Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 3350 I miss my dad
When school was over in the evening, Luo Baobao saw that Yang Ruoqing had come to pick her up and Dazhi by herself at the gate of the school, even though Luo Fengtang had told her yesterday that his father was going to an expedition.

But there was still some disappointment in the little girl's eyes.

On the way home holding Yang Ruoqing's hand, the little girl kicked stones with her head sullen.

"Why are you so unhappy? Did you quarrel with your little classmates in school?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

Luo Baobao shook his head, "No one dares to quarrel with me, and they can't quarrel with me."

Yang Ruoqing was ashamed, this girl said...

"What's the matter? Why didn't you talk?" Yang Ruoqing asked again.

When I usually came to pick her up from school, I was so excited, like a little fish jumped into the sea, and a little bird returned to the woods, so happy.

And every time on the way home from school, when Yang Ruoqing asked her if the husband had assigned homework this time, the little girl would chatter about what was assigned.

Then he flattered Yang Ruoqing again, saying, "Mom, I'll rest for a while when I get home, paint for a while, and then do my homework, okay?" '

Almost every time I go down the mountain and go home, I am bargaining.

But this time, let alone haggling, I don't like to talk.

"Dazhi, what's wrong with your sister? Do you know?" Yang Ruoqing turned to ask about Dazhi.

Dazhi turned his head to look at Luo Baobao, then shook his head at Yang Ruoqing.

Yang Ruoqing had no choice but to turn her gaze back to Luo Baobao, "Baby..."

"Mother, I miss my father." Luo Baobao suddenly said in a muffled voice, as if he was about to cry.

Yang Ruoqing was stunned for a moment, then smiled and patted her head.

"Your father led the army to go out, and he will come back when the war is over," she said.

Luo Baobao raised his head and looked at Yang Ruoqing: "Mother, why can't my father stay at home every day like other fathers? I see that many children's fathers go to the entrance of the village to play leaf cards after dinner. I only called back when I was eating..."

Yang Ruoqing couldn't help laughing at this childish speech.

"Your father is doing great things. He is the great general who protects the country. He commanded thousands of troops and was a great hero who defended the country." She said.

"Without your father to protect our home and our country, foreign enemies would come to us and make us never have a peaceful day. They would tear down our school, smash our cooking pots, and rob us of our food and money."

"We can't let them take Xiao Bai and Xiao Hui away, they are mine..."

Luo Baobao cried out nervously.

Xiaobai and Xiaohui are a pair of rabbits. Blacksmith Luo caught them from the mountains a few months ago and gave them to the two children to play with. They put them in an iron cage.

Baobao and Dazhi went to see the two little rabbits every day and fed them vegetables and leaves. A few months later, the pair of rabbits who used to be as big as fists have now grown several times in size, and the original iron cage can no longer hold them.

"It is precisely because of a hero like your father who leads soldiers to fight outside and beats the enemy away that we can live a stable life, and Xiaobai Xiaohui can grow up so well." Yang Ruoqing continued.

"So, when your father is not at home, you should study hard and eat more. When your father comes back after winning the battle and sees my baby grow into a big girl, your father will be very happy!"

Hearing Yang Ruoqing's words, Luo Baobao stopped and puffed up his chest.

"I want to eat a lot of food and grow up quickly. When I grow up, I want to be a female general like my father. I want to beat the enemy. I want to beat the shit out of the enemy!"

Yang Ruoqing was surprised by her childish words.

Looking at the heroic spirit between the girl's brows and the bright eyes, Yang Ruoqing suddenly thought of a word.

The tiger father has no dogs, even if it is a daughter, but Luo Fengtang's blood is flowing in her body, she is destined to be a different child in the future!

……

The end of the new year is approaching, but the atmosphere of the New Year in the village is not as good as in previous years.

Why?

Because this year is a famine year.

When the rice was filling in April and May, locusts ravaged. When the harvest was supposed to be harvested in autumn, there was indeed no harvest in the fields, which dragged the livelihood of farmers to the bottom.

Fortunately among the misfortunes, the emperor "resurrected from the dead" and issued a policy of benefiting the people, exempting the area from taxes for two years.

In winter, radishes are harvested in abundance.

So, dry radish, water radish, sour radish, steamed radish, fried radish...

Most people eat radishes almost twice a day, and even the farts they emit smell like radishes.

People of the older generation say that this will be the most barren New Year's Eve in nearly 30 years.

Those people in the next village can only eat boiled radishes in white water during the Chinese New Year, or they can borrow some meat on credit to burn together with radishes for the children's tooth-beating sacrifice.

But the situation in Changping Village is a little better.

Compared with the whole village, those who are slightly better are also a minority, and they are limited to the homes of those members of the herbal collection team and transportation team.

Why do you say that?
Because they had a good owner, Yang Ruoqing sent big red envelopes of three taels of silver to each of their families on the morning of the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month.

The imperial court ordered that hoarding of goods is not allowed. In order to prevent the common people from having troubles due to lack of food, the imperial court approved the prices.

Moreover, according to reliable sources, the imperial government's disaster relief food had already arrived in Changhuai Prefecture, and it was estimated that it would reach Qingshui Town a year ago.

The big guys all saw hope, and all of them put in all their energy and waited for the relief food to be allocated to celebrate the New Year.

As for Yang Huazhong's family, although they were rich and didn't need to wait for any disaster relief food at all, they didn't have any New Year atmosphere at all.

Why?

Because Xiao An went to join the army unexpectedly, Mrs. Sun looked at Xiao An's empty house, shed tears every day, and didn't think about eating or drinking.

Only two or three days later, he fell ill.

Yang Ruoqing hurriedly invited Uncle Fu to come over. Sun's health is fine, but to put it bluntly, she is overwhelmed with worry.

Uncle Fu prescribed medicine, so he could only let the family recuperate slowly, try to talk to Mrs. Sun as much as possible, enlighten and clear up the knot.

In the morning, Yang Ruoqing brought a bowl of bird's nest porridge with rock sugar to her mother's house to visit Sun Shi who was ill. Both Da Sun Shi and Bao Suyun talked with Sun Shi in this room.

No matter what comforting words the two of them said, there was always a trace of melancholy on Sun's brows.

Seeing Yang Ruoqing coming in, Dasun's eyes lit up, "Qing'er is here, come and talk to your mother, your mother is thinking about Daan and Xiaoan brothers again."

Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips, came to the bed and sat down.

Sun hurriedly forced a smile on her face, "It's nothing, it's just that, I just mentioned a few words..."

Yang Ruoqing kept her face down on purpose, and said: "Mother, Uncle Fu has already said, you have to relax, otherwise, you will always make the fake illness into a real illness."

"It's New Year's Eve, do you want us to worry about you day and night, so we don't have any intention of preparing for the New Year?" She asked coquettishly on purpose.

Sun smiled, "Okay, I'll listen to Qing'er, I'm relieved."

Yang Ruoqing took out the bowl in the basket, "Since that's the case, mother, you can eat this bowl of bird's nest porridge with rock sugar while it's hot. Look at you, you've lost a lot of weight in the past two days. If Da'an and Xiao'an know about it, everyone will have to eat it." Distressed."
