Reborn farming life

Chapter 3 The Aunt Next Door

Hey, I saw the article that you have dearly collected, thank you very much, and send a new chapter~ I hope you like it! !
The day after breakfast is completely bright, and the sun is estimated to be around [-]:[-] in the morning (don't ask me how I saw it, in fact, I don't know, so don't worry about it).He washed his hands and wiped his mouth for Tuan Tuan, then cleaned the dishes and put them away, picked up Tuan Tuan, who was full of food, and went to the house for "treasure hunting".Let’s start with the Westinghouse, put Tuantuan on the bed and start searching for the belongings at home. Although I know there won’t be many, I still have to look for it, otherwise I won’t let Tuantuan and I drink the northwest wind for a penny!
All the cabinets and boxes in the room where things can be stored are locked. I don’t know where this body has hidden the keys. Looking through the small drawer of the dressing table, there are only two flowers piled up with cloth and a wooden comb.Look under the bed, and then look behind the boxes and cabinets, but there is no sign of the key.

Tuantuan looked at her sister tossing and turning, her eyes full of doubts as she walked up and down. "Sister, what are you doing?" Xiao Tuantuan tilted her head and looked at her sister.

"Ah! Be good, my sister will look for the keys to this cabinet and the box again. Wait until my sister finds the money to buy you delicious food, be good~" You continued to search without looking back, I couldn't believe it when I asked I can't find it so far.

Tuantuan tilted his head and thought for a while, "Sister, sister, Tuantuan knows, Tuantuan knows."

"Huh? Tuantuan, do you know?" I thought that Tuantuan was so young, his sister wouldn't tell him these things, but little Rouqiu really knew. "Where did you tell my sister?"

"Sister, hug~hug~, Kang Kang", the little meatball on the bed twisted its small body and reached out to hug.Holding Tuantuan and walking to the east room, Tuantuan struggled to get on the kang, and put him on the kang.I saw Xiao Tuantuan waving limbs like lotus root joints and moving quickly on the kang—climbed to the side of the kang cabinet at the corner of the kang, sat there, patted the mat under the kang cabinet and called: "Sister, sister, this, this !"

Knowing what Tuantuan meant, I immediately took off my shoes and climbed onto the kang, moved the kang cabinet, and raised the mat. Sure enough, there was a hole inside, and a wooden box that was two fingers long and one finger wide was stuck there.He took out the box, kissed Tuan Tuan, and suddenly Tuan Tuan started giggling.Open the box, there are more than a dozen copper coins, two keys and a thing held in a red cloth.

Open the red cloth and inside is a silver longevity lock, with the words "Longevity and Hundred Years" written on one side and the word "Li Yu" on the other.I don't know if this is mine or Tuantuan's. I don't care, let's open the cabinet and box first.Let Tuan Tuan hold the box, and I carried Tuan Tuan to the West Room. There was no way, this body couldn't hold Tuan Tuan with one hand.

First take the key to open the cabinet. The cabinet has two floors, and the bottom layer is men's clothes, which should be the clothes of Tuantuan Daddy.There are several pieces of women's clothing on the upper floor, which must belong to Tuantuan Niang.There was a blue-gray cloth bag in the middle of the clothes. When I saw this cloth bag, my eyes lit up. It must be money, it must be money.I couldn't wait to open it, and there was indeed money inside, but what was disappointing was that there was no yellow and white thing in fantasy, just a large bunch of copper coins, which were quite heavy, but I didn't know how much they were and what I could buy.

Putting the cloth bag and the box together and opening the box, there are three quilts in the box, two old ones and one new one, plus two pillowcases.As I continued to look down, there was indeed a red cloth bag. There were three pieces of broken silver and a small silver ingot in the cloth bag. If you weigh it with your hands, it should be one tael of broken silver and five taels of small silver ingots.I thought in my heart that the money should be enough for a while, but winter is coming soon, I don’t know if it’s cold here, so I need to prepare more cotton clothes, some carbon, and food for the winter.In short, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea cost money for everything.I don't know if the money is enough, alas, I still have to find a way to make some money.

In addition to the silver, there are two silver hairpins. The style is not very good, and the workmanship is not fine enough, but it is obviously well preserved.I also found a silver lock in my bag that was the same as the one I found just now. It also said "Longevity Hundred Years" on one side and "Li Moen" on the other side. This longevity lock is much newer than the one just now.If there is no accident, "Li Yu" should be my body and my name, and "Li Moen" is Tuantuan's name.Although the name is a bit vulgar, it is better than flowers and grasses.Thinking of my name as Li Hua gave me a chill.shaking~~
Now let’s count all the property of Tuantuan and me. A string of copper coins plus my own small treasury is a total of 230 taels, eight taels of silver, two silver locks, and two silver hairpins.Well, this is all our money. I don’t know how the purchasing power of the coins here is. I have to go to the market to ask the price, and then see if there is any way to make money. I can’t wait until the mountains are empty before trying to find a way.

