Chapter 336 336 The beauty of childhood
The rice in Dafeng Village was also ripe. The villagers stood under the terraced fields and looked at the golden rice fields on the mountain with tears in their eyes. Uncle Gu shouted to everyone, "Folks, we have food to eat."
Everyone laughed, "Haha! We also have food to eat."
"Oh!...I have white rice to eat!" The children also jumped up happily.
Father Gu looked at the cheering child and wiped away his old tears, smiled and patted Uncle Gu, waved his hands and shouted to the villagers: "Everyone, hurry up! Take advantage of the sunny weather to bring the rice home to dry, Hurry up and pay back the rice that you owe the owner of Guyu."
"Okay! The rice is harvested!" Everyone climbed the terraced fields and got busy.
After all the rice was put into the warehouse, Li Yu asked Zhou Jia to send some of the rice to the cellar of the government office for storage, and put some of the rice into the space for emergencies, while the rest was stored in Zhuangzi's cellar and warehouse.
After leaving next year's rice seeds, Li Yurang Ruyi to start registering farmers in several nearby villages, and plans to sell the remaining rice seeds to those families.
Li Yujin walked around in the space and saw the storage information displayed above. There were more than two thousand catties of rice, eight or nine thousand catties of millet in storage, a hanging pot, some seasoning salt, cooking oil, and medicinal materials. After several additions, five or six hundred arrows, ten crossbows, four bows, more than two hundred feather arrows, as well as a machete handed down from the Li family and a few daggers with a thin blade have been saved.
Meat and pasta have long been consumed, and game has long since disappeared because he hadn't hunted in the mountains in recent years. Li Yu planned to go up to the mountains to hunt and store some meat while the wild animals were plump in autumn.
Zhou Jia returned to Zhuangzi in the evening, Li Yu looked at him and smiled: "Why did you come back so early today?"
Zhou Jia stepped forward and embraced Li Yu, looking at her reluctantly, "Yu'er, I have to go out early tomorrow morning to check, the tax collection in some places will not be announced until the third day of September at the Sangong Court. When I come back, I want to find Mr. by the way, and I don’t know where his old man and the Taoist priest went to travel?”
Li Yu originally wanted to tell him about his hunting in the mountains, but after hearing him say he was going out, he didn't plan to tell him, to save him worrying.
Li Yu turned his head and looked at Zhou Jia, also a little reluctant, and said softly, "Fortunately, Jixiang is back, and I can feel relieved to have him with you."
Hearing Li Yu talking about auspiciousness, Zhou Jia thought of auspicious marriages, "What happened to him and that Gu Yu, do you want us to decide?"
"It's been two months since Jixiang was gone, and when he came back, he was busy with the construction site. I don't know how the two of them are doing? You can ask later." Speaking of Jixiang and Gu Yu, Li Yu laughed, feeling that Both are the kind of slow people who are confused about feelings.
Zhou Jia stood up, "Alright, where is Yang'er? I haven't seen him since I came back."
"He!" Li Yu said with a smile on his face when he talked about his son who was alive and well, "I went with Shuisheng and the others to the pond to see the lotus flowers. A group of children said to see if there were any lotus flowers in bud, tomorrow morning. Go pick two flowers and come back and put them in a bottle for me."
Zhou Jia laughed, "Is the lotus root that Ruyi planted blooming?"
"I heard that a few flowers bloomed sporadically in the past, but there were more blooms yesterday, do you want to take a look?"
"Okay." Zhou Jia took Li Yu's hand and nodded with a smile, and the couple walked out of the yard hand in hand towards the pond.
When the two of them walked halfway, they saw a group of children holding a long bamboo pole with a bamboo loop made of bamboo strips tied to the bamboo pole. When I saw it, I laughed. I remembered that I played this game in my previous life when I was a child. After my grandma saw it, she told us that the dragonfly was raised by Lei Gong. . Later, more and more pesticides were used, and the dragonflies became less and less. I didn't expect that children from a thousand years ago would also play this game.
Zhou Jia looked at the children who were running wildly in front of her, and recalled her childhood memories and couldn't help laughing, "Yu'er, you see, I played with them when I was a child. At that time, Jixiang was so short that he couldn't run away from us every time, panicked. In a panic, I often stumble on the ground and cry."
When I was a child, I thought about growing up every day, and when I grew up, I often remembered the good times of my childhood. Li Yu pointed to the two people standing by the stream in front of him, and whispered: "Xiao Xi, look, it's not Jixiang and Gu Yu who are standing in front of you. ?"
Zhou Jia smiled and nodded, "Yeah! It seems that the two of them are getting closer!"
Yangyang saw his father and mother with the bamboo pole, put the bamboo pole into the hands of the little loach, and ran over, "Dad, are you back? Mother, are you out too?"
Li Yu saw that he was sweating profusely running, and his little jacket was soaked with sweat. He took out the handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his face, "Look, you are sweating profusely, are you tired?"
Zhou Jia also smiled and asked, "Didn't you all go to see the flowers? Why are you catching dragonflies here again?"
Yangyang took Zhou Jia's hand, "Dad, we've seen it before. There are several flowers that will bloom tomorrow morning. Brother Qijin and I agreed to pick them tomorrow morning, and the bamboo poles are ready."
Zhou Jia squatted down to look at him, and said softly: "Okay, do you want to play with your friends for a while or go shopping with your father and mother?"
Yangyang hesitated for a while, then looked at his partner who was playing and then at his parents, and said, "Walk with my parents."
The family of three walked across the ridge of the cornfield holding hands, listening to the rustling of corn leaves by the wind, Yangyang looked at Li Yu's stomach, compared it, and asked strangely: "Mother, seven pounds Brother said that Aunt Yu has a little sister hidden in her belly, why don't you hide one?"
Zhou Jia smiled and asked, "Does Yang'er want a little sister?"
Yang Yang glanced at Li Yu, "I have seven pounds of brother, I still want a sister and a brother," Yang Yang looked at Li Yu a little worried, "Mother, can I fit two of your belly? ?"
Li Yu looked at his son with a worried look, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"Ha...ha...," Zhou Jia laughed and hugged Yangyang, "Oh! My silly son!"
Yangyang looked at Zhou Jia and retorted seriously, "Daddy, I'm not stupid. Both Mr. Lu and Mr. Liu praised me for being smart, and my master also praised me for being smart and having a good memory."
Zhou Jia deliberately bumped into Li Yu, "Daughter-in-law, you see how smart our son is! We know we need a sister and a younger brother."
Li Yu glanced at the smirking grandpa, then turned his head and rolled his eyes.
Jixiang and Gu Yu heard Zhou Jia's happy laughter, and reached out to hold Gu Yu's hand secretly, "Gu Yu, when the master is back, I will go to the master and his wife, and ask them to officiate the wedding for us."
Jixiang looked at Gu Yu uneasily, only to see Gu Yu shyly smiling and nodding, "Yeah!"
Jixiang looked at Gu Yu's heart and grabbed Gu Yu's hand and kissed it, his small eyes became a slit in his smile, "Gu Yu, you are so kind."
When I was a child, I liked to play with the dragonfly. I often walked over to try to catch it while it was staying, but I never succeeded. The hometown of cats is called Tintin Cat, but what is the hometown of book lovers?
