Chapter 19 Chapter 19
Li An had already fallen asleep dangling on the bullock cart, and was put on the bed by Li Changhui. He couldn't do anything in the field right now, so he simply helped cook.

Li Changhui can't cook, but he can still light the fire.

The rabbit meat that was blanched last night was washed with clean water again, with a little oil, poured a little white wine, fried it for a while, then added water, added spices and stewed it, and cut a white radish and added it.

The rabbit is not small, and it is estimated to be not young, so it needs to be stewed for a while. Lin He covered the pot, soaked brown rice, and cooked the rice.

"Brother Hui, help me filter out the bamboo shoots and dry them outside. I'll pack them up and make some sour bamboo shoots to eat."

The bamboo shoots were chopped last night, and they are still soaking in the barrel.

He took the Shau Kei he bought this morning to Li Changhui, and brought out the jars he washed last night.

After one night, the jar has been completely dried. The jar is not big, but it is enough. Put the bamboo shoots marinated with salt last night into it and compact it. After three or four days, it can be eaten.

Such bamboo shoots are sour and crisp, with the unique fragrance of bamboo shoots, very delicious.

It's a pity that there is no fresh chili now, otherwise it will be more delicious if it is marinated together and has a bit of spiciness.

After thinking about it, Lin He chopped a few dried chili peppers and threw them in. They are not as delicious as fresh chili peppers, but they are still more delicious with a bit of spiciness.

After Lin He finished marinating the bamboo shoots, Li Changhui took out two long benches and dried all the bamboo shoots in the yard with the big dustpan that Lin He washed last night.

Seeing Lin He coming out, Li Changhui straightened up:

"Xiaohe, I'll go to my uncle's house and ask him to find out about the little chicken and little piggy for me. I'll take you for a walk on the mountain this afternoon."

Lin He was pleasantly surprised: "Really, aren't you going to the field?"

"There is nothing to do in the field, just wait for the cotton seeds to come back."

Li Changhui said that he had already left, Lin He packed up the things he bought, and took out the roll of lard.

The pork suet was snow-white, with almost no stains except for a little bloodshot, but Lin He still boiled hot water to wash the pork suet to remove the bloodshot.

With so much oil, it is estimated that it will not be boiled out for a while, so we can only cut it first.

Lin He planned it in his heart, wait for the rabbit to be stewed and serve it first, cook the oil while eating, it doesn't matter to them that they got up early this morning, the two children have to take a nap no matter what.

When the oil boils, you can almost go up the mountain.

Here Lin He and Li Changhui are busy with their own arrangements, while Li Yu and Li Hao on the other side are about to turn grandma's house upside down.

The two brothers were aggressive at first, wanting to ask grandma to get back the 'stolen' money, but halfway through, Li Yu calmed down a bit.

It's not that he regretted it, but he was just thinking about how to get the money back. After all, he knew his grandparents very well, so it would not be so easy to return them.

He knew that his father would ask someone to bring money back to grandma every year. When he was at grandma's house, his grandma often told him that if your father hadn't brought the money, I wouldn't bother to talk about you.

There are very few children without parents in the village, and the two of them happened to be. To be honest, they were often teased as a joke in the village.

Although Li Yu is only seven years old, children are already more sensitive, and Li Yu has heard similar words since she was a child, so she naturally thinks more than ordinary children.

This time, both parents came back, and they were not children without parents, but they were kicked out by their grandparents before they had time to be happy for too long.

Li Yu, who was only seven years old, had no concept of family separation in his mind. He only knew that his grandparents disliked his father for serving as a soldier and killing people, so they kicked them out.

That's what everyone else in the village said.

After all, if the parents do not separate the family, anyone who separates the family if the parents are still alive will be poked in the back, especially the old ones will feel that they have lost face and will never agree to the separation.

However, Li Changhui separated the family just a few days after he came back, and it was so peaceful that the two elders of the Li family didn't say anything. Naturally, everyone thought that it was the two elders who wanted to split up on their own initiative.

Although there are a lot of things distributed, it is really a bit shabby for others, and for a newly built small courtyard as big as the Li family.

Even the grain is only available for one month. If Li Changhui didn't know how to hunt and earn money, after this month, the Li family might be hungry or borrow grain.

As for money, there is not even a single penny.

In the eyes of others, isn't it just like being kicked out? Li Yu listened to it a few times, and he really felt so in his heart.

What made Li Yu even more angry now was that when his parents came back, his grandparents took his money and kicked them out, but now they actually came to their house to steal money!
Thinking of the prey that Dad had worked so hard to catch yesterday, and finally had some money in the family, it was stolen like this!
Be sure to get your money back!
Daddy gave grandparents so much money, even the most beautiful courtyard in the village was built with Daddy's silver, and now they even stole their only three taels of silver!

Li Yu cheered herself up in her heart, then pulled her brother over and whispered in his ear for a while.

Finally, he patted his younger brother on the shoulder seriously: "Do you remember what elder brother said?"

Li Hao nodded: "Don't worry, brother, I will definitely help my parents get the money back!"

He clenched his fist as hard as he said it, almost swearing.

At this time, the two brothers had already arrived near the house of their grandparents, and their second aunt was choosing vegetables in the vegetable garden, and it seemed that they were also planning to go home for lunch.

The second aunt didn't notice the brothers Li Yu and Li Hao, but Li Yu's eyes were sharp, seeing other neighbors around her, she rolled her eyes, pulled Li Hao up and yelled.

"Second aunt, why are you stealing money from my family with grandma? My third brother will have nothing to eat!"

The loud voice instantly attracted the attention of all the villagers within a radius of 500 meters.

Li Hao even burst into tears at the top of his throat: "Wow~ The third brother is so pitiful, he is going to be hungry again, grandma returned the money to us, and wants to buy food for my brother."

It sounds fake, but it doesn't matter, as long as the sound is loud enough.

As soon as the second aunt came to her senses, her face turned livid: "Little bastard, who are you talking about, who stole your money! If you dare to yell, be careful, I will tear your mouth!"

Li Yu took a step back in fright, but thinking that he was no longer a child without a father and mother, he cheered up again, took a big step forward, and stared at his second aunt furiously.

"It's you. Someone saw you coming to my house and broke the lock on my door. My father's three taels of silver from hunting last night were all stolen. Who else is there if it's not you!"

"What! Three taels! Didn't you say there are only six coins?"

The second aunt was startled instinctively, and then her face changed drastically, but it was too late.

Li Yu immediately sat on the ground and rolled around: "Sure enough, it's you, why did you steal my money, didn't daddy just give you two silver ingots, our family has eaten up all the food, that's money for selling food! "

Seeing his grandma coming out of the yard out of the corner of his eye, Li Yu got up again, rushed to his grandma, hugged grandma's thigh, knelt on the ground, snot and burst into tears.

"Grandma, grandma, please return the silver to us, An'er is going to be hungry, and we are going to be hungry too..."

 I'm sorry, I moved today, I was busy until eight or nine in the evening, and I really didn't have the energy to type, update a chapter, forgive me
