Chapter 6

Lan Jia: "I know." I couldn't take it anymore, the elder brother was a little worried when he heard that the younger sister memorized many things. "I'll take my little sister home, and I'll be back soon."

Dad looked at Lan Tao. "Better to Erya than to his father." The dust was too heavy, so Mother ignored Dad.Lan Tao took Liu Lanjia to walk quickly, sent Lan Jia home, and hurried to the drying yard.

At about seven o'clock, Lan Jia saw her eldest brother and mother coming back, and then went to see if her father hadn't come back, and her mother took a look. "Your father helped Lin Mao's family pick up wheat." The elder sister cooked the rice in the earthen pot, filled it with food for two, and the elder sister and elder brother sent it to father.I came back in half an hour, and brought back all the crocks, bowls, and chopsticks.After the eldest brother had eaten, he went to the drying yard to watch again.Lan Jia saw that the whole family was so tired, so she didn't dare to ask her mother to change her name. When she was tired, she was in a bad mood, and she was afraid that my mother would take care of me. Just think about it in my heart, and I will talk about it later. Today, I was too tired and fell asleep on the kang. When we got up the next day, my mother had already cooked the rice and asked us to eat. Lan Jia saw that her father and elder brother hadn't come.

"Father is still guarding the wheat in the drying yard, and Lan Tao came back to sleep in the middle of the night." The eldest sister said quietly, and I nodded slightly.

Hurry up and eat, let's go to guard, so that Dad can come back and sleep.

After dinner, my mother went to watch, Lan Jia and Lancao went to our house where the wheat was harvested yesterday, picked up wheat cockroaches, and carried a big basket. , with a basket full, Lan Jia and Lancao went home happily.

Lan Tao just got up to eat, and Lan Jia just opened her mouth to call big brother loudly, Lan Cao put down the basket and quickly covered it with her hands. "Keep your voice down, don't wake up dad, he just fell asleep." Lan Jia nodded.Lancao let go of her hand.

Lan Tao had eaten. "Erya, let's go to the drying yard, and the mother-in-law will come back and do other things."

"Okay." Lan Jia nodded.

Lan Tao took Lan Jia's hand and walked to the drying yard. "I finally got a good night's sleep, and my whole body is full of strength. I was so tired yesterday that I couldn't breathe, and I finally recovered after a good night's sleep."

Lan Jia thinks that Lan Tao is still so young, and doing many things is already beyond Lan Tao's tolerance. In modern times, his father and mother would never let them do so many things. At most, they should do some light things, such as washing Bowls, sweep the floor, tidy up your room.

Especially the children of poor families can’t get enough to eat. If they are lazy, they will have no way to live. You can see how sensible, considerate and caring the children of this family are, so the children of poor families are sensible early on.

Lan Jia gently patted Lan Tao's back. "My eldest brother is very capable."

"Brother is a man, he is not afraid of getting tired and recovering after a sleep." Lan Tao smiled happily.Soon Lan Jia Lantao walked to the drying yard. The drying yard was very dusty, like a thick fog in winter, making it difficult to see people clearly. The place where we dry our wheat.

When Lan Wu saw Lan Jia covering her nose, she was very angry. Lan Jia had been ill for a long time this time, and her body had not fully recovered, so she said loudly. "What did Lan Tao bring my little girl here for? She was picking up wheat and throwing ashes everywhere. It was so dirty. Seeing how much you care about Er Ya, I don't know how to think about it."

Lan Tao looked at Lan Wu with resentment, his wholehearted concern for Lan Jia was absolutely true, without any adulteration, and he blamed himself for not thinking about it, he was used to being with Lan Jia every day, wherever he went It will pull Lan Jia, seeing one but not the other is strange.

"Mother is fine, I want to accompany elder brother myself." Lan Jia was choked by the dust so badly, her body was covered with wheat ash, and her skin was still itchy.

Lan Tao's face was full of apology, and he felt so sorry. "Mother won't come next time, mother quickly take the little girl home." Lan Tao urged Lan Wu and Lan Jia to leave quickly.

I was so moved that I was so choked up that I couldn't speak. With the care of my family, my heart was filled with beauty. It's great to have such a family.Maybe it's because I did a lot of good deeds in my previous life and got rewarded in this life.

There is a lot of dust on Lan Wu's hair, even in the nose, and the whole body is covered with wheat dust, only a pair of eyes can be seen rolling.In such an uncomfortable place, Lan Wu's stay was very uncomfortable all morning, because this year's harvest was good, and his face looked very happy. For the food of the whole family, if he persisted, there are really infinite possibilities for people to survive.

Lan Wu's Lan Jia walked out of the drying yard. "Erya went to the front and stayed away from mother. Mother slapped some dust off, and my whole body felt very uncomfortable."

Lan Jia ran away immediately, and saw Lan Wu clapping with her hands, and a lot of dust was photographed, and there were still some that could not be photographed behind. "Mother, you squat down, and Erya will pat mother. Mother is too hard, and it is not easy to collect food. From now on, I will cherish every grain." Lan Wu squatted down, Lan Jia patted the dust off her back, and her hair Pat lightly.

Lan Wu stood up and walked home with Lan Jia. "It's finally much more comfortable. You didn't get up when Erya came, and you didn't sleep all night. Your father must be very uncomfortable."

"When my eldest brother and I left, my father hadn't gotten up yet and was still sleeping. My eldest sister and I picked up all the wheat in the field. After picking up such a big basket of wheat, my eldest sister said that I don't need to take it to the drying yard, but I can make it at home. Good." Lan Jia gestured with her hands with a smile on her face.

"There is a lot of wheat in the drying yard. I beat it with a laundry stick at home, and it will come out in a while. The wheat in the drying yard will be dried tonight. Remove the wheat dregs inside, and choose the plumpest wheat to pay the tax at that time. In order to avoid the big trouble of paying taxes at that time, because people from every household have to queue up, there are so many people, and it is hard to get in. If they fail to pass, they will go back and withdraw, and queue up again to pay taxes, and there is even more trouble. Yes, it is possible to evacuate the wheat, and the tax collectors go to other villages to collect taxes. They have to go to the town to pay the taxes. Because it will delay a lot of time, and the next season's cultivation will not be able to keep up with the season, and you won't understand what Erya said, but you will know when you grow up." Lan Wu said these words naggingly.

Lan Jia listened carefully to what Lan Wu said. It turns out that paying taxes is so complicated. It seems to be a very common thing with many procedures.Life in the countryside is really not easy.

I saw smoke coming from the stove in our house. It is about twelve o'clock now. The elder sister is already cooking. She is a very sensible child, and she will take the initiative to do things at home.

Lan Jia ran into the kitchen. "Sister, I'm back. I'll light the fire. I cook bacon today. It's so delicious." Lancao has already cooked the rice, and finally cooked dry rice. Lan Jia has never eaten dry rice here, so it makes people feel greedy. The cooking oil is more than usual, probably because the whole family is tired than usual, so they have energy.

Seeing Lan Dazhi walk into the kitchen, the rice was ready, only one vegetable was not cooked. "Erya is lighting the fire, and now she knows how to do things. She is so capable, and so is Lancao." With a slight smile, she scooped up the rice and chopsticks, and just waited for the elder sister to stir-fry the dishes and bring them to the small table. Lan Dazhi started to eat.
