Chapter 37
After planting the small vegetable seedlings and watering them again, Aunt Liao took the small bucket and the hoe from her and said to her, "Xiang Jin, go to Madi Denger to see if your grandpa and grandma are still there." That does not?
I'll go to the field and pick some sweet potato leaves to make noodles at night. If they are still there, I can make dinner for them together. "

"okay!"

When he arrived at the place, Xiang Jin saw her grandparents, uncles and the others were still working there, but Sun Shijiang and the others were no longer there.

So after she greeted them, she wanted to go back and report to Aunt Liao, but her grandmother grabbed her and said, "Tell your Aunt Liao, don't cook for us, we will return later .”

Yang Juyun didn't do it, "How can it be done? It's such a long journey, and you have to go home to eat after work. You are not afraid of being funny when you tell it?"

Xiang Jin and her grandmother said, "What's the matter with that? We have a long way to go. If we go back after dinner, wouldn't it be very late? Your sister-in-law and your sister-in-law are both at home. When we left in the morning I told them that we would go back to have dinner at night."

"That's not okay," Yang Juyun still refused, and then ordered Xiang Jin who was at the side, "Xiang Jin, go back and tell your Aunt Liao to cook your grandmother's meal."

"Oh, good!" Xiang Jin turned and went home.

Then I heard her mother and her grandmother's persuasion, "How much time do you need for a meal? Just a few minutes or ten minutes, and then let you go back very late?"

Xiang Jin and her grandmother said, "But your sister-in-law and sister-in-law have cooked the rice at home, and then there will be leftovers. You said it was a big summer, and the leftovers will not be eaten the next day." If you can’t eat it, don’t you just waste it?”

Yang Juyun said, "Even if there are leftovers, it's just some porridge leftovers. They can't cook the noodles for you in advance after such a long journey, can they?
Besides, if there is leftover porridge, there will be leftovers. No one is short of food now, so the leftovers will be eaten by the pigs at home. "

Although Xiang Jin didn't know where her grandparents lived, she knew that her grandmother's house was still far away from theirs, and it would take more than an hour just to walk.

Aunt Liao's natal home, Liaojiaya, is said to be farther than her grandmother's home, about two miles away.

Probably because her mother told her there was no other way, Xiang Jin and her grandmother finally compromised, "Oh, it's all right, it's up to you, we'll go back after dinner, you said you're a real person, Be polite with your parents, you must eat your meal to be comfortable?"

After hearing their conversation, Xiang Jin couldn't help shaking his head and laughing. Country people in this era, just like that, both of them are extremely polite, even if they have strong blood relatives.

After dinner, Yang Juyun sent them out, and then asked grandma and grandpa not to come over from tomorrow, saying that they could do it by themselves for the time being.

Grandma glared at her angrily, "I can do it for the time being? You are planning to let the two children go with you to move those stones, so heavy, so rough, are you willing? You are willing, but I am not willing!"
Or are you going to do it slowly by yourself?Then when will your house be repaired?There are many people, so go faster. "

Xiang Jin actually wanted to say that she was not afraid of moving stones, and she was not afraid of rough stones that would cut her skin, but she was a little afraid of the scorching sun, and when she saw the sun at noon, she felt unbearably hot !

Then I heard Yang Juyun say, "Didn't I find it inconvenient for you to run back and forth for hours every day?"

It is indeed inconvenient, not to mention that their family of three is still living in another house, even Aunt Liao's house does not have any extra rooms to provide.

Grandma said, "What's the inconvenience? Isn't it just to get up early in the morning and go back at night, just as a meal?
Well, it's settled like this, I discussed it with your father, and your two brothers, sister-in-law and daughter-in-law, that is, we will help you before your house is repaired.Where does the family have so many courtesies? "

The corner of Yang Juyun's mouth raised an embarrassing smile, "Okay, then I won't be polite to you, we have to walk the mountain road tonight, wait a minute, bring a flashlight."

