Yang Rui was very tired after working for a day.
While stuffing rice into his mouth, he watched the interaction between his wife and the two children, and the corners of his mouth were raised so high that they almost reached behind his ears.
Isn't it just for the three people in front of me that I work hard and actively make money?
Seeing Yang Rui's smile, Wen Nuan couldn't help but laugh. Even the two children seemed to sense the warm atmosphere and were grinning.
Although they didn't make a sound, you could tell from one look that Chengcheng and Tiantian were very happy!
Nuan Nuan: "Tomorrow is the 20th day of the third lunar month, Grain Rain. They say that before and after Grain Rain, you should plant melons and beans! Should we plant vegetables?"
Yang Rui nodded: "I'll go and help the servants take care of the land before it gets dark, and I'll plant the vegetables tomorrow!"
Nuan Nuan looked out the window: "It's almost dark now, shall we do it tomorrow? I brought back some rapeseed from the supply and marketing cooperative that is not commonly grown in our village. Let's plant it together tomorrow!"
"What kind of rapeseed?" Yang Rui was a little curious.
"Anyway, there are quite a lot. Sister Wu at the agricultural product counter recommended me to get them. I divided them into packages and wrote down the names of the varieties." Wen Nuan counted with his fingers:
"There are tomatoes. I heard from Sister Wu that this variety of tomatoes has many, big and sweet fruits, and they are also pulpy. When we make a fire iceberg, it may be more delicious!"
"What does it mean to burn an iceberg?" Yang Rui, a local man, had never heard of this term.
Wen Nuan: "Haha, is this confusing you? It's just tomatoes mixed with sugar! When Sister Wu told me about burning icebergs, I was also confused!"
"In addition to tomato seeds, there are also watermelon seeds. I heard people say that this watermelon is very delicious. It is also pulpy and sweet. The big ones can weigh more than ten kilograms! There are also seeds like cucumbers and peppers! We can have them tomorrow. I have to plant it, I haven’t eaten watermelon in a while, I’m so hungry!”
Yang Rui will definitely implement his wife's arrangement without any compromise: "Okay, I will plant it tomorrow, and I will make sure you can eat it!"
After dinner, Yang Rui wanted to boil water. He had dirt on his body and head and needed to wash it off. Just as he was about to go, Yang Rui was stopped by Wen Nuan: "You've been working all day. Take a break and play with the two kids. Water." I’ll just burn it!”
Yang Rui didn't refuse much. As a couple, they don't have many polite words and support each other.
You are tired today, so I will do the housework;
I don't want to move when I get back from get off work tomorrow, so you can do it.
Yang Rui sat by the kang and looked at the two drowsy little boys, who seemed to be sleeping but not sleeping, and whose eyes were still half-open when they were sleeping, what the hell! Why is he so handsome? Yang Rui felt proud.
Use a big iron pot to boil water quickly and it will be ready in no time!
Wen Nuan walked into the back room lightly and pointed outside to indicate that the water was boiling.
Yang Rui nodded and went out without saying anything else.
Since Chengcheng and Tiantian were born, Yang Rui and Nuan Nuan would whisper and try not to disturb them when they slept.
Went to the West Room, which was not occupied yet and was only used as a bathroom. The two of them had a tacit understanding. Yang Rui bent down and put his hand on the washbasin. Wen Nuan took a water ladle and poured water on Yang Rui's hair.
I had just finished washing my hair and was about to scrub my body when the child in the east room started crying.
Wen Nuan put down the water ladle: "You can wash it yourself! I'll go over and look after the child! Maybe he's hungry!"
Yang Rui's hand that wanted to retain him stopped in mid-air, and he gritted his teeth: Is it Chengcheng or Tiantian? They really don't know how to find time. Their father has been a vegetarian for how long. He was just about to get some welfare when he was interrupted!
I had no choice but to wash up in a hurry and go to the east room to help look after the children.
After all, based on his experience, if one makes a fuss, the other will also make a fuss for a while.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At this time, a special "guest" who rarely comes to Yang Cong's house came - Yang Zhe.
