Return to the small mountain village in 1983

In a blink of an eye, it was already the next morning. The sun was shining brightly today, and I could feel that it was exceptionally bright outside just from being in the room.

"It's half past eight, time to get up!"

Lin Heng picked up the watch on the bedside table, took a look at it and said.

Xiulan glanced at him and didn't move. She was too exhausted from all the extreme challenge she had done last night.

This damn guy, he begged for mercy using all kinds of names including her husband, brother, husband and husband, saying he didn't want it anymore.

As a result, he became more and more angry and ignored her completely.

When I finally rested, I changed the sheets and quilt, otherwise it would have been like someone had wet the bed and I wouldn’t have been able to fall asleep.

"Then I'll get up and prepare breakfast." Lin Heng got up and put on his clothes with a smile.

As he got dressed, he glanced at his three children, all of whom were still fast asleep. They had played wildly all day yesterday, and once they fell asleep at night, even thunder could not wake them up.

Lin Heng got up, and Xiulan said, "Get me some clothes from the closet."

"it is good!"

Lin Heng agreed obediently, walked over to take a look, and brought her a set of black underwear, blue trousers, a white shirt, and a brown jacket.

"Is this one ok?" Lin Heng asked with a smile, "I think you look good in anything."

"Give it to me." Xiulan blinked and reached out to take it.

She lifted it up, revealing her curvy white body. Her belly had a normal slight bulge, which looked a little fleshy, but this was normal. A flat and smooth belly was abnormal and not good for the body.

Her legs were very smooth and slender, and her toenails were trimmed short and a normal flesh-pink color.

Under Lin Heng's gaze, Xiulan quickly put on her clothes, walked over and punched Lin Heng lightly in the stomach. He groaned, "Suck it."

Lin Heng grinned and said, "I just like watching it."

It is also a kind of enjoyment to watch a beautiful scenery being hidden little by little, especially when this scenery is an exclusive scenery that is only revealed to you.

Xiulan rolled her eyes at her, loosened her hair, sat in front of the dressing mirror, put on some eyebrow makeup, then tied her hair into a high ponytail, and went out with Lin Heng.

The sun was now shining into the yard. Both of them felt a little tired, but they still insisted on exercising.

Although I was very tired yesterday, the happiness it brought me was unprecedented. It is still necessary to have a good body.

"Go milk the cows and feed the chickens yourself. I don't want to go. I'll go heat up some scallion pancakes." Xiulan said to Lin Heng.

"Okay, I'll do it myself." Lin Heng nodded, took the bucket and crushed corn and went to the back mountain.

By the time he came home with the milk, Xiulan had already heated up the scallion pancakes.

Of course, the one used is an electric baking pan, and the scallion pancakes are made in the freezer.

Lin Heng brought the milk back and easily heated it up by plugging it into the electric cooker.

My home is now fully equipped with electrical appliances, and my sense of happiness in life has increased dramatically. I no longer have to slowly cook a fire to make simple meals.

Of course, it’s the same for Hongfengshan’s parents. He basically buys these small appliances that enhance their sense of happiness for his parents as well.

After he heated the milk and cooked the eggs, Xiulan woke up the children, and the family sat together and happily ate breakfast.

After breakfast, Xiulan looked at Lin Heng and said, "Take out the apples, let's wash them and start cooking."

"Okay." Lin Heng nodded. He took the big iron basin out to the yard, turned on the water pump, and then took out 50 kilograms of apples and poured them into the basin to soak.

Then he went back to the house and took out the bench and dustpan and set them aside to use for drying the apples.

After Xiulan had finished cleaning up the dishes and he had finished his work, the two of them took a stool and sat down to wash the apples together.

"Dad, let me help you!" Xiaoxia ran over, and her two younger brothers also ran over behind her.

"Go and play by yourselves. Don't make trouble. I'll let you eat the apple later." Lin Heng rejected her directly. If he let her come, her clothes would definitely get wet.

"You want to play with cars? The weather is nice today." Xiulan also said.

Her parents didn't allow her to come, so Xiaoxia pouted and turned away.

After washing the apples, they had to peel them and cut them into pieces. While they were peeling and cutting the apples, Xiaoxia came again, bringing her two younger brothers with her. She reached into the dustpan and grabbed the cut apples to eat.

"One is enough for each person. Don't eat more at one time." Xiulan said seriously to the three children.

Xiaoxia looked at Lin Heng, but Lin Heng also stood on Xiulan's side and nodded, "You can't eat too much."

"Oh!" Xiaoxia nodded, took half an apple and left.

Lu Ming and Du Heng also imitated them and took the apple and left. After a while, Lu Ming and Du Heng came over again, stretched out their little hands and took the apple stealthily.

"Did you finish eating so quickly?" Xiulan was a little confused.

