1011. Long years (28) three in one

Long years (28)

Liu Yan'er of the Liu Cheng family adopted someone else's family. She took over the biological child she gave birth to and gave it to others. The girl Liu Min'er who was born prematurely in their family was still a weak and slightly disabled child. No matter what you say now, the child is healthy.

He must be healthy. But he changed hands and gave it away.

In He Xiaowan’s words: “It’s OK to be two!”

People here also think that Lonicera’s insistence on having his son is mentally ill. As a result, a family in an alley in the old city wants a wife for their son, and a young wife like Lin Yutong has to come over to help. It turns out that the people in this family are relatively small, and seeing Lin Yutong

When I got there, I wanted to help with the sewing of quilts, so the hostess said: "Tong... you go to the kitchen and help."

Lin Yutong didn't think much about it, wondering if there were not enough people in the kitchen. When he went to the kitchen, these little wives were all laughing. What were they laughing at?

Say you were rubbed out!

What does it mean?

These people all laughed, and there were some wiping tears beside them. This one said: "Why? Why? We are all only daughters. People who do such detailed work must either have sons or children.

We have the best of both worlds. We are afraid of attracting a bunch of girls to our new wife if we take advantage of someone else’s favor like this.”

I'm going!

This must be considered disgusting.

Then let me help their family with a hammer. Help, she threw aside the carrot that was just handed over, "Don't you dare touch other people's things and let the groom eat it?"

After saying that, he dusted off the non-existent dust on his body, turned around and walked out.

The hostess was about to come over to arrange to see how many stalls the dishes were divided into, but after hearing the general idea, Lin Yutong walked out unexpectedly, and then came face to face. Lin Yutong walked out with a smile, making the hostess blush.

Those who are smart can just drop what they are doing and stop doing it!

Whenever I help with weddings and funerals like this, the most tiring thing is actually the kitchen. I work from morning to night, and even have to work the night shift to steam steamed buns. I am the first person to enter the victim's house and the last to leave the victim's house. After eating, the kitchen must be cleaned up.

You said that we came to your house to help, just because we didn't have a son, we were rejected for doing the hardest work.

If you don't like it, don't use it.

I walked away in a hurry and everything was clean.

The people over there were dumbfounded. Without people in the kitchen, the matter would have to stop.

Lin Yutong is still angry after leaving. The fourth master is not the guide today, he hasn't left yet. A group of people are standing outside.

Lin Yutong was furious and called out to the fourth master: "What are you doing? You don't have a son to be a guide, so you are not afraid of attracting a whole house of girls."

The fourth master was confused, but still very obediently followed Lin Yutong out of the alley without saying a word.

When Lin Yutong came out, he looked back and saw the fourth master and couldn't help but laugh again.

Fourth Master nodded to her: "It's more honorable."

Look! How well you can train a man.

Lin Yutong took his arm and went home directly: "It saves trouble. I won't go to any happy events in the future." What happened today will definitely be known to everyone. Even if someone doesn't help someone in the future, they will.

I don't know what to say. I know I'm not angry at them.

Of course, everyone's wedding was done as planned. Later, I heard people say that Li Xian'er was so proactive that when no one was helping in the kitchen, she complained that Lin Yutong was ignorant, and then she took care of it single-handedly and did everything right. Everyone praised her.

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Jin family is a capable person. There is no one else who can try to improve her reputation by stepping on others.

He also muttered to others: "Let's not argue with others. We are already weak without a son. If we do this again, we will feel even more uncomfortable. We can understand."

Who understands you!

Because of this incident, the people in the village seem to have become more sensitive to having boys and girls. Those who are married are thinking about whether it was the daughter of the groom's family at the beginning. If they are pregnant, they have been looking for it again in the past two years.

The great immortal who comes here can do some calculations or ask for talismans.

He Xiaowan was a little suspicious. She touched her belly and asked her mother-in-law: "Mom, do you think this is a boy or a girl?"

Aunt Jin rolled her eyes: "Don't follow those crazy people. If you are a boy, you are a boy, if you are a girl, you are a girl. What's the point of being poor? What can you do if you want a son? Who has the throne for his son to inherit or something?"

