"Look at my dear baby, she's so happy when she hears she's going to eat dumplings. She's so knowledgeable!!" No matter what Qu Ning does, Qu Yiyi can always find something to praise her for, and this time is no exception. But there is nothing wrong with saying that. The dumplings are so delicious. They are made of pure white flour and filled with all kinds of good stuff. Most people only eat them two or three times a year.
"She will probably be a greedy little cat from now on. I carried her to the main room during dinner, and she cried because of the smell." Gu Xiaonian is really a mother, and she treats Xiao Quning mercilessly. The dark history was revealed.
Qu Ning: Don’t I want to lose face? ? ?
"I love to eat well, I love to eat well, I grow fast and I am tall!" Qu Yiyi praised Qu Ning again. In Qu Ning's previous life, this kind of behavior would be called a deep filter, probably as thick as a city wall.
"Sister, go and eat quickly. I'll just keep an eye on my dear baby." Gu Xiaoying said quickly when she heard Yue Cuiyun calling them.
"I think we can just bring the dumplings to the outer room to eat. This way, my dear, we don't have to go out, and our family can eat together. I'll go tell my parents." Qu Yiyi's head was spinning fast. , suddenly got an idea. Before she finished speaking, she hurried out.
Of course Qu Zhongdong and Yue Cuiyun were happy. Before, when the sun was not so strong at noon, they always carried Xiao Qu Ning to the main room. Now it is good to move to the outer room of the west wing to eat. They can be together when eating. Son.
But for Qu Ning, this was like a bolt from the blue——
I have to watch them eat delicious food again, and I want to cry!
She had no choice but to tell herself, go to sleep, there would be everything in her dreams. After chanting it many times, she really felt sleepy, and her little head went straight into Qu Yiyi's arms.
"Oh, why did Ning Ning fall asleep again?"
"Yes, I haven't shown her how to swallow a dumpling in one bite."
"Hahaha, my dear baby will sleep after eating, and eat after sleeping, just like a little piglet."
Qu Ning, who was just sleepy but not yet asleep: Bah, bah, bah, what kind of stinky brother is this!
After the fun, it's always time to say goodbye. Qu Yiyi has to go back again. She has to go to work tomorrow. Yue Cuiyun directed several children to cut leeks and pick beans for Qu Yi one by one. Qu Hongwei also dug out several three-finger-thick eight-edge loofahs from the loofah seedlings and put them on Qu Yi one by one. In addition to these, Yue Cuiyun also secretly stuffed some food stamps and vegetable stamps into Qu Yiyi's bag.
After returning home with a full load, Qu Yi made up her mind to hide it so that no one else would know. She had already made plans. When cooking, she moved the stove into the house and closed the doors and windows to prevent the smell from wafting out.
When she arrived at the gate of the compound, she got out of the car, took a small path and quietly walked home. The whole journey was smooth, but when she was almost at the door of her house, she was blocked by Mrs. Zhang who was taking her grandson out. She subconsciously lowered her head and glanced at the full bag of vegetables hanging on the handlebar of the car. Then she looked up at the smiling old lady Zhang, and her heart suddenly went cold.
It’s over, the food is no longer guaranteed!
"Are you going back to your parents' home?" Mrs. Zhang's voice was much gentler, but her eyes were fiery.
"Yes." Qu Yiyi trembled at the sight.
"A filial daughter!" Old Mrs. Zhang praised her, "But your parents really love you. Look at this big bag full of vegetables, eh? There are beans... and loofah now?" I am today When I went to buy it in the morning, we didn’t even have it here yet.”
Mrs. Zhang is not the kind of person who would open other people's pockets to see what's inside. In fact, Yue Cuiyun filled Qu Yiyi's pocket too full, and part of the loofah and beans were exposed. What she just said was not adulterated. In the county, no matter how much money you get, you can't exchange for beans or loofah. There are none at all.
The little skinny monkey being led by the old lady was much more straightforward. He swallowed a lot of saliva, and then muttered, "Fried loofah meat, loofah egg soup, bean stew, braised bean noodles, Stewed with potatoes, cabbage and beans..."
He knew a lot.
"Auntie, you're so kind!" The little boy with a particularly naughty mouth was watching the music as if he were watching a fairy daughter. His mouth was so sweet.
No, I'm not good at all! Qu Yiyi thought.
However, she still took two loofahs, a handful of beans and two peppers and exchanged them with Mrs. Zhang. Firstly, Director Zhang was the leader of her family, Lao Ran. If she refused directly, it would not look good on everyone. Secondly, Director Zhang’s house This baby is skinny compared to other children of the same age. I heard that he is naturally naughty and doesn't like to eat.
That night, the smell of vegetables wafted out from Qu Yi's family again, but the neighbors were used to it and opened their doors and windows. Even if they couldn't eat, it was good to eat their own cabbage and pancakes while smelling the aroma.
"How can grandpa's food be so delicious!" Ran Yuanchao had a huge appetite at the moment, but he didn't really like to eat multigrain pancakes, but after applying shrimp paste, he directly killed the three thickest ones and stewed them of course. He also ate less. Not to mention, the beans and chili that Youqu brought back one by one were delicious as well as the potatoes and cabbage in the stew.
"Grandma, Mom, let's have some stew tomorrow!" Ran Yuanjiang licked his mouth. His stomach was obviously bulging, but when he saw the remaining soup, he still wanted to eat it.
"Okay, I still want to eat this!" Grandma Ran also wanted to eat it. How could she have any objections? "If you ask me, my in-laws' ability to grow vegetables is really nothing to say. The taste is so good. Just stew it like this. It's better than the state-owned vegetable. The signboards in the hotel are delicious!”
