Sloth's Home Fragrance of Rice Fields

Chapter 3 Aunt Li

Although it is the rainy season, the weather is still relatively warm. After the heavy rain, many birds are looking for food in the field. This is also the most troublesome thing for the villagers. Now is the time when the rice is mature, and the rice can be harvested in another month. These The birds couldn't be chased away, so they had to tie a scarecrow in the rice field, but these little birds were also very smart, and after a while, they all knew that these were dummies, and they stood arrogantly on the scarecrow and pecked fiercely.In this idyllic scenery, Li Yao took a deep breath, and the faint earthy smell made people feel more intimate.She also grew up in the countryside, and her parents opened a farm at the foot of the mountain. She and her grandma often delivered meals to their parents in this way, until her grandma suffered from dementia, and then she went to study in the city, and then there was another I have lost my career, so I seldom see such scenery again.

After walking for about two quarters of an hour, I saw Li Yao's parents-in-law and the others.

"Wow, there's something to eat!" When Chen Bao's family saw them, they quickly threw the hoe in their hands and snatched the basket loudly.

"Second brother, be careful, there is mushroom soup in it, don't spill it." Xing'er hurriedly said.

"It's like being reincarnated by a starving ghost~!" Chen Huang scolded, and turned to Xing'er, "Did you go up the mountain?"

"Well, my sister-in-law and I went, and there are wild vegetables at night." After all, I haven't eaten green vegetables for a long time, so Xing'er said happily.

But the other three people, including Chen Baojia who was about to gobble it up, all turned their eyes to Li Yao, apparently unable to believe that the legendary lazy girl would follow her up the mountain to pick wild vegetables.

Li Yao sighed helplessly, looked straight at her parents-in-law, and said, "Father, mother, I was ignorant before, and I figured it out. Now that I have married into the Chen family, I will do my best." After all, I am a member of the Chen family, and I should advance and retreat with the Chen family, I believe our family will get better and better."

Chen Shizhu looked at Li Yao's firm eyes for a while, and then nodded in relief.

The corners of Chen Huang's eyes were wet when she heard what her daughter-in-law said. The boss reluctantly married this daughter-in-law for the sake of the family. She and her wife knew that the boss was uncomfortable, and they also felt very sorry for the boss. Now it seems that the daughter-in-law is sensible now , I feel better at last.

Since the family has only three acres of dry land left, rice cannot be grown, and vegetables are not harvested this season, so the whole family planted these several acres of land with sweet potatoes.Looking at the half-planted sweet potato field, Li Yao felt powerless. There is still a whole cellar of sweet potatoes in the cellar at home, and there are piles of sweet potatoes under the beds in every room. Is there nothing else to grow?
Li Yao thought about it and asked, "Father, you can't finish eating so many sweet potatoes, why don't you plant something else?"

"There are no other good ones. I plan to save a piece of land and wait for another month or so for the rainy season to grow vegetables. This dry land can't grow rice, and can only grow sweet potatoes." Chen Shizhu also felt helpless.

After hearing this, Li Yao sighed again, if things go on like this, when will the days of food and clothing end?
Thinking of this kind of weather, Li Yao originally wanted to suggest to the elders to grow greenhouse vegetables, but then she thought, the rainy season is coming to an end, so growing greenhouse vegetables would be meaningless, so she gave up.

Li Yao and Xing'er also packed up the dishes and went home with Chen Bao's family. Before they reached the door of the house, they saw a woman in her 40s wearing a linen skirt with a basket in one hand and a hand in the other. Standing at the door of his house with a small cloth bag.

"Sister-in-law, it's your mother!" Chen Baojia noticed it first with sharp eyes.

Li Yao was taken aback for a moment, then followed Xing'er and the two to quicken their pace.

"Mother, why are you here?" Even though it was the first time she saw the original owner's mother after coming through, Li Yao was no stranger to it. Memories from the past flooded into her mind instantly, which only made Li Yao feel very cordial.

"Yao'er, are you in good health?! I just went to pray to the Bodhisattva two days ago, and it's really all right! Amitabha! Amitabha!!" If she wasn't holding something in her hand, Aunt Li would have clasped her hands together and bowed to the sky .

"aunt."

"Auntie." Myolie and Chen Baojia greeted Aunt Li one by one.

"Hehe...Xing'er and Bao's family are back too. Did you go to the field? Aunt Li looked at the basket in Xing'er's hand and asked, just wondering if her daughter also went to the field?

"Yes, aunt! Sister-in-law and Xing'er are going to deliver food to us!" Chen Baojia said with a smile, "Ma'am, let's go inside and talk."

After entering the room, after Li Yao put the things in her hands on the Eight Immortals table in the room, Aunt Li pulled her daughter over, touched here and there, "Is it really all right? Is there any other discomfort?"
