Chen Yunyou was led by his wife into the bedroom he had lived in before his marriage. The furnishings in the room were very simple, with a wooden bed, a small square table, and a small box made of bamboo strips on the table.

Song Xile asked Chen Yunyou to sit down beside the bed, "You take a nap first, I'll call you when it's time to eat!"

Chen Yunyou shook his head, "I'm not tired!" He just wanted to take a look at where his wife used to live and wanted to get to know her better!

After a whole morning of hard work, how could a weak person not be tired?

Song Xile coaxed him gently, "Even if you're not tired, close your eyes and rest for a while. I'll take you to the back mountain in the afternoon. I used to love going to that mountain to look for wild vegetables! I'll take you for a walk after lunch!"

After hearing this, Chen Yunyou stopped insisting and leaned against the head of the bed obediently.

Song Xile shook out the quilt and covered him with it, then gave him a few more instructions before turning around and leaving the kitchen.

The quilt covering him was soft and fluffy, with a smell of sunshine. Chen Yunyou felt at peace, and he fell asleep even though he had no desire to sleep!

When Song Xile walked into the yard, he smelled a strong fragrance.

When I walked into the kitchen, I saw two little kids standing at their mother's feet, looking at her eagerly, swallowing their saliva from time to time! They were staring at the chicken soup in the pot with all their heart and eyes!

"Sister-in-law, is there anything I can help you with?"

Xu, who was cutting bacon, urged repeatedly: "The kitchen is full of fumes, and we need you there, Big Head, Second Head, take your aunt out."

The two little guys obediently took their aunt's hand and pulled her out!

Song Xile had no choice but to let the two children drag her out of the kitchen, and asked with a smile: "Is the maltose delicious?"

The two nodded like garlic.

Ertou scratched his sparse head in distress.

"My uncle only gave us two each, and said he would save the rest for us tomorrow! Aunt, do you think my uncle would eat them secretly?"

The older ones looked at their aunt eagerly, hoping that she could give them a reassuring answer.

Looking at the innocent and eager eyes of the two children, Song Xile felt like his heart was about to melt into a pool of water.

She used to have no feelings for children, but the two skinny children in front of her made her feel sad.

Song Xile asked in a low voice: "Do you still want to eat candy?"

The two nodded without hesitation.

Just like a magic trick, a handful of candies suddenly appeared in Song Xile's clenched hands.

Song Xile opened the package and put a piece of candy in each of the two people's mouths.

The two of them widened their eyes instantly and couldn't help but exclaim at the same time.

Song Xile made a gesture to keep quiet, and the two little guys immediately understood and covered their mouths with their hands. It looked ridiculous no matter how you looked at it!

Song Xile peeled off the remaining candy wrappers and put a few more in everyone's small pockets!

"This is a secret between you and your aunt. You can't tell anyone else, or you won't have any candy to eat anymore!"

The two little guys covered their mouths, stared with clear eyes, and nodded rapidly!

Song Xile rubbed the two children's heads with relief, "Go play!"

The two children immediately ran away happily like birds.

That’s right, just now Song Xile used his consciousness to buy a handful of candies in the system.

Only two points are required.

Song Xile felt it was worth it to be able to buy happiness for two children!

Seeing his daughter standing stupidly in the corner, Father Song said, "Xile, come and sit down!"

Song Xile turned around and saw his father and elder brother sitting under the eaves, weaving bamboo baskets.

Song Xile walked over to sit next to his father and brother, picked up a small, exquisitely woven bamboo basket and asked, "Dad, is the bamboo basket business good now?"

Father Song bit the old pipe in his mouth and sighed.

"It's not like before. Wait until market day and let your eldest and second brothers go to the market to try their luck! If you can earn some money for the family, that's great. If you can't sell it, it's just a waste of effort."

Thinking of the long-lasting drought mentioned in the book, Song Xile couldn't help but ask, "Dad, is the wheat growing well in the field now?"

When this matter was mentioned, Song's father's expression became more solemn. "Let's wait and see. If it still doesn't rain in a few days, I'll ask your brothers to fetch water to irrigate the fields!"

Although wheat has a certain degree of drought resistance, it still needs to consume water during its critical growth periods, such as the heading and filling stages!

Once the water supply is not timely, the growth of the plants will be hindered, the ears will be small and the grains will be poorly mature, which is directly related to this year's harvest!

"Dad, it's March or April now, you should plant some dry crops, like soybeans or something!"

"That's my plan too. Looking at the situation this year, I'm afraid it won't be a good year. If the wheat doesn't grow well, we can plant more beans. Although beans are not as valuable as fine grains, at least they can fill our stomachs!"

Song Xile nodded in agreement, but in fact he had already planned to purchase drought-resistant bean seeds from the system.

At that time, secretly mix the drought-resistant bean seeds into the grain seeds. It is very convenient to operate and not easy to be detected!

Song Cheng came out of the kitchen with bowls and chopsticks, "Dad, the meal is ready, we can eat now!"

Father Song stood up, dusted himself off, and said to his daughter, "Let's eat. Go call Yun You out to eat!"

Song Xile nodded and went back to the house to look for people. The brothers of the Song family served the food and set the table. They were very efficient in their work.

Soon, the food was placed on the table.

Fried bacon, steamed eggs, stir-fried vegetables, stir-fried spinach, and stewed chicken soup. The dishes are not rich, but this is the best food the Song family can come up with.

The whole family sat together, the young couple sat in one place, and a chicken leg was placed in the bowl in front of each of them!

"Ertou, eat the chicken leg!" After saying that, Song Xile put the chicken leg in the bowl into the baby's bowl.

Chen Yunyou also took the chicken leg out of the bowl and said, "Give it to the child!"

The two nephews sat obediently in the arms of their parents, looking at them eagerly. Seeing that their mother did not nod, the two children, although eager, did not move!

Seeing that his sister-in-law was about to give up the chicken, Song Xile looked at his father for help, "Okay, since it's given to the children, let them eat it! Let Xile take two chickens back later!"

Father Song said, "Please start eating. It's just some simple food. Yun You, take a look and see if it suits your taste!"

When his name was called, Chen Yunyou straightened his back and replied, "These are good!"

There was a harmonious atmosphere at the dinner table. Two children were holding chicken legs in their hands, their mouths were greasy, and they squinted their eyes happily while eating.

Chen Yunyou was reserved at the beginning, but later he gradually relaxed when he saw that the Song family treated him in a friendly and easy-going manner. The meal ended in a relaxing atmosphere!
