Chapter 20 Happy Day

"Understood, I've prepared dinner, and seeing that you didn't come back at noon, I think you should come to our house to pay taxes soon, so your parents didn't ask you to come home. The meal has just been prepared, and it's time for you to come back." Lancao While talking, he brought water out to wash his hands.

"Brother, you are even better. You guessed it right away. It's amazing." Lan Jia imitated a fortune teller and counted with her fingers, then gave Lan Tao a thumbs up, still muttering.

Lan Tao is sorry, the whole family looked at Lan Jia's funny look, which made the whole family laugh out loud.

Lan Dazhi is so happy to see his family. It is rare to pay taxes on such a happy day. In previous years, because of paying taxes, there is not much food left in the family, and he will feel very bad. I will work hard in the future so that the whole family will not be hungry. Belly, live a carefree life and live a happy life.

Lancao walked in and scooped up the food and put it on the small table. Lan Jia walked in and saw the hot food, her eyes lit up, and she couldn't help swallowing. The rice made of brown rice and sorghum was hard to swallow, but now It looked delicious, Lan Dazhi came in and sat down to talk about eating, Lan Jia began to eat big mouthfuls, eating rice made of brown rice and sorghum when hungry, it turned out that it could be so delicious.

It was already one o'clock in the afternoon after Lan Dazhi's family had dinner. Lan Dazhi and Lan Wu went to bed tired, and Lan Cao also went to do embroidery.

"Brother, when did Mom and Dad get up last night?" Lan Jia asked when she saw Lan Tao.

"I don't know, it's just that everyone has paid the tax, so I feel relieved. If you do one thing, you will lose one thing. I am afraid that it will rain, and the wheat will reappear. It is too troublesome to go to the drying yard to dry the wheat. , so although I feel reluctant to use the plump wheat to pay the tax, there will still be a lot of troubles, it is better to pay the tax with peace of mind. In order to pay the tax, people in the village are queuing up earlier and earlier to pay the tax , You see, father and mother have handed over the wheat, are they more at ease? After the busy farming season, they have paid the tax. Many adults plan to go to the town to do some work to supplement the family and make the family live more easily. Our father also I have to find a job, but my father earns less money than others."

"Why? My father is so capable, how can he earn less money than others? Those who hire people are really blind." Lan Jia shouted excitedly, arguing for her father.

"Second, keep your voice down."

"Brother, I'm very angry now, can you keep your voice down?" Lan Jia's tone was still aggrieved by Lan Dazhi's lack of money.

"Argh, you've forgotten a lot of things now, Dad."

"My father is the best." Lan Jia pouted.

"Erya, I know your father is the best. Telling you has confused me. Your father is not my father. What are we earning?"

"That's right, the older brother is getting more and more confused." Lan Jia pointed at Lan Tao and laughed, suddenly remembering that her parents were still sleeping, she quickly covered her mouth with her hand, and finally calmed down after a while.

"Brother, you talk and talk, and I listen carefully."

"Don't interrupt."

"Understood." Seeing Lan Jia nodded.

"Because in our family, there are very few people around. Look at your mother, eldest sister, and Erya, you are all women. Although I am a man, I am still too young to protect my family. Dad is worried about the safety of the family. Don’t worry about spending the night outside, you have to go home at night. There are restrictions on this condition, so there are fewer things to do, and of course, less money to earn. Sometimes my father can’t find anything to do, and my father will make up at home. Carrying strings, baskets, baskets and other things to buy, but many people can make these things by themselves, but they are not so good at weaving. Make a network to subsidize the family." Lan Tao slowly told Lan Jia the source of the family's finances.

"Brother, how many eggs does our family have?"

"I don't know, let's go and count." Lan Tao took Lan Jia to the place where the eggs were placed and the two of them counted a total of twenty eggs.

"Erya has twenty eggs, that's a lot! By the way, I forgot to cook them during the busy farming season. I asked my elder sister to cook them for us at night, and I got hungry just talking about them." Lan Tao said softly to Lan Jia.

"Brother, I want to say that there are two hens laying eggs in our family, which can also make money. Brother, do you think the eggs are delicious?"

"good to eat!"

"Would you like to eat more eggs?"

"Think, there are!"

"If we raise more chickens, there will be eggs to eat."

"Our family doesn't have that much food, how can we feed it?"

"You can go outside and pull some grass to feed. You don't need to feed the food at home. As long as mother pays to buy the chickens, my brother and I pull grass to feed the chickens every day, okay?"

"Okay! Then when we are going to the market, if we find our mother to help us sell chickens, we must also do a little for the family."

Lancao came out and heard. "What effort?"

"This is a secret between my eldest brother and me. Would my eldest sister have scrambled eggs with leeks tonight?" Lan Jia asked Lancao.

"Okay! Sister, go and cut some leeks, you two remove them." Lancao went into the kitchen to find a sickle, Lan Tao and Lanjia followed Lancao, walked to the back of the house, and saw a lot of leeks, green and green, and green beans There are so many vegetables, bean pods, celery, and loofah, it is dazzling to see.

"Sister, father, and mother are amazing. We have grown so many vegetables that we can't eat them all. Why don't we buy them?" Lan Jia saw that some vegetables looked old.

"No one in our family has ever bought it, and this one can be sold for money." Lan Tao thought about it.

Lan Jia covered her head with her hands, oh!Buying Karma - if you have money, you don't know how to earn it.

They cut off a handful of bluegrass in a few strokes and carried them to the front of the house. Lan Jia and Lan Tao began to remove all the yellow leaves and the yellow leaves with the tips of the leeks.

"Brother, you said that when we go to the market, we should clean up the leeks and celery in the back, break the tender green beans, bean pods, and loofah, and buy them in a bag?" Lan Jia asked Lan Tao.

"This time we have to discuss it with our parents and elder sister, and try to get the consent of our father, mother, and elder sister." Lan Tao thought about how worried his father, mother, and elder sister were last time.

"Okay! Let's talk to father, mother, and eldest sister together."

The bluegrass is urging in the kitchen. "Lan Tao quickly wash the leeks."

"Okay!" Lan Tao scooped up half a tub of water with a ladle and washed it three times before washing it clean. Lan Tao hurriedly carried it to the stove, and Lan Tao went to light the fire.

Lancao cut up the leeks, cracked two eggs, and it seemed that there were a little less, and then cracked another egg, and put the egg away, and there was no sign of cracking any more eggs.Lancao scrambled eggs and leeks in a pan, and it smelled delicious.

Wanting to eat quickly, Lan Jia called out immediately. "Father and mother have eaten, and today there are scrambled eggs, which are delicious."