Is this a very serious question?

Yes! I am so poor, what can I do if I want a son? Is there an heirloom or a throne?

"We all want sons, not girls." Aunt Jin sneered, "When they grow up, they will all be singles."

That’s right!

He Xiaowan quietly calculated an account in her heart. It all needs boys, not girls. With fewer girls in the future, it will be difficult for boys to find wives. If it is not easy, will the bride price have to be doubled, doubled, and doubled again?

Already.

She was either coveting the betrothal gift, or just thinking about the difficulties these sons would face in finding a wife, she couldn't help but smile unkindly. Touching her belly, she sincerely hoped that the child in her belly would be a girl.

But the result was the opposite.

After a day and two nights of discomfort, back pain, and buttocks swelling, He Xiaowan gave birth to a six-pound black boy.

He is completely black all over. His face is not ugly, with big eyes, a tall nose and a small mouth. But people say that a white face can cover up a thousand ugliness, but this dark one only takes away from the good facial features that I finally had.

He Xiaowan is also a very strange person. He says he won't go to the hospital or the clinic in the village, and calls Li Fenfang a butcher. Just ask Lin Yutong, a real veterinarian, to look at her.

Lin Yutong was shocked when she saw it. The disadvantage of not doing prenatal check-up came out. The placenta is attached to the front segment of the uterus. When giving birth, the stomach will not hurt, but the back pain will be accompanied by discomfort in the back and buttocks.

The birth was really difficult, and He Xiaowan’s mother was also there, feeling uncomfortable for her daughter and not knowing what to do. Aunt Jin, the mother-in-law, was right next to her daughter-in-law, helping to rub her!

The daughter-in-law said: "Mom, rub your butt for me!"

Aunt Jin bent over and kneaded her.

The daughter-in-law said: "Mom, rub your waist for me."

Aunt Jin moved up and kneaded her again.

He Xiaowan's biological mother was nearby and said to her daughter: "Be nice to your mother-in-law from now on." It's rare to see someone serving their daughter-in-law like this.

He Xiaowan said to her mother: "What are you talking about? If you are useful, why should I do this?"

Aunt Jin raised her hand and patted He Xiaowan's butt: "I'll rub it hard, and you'll bear it hard. Have a good life, and stop being picky here."

This child almost lost his temper, and then he was born just as the sun was rising.

Jin Laosan grabbed the Fourth Master to name his son, "What should I call him?"

The Fourth Master looked at the sunlight that was shining all over the yard: "It's called Qinghui."

The fourth child of the Jin family was born, named Qinghui.

Aunt Jin didn't care about the confinement period, and He Xiaowan's mother also said, go ahead and get busy, I'm here.

Nowadays, the He family is doing well. Both daughters are married, and the son is in his last semester. He has gone to a middle school for an internship and will become a teacher in the future, which is good.

He Xiaowan once asked her brother if she wanted to find someone to go to a government agency. It seemed like she had a good future.

He Xiaoqing refused to go, "I'm not suitable for those places..."

He doesn't like to talk, doesn't like to deal with people, and is out of tune with the people around him. People say that He Xiaoqing is very arrogant. In fact, he is not, he is just not good at dealing with these people and boring trivial matters. Find a school and study with a simple

Working as a student, you don't earn much, but it's enough to support your family, that's fine.

The internship school is in the junior high school of Taiping Town, only five minutes away from home.

He Xiaowan's mother is very satisfied. If she finds a similar daughter-in-law in the future, she won't have to worry about life. The eldest daughter has helped her mother's family, so now, she naturally has to help her daughter.

It's great to serve my daughter during her confinement period and help take care of her grandson!

Lin Yutong was busy reading when he got back. He had to prepare for the exam.

Fourth Master not only has to prepare for the exam, but he is also busy with something recently. Because the feed factory is very profitable, the superiors have given special quotas and allocated arrears to build roads.

This road needs to be built from Pingan Town to the county seat.

The feed here must be transported out continuously.

This is a big project.

Today's project management is not so strict. Even if there is a designated construction team, if your road must be repaired smoothly and to everyone's satisfaction, you must have a good relationship with all parties. Especially the villages and towns along the road. Half of the construction has been completed.

