Chapter 264: Enough green vegetables
Siniang was not interested in the boys' bird-hunting activities, so she pulled Jinhua into the back of the carriage.

Pointing to the large and small bags in the car, he looked at his sister expectantly and said, "Sister Jinhua, I brought you a lantern. It looks great when placed on the bedside at night, and you don't have to be afraid of getting up at night."

As she expected, Jinhua showed a look of surprise, "Si Niang, you are my best sister!"

The fourth mother smiled with her little white teeth, and the two sisters immediately hugged each other, very sticky.

Liu Fei patted Liu Ji's arm. Liu Ji, who was bragging to Liu Biao and Liu Zhong, smiled and turned back, "What's the matter?"

Liu Fei said seriously: "Third brother, don't be too sad."

Liu Ji grinned: Look at my big smiling face, does it look sad?

Liu Fei felt that he was forcing a smile, and tried hard to make his expression look less sympathetic, and added: "I didn't pass the exam this year, but I will definitely do it next year. Liu Li has been studying for more than ten years, and you have only been studying for a while. Less than normal.”

The smile gradually disappeared on Liu Ji's face. This time, he was really sad. He was so sad that he wanted to tear Liu Fei's mouth apart. It was really a pot that he didn't open and lift!
Noticing that the smile on Liu Ji's face had disappeared, Liu Fei immediately pointed at his collapsed face, "Look, you still say you're not sad. Third brother, you have the toughest mouth in the whole body."

The tips of Qin Yao's ears moved slightly, as if she heard the sound of grinding teeth. She turned around suspiciously and saw Liu Ji clenching his teeth and widening his eyes, staring at Liu Fei with blazing anger.

Liu Fei didn't realize it at all, and still told his third brother not to think too much. High school is their business, and if we don't pass the exam, we have to work harder.

Not a single word was mentioned about failing the exam, but every word pierced Liu Ji's heart.

"Let's go, let's go home and put our luggage away before coming back." Qin Yao shouted at the right time, otherwise she was afraid that the two resentful brothers would fight on the spot.

Liu Ji took a deep breath, then another deep breath, and nodded Liu Fei's forehead hard, then responded with "Hey".

It's been nearly a month since I left, and nothing at home seems to have changed.

Qin Yao sat on the shaft of the car and looked back. It was dark at night and she couldn't see the person clearly, but those familiar sounds of care and greetings made people feel warm in their hearts, and even the fatigue of the journey disappeared.

Dalang and Erlang stood aside and pushed open the closed door of their home. The wooden door opened with a "squeak" sound.

The familiar courtyard came into view, and a family of six stood in front of the door, smiling.

"We're finally here!" Qin Yao crossed the high threshold and walked in. She took a deep breath of the familiar air and sighed comfortably, "This is when I'm really home."

Then, the lights in the house were lit, and a family of six ran around inside and outside the house, and the small courtyard that had been quiet for a long time quickly came back to life.

Qin Yao was responsible for unloading the carriage and feeding the horses, while Liu Ji and the four children moved the luggage into the house. They picked out the gifts and put them aside for later when they went to the old house for dinner.

The yard has been unoccupied for so long and has accumulated a layer of dust. The tables, chairs and benches in the house are also covered with dust. Liu Ji wants to tidy up, so he comes to the large water tank next to the kitchen to look at it. He forgot to put a lid on the water tank before going out. , now it is full of rotten grass flying from outside the yard, and it is completely useless.

I had no choice but to roll up my sleeves, find a feather duster and sweep away the dust in the room.

Qin Yao parked the carriage, fed the horses, and while checking the granary, opened all the doors and windows of each house for ventilation.

The granary was intact and the grain inside was dry. Qin Yao's hanging heart finally fell.

After checking the utility room, he closed the house again, picked up the hoe and went out to the latrine.

The vitality of the weeds is extremely strong. It has only been a month since we have cleaned up the area, and the back slope has been completely covered by weeds.

Fortunately, she had the foresight to bring a hoe and successfully arrived at the hut.The oxcart was parked at the old house, and Liu Bai was always in charge of it. He was used daily to send his children to school, to haul goods from the stationery factory, and so on.

By the time Qin Yao came back from the hut, the five people in the house had already dusted off the ashes in the house, and finally it looked a little tidy.

"Let's go." Qin Yao clapped her hands, not being particular about washing her hands without water, "Go to the old house to eat first, then come back and clean up slowly after eating."

The stomachs of the father and son had been growling with hunger for a long time. When she went to the hut, Liu Ji had already taken out the remaining scones on the way, and the five father and son each divided a small piece for their stomachs.

But how can hard, dry scones compare to hot, fresh meals?

Nodding hurriedly, the four Dalang brothers and sisters took the gifts they wanted to give to everyone in the old house and rushed out of the house screaming.

Liu Ji held a lantern and chased after him while shouting: "You little bastards, stop for me! You will cry if I fall!"

With a smile on her face, Qin Yao calmly picked up the oversized bucket at home, locked the door, and followed slowly.

She took the bucket with her and fetched the water when she came back. After running all the way, she was not in the mood to take a shower. If she didn't take a shower, Qin Yao felt that the wind she brought out from walking would be bad.

The wooden barrel was placed by the door of the old house. Qin Yao glanced at the five father and son who were already giving out gifts to everyone in the main room. She walked towards the kitchen with a faint smile, washed her hands, and went directly to the stove.

"What are you looking at? Fucheng is so big and it's not big enough for you to see. Come and see my egg noodle soup." He joked.

Qin Yao leaned close to the pot and took a deep breath. She hadn't had a normal hot meal for several days in a row. It was so delicious that she wanted to dive in and eat it all.

"Sister-in-law, your cooking skills are more than enough to serve as a chef in a big restaurant." Qin Yao praised with a smile.

"Go, go!" Mrs. He thought she was in the way and pushed it aside. "Take out the bowls and chopsticks. It's almost ready. Do you want to take them to the house to eat or eat in the courtyard?"

It's cool in the yard and bright in the house, each has its own advantages.

However, Qin Yao decisively chose the courtyard. It was almost June, and the wind in the mountains was dry. The hot soup noodles would definitely make you sweat profusely.

Wandering to the chopping board in the kitchen, she saw green vegetables in the basket. Qin Yao's eyes lit up and she hurriedly asked her sister-in-law to wait for a while before taking the pot out of the pot, and to wait for her to get the vegetables first.

"What did you eat all the way back?" He asked suspiciously.

It’s just a handful of green vegetables, so why does it look like a starving ghost reincarnated?

Qin Yao sighed while washing vegetables quickly: "Sister-in-law, you didn't know until you went out. All the edible grass outside was taken out. We didn't eat a single vegetable leaf on the way back."

Mrs. Qiu carried Da Mao, who had woken up, on a cloth belt and came to the kitchen to help. When he heard Qin Yao's words, he and Mrs. He looked at each other and said "tsk tsk" twice. This is too miserable.

I was also glad that I had stocked up on enough food at home early on, and even if I ate it with all my heart, there would still be a lot left over.

The thousand kilograms of wheat bought earlier have not been touched yet and have been stored in the granary.

He said pitifully to Qin Yao: "Then if you wash a few more vegetable leaves, we will have enough vegetables in the vegetable patch, so we don't have to save them."
