Leisurely Farmer's Family: A Strong Man and His Broken Leg Son-in-law

On the second day, a rooster crowed, and in the dark courtyard, a dim light came on from a window!

Li Dongsheng carried the rolled-up bedding on his shoulders and carried some bamboo baskets filled with fine supplies, and put them together on the cart soaked in the cold dew in the courtyard.

Before locking the door, he glanced at the east room again, silently murmured a few words in his heart that only the soul could hear, and finally closed the door and locked it.

The cherry tree in the yard has sprouted delicate flower buds.

When Li Dongsheng pushed the cart past, he took advantage of the faint glow from the cold stars in the sky, carefully folded one off, stuffed it into the quilt, turned around and pushed the cart out of the courtyard.

...........................

Time flies by, and it’s already February 2 in a blink of an eye!

On February , the dragon raises its head!

The weather is also much warmer, and people who are no longer prone to freezing are shrinking.

On the morning of February 2nd, every household will make pancakes from the toad grass stall to ward off evil spirits and poisons, and protect against all diseases!

In the kitchen, everyone was sitting around the small table, each holding a pancake rolled with scallions. It was delicious!

The pancakes made from toad grass are glowing green, and when you bite into them, your mouth is full of bitterness, and then the aroma of wheat!

Liu Yu likes to eat this slightly bitter cake. Although it is a bit bitter, it is not astringent.

Nian hurriedly ate two pieces of pancakes and drank a bowl of sweet potato chips tea. He put the bowl on the table and refused Liu Yu to add another bowl!

"As I get older, I eat too much and can't digest it. This is enough!"

Liu Fusheng, who reached for the third pancake, paused and looked at the old woman speechlessly!

"Grandma, please don't listen to grandma. She's saving her belly for lunch!"

Liu Yu picked up a stack of two or three pancakes and placed them in the empty bowl in front of the old man!

"Your third aunt asked me to come with you to see my handsome brother. If she and Mrs. Ren can't agree on the betrothal gift, let alone food, I'm afraid she won't even have a cup of tea!"

Nian waved his hand, went back to the house, changed into his cleanest and most decent clothes, told Liu Fusheng a few words, turned around and left!

"It's not like Brother Xian and Brother Three have never met before in the same village, and they still have to look at each other!"

Liu Yu picked up the tea bowl in front of him, raised his head and drank the whole bowl of sweet potato chip tea!

"You're talking nonsense again. Getting married is such a big thing, you have to follow the process, meet each other, get engaged, choose an auspicious date, then make an appointment, and finally get married. Everyone else does it step by step, until your third brother's province No matter how frugal you are, people will criticize you if you mention it later!"

Liu Meixiang shook her head and corrected herself.

It was so troublesome, Liu Yu's head was spinning. Fortunately, she was already married, so no matter how troublesome the process was, it had nothing to do with her.

Liu Yu glanced at Chang Sheng, who was sitting next to him and drinking tea. It seemed that this man had saved a lot of steps in getting married to her, and he didn't even feel aggrieved when he thought about it!

Feeling that the people around him were staring at him, Chang Sheng put down his tea bowl and glanced at Liu Yu with some helplessness. This person was really a man. Grandpa and eldest sister were both here, so why were they staring at him so well?

"Haha, it's okay. Drink it quickly, don't let it get cold!"

Seeing that Changsheng was not able to eat well due to his influence, Liu Yu felt sorry and hurriedly urged him.

After breakfast, I fed the bamboo rats again. I saw that the bamboo rats were moving well and in good spirits, and I felt relieved.

Xiaoxue followed suit and followed closely behind the two of them. She also took two tender bamboo shoots and fed them to four smaller bamboo rats!

"Little uncle, uncle Changsheng, what are you doing later!"

Xiaoxue couldn't sit still. In the past, she usually fed the bamboo rats and went to Liu Maolin's house, looked at the two little kids, and played with Lu Yaqi brother for a long time!

