In the little girl's world, dowry is a very high-end thing, something that girls must prepare. Although she doesn't know what it is used for, it is precisely because of this sustenance that she will not spend it randomly. money.

It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

Because of Xu San's intervention, the little girl's originally ordinary life became rich and colorful, and the corresponding material life was much better than that of ordinary people.

As for Xu San, she has always been worried that her excessive doting on the little girl will turn her into a sickly little princess. But now it seems that the little girl is very independent, does not have princess disease, and things are not going in a bad direction.

The little girl in my arms is still the same cute little girl.

He rummaged through his pocket, took out a few pieces and put them into the little girl's hands, "By the way, who sold the colored pencils in the store to them?"

"Hmm~" The little girl bit her lip and thought for a while before frowning and saying, "Sold to an old man. He looks scary. He doesn't look like a good person at first glance."

Xu San had never met Li Yunlong, and he thought he should be a man with a mighty appearance and a bit of a ruffian spirit. Unexpectedly, the little girl turned out to have such an evaluation of Li Yunlong.

Children don't lie.

So Xu San felt that Li Yunlong should have the kind of fierce-looking appearance.

Thinking that Chu Yunfei had also bought something, he continued to ask, "And who sold that five-yuan bear?"

"A good-looking uncle, I chose the bear for him. He said he has a daughter at home." This time the little girl answered quickly.

Hey, although I don’t know what Lao Li looks like, but now I know through the little girl that Lao Li has lost to Chu Tuanzuo in terms of appearance.

"Didn't he choose it himself?" Xu San was a little regretful that Chu Yunfei's buying of bears was not his own special hobby.

"I chose it. He gave me five dollars and asked me to help him choose something."

"Five dollars, what to choose?" Xu San was a little confused by the little girl's words, "Please tell me in detail."

Several days had passed since the incident, and the little girl could only furrow her cute little eyebrows as she recalled it carefully, and then recounted the events of the day like a parrot.

Although the words were a bit confusing, Xu San could still understand roughly what was going on.

After listening, Xu San realized that the two people actually met in this way.

This is much earlier than the time line when the two of them killed the Japanese in Qingyuan County.

In the original work, the two were both enemies and friends. They were both heroic generals during the Anti-Japanese War and had collaborated many times. Although they were life-and-death enemies in the end, they had always been good friends who cherished each other during the Anti-Japanese War.

Helping the New Second Regiment to break out of the encirclement at Yawuwu this time was the result of the two people's joint efforts.

I asked a little more about the two people, but the little girl was still a child. She could only tell that Chu Yunfei was prettier than Li Yunlong. As for the other things, the little girl couldn't tell at all.

Hey, girls really only care about looks.

I didn’t ask any more questions. Children’s expressive abilities are limited. I put it down and started playing hopscotch with the little girl.

Life is not just about fighting and scheming, but also about spending more time with your children.

Ma Cuilan heard the movement in the yard, walked out, and saw Xu San, "Brother, are you back? Have you eaten?"

….

"I haven't eaten yet!" Xu San replied with a smile. Xu San didn't care about Ma Cuilan at all.

"If you haven't eaten yet, just wait while I roll out the noodles."

"What braised food?" the little girl asked with saliva.

"Chives and eggs!" Ma Cuilan said and turned to cook.

Seeing Ma Cuilan leaving, Xu San felt very complicated. He wanted to change his habit of climbing over the wall when he got home, and wanted to truly become a family with his neighbor.

However, he didn't dare because he had too many worries.

"Let's go, follow me to pick leeks." The little girl's words pulled Xu San out of his thoughts.

"Okay!" Xu San agreed and followed the little girl into the house.

Ma Cuilan was very virtuous and sensible. He never asked Xu San what he was doing when he went out.

Because he knew that Xu San was a good person, a good person in the true sense of the word, without any irony.

Squatting on the ground, he and the little girl tied up the leeks together, pinched off the roots, and then put them into a basket.

The weather in summer was hot and there were a lot of rotten leeks, so when picking vegetables, Xu San threw away some more. The little girl looked at the leeks that Xu San had thrown away and pouted, "Uncle, you are so wasteful. , why did you throw away such a good dish?"

"Uh..." Xu San glanced at the rotten vegetables he threw away, "It's rotten!"

"You can eat it even if it's rotten. What a waste if you throw it away! Don't you know it's not easy to make money?" The little girl said in a preaching tone, learning in a decent way.

"But eating bad food can easily lead to diarrhea." Xu San retorted.

"That shouldn't be wasted!" The little girl still accepted death and thought Xu San was wasted.

Xu San was quite happy because the little girl still maintained her habit of being diligent and thrifty.

But children can't always choke, so Xu San thought for a moment and said, "Let's put all the rotten vegetables together and bury them in the ground to make fertilizer, so that the vegetables will grow and taste better. "

"Really? What is that fertilizer?"

"Fertilizer is the nutrition that vegetables need, just like we humans need to eat meat."

The little girl blinked her eyes, feeling confused and confused.

Ma Cuilan turned around and looked at the two men squatting on the ground, and smiled knowingly, "Listen to your Uncle Xu."

"Okay!" The little girl agreed and continued to pick vegetables, but this time, he also followed Xu San's example and picked off more rotten parts.

There wasn't much food for the three of us, and we were making simple food like noodles, so it was ready quickly.

But to be honest, Xu San thinks vegetables are really good in this era.

Not to mention it’s all natural, it just tastes so authentic!

Today's leeks are very fragrant. When stir-fried lightly, the fragrance spreads everywhere. Xu San probably can smell it even in his own yard.

After the little girl ate a large bowl, Ma Cuilan stopped letting her eat and sent her to play in the yard.

Without the chattering little girl, Ma Cuilan poured Xu San a glass of wine, "Brother, do you still remember Chu Lian? He's my fellow countryman."

"Remember, I also took care of his business?" Xu San took a sip of wine and said slowly. He was thinking about why Ma Cuilan said this today. After thinking about it, he suddenly had an idea: "Counting the days, she should be born. Alright? Should we join in?"

"You can do whatever you want. There's still half a month to go." Ma Cuilan said casually, but judging from her tone, that wasn't what she wanted to say.

"What's wrong, sister-in-law? Could it be that something happened to her family again?"

"Hey~" Ma Cuilan sighed softly, with a slight blush on her face, as if the words below were difficult to say.