, one said it had taken over their family’s fields, and the other said it had taken over their family’s ancestral graves. Endless disputes can wear people out.

Therefore, the role of Fourth Master is very important, as he serves as a liaison between the superiors and subordinates and communicates with each other.

Just like the fire captain, he will be there wherever trouble occurs.

But it has to be said that Taiping Town really needs such a road.

But it’s not that easy to do. What’s wrong?

In the plan, this road must cross the streets of Ping'an Town, so that the streets will become more and more prosperous in the future.

But everyone knows that Taiping Town is an ancient town, the streets are original, and the houses and shops on the streets have been passed down in fixed positions for who knows how many years. Now when it comes to road construction, the Fourth Master will consider it in the future.

Years from now, will these streets and alleys be able to accommodate so many cars? Therefore, he wants to take the opportunity to ask everyone to shrink the space at the door and make the road as wide as possible. Two lanes will definitely not work, at least

It has to be four lanes.

Not to mention that the residents living on the street did not agree to this proposal, even the commune thought it was a fantasy.

Taiping Town is crowded with cars?

joke?

Do you think this is a small town in America?

Well! No one wants to divide the little profit now.

What should the Fourth Master do?

Starting from the feed factory, we don't pass through the streets of Ping'an Town. We follow the road outside the city and bypass the street. The four-lane carriageway goes directly around it. It's an extra two or three miles, but it leaves the small restaurant behind.

A row was completely planned from the outside of the city to its central location in the future.

The road on the street was still repaired, but the original road was covered with asphalt without expansion.

Two carriages can run parallel on this road, but two large trucks can't run parallel. Haha! Who will pass there in the future?

Jin Laoer accidentally saw the plan that Fourth Master had placed in the house, and then he knew the prices of the shops in front of his house.

The two brothers worked hard and got all the homestead land certificates. It was useless for anyone to argue anymore.

This road was built very quickly. After all, it is outside the city. It is all on wasteland or the original production path. There will not be any disputes with people at all.

In less than twenty days, we bypassed Ping'an Town and headed toward the county seat.

Some people who only watch the fun also said that now there are no big cars coming and going, and there is no such dust, and the children feel relieved when they go out. It is very good, and they praise the fourth master for his ability to do things.

There are also smart people who have figured out the way.

For example, Zhang Langcheng, the village chief. The starting point of the road is in Sancun. Where to go, he, the village chief, naturally has to nod. At first glance, the things Jin Laosi brought seemed fine. They all bypassed them, and no one could

Without encroachment, this was considered the best plan. Then he also found the village chief of the first village. According to the plan, when leaving the third village, he would definitely pass through the first village and occupy a piece of saline-alkali land in the first village.

The other side also agreed, since no crops could be grown on that land anyway.

But after the road was built, and when the feed truck entered the town and no longer took the old road but took this new road, Zhang Langcheng felt something was wrong.

Nowadays, the restaurant of the second brother of the Zhang family is very prosperous. There are many jealous people, but the second brother is very rural and kind. He has many brothers, and the fourth brother is still somewhat capable. I heard that he also has an elder brother-in-law.

In the provincial capital, I drove for big leaders. No one dared to reach out even if they were jealous.

With that restaurant as the center, it almost became a market.

There are those selling melons and vegetables, those selling steamed buns and fried dough sticks, and there are also half-grown boys who don't go to school and carry buckets to clean and wash people's cars. From morning to night, it is bustling.

This homestead was originally approved by the whole village at a meeting when Li Chengjin was the village chief. In addition to the Jin family, there are four other families. But now, only the Jin family has been built. The open space on both sides of the Jin family is now

There is a shed that was built spontaneously, and I can do some small business in it, just selling boiled water, and I can earn 18 cents a day.

This is the Midas touch that turns stone into gold. Just swipe it and you are holding the golden bowl and waiting to make a fortune.

Yingzi's place is really booming, but with the addition of old man Jin, there are not enough manpower. Jin Laoer comes back from the fields to help, and when it's time to eat, Shengzi also comes to help. When it's time to go to work, just find something to eat.

