Seeing Gu Zhaoyang eating happily, Tang Qianhe tilted his head to look at him with a smile, and asked, "Is it delicious?"

Gu Zhaoyang ate quickly, and in the blink of an eye a bowl of eight-treasure porridge had been gulped down. When he heard Tang Qianhe ask himself, he realized belatedly that the porridge had just come out of the pot. It was burnt off!

So, he took a quick breath and almost felt that his tongue was broken. When the numbness subsided, he raised his head and said excitedly: "Xiaoqian, it's really delicious. Is this porridge the eight-treasure porridge you mentioned?"

"En," Tang Qianhe poured the porridge from the pot into a big bowl, and said, "Xiaoyang help me bring this porridge in, and I'll cook some glutinous rice balls for dinner."

Gu Zhaoyang nodded, took the big bowl from Tang Qianhe's hand, turned around and carried it into the dining room.

Tang Qianhe put the round glutinous rice balls into the boiling pot, thought for a while, then turned to Gu Zhaoyang, who was a few steps away from him, and said, "By the way, go and call Xiaoli and Lele back It's time to eat." Gu Zhili took Gu Yu to play outside the house.

"I see." Gu Zhaoyang responded.

By the time Tang Qianhe put the glutinous rice balls into the pot and entered the dining room, Gu Zhili had already washed his hands with Gu Yule and sat obediently on his seat, blinking his eyes at the nice-colored porridge in the big bowl, swallowing his saliva.

But before he could speak, he was preempted by his younger brother.

"Brew~eat~"

Gu Yule has already spoken some simple words now, but he still hasn't changed the name of Tang Qianhe, and the older he grows up, the more attached he is to Tang Qianhe. Every time he eats and doesn't sit in Tang Qianhe's arms, he starts to pretend Crying made the other three very distressed, so they had to compromise in the end.

Sure enough, when Tang Qianhe heard Gu Yule's words, he stretched out his hand to pinch his chubby face, bent down, and subconsciously hugged him in his arms, then reached out to pick up the eight-treasure porridge that had been cold for a long time, and fed him mouthful by mouthful. Give it to the baby in your arms.

Gu Yule ate the eight-treasure porridge fed by Tang Qianhe, squinting his eyes happily, and glanced at his two older brothers with triumphant eyes, patted his little hands, then swallowed the porridge in his mouth and continued to open his mouth to wait for another bite.

Simply happy!

Gu Zhaoyang looked at it, his expression changed, his eyes narrowed, and he felt even more in his heart, this little brother is an eyesore, and when he grows up, he must be thrown into the school.

Of course, Gu Zhili didn't feel much, he just tilted his head and looked at his pampered and lawless younger brother, then continued to lower his head, digging into the porridge with a spoon to eat.

Well, it's really delicious.

The pot of eight-treasure porridge was quickly divided up. Gu Zhili ate the third bowl in front of him, sipping small mouthfuls, with his mouth pursed, looking at the big clean bowl, he still wanted to eat it.

Tang Qianhe looked at Gu Zhili, cheerfully, and said in a warm voice, "Little Li, there are glutinous rice balls to eat later."

Gu Zhili blinked and blinked, and let out an oh.

No matter how slow he ate, there was only so much in a bowl of porridge, and he finished it quickly. Gu Zhili touched his stomach and felt that he was not too full.

Tang Qianhe looked at the three children as if they hadn't seen it yet, and put Gu Yule, who was playing happily with a lock of his hair in his arms, into Gu Zhaoyang's arms, and then stood up.

"The glutinous rice balls should be cooked, I'll bring them over," Tang Qianhe said.

The glutinous rice balls in the pot had been warmed over low heat before. Now, when Tang Qianhe opened the lid of the pot, the glutinous rice balls inside had already floated on top because they were cooked.

After making sure that the glutinous rice balls filled with peanuts and fillings were cooked through, Tang Qianhe added some sugar into them, but not too much, because the fillings inside are already sweet, if you add too much sugar, it will be too sweet, Things that are too sweet are often not that enjoyable.

