Rebirth: The whole family travels through time together: Fubao Koi is busy eating melons

After hearing this, Mrs. Guo readily agreed: "Everyone will have a share at dinner."

This statement immediately made everyone cheer, and everyone's face was filled with happy smiles.

Xu Liyun calculated silently in her mind that according to this distribution, each family could get about a backpack or a basket of dates, which would probably add up to more than a hundred kilograms.

"How many dates are left on the mountain?"

Xu Liyun asked Aunt Guo that she and her mother-in-law were also present when they were collecting wild vegetables today.

"There are still a lot left, and we have only picked less than half today."

Aunt Guo went on to say, "We will distribute the dates we picked today to everyone in the evening. Our main task tomorrow is to pick all the remaining dates and sell them. We will definitely be able to earn a lot of money."

When talking about the dates from the mountains, everyone's hearts were excited, as they were undoubtedly a great fortune.

Xu Liyun's eyes fell on the rabbits on the ground, and she estimated in her mind how fast the rabbits would reproduce: "Sister Guo, have most of the half-grown children in our village joined the logistics team to help?"

She remembered seeing the names of several little ones on the registration list.

"Well, almost all the children over the age of fifteen are doing logistics. I asked them to dig wild vegetables."

Mrs. Guo sighed and said, what else can a child of ten years old do besides these simple labors?

"How many are under twelve?"

Xu Liyun vaguely remembered that Aunt Guo’s grandson was also among them, and he was about the same age as Mingyi.

Mrs. Guo thought for a moment and replied, "About five or six. All of them come from poor families. If there is no other choice, who would want to let their children suffer so much at such a young age?"

Just like the ten-year-old boy from her second brother's family, who was still playing outside carefree at this moment.

"Then don't let these five or six children go up the mountain tomorrow," Xu Liyun suggested. They are too young, and it is really inconvenient for the adults to go up the mountain and take care of them.

"What can I do if I stay at home?"

Mrs. Guo was also very clear that there were not many wild vegetables around the village. After searching for them for several days, she found that they had almost all been cleared away.

If we don’t let the children go up the mountain, what else can they do if they stay in the village?

"We already have eight sheep in the village. We can't keep them locked up all the time. The grass in the fields is growing lushly now. It's better to let the children herd the sheep. It's better than climbing the mountain with the adults. It won't be a waste of effort. When herding the sheep, we can ask the forest patrollers to pay attention to where there are chickens and ducklings. In the future, we can let the children try to raise some small animals."

Although picking wild vegetables is easy, climbing the mountain twice a day is no joke. For these young children, herding sheep may be a better choice.

"It's indeed a reasonable suggestion. Okay, I'll start arranging it tomorrow."

The original fields of the village are very close to the residential area. In the past few days, spring is in the air and the tender green grass has quietly poked its head out. For the children, this is both a pleasure and an easy job while herding sheep. The sheep leisurely chew the delicious grass leaves while the children watch by the side. They can earn eight copper coins a day. Why not?

Raising chickens and ducks is almost an innate skill for rural children.

Now, whenever smoke rises from the village and it’s time for dinner in each household, the whole village becomes bustling and lively, as noisy as a small market.

Although there are still some elderly people and children who have not yet joined the labor group, Zhang Laoer has made it clear that those who do not work only need to pay a certain amount of food rations to the logistics department, and they can enjoy meals together during collective meal times.

Doing so not only solves the problem of adults having to rush home to cook for the elderly and children at home after get off work, but also frees up valuable space for tight schedules.

Thus, a warm and harmonious scene of the whole village dining together came into being.

As it approached dinner time, makeshift stoves began to blaze with flames, and the aroma of various dishes spread in the air. The tempting smell even attracted children playing in the distance and made them run back home.

Some parents joked that this way, they no longer have to search the village for their playful children to come home for dinner.

Before the meal officially started, Xu Liyun gently and carefully tugged at Zhang Laoer's collar and whispered, "Next time when Guo Jiajie and his friends come to the city, ask them to keep an eye out for chicken and ducklings and buy more. After the new house is built, they can sell them to the villagers or keep them themselves."

"Well, that's a good idea."

Zhang Laoer seemed to be thinking about something. Opening a place to raise chickens and ducks was undoubtedly a way to increase income, but the sales aspect still needed careful consideration.

Seeing that Xu Liyun seemed to have something else to say, he asked, "Is there anything else?"

"Find a chance later and bring Fu Jun over to the side so that we can have a casual chat."

Zhang Laoer looked at Xu Liyun in confusion, not understanding her intention for a moment.

Qi Yu is accompanied by two lively and lovely nieces. The three adults each have their own tasks, and the children are mainly taken care of by the eldest daughter. The eldest sister Qi and the two little girls are always present at the dining table.

Xu Liyun's gaze swept across Sister Qi, and her thoughts drifted to Fu Jun. How could Zhang Laoer not understand such subtle feelings?

"Hey, you wanna be a matchmaker?"

Since moving here, my wife's mood seems to have changed. In the past, she always tried to avoid trivial matters between neighbors as much as possible, and her words were polite but distant.

"Well, I just think they are a perfect match and they love each other. Why can't they be brave enough to be together? I think, no matter what others say, life is to satisfy yourself."

Isn’t it tiring to always live in the eyes of others?

When they first moved to Zhangjia Village, they were worried about the opinions of their fellow villagers, but that was just caution and adaptation at the beginning.

"I think you are too idle."

"Are you going or not?"

Xu Liyun glared at him pretending to be angry. Even if she was really free, what was wrong with that?

She longs to see perfection and doesn't want to have any regrets. Is there anything wrong with that?

"Go, go, go. Can't we go after dinner? Let's go."

As soon as his wife finished speaking, there was no reason for him to disobey.

He held his daughter in one hand and held Xu Liyun's hand in the other, and they blended into the bustling crowd together.

As for the son, he played wildly with the older kids all day long, while the father and son were busy with their own things.

Fortunately, Zhang Mingyi helped take care of him. Even during the busiest hours in the evening, he was able to keep his son properly at his side.

During dinner, Mr. Zhang was also present, so Mr. Zhang and his wife didn't have to worry too much.

After the meal, Zhang Laoer really took Fu Jun to a relatively quiet place to talk about the progress of the brick factory, so as to avoid being embarrassed by suddenly running out of topics.

"How is the tile production going? Although it is not urgent to use it now, it seems that the time to use it will soon be here."

"Don't worry, the tiles are already available, but I still want to improve them. I'm not very satisfied with the current product."

When he received the summons from Zhang Laoer, he expected to be asked about the tiles.
