Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Children's attention is indeed the easiest to divert. Look, they were in a bad mood and unhappy during breakfast because of the cancellation of the New Year's greeting plan.

After breakfast, the children became happy again when they heard that they had gone to Mr. Sun's house to eat roasted goose in an iron pot in the morning.

He put down his bowl and chopsticks and ran out, calling Fuwa, Xiao Sanzi and others, and they all went into the Sun family's yard.

Together with Xiao Shunzi and a few children of similar age from Huangmao's mother's family, they surrounded the big goose with its feet tied in the backyard and looked at it.

The big goose cackled, and when it raised its neck it was taller than them. It waved its nearly one-meter-long wings as if it was going to chase them, scaring them so much that they retreated screaming.

The scene was really exciting and fun with screams coming one after another.

And the same drama continued to play out between them and the goose, until Da Sun came over with a knife and prepared to kill the goose.

"Don't kill the geese, they are so pitiful!"

"Yes, let it play with us!"

"I don't want to eat the goose. It's our good friend."

"..."

Da Sun glanced at the group of little kids beside her legs and couldn't help laughing.

"Look at you guys, don't lose your chopsticks when you eat the delicious goose meat later!"

The final fate of the big goose is definitely to fall into the big iron pot.

The children were very angry at first, and they pouted their lips to condemn Mrs. Sun.

As a result, when the fire in the stove was heated up, and the aroma of goose meat wafted out from the kitchen with the blessing of onions, ginger, garlic and chili peppers, the children's sad tears flowed from the corners of their mouths. They ran to the kitchen one by one, rummaged around the stove, and scrambled to ask Da Sun: "When will the goose meat be ready?"

"When do we have dinner?"

"It smells so good. I'm so hungry..."

"..."

  Da Sun laughed out loud, you little brats, you are all greedy cats!

It’s a pity that you were following me and condemning me before, huh!

In the main hall, the third room, Da Niu's family, the Luo family, and the second room were all present.

Everyone gathered together, the men sat around the table drinking tea and chatting, while the women sat on the benches against the wall drinking tea and eating melon seeds, or sitting in the fire barrel warming themselves and listening to everyone's gossip.

Yang Yongjin looked around and found that Da'an was not there, so he asked Yang Ruoqing.

When Yang Ruoqing answered, Yang Yongjin smiled and said, "In this weather, we shouldn't go far to pay New Year's greetings. It's still okay to walk around the village."

Leaving the village is an unwise choice.

"However, Fourth Uncle and his entire family ignored my advice and went to Lijia Village to pay New Year's greetings."

"Ah? Have you taken all the children over there?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

Yang Yongjin nodded.

"Fourth uncle and Kang Xiaozi wanted to go but Fourth aunt was anxious to go. She said that today was the day agreed before the New Year for the children to visit their eldest aunt and it couldn't be changed. Fourth uncle and Kang Xiaozi had no choice but to get a carriage to go."

Yang Yongjin's words not only reached Yang Ruoqing's ears, but also reached Yang Huazhong's ears at the table.

Yang Huazhong shook his head after hearing this, "I hope the rain won't come until after noon, otherwise, it will be troublesome all the way back."

As a result, Yang Huazhong's hope was soon shattered because it started to drizzle outside again.

"Oh my god, Dad, did Daan bring an umbrella?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

"It seems that I brought it."

"Well, then I won't pick him up."

Soon, Daan came back from outside, holding an umbrella in his hand, shaking off the rain and leaning against the outer wall of the main hall. "Dad, I said hello to Duo'er."

"That's good. Now we can all feel at ease."

"Da'an, come to the fire barrel and dry off the moisture on your body." Yang Ruoqing waved at Da'an.

"okay."

Daan came to the fire barrel, bent down and put his arm in to warm it.

"This rain comes at a good time. Spring rain is as precious as oil. I passed by the river dam before and saw that the water in the river had dried up. It's a good thing to have two rains," said Da'an.

Yang Ruoqing nodded: "Indeed, the water level of the reservoir in Zhengjia Village upstream has also dropped a lot. In the spring farming season, a large area downstream needs a huge amount of water. It is very good to have two rains at this time."

"However, if the rain gets heavier, it might be troublesome for Fourth Uncle and the others to come back, hehe..."

"Did they go to visit relatives?"

"Well, I went to He'er's house to pay New Year's greetings. They said that the eldest grandson was coming to visit, so the date couldn't be changed."

amount……

Daan was speechless.

It takes time to roast the goose in an iron pot. Everyone was chatting in the main room. Then someone suggested that another eight-person table be cleared out. Yang Yongjin and Huangmao's brothers from her mother's family all gathered together to play cards.

A circle of people stood nearby to watch the fun.

Daan and Dajie definitely don't play cards. They are both academic talents. When they get together, they mainly talk about academics, officialdom, court policies, etc...

The endless aroma from the kitchen drifted into the main room. Even though it was raining outside, it could not cover up the domineering and brutal taste of the goose meat.

  In the main room, everyone was becoming more and more unable to resist the aroma. Even those playing cards began to become distracted, let alone others.

"Can anyone go to the kitchen and ask when dinner is ready? We are so hungry!"

"I'll ask myself!"

After a while, the person who was sent to inquire ran back to the main room excitedly in the rain.

"I have good news for you. Dinner will be served soon!"

"Hurry up, finish this round and clean up the table."

A ten-pound goose was roasted in an iron pot. Da Sun also made a ground pot pancake. The goose was divided into two small iron pots and brought to two tables respectively. There were also other side dishes around it.

Old Sun opened a jar of liquor, and Xiaojie's father opened a jar of glutinous rice wine. There were seats for both adults and children.

The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, and everyone in the house was eating steaming hot meals, the atmosphere was completely perfect!

By the time everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, the children had left their bowls and chopsticks to play in the next room. At this time, the rain outside was getting heavier, from the previous drizzle to a heavy rainstorm.

It was windy and rainy, and no one was in a hurry to go home. After all, they were all in the same village, and it was only a few steps away. It wouldn't hurt to wait until the rain was lighter before leaving.

So, the dishes and chopsticks on the table were taken away, and the younger men like Yang Yongjin started playing cards again.

Tuantuan, Yuanyuan and Fuwa Juner all have the habit of taking a nap in the afternoon. Xingwang, Ping'an, Linglan and Shaoyao came over holding big umbrellas.

Xingwang carried Tuantuan, Linglan held an umbrella beside him, Pingan carried Yuanyuan, Shaoyao held an umbrella...

Wang Cuilian also followed behind and went back together.

As for Jun'er and Fuwa, they didn't want to go back, so they went to take a nap with Xiao Shunzi...

Everyone continued to play cards and chat, but one person seemed a little absent-minded. He stared at the rain outside from time to time, his brows furrowed. (End of this chapter)