There were six glutinous rice balls in each of the four small porcelain bowls. The boiled glutinous rice balls did not crack. Especially gluttonous.

As soon as the hot glutinous rice balls came to the table, Gu Zhili's eyes widened.

"Big brother, are these glutinous rice balls?" In the past, when the winter solstice came, my mother would make them for them. Tiantian could eat a lot at once, but he remembered that there was nothing wrapped in them.

"That's right, it's glutinous rice balls." Tang Qianhe put four bowls in front of each of them and said, "Eat it, this is my first time making it, let's see if it tastes good, but be careful that the peanut filling in your heart will burn your mouth. "

Gu Zhili listened, and nodded obediently, what was originally planned to be a mouthful became a small mouthful.

After biting off the thin layer of skin on the outside, the sweet peanut filling flowed out. Although Gu Zhili was very careful, he was scalded, but he completely ignored it.

There is only one thought in my heart, this glutinous rice balls are delicious!

Gu Zhaoyang watched his younger brother bury his head in the food without lifting his head, so he scooped one up and put it in his mouth. After biting the skin, his cheeks bulged, and then he squinted his eyes and started to eat slowly.

Tang Qianhe didn't like sweet food in the first place, not to mention that he was half full from the eight-treasure porridge before. He fed Gu Yule in his arms, and he only ate one bowl of glutinous rice balls and didn't move anymore.

After Gu Zhaoyang finished eating the glutinous rice balls, he raised his head and saw that Tang Qianhe's bowl was barely moving, and he was just busy feeding his younger brother nestled in his arms, so he put down the bowl, frowned, and took Gu Zhaoyang from Tang Qianhe's arms. Yu Le hugged him and said, "Xiaoqian, you can eat too, Lele can just feed me."

"I don't want to eat," Tang Qian said, "I was full just now, and I can't eat the glutinous rice balls now."

Since Tang Qianhe couldn't eat anymore, Gu Zhaoyang couldn't force it, but he still said: "Xiaoqian eats too little, you should eat more."

Tang Qianhe laughed after hearing this, his starry eyes bent into crescent moons: "It's already quite a lot, Xiaoyang didn't see that I just ate two bowls of porridge."

Gu Zhaoyang said, "Xiaoli eats more than you."

Gu Zhili still nodded his head in agreement, with the spoon still in his mouth, his cheeks puffed up and said: "Big brother, don't you eat? If you don't want to eat, can you give it to Xiao Li?"

Then, Tang Qianhe turned his head to look at Gu Zhili, seeing the happy appearance of the other party taking his bowl and burying his head in eating, and seeing the height of his chest even though he was only seven years old, he immediately said: "..."

Is it really because of eating less?

*********

Unexpectedly, the fruit trees bought from Yang Yu have already started to bear fruit, and now all the fruits are ripe, and some seasonal fruits are hanging on the branches, which is very joyful.

Eighteen fruit trees were too few to occupy less than an acre of land. Later, Tang Qian and the others bought more than [-] trees from Yang Yu, which made it look like a small orchard.

Five or six persimmon trees are covered with already ripe persimmons, and occasionally someone walks over, and one or two will fall off, and the outer skin is peeled off, the flesh inside is extremely sweet and delicious.

Walk five or six times under the tree. If you are lucky, you can pick up six or seven fallen persimmons. Some children simply go inside to play. After a day, they can bring home quite a few.

Gu Zhaoyang and Tang Qianhe naturally knew about this situation, but they did not ask these children not to pick them up or return them.

The villagers in Linshui Village are simple and kind. Although the children they teach are a bit naughty, they are not enough to steal fruits, so it is no big deal to let them pick up ripe and fallen fruits.

Because of this piece of orchard, the originally sparsely populated mountain forest has become lively.

The shorter orange trees, orange trees, taller apple trees, and persimmon trees bring vitality to the originally barren mountains.

The corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes planted next to the orchard have also matured, waiting for the owner to step on and pick them.

