Needless to say, after the meal, the second aunt went to wash the dishes. These days, just rinse the bowl with clean water. The scraping inside the bowl is cleaner than the face.
At around eight o'clock, the second uncle and the second aunt returned home with their two sons, and Li Laifu also got on the kang. The old lady fanned her as usual and almost hummed a lullaby.
Hurry up and plow some rice, and go to bed quickly, otherwise the old lady won't know when she will be fanned.
When she woke up the next morning, there were no more bicycles in the yard. The old lady saw Li Laifu changing from three steps to two steps, and hurried over and shouted: "Grandson is up."
Li Laifu also wanted to stop the old lady from giving him face wash, but Old Man Li said with a smile: "Grandson, don't stop your grandma, she will give you face wash. I don't know how happy I am."
The old lady held the washbasin and said happily: "As long as my eldest grandson is at home, I feel like I've been wiped with honey."
Li Laifu made three bowls of milk powder. The old lady sat down next to him and said, "I feel like I have gained weight recently. My eldest grandson has made his grandma fat."
Li Laifu enjoyed this doting and said, "Grandma, just be happy every day and take good care of yourself."
The old lady drank the milk powder and said with a smile: "Grandma is very happy recently. My eldest grandson comes back often and brings so many delicious foods to grandma. He is much better than your grandpa. Grandma has lived with him all his life. What a good thing." I haven’t eaten either.”
Old Man Li pretended not to hear, lowered his head, drank milk powder and looked into the distance...
After breakfast, Li Laifu went directly to the mountain. The old man and the old lady stopped stopping him now, knowing that they couldn't stop him.
Li Laifu walked down the mountain. There were a lot of people digging wild vegetables today because it rained yesterday. These women were also very well-behaved. They all called Uncle Laifu, and the younger ones called him "grandpa."
Some older children called him "Little Grandpa". After asking, Li Laifu found out that the children were the main force in digging wild vegetables, and those women were the ones who collected pig grass to feed the pigs for the brigade.
These women are really strong. They either carry a big basket on their arms or carry a large backpack. The key is to walk easily. The women of later generations carry convenient bags weighing several kilograms. When they walk to the supermarket and go home, their arms and legs will feel tired. If you don't tell me that your wife has worked hard and can't tell you where to find trouble, look at these women. They have baskets on their arms and sticks in their hands. Quickly call the children over, all of them still have smiles on their faces and still have time to chat. This is a woman who lives at home.
The funniest thing is when I used to watch TV, those little girls were picking flowers or grass from the mountains. These children saw flowers? It would be nice if you don't step on me. Who has the time to bend down and pick flowers? This group of children are all skinny, with big heads and small necks. Especially the eight or nine-year-old girl, who started to dig wild vegetables on her back with her younger sister or younger brother, and took out more than a dozen White Rabbit toffees from the space. This kind of sugar is also a nutritional supplement these days.
Regardless of whether they were big or small, each of them put a piece in their mouths, and the little grandpa and grandpa of the children shouted even more happily.
The biggest test in this era is the vitality of children. Medical care and hygiene are not available. They have to work hungry. A common cold may kill them, and a common fever may cause multiple fools.
Under the watch of a group of people, Li Laifu walked towards the mountain. He thought that he had to buy candy bars when he went back, but he was blackmailed by the old man with the hob meat. I found that the old man with the hob meat was no big or small. , it’s so damn irritating to think about his nemesis, actually asking him to question the spirit tablet...?
When we got to the mountain, we kept looking for bird eggs and small birds along the way. Although I didn’t want to eat them, it was good to give them to the children. Each of the grandfathers, uncles and young masters called me so dear, so I made them for these children. After eating bird eggs for a meal, these children are really not as good as when he was in the orphanage. At least they could still eat enough at that time. These children are even more pitiful than the orphans.
It took me two hours of wandering around the mountain to get there, and then I walked to the place where I dug the trap.
