A week later, Lin Lan came back from setting up a stall. As soon as she walked to the gate of the yard, she heard the voice of Little Douzi teasing Rhubarb from the yard. She pushed open the door in surprise, opened her arms and shouted, "Douzi, mother is back!"

"Mom, I miss you so much!" Xiaodouzi flew into Lin Lan's arms.

"Mom misses you too. You've grown taller. What did grandma cook for you? You've grown taller in just a few days." Looking at her son, who was a few degrees tanned but more cheerful and lively, Lin Lan felt that letting him live in her mother's house A few days is the right decision.

"Grandma's house is fun." Xiaodouzi took her to chat with him about fishing and playing games in the Shilian Brigade with his cousin and friends.

Wu Shufen happily told Lin Lan that her grandson was smarter than her grandsons. Lin Qing went home to do her homework, and when reading the text, Xiaodouzi followed it twice and could memorize it all.

"Mom, Sister Xiaohong even gave me textbooks, and she even taught me to recite poems."

Lin Lan looked at him with a smile and narrowed her eyes: "Come here, Mom, listen!"

Xiaodouzi nodded, and recited aloud: "It's noon on the day of hoeing, sweat drips down the soil..."

Lin Lan gave him a thumbs up: "Okay! My son is really capable! I will send you to kindergarten in the second half of the year."

Xiaodouzi happily snuggled into her arms, looking at her with bright eyes: "Yes! I will study hard and get [-]% in the exam."

Lin Yuezhen looked at him happily and hugged him.

Wu Shufen brought beans, rapeseed oil, mushrooms and a jar full of honey this time.

He also told Lin Lan that the family ordered a lot of rapeseed oil and beans for her. The two brothers made oil barrels at home and found wood to build an Eight Immortals table for her.

Lin Lan nodded heartily, went to the car repair shop to buy all the remaining doll books, and took them back for the children.

Wu Shufen stayed at Lin Lan's house for a few days, and seeing that Lin Lan's business was doing well and getting along well with Lin Yuezhen, she went home with the money Lin Lan gave her for collecting walnuts and peanuts.

At the end of the month, the rapeseed in the private plot was ripe, and Lin Lan was ready to harvest the rapeseed.

The Wang Zhixue brothers stopped the Lin Lan sisters and didn't want them to do anything. After half an afternoon, the brothers took the rapeseed back to the yard.

The Lin Lan sisters spread the rapeseed on the sun mat. After two days of exposure, they beat the rapeseed with a flail and dried it in the sun. After that, they harvested a basket of rapeseed, and sent it to the oil mill to get [-] to [-] catties of rapeseed oil.

Rapeseed stalks and shells are dried and put into the woodshed to make matches.

There are also more people harvesting rapeseed and extracting oil, and everyone is willing to sell part of the rapeseed oil.

Li Guizhi returned to her natal home to collect several barrels of rapeseed oil, several sacks of beans, red beans, mung beans, and soybeans, and Lin Lan took them all after inspection.

Seeing that Li Guizhi and his wife have been busy for half a month, they have earned more than 20 yuan. They are so happy that they can't close their mouths, and the relationship between the two families has also become closer.

After the rapeseed was harvested, the vegetables in the rapeseed field also grew old. When Lin Lan set up a stall, Lin Yuezhen chopped them all home, picked off the old yellow leaves, peeled off the old skin and carried them to the ditch to clean them.

A few rows of ropes were pulled on the edge of the eaves, and the vegetables were dried on the ropes one by one. The sun was shining, and the vegetables wilted after two days of drying.

When Lin Lan returned home in the afternoon, the two sisters took out the sun-dried vegetables, washed them with well water, put them in a large clean wooden basin, added salt and kneaded the vegetables until the vegetables came out of juice.

Kneading salted vegetables is a tiring job. The Lin Lan sisters closed the stall and went home, and the Wang Zhixue brother was so busy that they kneaded all the vegetables, squeezed out the water, put them neatly in a bucket, pressed Cover tightly to marinate.

Lin Lan went to the supply and marketing agency and bought two lodging altars that could hold thirty catties and were specially used for pickling salted vegetables.