"Let's go dig some wild vegetables!"

Liu Yu said casually that she ate pancakes from the Toad Grass stall today, and Liu Yu also wanted to eat cold shepherd's purse.

Now in early spring, some wild vegetables, such as toona sinensis, gray cabbage, goosegrass, pigweed, etc., will not appear until March, but shepherd's purse has already been available.

"Let's go dig in the Yuehe Valley. Yesterday, Brother Goudan said that there are a lot of wild vegetables there. If you're lucky, you can catch wild ducks laying eggs!"

Xiaoxue was wearing a blue floral blouse, smiling cheerfully, suddenly thinking of something, she pursed her lips again!

This child lost her front teeth a few days ago, and now she speaks in a leaky manner. She also knows that missing teeth does not look good. She has not spoken or smiled for the past two days, just for fear of someone making fun of her!

The Moon River is not a straight long river. On the contrary, it is very winding. Each turn is shaped like the arc of a crescent moon, so it is called the Moon River.

The Moon River is located in the westernmost part of the village, which is quite close to the villagers' farmland.

Because the water and grass grow all year round at the bend, the river beach is very wet and soft, not suitable for farming, but there are many reeds growing!

In the reed marsh, wild ducks often lay eggs here. The children in the village like this place very much. They often come here, hoping for good luck. It is best to catch a wild duck to satisfy their greed. It is also good to pick up two duck eggs. !

After covering the bamboo mat, he took out a backpack from the eaves, said hello to Liu Fusheng who was sitting in the morning light weaving a rattan basket, and the two adults and one child set off for Yuehe Ao!

The weather is fine today, and the February wind has been blowing on my face. It is much gentler than the biting pain.

Looking out from a distance, the fields are thickly green.

Nourished by the winter snow, every wheat seedling seems to be ready to go forward and move forward with all its strength.

Liuyu looked over the wheat fields and couldn't help but nod. The wheat seedlings, which were still a little sparse in the winter months, have grown into branches from the roots and are full of vitality!

Salad seedlings have already grown in the gaps between the wheat ridges. They need to be pulled out as soon as possible while the weather is good. Otherwise, if it rains, these wild vegetables will eat the wheat seedlings!

Keeping this in mind silently, the three of them went all the way to Yuehe Ao!

In the river recess, the reeds cut by the villagers in the old years sprouted from the roots again. Liu Yu took a look and saw that they had only grown to about her ankles.

Reed sprouts blanched in boiling water and served cold seems to be good too.

"Brother Goudan, why haven't you come yet?"

Xiaoxue looked around and couldn't help but stamped her feet when she didn't see Goudan!

There was a piece of Artemisia annua not far from the water. Liu Yu walked over and took a look, then turned back and sighed regretfully to Changsheng: "It's too small, otherwise you can pick it back and steam it to eat!"

Mr. Nian loves steamed vegetables. In previous springs, his family would cook steamed vegetables almost every day, including steamed astragalus, steamed wolfberry sprouts, steamed gray vegetables, steamed pigweed, steamed malan heads...!

In Nian's eyes, everything can be steamed.

Changsheng walked slowly along the Yuehe Concave in a circle, but he didn't go any further. There were acres of farmland over there. Except for the riverside, everything was planted with crops. It wasn't very nice to see!

"Come on, there are some wild duck eggs here!"

In a nest of reeds, a few green duck eggs lay quietly among them.

They didn't expect to actually pick up duck eggs. When they heard there were duck eggs, Liu Yu and Xiaoxue were very excited and hurriedly ran over.

"Be gentle with your feet, the soil is soft here! Be careful of your shoes getting stuck and walking where there are dead leaves!"

Seeing the two people running happily, Changsheng said hurriedly.

The duck eggs remained untouched until the two of them came over and counted them. They were even more happy when they saw that there were six duck eggs. There were so many, enough to fry a large plate!
