Yan Xia called him several times in his mind, but there was no response from the system. He probably hadn't come back yet.

Forget it, let's just live with it. She has a great advantage, that is, she has a good attitude.

While planning for the future, he walked towards the end of the village. The scenery on the road changed from low houses to a large farmland.

The ruined temple where Yan Xia lives is at the entrance of the village, while the back of Baihua Village is backed by two mountains, one high and one low.

On the lower mountain, many villagers usually go up the mountain to dig for mushrooms and wild vegetables. There is also a bamboo forest at the foot of the mountain, as well as various flowers, grasses and wild fruits. It is rich in products. Even in the early morning, you can see people looking for something on the mountain. Occasionally, there are rabbits, pheasants and the like. If you are lucky, you can catch them as a tooth festival.

In spring and summer, the entire mountain is covered with colorful flowers, which is so beautiful that the name of Baihua Village comes from this.

But no one dares to go to that high mountain.

It is said that there are tigers and wolves there, and some villagers have seen big snakes as thick as tree trunks. A hunter once came to Baihua Village and made a living by hunting.

Just after he took his two sons into the mountains for the first time, they didn't come back for ten days. His ex, Zhengli, had the courage to call a group of people to search for them, but they only found three heads with no skin or flesh on them.

The thick white bones seemed to warn the villagers not to break into this place.

Sure enough, no one dared to set foot on this high mountain from then on.

Even at the foot of the mountain, no one came to open up wasteland for farming. The land was obviously very fertile.

Maybe they were afraid of wild beasts coming down the mountain?

At this time, Yan Xia felt that she was close to the truth.

The situation here was better than she imagined. After her inspection, she went back and happened to meet two children returning with large and small bags.

"Why did you take so many things? Are you ransacking your Aunt Zhao's house?" Yan Xia's true temperament was revealed after getting along with her all morning. There was no sense of seriousness in the morning. She was joking to her children.

"Mom, Aunt Zhao said that we are short of a lot of things. Her land has been sown and there is no need for these farm tools for the time being. Let us take them back and use them first. We are not in a hurry to return them to her. Aunt Zhao confiscated the bacon and said we should keep it for eating. , and also gave me some corn seeds, and said, Mom, you must open up wasteland and plant it when the time comes. Oh, by the way, there are still pots and pans, and I also got a few pairs of chopsticks. If my brother and I hadn't stopped us, Aunt Zhao would have I really want to evacuate the house. She is so kind, mother~ How should we repay her? How about my brother and I dig up some pigweed after work every day and send it to her? Aunt Zhao’s family happens to have three pigs. Woolen cloth."

Osmanthus's round eyes were piercing, and they slightly arched as she spoke. Unfortunately, her face was skinny and her body was extremely thin. If she had gained twenty kilograms, she would definitely be the most beautiful girl in all directions.

"Okay, I'll listen to you. Mom's Guihua is already a big girl. Mom supports your idea. Let's go and take your things home first."

"Well! Mom, let's go home!" Osmanthus was extremely happy.

Even if she can only live in this ruined temple in the future, she still feels very happy.

Because that’s where my mother is.

Back in the temple, Guihua and Jin Lu put down the things in their hands, and Jin Fu also happened to be back.

He also picked up some cornmeal buns.

It was probably given by Li Zheng.

Yan Xia looked through it and found a set of farm tools, a casserole, a few bowls and chopsticks, two wooden basins, three wooden plates, some corn seeds, two handfuls of green vegetables and a small half bag of brown rice.

This favor was really owed to Dafa. She didn't expect Aunt Zhao to be such a nice person.

In modern times, where can you find such a good neighbor? I remember when she was locked at home by her parents, leaning on the window and crying for help. The neighbor next door, Aunt Zhang, was just watching the joke, saying that there was no point in going to college, why not go to work Supporting the family, he said while staring at her and laughing with gloating.

But it is clear that Aunt Zhang’s son has to repeat his studies after failing the college entrance examination. How could she not know the importance of going to college?

Yan Xia was moved to death by this comparison.

"Boss, you and Jin Lu will finish your work tomorrow and go to the mountains to cut firewood. Each of you will get a bundle and deliver it to your Aunt Zhao's house every three days. Do you remember? You must keep this kindness in your heart. Without Aunt Zhao, Our family still doesn’t know what to do. Osmanthus, you and Wintersweet, too. When you’re not busy, go dig some pigweed and send it over. When your mother has some money, you can return the favor. Come on, pack your things. , one person takes a farm tool and goes to open up wasteland with my mother, and then comes back at noon to cook."

After speaking, Yan Xia took the lead in picking up the hoe and walked out, followed by her children one by one.

Only Jin Lu was slow.

"Jin Lu, what are you doing, kid?" Yan Xia walked more than ten meters away. When she turned around, she found her third son standing still outside the temple gate, tinkering with something unknown in his hands.

"Here, mother, you'll be ready soon."

Jin Lu sped up and caught up quickly.

"Mom, when I left in the morning, I took the iron lock from the utility room with me in my pocket. Hehe, it was just right to lock the door of the ruined temple and save our things from being stolen by thieves."

The silly boy touched the back of his head, fearing that Yan Xia would scold him.

"Well done, my dear son. Your mother and I have worked hard for so many years and we must get some interest back. It's a pity. I don't know where this damn old woman hid her money. I heard that your father had a pension. At that time I didn’t notice how much it was, but it’s a pity, if I could get this money back, you two brothers’ wives would be settled.”

Yan Xia didn't scold him. She preferred this smart and clever child to the honest and responsible child. She didn't take anything from the Chen family for nothing.

As for Chen Shouguo's silver, it was indeed true, but the Chen Li family took possession of the silver and refused to let it go. The original owner did not even know the amount in his memory.

Hey, life is so confusing.

"Mom, I know! Grandma, no, that old woman loves to hide money under the bed. She dug a hole there. When I was a child, I wanted to steal snacks in her room. Who knew she came back suddenly, so I I hid under the bed and happened to touch it, but I didn't dare to steal it for fear that the old woman would beat me." Lamei said excitedly.

"Although your damn grandma is not good to us, you can't think of stealing. You have grown up. If you are caught stealing, your hands will be cut off. It doesn't matter. We will make more money later. We don't care about her. , Mom, it’s just a pity that your father is dead and the money hasn’t been spent on your own children. Forget it, let’s not talk about him and leave quickly, there is plenty of work in the fields.”

Yan Xia had never given birth to children but had a few great sons. Yan Xia had no idea how to educate them.

I'm afraid that if I talk too much, some older children will develop a rebellious mentality.

Fortunately, this was ancient times, and looking at Wintersweet's expression, she knew she was scared.

"Mom, I don't steal. I definitely don't steal. I don't want to have my hand chopped off. Mom, where are we going to open up wasteland?" Lamei was really frightened. She shrank her shoulders and changed the subject.

"Let's go to the bottom of the mountain. The land there is quite fertile. Let's plant two acres of land first. The seeds Aunt Zhao gave us will probably be enough. After plowing the land, I will make some compost piles."
