Yan Zi couldn't help laughing, "It's a little ugly, but people can't be good at everything, wouldn't that make them gods? Besides, it doesn't affect the taste of the food if it's wrapped like this."

There was a creaking sound coming from the backpack, and the four of them looked at it together.

"How did I forget it."

Nier quickly took the chicken out of the basket.

"I'm lucky today. I picked up another one."

Niu Li rubbed his hands on his clothes without thinking too much, then hugged the chicken and walked out of the kitchen.

The third brother thought that the chicken didn't look like a wild chicken, but more like one that was raised at home. "Nier, did you really pick up that chicken?"

Yan Zi also looked at Ni'er with some suspicion, wondering how could she pick up chickens one by one.

Ni'er heard the suspicion in their voices and said while making dumplings: "If this chicken wasn't picked up, where else could it have come from? Besides, have you forgotten that I'm a lucky star?"

The third brother slapped his head and said, "Yes, our Ni'er is a lucky star."

The three men watched Niu Li who was busy feeding the chickens in the yard. He did not leave after feeding them. He just stared at the chickens. The chickens were sleepy and closed their eyes, but Niu Li still did not move.

When the dumplings were cooked, Nier came out of the kitchen and said, "Brother, it's time to eat, don't look at me. We are eating dumplings today."

Niu Li quickly got up and ran straight into the house.

There was a plate on the kang with steaming dumplings on it.

Nier picked up one, blew on it, and bit down half of it. Juice actually flowed out of it. The crispy oil residue matched with the chewy mushrooms and refreshing wild vegetables. The taste was very good and not greasy at all.

Although I have eaten meat for a few days, I still think that dumplings with this filling are really delicious.

None of the four people spoke, they were all concentrating on enjoying the delicious food.

Niu Li swallowed the dumplings in his mouth and said, "This is so delicious."

Yan Zi picked up one for Niu Li and one for Ni Er. "You guys eat more. This is the first time I've eaten dumplings like this. They're really delicious."

The third brother picked up one and put it in his mouth. This time he was in a hurry and forgot to blow on it. Although the outer skin was not hot, the filling inside was still hot. He blew on it for a long time before stopping.

Yan Zi took out all the noodles. After this meal, everyone's stomachs were full. Niu Li lay on the kang and groaned because he was too full.

After the meal, there was still a lot of work to do, so several people started to get busy again. It was not until the moon was hanging in the middle of the sky that they sorted out the goods to be delivered to the restaurant tomorrow.

Ni'er and Niu Li were still children after all. They were exhausted and too sleepy to open their eyes. The third child held one in each hand and put the two children on the kang.

Yan Zi lowered her voice and said, "I cut the material today. Come, let me measure it for you to see if it fits you."

The third brother also lowered his voice, "Don't be so hard-working when you are pregnant. Just take your time making the clothes. There is no rush."

"It's not hard. This is nothing." Yan Zi put the material on Lao San. "Well, although I didn't measure your size, it still fits you well."

The third brother chuckled, "You know what's going on."

Yan Zi put the material away and said, "Go to bed quickly. You have to get up early tomorrow morning."

After saying that, he lay down, and soon the sound of even breathing could be heard.

At this time, Niu Meiyu was unable to sleep due to the moonlight. She tossed and turned on the kang, her mind full of thoughts about her family's cold attitude towards her because she brought back five kilograms of grain. It was all Niu Xiaoni's fault.

They are obviously newly made clothes, but I get angry when I see them now. No, I must go again tomorrow, bring back another five kilograms of food, and make a new set of clothes.

Shuanzi next to her started talking in his sleep. Niu Meiyu thought she had turned over and woken her son up, so she was startled. But when she heard that it was just his sleep talking, she felt relieved.

He stood quietly by until his son stopped making any sound.

Niu Meiyu was dressed very simply this time, just like an ordinary peasant woman. She promised her mother-in-law that she would bring back another five kilograms of grain this time, then got on the creaking ox cart and headed for Niujia Village, unaware that they had already separated.

After getting off the car, I saw Niu Fugui playing with some kids at the entrance of the village, "Fuguier~"

Niu Fugui raised his head and looked in the direction of the voice, "Aunt~"

After saying goodbye to his playmates, he walked home with his aunt.

After entering the door, I ran straight to grandma's room, "Aunt is here~"

The old lady was just checking how much money she had at home when she heard footsteps outside and quickly locked the cupboard.

When he heard that it was his daughter coming, he wanted to go out to greet her happily, but then he thought that she might have brought food, so he stopped.

Meiyu saw that the room where her third brother used to live was already filled with miscellaneous items and felt a little strange, "Mom, where are my third brother and his family?"

The old lady couldn't help but grab Meiyu's arms and look at her. Seeing that the person looked good, she felt relieved and said, "We have separated."

Meiyu was shocked to hear this. Doesn't that mean she won't get any food?

When my mother was in charge of money and food, they came to borrow money themselves. Even if they felt unhappy, they didn't dare to say it directly.

After the family was divided, those all belonged to my brothers. My sister-in-law would definitely not agree. Fortunately, I had promised my mother-in-law before I left. This time I was really embarrassed. A trace of embarrassment flashed across my face, but I quickly returned to normal.

"Mom, why did we split up the family? Was it my third brother who proposed it? He seemed quite honest before, but he actually took advantage of mom's presence to propose splitting up the family. It's really hard to judge a person by his appearance." Meiyu helped the old lady sit on the kang, feeling very dissatisfied.

The old lady knew she was in the wrong and could not explain herself clearly.

Meiyu knew her mother's personality and roughly guessed what was going on.

Just chatting was not the purpose of his coming here. Seeing that the old lady had not responded, he simply said, "Mom, I came here to borrow food this time. Not much, only five kilograms, please take a look..."

The old lady slapped Meiyu on the arm and said, "I knew it. Every time you come here, it's not good. This grain already belongs to your brother. It has nothing to do with me. If you want to borrow it, ask your brother."

Meiyu covered the place where she was hit just now. She didn't expect her mother to use so much force. Tears came out, "It hurts~"

The old lady gave him a glare and said, "Even though it hurts, you still don't learn from it."

Meiyu came out of the house in a huff and ran into the second son's wife who was coming back from doing laundry.

He quickly put away his sad face and put on a flattering look, "Second sister-in-law~"

The second son's wife looked at the debt collector who came to her house again and responded unhappily. It was because of her that the old lady had to borrow food and her children could only eat watery porridge every day.

"Why are you free today?"

Meiyu felt the other party's unfriendliness. In the past, she would have just walked away in disdain, having never suffered such humiliation. However, she had to ask the other party for help, so she had to endure it. She thought that if she said something nice, maybe the other party would lend her some food for the sake of the family's face.
