The eldest brother pulled the second brother out of the mud, and the two of them ran home as if their lives depended on it.

The mysterious man was very satisfied with such a scene, but it was a pity that his master couldn't see it with his own eyes, otherwise his wages would have increased even more.

Nier thought it would be better not to tell her father that her uncle and second uncle were here just now, otherwise he might be worried.

Although Daddy doesn't get along with his two brothers, when something like this happens, they are still worried. After all, they are brothers and have a deep bond.

But I guess only Dad would think this way. If it was Dad who was trapped on the mountain today, those two people probably wouldn’t worry at all and would just sleep soundly at home.

The third brother should have been able to see them on the mountain just now, but the eldest and second brothers ran too fast, and Hei Tian could not see far away, so he did not notice that the people in front were his two brothers.

I just wondered how could someone run so fast in such weather with mud on the ground? I felt my feet were about to sink into the mud and it was so difficult to take each step. I really admire those two people.

Nier thought it was a good idea this way, as it would avoid the embarrassment of meeting each other.

Furthermore, it is very likely that after they meet, they will both find out that it was them who were playing tricks in the bush just now, and they will be completely relieved.

Lao San and Ni'er walked to the foot of the mountain and the most difficult part of the road was over.

Ni'er refused to let her father carry her on his back anymore. She saw beads of sweat on her father's neck and probably on his forehead as well.

I just couldn't free my hands to wipe it. I must have been tired. Even though I was just a child, it was not easy to carry him all the time.

"Dad, you see we are at the foot of the mountain now. The road is much easier to walk on. Please put me down."

The third brother, however, refused to put her down. He thought his daughter's weight was nothing and each time he carried her it was one less thing. When she grew up, he would no longer have the chance to carry her again.

"It's okay, Daddy is not tired. This place is not far from home, we will be there soon, just stay here quietly."

I turned my head slightly, afraid that my daughter couldn't hear me clearly.

"The shoes will be even dirtier when you come down, and it's hard to wash them."

Ni'er was amused by her father's words. She didn't want to come down, so she came up with such a lame excuse.

"It doesn't matter if it's easy to wash or not. Just wash it slowly. It's already dirty. I feel sorry for Daddy."

The third brother used his arms to exert force and held down Ni'er who was about to move.

"Of course I know you feel bad for me, but Daddy just wants to carry you on his back."

That's all he wants. Ni'er said nothing more and continued to lie on her father's back with peace of mind. There won't be many times like this, so she enjoys it as long as she can.

I originally thought that Daddy would be tired and would have to come down even if he had to twist and turn, but now it seems that it is better for him not to come down.

Hehe, Daddy's back is so warm. I buried my face in it and sniffed. It’s the smell of Daddy’s sweat mixed with the smell of rain. It’s a little strange at first, but after smelling it a few times, I get used to it. It makes me feel at ease.

I remember when I was a child, I couldn’t sleep because of mosquitoes in the summer, and my father would comfort me by holding a large leaf picked up from the ground as a fan.

I fell asleep easily while fanning myself and singing songs. The familiar smell lingered in my nose, as if I was back in that summer.

I didn’t feel that life was hard before, even with the beatings and scoldings from my grandma and the teasing from my rich husband.

I feel very good to have a father and mother who love me. Now I feel more and more that the days I spent at grandma's house were just a dream, and I will only become happier and happier.

Nier couldn't help but hum the song that her father used to sing to put her to sleep.

When the third child heard Ni'er humming a song, he couldn't help but join in. It had been a long time since he sang this song to his daughter.

I was feeling a little tired, but suddenly I felt energized.

The two of them sang in unison and walked to the door of their home.

Yan Zi originally wanted to make some ginger soup. Lao San and Ni'er were drenched by the rain and had been outside in the wind for so long, so they would catch a cold.

Niu Li saw his mother went to the kitchen and felt a little worried, so he followed her.

"Mom, what are you going to do?"

Yan Zi picked up a piece of ginger, scooped up a bucket of water, put it into the basin, washed the ginger, put it on the chopping board, turned to Niu Li and said, "I'll make some ginger soup. It's easy to make and will be ready in a while. You can go back to the house."

Daddy hasn't let Mom go to the kitchen recently. It would be terrible if he saw this.

That mouth will keep chattering until my mother repeatedly assures her that she won't go, and then she will stop. It's really a headache.

I don’t want to go through this again. It’s just ginger soup, I should be able to make it myself.

"Mom, I'll do it. You go back to the house and rest."

Yan Zi would never let such a young child hold a knife and cut his hand, which would be a waste of time.

"It's okay. I'll definitely finish it before your father comes back and won't let him see it. Then I'll say it was you who did it."

Niu Li waved his hands quickly, and his head was almost shaking like a rattle.

"That won't do. What if my dad asks me to make another bowl? If he finds out that we lied, the consequences will be disastrous."

Thinking of this, I hugged my shoulders and couldn't help but shudder.

"If he doesn't dare to do anything to you, I'll be miserable. Mom, please don't hurt me."

Yan Zi felt that Niu Li's words made sense. The third child hated liars the most. She had taught her two children since they were young that they must not do such things. She actually took the lead. What kind of mother is she?

It is really wrong to hold the third brother back and sabotage him.

Seeing that his mother was hesitating, Niu Li should take this opportunity to say a few more words. He should be able to achieve his goal. As long as his mother was not working in the kitchen, everything would be fine.

He walked forward a few steps, stood in front of Yan Zi, raised his head, blinked, and looked directly into the other's eyes.

"Mom, just let me do it. Didn't you say it's easy? I can learn quickly if you teach me."

There is no other way. If the third brother catches me busying myself in the kitchen, my ears will be covered with calluses today. I can't take this risk.

"Okay, you must have seen your father make this before. I'll wash it, and you can just cut it into slices."

Niu Li had done a lot of work in the kitchen, but he had rarely held a knife before. Lao San and Yan Zi were afraid that the children would get hurt, so they almost never let them touch these things.

But Niu Li has grown up now, so it won’t be a big problem for him to try to do some work in this area. Besides, the knife is not that heavy.

Under Yan Zi's instruction, Niu Li carefully cut the slices one by one. The size, thickness and thickness were very uniform. It didn't look like he was cutting it the first time, but the speed was a little slow. However, this was already very good.

Yan Zi sat on a small stool and added firewood to the stove. The water quickly boiled and bubbled up. She just put the chopped ginger in it and simmered it slowly.