Xiaoxia picked up two apples that she had taken a few bites of and came over to complain: "Mom, my brothers took two bites and threw them away."

"You're taking it before you've finished eating it? Who taught you to be so wasteful?" Xiulan's face turned stern, and she questioned the two little ones while holding the apple.

The two of them stood there in a daze, looking at a loss. Lu Ming even looked at Lin Heng for help.

Lin Heng took the apple, washed it with hot water, and handed it back, saying, "Keep eating it. Don't waste it. You will be beaten next time if you can't finish it."

"understood!"

Lu Ming agreed, and Du Heng ran away.

Lin Heng and his friends continued to make dried apples. Peeling and cutting apples took a lot of time, but neither of them felt bored working together. They basked in the autumn sun, made the snacks they wanted to eat, and felt time slipping away.

They hadn't processed many apples when they heard crying in the house. A moment later, Xiaoxia ran out crying and complained: "My brother threw apples around. I washed them for him, but he still made a hole..."

Xiaoxia felt so aggrieved that her little face was all red from crying.

"Don't cry, Dad will give you justice."

After coaxing Xiaoxia, Lin Heng stood up and grabbed the culprit Lin Duheng, and also called Lin Luming.

"Why did you hit your sister?" Lin Heng looked at Lin Duheng and asked patiently.

"She... is annoying!" Lin Duheng rolled his eyes for a while and pointed at his sister. He didn't want to eat it anymore, but she washed it and let him eat it, so he took the apple and hit her on the head.

Lin Heng looked at Lin Luming and asked him what happened again. He confirmed that it was his fault. Xiaoxia washed the apples that fell on the ground for him, and he hit his sister for no reason.

"Then do you think it's right for you not to finish the apple? Did I tell you not to waste it just now?" Lin Heng squatted down and looked at Du Heng and asked again.

Lin Luming was wearing blue clothes, his face was white, and his hands were dirty. Facing Lin Heng's question, he showed no remorse: "Just throw it away!"

Lin Heng grabbed him and slapped him on the butt, saying sternly: "Then let me tell you, your behavior is wrong, and you will be beaten."

“Wow, wow, wow!!”

Lin Heng's slap was so heavy that his son burst into tears. But Lin Heng showed no mercy. It was not good not to beat a child. When he was young, he was ignorant. It was useless to just reason with him. He had to use a stick to make him effective.

"Do you know you are wrong now?" Lin Heng asked again.

"Wow... hit you..." The boy was only one and a half years old, but very tough, and even hit Lin Heng with his backhand.

The result was that he got spanked several more times. He usually didn't hit children, but if he did, he would hit them to the end.

Every time you hit a child, ask him or her if he or she knows he or she is wrong. It is absolutely wrong to hit a child without knowing the reason, but not punishing the child after the mistake is even more unacceptable.

Xiulan was watching Lin Heng beating the child. When Du Heng ran over, she would push him back. Although she felt distressed, she couldn't stop him at this time.

Not to mention that the child is still young, he or she must be educated from an early age so as not to become a naughty child. Xiaoxia was beaten a lot when she was a child.

“Wow, I… I was wrong, Daddy!”

Finally, after being slapped five times on the butt, the little guy gave in and admitted his mistake.

"Don't tell me you were wrong, apologize to your sister and tell her not to waste food next time." Lin Heng wiped his tears and said.

Finally, under Lin Heng's teaching, the little guy took the initiative to come to Xiaoxia and apologize: "Wu Jiejie... I'm sorry! I won't hit you again, and I won't throw food around."

Xiaoxia hugged her brother and coaxed him, "Don't cry, brother. I forgive you. Don't throw things around again. I told you you'd get spanked."

She was not angry when Lin Heng hit her just now, and she even wanted to plead with her brother, but it was useless.

Lin Luming, who was standing next to him, was also terrified when he saw this and was glad that he didn't throw the things away randomly.

Soon the three of them went to play happily, but when they saw Lin Heng's youngest son, he would tell him to walk away and ignore him.

"Let's continue." After beating the child, Lin Heng looked at Xiulan and said with a smile. This kind of thing happens at home at least two or three times a day, if not five or six times.

Children not only have a cute side, they also have a naughty and ignorant side that needs to be guided and educated.

But that's life.

The two of them quickly peeled and cut fifty kilograms of apples into pieces and put them into a winnowing basket to dry.

The first step is to dry them in the sun until they wilt. Don't worry about oxidation and turning yellow. When you steam them, they will all turn into a more beautiful orange-red color.

It was already eleven o'clock when they finished drying the apples, not far from noon. The two returned to the house and made a pot of tea to drink to relieve the fatigue of making things.

The children were playing with their toys on the ground in front of them, but fortunately there was no running around chasing each other.