As she said that, she asked Xiang Nan to go back to the house to take out their flashlight, and then she went to the corner and took out some yellow wattle sticks and handed them to them, "It's summer, it's easy to get snakes, you guys Each of them took a stick and beat the grass on the side of the road while walking."

"Got it, got it, are you back?" Grandma took the flashlight from Xiang Nan and hurriedly walked out, and grandpa and uncle hurriedly followed.

Looking at their leaving figures, plus her two days of observation, Xiang Jin felt that her grandma was in charge of her grandpa's family, because she was always the talker in that family, and she Grandpa is a man of few words, very transparent.

From this point of view, her mother's temperament of doing things is still inherited from her grandmother, but her soft personality is inherited from her grandfather.

After more than ten days of hot weather, God finally showed mercy that night, and there was a heavy rain with thunder and lightning, which lasted until the middle of the night.

When Xiang Jin woke up the next morning, he could smell the smell of earth, and at the same time, there was a trace of coolness in the air. It was not as stuffy as the previous few days, and he wanted to let people pour well water directly on his body. , very comfortable.

Yang Juyun and Aunt Liao didn't see anyone when they got up early in the morning, so they probably all went out to work.

Xiang Jin dug Xiang Nan up from the bed, Xiang Nan was still a little angry, "What are you doing, sister, you haven't woken up yet?"

Xiang Jin said, "You are allowed to take a nap at noon, but you can't sleep anymore at this moment. I'll put the rice in the pot for you, and you will burn it. While the weather is cool, I will go to Ma Tei Go up and do some work."

How can her mother do it alone?
"Oh, okay!" The little girl pouted her head, although she was still a little reluctant to appeal, but she didn't play tricks on her, and she was still sensible.

Xiang Jin put the rice in the pot for her, and then went to Huangye Bay, but when she was halfway there, she met Aunt Liao who turned back, and Aunt Liao told her.

"Xiang Jin, you came just in time. Go back quickly and cook a few more people's meals? The stonemasons in Sunjiawan arrived early in the morning, but they haven't had breakfast at home, and they want to take advantage of it. Let’s do some work in anticipation of the better weather this morning.”

"Oh well!"

Xiang Jin felt that the rural people in this era were really simple and sincere, and her mother, the craftsmen, was right.

When he got home, Xiang Jin told Xiang Nan about it, then poured a few ladles of water into the pot, scooped up two spoonfuls of rice and poured it into the pot.

Then she thought again, people who do manual labor, it seems that just drinking some porridge is not enough, huh?

So she thought of the rice noodles she bought back from the town yesterday, and then asked Xiang Nan to heat up another pot, boil some boiling water, and soak some vermicelli.

When Xiang Nan heard this, he was suddenly overjoyed, and hurriedly picked up firewood and stuffed it into another stove hole.

Xiang Jin washed the pot, then poured two ladles of water into it, and then she went to prepare the ingredients needed for the cold salad vermicelli.

In about a few minutes, Xiang Nan boiled the water in the pot, Xiang Jin put a lot of vermicelli in it and let it soak in it, and then she cut another cucumber and put it there ready.

After Xiang Nan put another piece of firewood into the pot, she got up and looked at her, "Sister, why are you cutting cucumbers again?"

Xiang Jin said, "I'll mix it with the vermicelli later. It would be great if there were bean sprouts. Then I can make a salad with three silks." Yesterday she forgot to buy some bean sprouts and came back.

Xiang Nan frowned, "It sounds delicious."

The corner of Xiang Jin's mouth curled into a smile, "Sansi cold salad is indeed much more delicious than vermicelli cold salad alone."

Xiang Nan said, "Sister, we have mung beans and soybeans at home. If you want to eat bean sprouts, can we distribute them ourselves?"

Xiang Jin said with some regret, "Unfortunately, I don't know how to grow bean sprouts."

Xiang Nan said, "What's so difficult about it? Our mother and Aunt Liao know it well. Let them teach us when the time comes. Anyway, it won't take much time."

Xiang Jin nodded, "That's a good idea."
