Nongmen group pet small blessing bag

Chapter 5

Just after dawn, Dai Qingyun couldn't sleep because Dai Qingyu next door was losing his temper again.

What can I say, I can't sleep, there are mosquitoes, and it will be like this for a while.

Dai Qingyun simply got up, washed her face, and walked around the village as a way of exercising. In modern times, she was also used to morning jogging.

The stone village was built next to a big mountain. The fog has not completely dissipated, and there are a few crowing and dog barking in the village from time to time. Dai Qingyun feels very comfortable. This kind of living environment is not bad, and rural life is the way to maintain health. way.

Walking behind Dai's house for a while, I saw a small river with a few willow trees beside the river.

There are two women washing vegetables by the river.

Dai Qingyun couldn't help being surprised that the genius had just dawned so early.

"Hey, this is the little girl from the Dai family."

The woman in gray sackcloth looked up and saw Dai Qingyun, and greeted Dai Qingyun with a smile.

"Hello, auntie." Dai Qingyun walked over and smiled.

"Oh, the girls from this city are different. Look at this one with thin skin and tender flesh. It's so pretty."

Another woman in a dark blue dress also looked at her with a smile.

Dai Qingyun thanked her, and asked curiously, "Why did my aunt wash the vegetables so early?"

The two women looked at each other and smiled, "There are a lot of people in the family, so we need to cook earlier."

The three of them chatted one after another, the one in gray was Aunt Liu, who lived next door to Dai's house, the one in dark blue was Aunt Zhang, and Zhang Li was her uncle.

After chatting for a while, Dai Qingyun learned that Stone Village has a total of more than 130 households, which is a relatively large population. Unfortunately, the fields are compact and every household is living a tight life.

Fortunately, Zhang Li is a conscientious person who always finds some work in the town for the village.

Dai Qingyun couldn't help worrying that their family had no fields and no land when they first arrived, and the money was used up as fast as water.

When I got home, several sisters-in-law of the Zhao family were already cooking. Although 1 of them were unwilling, they had no choice.

I made corn paste as yesterday, stewed eggplant with potatoes, and fried cabbage.

Divided into two tables in the main room, the men don't care, although they have lived a good life for a few years, but in their bones, they still follow the hardships of the old man.

It is said that it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality, no, except for Dai Qingyun's delicious food at the table of women's relatives who are frowning, Li Shi has no appetite because of morning sickness, and the others ate it one after another.

Seeing this, Mrs. Lin closed her eyelids, and said lightly, "If you don't eat enough from this meal, it will be night after dinner."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Dai Qingyun, "Yun'er girl, eat more, don't learn those picky and rotten virtues."

Dai Qingyun secretly smiled, since Mrs. Lin left Huai'an Mansion, she changed her manners and manners from before, and now she feels a little free and unrestrained.

The two elders looked very good-natured, but the aunts were a little listless.

"After dinner, we went to the town to buy some farm tools, pens, ink, paper and inkstones, and some cloth and cotton."

Lin thought for a while and said, "Buy some more chickens and ducks to raise."

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhao frowned and curled her lips. She hasn't raised these livestock for many years...

"Grandma, grandma, let's not buy pens, inks, papers and inkstones. Buy the most important things first."

Dai Mingwen shook his head. He is the eldest grandson of the family, so naturally he has to consider the big family.

"Brother is right, grandpa, grandma, we are not in a hurry, we can go to the town to help copy letters and make money before buying."

Dai Mingan put down his chopsticks, the two of them have been personally raised by the old man since their enlightenment, and their temperament and temper are a bit like the old man's.

"No, elder brother, you will take the provincial examination next year, how can you..." Dai Qingyu looked at her elder brother disapprovingly, and wanted to say something, when she saw her elder brother shaking his head at her.

"Eat first, let's talk after eating."

The old man sent a message, and each of them finished their breakfast with hidden thoughts.

After the meal, the old man brought Ming Wenming into the room to talk.

"The fourth daughter-in-law had a hard pregnancy, so she rested at home. The eldest daughter-in-law, the second daughter-in-law, and the third daughter-in-law went to town with me. As for you girls, you cleaned up at home and took care of the dishes in the backyard."

Lin made arrangements, and at this time the old man also came out with Ming Wen'an.

"Ming Wen'an is 16 years old and the other is 14 years old. They are still young. I will wait for the next provincial examination."

The old man looked at the two grandsons and was very relieved.

"It would be good for them to take the exam a few years later, and accumulate more experience first."

Although Zhao's and Qian's are a little reluctant, but the family really doesn't have the conditions now, just save a few more years of money.

So all the adults in the family went to the town to buy things, leaving only the four sisters and a young Shiro Dai Mingkang.

Dai Qingyu glared at the others, "I don't know how to do this, you can figure it out."

After speaking, I went back to the house.

Dai Qingyun was speechless, took the remaining two "sisters" and younger brother to clean the house, and then went to the backyard to pull weeds.

What I didn't expect was that Dai Qingrong, who had always been a little arrogant, didn't refuse, and worked honestly.

Dai Qingyi took his younger brother to teach him to pull weeds in the cabbage field.

"Do you think our family can only live here in the future?"

After a while, Dai Qingrong finally spoke, lowering her head sullenly.

"What's the matter, you don't like this kind of life?"

Dai Qingyun looked up, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and looked at her with a smile, "Then do you want to live the life before?"

"Of course I thought about it, but..." Dai Qingrong curled her lips and threw the weeds in her hands.

Dai Qingyun smiled and had an idea in his mind.

The most important thing is to get two partners to help her!