"Yeah, it's more delicious than the meat braised by our master chef over there!" Ran Mingli has eaten a lot of delicious food due to work requirements, but it can't be compared with this pot of random stew that doesn't look very good. He drank two mouthfuls of water to suppress his burp, and then spoke again: "I'll come back to eat tomorrow, but you have to remember my share!"
"Isn't your unit in charge of the food? You have meat and vegetables, why are you messing around when you come back!" Before the two brothers could jump out to object, Grandpa Ran started to complain with a straight face. If the old man hadn't snatched the last piece of potato from Ran Mingli just now, Ran Mingli might have believed it.
"Yes, Dad, running back and forth will tire you out."
"That's right, let's eat it at work. You can also eat pig's trotters."
Ran Yuanchao and Ran Yuanjiang almost laughed out loud.
"Okay, then I'll bring the shrimp paste to work." Ran Mingli is not a vegetarian. As soon as he said these words, Ran Yuanchao's smiling face fell instantly. Ran Yuanchao has been eyeing this bottle of shrimp paste for a long time. He plans to take it to school tomorrow so that he doesn't have to force himself to eat dry and tasteless multigrain steamed buns at noon.
"Hey, why don't you have a holiday? I want to stay at my grandpa's house for a few days." Ran Yuanjiang, who was born in a brat, let out a long sigh.
Yes, why hasn’t the holiday come yet?
Ran Yuanchao is also worried!
The same scene also happened at Director Zhang’s house. After eating and drinking, the family of six still did not move, but suddenly sighed——
What to do? The remaining dishes can only be eaten together, so what will be the next meal?
"Hey, I don't know if Auntie Yiyi's natal family lacks a boy as old as me?" The little skinny monkey was extremely melancholy.
Of course, Qu's family didn't know these interesting things. The strong laborers had to earn work points, and the old man and the others were responsible for the private land. Fortunately, since Qu Ning was born, the family's health and bones have gotten better. Although they are a little busier, I really didn’t feel particularly tired.
In the day after day of work, the originally green wheat ears gradually turned golden. With so many fields connected together, when the wind blew, the golden waves of wheat surged, which was very beautiful.
The harvest season is here!
The adults are full of energy, and the children who are going to school are extremely happy. The wheat autumn holiday they have been waiting for has finally arrived. Although I still have to do some work like cutting grass, picking up manure, and gleaning wheat ears, it is much better than being locked up in school every day.
Gu Xiaonian was going to work, and she planned to run home to feed Xiao Quning during the break. No one in the family agreed with her behavior, and they all advised her to just stay at home and take care of the children. Running back and forth in this weather was too painful. However, Gu Xiaonian really didn’t feel that he had suffered anything. Some wives in the village didn’t have a proper confinement period after giving birth. I heard that there was a female captain of the production brigade who went to the ground on the third day after giving birth, let alone Considering that she had stayed at home for three months to take care of the children, compared with others, she seemed to have fallen into a lucky nest, so she was willing to do some work during the busy farming season.
In this way, only Yue Cuiyun, Qu Guosheng, Qu Xuan, Qu Xiang and Xiao Qu Ning are left in the family. Qu Zhongdong has already been busy with the private plot, watering, accumulating fertilizer, picking vegetables, I'm so busy that I haven't had time to walk around the yard with little Qu Ning in my arms.
The first day of Mai Qiu's vacation was also the first day of work for Qu Hongwei and the others. It wasn't until it was getting dark that the children followed the adults home. Qu Hongjun and Qu Guoqing, who were assigned to pick up wheat ears by the captain, started chattering as soon as they came back until their parents stripped them of their clothes and threw them into the iron The pot just stopped.
They were so embarrassed that they didn't allow Wang Zhaodi and the others to wash, nor did they let them watch. They also repeatedly told them not to call their sister out.
Qu Hongwei had no time and was not in the mood to laugh at the two brothers. He was assigned to the matter of accumulating fat, and he smelled very bad. As soon as he got home, he boiled water and took a bath.
After everyone had cleaned up and had dinner, the children at home rushed to the west wing again, vying to report the results of their labor to Xiao Qu Ning——
"I picked up a lot of wheat ears today, including two baskets!"
"It's just that little, good baby, good baby, I'm still better, I picked up three baskets!"
"I also helped Uncle Lin gain weight. The captain said that I was almost half a strong man, so he deducted 5 work points for me, 5!"
As soon as Qu Hongwei mentioned the work points, Qu Hongjun and Qu Guoqing instantly withered. There were only one or two of them, and the gap was too big. The younger ones, Guosheng and Qu Xuan, raised their little heads and looked at their elder brother with envy. Five work points is a lot.
They also want to earn work points, so majestic!
So, Guosheng and Qu Xuan went to their grandparents to tell them about this.
"Why are you suddenly thinking about earning work points? You two are still young -" The old man was quite proud to see them loving labor so much. This was his grandson who taught them! However, they are proud of themselves, and they absolutely cannot allow such an older child to go to the fields. "Help you choose vegetables, wash vegetables, and turn on the bellows at home is also labor!"
"Yes, there are no work points!" The two brothers were quite persistent, "They all have it, but we don't. Xiangxiang and Guabao are still young, how can we meet each other!"
Qu Zhongdong almost died from laughing. Now that he is a little older, he knows whether he can meet people or not.
In the end, Gu Xiaonian came up with an idea, "It's okay, you can help grandma at home, and our family will mark the family points for you two, and you can exchange them for meat at the end of the year. How about that?"
"Yeah, yeah!" The two brothers, who were frowning, were instantly happy. It's good to earn a share, and when it's Chinese New Year, I'll exchange it for a big piece of meat and give it to my dear baby.
Guabao will definitely like me the most by then!
They both thought happily in their hearts.
