Chapter 22 Thank you for your help
Wash the sweet potatoes, cut them into pieces, cook the sweet potato rice with the rice, and then mix the noodles with corn flour and white flour to make the steamed buns of Erhe noodles.

Xiao Yunfan saw the brother and sister busy in the kitchen, but he couldn't get in, so he asked curiously, "Why do you live halfway up the mountain?"

"Because we were abandoned by the family." Xia Chan spread her hands helplessly, but she was not sad because her life was really comfortable now. If they lived with the people in the old house, their brother and sister would probably not be able to eat a piece of meat.

Afterwards, Xia Chan told Xiao Yunfan about her family's and Xia Qi's experiences. She was not trying to win Xiao Yunfan's sympathy, but just wanted Xiao Yunfan to know that it was a coincidence that they lived here, and she hoped that he would not misunderstand them.

Her parents were not looking for anything on the mountain. After all, no one knew what was on the mountain.

After hearing the experiences of their brothers and sisters, Xiao Yunfan felt as if his heart was being grabbed by someone, throbbing with pain. He looked at the strong and stubborn Xia Chan, his eyes full of heartache, "Does the village not care about you?"

"Does it matter if we can live to be this old?" Xia Chan turned to look at Xiao Yunfan. She didn't want anyone to wrongly accuse the village. This time she lost the qualification to be evaluated at the end of the year. She was already very sorry, but she couldn't let others misunderstand the village again. , "As long as the village doesn't let the best ones harm us, it will be the greatest help. After all, we are located in a mountainous area with lots of wild vegetables in the spring, wild fruits in the summer, and nuts in the autumn, so we won't starve to death no matter what."

Hearing what she said, Xiao Yunfan felt even more distressed. That man, how could he be willing to hurt such a good girl.

It’s really like waterlogging and drought. Some people are not satisfied with having a partner and want to find other people. Some people can’t even find a partner.

After work at noon, Xia Bin, Jin Pengfei, and Jin Pengyuan came back. They were surprised to see a stranger at home. Xia Chan introduced them, "Brother, this is Xiao Yunfan, Captain Xiao, who is here to help us." Commander Xiao, who handled Wang Zhisen's matter, if it weren't for Commander Xiao, this matter would not have ended so easily." Then he introduced Xiao Yunfan, "Captain Xiao, these are my eldest brother Jin Pengfei and San. Brother Xia Bin and fourth brother Jin Pengyuan.”

When several people heard that it was Captain Xiao who was handling this matter, they were all happy, "Captain Xiao, thank you for your help, otherwise ordinary people like us would have to be bullied to death by the Wang family."

Jin Pengyuan said angrily, "Even if I change my mind, I still want us to die. I don't know how there can be such a vicious man in this world."

Xiao Yunfan coughed uncomfortably, "Hello everyone, I'm Xiao Yunfan, just call me by my name."

He doesn't understand and can't say anything about emotional matters, so it's hard for him to express any opinions.

"Lunch is already ready. Let's eat quickly. Captain Xiao is working here. Time is precious and we can't waste it any longer." Xia Chan said hurriedly, fearing that she would waste Xiao Yunfan's time.

After that, everyone brought the food to the table. The staple food was sweet potato rice and whole-grain steamed buns. The dishes included fried bacon with wild celery, braised pork sausage with potatoes, egg soup, spicy dried fish, and a dish of fried sweet potato tips.

Summer cicada pinched the sweet potatoes from the sweet potato field, pinching only the tenderest parts.

After the autumn harvest, the sweet potatoes in their yard will also be dug, so pinching the sweet potato leaves at this time will not affect the growth of the sweet potatoes. After all, the sweet potatoes are already mature, and it doesn’t matter whether they have leaves or not. Although there are not many dishes today, the portions are large. Each dish is a full pot, which can make everyone eat enough.

Xiao Yunfan felt that his brother and sister must have given away all the meat for a year, and he felt a little sorry for a moment. He should not have agreed to their proposal to eat and cooked all the good things for him. What would they do in the future?
He is on a mission now and doesn't have anything with him. He doesn't know when the next meeting will be. It seems that he will buy something and send it to him when he returns to express his gratitude.

They can't let their brothers and sisters suffer.

With the strength of the crowd, all the food on the table was wiped out, and even the buns that were prepared for preparation were all eaten. It was rare for Xiao Yunfan to eat such a rich dish, and he accidentally overate it, fearing that others would I thought he was too edible, so I subconsciously turned my head to look at everyone, and felt relieved when I saw that no one paid too much attention to him.

But Xia Chan didn't pay attention to him, which made him a little disappointed.

After dinner, Xiao Yunfan said goodbye. His brothers washed the dishes and took water to go to work. Xia Chan closed the courtyard door, walked into the hotel suite, set the alarm clock on her mobile phone, and then went to the soft and comfortable place. I fell down on the big bed and took a nap.

As soon as she woke up, she went to the creek again and continued her previous activities. She couldn't stop making money. After all, she wanted to lead her brothers to live a good life, but she was more cautious now because she was afraid that someone would Appear out of nowhere or be seen.

After working hard for more than half a month, I finally collected all the food at the end of October. The weather was also very good. It didn’t rain much, except for a few light rains. It dried quickly and did not cause any damage to the food. What impact.

But this is the north, where we only plant one season a year. When the grain harvest is over, it means that the long cat winter is coming, so everyone is happy, even those who have lost a lot of weight because of the autumn harvest are also full of expectations. .

After the grain was harvested and dried, it was time to hand over the public grain. Since there were no tractors in the village, the grain could only be delivered by oxcarts and manpower. Almost all the strong laborers in the village were mobilized, and they set out in the middle of the night to line up to hand over the public grain.

Xia Chan's brothers were all strong laborers with full work points, so they naturally went there. After they went out, Xia Chan locked the courtyard door from the inside, returned to the room, and slipped into the hotel suite to sleep in the cage. Set an alarm clock.

Although most of the people in the village are honest people, there are always a few who are not friendly enough. Her brothers are not at home, and she is the only sick person at home. What if someone who is not afraid of death climbs over the courtyard wall and comes in?
It doesn't matter if her things are stolen, but if she is bullied, how will she survive in this age where men and women are on guard against each other?
So in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, she slept directly in the hotel suite and waited until daytime the next day to come out. Anyway, the queue to hand in food was long and she wouldn't be able to get back for more than half a day.

Xia Chan slept until about ten o'clock in the morning, then got up contentedly. After washing up in the hotel room, eating something, she came out. Then she went to the kitchen to cook lunch so that her brothers could eat it immediately when they came back. Serve hot meals.

Xia Chan took the basket and was about to go out when she suddenly heard a knock on the door. She knew it wasn't her brothers or the children who cooperated with her in the village, so she asked worriedly, "Who is it?"
