Liu Baogen laughed loudly when he saw their appearance, he was very proud, pointed at him and called him a thief, and ate in front of them with a bowl in his hands.
He is not a thief. He and his sister work hard to dig out worms for the chickens at home every day. But if he eats an egg, he will be called a thief.
His sister protected him and was beaten by his grandmother. He was covered in bruises and couldn't get out of bed for three days. From then on, he didn't dare to think about it anymore, let alone take another look at the egg custard.
But now he can eat delicious egg custard every day, eat delicacies he has never tasted before, wear new clothes that Liu Baogen doesn't have, and he also has to practice martial arts and study. All these are given to him by his aunt.
After dinner, Xiao Ming taught Wang Yunling how to write, and the first thing she wrote was her name.
"Yunling, look, this is your name." Xiao Ming pointed Wang Yunling's name on the paper and pointed it to her, "I will teach you a few words every day. You should remember them in your heart. First practice them on the ground with branches. Get familiar with them. Then write it on paper."
Wang Yunling was very excited and wrote down her name carefully.
"Tiandong, I will teach you how to write your name." Xiao Yu volunteered and took Wang Tiandong to teach him how to read. He became a young master and taught him well. Mrs. Song sat next to him and looked at the few people lovingly.
Xiao Han took Maomao into the house, and he and Xia Xiaoba took Maomao for a tour of the orchard.
"Brother Xia has gone back?" Xiao Ming couldn't help but ask when she didn't see Xia Xiaoba enter the house.
"Go back." Xiao Han nodded. Now Xia Xiaoba no longer lives in their house. He goes back to Xia's house every day after dinner. Sometimes he goes back without dinner. Fortunately, the two sides are close, less than a quarter of an hour later. almost there.
After a busy afternoon this afternoon, everyone was tired. After chatting for a few words about home affairs, they went to wash up and rest.
Xiao Han and Xiao Yu got up to practice martial arts at midnight. Before Xia Xiaoba came over, the two of them practiced Xia Xiaoba's new boxing skills. After this period of diligent practice, their bodies became stronger due to martial arts training. , the height has also grown a lot.
The new person who joined the martial arts training today is the kid Wang Tiandong. His thin body is doing the horse steps meticulously. Although his body keeps shaking, his legs are shaking, and there are beads of sweat dripping from his forehead, he grits his teeth and persists, working hard. Saburo.
When Xiao Ming got up, they had been practicing for half an hour. Xiao Ming looked at Wang Tiandong and shook his head. He did not stop him. It was also his own choice. She would not stop him. She glanced at the three people who were practicing martial arts seriously and then left. The kitchen helped Mrs. Song make breakfast.
In the kitchen, Madam Song and Wang Yunling had already made breakfast. Seeing Xiao Ming come in, Madam Song asked with concern: "You got up so early, why don't you sleep more."
Xiao Ming~~
No place to be ashamed of.
It seems that she got up the latest, Xiao Yu got up earlier than her.
"Godmother, what do you want to eat in the morning?" Xiao Ming asked.
"I'll cook a pot of porridge, bake some pancakes, and stir-fry two side dishes." As Song Niang spoke, her hands kept working, and she quickly pressed the kneaded dough into round pancakes and threw them in. Put a little oil in the pot, and then ordered Wang Yunling to light the fire: "Yunling, please lower the fire, I will start making pancakes."
"Why."
Seeing that there were uncut vegetables on the cutting board, Xiao Ming was about to cut the vegetables with a knife, but Mrs. Song stopped her, saying, "Don't cut, hurt your hands carefully. You can go to sleep for a while, and dinner will be served soon."
"It's okay, godmother, I can do it." Xiao Ming said.
"Hey, listen to Godmother, children don't play with knives." Mrs. Song pushed Xiao Ming out of the kitchen with the back of her hand and asked her to go back to the house to rest.
Ever since she was at home, she had done all the work in the kitchen herself, and the others at most helped to light the fire. She was strictly forbidden to touch the knife when cutting vegetables. Neither Xiao Ming nor Wang Yunling had ever held a kitchen knife.