Gone.

The total income of that restaurant is actually higher than the income of Lin Yutong and Fourth Master.

Yingzi said that the rent should be paid to Lin Yutong and Fourth Master.

After all, they are using the front room for nothing.

It was pushed back and forth, and the monthly rent was 20, which was regarded as renting to the second family.

The other four households were nothing, and they soon realized that the empty wasteland in front of their door was actually a treasure land.

When they built the house, they built it together with the Jin family. Across the alley from the Jin family was a front house, and theirs was an open space. I thought it would be better to stay away from the road, otherwise the roar of vehicles and machines coming in and out would be overwhelming.

So noisy.

Now that I saw Yingzi's profit, I became anxious. I found someone to level the land and build a house quickly. Even if it was a thatched shed, I could collect a few yuan in rent a month.

But what about the result?

Murakami won’t let it go!

People have said that now the policy has changed and some adjustments need to be made.

Here it is said: "Then Jin's house is not all built."

Others also said: "The homestead certificate applied for by the Jin family has been issued, and it is recognized by the state. Do you have it too? Take it out and take a look!"

Who could have thought of this?

Which person in the village should apply for this thing alone? Who knows how to apply for this? Which yamen should be approached and what fees should be paid?

No one knows. Murakami put this together for everyone and then distributed it. Wasn’t it always like this before?

Right?

We can't say it at the beginning and then change it just a few years ago.

This doesn't make sense.

Words don't count.

Zhang Langcheng said that it was the members who agreed at the beginning, but now the vast majority of the members are still against it. It's not me seeking personal gain, right?

Then there was another meeting.

After all, there are only four companies here, so compared to most people, they are a bit lonely.

Zhang Langcheng is a good talker and deceiver. Someone said: "From now on, it will be the collective property of the village. We will raise funds to build a three-story front house. If you have anything to sell, you can go in and rent a stall for a short period of time."

The money earned will be distributed to everyone at the end of the year."

When I heard about dividends, it was about giving money.

Absolutely a good thing! What’s not to agree to? You must agree to it.

So, except for those four families who were unhappy, everyone else in the village was very happy. Moreover, Zhang Langsheng was very quick, and soon the homestead certificates were collectively issued. The other four families had no reason to cause trouble.

I was so angry that I could vomit to death at home.

The village raises funds, saying that each family will receive ten yuan, and dividends will be distributed at the end of the year, etc.

Lin Yutong paid it, knowing that ten yuan for a family and everyone's labor would be enough to build eight floors, not to mention 30%.

But what about money?

Where's the rest of the money?

Yuan Gaidi is now not only the director of the village's Women's Federation, but also the village's accountant and cashier.

How strange! The accountant and cashier are the same person.

That’s right! It’s just one person.

No matter where the money goes, her share is indispensable.

Although Zhang Lang was so capable, he couldn't get rid of Yuan Gaidi to take advantage of it all by himself.

Jin Laoer took advantage of the fact that shops were being built on both sides, so he added two floors to the original bungalow. It was flush with the surroundings and had three floors. Following the fourth master's suggestion, the second floor was a large venue and was not divided into

The two-store model has a large enough place, so it can be used as a private dining room in the future. The third floor is all divided into small partitions, which can be used as private rooms.

As soon as the building was completed, the Fourth Master came forward to invite people from the health, tax and other fields to go through all the necessary procedures. It was definitely not an unlicensed operation.

Two large three-story buildings were built next to each other on both sides. Inside are low walls made of bricks, half a person high, and then covered with wooden boards or cement boards, which serve as shelves for goods, row by row.

It looks very marketable.

Then the people in the first and second villages discovered that something was wrong. When there was a market in the past, although most of them were concentrated on the East Street, there were still people setting up stalls on the South Street of the West Street, which was popular.

But what about now?

Nowadays, as soon as the stalls are set up, there are a few local gangsters who attack people on the street and drive them to Dadongtou.

If you set up a stall, you will be paid 10 cents a day for each stall. Some people are not happy and wonder if they can make even 10 cents in a day? There is no charge when setting up stalls on the street.

