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

After lunch, a few people rested for a while and then started to prepare to go back.

It was late autumn at this time, and it was getting darker day by day. On the way back, we were carrying heavy loads on our backs, so it was inevitable to stop on the way, so we had to leave enough time to avoid rushing in the mountains in the dark.

There were five people in Liu Yu's group. Except for Liu Yu who brought two sacks, the other four people only had one sack. In order to save themselves, they carefully hid the backpacks they carried when they came.

Each person started down the mountain carrying a sack full of walnuts.

Liu Yu threw a sack of walnuts onto her shoulders by herself, and Liu Maoye helped lift another sack onto her shoulders.

"Can you do it? If not, let's carry this bag back tomorrow." Liu Maoye used all his strength to lift the sack, but asked Liu Yu if he couldn't.

"Third uncle, hurry up. I can do it. This weight can't hold me down." Liu Yu urged.

"It's really good, but don't hold on." Mother-in-law Liu Maoye babbled for fear of hurting her little nephew.

"Hurry up, I want to grow eight arms, and I can help carry yours back." Liu Yu said helplessly.

Finally, everyone picked up their own bags of walnuts. Liu Yu had a good memory. Children who grew up in the mountains rarely got lost on the mountain roads. He took the lead and walked in front, carrying a sack of walnuts on each shoulder.

Holding the sack with both hands, head first, the wind is blowing under your feet.

The first stop they encountered was the creek they came from. They couldn't help but put down their sacks, took off their shoes, took off their socks, and rolled up their trouser legs.

Seeing that they were embarrassed, Liu Yu simply moved the sacks over one by one. The few of them waded through the stream in light clothes, dried their feet for a while and continued on their way.

The road behind was much smoother, just because we had to take a few more detours to avoid the piles of rocks and the bushes that were impassable.

The sixty-seven kilograms of linen bag was okay at first, but by the time the people behind them were holding their breath, they were walking down the mountain. Liu Fan and Liu Yan asked to rest several times, but Liu Yu refused.

"We'll rest in the forest above the bamboo forest. We can rest for as long as we want. Once we lose our breath, our progress will be slowed down."

Perhaps because they had hope, Liu Fan and others gritted their teeth and persisted. Finally, when they saw the bamboo forest in the distance, Liu Yu stopped at a flat and sheltered place.

"call!"

Several people slid down the sacks on their shoulders. They all rubbed their shoulders, bent over and cried out in pain.

"My arms, legs, and waist are about to fall apart." Liu Maoye thumped his back and kept humming.

"Third uncle, you are not old. Be careful if your brothers hear the joke." Liu Yu sat leisurely on the stone and tapped her leg lightly.

"Your grandpa and grandma are willing to give you whatever you want to eat. How can you be so strong?" Liu Maoye always heard family members talk about how strong his nephew was. He often saw Liu Yu using his strongest strength when pulling the plow.

He really didn't expect that he could carry two sacks of walnuts on the mountain road without blushing or out of breath. He was really convinced.

"Okay, let's go back. The more we rest, the more tired we will become. Don't talk about carrying a bag of walnuts later. I'm afraid you won't be able to carry half the bag."

Liu Maoye, who was already exhausted from work, signaled Liu Shan to help him put the sack on the other free shoulder.

"Let's go."

Liu Yu gave the order, and several people had to cheer up and start moving forward.

When we turned out of the bamboo forest, it was already a little dark. On the road, we occasionally met one or two villagers returning home late from work, and asked them what they had carried down from the mountain.

I heard that walnuts were picked from the mountains.

Judu was a little disappointed. They relied on the mountains to eat. There were some rare nuts for people who were far away from the mountains. They could pick up a lot of them by going into the mountains.

This bite of seasonal food is not unusual for them, and they have to go all the way down from the mountain, which is not tiring enough.

Before winter comes, go to the mountains to pick up some. Except for those who are really short of food, most villagers can just pick up enough for the New Year. After all, eating too much of this stuff will make you angry.

A few people came down from the mountain and went to Liu Yu's house first. They had a cup of tea and rested their legs before being sent back to eat by Nian.

If her daughter-in-law and grandson-in-law pass by for a rest, she might be polite and leave them a meal. They are all her own children and grandchildren. It is not easy for her to earn some money and food in this world. She has no choice but to serve these men who do not enter the kitchen. Eat and drink.

"Uncle Third, come to my house after you have eaten. Let's try how these fried walnuts taste." After Liu Yu said what he wanted to say, he waved to a few people.

As soon as the people left, Nian lit the oil lamp in the main room, and while bringing the meal to the main room, he said: "Mr. Zhao came to the house today and said that Changsheng has recovered well and the swelling in his feet has gone away a lot. If he keeps going like this, he will be fine by the end of the year." I can walk slowly on the ground.”

"Really, did Dr. Zhao prescribe medicine again?"

Liu Yu was very happy when he heard this. It was already the end of September, which meant that Changsheng would be able to walk on the ground in three months. Three months was still very fast.

"I've prescribed some medicinal materials to replenish qi and blood. I'll ask your grandpa to buy some pig's trotters and stew them tomorrow. This is called replenishing whatever you eat." The old lady handed the tray with Changsheng rice to Liu Yu and asked He served it to Changsheng.

On the tray was a bowl full of egg custard, two large white-flour steamed buns, a plate of pickles, and a bowl of thick sweet potato chip tea.

Liu Yu brought the tray to Changsheng's room and brought a basin of water for Changsheng to clean his hands.

"Eat it while it's hot, food will get cold quickly in the cold weather." After Liu Yu was about to go out, she saw Changsheng Qian Ai'ai's expression under the light.

"What's wrong!" Liu Yu sat back at the kang table and asked softly.

"It's okay, I can't finish eating so much, so you can eat too." After Chang Sheng finished speaking, he lowered his head and started to scoop out the egg custard.

Liu Yu was stunned for a moment. Seeing Changsheng's evasive appearance, she asked tentatively: "Do you want me to eat with you?"

I feel a little ashamed again. There is no place where I feel uncomfortable in this home, but it is different for Changsheng. These days, because of my leg injury, my diet is incompatible with this family. I think it is difficult to have food. .

It was my own negligence.

"Wait a minute." Liu Yu stood up and left after saying that.

Changsheng was about to stop Liu Yu and tell him that he had no intention of doing so, but when he stretched out his hand, he didn't even catch a piece of Liu Yu's clothes.

Just when he was a little confused about what to do, he suddenly heard a noise coming from the next door. He looked up and saw Liu Yu stepping into the house carrying a bowl of sweet potato chip tea and two steamed buns.

"I'll eat with you." Liu Yu put his rice on the Kang table and smiled at Changsheng.

Looking at Liu Yu like this, Changsheng's eyes suddenly became hot, and he hurriedly covered his eyes with his hands. Tears still fell down from his fingers as he spoke.

Liu Yu was crying silently when she saw the person in front of her. She was at a loss. She hurriedly got up and walked to Chang Sheng, hurriedly wiping her tears.

The more he wiped it, the more Changsheng's tears grew. Unable to do anything, Liu Yu tentatively held Changsheng to her chest, gently stroking his soft hair with her hands, and sighed heavily in her heart.
