Chapter 50
Mrs. Liang looked at the plate of Kung Pao Chicken, and it was indeed so. "But you don't eat chicken very much on weekdays, why don't we eat rabbit meat, fish meat is also good, it's so tender, mother will pick you up, okay?"

Han Yiluo shook her head like a rattle, "It's okay, I want to eat diced chicken, I want to eat diced chicken!" In an instant, Han Yiluo roared that the emperor possessed him again, and the voice was really deafening.

In the end, Mrs. Liang carried Han Yiluo to the main room for dinner, and the turmoil subsided.

Looking at Liang's leaving back, Qiuyue shook her head when she remembered what happened at the dinner table just now.Thinking about it, these people are really pampered, and my little sister is only one and a half years old with them. She is so sensible and obedient at such a young age, and she is not picky about what she eats.

Qiuyue put a piece of rabbit meat into the Qiulin bowl, and another piece of steamed meat into the Qiuhe bowl. "Let's eat quickly, we have to go back later!" She didn't want to delay her siblings' interest in eating because of what happened just now.

Yi Chen swallowed a mouthful of food, and asked: "Why did you go back so soon? It's hard to come here, let's play for a few more days." It was too hasty to leave just now.

Qiuyue shook her head, and said worriedly: "Father is at home alone, if you don't take care of him at night, it won't work." How can you rest assured if you leave dad alone at home!

After Xiaomei and Muwen finished the plate of Kung Pao Chicken, they stared left and right at the dishes on the table, and pursed their lips in embarrassment, saying that there was nothing to eat.Then both of them put down their bowls and chopsticks and went to the main room.The two bowls of rice placed in front of them were almost untouched.

I don't know if I said "waste" at the dinner table.

After lunch, Mrs. Han didn't dare to stay any longer, so she resigned to Mrs. Yang.There is a distance between Hanjia Village and Luoshui Village.If you start late, you may have to fight in the dark.At that time, security issues cannot be guaranteed.

Everyone also knows the situation of Han's family, so they dare not stay longer.It's just that Mrs. Yang was really reluctant, so she grabbed Qiuhe with one hand and Qiulin with the other. "My mother is not a rigid person. If you can't leave, I won't stop you. If you are weak, Ah Yue and Ah Song, if you want to go back and help me, I won't say anything. It's just that these two little ones can't bear the weight of their shoulders." Let them stay here for a few more days if they can’t lift their hands. It’s okay to sleep with me, and it’s okay to sleep with Xiaoluo.”

Mrs. Yang has lived such an old age, and she still understands these people's sophistication.If this daughter married someone else, she was not just her daughter.More importantly, she is someone else's husband, someone else's mother.Now she has a family of her own to maintain.Now that the eldest son-in-law needs her, she can't domineeringly occupy other people's wives, even if she is her mother!

"Yes, yes, anyway, Alin and Ahe are too young to help, so just stay at our house for a few more days. In a few days, let his uncle send the two young ones back. Eldest sister, what do you think of this?" Eldest aunt Ye Shi also tried her best to persuade her.

These days, my mother is always talking about the eldest sister's family.Because the eldest brother-in-law's legs really couldn't move away.But these two little ones can stay, and it can be regarded as a miss of Quan Jiao's mother.

Han thought about it, but didn't insist anymore. "If that's the case, then let the two little bastards stay here. Si'er doesn't say anything, but these three are naughty, and I'm afraid it will cause trouble for you."

"Where is this talk, a family, where is there any trouble or not, I don't like to hear that big sister!"

In this way, these adults did not ask the wishes of their two little ones, so they decided happily.When Mother got into the bullock cart with her elder sister and elder brother, and told her brothers and sisters to be obedient and not to cause trouble, Qiulin suddenly felt betrayed.In fact, she really wanted to go back to the village with her mother, she missed her father and Ah Huang, and after all, she didn't get along with her grandma for too long, so she always felt uncomfortable.

After Mrs. Han left, Qiulin silently returned to the main room to warm up by the fire.The grown-ups sat by the fire and gossiped, and she listened without speaking.Qiuhe is a playful person, and soon became acquainted with a few children in the Han family village, and now he doesn't know where to go wild.

The two cousins ​​of the uncle's family are busy with the primary examination, so naturally they can't miss their homework.After eating, I went back to the west wing and read the book.The auntie's family left after lunch, and the room felt much cleaner without the noise of the two children.And Elio dozed off next to her mother's lap.

Seeing this, Mrs. Yang said, "Second daughter-in-law, let Xiao Luo go to sleep on the bed, I'm afraid she'll catch a cold if she sleeps like this. Let A Lin also go to sleep, this girl just sits here and doesn't say anything. Doze is coming."

Liang first carried Yiluo to the bed, and then came to hold Qiulin.After being reminded by grandma, Qiulin really felt a little sleepy.Then he was carried to the bed by the second aunt.

Mrs. Liang took off her shoes and clothes, covered her with a quilt carefully, rubbed Qiu Lin's cheeks, and said with a smile, "Go to sleep, I'll call you later when I eat."

Qiulin nodded obediently. This second aunt is as kind-hearted as the first aunt.It's just that she doesn't talk much.

Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Liang got up and left.

After Mrs. Liang left, Qiulin opened his eyes again and stared blankly at the top of the cloud tent for a while, wondering if Dad and Ah Huang were freezing or hungry at home.Thinking about it makes me feel sleepy.She closed her eyes again and fell into a deep sleep.