If you say he is a guest, he is actually his eldest brother; if you say he is not a guest, he is indeed a separate family, and Yang Zhe has never been here since the house was built.
Yang Cong: "Brother? Are you here for something?"
At this time, Yang Zhe looked a little embarrassed. Originally, he didn't want to come and wanted Li Dani to come, but then he remembered that Li Dani had a bad relationship with his second sibling Zhou Jie, and he was afraid of messing up the matter again, so he had to take action himself. Got it!
"That's what happened. Your eldest nephew, Tietou, our eldest grandson, is getting married. The gift is not enough. I was just thinking..." Although Yang Zhe did not say the following words. But Yang Cong on the opposite side also understood.
He knew his eldest brother's character. If he borrowed it, he would be able to pay it back. However, he was his eldest brother. This was the first time someone asked him to borrow money. He couldn't refuse outright. He had to decline politely:
"Brother, didn't we divide a lot of money when we split up the family? Fifty yuan isn't enough to get a wife?"
Yang Zhe continued: "Your nephew, he has fallen in love with a girl from Da Li Tuozi. The girl's family wants a gift of sixty-six yuan. I really can't help it, but we can't wrong the child!
You see, when the fourth child got married, his parents gave him 200 yuan as a bride price. I can’t go too far! "
Yang Cong: ...You can't compare with your parents, so don't compare. There's nothing to compare with!
"The eldest grandson got married, and his parents didn't give anything?" Yang Cong asked.
Yang Zhe answered truthfully, but he thought he was very smart and only said that his parents were out, and did not say much: "My parents took some, but it's not enough!
The glory gift is sixty-six yuan. Also, you are not allowed to buy a piece of red cloth for your new wife to make clothes when you get married?
There is also a lot of money for hosting banquets and entertaining guests! My family can't afford it, so I came to you! We are brothers, you have to help me! "
Now you remember that we are brothers? Why are you eating and taking advantage without remembering that we are brothers? Yang Cong rolled his eyes secretly and complained in his heart.
Seeing that the second child didn't respond, Yang Zhe felt annoyed. He, the eldest brother, was already so humble. This second child really didn't know how to praise:
"Second brother, why don't you give me twenty? I saw my sister and I worked in the supply and marketing cooperative a few months ago, so I must have saved a lot, right? I should be able to give twenty, right?"
Zhou Jie, who was listening nearby: ...If I can take it out, I have to give it to you? Why? Because of your big face?
She immediately became annoyed: "Brother, we are all old farmers who depend on the weather for a living, and we may not earn twenty yuan a year.
You asked for twenty when you opened your mouth. Do you really think that the money came from the strong wind? You don’t have to worry about Feng Da flashing your tongue when you say this! "
Yang Zhe is a person with a strong self-esteem. When his younger brother and sister said this to his face, he felt very angry: "Brother and sister, you are making yourself public when you say this! We are all close, and the bones are broken and the tendons are connected!"
"Don't tell me about breaking bones and tendons! I don't believe it!
Because I didn't pay attention to my steps, I stepped on the ice formed by my sister-in-law's splashing water, and I gave birth to a small stone early. My body was not good, and the small stone was also weak. Why didn't you tell me at that time that you broke the bones and connected the tendons?
Dad braved the wind and snow to bring back a sheep from the other side of the mountain to feed the stone.
Just for this, I will thank him all my life. When my parents get old, it is my duty as a daughter-in-law to take care of them!
There was also my fourth brother, who was only a little older at the time. He was a teenager in the middle of winter. He caught a pheasant for me from nowhere so that I could eat it to replenish my body and release milk.
Third brother and Wanya also help out every day. I have never touched the diapers, but Wanya washes them! The third brother also did the work of chopping wood and boiling water, so we two were left to take care of the children.
If the third and fourth brothers’ families came to borrow money, I, Zhou Jie, would not leave any money behind and would lend them all without any hesitation.
What were you and Li Dani doing at that time? The ice I stepped on was made by Li Dani who poured water on the door just to be lazy. Even if she didn't mean it, she never said a word to me about it.
help? Don’t even think about it! She even took the time to say a few sarcastic words by my window!
I will remember the grudges made during confinement for the rest of my life! "
