Chapter 73

After a while, Xiao Qi brought Li Ya to the door of her house, and found that her father's carriage had disappeared, so she obviously went straight into the house.

"Li Ya, let's go, let's go find Daddy." As soon as the voice on this side fell, Li Ya ran into the courtyard and disappeared in an instant.

Just as he was about to step in, out of the corner of his eye, he saw his grandfather walking slowly, and the two elder brothers followed behind with the hoes used for going down to the ground.

Xiaoqi ran a few steps to meet him, called out to his brothers, then hurriedly supported his grandfather with both hands, and brushed off the dirt that accidentally got on his body.

Seeing the tired-looking grandpa felt a little distressed, and glared at the elder brother and second brother who followed behind, "The elder brother and the second brother seem to be exhausting grandpa."

The elder brother Qingshan Qinghe who was suffering from an innocent disaster while walking, looked at each other in dismay, the fire was too wronged, if they could stop their grandfather, they would not be grandsons.

Then Xiaoqi said to her grandpa again, "Grandpa, next time I go to the field, I will direct my brothers to do it. Xiaoqi feels distressed when I look at it. Next time, Xiaoqi will go to the field with grandpa. Your granddaughter is strong enough to help." live."

Hearing what his granddaughter said, the old man seemed to be tired all of a sudden, and said with a smile on his face, "What can you do with your small body? You have strength, but you are not as tall as a hoe."

Hearing this, Xiaoqi pretended to be disobedient and said: "Who said that? Grandpa, I am already tall now. Besides, I know that I don't need to hoe the ground now. The grain has grown taller. In less than two months, I will grow taller." It's harvested."

"I'm afraid of you, okay, grandpa promises you, when you want to go, tell grandpa that you will take you to the field as well." After talking, the grandpa and grandson walked to the gate.

"Grandpa, be careful of the threshold." Helping grandpa to the outside of the bedroom in the backyard, Xiao Qi ran back to the room and moved a stool, "Grandpa, please sit and rest for a while, and I will fetch water for you to wash."

Qingshan Qinghe put the hoe in his hand into the utility room in the backyard, and after washing up, he just walked towards the bedroom when he heard the little girl coming towards him say "Huh!" The little girl would bully them, and the two laughed dumbfounded .

Quickly scooped up a basin of water from the water tank, went to the kitchen and asked the sisters-in-law for some hot water and poured it in. By the way, I glanced and found that my mother was not in the kitchen.

He brought a basin of water, and quickly came to Grandpa, not forgetting to take out Grandpa's face towel from the room, looked at Grandpa with admiration, and said, "Grandpa, wash it quickly."

Not long after, the child obediently put the washing water in front of him, and the old man instantly felt refreshed, his previous fatigue was gone, and a horrible smile appeared on his stiff face, he bent down happily and started to wash.

Just after washing here, Xiaoqi's face towel was handed over to him.

"Grandpa, sit down first, and I'll make tea with you." After finishing speaking, without waiting for Grandpa's answer, he went to the kitchen in the backyard with the teapot in his arms.

After a while, Xiao Qi held the brewed tea and poured a cup for his grandfather. Looking at his grandfather's satisfied expression after drinking the tea, Xiao Qi finally felt a lot more comfortable.

I feel ashamed when I think about it. Apart from being able to work together during the busy farming season, a large family depends on my grandfather and two older brothers for the rest of the time.

Dad and the third brother and nephew have to go to the academy every day, so they have no time to work in the fields.

All these heavy tasks are on the shoulders of grandpa. He has never heard grandpa cry out that he is tired, and even the eldest brother and second brother Xiao Qi have never heard them cry out that they are tired.

Thanks to my grandfather who figured it out a few years ago, he hired people during the busy season of sowing and harvesting. Otherwise, the tens of acres of land depended on grandpa and his two elder brothers alone, so he would not have fainted from exhaustion.

