Chapter 38
The weather was gloomy on the day when Mei Berry's family moved. Fortunately, the sun was shining a few days ago, and their house was completely dried out. Now is the best time to move back.

Her father was still talking about how the cucumber seedlings that their family got from the system before could be planted in the vegetable field after the spring rain.

After the rain cleared, he repaired the fence in the yard, put beans and wax gourds on the corners, and it was all done.

Mei Youqian couldn't wait to carry the most luggage to open the way ahead, and along the way discussed with his wife who was holding some small items about moving back home.

And Mei Berry naturally followed at the end, holding the mule cub in her hand and Fat Tiger in her arms, and suddenly felt that she was the only one in their whole family who was really leading the family.

"Tomorrow, I'll go to the town again. I heard from the third child that it's time to do something about the seedlings. Didn't he buy a piece of land earlier and plan to plant some soybeans and mung beans? He just reminded me. The vegetable fence is waiting for me to tie it up. Would you like to order some beans?
I made an appointment with him to go to the town before dawn. There will be a fair tomorrow. There are probably a lot of sellers. Then I will buy some things and bring them home. By the way, are the duck eggs at home gone?Shall I come back with some more eggs? "

"Well, buy some, and see if there are any small chickens or ducklings for sale. After raising some eggs, you don't have to buy other people's eggs every day.

Yesterday, the kid in Widow Chen's house in the village was a little angry these days, and needed some wild vegetables and duck eggs that had been removed from the fire to make soup, so I exchanged the last two duck eggs for three eggs from their family.Hey, the little hen in their house just started a nest, and the eggs are very small..."

Mei Youqian and Wei Meiliang walked in front and talked non-stop.

Mei Berry also remembered about the old hen, which was still squatting in the system, and she had to talk to her parents later.

At that time, I took advantage of her dad's reason to buy things, and then I called it "Ming Lu"~
Mei Berry can see clearly, these days every time Mei You sees the indescribable expression of the mule cub.

The system's way of understanding is really enlightening.

"Berry, Berry?"

Mei Berry was distracted, and heard her father calling her, she looked up at her father, and heard Mei Youqian ask: "Will you go to town with me tomorrow?"

"go."

Mei Berry is still very interested in shopping on the street.

This Jinshui Village walked from the village head to the village tail, even if it was such a slow journey, their family would finish walking in a quarter of an hour.

When they returned to the home that belonged to their family of three, even standing in the yard, Mei Berry felt relieved.

Finally back!
Mei Berry put down the fat tiger and entered the main room. At this time, the weeds that had grown on the ground in the room were also pulled out, and the ground was leveled again.

Although there is no furniture in the empty room at the moment, there will definitely be some in the future.

Next door to the main room is the bedroom, a bedroom, a large kang that "crosses the north and the south" looks so comfortable.

There are small tables and partitions made of bamboo on the ground, which look like the handwriting of my father.

Although the house is not big, the family sleeps together, but the small partition can be regarded as an alternative way to create a private space for Mei Berry.

The windows were also repaired by her father. Considering that the earthen house was low and the room was not bright, her father enlarged the windows on the front and rear walls a lot.

A few days ago, because of the need for exposure to the sun and ventilation, the window is open at this moment, and the wind is blowing back and forth. Mei Berry can imagine that the house is definitely not hot in summer.

It's just that this window has a disadvantage, there is no gauze, and in summer, if you want to ventilate, the mosquitoes will definitely not be able to escape.

I have to figure out a way to get some gauze to make some kind of inner window.

Realizing this, Mei Berry hurried out, intending to tell her father about it, but as soon as she went out, she found that her parents were not at home!

"What about people?"

Standing in the yard, Mei Berry could see the whole house at a glance, including the fact that there was no one in the yard.

Except for herself, there were only mules and fat tigers in the family.

Fat Tiger and Mule Cub yelped when they heard Mei Berry's voice.

"Huh? Just came back and went out?"

Knowing the whereabouts of her parents from Fat Tiger and Mule Cub, Mei Berry was not in a hurry, and sat on the stone bench in the yard to rest for a while.

After waiting for a long time, she finally looked at the couple who came back with buckets.

"Dad, have you all gone to fetch water?"

In the whole village, not every household has a well in their yard. Most of the water that people drink comes from the well under an old ginkgo tree in the center of the village.

"I'm going to fetch water. Your mother just went to say hello to the neighbors at the door and she's back."