The weather is hot and pickled for two days. Take out the pickled salted vegetables and clean them, squeeze out the water and dry them in the air for two days. Take five or six green vegetables and wrap them into a handful at a time, and put them into the pickled salted vegetables with the mouth facing down. In the lodging altar turned upside down.

Put the salted vegetables into the jar, and then use a clean straw handle to plug the mouth of the jar tightly and compact it.Next, put the jar upside down in a water basin, add water to cover the mouth of the jar, and after half a month of fermentation, the salted vegetables are ready.

Then I hurriedly dug out the private land and hoeed it finely, spread fertilizer, opened ridges, bought some spore-bearing yams, cut sweet potato vines and planted them, and sprinkled rapeseed in the furrows.

The temperature is rising day by day, and there are more mosquitoes. Xiaodouzi was stared at a few red and swollen bumps on her fair and tender face.

The wormwood that Lin Lan dried came in handy. Every day when it was dark, the wormwood was lit for fumigation, and the mosquitoes in the house were much less.

It was June in a blink of an eye, and the newspaper-pasted windows were airtight, making it very stuffy.

Lin Lan bought a few meters of gauze from the waiting soldiers, tore off the newspaper and replaced it with gauze, and used the remaining floral cloth to sew the curtains, and the room became brighter.

In the vegetable field, the purple-red ox horns, the slender and crystal-clear green vitex, the green cucumbers, the green green beans...all are ripe.

A lot of fresh vegetables can be picked in the vegetable garden every day. The tender cowpea is stuffed into the kimchi jar after drying, and there are also green and red sea peppers. I bought three kimchi jars and came back full.

It also needs to be given to Zhou Xiaohong, Li Wu and the others have no vegetable land to grow vegetables.

Zhou Xiaohong smiled and said that she hadn't bought any vegetables this year, and she couldn't finish the food sent by Lin Lan's and Yang Liying's.

In July, the vegetable garden of Lin Lan's family was full of melons and fruits, old pumpkins like millstones, white-skinned wax gourds like buckets, and oval white-skinned muskmelons hung all over the melon racks.

The cantaloupe is picked off, put in a vegetable basket, hung in the well, and can eat two at a time when you set up a stall and go home.

When the yams in the vegetable field were ripe, the uprooted yams were thrown into the cesspool for retting, and a ridge of yams was dug up to fill up a pinch of yams.

The largest ones are only the size of goose eggs, the well-proportioned ones are the size of duck eggs, and the small ones are not as big as eggs.

Roasted potatoes with pork ribs, mashed potatoes, roasted potatoes, fried potato strips... Lin Lan made them in different ways for Xiaodouzi to eat.

The little hen started to lay eggs, and she could pick up more than 20 eggs every day. Lin Yuezhen soaked some of the eggs she could not finish in jars, and made some into preserved eggs.

Lin Lan felt that it was still a comfortable life in this era, and she could eat whatever she wanted. Most of the people were very simple, and all the food was grown naturally and had a natural mellow aroma.

After the hot weather, the sales of orchid beans decreased a bit, so Lin Lan made mung bean cakes.

The more varieties, the more income, the four stalls, excluding rainy days, have an average income of [-] yuan a day.

Thinking that Xiaodouzi wanted to go to school, Lin Lan went to the elementary school built in the second team. After inquiring, she learned that she could go to kindergarten at the age of four, so Xiao Kai volunteered to sign up for school and came to call her.

After Lin Yuezhen found out, she cut a piece of army green cloth to make him a small schoolbag.I don’t know when I took Xiaodouzi to buy paper and pens, and there is also a printed iron pencil case that studies hard and makes progress every day.

In the blink of an eye, it was the beginning of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, and on August 29th of the Gregorian calendar, Xiao Kai came to Lin Lan and said, "Auntie, the school is signing up tomorrow."

Lin Lan smiled and nodded: "Okay! Call us tomorrow morning."

"Oh!" Xiao Kai responded and turned to leave.

"Wait, my aunt steamed the buns and steamed buns, and took two back to eat with my sister." Lin Lan went into the room and took two buns and steamed buns, and handed them to him with chopsticks.

"Thank you, auntie!" Xiao Kai happily ran outside holding the bag.
