Chapter 8

As soon as he entered the yard, Niu Niu flew over: "Auntie, my sister said you went to pick red bayberries? Did you pick them?"

Lu Yumin looked at his greedy face, nodded with a smile and said, "Do you see what's in this basket, Auntie?"

Niu Niu reached out and picked one up and put it in his mouth. As soon as he bit it, his face was all wrinkled: "Oh, aunt, why is this red bayberry so sour!"

Lu Yumin slapped him on the face and said: "Who told you that it was so delicious? You see, my sister is not as anxious as you! Is the one you ate not red, of course it is sour! Go in, auntie You wash the red ones and eat them!"

Yaya said excitedly: "Brother, I told Auntie to pick red bayberries!"

Lu Yumin pinched Yaya's small face and said, "My Yaya is smart! Knowing that Ermu and the others are going to pick red bayberries, I know that I will call you auntie. You are awesome!"

Yaya asked puzzledly: "Auntie, what is a stick?"

Niu Niu pouted at her and said, "I don't even know! A stick is a stick!"

"Pfft..." Lu Yumin was amused by Niu Niu's explanation: "Niu Niu is awesome!"

Yaya scratched her head and asked again: "Auntie, why am I a stick?"

Lu Yumin almost fainted from laughter!She said with a "hahaha" smile; "God, why is my girl so cute! Auntie tells you, this stick is not a stick!"

The two asked in unison: "What is that?"

Lu Yumin explained seriously: "Auntie said that Yaya is awesome! It means that Yaya is really capable, powerful, and smart!"

Yaya said excitedly: "Brother, Auntie said I'm great!"

Lu Yumin said: "Niuniu and Yaya are the best children!"

The three gathered around the wooden basin, picked out the big red ones and put them in the bowl, you put one in my mouth, and I put one in his mouth, the three of them laughed and laughed around the wooden basin, when Li Sanlin entered the door and saw Yes, it is such a joyous scene again!

Yaya was the first to discover Li Sanlin. She stood up and took two red bayberries, put them into the mouth of Li Sanlin who was squatting by the basin, and asked proudly: "Daddy, is it delicious?"

Li Sanlin smiled and touched his daughter's happy face. It's been a long time since I saw these two children so happy!He took the bowl from Niu Niu's hand and asked, "Where did you get the bayberry?"

Before Lu Yumin could reply, Niu Niu said, "Auntie went to the mountain to pick the food for us to eat!"

Li Sanlin asked in disbelief, "Do you dare to go up the mountain to pick bayberry?"

Lu Yumin said cautiously, "I went with my second sister-in-law and fifth aunt."

Li Sanlin looked at the green and red bayberries in the pot and said, "You can't eat this kind of bayberry after picking it! Don't pick this kind of bayberry in the future."

Lu Yumin thought bitterly: I never thought of asking others if they are tired!On the contrary, he can only point fingers and make irresponsible remarks!
Seeing that Lu Yumin didn't respond to him, Li Sanlin asked, "Didn't you hear that?"

Lu Yumin was a little annoyed by him: "I heard it!"

Li Sanlin looked at Lu Yumin who looked impatient and his voice was much louder in surprise and asked: "It seems that you don't know good people!"

Lu Yumin said, "Thank you for being such a good person!"

Li Sanlin was so amused by Lu Yumin's words that he almost laughed, but when he remembered that Lu Yumin had a man, he felt that he couldn't treat her well, so he said with a somber face, "It's up to you!"

The two children watched the two adults coming and going, and they didn't know what to do. Seeing Li Sanlin get up, Lu Yumin winked at them and said, "Auntie will make dried bayberry for you to eat. The dried bayberry can be eaten." Leave it for a long time, when you want to eat, Auntie will make it for you again!"

Niu Niu immediately asked excitedly: "Then when will there be red bayberries?"

Lu Yumin nodded affirmatively: "That's what you think!"

The two children clapped their hands together: "Great! My friends are going to die of hunger!"

Lu Yumin patted the two of them on the head and said, "Now we will keep it secret!"

The two stretched out their hands and said: "Secret!" Then they laughed "giggle"!

While Li Sanlin went to the vegetable field, Lu Yumin found a small wooden basin, sprinkled salt on the half-green and half-red bayberries, added a few handfuls of mint leaves, and began to soak them.

After dinner, Lu Yumin taught Wang Dafeng and Aunt Zhang to drown the red bayberries before going home to wash up.

When Lu Yumin returned to the room, she found that Li Sanlin was already lying on the bed waiting for him. Seeing his iron tower-like body, and thinking of his behavior the night before, Lu Yumin couldn't help shivering!

When Li Sanlin bullied his upper body, Lu Yumin looked at him pleadingly and said, "I'm really tired today, can you hurry up? I'm afraid I won't be able to take it anymore."

Hearing her tone, Li Sanlin saw that she was really scared, and without saying anything, turned over and got off the bed, looked at her deeply for a while and said: "Don't work so hard in the future! Don't refuse me again! I will let you off today!" After speaking, he went back to sleep on the bamboo bed!
Lu Yumin was stunned!This man went crazy again today?Otherwise, why are you so easy to talk about?Thinking of last night, when she slapped him desperately, he didn't stop, but even more violently, until he passed out and didn't know when he stopped!Today he is so easy to talk to!Does this mean that he still likes this predecessor a little bit?

