Ordinary people's rice bowl

Chapter 202
The heavy snow before the Spring Festival made the children of the farm family very happy.

Early in the morning, before the sun climbed the hill, Xiaowangzhuang Village was extremely lively.Not to mention the roar of the machines in the feed mill, not to mention the laughter of the people who are sharpening their knives at the pigs and sheep in the yard, not to mention the laughter of the whole village waving shovels and brooms, the most intense is concentrated in the streets. Children having a snowball fight with the field.

The snow was so thick that the children stepped on it almost to their knees. In the eyes of the children, such heavy snow, which had not been seen in more than ten years, was almost innumerable magic. The red clothes against the white snow were like clusters of active flames , jumping in the snow; the children in green clothes, like clusters of moving spherical green plants, kept rolling in the field; the more eye-catching are the boys in black, standing in the "flame" Shuttle with the "green plants" to form a complete, exciting, cheerful and smooth symphonic notes.

Before Mu Yan finished sweeping the snow, Mu Bao had already played with the children in the village and came back panting with steam on his head.

"Where did you go, my father asked you just now!" Mu Yan asked Mu Bao, who had just entered the door.

"Ask me what to do? I have finished all my homework for the winter vacation." Mu Bao stared at Mu Yan with some doubts and said.

"It seems that I have something to do with you?"

"What's the matter? Could it be buying me new clothes?"

"Just your head, you can only think of good things!"

"It's not enough to think about good things. Look at Wang Laijun, the newly bought padded jacket is not only good-looking, but also much lighter to wear!"

"He has money, but we can't compare with others. His father works in a feed factory and earns a lot of money!" In the past few days, the most popular thing in the village is the salary of the feed factory, which is the most worthy of the whole village. Envious income.

"I know they have a lot of income. According to what you said, our family's income is low, so we won't buy new clothes?" Mu Bao pouted a little unhappy, as if he was angry with his sister.

"Don't be angry, my sister will weave more bags to make money for you to buy tomorrow." Mu Yan looked at Mu Bao's unhappy expression, and felt a little bit sorry for his brother who was three years younger than her. Although he was only three years older than her brother, she was still at home. She is already a little housekeeper, and she is in charge of the meager income of the family, and she is also the main force of the family's income. After one month, the income from weaving bags is more than double the monthly salary of Lao Mu!

"You are really my good sister!" Taking advantage of Mu Yan's inattention, Mu Bao went up to hug her sister's face and kissed her.

"Who told me to be your sister? You just need to love your sister when you grow up!" Mu Yan said happily teasing her younger brother.

"If you don't love me, who do you love?" Mu Bao circled around Mu Yan and continued, "Does it need to be said?"

Old Mu who was standing in the courtyard heard the conversation between the brothers and sisters, and felt very uncomfortable, yes!The child is right, my meager income at school has not been enough for my own smoking money, and even the daily expenses of the whole family, let alone buying decent clothes for the child, but I can’t bear to leave school by myself After teaching for so many years, besides helping students solve their learning problems and imparting knowledge that is repeated every year, what else can I do?I don’t understand business. I’m not as good as an old farmer when it comes to agricultural production. Now that I leave school, I may not even be as good as an old farmer. Although this platform makes me hard-pressed, without this platform, I really can’t find life. direction.Thinking of this, Lao Mu suddenly called out to the courtyard door: "Mu Bao!"

"Hey!" Mu Bao agreed and ran towards the courtyard.

"Go to your Uncle Tiancheng's house and tell him to wait for me at home after breakfast!"

"That's all?" Mu Bao tilted his head and stared at Lao Mu's face with some doubts.

"Just say so when you see him!" Lao Mu nodded to confirm what he just said.

Mu Bao turned around and ran out the door. Old Mu shouted loudly from behind: "The road outside is slippery, be careful!"

"Understood!" Mu Bao agreed while running.

Mu Baojian is really a born diplomat. When he was a child, he was willing to follow wherever he went. Now, as long as it is for running errands, he is the most willing to go. Along the way, he bounced around like a happy little rabbit.

When Mu Bao stood at the door of Tian Cheng's house, he happened to meet Lian Ying sweeping the snow and going out, Mu Bao didn't look younger than ten years old, his mouth was very sweet: "Auntie, where is my uncle?"

"Isn't this Mu Bao? He went out early in the morning." Lian Ying was obviously a little stunned when she saw Mu Bao. There must be something wrong when she came home so early.Then he asked, "What can I do with your uncle?"

"It's no big deal. My dad asked me to tell him to wait for my dad at home after breakfast. That's all there is to it, nothing else matters!"

After Mu Bao finished speaking, he was about to leave, when Lianying called Mu Bao, "Don't rush to run, I have some things to bring back." After speaking, she put down the broom in her hand, turned around and walked into the house.

Leaning slightly, Lianying came out of the house, holding a pastry box in her hand, and said to Mu Bao: "Here we come, Auntie will give you a bag of food."

"I don't want it, I don't want it!" Mu Bao shouted and stepped back.

Lian Ying took a step forward, stuffed the dim sum in her hand into Mu Bao's arms, and said, "You're still ashamed. Auntie told you to take it, so you just take it. Why shouldn't you eat it?"

Mu Bao couldn't help it, so he took the snacks from Lian Yingsai and went home happily.

When Mu Bao told Lao Mu that Uncle Tian Cheng was not at home, Lao Mu didn't care about it. He thought that the holiday would be the busiest day for Tian Cheng. Isn't there one more person here for the festival?

When Lao Mu saw the dim sum in Mu Bao's hand, he immediately understood: "Did your aunt Tiancheng give you this?"

Mu Bao nodded and replied: "It's not what I want. She gave it to me, but I don't want it! She forced it on me."

"It makes you nervous. If you want it, you want it. Did you say thank you to your aunt?"

Mu Zhen's concerned question immediately relieved Mu Bao of his nervousness, and he continued casually: "Of course I did, she promised to tell Uncle Tian Cheng what you said!"

Mu Bao thought to himself, I don't want it, I forced it, and I really forgot to say thank you in a moment of impatience, but in front of Lao Mu, I have to follow Lao Mu's words, this is the conclusion Mu Zhen came to at a young age, what? Things must be said according to Lao Mu's ideas, otherwise he will be unhappy.

After Mu Bao finished speaking, he opened the dim sum bag carefully. The regular pastries inside included red three knives, croissant honey, mouth crisps, and several unknown pastries, which made Mu Bao salivate. .

Mu Bao grabbed some snacks and ran to the kitchen, and stuffed the Red Three Swords into the mouth of Mu Yan who was cooking in the kitchen: "Sister, do I love you?"

"It hurts!" Mu Yan boasted.

Xiuhua at the side looked at Mu Bao's actions and said with a smile: "I love your sister so much, there must be something I can ask of your sister!"

Mu Bao grimaced and said with a smile: "I don't ask her, I just let her satisfy her hunger!" He said and put a croissant into Xiuhua's mouth.

The three mothers all laughed, and the laughter filled the whole air with a peaceful atmosphere.