Looking at the dozens of bird eggs, dozens of small baby birds, and a dozen large birds in the space, are these going to be left to future generations? That's enough to kill him for five fucking minutes.
how to explain? I guess those people didn't have time to ask, so they could only say that Li Laifu was amazing.
All six traps were in good condition, and the corn cobs and pumpkin peels on them were eaten into pieces, which was a good thing caused by the pheasants.
But it was not without gain. I received two pheasants on the tree next to the trap.
He rearranged the trap and walked down the mountain, taking out dozens of bird eggs and a dozen pheasant eggs in the space, as well as the young birds and the big birds in his backpack.
Carrying the two pheasants, we walked down the mountain and walked to the door of the house to tell our grandparents. We took the pheasants down to stew soup for the children to eat. The old couple had milk powder and malted milk, so their bodies were not lacking in nutrients, not to mention that he would eat them every day. I cook a lot of meat every time I come back.
"Grandpa and grandma, I'm back."
There were actually people in the courtyard, an old lady and a young daughter-in-law holding a three or four-year-old child in their arms.
The old lady was talking. When she saw Li Laifu, who didn't care about anyone, she hurried over and asked, "Grandson, you are back. Are you hungry? Do you want grandma to cook for you now?"
In the old lady's mind, the big thing is that her grandson is hungry, and everything else is trivial.
Li Laifu replied: "Grandma, I'm not hungry," and casually put the pheasant at the door.
The old lady in the courtyard came over with her young daughter-in-law and said, "Brother Laifu, come back."
He was used to the old man and old lady calling him brother. Li Laifu nodded and said, "Let's go play in the mountains."
Li Laifu's face was not red, and his heart was not beating. He just said it so shamelessly. Who has time to play these days?
The old lady's mouth twitched, and she pulled her daughter-in-law and said, "Hurry up and call Uncle Fu."
"Uncle Laifu,"
Before Li Laifu could pretend to be an elder, the child in the woman's arms burst into tears.
The woman was a little anxious and said: "Grandma, please help this child call!"
The old lady next to her also touched the child and said to Mrs. Li: "Hurry up and call him. His sister-in-law took him to our ancestral grave today. He is probably ignored by his wicked grandfather."
"Then you go inside,"
Li Laifu followed his grandma into the kitchen. The old lady took three chopsticks and a large bowl and scooped half a bowl of cold water into the vat.
Li Laifu looked at his grandma and muttered something while turning his chopsticks over the child's head three times.
The old lady put three chopsticks upright in the water and said: "Lai Gen, Lai Gen, is it you? Is it you? Stand for a moment, Lai Gen, Lai Gen, it's you, just stand for a moment...?"
Li Laifu watched attentively, but the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law didn't even speak.
The old lady said this three times, slowly released her hands, held up the three chopsticks, and stood up.
Li Laifu saw his grandma pick up three chopsticks, and then said: "Lai Gen, I'm not punishing you to stand. Please stand again so I can know if it's you?"
The old lady did it again with three chopsticks in the water, and sure enough she stood up again.
"I knew it was this wicked guy," the mother-in-law said cursingly.
Li Laifu saw his grandma saying to the three chopsticks: "Lai Gen, the child is still young and can't stand your care. Your family is also very good. Don't worry, just go back quickly, right?"
Old Mrs. Li took three chopsticks and waved them over the child's head three more times, muttering in a low voice. Then she took the three chopsticks and rinsed them in the water twice. Then she poured half a bowl of water at the door and put the big bowl in. Place it on the windowsill, fasten three chopsticks and place them horizontally on the bottom of the bowl.
The old lady said to her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law: "Go back and send him off. Be careful next time and don't let this child go to the ancestral graves again."
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law thanked the old lady and said hello to Li Laifu, then they cursed and walked outside to see the damn husband that the mother-in-law had been scolding.
Li Laifu asked curiously: "Grandma, is this thing really effective?"
