We agreed to farm, why do you go to the palace every day?

Hearing Luo Yu say that it was time to eat, Luo Ci picked up the food with chopsticks and ate it. It had smelled delicious when her sister was making the noodles just now, and it tasted even better when she put it in her mouth. She swallowed it like a madman for a moment.

Seeing that Luo Ci was eating in a hurry, Luo Yu was afraid that she would choke, so she smiled and said again: "Ah Ci, eat slowly, sister will make more delicious food for you in the future!"

It's not Luo Ci's fault for wolfing down her food, she eats a little fast herself. Lard is very precious here, especially in the countryside, where not every household can raise pigs. Sometimes they can't even kill a pig for several years. If you have some lard, you just put a little bit in when cooking, just for a little flavor.

Luo Yu's family had even less, and everything they had was snatched away by her grandmother. This was something they had saved for a long time and kept secretly. Especially since their parents left, the eldest family only had dry rice for one meal, and only a little rice soup every day. Now they had noodles with lard, which was a delicacy.

Other three-year-old children need to be fed and carried when going out. Luo Ci now eats by herself and walks when she can. She doesn’t cry or make trouble. She knows that she can’t help her sister, so she just stays aside quietly and doesn’t make things worse for her sister. It is said that “children from poor families grow up early”, and this famous saying is well-founded.

Luo Yu looked at Luo Ci, his eyes full of heartache. When his parents left, Luo Yu fainted from being beaten and scolded by his grandmother, otherwise he would not have been able to come here. If he had not come, Luo Yu did not dare to think about Luo Ci's future, but she came, and from now on she would be his closest family member here.

After Luo Yu finished eating, she saw Luo Ci still eating in small bites. She was not in a hurry and accompanied her slowly. She just needed to wait for her to finish eating and then clean up the house.

After a while, Luo Ci also finished eating. Luo Yu wiped the corners of her mouth with her sleeve and said, "Ah Ci, you can help your sister clean up the new home. Although it will only be the two of us in the future, we still have to live our lives."

Luo Ci smiled, nodded, and followed Luo Yu.

Luo Yu was just busy asking his uncles and aunts to move the things in, and he didn't have time to take a look before he went to cook. It was only noon after dinner, so he had time to look at the "new home". This house is divided into 5 compartments, the middle one is the main room, two side rooms, a kitchen, and the remaining room is a tool room.

Although the house showed signs of being unoccupied for a long time, the wood used in the house was still very good, much stronger than her previous home. What satisfied her most was that the fence of this house was high enough, made of wood and stone, very strong, and you couldn't see inside from the outside, which was safe enough. The yard was also spacious, and she had a plan in mind.

There aren't many things I moved from my home, and most of them are broken and cannot be used for burning.

First he went into the main room, which had a separate compartment for the room, and a wooden bed inside, which was a little dusty. Luo Yu walked in and stepped on the bed, which was solid enough, so there was no need to move his old stuff in, not to mention that it would be hard to move it by himself, and it was not as good as the one left by others.

Then Luo Yu went into each room to check. There were beds in the rooms, and there was a thick layer of dust on them, so he had to clean them thoroughly. When he came out, he saw the water in the wooden barrel, which was used for cooking and drinking. He had to use his own wooden barrel, as well as the bowls and chopsticks he had just eaten. He took Luo Ci out and went to the river not far from the house to fetch a bucket of water. When he got home, Luo Yu put the large bathtub in the yard and went back and forth several times before it was full.

Looking back, Luo Ci told Luo Yu that she didn't need to follow her after she went to fetch water. It wasn't far and she would be back in a few minutes. But Luo Ci insisted on following her, even if she had to follow slowly behind her, just to watch her sister's figure. After going back and forth several times, Luo Yu finished fetching water and she was already dozing off in the corner.

I got up so early in the morning and was worried about myself for a long time. I was tired now. Seeing the bed that had been moved over, Luo Yu spread some quilts on it, moved it to a slightly cooler place, and put Luo Ci on it to sleep. The room was full of dust, and I had to clean it up. It was good for her to fall asleep.

After arranging Luo Ci and closing the door outside, she carried the wooden bucket and walked into the house. She first sprinkled water in every room and looked at the spider webs on the higher beams. Luo Yu tied the broom to a longer stick. If it was still too high, Luo Yu stepped on the bed and swung it hard. After going back and forth several times, her hands were about to cramp, and she finally wiped off a lot of dust and spider webs. After sweeping the house, Luo Yu sprinkled some more water and came out to see Luo Ci still sleeping, with no signs of waking up.

Luo Yu went out with a sickle, and soon she cut a few bamboos. On the way back, she had washed the bamboos in the river, and now the bamboo leaves were very clean. Just now, the house was just swept with a broom, and it was still necessary to use bamboo to sweep it again, so that it would be cleaner. So she tied the bamboos like a broom, went back to the house and swept back and forth for a long time, and now it looked much cleaner than before.

After cleaning every room again, including the tool room, Luo Yu stopped. He moved some of the furnishings in the room, arranged them a little, and then walked out of the house, ready to put the things he brought from home.

Luo Yu came out and picked and chose. Fortunately, the clothes and quilt were still usable, although they were quite old. But he didn't have money to buy new ones now, so he could only make do with them and change them later.

After some tidying up, the sun was about to set. Luo Ci woke up and sat on the bed outside in a daze. She was a little dazed for a moment. When she saw Luo Yu coming out, she opened her little hands and asked for a hug.

Luo Yu came over and put all the things she had moved into the house. She also cleaned up a side room and put a quilt in it. The other room was empty because she didn't have any extra quilts to put in there. The tools were also placed in the tool room. She didn't hug Luo Ci, but said, "Ah Ci, wake up. Sister has cleaned the house and you are covered in dust. Wait here. There is water in the basin. I will go and boil some hot water for you to take a bath."

Without waiting for Luo Ci's response, Luo Yu went to the kitchen with the unused firewood she had just sorted out. With the experience from lunch, Luo Yu quickly lit the fire, poured water into the pot, and went to fetch water with a wooden bucket. After a while, the water was boiled and filled with hot water to go to the tool room.

When she was packing, she had already found two sets of clothes and put the bathtub directly in the tool room. Now she just needed to carry hot water in to take a bath. She originally thought that the weather was warm and she would bathe Luo Ci in the yard, but it was late in the day and the wind was still a little cold. In this era, catching a cold and fever could be fatal, so it was better to bathe in the house.
