After eating, the boys will go back to the academy soon, and they are all reluctant to leave.
Especially when Brother Cat hugged Fat Sister, his face turned red from exhaustion and he didn't let go.
It was Mrs. Li who spoke up and said: "Go to study when you should. We are staying for ten and a half months this time, so we are not afraid of not seeing each other.
"Besides, we are very busy at home, so hurry up and get ready to open the canteen. You guys will be in the canteen at noon. Eat, and you'll have two hours free in the evening. Not to mention playing at home for a while, just sleeping is enough.
"Seriously? " That's great, you can kick enough football! "Brother Cat was immediately happy, put his sister down and ran away.
The academy had already rung the bell. If you don't get there, you will be punished.
The other boys also waved to grandma, and then chased Brother Cat. .
Jiaren was more cautious and kept behind him, calling his brothers to watch the road from time to time and not to hit anyone.
Jiayin stood in the middle of the ground, blinked his big eyes twice, and was still a little confused. He wanted to speak but let out a big yawn.
Just after eating After being full, my brother took a nap in his arms. He was drowsy, but why was he suddenly left behind...
Old Mrs. Li was amused by her granddaughter, so she quickly took her back to the house to take a nap.
After her granddaughter fell asleep, Old Mrs. Li He told Shuiling to guard him, and then he took Grandma He and called Li Laosan and Wu Laojiu's family to go to the vegetable field for a walk.
Tao Hongying had nothing to do and followed Zhao Yuru to the college cafeteria
. Of course Zhu and his wife Sun Ersao also followed.
The thirty acres of land that Li Laosan bought was just to the west of the town, and he happened to pass by it when he came from Kyoto.
It can be said that the location is quite good, in front of the fields It is well taken care of and very fertile.
There is a small village next to the field, with more than thirty households. Looking at the houses from a distance, most of them are thatched and adobe, and they are not particularly wealthy. The
two vegetable growers hired by Li Laosan before The handyman is a villager here.
At this moment, he felt a little regretful, helped my mother and said: "Mom, I didn't think carefully when I bought the land, and the neighbors here are not good. Mrs.
Li patted her son and said with a smile: "It's the same everywhere, there are good people and bad people." Moreover, he is a bad person, but he is just lazy and taking advantage. He is not a treacherous person.
"Don't be discouraged. Since it has happened, let's find a way to solve it. There is no use in blaming ourselves."
Li Laosan felt more and more guilty. It was really unfilial to ask my mother to persuade and bother me at this age.
Mrs. Li called Grandma He, took some melon seeds and peanuts in the car, and then led her son to the entrance of the village.
It was now afternoon, and everyone who should go out to work had already gone out, leaving only some old people and children in the village.
Mrs. Li was dressed neatly, but the material was ordinary cotton, and there was only a silver hairpin inserted into the bun on the back of her head.
When Li Laosan wants to go to the fields, he wears gray coarse clothes and pants, no different from ordinary farmers.
As soon as the couple appeared, the old women sewing under the big tree at the entrance of the village stopped and stared at them. Old
Mrs. Li didn't care. She stepped forward with a smile and said, "Sisters, I'm doing needlework! My legs and feet are sore. Can I lend you a place to rest?"
He stretched out his hand to avoid hitting the smiling man. The women quickly nodded in greeting, and one of the oldest ones responded: "You're welcome, sister. If you don't mind our dirty place, just sit down." "Oh, what are you disgusted with? We are all locals pretending to be farmers!" Old Mrs. Li laughed and shouted to her son, "Silly boy, what are you waiting for? Bring me my snacks and I will share them with the old sisters. Eat."
Li Laosan quickly stepped forward and held the box in his hand to his mother.
Mrs. Li first greeted the three or four naughty dolls playing in the mud next to her. When she saw that their hands were dirty, she took off the handkerchief and wiped them clean. Then she opened the box and gave each of them a small handful of crispy peanuts.
She put the rest among the old women and said, "Old sisters, try it, this is my daughter-in-law's craftsmanship."
The old women had already put smiles on their faces, after all, whose children are loved by others.
Mrs. Li didn't mind that their children were dirty. She not only wiped their hands but also gave them food. This made them very happy and they were naturally much more enthusiastic than before.
An old woman in gray clothes took a few peanuts first and said with a smile: "Then we are not polite. Old girl, your wife is so filial. When you go out for a walk, I will bring you snacks!"
"Yes," the companion sitting next to her echoed, "Old girl, you are so lucky. My daughter-in-law wishes I had died early to save some food for the family."
Mrs. Li waved her hand and said, " Every family has problems that are hard to recite, and they have children. Those who have no children are helpless in their old age.
"The head of our original village has no children. He just got married to a young couple a few days ago. As an adopted son and adopted daughter, I just want someone to rely on when I grow old! "
Oh, how come this is similar to the village chief of our village? Our village chief has no children!" "
It's different. The village chief has no children, but his brother's family has five boys, and they are all very filial and capable!" "
A few old women were eating melon seeds and peanuts, occasionally shouting at their children, and their chat with Old Mrs. Li became more and more heated. Mr.
Li was sitting under a tree a few steps away. He didn't pay attention at first, but gradually You could tell the taste.
After finishing the melon seeds and peanuts, Old Mrs. Li's mouth was dry, so she waved goodbye to the old ladies.
The couple walked on the road again, and Old Mrs. Li asked: "Third brother, what are you doing?" Can you hear anything?
Li Laosan nodded vigorously, looking very excited, "Mom, you are really amazing. You want to leave the vegetable garden errands to the village chief's nephews, don't you? " Mrs.
Li smiled and shook her head, "Yes, and no." "
Lao San Li was confused. Mrs. Li had no choice but to continue to tease her son, "The vegetables grown in the vegetable garden are to be supplied to the canteen. If there is any problem, it will be a big deal. Therefore, it can only be managed by our own family members whom we can trust. "
Then how do you want to appease these people? They regard our family as the fat on their pillows, and they can't wait to take a bite at any time!" "Li Laosan was worried.
Mrs. Li pointed to the fields in the distance, "Of course they turn the fat into their own! There are only a few hundred people in the academy, so it is enough to allocate ten acres of land to grow vegetables, and the remaining twenty acres of land will be rented out.
"The village chief's younger brother's home is definitely the first choice, but he can only give ten acres. The other ten acres will be found in the village. The two families will supervise each other to prevent one family from dominating and the slave bullying the master.
"In the future, there will be chores in the vegetable field. Son, you can also find the women in the tenant households. In this way, our family's vegetable plot will be damaged, and they will not be able to earn pocket money. In fact, if our family gets angry and leaves, their family will not even have a field to plant!
"Let them know that if our family is good, they will be fine, and if our family is not good, they will be fine too. From now on, we don't have to worry about it, they will take the initiative to help take care of the vegetable plot and maintain our home!"
Li Laosan His eyes lit up when he heard it, and he happily responded: "Mom, this is a good idea!"