"What are we having for lunch?" Xiulan finished a cup of tea and asked Lin Heng.

"Rice, let's do that. I'll make it later. You can cook some vegetables after the rice is ready." Lin Heng thought for a while and said, there was nothing else he wanted to eat.

"Then I'll go wash the clothes and sheets first." Xiulan stood up and went into the house to get the dirty clothes and sheets. The quilt that was wet last night had already been taken out to dry.

Lin Heng moved the washing machine out and put the water there, then took the teapot to the yard to drink. Looking at the sky and green mountains outside, he didn't plan to do anything for the next two days, so he just rested at home and waited for news from the factory.

Xiulan threw her clothes into the washing machine and sat over to drink tea. Lin Heng looked at her and said, "Please clean my ears."

Cleaning my ears is just a side job; the real purpose is to lie on my wife's lap and bask in the sun.

"Then go and clean your ears yourself." Xiulan said with a wink.

After Lin Heng took the ear spoon, he could happily lie on Xiulan's soft thighs, close his eyes and bask in the sun.

After lying down for a while and washing the clothes, Xiulan pushed him up to dry the clothes. When she brought the first bucket of clothes over, Lin Heng took the initiative to clean her ears and watched her lie on his legs with her eyes closed to bask in the sun.

After lunch, they took the children to play at Hongfeng Mountain in the afternoon and asked Lin's mother to look after the children. They cleaned up the cabin on the mountain which had hardly been used this year.

"The mountain is the most beautiful in November. Let's come and stay for a few days then." Lin Heng said after cleaning the house.

Although it is already mid-October, the trees have not yet turned yellow or red, so it is not the best time to see the scenery.

"Of course. It's been a long time since I last came here." Lin Heng said with a smile. Because his home is so convenient and it's hard to take care of the children, he hasn't come to stay here this year.

"I can take care of a child for you then." Lin's mother said. It would be too much for two of them to take care of three children in the mountains.

"Thank you, Mom." Xiulan smiled sweetly.

After cleaning the house and drinking a pot of tea, Lin Heng took out two fishing rods, handed one to Xiulan and said, "Let's go fishing in the reservoir."

"Okay." Xiulan agreed happily, and then said, "It seems that we haven't been to the Black River this year. There are a lot of fish over there."

"If we don't have time this year, we'll have to wait until next year," Lin Heng said with a smile.

Xiulan nodded: "I just think the fish are easier to catch over there, it doesn't matter whether I go there or not."

As she spoke, she put an earthworm on a fishhook and threw it into the reservoir. Within two minutes of throwing it in, a fish took the bait. She pulled hard and a one-pound carp was pulled out of the water.

"This plum fish is not small!" Xiulan was immediately happy. She was no longer afraid that the fish would run away from her own reservoir. She slowly slid the fish and enjoyed the wrestling process.

"Dad, I want to play~"

Just as Lin Heng put the earthworm on and was about to fish, his daughter came up to him and grabbed the fishing rod.

"Okay, just be careful." Lin Heng handed him the fishing rod. Now that he was next to him, there was no need to worry about any safety issues.

He went over to help Xiulan catch the fish and raise them first. The two sons brought by Lin's mother also ran over to play fishing, but the one and a half year old babies didn't know how to fish, so they could only watch from the side.

"Dad, help me!"

After a while, Xiaoxia called for help from Lin Heng, as her fishing rod was pulled away.

Lin Heng ran over to steady the fish and was a little shocked when he saw it in the water: "Is this the aura of a novice?"

What Xiaoxia caught was actually a mandarin fish weighing two or three kilograms, but he actually put no more than ten mandarin fish in this small reservoir.

"Wow!"

"Sister is awesome!"

Lu Ming and Du Heng were jumping and clapping nearby, wanting to have a lot of fun.

"Dad, let's eat this big fish for dinner, okay?"

Xiaoxia looked at the big mandarin fish that was caught and said to Lin Heng coquettishly.

"Eat fish, fish!"

"Eat big fish!"

The two children next to them also echoed in unison, they all liked to eat big fish.

"If you want to eat, just eat!" Lin Heng said with a smile.

Next, he took his two sons, who were eager to go fishing, to try fishing and caught two small fish.

Although the younger son was beaten by him in the morning, he no longer cared about it and started to snuggle in his arms coquettishly.

Then he took his children to play nearby and let his mother fish for a while. Fishing can be said to be an outdoor sport suitable for all ages, and it brings a lot of pleasure.

After they played for a while, Lin's father came up and took Xiulan's pole to play with for a while.

Lin Heng took the children to rest under the shade of the tree. When everyone had enough fun, they returned to the cabin. The parents took care of the children for a while while Lin Heng and Xiulan picked the Dendrobium officinale that had grown on the tree for a year. (End of this chapter)
