The Sweet Little Fulang - Chapter 200

After looking for and looking at each other for half a month, the second mule in the family was brought back.

Ji Qiuyue was very happy these two days. The villagers knew that their family had bought another mule. Many people came to see it. She could finally say that it was bought by Daqing of their family. Er returned to her parents’ house and drove the mule cart to show her parents’ family, so that they would also know that Shen Yaoqing was capable.

The mules bought this time are still tall and strong, and the frail Shen Yaoqing does not look down on them. For the country people, a tall horse can’t afford a dozen or two taels. The donkey is smaller, and it is not as good as a mule to pull a cart.

In the middle of the morning, it was neither cold nor hot. Lu Gu came to the big house with Ling Geer to play with Zhaoer. After holding his arms for a long time, he was a little tired, so he pulled the wooden cradle and came out in the courtyard, and put Xiao Linger in the cradle to sit. At this point, Zhao’er was sitting on the small chair and nibbling on a small piece of steamed bun in her hand. Seeing this, she stood up. A little fat hand grabbed the cradle and raised her foot to step in and sit together.

“Okay, little mama hugs you.” Lu Gu smiled helplessly. Fortunately, the wooden cradle was bigger, and the two children could barely sit in it with their legs next to each other.

The child is always restless and can’t sit still. Zhao’er’s legs are longer than Ling’s, and he almost kicked Lingjun when he moved. Lu Gu quickly held his leg and said, “I can’t move, I’m kicking my brother, right? “

Zhao’er is still pretty good today, she doesn’t let her legs move, she sits opposite Xiaoling and eats steamed buns.

Now it’s been a warm day, and the steamed buns are cold but not too cold. He eats the steamed buns while he eats them. Lu Gu wipes his mouth and chin with a handkerchief from time to time. Clean it up again.

Brother Ling cried twice, and stretched out his hand to reach for Zhao’er’s steamed buns. Zhao’er was a miser, and his fat hand shrank back, causing Xiao Linger to purse his mouth and cry.

Ji Qiuyue, who had made the bed, came out and saw that her son was so stingy, she laughed and scolded: “How much did you eat in a while, what’s wrong with giving your brother a bite?”

Zhao’er held the last bit of steamed buns in her hands, and even though no one reached out to grab it, they hurriedly stuffed them into their mouths, and the fleshy cheeks moved, and they clapped their hands like an adult, and then opened their palms to Xiaoling. The child indicated that there was no more.

Seeing that Lingjun stretched out his arms, his little fingers were touching his brother’s mouth, as if he was about to pull the steamed buns out of Zhao’er’s mouth, he hurriedly went into the hall to break some steamed buns, and said with a smile, “You are still young, Don’t dare to eat too much.”

On the contrary, Ji Qiuyue encouraged Xiao Lingjun by the side: “Our brother Ling is amazing, that’s all, deduct it from him and see if he will dare to be stingy in the future.”

Lu Gu smiled and didn’t say a word. After putting the steamed buns in Brother Xiaoling’s hand, he stopped pressing Zhao’er’s mouth.

“Look at you, when your brother sits in the cradle, you have to rush to sit, squeeze it for your brother, and come down.” Ji Qiuyue took Zhao’er out of the cradle while scoffing.

“No, no!” Zhao’er twisted and struggled a few times, but he didn’t twist his mother. Fortunately, when he turned his head and saw half a steamed bun on the table in the room, he stopped moving.

“I still want to eat!” Ji Qiuyue raised her voice involuntarily, but she would cry if she didn’t give Zhao’er a gesture, so she had to break a small half of it for him, and eat the rest quickly, don’t let the **** see the food, it won’t Always want.

Brother Xiaoling is now seven months old, and has grown three small white deciduous teeth, gnawing on broken steamed buns and smashing them in his mouth.

“It’s true that the girls are more worry-free than the bastards, and they eat more gracefully.” Ji Qiuyue took the wild vegetable basket and sat down to choose vegetables. Seeing that Lingge’er was so fair and graceful, she loved it all.

Lu Gu and her chose together, and Xiao Huang, who was lying in the courtyard sleeping just after getting started, barked outside the courtyard door. The two of them looked up together and saw that Nanny Ah Jin came with a taller Xiao Shunzi.

“Ajin’s milk.” Ji Qiuyue called out, stopped Xiao Huang after drinking and asked with a smile, “Is it free today?”

Lu Gu got up and took out two benches so that people could sit down.

