The whole family crosses to farm

Chapter 20 Xianghe
"Does your daughter like it here?" Lin Jiale picked up her daughter and tossed her twice.

Lin Chunnong was speechless, since her health improved, her father liked to lift her up, and she was not a real child.

But this feeling similar to flying, from the perspective of an adult, is pretty good.

"I like this place, Dad. Isn't there a lake farther away from our house?" When Lin Chunnong came here just now, he saw that there was a sparkling light there.

"When I was young, my eyes were good. There is indeed a lake three or four hundred meters away. There are seven big apricot trees around the lake. People in the village call it Qixing Lake. But I heard from the villagers that the apricot tree only blooms but does not bear fruit. , Some old people said that they were evil, and they didn't dare to cut them off, and they rarely came here."

Fang Xiaocao said with a smile: "In this way, our home will be clean. When I live in the village, what I worry most about is the neighbor relationship."

In fact, it was not so good when I was in the town. From time to time, neighbors would come to the house to borrow some things, or go to chat with her. The two months in the town were worse than the five years in the Lin family in the county. There are many people to meet.

Knowing that his wife is not good at dealing with people, which is popularly known as social fear, Lin Jiale said: "It doesn't matter, even if someone comes to our house, I will be there."

Before the words were finished, a friendly voice came from the door, "Second Master Lin, I heard that you have moved here. My Xianghe father asked me to come and see. Is there anything I can help you with?"

The woman was wearing a dress of dark blue and white flowers, with a bamboo basket in her arms, which contained two picked Chinese cabbages with only clean leaves left.

Behind, followed by a little girl about five or six years old.

The little girl was wearing a bamboo-leaf-patterned muslin, with a wheat complexion and two simple braids on her head. She grabbed the woman's clothes and looked at the family in the yard.

Lin Jiale knew this woman, and introduced to his wife: "This is Mrs. Chen Si, who lives in the northernmost family in the village."

Fang Xiaocao greeted: "Fourth sister-in-law, come in quickly." As she said, she unpacked the bag, took out a pack of candied fruit and handed it to the little girl, "You are Xianghe, my aunt invites you to eat candied fruit."

Xianghe carried the shyness typical of country children, she didn't say thank you, and didn't answer, she just shook her head and hid behind her mother.

Lin Chunnong felt that he was a child, and he should be good at diplomacy among children. He ran over and took the candied fruit from Fang Xiaocao's hand to himself, and said to Xianghe, "Hi Xianghe, let's eat together."

Xianghe looked up, and Lin Chunnong realized that this little girl was very good-looking, with big and round eyes, very cute.

Xianghe had never seen such a beautiful little sister, and when she saw that she wanted to get close to him, she suddenly had the courage to put aside her shyness when she just met a stranger, and nodded.

Lin Chunnong and the little girl Xianghe squatted in the yard to eat candied fruit, and she told others that this was more delicious and what it tasted like.

The three adults were also talking, talking about what to cook for the hot pot meal later.

Fang Xiaocao ordered several dishes, including fried peanuts, fried bacon with garlic sprouts, fried bamboo shoots, some pickled fish that she made herself, and asked Mrs. Chen for her opinion.

At this moment Fang Xiaocao already knew the name of the fourth sister-in-law, and said, "Sister Ying, there isn't a single fresh dish here, so I don't know if it will work."

Zhao Meiying is a very hearty person, and said with a smile: "Sister, you really invited them to a restaurant. In my opinion, only two dishes are enough, and a pot of vermicelli and cabbage stewed, with two slices of bacon in the dishes, will be kept in the village. People eat to their heart’s content.”

He said and looked at the sun in the sky, "It will be noon soon, let's make the noodles first, I am good at making this, put some vegetables, and steam a pot of vegetables, it will keep you full and save noodles."

Fang Xiaocao looked at Lao Lin next to him, is this okay?

"Sure, the fourth sister-in-law knows better than us about things in the countryside," Lin Jiale went out to get a piece of meat from the car. It was bought at a meat stall when they left the town. It weighed five or six catties, and he delivered it directly In the kitchen, "I will cook the big pot dishes and stew all the meat."

Fang Xiaocao looked shabby, isn't that just five or six catties of meat?I don't even think about how many people you invited on the way. I'm afraid that people from a village will come to eat hot pot meals.

I am not afraid that people will come to eat, but I am afraid that they will not come. Although it costs more to come all the time, I still accept them and give them a face as a newcomer.

Five or six catties of meat stewed in a big pot that the whole village eats, does it still taste like meat?

Anyway, the bacon and garlic sprouts are all ready, Fang Xiaocao thinks it's better to make them.

When the adults got busy, Lin Chunnong and Xianghe were already getting familiar with each other. Xianghe felt that he had eaten a lot of snacks from his little friend's house, so he said, "Sister Nong, I know that there is a delicious wild vegetable in the forest by the mountain. If so, I'll take you to pick it."

It is safe in the village, Lin Chunnong agreed.But I was worried that my parents would not find her, so I went to the house and told my brother who could only pack and put away things by himself.

Lin Chunxing looked out and said, "Then be careful, you will be back in a while, don't go inside."

"Okay, I got it," Lin Chunnong agreed, and ran out the door.

At this time, several women came out of the Lin family's courtyard. They were still carrying things in their hands, such as a handful of garlic or shallots. Although they were not worth much, none of them were empty-handed.

This is the way to get along. Lin Chunnong is most annoyed by the kind of people who don't show anything and just want to take advantage of others. Now that he looks at it, his impression of the people in Yishui Village has improved.

It is indeed the place where her father decided to settle down, and it has a strong human touch.

As for the woman I met when I was near the village, just ignore it, no matter how good a place is, there will always be one or two people with bad intentions.

Xianghe's calf ran very fast, and after walking for a while, she found that her newly-acquainted sister was behind, and hurried back to pick her up, this time directly holding Lin Chunnong's hand.

Seeing her wow, Lin Chunnong pinched her and said, "Sister Nong, your hands are so soft."

Feeling being molested, Lin Chunnong thought to himself that if you are a little boy, I won't play with you at this time.