Looking at all our property on the bed, I wrapped the silver lock, silver hairpin and eight taels of silver and put them in a small wooden box in my private room, and then put them back in the pit in the corner. The 230 coins were wrapped in cloth and locked in the kang cabinet in the east room, and the remaining 730 coins were divided into two equal parts and placed in the cabinet and box in the west room.Once the box is locked, the cabinet will not be locked, so it is convenient to take money.

I have always believed in a truth that all eggs should never be put in one basket, hehe! ! !

After putting all the money away, sitting on the bed with Tuantuan in his arms, he was thinking about how to find out the past of this family, how to go out and see what it was like outside, and just sat on the bed in a daze.The lovely Tuantuan was sitting in my arms playing with his fingers quietly.Just when I wanted to rush out for a walk regardless, there was a doorbell outside.

"Is Sister Yu there? Open the door for Auntie! Sister Yu~Sister Yu~" There was a knock on the door accompanied by a call.

If I was really sleepy, someone would send me a pillow, and finally someone came to let me inquire about the situation.He hurriedly picked up Tuan Tuan and walked out of the house, opened the door and secretly observed the aunt outside the door. She was about 40 years old, very fair, with big bright eyes and a kind smile on her face. She looked very easy to get along with.

I don't know how to address it, so I can only let people in vaguely, "Auntie is here, come in and sit down."

"Hey, let's not go into the house, just sit in the yard." Let people into the yard, close the door, and sit down under the persimmon tree.

"I feel sorry for Sister Yu, why have you lost weight again? Don't blame Aunt Liu for talking too much. Your mother has been gone for more than a month, so don't be sad anymore, or you won't feel at ease when your mother leaves. Besides You still have Tuantuan to take care of, and you siblings will depend on each other in the future, and you have to take care of yourself for him, otherwise, if you have someone good or bad, how will you let Tuantuan, who is only two years old, live! You say yes Isn't it? Hey, it's so pitiful, your mother fled here back then and married your father, an only son, but now she doesn't even have any relatives who can help you. Life will be hard for you two siblings in the future!" Liu My aunt took my hand to comfort me.

With his head down, Nuonuo nodded, secretly sorting out the information he heard in his heart.This aunt's surname is Liu, and my name is indeed Li Yu. My mother passed away a month ago, and there are only two siblings left in my family, and I don't have any relatives here.This way is not bad, I am not afraid that people will see the flaws, but in this era, those who are lonely and widowed should guard against villains and bad guys.

This Aunt Liu is also enthusiastic and able to talk, she took my hand and continued to chat. "Oh, God is short-sighted. Your father is such a good and capable person, why did he fall from the mountain when your mother gave birth? Our Liu Family Village belongs to your father who is the most capable. He goes up the mountain to hunt and goes to the field Doing farm work, he is the top leader! He is also enthusiastic. If the neighbors asked him to help with something, he never said no. Later, he married your mother and worked hard to make money for the family. Look at this blue brick and tile house, it was the only one in the village at that time. What a pity!"

It turned out to be like this, no wonder the conditions at home are still very good, it turned out that it was all thanks to the father, what a pity.

Aunt Liu's voice dropped as she spoke, with a slight choke. "Hey, your mother is also a good woman. She is a husband and a child, and the care at home and outside the house. If it weren't for hearing the news that your father has gone, she gave birth prematurely and hurt her mind during confinement. She wouldn't have messed up her body." It’s so weak, so it’s gone so early. It’s better to leave you two brothers and don’t know what to do!”

"Auntie, don't be sad, don't worry, I will take good care of my younger brother, and I will definitely not disappoint my parents!" Looking at Aunt Liu who was really sad for us, I could only comfort her in turn.I really want to thank her for letting me know a lot.

"Good boy, it's all my aunt's fault. You feel sorry for saying this. Okay, let's not talk about it. My aunt's house is right next to you. If you have something to do, just say hello. If you can do it, you will never refuse. We had a good relationship when your mother was alive, so don't see your aunt, she will definitely take care of you two for your mother." Aunt Liu patted my hand lightly and promised.

"Well, Auntie, I understand, we will have to take care of you as a sibling in the future. Auntie, please don't bother us."

"What did the child say? It's too late for my aunt to be happy. Well, here are a few eggs, a handful of vegetables and some stick noodles. My aunt's family is not rich, so I can only give you these. Don't be disgusted. "Speaking, he pushed a basket filled with eggs and green vegetables in front of me.

I hurriedly pushed it back, and declined: "How can this be done, how can it cost you so much, please take it back!"

"This child, why are you being polite to your aunt, unless you think the things your aunt gave are not good!?" Aunt Liu joked with a smile.

"Of course not, why would I dislike it? But." Aunt Liu stood up before I finished speaking, "Okay, put it away quickly, I'm for Tuantuan, not for you, time is not enough It's early and I'm going to cook for Uncle Wang. You should also cook for Tuantuan, it's almost noon, remember to rest well, don't be too sad, I'm leaving, don't send it off." After finishing speaking, I went out.

Looking at the vegetable basket on the table, I secretly decided that I, Li Yu, have received this love, and I will definitely repay this kind aunt in the future.From today onwards, I am Li Yu, and I want to live a good life again!