People have also said that it is not cost-effective for one person to have a stall. You can find a few more people to put together a stall. You see, you are squatting outside, exposed to the wind and sun, right? At least there is a place for you to do it. There is a restaurant next door.

If you want something to eat, let's go and ask, and it will be delivered there. If you want to drink water, the restaurant provides hot water for free. It's also easy to go to the toilet. The Jin family has specially built a public toilet just below the door.

It's clean. It only costs a few cents, which is a great deal.

It seems to make sense.

So this market was built like this. Vegetable sellers, clothing sellers, and fabric sellers were assigned to a fixed area. If you were willing, this place would be rented out every day. You don't have to wait until the market time.

.

Good guy, people are coming in and out, it looks very popular.

The people in Sancun are very happy, and they will definitely have to share a lot of money at the end of the year.

A thoughtful person just curls his lips, not necessarily!

Why do you think so? Because to the east of the Jin's Restaurant, Zhang Langcheng's second son is charging. To the west of the Zhang's Restaurant, the third son of the Zhang family is charging.

How much does it cost, do you know or do I?

Only the two sons of the Zhang family knew.

Fourth Master and Lin Yutong were busy taking the exams in April and July. After finishing their work and no longer taking the exams in the second half of the year, they realized that the front of their house had become a busy place.

In fact, it is possible to insist on taking the exam, but you have to consider going to graduate school in the future, and considering whether the tutor will accept you or not, you have to ensure that your grades are at a certain level. Busy and busy, half-understood and half-understood, this is

Definitely not. The results are not convincing. It’s not just for getting a diploma.

Besides, even if the exams are completed in the second half of the year, you still have to wait until the second half of next year to study for graduate school, so there is no need to worry. Just wait for the exams in April and July next year.

July is on fire!

It's the hottest time.

After coming back to freshen up, Qingning took the couple to sleep outside under the grape trellis that night.

Why?

Because the other houses did not have courtyard walls, she had seen people enjoying the cool air in the courtyard in the evening.

At the door of every room, there are several not-so-thick sticks with ropes stretched on the tops. Poplar branches cut from poplar trees are hung on the ropes to block the sun's rays and keep the temperature in the room low during the day.

will be too high.

At night, the ground under the shed is covered with large square pieces made of snakeskin bags that are disassembled and sewn together. Every household has this thing, which is used to wrap cotton. The locals call this thing

Cotton bag.

This thing is spread in a place, a mattress is put on top, the pillows are taken out, and you can sleep under it to enjoy the coolness at night.

Children envy this!

Look! How wonderful this is! The whole family can sleep on it and see the stars in the sky.

I am forced to sleep outside.

The little old lady still has her own insistence and says she won't live outside. She has always adhered to the boudoir education and does not let others see her feet. She has to wear pajamas before sleeping after washing her feet at night. Sleeping outside? Resolutely not going.

Although the floor in my house is smoother than others, it is made of cement after all. After the cement has been exposed to the sun for a day, sleeping on it will be like a hot kang, so you won’t feel cool.

I definitely wouldn't be able to sleep that night.

There was no other way. The fourth master went to the county the next day and bought a big bamboo bed. The bed was not high, a little higher than the ground, reaching the adult's calves. He put a mat on it and brought mosquito nets with him to the four corners of the bamboo bed.

When it is empty, it is specially made by someone. A few bamboo poles can be inserted into it and a mosquito net can be tied to it.

This is great, I gave it to Qing Ningle at night, wallowing between my parents.

A small breeze was blowing, and I watched the stars twinkling in the sky. When I fell asleep, the night was quiet, and I could still hear the constant chirping of mosquitoes outside the tent.

After ten o'clock, the summer heat of the day has dissipated. I have to cover myself with a towel before I can sleep. In the distance are the frogs in the fields and the chirping of cicadas. Nearby are the mosquitoes singing quietly, and the tip of my nose is filled with the unique fragrance of earth.

Not to mention, days like this are indeed the most pleasant and comfortable, away from the intrigues.

The fourth master stretched out his left arm, and Tongtong rested on it. Tongtong stretched out his right arm, slightly lowered, and his daughter rested on it.

