Parents are busy farming

Wang Chuanren had just finished serving the wine when Lu Zili came outside the door.

"Is Zili here? Sit down quickly and let's have a drink together." Ye Yongwang said.

Lu Zili smiled and sat between Pang Chao and Zhang Gaoyi.

Mrs. Feng put on a pair of bowls and chopsticks and placed them in front of Lu Zili.

Zhang Gaoyi served Lu Zi with wine.

After everyone toasted again, Lu Zili filled the glasses for everyone.

After that, the job of filling the wine fell on Ye Zining and Ye Zimeng.

At the end of the song, everyone dispersed, and everyone was only slightly tipsy.

Wang Tingfeng's family did not go back, but rested in the small courtyard.

Lu Zili walked out of the door of Zifen's house and said to Zifen behind him, "Let's take a walk?"

Zi Zifen asked: "Is it a matter in the store or a family matter?"

"It's about Hongguo." Lu Zili replied.

Zi Zifen nodded. If it was a matter in the store, she would definitely delay it.

But when she heard that it was Lu Hongguo's matter, she thought, 'Maybe Lu Zili didn't want her to come up with any ideas, so he just wanted to find someone to talk to! ’

Lu Zili told the story about Erlang of the Jiang family, and then said: "The Erlang of the Jiang family came to our door in person two days ago and told my grandparents and my mother about the Jiang family's decision."

Ye Zifen asked: "What's their attitude?"

Lu Zili lowered his head and said, "My mother is very satisfied with this marriage. My grandparents directly said that they would not interfere with my granddaughter's marriage."

"What do Lu Hongguo think?" Zi Zifen asked.

Lu Hongguo has always put Zi Zifen in a relatively hostile position, but Zi Zifen has never regarded her as an opponent. She thinks that they are not the same kind of people.

Lu Zili said: "I can see that Hongguo is already attracted."

"Then what are you still struggling with?" Zi Zifen asked.

Lu Zili said worriedly: "You don't know Hongguo's temper. I'm afraid that she will live a miserable life in the future."

Zi Zifen said: "No matter who she marries into, her temper will be irritating if she doesn't change her temper. So let her do what she wants!"

"Oh! I just thought that if she married into a simpler family, there wouldn't be so many messy things, right?"

Lu Zili was more concerned about Lu Hongguo's marriage than Lu Yongfu.

Zi Zifen said seriously: "She may not be satisfied with the simple family you think. Marriage is also a period of spiritual practice, and the Jiang family doesn't sound like an unreasonable family. So as long as Lu Hongguo lives a good life with Erlang of the Jiang family, her future life will be better. It won’t be bad.”

How could Lu Zili not understand? Besides, he was quite optimistic about Erlang Jiang.

"Okay! I'm just a little worried that's why I'm telling you so much. It's not too early now, so you should go and have a rest!"

It was exactly as Ye Zifen thought, he just wanted to seek some comfort from him.

When Ye Zifen returned home, Mrs. Feng had already burned the kang.

"A few days ago, when we were making paper, we didn't have to burn the kang at all, and the room was very hot. The fire wall is so good that it doesn't dissipate heat all day long." After Mrs. Feng added a thick piece of firewood, she went into the house to talk to Ye Zifen.

"That's right! When I was repairing it, I felt it was expensive, but I didn't know it was really warm in winter." Ye Zifen said with emotion while lying on the bed.

Mrs. Feng came over and tucked him in, "Do you need me to watch you sleep?"

Ye Zifen nodded, "I'm not a child, so there's no problem sleeping by myself. But I want you to sleep with me tonight."

It feels so good to be cared for like a child.

She used to sleep alone, but now that Mrs. Feng said this, she thought: 'She must miss her, but she doesn't know how to express it. ’

Sure enough, Mrs. Feng couldn't hide the smile on her face after hearing this.

Ye Zifen moved into the bed first and patted the side, "You come up too."

Mrs. Feng took off her coat and lay next to Ye Zifen.

Neither of them spoke, and soon Ye Zifen fell asleep.

Mrs. Feng didn't sleep, but she just tilted her head quietly and looked at Ye Zifen's sleeping face.

My heart seemed to melt.

When Zhang Gaoyi came home during the day, the Zhang family was busy grinding soy milk.

Old man Zhang pushed the stone mill by himself, using all his strength, while Zhang Qiuyue and Zhang Xiayue took turns putting soaked beans into the small opening of the millstone.

"I'll do it!" Zhang Gaoyi said, taking the putter from Old Man Zhang and continuing to push the stone mill.

When Zhang Qiuyue saw her elder brother coming back, she immediately handed the spoon in her hand to Old Man Zhang.

Greeting Zhang Qiuyue: "Let's go, go out and play for a while, I'm going to be exhausted."

Zhang Qiuyue was no longer willing to do it. She threw the spoon into the barrel and ran out with Zhang Qiuyue.

Both of them were wearing newly bought cotton-padded jackets made of floral cloth.

Although Zhang Gaoyi was a little surprised that they were doing work in new clothes, he couldn't say anything since they had already given them the things.

Old man Zhang saw that his son was pushing quickly, and he felt relieved that he could do it.

"I'm leaving this time and can't come back until spring, so I won't be at home during the Chinese New Year this year." Zhang Gaoyi suddenly said.

"Not coming back?" Old Man Zhang asked uncertainly.

Zhang Gaoyi explained: "Well, I plan to build a house on the beach, and I need someone to look at the polished stones. I am the best candidate."

Old man Zhang didn't say anything. Although he was used to his son not coming back all year round, he still felt uncomfortable when he heard that he wouldn't come back during the New Year.

The Chinese New Year is a time for family reunions, but suddenly one person is missing, alas!

"In addition, I will ask the eldest brother-in-law to come with me, so let the eldest sister live at home these days! With the eldest sister here, at least you can have a hot meal." Zhang Gaoyi continued.

This time Zhang Gaoyi came back and found that Zhang Wang still hadn't come back. He felt a little unhappy, but it was just unhappy.

He couldn't make Mrs. Zhang Wang forget or ignore her biological son, even if Mrs. Zhang Wang didn't take much care of him.

"What are you going to do with your brother-in-law?" Old Man Zhang asked curiously.

Zhang Gaoyi said: "There is some carpentry work at the seaside. My eldest brother-in-law can earn more money by going there. In addition, the caravan has prepared enough food, which can also relieve the pressure on my eldest sister's family."

He didn't tell the truth to avoid being jealous.

"Okay! It's just that it's cold and the little girl is still young. See if you can find a better car to pick your sister up!" said the old man.

Zhang Gaoyi nodded, "I will take care of this matter, you don't have to worry."

He originally wanted to use the Ye family's donkey cart to pick up his sister and bring back her important possessions.

"When the eldest sister comes back, prepare a room for her alone. She has a child. Don't let Xia Yue and Qiu Yue enter her room if they have something to do." Zhang Gaoyi reminded.

"Okay! I know what you are worried about, and I still know about this." Old man Zhang put the last spoonful of soybeans into the millstone.

Then scrape the bean juice in the groove on the edge of the millstone into the wooden barrel below.