After the crops in the field were harvested, Tang Qian and the others began to harvest the fruits.Because the ripe persimmons, oranges, and apples were all hanging on the branches, the two of them alone could not do what they wanted, so Zhang Mei helped find someone to come, and they would give ten coins for the two baskets of fruit, and they could also get money from the two baskets. Each person took two from the fruit basket.

Now that the autumn harvest has just passed, most of the villagers still need to be busy threshing the rice and planting the overwintering vegetables in the ground, so in fact, there are not many adults who come to help, except for some jobs that have already been done, most of the others They are all eight-nine-year-old children in the village——

Because the children in the countryside grow up in free range, and they often do things like climbing trees and digging out bird nests, so when their parents said that Tang Qian and them asked someone to help pick the fruit and they still had ten cents to take, they all liked it. He happily expressed his willingness to come.

——Although the money they get back is to be given to their parents, the fruit is not used, and they have been coveting the fruit in the orchard for a long time!

And most of these children's parents will not stop them, after all, they play this every day, and now they can still play and get money, why not do it?

So these children went up the mountain together in twos and threes. At the beginning, Tang Qian met him and was very surprised. Then he disapproved of letting these children who were only eight or nine years old climb trees to pick fruits, but later, under Zhang Mei's enlightenment, he finally agreed. up.

Fortunately, when Da Zhuang heard that Gu Zhaoyang's fruit was ripe and was about to start picking, he also came over in a panic. He was like the king of children among this group of children. What he said made Tang Qian and the noisy group The children with headaches all quieted down obediently.

Da Zhuang scratched his head, looked at Gu Zhaoyang and Tang Qian and smiled innocently: "Hey, they are all quiet now, tell me what you want to do and how to do it."

Tang Qianhe looked at the group of little radishheads in front of him, and laughed helplessly, feeling that his subordinates were just a bunch of little brats.

Withdrawing his thoughts, Tang Qianhe coughed lightly, and then said in a warm voice: "You can find someone to form a team with you, and pick fruits together. For every two baskets of fruits you pick, you will get five cents each. Of course, the two baskets The fruit must be intact, if it breaks, you won’t get ten coins, and you have to pay me according to the amount of damaged fruit.”

"Got it." A group of children nodded earnestly after listening. After seeing Tang Qianhe signaled them to group up, they started to find their partners, and then took baskets from Gu Zhaoyang, and ran to pick the fruit in a swarm.

The tasks for a group of children have been assigned, and the rest are a few adults. They looked at Tang Qianhe and asked, "Should we also be in groups of two?"

Tang Qianhe shook his head, "No, the main reason for letting them group into groups is to ensure safety. After all, they are still too young."

"Oh, so if we pick two baskets of fruit, do you really give me ten cents?"

"Yes, two baskets of ten cents, but the fruit must not be damaged, otherwise you will have to pay for it."

"Okay, we got it."

Several adults solved the doubts in their hearts, and then each of them took a basket, ready to start picking fruits, but Tang Qianhe seemed to remember something, and said to them: "By the way, please help look after those children, don't hurt them."

Gu Zhaoyang saw that everyone went to pick the fruit, and he was about to climb up the tree to pick it with a basket, but was held back by Tang Qianhe.

Gu Zhaoyang turned his head and asked doubtfully, "Xiaoqian, what's wrong?"

Tang Qianhe pulled him to his side, then found a place to sit down, and said: "Xiaoyang doesn't need to go to work, I will let them pick these fruits." There were not many fruits in the first place, so after picking them for two or three days, That's about it.

Fortunately, the fruit can be kept fresh in the space. Otherwise, even if so many fruits are transported to the city to buy, it will take many days, and spoilage is inevitable.

"Oh." Only then did Gu Zhaoyang remember that many people had helped to pick these fruits, so he sat down beside Tang Qianhe with peace of mind, tilted his head, and quietly watched Tang Qianhe's side face.

The warmth in the eyes is almost full.
