Just as she was about to say something, Li Miao's voice came from outside the door.
"Fourth Aunt, are you at home? The meal is almost ready!"
"Hey, okay! Your aunt is back, you go back first and let me make more milk!"
After Wang Can replied, he looked at Li Yuan a little shyly, but also a little excitedly.
"Sister Yuan, brother Junzi, Caiwei and the others have been there these days, and then Nai and the others asked me not to cook at home. Shall we go there together now?"
Seeing this, Li Yuan said with a smile on her face: "It seems that you have a good relationship with Nai and the others, and they also like you very much."
Wang Can was proud of himself. While raising the corners of his mouth slightly, he also raised his chin slightly, "Well, Nai, Uncle Niang and the third aunt are very good, and I like them very much. But I didn't go to eat in vain, Nai and the others shouted When I went to eat, I asked Brother Junzi to bring rice and noodles. Don’t I grow some vegetables by the kang every day? I also provide the vegetables in the old house. "
Li Yuan is also the kind of person who is not willing to take advantage. When she heard Wang Can give food and vegetables, she said nothing more.
After all, what they used to eat was not one or two meals, nor one or two people, so they had to give what was due.
When Li Yuan arrived at the old house, Caiwei was standing at the door. When she saw her, she flew towards her like a butterfly.
"Mom, are you back? Where is my master, is she home?"
"Before we got home, we met someone who came to pick her up on the way, so my mother came back first."
As soon as Caiwei heard that Master was picked up, she carefully took out a handkerchief from her arms.
"Mom, I have made this in the past few days, and I feel that my embroidery skills have improved a bit. I give this handkerchief to you, I hope you like it."
Li Yuan spread it out and saw four small green plums embroidered on the four corners. The craftsmanship was indeed better than when Su Mingshan left a few days ago.
At least she could see Qingmei at a glance.
She put the handkerchief into her arms and reached out to touch the little girl's head: "Mom likes it very much, thank you Caiwei!"
Caiwei breathed a sigh of relief quietly. Before her master was about to leave, she rushed to give him a handkerchief.
At that time, neither her mother nor her aunt-in-law was around, and she was afraid that her mother would feel bad about it.
Now I finally add one!
Thinking of this, she looked at Wang Can, who was looking at them.
"Auntie, I've thought about your handkerchief. It's a red hikerchief. But I don't know how to do mandarin ducks or anything like that yet. I can ask my uncle to draw two lotus seeds for me, and I can embroider them with white thread, okay?"
When Wang Can heard that the lotus seeds were embroidered on the wedding handkerchief, his face turned red and he asked a little embarrassedly: "Why would Cai Wei want to embroider lotus seeds?"
"The lotus seeds are small and relatively simple. Grandma said it has a good meaning, so I thought about embroidering this."
When Li Yuan heard that this was her aunt's disguised birth, she patted Wang Can and said, "Old people are like this, so don't worry about it. Just take it as a blessing!"
Now is not the time to have a child at all. Her second sister-in-law is already pregnant, but her third sister-in-law is not yet pregnant.
If a famine strikes next year, it will be particularly troublesome to take a pregnant woman with you if you run out.
Don't dare to go fast, don't dare to keep rushing. If you feel a little uncomfortable, you have to stop.
It would be even more troublesome if you gave birth to a baby halfway.
Her second sister-in-law's belly is already three months old, and now it's the twelfth lunar month. When she gives birth, it will be around May or June.
This time was not bad, as long as the drought did not happen earlier, she would have finished her confinement by the time they left.
Just when Wang Can returned to Caiwei to embroider the lotus seed handkerchief, Qingsha also came out.
The little girl wore a pink jacket today, and her hair was tied in a bun with a hair tie of the same color.
When she saw Li Yuan, she hurried over and threw herself into her arms.
"Mom, Sasha misses you!"
After Li Yuan touched Caiwei's head, she bent down and picked up Qingsha.
"Come on, let's go see what delicious grandma made for dinner!"
When Caiwei saw her mother hugging her sister, envy flashed in her eyes.
Just as she was about to walk ahead, she was suddenly picked up.
She turned around and saw Wang Can, and her face instantly turned red.
"Auntie, I have grown up and can walk by myself."
Wang Can also cares about Caiwei, but when Qingsha is around, most of her attention will be on little Qingsha.
If Qingsha hadn't been picked up by Li Yuan just now, and her eyes happened to catch Caiwei's expression, she wouldn't have thought that this child also longed for someone to hold her in public.
Anyway, she is very strong, and it is not far to go to the kitchen. In addition, Caiwei is still very thin, so it is not particularly difficult for her to hold her.
When he heard this, he smiled and said: "My aunt knows it, but before this, my aunt has never hugged you properly. Can you let me hug you today? It doesn't have to be far away. It's just at the door of the kitchen." Come down."
Caiwei raised the corners of her mouth slightly and her eyes were bright.
But he was still embarrassed after all. After listening to Wang Can's words, he buried his head on her shoulder and neck.
She thought that as long as her sister was with her, her aunt wouldn't care about her so much.
It seems that she has gone astray!
Her aunt also cares about her very much, but because she is old and has to worry about her image, it is difficult to show it.
That night, everyone sat down to eat together. Since there were four generations living in the old house and there were many people, three tables were set up in the main room.
The men are Old Man Li, Li Dahai, Li Sanhai and Li Rui, Li Duo, Li Zheng and Li Jun's four cousins plus Wang Maocai, eight people per table.
On the women's side, Mrs. Wang brought her two daughters-in-law and three grandson-in-laws to the table.
As for Li Yuan and Wang Can, they were at a table with four children.
Old Li, who was sitting at the top, talked about the disaster and asked Li Yuan: "Mother Yuan, where are you sending Miss Su back this time? What's the scene like outside? I've heard from the victims these days, The house is crushed. The government doesn’t care, and there is no food. We can’t even enter the city. They also say that a pound of rice and flour costs thirty or fifty cents. Is that true?"
"Sir, I only went to Liufeng County this time. We had been taking the official road before, and we didn't know much about the villages in other places. But then more and more refugees came, and they wanted to rob things, and they needed to rest at night. He deviated from the official road and went to rest in the woods. Later, when he was returning to the official road, he passed by a village and saw clearly what was going on."
When she said this, everyone looked at her: "Has the village been destroyed?"
"More or less, everything about the house is buried under the snow. We don't know the specific situation. We only know that some government officials drove them away with whips. Oh, by the way, they also tied them up with ropes and asked them to be considerate of the county. It was not easy for the adults to send them to places where they could eat and drink. Then, they all came to our Liuyun County. There is a big difference between the city and the outside of Liufeng County. Those government officials even asked us for money, and if we didn’t give it, they would Don’t let me go.”
When Old Man Li heard this, he sighed deeply: "Mr. Chen is about to leave, and I don't know what the next county magistrate will be like. I heard that his surname is Xu and he is from Beijing. But he must not be like the one from Liufeng County. That’s good, otherwise what will happen next?”
