cold in this summer?