“Oh, this small appearance is really handsome.” A Jinnai couldn’t help but rejoiced when she saw the little brother sitting in the cradle, such a beautiful and clean baby doll is rare in the countryside.

The chubby Zhao’er walked over to Xiao Shunzi while eating steamed buns and looked up at him. Nanny Ah Jin looked at Zhile: “Oh, it’s really the same as the painting in the same year.”

After talking a few words around the child, she asked, “I heard that the young boy bought a mule and came back?”

In the past, when Shen Xuanqing was not born, Shen Yaoqing was alone in the village with the word “Qing” in his name, and he was sometimes called “Qing boy”.

Speaking of this Ji Qiuyue’s face, the happy look on her face came up all of a sudden, knowing her intention, she led the people to the backyard, and said as she walked, “No, there are many things at home, the second brother drove the mule cart to Jixing. Town, we still have to send rabbits to Fenggu Town, and there is no mule cart driver who really stumbles, so I’ve been borrowing them from others, and it’s not suitable, so I just bought one.”

Xiao Shunzi followed the two of them to the backyard. She looked around and didn’t see the big goose. She let out a sigh of relief. Last year, the big goose pinched her butt. A mule will not come alone.

Zhao’er would walk away, and would carefully go up and down the steps while leaning against the wall. Ji Qiuyue didn’t hold him, and let him walk slowly behind the adult’s ass.

Lu Gu picked up Lingjun and saw that the little steamed bun in his hand was finished, so he rubbed the **** of the steamed bun in his palm and went to the backyard together.

The mules were grazing, and A Jinnai stood outside the circle and watched for a while, smacking her tongue and saying that it looked like a good animal, and then asked how much it cost and other trivial things.

Ji Qiuyue and Lu Gu accompanied her to talk for a while. She wanted to see the rabbit again, so she led her to the rabbit shack.

The duck house and goose coop are further back, and there is no big goose in front of them, so Xiao Shunzi has a solid skin. He uses the grass to tease the rabbits to scratch their ears and play, but most rabbits are timid and shrink into the nest when strangers approach. from.

Seeing that he touched the latch of the cage, Ji Qiuyue quickly stopped him with a smile, “Don’t say no, the cage can’t be opened, it’s hard to catch the rabbit if it runs away. Your two brothers are not here at the moment, so I won’t chase the rabbit.”

“You don’t have the king’s law, and I won’t beat you again.” A Jinnai then scolded.

Xiao Shunzi withdrew his hand. He was skinny since he was a child, and he was used to being scolded and beaten. His left ear went in and his right went out, but this was in someone else’s house, so he still remembered the rules and stopped touching him.

After watching the mules and rabbits, Nanny Ah Jin was satisfied, and took Xiao Shunzi back after not staying for too long. There is still work to be done at home.

Ji Qiuyue and Lu Gu sat in the front yard again to choose vegetables. This was dug yesterday afternoon. The wild vegetables were a little wilted after leaving them overnight, but don’t worry, they blanched them with water at noon and chopped a piece of dried tofu.

I went back to my hometown later, and I didn’t wash the selected wild vegetables.

Lu Gu picked up Xiao Lingjun who was in the wooden cradle again, and let the child stand on his lap a few times and play with it.

Zhaoer squatted in the courtyard and used a short wooden stick to stab the ground, fearing that he would stab herself, Ji Qiuyue squatted beside him and watched. After she had a child, Shen Yaoqing seldom let her do the work in the field, and only took good care of the child. If her son was injured, it would not be her fault.

Just like her, Lu Gu seldom does heavy work these days. He doesn’t do much work in the fields and feeding livestock. The two often watch their children in one place, and they don’t have a company.

Now that the spring is coming, Wei Lanxiang and Shen Yan are herding cows and ducks, and there are still more than ten acres of fertile land to be hoeed and turned over. After getting busy, cooking and laundry are naturally their jobs. The two hold hands with each other. It’s better than being alone.

Even so, they don’t have to carry their children down the mountain, which is a comfortable life that many people envy in the village.

The villagers have to cultivate the fields and dig wild vegetables, go up the mountain to collect firewood for burning fire, and pluck bamboo shoots to collect mushrooms and wild tea. Women and husbands with children either carry their children in bamboo baskets, or carry them on their backs. After being able to walk and run, for fear of making trouble at home and damaging things, they take them to the ground with them. The adults are busy beside them, and they don’t care about the children. The children sit on the ground, or play and roll in the ground, and are often covered in mud.