Hearing that her mother just went to chat with her neighbors, Mei Berry also curiously asked her mother what they talked about this time.

Since Wei Meihao seemed to have something to say when she entered the yard just now, Wei Meimei was about to open her mouth immediately when Mei Berry asked——

"Wait, I'll pour the water into the tank, take me with you!"

As soon as Mei Youqian heard that the two of them had something to say, he immediately became anxious to listen to him, and poured the water he brought back into the kitchen water tank two minutes faster.

"Virtue~" Looking at Mei Youqian's unsteady look, Wei Meili brushed off the coarse cloth skirt on her body, and said, "Forget it, let's go inside, boil water, and talk slowly."

Putting on a pot of boiling water, Wei Meimei scooped up the boiling water and poured it on the eggs beaten in the bowls early in the morning. There was a piece of brown sugar at the bottom of each bowl.

Rinse the boiling water quickly, and soon, three bowls of brown sugar egg drop soup are ready.

"When I came back today, I saw two more men chopping firewood in Aunt Wang's yard. Later, I heard that Aunt Wang said that her two sons had returned."

Dividing a bowl of sand soup for each person, Wei Meili began to chat with the neighbors before.

When the water was boiling just now, her mother talked a lot about the things she heard outside.

It's basically just the gossip in the village, and occasionally some gossip from the neighboring village.

On the contrary, the matter of Aunt Wang's family was put at the end by her mother, which shows how important it is.

"Her son, I remember Aunt Wang saying that she was working on the pier a few days ago? Why did you come back here? It's a good time for spring and water transportation to go south and north. The pier is naturally lively and there are a lot of jobs. "

Mei Youqian also remembered that Aunt Wang said that his son had gone to work a few days ago, and he had heard Mei Laosan say it before.

In the past, their family would sometimes go to the wharf to do part-time jobs, thinking that the Wang family's aunt and sons often work there, so it seems that there is a connection.

Today, I heard what Wei Meili said, so something must have happened when the two came back at this time.

"I heard from Aunt Wang that there was a banditry in the upper reaches of the Jinlan River. A few days ago, many boats going north were robbed, and the bodyguards and merchants who accompanied the boats also died, and they were thrown into the water. Drifting down the Jinlan River... corpses were found near several piers along the coast, causing panic!"

"Ah, those water bandits kill people and steal money!"

Mei Berry swallowed the soup. For the first time in her two lives, this major criminal case seemed to be so close to them.

"That's right, and this water bandit comes and goes without a trace, and I don't know where it is active.

Now it is said that it is the upper reaches outside our Lihu Town.So the piers to the north of Lihu Lake have been closed recently, and it is said that they will search along the river!No, Aunt Wang's two sons also came back because there was no work on the pier. "

"Is this such a big deal?"

Mei Berry held the bowl and racked her brains trying to figure out what she had read. This kind of thing is not mentioned in the original text, but Mei Berry really doesn't have much impression!
Thinking of the problem of not reading novels carefully before, Mei Berry wanted to go back and grab her collar and shouted, "You have to take a closer look!"

"hiss!"

Suddenly, Mei Berry put down the bowl and stood up abruptly.

"What's the matter?" The husband and wife quickly asked after seeing their daughter's startled appearance.

"Ah, it's alright."

Mei Berry came to her senses and realized that she seemed to be too excited, so she sat down silently and drank the sand soup with her head buried in her head.

She just remembered that when the hero and the heroine met for the first time in the original text, was it because the hero seemed to have encountered some catastrophe and was seriously injured and was rescued by the heroine?
Is it here?

 In the next chapter, there will be important characters from the original novel~
  After a round of PK line pressing, I don't know whether to be happy or a little sad hahahahahaha, forget it, it's a good thing, I still have to be happy.

  One more round of recommendation is always good.

  The sand soup, we have salty ones here, but we have also seen sweet ones, that is, the kind with some fermented glutinous rice, brown sugar, etc., some are called "egg fermented glutinous rice" or "egg water"?
  As for whether it is called "Shatang", it is also a transliteration here.

  "sha" soup, seems to be called "shen" soup in the north?Hahahaha, when I was in college, it was called "sa" soup when the eggs were boiled in boiling water.

  Later, I found that the methods are similar, but the taste is a problem. Sometimes minced meat, fungus and dried shreds are added to the salty mouth, and coriander and black pepper are also added at the end.

  Do any cuties have similar delicacies in their hometown?Let's share together~