Knowing that grandpa likes to drink tea, the family buys a lot of new tea all year round. Although it is not very good tea, it is better than ordinary tea. This is also the only hobby of grandpa, and everyone is happy to get used to it.

The old man quickly drank three cups of tea, and when he wanted more, Xiao Qi took the teapot back and put it aside, "Grandpa, you can't drink too much at once, or you won't have stomach for dinner at night."

The old man glanced at his granddaughter, put down the teacup in his hand helplessly, and said with a broken smile: "Okay, listen to Xiaoqi, save your stomach for delicious food at night, little housekeeper, how can you grow up! I don't know Who can stand you."

Xiao Qi also laughed, her tone full of coquettishness, "Don't worry, Grandpa, I won't go anywhere when I grow up, I'll just stay with Grandpa and my parents, with you here, no one dares to bully me."

"That can't be done, grandpa is still waiting to see you get married and have children, and then become a grandpa?" The old man withdrew his smile and said seriously.

In his eyes, his granddaughter is too smart. Don't look at her as a young person who understands everything. She is so mature. He is really afraid that what her granddaughter said is true, and he can't agree to it.

Maybe other people would feel shy when they heard their grandfather say that, but this was not seen in Xiao Qi, she looked at the old man calmly.

Hearing what Grandpa said, Xiao Qi looked at Grandpa seriously with big clear eyes, "Grandpa, I don't understand, do women have to get married?
Once a woman marries into her husband's family, she will lose herself, respect her parents-in-law, and serve her husband's children. These are not what I want.If I don't meet someone like Daddy, I'd rather not get married, mainly because I'm afraid that if I don't meet my beloved, I'll accidentally punch him to death. "

The old man was speechless for a while when asked by his granddaughter, he didn't know how to answer for a while, and he didn't speak for a while.

"Xiaoqi, grandpa knows that you have been extremely intelligent since you were a child, but how can there be anything perfect in this world? This world is not fair, and the survival of women is more difficult than that of men.

It is possible for a woman not to get married, and she can still follow her parents when she is young, but what about when her parents are not around?Who is willing to treat you sincerely without his own flesh and blood?Who is willing to leave an inch of space for you.

Grandpa knows that you are an exception, able to support yourself, and even live a better life than many men, but grandpa still hopes that when you are old, you can have children and grandchildren around your knees like grandpa, enjoying the family happiness. "

"Pfft...Grandpa, are we talking too far? How old am I! Hahahaha" Xiao Qi pretended not to hold back his laughter.

Only Xiao Qi knows that behind this smile there is no lack of sadness for women in this era.

They can only be vassals behind the man's back, and cannot have their own thoughts and hobbies. They have been educated since childhood to regard filial piety as the most important thing, regard their husband as the sky, and regard their son as the most precious.

The old man also laughed, "That's right, how old are you? You've been misleading me."

"How can you blame me? Grandpa thinks too much." Xiao Qi mischievously tugged at the old man's beard.

"Hey, hey...don't pull it, and then you'll take off the beautiful beard that grandpa left behind so hard." The old man protected his beard with agility, and patted his granddaughter's palm lightly.

"Hahahaha..." The old man had a rare childish look, and seeing Xiaoqi really laughed happily.

The almond-core eyes, as black as black jade, are bent into a crescent moon, and twinkling stars can be vaguely seen.

While joking, Lu Shengzhi came over, "Grandpa, little aunt, grandpa told us to go to the front yard and said that we are going to go to the grain drying field. I won't be with you, grandpa. I have to call my mother and the others."

The old and the young heard that they were going to the grain drying field, and at the same time suppressed the smiles on their faces, and Xiao Qi swiftly put the tea bowl and teapot into the house.

Even though he knew that his grandfather was still very strong, after many years of habit, he subconsciously helped him stand up and put the stool in the corner of the main room.

After tidying up, he clapped his hands and smiled sweetly at Grandpa, "Grandpa, let's go."

 I am very much looking for all kinds of tickets, please collect them, and please continue to support me, *. (ˊωˋ*)*.