Although it’s a familiar thing, Wei Lanxiang managed to get two grandchildren. How could she be willing to let her child do this, squat down and get up on her back, bumping up and down, and the wind and the sun are blowing, how can such a small child feel good.

Furthermore, Shen Yaoqing and Shen Xuanqing also love their sons. They have studied and often walk in the town. They have seen the situation of small wealthy families raising children. Compared with the two sides, the villagers are poor and pitiful, and the children are even more pitiful. , even if you work a lot and suffer a lot.

The sun was getting bigger, and it was a bit dazzling to sit outside, so they moved to the main room, Zhaoer got a hand of soil, Ji Qiuyue patted him, and seeing that it was not clean, he got water to wash him.

Xiao Lingjun sat on Lu Gu’s lap obediently, and Lu Gu picked up the rattle on the table and shook it for him, and said, “Sister-in-law, if the sun is so good tomorrow, I’ll play some robes at the old mansion at noon and give it to him. The two of them make two pairs of small shoes.”

The child is growing fast, Lingjun is okay, Zhaoer’s shoes last year will not be able to wear this year, Ji Qiuyue nodded: “Okay, there is some cloth there, mother, tomorrow I will look through your older brother’s old clothes, I remember him There is an old garment that has been mended many times, and I simply take it apart.”

As he was talking, Lu Gu glimpsed the figure at the back door in the distance. Even if it was far away, he knew that it was Chen Dongdong and his in-laws. Brother Dong came over with his in-laws in the early morning and pulled an old scooter outside to pull weeds.

Recently, the grass has not been as vigorous as in the summer, and the sickle can’t be used. Most of the time, he stretches out his hand. Chen Dongdong usually gets a cart in the morning, goes home to rest at noon to cook, and gets another cart in the afternoon, accumulating copper coins scatteredly.

After they came over, Ji Qiuyue raised the teapot and asked with a smile, “Uncle, auntie drink tea.”

“No, no, I haven’t finished drinking it in the bamboo tube yet.” He Liushi waved her hand to push back, she was not tall, her face was yellow and thin, but now there was a little more smile on her face, and she was no longer so sad and always frowning. of suffering.

She and He Zhifa He Cheng went back first, and Chen Dongdong stopped to tease the children because he saw Brother Xiaoling and Zhaoer.

“It’s so good.” He shook his rattle with a smile on his brows and eyes, at least a little less cowardice in front of Lu Gu and Ji Qiuyue, and more smiles when he was able to say a few words.

Last year, mowing the grass made their family at least 600 to 700 bucks more. Not to mention that He Zhi helped with the encouragement at home, and cut a lot of grass. Only 6 or 7 dollars can spend a long time for them. Life is much better than before. During the New Year’s Festival, if you have money to cut two catties of meat, you can also afford a big piece of tofu, so how can you be unhappy.

Ji Qiuyue said with a smile: “It’s almost spring, if Uncle He and Aunt He doesn’t go to the fields, then tell them to slow down and get a carload of grass a day.”

She and Lu Gu wanted to see their children. Spring ploughing was too busy to take care of mowing the grass. He Zhi’s parents couldn’t do the heavy work in the fields, so they thought of saying it earlier.

“Well, I’ll ask my parents to come over then.” Chen Dongdong agreed with a smile. When he went back, he would go to the river with He Liu to carry water, so he went home first.

After Ji Qiuyue watched him step out of the hospital door, she sighed softly when she couldn’t see it, and when she saw Lu Gu looking over, she whispered, “I went to the third grandma’s house yesterday, and I heard a couple of Aunt Wu and grandma Xia. Gossiping, mentioning Brother Dong, saying that he can’t have a child, he has been married for a few years, and there is no news, it is really a gossip basket, she is the most broken mouth, she likes to make irresponsible remarks, and does not look at his family Wu Lao Silian The daughter-in-law can’t even get it, let’s talk about others.”

“Brother Dong is too thin, so she was not pregnant because she was weak.” Lu Gu was also displeased with those who talked behind their backs, and subconsciously defended. He knew that Ji Qiuyue had been chewed on her tongue, and after Zhao’er was born, Wei Lanxiang could be considered proud.

Ji Qiuyue felt the same way, and replied casually: “No, I see that the red marks on the brows of Dong Ge’er are good. I will take care of it slowly, I am afraid that I will give birth to several.”

Hearing this, Lu Gu smiled and responded: “Definitely.”

The two of them talked for a while with the enemy, and when they saw Shen Yaoqing coming back from the field, they took the children back to their hometown to cook without locking the courtyard door.