Lin Yutong gently scratched Fourth Master's belly.

The fourth master said a half-dazzled ‘hmm’.

Lin Yutong chuckled: "That's good too."

Fourth Master raised his hand and patted Tongtong on the shoulder. What kind of day would you not say would be nice?

There was a smile on his lips. After all, she felt pretty good whenever she was around.

The child's wish to live outside was fulfilled. Even if it was past midnight in the middle of the night, she and the fourth master would get up and carry the little ancestor with a bed under the grape trellis. Don't ask why they don't just live in the grape trellis.

Because I can't see the stars lying there.

Okay! That’s the reason for the child.

There is no reason at all.

One year older, my mouth is sharper, my legs and feet are sharper, and I am bolder.

How old is it? When she was so old, she dared to carry the family's flashlight in the evening and abduct Qingping while her grandmother was going to the toilet. Then the two sisters each had a flashlight and followed the older child eagerly, touching each other.

The cicada has gone.

Flashlights are not available in every household. The two little ones have two, and the older children love to bring them. They touch the monkey, touch the monkey, and use touch characters. It is a black light that lights up the fire, and it is on the tree.

If you touch the grass, you are lucky if you touch it. If you don't touch it, even if you don't touch it... you have to continue.

When children go out to touch this, even those who have flashlights are reluctant to use them.

There happened to be two little girls, each with a flashlight. The old-fashioned flashlight was very heavy, and the two people holding the flashlight could only illuminate a place as high as one person. The older children just coaxed them and told us to use them. It’s your share to touch them.

.

Qingping handed it over, but Qingning quickly grabbed it and hid it behind his back: "I agreed to give a few!"

"I'll give you one out of ten," the older child said.

"Three!" Qingning refused to give in, "Give us three out of ten."

"How do you two divide the three?" the eldest child asked again.

Qing Ning frowned and looked at him with a retarded look: "If you touch twenty, we will get six. We can't divide three, but six can't be divided?"

Older child: "..." A child who failed math cannot afford to be hurt.

The two bargained for a long time, and the result was that one flashlight drew three-tenths, and two flashlights drew six-tenths. Qingning plausibly said: "You have three flashlights, two flashlights are six..."

It seems right.

When the Jin family went crazy to find them, the two girls had already taken off their short sleeves, shamelessly naked, and wrapped two large piles of cicadas in their short sleeves.

The children over there only have one can each.

The two younger ones took away most of the loot.

Qing Ning hugged her father and said, "Look! There are so many! Tell mom to fry them and dad will eat them."

Then Jianliu got behind her father's back.

Her father took off his shirt and wrapped his shirt around his daughter. "Girls are so shy that they are not allowed to take off their clothes outside."

Then he didn’t talk about the child, he happily took his baby and a pack of cicada monkeys that even people with trypophobia wouldn’t dare to look at and went home.

As for the children's trophies, go back and wash them with water, then soak them in salt water. The next day, order four of them, peel them off even with the shells, and pinch the heads off by Lin Yutong, leaving only a little meat. Then put them in oil

The pot is fried. My goodness, the food is delicious.

Because I was scolded by my grandma, I didn’t dare to run out at night. When Fourth Master and Lin Yutong came back from get off work, they were sitting at the door with a small stool, holding their cheeks in their hands. When they saw the two of them, they jumped up. , "Dad, Mom! Catch the monkey."

Then his dad happily said yes.

I came back and washed off all the sweat, and changed into a vest and shorts. Lin Yutong held a flashlight, and the fourth master held the child in one hand, and held a long bamboo tweezer in the other hand, which was used to clamp the cicada monkey. As for Qingning,

He was holding a small plastic bucket in his hand.

A family of three strolled around. Not far from home was the canal. On the edge of the canal, there were rows of poplar trees. The little girl had experience, "That's the most... go there..."

Fourth Master and Lin Yutong were both shocked, wondering where this naughty kid would dare to follow someone to that place at night.

The roads on both sides of the canal are very narrow, and those who are not skilled enough dare not ride bicycles on them. On one side is the canal, on the other side is a slope, and on the other side of the slope is a deep ditch. It is the slope with poplar trees. You talk about summer,

Are the crops running out of water? The water in the canals has never been cut off. Whether it falls into a canal or a ditch, a child of this age will be killed.

