Pastoral elegance: the shocking little peasant girl

Chapter 218

In the quiet dawn, under the crowing of the rooster, all the silence burst like bubbles...

In the sky above Gujia Village, a curl of cooking smoke rose, and then diffused lazily in the air, like countless pilgrims reverently welcoming the coming of gods and Buddhas.

And the morning sun is like a mysterious fairy with drowsy eyes in tulle, dense in a vast mist, and when it finally breaks free from the sea of ​​clouds and bursts out, it is very happy to spread ten thousand rays of light to the earth. .

At this time, Qian Xiaodou had already sent the stone to Xie Lichun's home, and then came back with a new one on his back. Tian Xiaohe shook his head helplessly seeing his younger brother working so hard, and watched the cheap mother and grandma accept the money. Donkey Douzi, who came back, turned around and went back to the house, set down the table and bowls, and prepared to have breakfast.

The breakfast was the same as yesterday, it wasn't because Tian Xiaohe didn't want to improve, but because of her psychological troubles, she lost her appetite when she saw Gu's on the table, but, for the sake of her brother and sister, she still added some more oil and water, and cooked it for two hours. eggs.

When it comes to eating, Tian Xiaohe has always adhered to the principle of not talking when eating and being careful not to choke. Even Xiaodou and Mai also followed suit and ate in silence.

To be honest, such a dining table made her feel very depressed, but such eating etiquette would not provoke Tian's non-stop nagging like a nun chanting scriptures.

"Mother, have you finished harvesting the beans?" Tian Xiaohe asked after finishing eating and putting away the bowls and chopsticks.

She knew that the soybeans were not picked directly after they were harvested, and they had to wait until they were dry before going down to thresh them. As for the work to be done today, it would be much better for Tian, ​​a farm woman, to arrange it than a layman like her.

"Well, let it dry for two days, and then use a stone roller to press it, and there will be beans." Tian took a sip of water, glanced at the donkey beans that he took back, and continued, "Young Master Yuwen didn't say how much you want. Mother thinks it’s better not to make all spiced beans first.”

Tian knew about the spiced beans last night, but she felt that before the price was negotiated, if they made so many spiced beans, if the other party didn't want them, their family would not be able to eat that much, and they would probably go bad after a long time .

"It's not that, I'm thinking, we only have four houses in our house, should we dig a cellar and put some important things away, so that we won't be able to look at things if some people have too many hands."

Tian Xiaohe just doesn't have that sense of security, especially what happened at Aunt Wang's house last time. She feels that the uncle's family is unreliable. It is better to hide some necessary things, so as not to make others jealous and cause innocent troubles .

Thinking about it now, she felt that she had been a bit in the limelight these days. Almost everyone in the village or the town knew about the existence of her and Journey to the West.

Tian didn't speak immediately, but rubbed the bottom of the bowl with the hand holding the bowl, and thought for a long time before responding: "The cellar for storing things is not so easy to dig, we need to find someone to help with it, let's wait a few days , after the village finishes harvesting the land, I will let you, Uncle Gu, come over."

"What about today?" Tian Xiaohe is right to think about it, or buy some green bricks at that time, and even build up the courtyard wall, so as to prevent the thorns planted from being caught in the fire, which would be dangerous.

"Today we need to turn over the open land, so that we can grow food when the rain comes." Tian looked at her strangely and asked, "Aren't you going up the mountain? Why are you asking about this?"