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, the Dai family has been in Stone Village for half a month.

Dai's family has no land, so they can only buy [-] acres of wasteland to open up wasteland and fertilize. They are used to the days of eating with clothes and mouth. Now they work in the field every day, and the whole family is tired and falls asleep at night.

Dai Qingyun's little girls helped Mrs. Lin cook at home, except for picking up rocks and stacking weeds in the field in the morning.

"Grandma, it's the Qiqiao Festival in two days. I want to go to the town to play."

Dai Qingyun asked Lin carefully, and heard from Aunt Li that it would be very lively that day, and she was very interested in such customs.

"Grandma, I want to go too, I want to go too!" Dai Qingrong immediately agreed, going to the town is better than staying in the village every day.

Dai Qingyi also looked at Lin expectantly.

Only Dai Qingyu was bored at the side choosing vegetables, not talking. Since she came to Stone Village, she stayed in the house every day and didn't go out, and she seldom said anything.

Lin nodded, "Well, okay, Yu'er, you are the eldest sister, take care of your younger sisters then."

"I won't go." Dai Qingyu lowered his head and replied.

Lin didn't care either, "Then let Erlang take you there then."

"Grandma, where are you going? I want to go too." Shiro ran in, followed by two little boys.

"You brat, you have sharp ears." Lin took out a handkerchief and wiped his sweat, "Take the two of them to the main room to drink a bowl of herbal tea before going out to play."

"Thank you, Grandma Lin." The two dark-skinned boys looked at Lin with a smile.

……

Two days later, during the Qiqiao Festival, Qingshi Town is very lively, and the riverside is full of lanterns and colored paper.

There are stalls, shopkeepers walking in the streets and alleys, and there are bustling crowds in front of each shop, and there is a lively scene everywhere.

Erlang hugged Shiro, with a dark face, he would not have come if he had known, Shiro, a brat, was tired after walking for a while!

"Second brother, don't be angry, we will let Shiro down by the river later."

Dai Qingrong said with a smile, among the brothers in the family, only Erlang played with them.

Dai Qingyun carefully looked at each booth to see if there was anything she wanted.

"Yun'er, what are you looking at?" Dai Qingyi followed her gaze, there was nothing special, they were all equally lively.

"It's nothing, let's go, let's go to the river to release the river lantern."

Dai Qingyun dragged the two of them to the river, seeing Erlang's unhappy face a little funny.

After getting along for a period of time, she has roughly understood the character of this family.

The old man and the old lady have good tempers, provided they are obedient.

Uncle and auntie are a little narrow-minded and don't want to suffer.

The second uncle and the second aunt have a lot of thoughts, and there are some fools on the wall.

The third uncle and the third aunt are not very talkative, so they can barely be considered honest.

As for her parents, they are simple and honest, and have a good personality, unless they are in a hurry.

Dalang Saburo has a gentle personality, but Dalang is much more mature and has his own success in doing things, while Saburo is more dull.

Although Erlang doesn't like reading, he is cheerful and sociable.

As for the younger ones, except for Dai Qingyu's somewhat arrogant personality, they are all passable. After all, they are all in their teens, and they have already played with Dai Qingyun.

After a while, I arrived at the river, and I didn't expect it to be more lively than the street.

"Follow me closely, don't get lost."

Erlang struggled to hold Shiro, looked at these brothers and sisters, couldn't help regretting, if he knew so many people would not come today! ! !
"Don't worry, second brother, I won't get lost." Dai Qingyun smiled mischievously, and patted Erlang's shoulder on tiptoe, pretending to be old-fashioned, "Sister Rong'er and I went over there to buy some river lanterns and came over. "

Erlang pinched her baby's plump cheeks, "Come over as soon as you finish shopping, do you hear me?"

"I got it, I got it, second brother, don't be long-winded."

Dai Qingrong couldn't wait to drag Dai Qingyun to the front of the stall selling river lanterns.

The two bought five simple river lanterns for five Wen, then turned to look for Erlang and the others.

"Second brother, look at this river lantern is really ugly." Dai Qingrong pouted, playing with the river lantern in his hand, "The river lantern we put up last year was big and beautiful."

"In the future, we will buy beautiful river lanterns when we have money." Dai Qingyi smiled slightly, and took Dai Qingrong's hand to squat by the river to release the river lanterns.

Erlang pursed his lips, thinking about last year...

Shaking his head, forget it, there is nothing to think about in the past.

Dai Qingyun didn't think the river lantern was ugly, it was just a ritual.

A few people set off the river lanterns and started to visit Lantern Street.

Lantern Street, as the name suggests, all kinds of lanterns are lined up and hung on both sides of the street. Now the sky is getting dark and the candles are lit, which looks very beautiful.

"Second Brother, Second Brother, I want sugar figurines!" Shiro stared at the various sugar figurines at the booth next to him with bright eyes, almost drooling.

Erlang rubbed Shiro's head, "Too much candy hurts my tooth, good boy, let's not eat it."

Dai Qingyun looked at Shiro's pouting displeasure, and reached out to pinch his chubby cheeks.

"Call it Fourth Sister, and Fourth Sister will buy it for you."

"Really? Really? The fourth sister is the best, and the fourth sister will buy it for me!"

"Hmm, but if you eat this candy man, you are not allowed to make a fuss and eat it again."

"Okay, I'll listen to Fourth Sister!"

Shiro hugged Dai Qingyun's arm, so greedy.

So Dai Qingyun bought five sugar figurines, one for each person.

Erlang looked at the sugar figurine in his hand and laughed out loud, "Fourth sister, you bought it for me anyway, how old I am."