Fourth Master reasoned with her and told her where she could go and where she couldn't go, "...it's stupid for people to put themselves in dangerous situations."

Qingning responded one after another, but did not insist on going to the ditch. The fourth master simply pulled the little girl: "Go to the orchard."

The orchard is our own and it is full of trees. There must be a lot of cicada monkeys in it.

The orchard at home has already produced fruit, but no one has been watching it. The big black dog named Heizi raised by Mr. Jin at home is always in the garden. Mr. Jin feeds it on time, and it does not need to be tied up, but it never needs to be tied up.

Neither will leave.

At the beginning of the year, when the fruit trees had just sprouted, Jin Laoer was sweating from working, so he took off the sweater vest under his cotton coat and put it on the tree. He forgot to put it on when he went home. When there were no fruits, Heizi went back to Jin's house, but then

It's been a strange few days. It's been raining for a few days. Jin Lao Er didn't go to the ground and Heizi didn't come back. So Jin Lao Er asked, "Why are you missing?"

Jin Laoer also thought so. Why didn't you come back? Where did you go?

I thought he had been caught and eaten, so I hurried to the fields to search, but it turned out that Heizi was guarding the vest and didn't move anywhere. He stayed there for several days without eating or drinking, and his tongue was so dry that it split.

After hunting, Jin Laoer won't worry about it when there are fruits. This is a good dog.

Don't eat what others give you randomly, and scream when someone comes near. It's originally in the back of your yard, and no one here dares to go in even if someone makes a noise in the yard.

Heizi knew no one in the family. He often saw Qingning when he came out from the back door to play. He tore off the wrappers of the candy in his bag and fed it to Heizi. Then he waved his hand and said: "...I've caught the cicada monkey and I'll prepare it for you tomorrow."

Eat..." He seemed to have a good relationship with Heizi.

In July, the peaches are already finished. The pears are still green and have no special taste. They are sour and not very delicious. The apples are not considered ripe, but they taste better when they fall on the ground.

Lin Yutong shined his flashlight on the ground, picked one up from under the tree, wiped the dirt on his clothes, took a bite, handed it to Fourth Master and asked him to taste it, he took a bite, frowned and shook his head, he didn't like the sour taste.

Tastes more than sweet.

He reached out and caught the cicada monkey from the tree and put it in his daughter's small bucket.

Qingning was happy and started to chatter. Some of his words were incoherent, but Lin Yutong generally understood the meaning.

She wanted red nails like that of others, and she also said that there was that flower in their yard, with small red flowers, some pink and some purple, and the most beautiful one was bright red, which could be dyed red.

Nails. That's called henna.

Lin Yutong told her that it was called impatiens.

She followed suit: "It's that impatiens flower...Pull one out...and wash it...and break it into pieces...and add a little bit of that white stuff...and then wrap it with those big leaves.

My fingers...and my feet...are red and beautiful after I wake up...Mom, please do my nails..."

Lin Yutong responded casually.

After I caught the child with me, I had to dye the child's nails again.

Where can I find impatiens?

I didn’t grow this thing at home. I pulled it from Han Cai’er’s house. Qingning chose a thick and strong impatiens with big red flowers, and came back happily. She also told Lin Yutong along the way that she must smash it.

The broken ones should be added with white stuff.

The white stuff is alum, which can make the color redder and make the dye last longer.

Lin Yutong asked her to call Qingping, "Dye it for your sister too."

Then the mother-in-law came back with Qingning and said, "Qingping is asleep. After you finish it, I will wrap it up and dye it for the girl."

Lin Yutong crushed it and wrapped a bunch of it for her mother-in-law, enough to stain her hands and feet.

When the fourth master came back, he saw that Lin Yutong had tied up his daughter's hands and feet. The little girl stretched out her arms, and there was nowhere to put her fat little hands.

He just laughed and came out after washing up. Seeing that there was still a lot left, he pulled Lin Yutong over and said, "Come on, come on, I'll dye it for you..."