Qiu Lin slept soundly in this room, but Xia Yan in that room just had a good sleep, but when he woke up, he found that he and Xu Nanshan were the only ones at home.Where did the Han family go with the brothers and sisters of the Xu family?Xia Yan broke open the tightly closed door, and ran into the yard regardless of Xu Nanshan's scolding.

The cold wind howled in the yard, and the light snow was falling happily. The wind mixed with snowflakes rushed towards him, even though his body was covered with fluffy brown fur, he still felt extremely cold.He looked around, but couldn't see half a ghost.He ran around Xu's house and searched carefully, but still no one appeared!
Where are they going?Where did Qiulin go for a stroll?No, then what should he eat for lunch, is he waiting to be hungry?Xia Yan was a little bit about to cry but had no tears.

Fortunately, the Liu family next door had a kind heart and brought a big bowl of food over.Said that Han Shi asked her to take care of her before she left.Xia Yan finally had something to fill his stomach.

Near dusk, Han Shi and Qiuyue Qiusong finally came back.He turned left and right around the bullock cart, but in the end he didn't see the person he wanted to see, his heart was filled with joy as if it had been poured with cold water, and he became depressed.

During these days when Qiulin was not at home, Xia Yan couldn't eat well, and couldn't sleep well, and he always felt lost in his heart.Without Qiulin at home, there was no one to wash his dog's bowl. Looking at that dirty bowl, how could he have appetite?Without that person nagging in his ear, he only felt that he was weak and depressed.what happened to him?
One morning, Qiuyue called Ah Huang to eat, but saw him nestled in the haystack with a dazed expression. Could it be that he was ill?Qiuyue put down the dog bowl, walked over to touch his forehead, only felt a little cold, maybe he was frozen.It's a day of [-] now, but it's amazing.

Qiuyue rummaged through the cabinet to find the old clothes from before, and covered Ah Huang.

Around the afternoon, the snow outside the house finally stopped, but the wind was still blowing, as shrill as the roar of a tiger.

"Father and mother, I'm back!" To Xia Yan, this immature voice was nothing more than a ray of light in the dawn. This voice was all too familiar to him. It was Qiu Lin who had returned!
He jumped up, shook off the clothes covering his back, and ran out of the yard like a dog, with his brown tail upturned and wagging non-stop.Seeing that it was really Qiu Lin who came back, Xia Yan was overjoyed, someone finally washed his dog's bowl!Xia Yan circled around Qiulin several times, trying to grab Qiulin with his front paws, but Qiulin avoided him with a smile.

"It's really strange. Ah Huang didn't eat anything at home these days, and thought he was sick, but as soon as you came back, Ah Huang rushed out like something, which is strange!" Qiuyue looked puzzled. solution.

Qiulin smiled and scratched Ahuang's ears, "That's because Ahuang misses me, and I miss you too, Ahuang." Qiulin squatted down and hugged Ahuang with her small arms and hands.

To be honest, I really miss my family a little bit.Although there is no need to worry about food and lodging at grandma's house, after all, Qiulin has been with the Han family for a long time. In the past few months, she has really regarded them as relatives.I'll miss you after leaving for a few days.

Ah Huang yelled at Qiu Lin, not sure if he was refuting or something.Qiuyue said in a low voice: "Hey, Ah Huang, what are you doing, howling so stupidly? Third brother and little sister, how did you come back?"

Ah Huang was extremely sad, he was yelling, he was hungry, he wanted to eat!And... I miss her too!
Only then did Qiulin walk into the house, "Of course my uncle sent us back. He sent us to the entrance of the village, saying that he was busy preparing for spring plowing, so he left without staying."

After putting on Xu Nanshan's shoes, Mrs. Han pushed him out of the east wing. "Three and four, you're back, you're all exhausted, mother is going to make ginger soup for you."

When everyone gathered for dinner in the evening, Qiulin took two mouthfuls of rice and said casually, "Uncle said, Cousin Yiming and Cousin Yimo are going to the Tongsheng Examination, and after the Tongsheng Examination, there will be a rural examination. No matter how you pass the provincial examination, you can get a scholar, which is much better than crossing the river with the sun on your back all day long..." On the way back from his grandma's house, Qiulin kept thinking about this matter.Even if this farmer is working hard to plan food in the fields, how much money does he have in his hands all year round?So these peasant men put their hopes on their next generation, and don't want them to repeat their life like this again, but how to get rid of it, reading has become one of the ways out.

Qiu Song raised his eyes and glanced at Qiu Lin, then silently lowered his head, and ruthlessly pawed at the rice.

Seeing that no one answered, Qiulin continued: "Father and mother, our second and third brothers are also smart. The second brother knows most of the characters in the agricultural book that brother Shen Qing lent me. Learn a few more If it is a year, it may be a big prospect."

Xu Nanshan paused his chopsticks, thought for a while, and said in embarrassment: "Your second brother is among the best in school, but it's a pity... hey..."

Qiulin naturally knew what his father was worried about, and hurriedly hit the rails while it was hot: "Father, our family can still make some more money now. After a while, we will throw fish fry into the fish pond and raise silkworms. Our family's life will be sure." It will get better day by day. Dad, I can just do the housework with my eldest sister. Let the second and third brothers go to school."
