Splendid peasant girl busy farming

"Oh, it's so smoky and the spicy oil fumes are so heavy. Can Liangliang bear it?" Yang Ruoqing was choked by the overbearing oil fumes as soon as she entered the kitchen.

"Sister Qing'er is here? Liangliang is okay. I usually cook like this and he's used to it." Liu Jinchuan turned her head and glanced at Liangliang behind her, then greeted Yang Ruoqing with a smile.

Yang Ruoqing came to Liangliang and lifted up the small hat that had slipped down to Liangliang's nose, revealing a pair of bright and round little eyes.

"Oh my, I thought you were asleep. Your eyes are so bright, you're so cute!"

She touched the bright little head lovingly. To be honest, the child was well raised by Liu Jinchuan. He was white and plump, and his face was always clean. Now he has baby fat and a double chin!

Liangliang smacked his lips, and his eyes, which had regained their sight, rolled around as he curiously looked at the few extra adults in the kitchen.

Yang Ruoqing really wanted to pick up Liangliang and play with him, but considering that she would have to leave soon and couldn't help hold him all the time, it would take a lot of effort to tie him back to Liu Jinchuan's back, so she gave up the idea.

She stood beside the stove and watched them cook. She couldn't help, so she just chatted with them.

Through chatting, Yang Ruoqing further learned from Liu Jinchuan the specific details of the "separation" of the four houses.

Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt really put aside their past grudges and reconciled completely.

The two reached a consensus that they would live in the old house and live their lives as a couple from now on.

In the first half of their lives, because they all made the same mistakes and caused trouble for each other, there was always a gap between them when living together as a big family.

Now that they are in the second half of their lives, they can no longer continue to waste time and torture each other, so they both hardened their hearts, jumped out, moved back to the old house, returned to their original hearts, found the feeling they had when they first got married, and lived together.

The new house was left to Kang Xiaozi, and a room was reserved for Tiedan before he got married and started a family.

When Tiedan gets married in the future, I will move out and set up my own home.

As for the three daughters, when they return to their parents' home in the future, they will be received directly in the west room of the old house. If Kang Xiaozi and Liu Jinchuan are polite, they can invite the three sisters to the new house for a meal, or arrange a guest room for the nephews to sleep temporarily, all is fine!

In a word, from now on, when the three daughters return to their parents’ home to visit their parents, they should go to the old house.

"Jinchuan and Kang Xiaozi will live a free life from now on. However, there will be no one to help you, so you should be prepared to be more tired."

After listening to the details said by Liu Jinchuan, Yang Ruoqing directly told the following situation, which is that there are pros and cons, but it is probably in line with the thoughts of young couples who want to go solo.

Tired and happy.

After a while, another person rushed into the kitchen. He was wearing a headscarf that farmers' women used to keep the dust off their hair when working.

The difference is that older women use black headscarves, while younger women use blue or colorful headscarves.

In addition, young wives may wear some colorful or festive headscarves on their heads.

But the person who came in at this moment was Cao Bamei. She was already a Ga Po, but because she was only thirty-five or thirty-six years old, she was not too old, so she used a headscarf with a green background and white small flowers.

Not only that, she was wearing coarse working clothes and holding an empty water jar in her arms that was not much smaller than her upper body.

"The jar is empty. I'll come over to get some water. Half a jar will be enough." Cao Bamei started yelling as soon as she entered the kitchen. Liu Jinchuan and Bao Suyun came over to help take the empty jars.

"Second sister-in-law, take a break. I'll fill the water. It just so happens that there's no place to use the hot water on the stove."

Liu Jinchuan said with a smile, while she had already picked up the funnel and inserted it into the mouth of the jar, and with the other hand she picked up the ladle and scooped hot water from the earthenware jar at the front end of the stove near the stove mouth and poured it into the jar continuously.

During this process, Cao Bamei wiped the sweat from her face and talked to everyone including Yang Ruoqing about the progress at the old house.

"The three rooms in the old house have been basically emptied. Fourth uncle said that he doesn't want the furniture in those rooms anymore."

"A lot of the furniture was discarded when we moved into the new house. It's been almost a year now, and those things are all over the place, and have been exposed to rain and gnawed by rats. There's no way to repair them. I might as well take this opportunity to renovate the house and build a new set of furniture."

"When the time comes, he and Kang will go to the mountains to cut down trees and the masonry and carpentry will be provided by their families. It won't cost much if you calculate it all!"

Sun and Bao Suyun both nodded as they listened. Sun said, "It's time to build a new one. The old one is really useless. The stools are all crooked and broken, and the bed is unsuitable for sleeping."

Bao Suyun said: "The three brothers of the Li family have taken up all the masonry work. We are not short of carpenters here. If you are short of laborers, our Yang family has plenty of people. Let's lend a hand."

Cao Bamei smiled and said, "That's what the guys said. Yongqing said that as long as his uncle is willing to give everyone a good meal, he will come and help out when he has time."

Liu Jinchuan, the head of the household, straightened up and said to Cao Bamei with a smile, "My father-in-law and Kang Xiaozi have said that if you guys can take time out of your busy schedule to come and help, we will definitely provide you with enough food!"

The women were chatting and laughing in the kitchen. Cao Bamei rested for a while and prepared to go back to the old house with a pot of hot water to do some work. Xiu Xiu poked her head out from outside the kitchen.

"Mom, please go over there in a moment and look after Yongxiao. I need to take Xiao Sanzi home to use the toilet."

Although Xiao Sanzi is Yongxiao's uncle, and the generation relationship is real, you must not be misled by this title of uncle and think that Xiao Sanzi is a very mature young man.

At best, the third child was only a six-year-old child. In later times, he would be in the transition period from kindergarten to elementary school. And because he was a boy, he was in a naughty stage and needed someone to keep an eye on him.

Cao Bamei responded, looking out into the yard, passing over Luo Baobao and Linglan, "Xiu Xiu, where is your sister Xiuhong? Why didn't that girl come over?"

Usually, Xiuhong follows Xiao Sanzi and Yongxiao, as more people mean more eyes.

Xiu Xiu said: "Mom, have you forgotten? During breakfast today, Xiu Hong said she didn't want to eat and stayed in bed to sleep!"

"I used to bring her a bowl of rice at lunchtime, but now that dinner is about to start cooking, I'm afraid she's still staying in bed!"

"What? That girl stayed in bed all day? How can she be so lazy!" When Cao Bamei heard what Xiuxiu said, she was furious. She put down the water jar and said to Xiuxiu, "You stay and look after Yongxiao. I'll take Xiao Sanzi back to the toilet and urge your sister to get up!"

Xiuxiu glanced at the water pitcher and was a little embarrassed: "No, everyone in the old house is still waiting for water..."

Cao Bamei was also a little troubled, but since Xiuhong had slept for the whole day, she was a little worried, fearing that she might be sick or something.

The other people in the kitchen were also worried because Xiuhong was usually a hardworking child!

Yang Ruoqing stepped forward and said, "Second sister-in-law, go and see Xiuhong. I also want to go to the old house and take a look. I can take the water jar with me." (End of this chapter)
