After beating the man, He patted his clothes as if nothing had happened, continued to line up to fill two wooden barrels with water, carried them on his shoulders with a shoulder pole, and left the mouth of the well with neat steps, without looking back at the one who was angry/crying at her people.

The people in line looked at her back as she went away, and at Ding Shi who was still sitting on the ground pitifully crying, and shook their heads.

An old lady couldn't stand it anymore, she pulled Ding up and said, "Why are you talking so cheaply to provoke her, you're asking for trouble!

Ding wiped her eyes, bit her lips and said nothing.

……

Time passed day by day. At the beginning, the second child would come to Chen's house every two or three days, and then it became three to five days. Now there is no one for ten days.

Heidan and Tie Dan always sat at the gate of Chen's courtyard, staring out blankly, and didn't go out to play. After Chen Shouxing saw it a few times, he asked them to follow Ruirui's handwriting, but he didn't have pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and he didn't expect him to read. Both of them can recognize all the characters, but they just want to be able to recognize a few characters.

Hua'er and Huihui Xiuxiu are similar in age and have known each other for a long time. They have become good sisters these days, and sometimes they go out to do laundry together.

Chen Daniu has never gone out, either cooking at home, teaching flowers to spin, or watching children learn to read.

Looking at Chen Da Niu, who seemed to be watching the child read, but actually her mind wandered to nowhere, Zhao Miaomiao shook her head, she had to find something for her sister-in-law to do, so she called her sister-in-law several times.

Only then did Chen Daniu recover from her daze, and she asked, "Fifth brother and sister? What's the matter?"

Zhao Miaomiao put down her handkerchief and needlework and sighed, "Sister-in-law, the Chinese New Year will be here in half a month. I'm busy doing embroidery work and I don't have time to make Rui Rui's new clothes. Could you please help me?"

Chen Da Niu smiled and said, "What's the trouble? Just don't think I'm not good at needlework."

Saying that, the two left the child's room together and went to the opposite room.

Zhao Miaomiao took out two pieces of cotton cloth from the suitcase, took some needle and thread, handed it to Chen Da Niu and said, "I'll trouble you."

Chen Daniu took the things and said, "Why are you being polite to me?"

Zhao Miaomiao watched her go out, first put some things in a basket, then scooped out one and a half liters of cornmeal and one liter of white flour from two small sacks, took a frozen piece of pork and two pork bones outside the door, turned around Go to the kitchen and cook a soup with pork bones.

The dried vegetables are soaked in hot water, the pork is thawed, chopped to make fillings, the cornmeal and white flour are mixed together to make dumpling skins, and the chubby dried vegetables and pork dumplings are quickly wrapped with fingers.

Wait for the water in the iron pot to boil, put the dumplings to boil, add water to cover the pot, add water back and forth three times, until the dumplings are cooked, use a large colander to scoop up the dumplings and put them in a basin.

After lunch was ready, Zhao Miaomiao first gave two portions of dumplings and pork bone soup to her mother-in-law and father-in-law, and then sent another portion to her sister-in-law.

Chen Daniu frowned, and pushed the tray, "This is a dumpling mixed with white bread, take it back quickly, and leave this good thing for Fifth Brother Ruirui and the others to eat."

Zhao Miaomiao put the tray on the table and said with a smile, "I have left a dumpling for my husband. Sister-in-law, just take it. It's just a plate of dumplings and a bowl of clear soup. What's the point of being polite? I'll trouble you to give it to Rui Rui is making clothes!"

Chen Daniu said disapprovingly, "A big man eats a lot, and he can eat one more plate. If you can't finish it, you can save it for breakfast tomorrow."

Zhao Miaomiao said helplessly, "Sanggong is very strong, and he does not lack this kind of food to nourish his body. Tie Dan is weak, so he needs to eat some good supplements, so don't shirk it!"

Chen Daniu moved her lips, but she didn't say any words of rejection.

Huihui Xiuxiu and Pandi stopped the needlework in their hands, looked at the dumplings on the table, and looked away. Although they were a little greedy, they felt distressed when they thought of the thin and short Tie Dan, and they would not be jealous of this little cousin.

Zhao Miaomiao greeted them, then turned around and went out to ask Ruirui to eat dumplings with Xiaopangdun.

Bite down the golden dumplings, dried plum vegetables mixed with meaty soup, Zhao Miaomiao ate sixteen of them.Little Fatty had a big appetite, so he killed four dumplings and half a bowl of soup, and Ruirui also ate ten.

The two little guys ate their bellies so round, they stretched out their little hands to touch each other's little bellies, trying to compare whose belly was bigger.

the other side,
Chen Da Niu counted the dumplings on the plate, fearing that there were more than twenty, she waved to Hui Hui and the others to come over and eat dumplings together.

Huihui Xiuxiu had the nerve to grab her little cousin's food, and waved her hands repeatedly, "Little aunt said to help Tie Dan to make up for her body, we..."

Chen Daniu didn't say much, and directly picked up a dumpling for each of them with chopsticks and said, "Take one and taste it, Tie Dan can't eat so much."

The three little girls were stunned when a dumpling was suddenly stuffed into their mouths.

Chen Daniu gave half of the dumplings to Tie Dan, and the rest of the people in the room shared the food.

Tie Dan took a bite of the dumpling, tasted it, his small eyes widened, and exclaimed, "Mom, there is meat!"

The black egg chick nodded his head like pecking rice, "Mine also has meat."

The four little girls in the room also said, "It's stuffed with dried vegetables and meat!"

Chen Da Niu was shocked. It was both white flour and meat, so it should be left to the fifth brother to eat!

She looked at the dumplings on the plate, and gave up on sending it back to Zhao Miaomiao after a while. It was not suitable for people to touch and eat them.

In the evening, when Chen Shouxing came back, he didn't have much dinner and ate dumplings with his stomach full.

Zhao Miaomiao heated up the remaining dumplings, Ruirui and Xiaopangdun ate a few, and the rest went into Chen Shouxing's stomach.

After eating the dumplings and taking a shower, wearing only thin clothes and no cotton jacket or trousers, the two little guys quickly got into the bed.

When Chen Shouxing came back from washing, the two little guys were already asleep and snoring.

Zhao Miaomiao was wearing underwear, her black hair was still wet, and she was wiping it with a large hand towel.

Chen Shouxing frowned, took her towel, pressed her on his lap, pulled the quilt to cover her body, and wiped her hair with lowered eyes.

The back of Zhao Miaomiao's head was resting on her thigh, her eyes looked at the man who was brushing her hair earnestly, the corners of her mouth raised, and her fair face was buried in his waist.

The shallow breath swept over his abdomen like a feather, Chen Shouxing's hand wiping his hair was stiff, and he lowered his head along her slender neck, vaguely seeing the scenery inside her loose little coat.

Chen Shouxing felt that it was getting hotter, and he pulled the quilt again, making her whole body tighter, "Don't make trouble!"

Zhao Miaomiao: "???"

Chen Shouxing gritted his back molars, and glanced at his eldest son resentfully, how long will Yu's second dawdle?I have been vegetarian for 35 days!

In the quiet night, a figure walked up and down in the cellar of the house.

Yu Lao Er is also suffering in his heart. Before the river was so thin that he could break it open, he was lucky enough to pick up a few fish in exchange for food. Now the river is frozen so thick that he can't break it. He hasn't given food to his wife and son for ten days. up!
