idyllic tranquility

The He family is an outsider in Beili Village. Uncle He's grandparents originally lived further north, almost bordering the Mengguo in the north, and dealt with what the villagers called barbarians every day.Originally, life was decent, but three consecutive years of drought forced the He family to move south, and finally chose Beili Village, which is next to the river.

As an outsider, the He family donated ten acres of family land in Beili Village by virtue of their previous savings and excellent woodworking skills, and settled down.At the most glorious time, whether it is a married daughter or a married man in Beili Village, the He family will be invited to make furniture.

The woodworking skills handed down from generation to generation of the He family are no worse than those in the town. It is not only durable, but also carved with beautiful patterns. The most important thing is that there are many discounts on the price for the villagers of Beili Village.After two generations of hard work, it was only in Uncle He's generation that he was truly accepted by Beili Village.

After being busy with the busiest period of spring, Uncle He took over the work of the village head of Beili Village not long after he took a rest, preparing furniture for the ten-year-old daughter of the village head Li Ba's family.The youngest daughter of the village chief's family is not yet engaged, so she is preparing furniture now and asking for slow work.After all, good wood is hard to find, and good carvers are even more urgent.

He Dazhu and He Daxing went into the mountains to find good wood together after finishing the finishing work in the field. Although there was still some stock in the house, it was far from enough.

Uncle He stayed at home and arranged the wood in stock. He picked out the wood that could be used, positioned, scribed, punched, mortised and chiseled, etc., and planned the style of furniture for each piece of wood in his mind. The patterns were also marked separately.

What kind of glorious family history the He family has, He Ning still doesn't know much about it, but the recent big moves of the men in the He family are all seen by He Ning and take pleasure in his heart.

Although Survival Plan [-] and [-] went bankrupt one after another, it doesn't matter, there is Survival Plan [-].

On the third day when the two brothers of the He family entered the mountain, He Ning squatted next to Uncle He to observe after training as usual, and helped pass the tools along the way.

Uncle He saw that his precious grandson finally became interested in the He family's ancestral handicraft, and his interest in working became high. He explained to his grandson while proficient in the operation.Regardless of whether the other party can understand or not, I have spoken over and over again with great patience.

What is rare is that Survival Plan [-] is progressing very smoothly. Not only is it not hindered by the adult women at home, but also He Ning's progress in learning is not slow.However, practice makes perfect, and the technology will be accumulated in thousands of times of practice.

"Hey, my good grandson, let's take a break. Look at this tired man sweating profusely. Come on, grandma has brought you sugar water. The temperature is just right. Come and drink."

Seeing her eldest grandson becoming more sensible day by day, Mrs. He felt very comforted and felt even more distressed.But the ancestral craftsmanship needs to be passed on, and the eldest grandson must also have the ability to settle down in the future. No matter how distressed He is, she endured and did not stop her. She can only try her best to take better care of the eldest grandson.

Mrs. He loves her grandson eagerly, so He Ning will not refuse, and enjoys such care, but the [-] water has not been drunk, and two younger sisters, He Liu and He Xing, rush out of the house until they see He Xing. The old lady calmed down a little in the yard.

"Grandma, my mother's stomach hurts, I'm afraid she's about to give birth."

"What! Why is it earlier? Isn't it still seven or eight days away?" Suddenly hearing that the second daughter-in-law Li Juan is going to give birth, Mrs. He was a little shocked, but then she thought, the second daughter-in-law has already given birth to two children, so she should be cautious. Now it's more important to go and ask the stable woman.Fortunately, she ran into Li Wenpo when she went out two days ago, and took the opportunity to say hello, so she didn't think it was too hasty.

"He An, go to the Tofu Li's house in the east of the village and invite Li Wenpo!"

As soon as He An came back from picking vegetables from the vegetable field, he was assigned a task to enter the door. He didn't have time to put the vegetables in the kitchen, so he put them by the door and rushed to the Tofu Li's house in the east of the village.This is thanks to He Ning's wandering around the village for a few days before, and along with He An, he also found out the situation of the village, so he wouldn't go wrong at this time.

"Eldest daughter-in-law, go to the kitchen to boil hot water and prepare hot towels; Xiao Liu'er, quickly go to my room and take out the brown sugar on the closet; Xiao Xing'er, come back to the house with me to watch your mother." Mrs. He At this time, without panic, he assigned tasks to everyone in an orderly manner, calming down the panic of the He family like a magic needle.

The He family will welcome a new member, and everyone is waiting nervously, expecting the life that will come as they wish.

In this situation, Uncle He and He Ning couldn't help much, but they couldn't add to the chaos, so they cleaned up the wood all over the floor together.

Uncle He squatted at the door, took two puffs of dry cigarettes, and saw He An and Li Wenpo coming from the east of the village from a distance, and then slowly exhaled the smoke from his mouth.Thinking that the two sons who had been in the mountain for three days didn't know when they would come back, Uncle He took another puff silently.

He Ning was not used to the smell of dry smoke, so he didn't stay next to Uncle He, but just leaned against the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the yard.Hearing the more and more heart-piercing shouts from the aunt in the uncle's room, He Ning also started to think wildly.

Sanitary conditions are so poor in this era, there is no disinfectant, no sterile room, and there is not even a professional doctor. Women mostly rely on luck to give birth. They are simply gambling with their lives. It is too hard!I hope she can get what she wants this time, and the mother and child are safe!

At this time, He Ning had long forgotten how his aunt Li Juan was mean and finding fault before, and only thought that he should treat her, his mother and his grandma better in the future.

Then, he thought of his biological mother again, no, now he doesn't even count his biological mother.But Missing is already a dam that has burst its dike, and he can't stop it after a thousand miles.Traveling back to the present, the good memories that have been suppressed are like an uncontrolled camera, replaying the beauty of the past ten or 20 years frame by frame.

Obviously, what he saw was full of happiness and emotion, without disputes or disputes, but why did he feel heartbroken and couldn't stop crying?

Obviously his brain is very clear, he knows that in such a situation, it is inappropriate for him to do this, and he also knows that he should quickly adjust his mentality and do what he should do, but he still can't relieve the heartache and stop the tears.

What a shame.He Ning curled up his legs, lowered his head, and circled himself with his arms.

"What's the matter? Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, this is your aunt giving birth to a little brother. The little brother is sweet and soft, so it's not scary at all."

Someone comforted him softly above his head, and He Ning could tell it was He An, but he didn't expect that in the next second, he was embraced in a hug, one hand hugged him tightly, and the other gently ran down his hair .

Time seemed to slow down, and for a moment, He Ning seemed to smell the scent of acacia flowers on He An.He thought, He An must have picked acacia flowers today.

In He's courtyard, under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, there was a warm wind blowing.
