Reborn Brother Farming Story

As long as the family grows wild raspberries, they will take the time to go to the mountains to withdraw money. There are people like Liu Wushu who have a large family. The wild raspberries are well served, plus extra rewards. Add up all kinds of miscellaneous things, not only enough for the New Year , there is still a lot of silver left.

"This year, we will add new clothes to the family, so we will go to the town to buy some materials." Uncle Liu said cheerfully.

Naturally, some young brothers and men in the family went to the town, pulled the cloth, and then came back to cut it. They worked day and night without rest, rushing out new clothes, trying them one by one, and changing the inappropriate parts again.

Even people who didn’t get new clothes to wear in previous years, and didn’t necessarily have a full meal during the Chinese New Year, this year they moved home with big pieces of meat, and ordered soft steamed buns on the mountain. big basket.

There is also a granary at home, which is full of long-lasting and fine grain, meat is hung under the eaves, and there are new clothes in the cabinet. This year is really good like never before.

"Brother Qing, is it convenient now?" Just after the morning, someone came to the door again.

Liu Yaoqing also just got up, breakfast is still on the table.

The child has long been asked by brother Zhezi to take him to Li's side. The room is very clean now, but there are still small bowls and spoons for children on the table, and milky white goat's milk in the small pot. The lingering milky smell.

On the table were tomato sauce, a few slices of soft bread, poached eggs, soft fried meat slices, and a small casserole with delicious porridge inside.

Just this way of eating is something that people have never seen or heard before, and it is really an eye-opener.

Liu Yaoqing pinched a piece of bread, sandwiched sliced ​​tomatoes and cucumbers, took off the egg yolk, put only the egg white, spread some tomato sauce on it, and ate it with her hands.

"The money for the wild raspberries?" Seeing Brother Zhezi scooping up porridge for her, Liu Yaoqing hurriedly told Brother Zhezi to stop.

"Yeah, I've been busy the past few days, so I don't have time to go up the mountain." The man who spoke said with a naive smile, "The mother of the child is born again, and I have to go back to her mother's house for a few days. The work will be delayed."

"It's all in the account, it's all right." Liu Yaoqing put down the bread and wiped her hands, picked up the account book, looked at it, and wrote a note with charcoal pen.

Brother Zhezi over there took out the silver and handed it to the man, washed his hands again, and then continued to eat.

Serve the wild raspberries meticulously for a whole year, and usually don't withdraw money for nothing important, just wait for the end of the year to get it all at once.It is heavy and very heavy, you don't need to look to know that there is a lot, the man grinned happily, he didn't care to talk to Liu Yaoqing, and hurried away with the money.

After dinner, Liu Yaoqing first went to see the child at Li's side.

The three little ones didn't sleep, they were moaning and moaning on the small bed, their faces were so tender that water could be squeezed out, and their little hands were so soft that they could still see five small dimples.

Mrs. Li put down the most noisy child and said, "All the children can eat, Brother Qing, go and buy some sheep for preparation."

"Success." Liu Yaoqing nodded.

As the child grows up and drinks more and more milk, he will have to eat complementary food in a few months, and the appetite will be larger by then.There is not one in the family, but there will be three at once. Thinking about it, it is a big head.

"I'm going to work outside." Liu Yaoqing stared at Liu Doudou as if she heard him speak, turned her head this way, then flattened her mouth, and then broke out into a loud cry.

Brother Zhezi hurried forward, picked up the child, touched it, and said, "It's peeing."

"I'll take the diaper." Li Shi turned around and took the diaper, and asked Brother Zhezi to change it for Liu Doudou.

Liu Yaoqing went outside in a hurry, and Bai Niangxian seemed to be crying in his ears, he sighed, if the three children were taken care of by him, they would definitely not be able to make it through.

The closer the Chinese New Year gets, the busier everyone gets.

Because Liu Sangen still had to work in the pancake workshop and had to go to the dining hall to learn how to read at night, he had to stay up at home in the middle of the night and sew two clothes, his own and Liu Ergen's.

"I've made an agreement with them." Liu Ergen said when he came back from the outside.

"Success, let's start working when Brother Qing pays his wages at the end of the year." Liu Sangen bit off the end of the thread and said with sparkling eyes, "We won't buy anything for the Chinese New Year this year, save the wages, and wait until next year. Brother, what do you think? Sample?"

"Okay." Liu Ergen had no other opinion.

A few days before the Chinese New Year, all the stewards called their subordinates to line up to go to the warehouse.

Liu Yaoqing stood at the door of the warehouse, and everyone who walked in front of him reported their names, and Liu Yaoqing made a record on the list.Brother Zhezi took out a heavy corn husk box.

"This is this year's welfare, everyone has it, don't worry." Liu Yaoqing explained with a smile, "After the welfare is paid, the wages will be settled. On the 27th, it will be the end of work on the mountain, and it will be the same as last year. The remaining will be paid three times. wages."

"Aw..." Both brother and man couldn't help cheering.

Liu Sangen also got a box woven from corn husks, which was heavy, and it was very difficult for him to hold it with his small arms and legs, so when he reached the gate, he walked aside and waited.

After a while Liu Ergen also came out, also holding the box, and together with Liu Sangen, the two brothers went home together.