Lu Yumin rolled her eyes and secretly smiled!After all, she is not a real little girl. In order to make her life easier in this family, she thinks she has to show weakness!Besides, she is not a bold person, and she doesn't have the legendary martial arts. If she confronts this bull-like person head-on, she is afraid that she will kill herself!

After picking red bayberry for three days, Lu Yumin filled the two large basins at home. Seeing that it was almost ready for drying, she finally found a drying mat in the utility room.

The drying rack was a bit high, she couldn't put it on it, at this moment Li Sanlin came back, today is the Dragon Boat Festival, the meat will be sold out before noon, as soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw this small woman, carrying a big bed The drying mat is desperately put on the drying rack.

I really can't see it!Li Sanlin hung the meat on the rack with a dark face, then reached out to take the mat from Lu Yumin, and threw them on it with a flick of his arm, Lu Yumin was dumbfounded!
Seeing her stupid look, Li Sanlin asked in a bad tone: "Why are you so surprised? What are you going to do with such a big scene?"

Lu Yumin bit her lip and said, "I want to dry red bayberry."

Li Sanlin asked again: "It's the black bayberry that was drowned by you? Is it still edible?"

Lu Yumin glanced at him and then murmured, "Why should I expose it if I can't eat it? Of course I can eat it! You look down on it, and it's not for you to eat!"

Li Sanlin looked at Lu Yumin who was crying alone, and asked, "Do you want to move the pot out?"

Lu Yumin nodded and said, "But it's not in the basin anymore. I've filtered the water and it's in the basket now."

Li Sanlin ignored her, took the meat into the kitchen and put it away, and then helped her move the bayberry out: "Just put it in the sun?"

Lu Yumin hurriedly said: "Wait, I have to wipe it! This is something to eat, this mat is so dirty, how can it just be left in the sun like this."

Li Sanlin said: "How dirty is this? It is used to dry shredded sweet potatoes and shredded radish every year. I haven't seen people eating dead people!"

Lu Yumin glanced at Li Sanlin as if she couldn't stand you, and hurriedly wiped the mat with a wet cotton towel before letting Li Sanlin pour the red bayberry on it.

Li Sanlin fell down and said, "It won't rot even if it's dried in the sun. What else is there to eat? All that's left are bones!"

Lu Yumin felt that she couldn't explain clearly to an ancient man, so she didn't bother to speak, but Li Sanlin quit, this woman is getting bolder and bolder!I haven't fixed her for the past two days, it seems that her bones are itchy!

The weather was getting hotter and hotter. Lu Yumin didn't expect Li Sanlin to come back at noon. She cooked a lot of porridge in the morning and didn't plan to make lunch, but a big man came back, and the porridge wasn't enough to fill his stomach!
In the evening, Lu Yumin was going to her mother-in-law's house for the festival. She really didn't want to make lunch. She found a little flour in the jar, mixed them, and made a bowl of hand-rolled noodles for the three of them. This was her past life. Mother-in-law, learned craftsmanship.

After the noodles were boiled in cold water, she cut a little bit of fat and deep-fried them into oil residue, put the shredded radish in the pan and stir-fried, then put some water wine and soy sauce, then put the water to boil, then added chili sauce to the green vegetables, and ate. The two little guys were sweating profusely, shouting delicious!

Lu Yumin knew that Li Sanlin had looked at her several times, and she didn't dare to look at him for fear of causing him to go crazy again!
Li Sanlin watched Lu Yumin dodge his gaze a few times, put down the bowl and said, "I'll go help my mother cook in a while, the two younger sisters are too busy tonight."

Lu Yumin looked at him hesitantly, and Li Sanlin said again: "My mother is a little too talkative, don't be afraid of her. She is not in good health, and now her younger sister does all the cooking, and the fifth child has not yet married. You Go over and help them."

Lu Yumin said "Yes": "I know. I won't mess with her, and she is your mother anyway."

Li Sanlin moved his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn’t say anything, but simply confessed: “Let’s go there in a while. There are a lot of vegetables in the garden. We will bring some over in a while. The more people there are, the more food will be consumed.”

Lu Yumin asked hesitantly: "Okay. I'm going to dry some dried vegetables when there are too many vegetables to eat. I want to ask you, can you bring two catties of sugar back tomorrow?"

Li Sanlin was stunned: "There is no sugar in the cupboard? I saw half a bowl of it a few days ago. Did these two little bastards steal it again?"

Lu Yumin asked weakly: "They are little bastards, so what are you?"

Li Sanlin was taken aback by Lu Yumin's question, and then laughed. This little woman's answer is really interesting. Her answer to you always makes people want to laugh.

Seeing that Li Sanlin wasn't angry, Lu Yumin said, "They didn't eat that candy secretly. They put some in the cooking these days, and now there isn't much more!"

Seeing her explanation, Li Sanlin asked, "It's a hot day, will it melt if I buy too much?"

Lu Yumin said: "I want to put some sugar in the dried red bayberry before drying it."

Li Sanlin said: "Won't the dried red bayberry go bad?"

Lu Yumin said: "Just put a little bit, and make it a few times, so that it won't be sour. When you want to eat it, you have to steam it before eating."

Li Sanlin said: "It's really troublesome!"

Lu Yumin muttered, "Children usually don't have any snacks to eat! They always stand aside and drool when they see other children have delicious food!"

Li Sanlin took another deep look at Lu Yumin and said, "Let's go, bring the dishes, let's go there.