Xiao Ming was kicked out of the kitchen and was speechless for a while. She knew how to use a knife, but her godmother always treated her like a child.
While preparing breakfast, Xiao Ming went to the vegetable field to pick vegetables. She was going to pick out the vegetables that Kong Lin needed every day. She couldn't finish picking two carts of vegetables each day. Every day, after breakfast, Xia Xiaoba and Xiao Han helped everyone pick vegetables before going to the town to study.
The picked vegetables only need to be placed on the ridge of the field, and the people sent by Kong Lin will automatically load them into trucks and transport them away. Fortunately, Xiao Ming had the foresight to build the roads at that time, so they were wide enough for carriages to pass, and all roads could lead directly to the fields. , and also paved with leftover stones from building houses, so that it can be accessed even on rainy days.
The vegetables in the three plots of land are growing well. Even though two carts of vegetables are supplied every day, and the Xia family comes to pick several loads of vegetables every day, the Xiao family still can't finish them all.
After the meal, Xiao Han and Xia Xiaoba helped pick out the vegetables and put them away before taking Wang Tiandong to the town.
After seeing Xiao Han off, Xiao Ming took a look at the sky. The sun just showed up, almost around seven o'clock.
Villagers rushed to Xia's house one after another, and Liu Lin and the other three also went to Xiao's house to help along with their parents who were repairing a house in Xia's house.
"Good morning, haven't you eaten yet?" Xiao Mingcai sent Xiao Han away and looked at Liu Lin and the other two people coming towards them in surprise, and hurriedly said hello.
"I've eaten at home. It's getting early now. It's cool to get up early and work." Liu Linxiao explained that her mother urged her to get up before dawn at home.
"Yes! If you come to work earlier, you can do more." Liu Yu is as down-to-earth as her mother-in-law Wang.
The three of them have not come to play with Xiao Ming since the last time they picked fruit. Sometimes when Xiao Ming goes to town, they meet and say hello.
Now that the three of them came to see Xiao Ming, they were much more cordial and natural than before. It seemed that they had a lot to say. Liu Yu pulled Xiao Ming and asked questions, talking about interesting things they had not seen each other these days. Xiao Ming I didn’t feel irritated either, I smiled and listened.
"Come on, let's go to the fields and chat while working." Liu Xiaofang said, which made Liu Yu very talkative. She could talk all day without stopping, so she took the lead to the orchard with the basket in hand without any explanation.
"Wow, it's so beautiful." Liu Lin was surprised by the blooming chrysanthemums in front of her eyes. She felt like she was in a sea of flowers, fragrant and beautiful.
"Yes, these chrysanthemums are blooming really well." Liu Yu said, and Liu Xiaofang here also nodded, looking at this sea of flowers with full affection.
"Haha." Xiao Ming smiled. They watched it every day and had long been numb to the beautiful scenery in front of them.
Although the three of them were sighing and surprised, their reason was still there. The purpose of coming here tomorrow and today was that their mother had told them to work hard, do more and talk less.
But she is a young girl after all, about the same age as Xiao Ming. At this moment, she forgets all her mother's instructions and starts talking. However, apart from the interesting things that happened in the village, the little girl's topic is about her appearance. Come.
"Sister Ming, you don't know. I met Aunt Liu on the road yesterday. She was scolding you even as she walked on the road." Liu Lin said. She didn't know what happened to the Xiao family yesterday. She only met an angry woman on the road. Mrs. Liu rushed home, only to find it strange that she ignored her greetings and passed her by cursing.
When her parents came home in the evening, they found out that she had gone to Xiao's house to ask for money.
"This person is really bad." Liu Yu said. Her impression of Mrs. Liu has always been about the hen that laid eggs. At that time, her grandmother was in poor health and the family had no money, so she relied on a few hens at home. She laid eggs to replenish her body, but Mrs. Liu forcibly took one away, which made her mother cry angrily.