As soon as he arrived at home, Liu Sangen couldn't wait to open the box and said, "Brother Qing gave me a lot of things last year. I thought I wouldn't give them this year. I didn't expect that there were some of us who haven't worked for a full year."

"There are people who work on the mountain." Liu Ergen said, "I heard what Su Da said, so I'm sure."

"Pancakes and steamed buns, these are all from our pancake workshop, and they are the latest ones. Brother, you smell delicious. These weigh about six catties." Liu Sangen happily took out the pancakes and steamed buns, and then said in surprise: " There is also a large bag of popcorn, which we will use to treat the children during the Chinese New Year. Braised peanuts, tomato sauce, strawberry jam. Ah, there is a lot of potato flour, this is what we eat on New Year’s Day, and we can just buy some meat."

Tomato sauce and strawberry jam are not packed in jars, but Liu Yaoqing separates them in small bamboo tubes. The quantity is not much, but you can eat rare ones during the Chinese New Year.

Fresh tomatoes and cucumbers on the mountain are the rarest year after year. Of course, fresh strawberries are even rarer. Even if Liu Yaoqing wanted to distribute these things as welfare, the quantity would not be enough.

However, Liu Sangen and Liu Ergen have two copies, and there are enough things that they won't be needed for a year.

The same is true for other families, save a little, like Liu Sangen's house, buy a little meat, add things from the mountain, and the year will pass.

After receiving the benefits, the next step is to settle the wages.

Liu Yaoqing seldom leaves the house, she stays in the house and waits with the account book, as long as someone comes, it will be settled, whether there is a lot of money or silver, no more, no less can always give a just right amount.

Liu Sangen and Liu Ergen received their wages early, hid them heavily in their arms, and hurried home.

A few nights ago, Liu Ergen took the time to wait for the man he agreed to, and everyone started working without saying a word, helping to renovate Liu Sangen's house.

There are many people, and it seems that there is a lot of work, but the toss was really over a year ago.

Originally, the two brothers were poor, so they had nothing to eat after eating this meal. They planted wild raspberries and saved some money, but it was not enough. This time the wages were paid on the mountain, which was finally enough to renovate the house.

The hay on the roof has been replaced with new ones, the fence has been raised, and the original broken door has been replaced with a stylish wooden door. The house inside is even more ever-changing, brand new.

"Our family is so good, it must be better to talk about marriage." Liu Sangen said happily, "Brother, if you want, I will call the shots and talk to a matchmaker, and choose a brother with a good personality for our family."

"Now the money is almost spent, and I will save it after the new year." Liu Ergen said, "I can't ask people to suffer when they marry."

"Yo, brother now knows how to love his wife." Liu Sangen laughed.

The wages paid on the mountain were about the same, Liu Yaoqing came out of the house and waited at the foot of the mountain.

Dan County is also closed on 27, but the wages should be paid out a day or two in advance, and the benefits are also given out. 27 That was the day the stewards left.

The swaying carriage entered Shanggu Village, did not stop all the way, and arrived at the mountain again.

The first one to come down was Liushuihe, he hurriedly turned around, and carefully helped Brother Xuan down.

Liu Yaoqing also stepped forward to help Brother Xuan carry the box down, jokingly said: "Brother Xuan can't forget his own things no matter what he does, it's a bit difficult for me to hold it."

"Brother Shuihe is making a fuss." Brother Xuan pursed his lips and smiled, "I just confirmed it, but I don't feel anything, it's still the same as usual. Brother Shuihe insists on taking care of..."

"Don't be careful." Liu Yaoqing said with a smile, and didn't mention this again.

Brother Xuan is definitely pregnant, but in the first few months, only close people will know, and everyone will know when the month is old.

Xuan Ge'er has a thin waist, it's really hard to tell, but Liu Shuihe is quite nervous, holding the box in one hand and holding Xuan Ge'er's hand in the other. .

The men were all tall and full of energy, and the young men looked a lot taller, wearing brand-new clothes issued by Dan County, and their eyes were shining from time to time.

Su San jumped off the carriage, followed by Su Si, Su Wu, Su Liu and Su Qi, ran to stand behind Liu Yaoqing.

Behind them are the little brothers from Shanggu Village. Not to mention their height, they don’t have to go to the ground to do coolies. They work in the house every day, and they are thin and tender.

Everyone is holding the corn husk box and standing around Liu Yaoqing smiling.

Someone had already unloaded the horse and led it to the stable to take care of it, and the carriage was also left alone.Basically, almost all the carriages purchased this year are here, and there are only one or two left in Dan County.

"Welcome everyone to go home." Liu Yaoqing said with a smile, "Everyone go back and put down your things before coming back to the mountain."

Originally, Liu Yaoqing told everyone not to go up the mountain, but to go home and then come back, but the stewards discussed, or go up the mountain to meet Liu Yaoqing first, and then go home.

Many people walked up and down, but the brothers Su Qi jumped three feet high and ran up the mountain to meet and talk with brothers Su Da and Su Er.

Brother Zhi and Brother Yan went to the warm shed at the door to find Brother Zheng and Brother Ming, there was a place for them to sleep.
