A family of three goes through the ages, not being a saint and not helping the poor

"Lingling, are you guys going to pick grass for pigs?"

"No, Mom, please help me get a basket out, and pour a glass of water for Brother Dahe and the others."

"Okay." After saying that, Meng Qiuping first went to get a basket for Chu Yiling, and then went to the kitchen to pour water.

When she poured the water and returned to the yard, she saw Chu Yiling and the others dividing the peaches. But weren't the number of peaches a little too many?

They couldn't have disturbed the peach den, otherwise how could they have picked so many peaches.

"Brother Dahe, my family is small, and these two baskets of peaches are enough for my family to eat. You can take the rest home."

"That won't work. Your two baskets of peaches are only half a basket at most. You'll be at a disadvantage if you divide them like this."

"But these peaches are overripe and won't keep well. Even if you give me more, I can't finish them."

"Then we three brothers will take advantage of you this time. We will give you more fruits next time when we pick other fruits."

"it is good."

"Then we'll go home first, and we'll pick up vegetable leaves together tomorrow."

"Wait, I'll pour you some water, drink some and then go back."

"Thank you, Aunt Qiu Ping."

"You're welcome. Drink up. The water is just the right temperature."

When the three brothers of the Chu family heard what Meng Qiuping said, they picked up their cups and started drinking water. When they took the first sip of water, they found that the water they drank was actually sugar water.

Aunt Qiuping is so nice to them.

It seems that they have to treat Lingling better in the future, otherwise they would be sorry for Aunt Qiuping's sweet talk.

Chu Anshan returned home at around seven o'clock in the evening after a tiring day, and saw Chu Yiling and Meng Qiuping sitting in the yard, fanning themselves with palm-leaf fans.

He asked them, "Why don't you go back to the house? Sitting in the yard will only attract mosquitoes."

"It's too stuffy in the house. It's more comfortable to sit in the yard."

"Aren't you afraid of mosquitoes?"

"No worries, because Lingling and I went to the river and dug up some mosquito repellent grass and planted it in the yard. We also sprayed some floral water, so basically no mosquitoes bit us.

Let’s not talk about this for now. Why did you get off work so late today? "

"It was all because of that group of educated youth. They were so lazy during the daytime work that they couldn't even harvest half an acre of vegetables after a whole day's work. The village chief was almost pissed off by them.

As a result, the village chief and I stayed in the field and watched them harvest the vegetables. Only after they had harvested all the vegetables in the field did the village chief let them go home. "

"Thank you for your hard work. Lingling and I have left some food for you. Do you want to take a shower or eat first?"

"eat first."

When Chu Yiling heard Chu Anshan's words, she stood up and walked into the main room, took out the food they had left for Chu Anshan from the space and put it on the table.

"Did you cook today?"

"Yeah, we can't just keep the fire going for bath water. It was fine a while ago because everyone ate from the same pot and no one would notice if we were cooking.

But now it’s not possible, so my mom and I used the loofahs we changed yesterday to make loofah egg drop soup.”

"You are very thoughtful. If possible, you can make larger meals in the future and store the extra food in the space."

"Why do this?"

"Of course it's because winter is coming soon. The coldest winter in Northeast China can reach minus 30 to 40 degrees Celsius. You will definitely not want to cook by then.

So we need to prepare some extra food and store it in the space before winter comes.”

Chu Yiling couldn't help but hiss after hearing what Chu Anshan said. She only knew that the winter in Northeast China was very cold, but she never thought it would be this cold.

She suddenly became a little worried about whether she could survive this winter, because she was really afraid of the cold. She couldn't stand temperatures a few degrees below zero, let alone thirty or forty degrees below zero.

Thinking of this, she quickly started looking for things to keep warm in the mall.
