Chapter 238 Chapter 238

The voices of Zhao Yuanlan and He Ju came, and they seemed to be arguing about something.

Zhao Yuanle and Yao'er went out and saw two people who were tugging outside the door.

When Zhao Yuanlan saw Zhao Yuanle coming, she hurriedly asked her for help.

"Second sister, my mother is going to rob me of the rest of my money, please help me quickly."

Zhao Yuanle hurried over and grabbed He Ju.

"San Niang, give her the rest, she said she will save it, and won't use it indiscriminately."

He Ju carefully guarded her basket of eggs, annoyed: "What are you going to do to her, it will be wasted again."

Zhao Yuanle: "But I agreed to everything, what can't be said is nothing."

Zhao Yuanlan echoed with a snort from behind: "That's right!"

He Ju had no choice but to let go, and couldn't help but glared at Zhao Yuanlan.

"Don't use it indiscriminately!"

Zhao Yuanlan stuck out her tongue and snorted.

He Ju also ignored Zhao Yuanlan, she put the basket in the cabinet, covered it with a piece of cloth, and went into the kitchen to cook.

Zhao Yuanle suddenly remembered that he hadn't fed the chicken yet, so he quickly made chicken food and fed it to the chicken.

After she came back, He Ju's voice came from the kitchen.

"Go chase the ducks back."

Zhao Yuanle nodded, turned and went out, and Yao'er followed her with her short legs.

"Sister, I am with you."

The two walked on the ridge of the field one after the other, crossed a path planted with rows of dwarf plum trees, and arrived at the pond full of floats.

Because the pond could not be fully fished by the floats, no fish could be raised, so it could only plant lotus roots. At this time, the lotus leaves were still lush, and the lotus flowers had not yet been seen.

Zhao Yuanle held a long bamboo pole in his hand, and with a yell, the ducks came up in the direction she was driving, followed the big duck in front one by one, and swayed towards the house.

These ducks know the way, so they don't need to worry too much about the people driving them away.

Zhao Yuanle walked behind carrying a bamboo pole, followed by a Yao'er.

When passing by the row of short plum trees, Zhao Yuanle leveled the bamboo poles as usual so that he could walk over.

Yao'er raised his head, pointed at the branches of the plum tree, and jumped up happily.

"Guoguo."

When Zhao Yuanle raised his head slightly, he could see the little plums knotted on it.

She thought the tree was pretty good, it was short and it bore a lot of fruit, so it was so convenient to pick when it was ripe.

At this time, Yao'er trotted a few steps and picked up two fallen plums from under a tree.

He holds one in each hand and observes carefully in front of his eyes.

Zhao Yuanle: "That's bad."

Yao'er: "I know, I want to use this to play with a slingshot."

Zhao Yuanle was very curious about this.

"Why?"

Yao'er: "It doesn't hurt to beat someone."

With a heartbeat, Zhao Yuanle said, "Which one do you want to fight?"

Yao'er covered his mouth all of a sudden, glanced at Zhao Yuanle secretly with small eyes, and then shook his head: "Don't hit anyone."

Zhao Yuanle snorted.

She didn't ask for now, and told Xiaolan when the time came, she asked Xiaolan to pay attention to see who her younger brother wanted to hit.

The two drove the ducks home and passed the entrance of the village.

The old women at the entrance of the village choose vegetables, chat and work there every day, and there are other girls and daughters-in-law beside them.

Zhao Yuanlan was holding empty hands at this time, and was choosing vegetables and talking with Xiu'er.

Seeing Zhao Yuanle and Yao'er come back, she shouted to them, "Sister, wait a few days, we can eat cherries."

Xiu'er hurriedly hissed at Zhao Yuanlan.

"Let's not talk about it, there are many people here." At that time, those people will come to her house to eat cherries.

Zhao Yuanle's eyes lit up.

She seldom gets fresh fruit here, and it would be nice to have cherries.

Zhao Yuanle: "How many days are you waiting for? Where are you going?"

Zhao Yuanlan caught Xiu'er's eyes and coughed.

"I'll talk to you later."

Zhao Yuanle and Yao'er passed by, Xiu'er smiled at them, took out a handful of mulberry bubbles from her pocket, and stuffed them into Yao'er.

"Take it home and eat, Xiaolan and I met on the road today."

Zhao Yuanle: "Save it for your younger brothers and sisters to eat."

Xiu'er: "My brother ate it, this is for Yao'er, sister, you can eat too."

Yao'er took a handful full of it with her small hand and gave it to Zhao Yuanle.

Zhao Yuanle took one and threw it into his mouth, and took a bite. It tasted good, purple-black, and sweet enough.

She remembered that when she was a child, she also saw these things at her grandmother's house, but at that time, her grandmother told her that they were crawled by poisonous ants and could not be eaten.

Later, she found out that it was because mulberry trees were always planted near the fields and were easily swept away by pesticides, so grandma didn't let her eat them.

At this time, there is no pesticide, so mulberries can be eaten.

After thinking about it, she looked at Zhao Yuanlan: "You picked it together, have you finished eating?"

Zhao Yuanlan: "I didn't eat a few, I gave them to her, and she also reserved them for you."

Zhao Yuanle smiled and thanked Xiu'er.

Yao'er also obediently said thank you to Xiu'er.

The two wanted to continue going home with the duck, and she asked Zhao Yuanlan when she would go back.

Zhao Yuanlan: "Go back after eating."

Zhao Yuanle glanced at the smoke coming out of the back of her house, and reminded her, "It's coming soon."

Zhao Yuanlan: "I know."

When Zhao Yuanle and Yao'er went back, Xiu'er couldn't help asking Zhao Yuanlan: "Is your sister really going to a big place? Will she buy you new clothes?"

Zhao Yuanlan raised her chin and nodded arrogantly: "Really, she keeps her word."

Hearing this, Xiu'er's eyes were filled with envy.

She asked again: "Tell me, when will your pig give birth?"

Zhao Yuanlan didn't know about this.

"I have to ask my sister about it, but it should be soon."

Xiu'er: "My mother said, your pigs grow so fast that they can grow three to four hundred catties a year. She also wants to catch a white one and bring it back to raise."

Zhao Yuanlan patted her chest: "When the time comes, I'll tell my sister that our two families have such a good relationship, and you must be part of it."

Xiu'er took another look from her purse and took out the remaining mulberries.

"This is for you to eat, you're going back soon, your mother will scold you again later."

Zhao Yuanlan didn't want it.

"You can eat it by yourself now. Every time, your brother eats what's good, and your sister eats the rest. You don't even have to eat. You're so skinny. You're much shorter than me."

Xiu'er's face suddenly changed.

She stopped the movement of her hands and told Zhao Yuanlan about her marriage.

"My mother is telling me about someone else. She said that she will definitely marry me before I turn fifteen."

When Zhao Yuanlan heard this, she was concerned about who Xiu'er would talk about.

"Don't marry far away, it will be very difficult for me to find you in the future."

Xiu'er glanced at the pink sky, her eyes were very dim.

"I don't know. She didn't say where she was looking for, she just said she wanted someone who could afford the bride price."

Her eyes drifted back to look at Zhao Yuanlan. Sometimes, she really envied the only child Zhao Yuanlan.
