Reborn in the 60s and adopted

Tang Mei had been bending over to plant rice seedlings, but as a child her waist could not hold out for long. As soon as she stood up she heard two people in the rice fields on both sides of the field making eye contact with her.

"What's wrong, sister?" Tang Mei pulled her feet out of the mud with great difficulty and walked forward step by step with great effort.

Wang Ran and Pei Yanyan did not take the initiative to go over as usual. Today the scorer was not far away from them, so they had to wait for Tang Mei to come closer.

"Meimei, slow down, or you can just not come over. We can talk about it when we get home in the evening." Pei Yanyan said.

"It's okay, sister. I'm just passing by your side, on the upper ridge."

After several minutes, he finally walked up to them.

"Sister, tell me something." Tang Mei asked curiously.

"My cousin is coming to stay for a few days. Can... can you stay with us and he stays in your room?" Pei Yanyan felt a little embarrassed. They were both staying here as guests, and now there was going to be one more person joining them.

"No problem. When will he come?" Tang Mei asked.

"I don't know either. Yesterday's telegram should have been sent in the last few days."

"Okay. I'll go back first." She went up to the shore, rinsed the mud off her feet, and picked up her cloth shoes, planning to go back and cook the meal first, and then Third Aunt would come back to cook.

Tang Mei walked to the door of her house and was about to take out the key to open it when she heard footsteps behind her.

"Xiao Mei, there are guests at your house." The village chief called Tang Mei with a smile.

"Oh, Grandpa Village Chief, you're here." Tang Mei opened the door neatly and let the village chief in first.

"Hello, little sister." A refreshing voice ran into Tang Mei's ears.

The boy's fair skin set off his light pink lips, handsome and prominent facial features, and an extremely perfect face shape. He was wearing a pure white shirt, and he looked dignified and noble like a prince. Tang Mei couldn't stop staring at him, not wanting to let go of such a good color.

"Haha, Xiaomei, let the guests in." Village chief.

"Ah. Hello, hello, please come in." Tang Mei was a little embarrassed. When she came to her senses, her face turned red.

Lin Xiao on the opposite side looked at the little girl who was a few years younger than him. She had a pair of beautiful eyes like crystal grapes and long eyelashes. She blushed when she saw him. He couldn't help but want to tease her.

"Am I good-looking?"

"Yeah, brother is handsome." Tang Mei called out unconsciously in a voice that sounded so sweet to herself, and almost scared herself.

"Xiao Meizi, go and get this brother a glass of sugar water. He is Pei Zhiqing's cousin." After giving the order, the village chief introduced them.

"Okay." Tang Mei also wanted to escape from here. She felt that she was abnormal. In her previous life, she was already over 40 years old. How could she have lusty thoughts about a little kid? No, no, she just liked to look at good-looking people.

After a while, Tang Mei came out with two bowls of sugar water, but the village chief was not there.

"You go find the village chief. He said he is very busy and has to leave first. Let me go with you... to get familiar with the place." Lin Xiao.

"Oh, okay, then, drink some water." Tang Mei handed him the cup.

Lin Xiao took the water and asked, "Do you know where my cousin is?"

"She is planting rice in the field now."

The smile on Lin Xiao's face faded a little, as if it was an illusion, and then he smiled again.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Lin Xiao. What's yours?"

"I'm Tang Mei."

"Haha, what a great name. I wasn't wrong just now, Xiao Meimei." Lin Xiao said with a smile.

Tang Mei looked at the sunny boy in front of her and felt a little overwhelmed by his beauty.

"Um, um, you haven't eaten, right? I haven't eaten either. Oh, no, we haven't eaten yet. I'm going to cook." Tang Mei seemed a little incoherent and hurried to the kitchen.

Lin Xiao looked at the little girl who ran away. He felt that she was embarrassed to face strangers. Thinking that he would have to stay here for a few more days, he raised his foot and followed her in.

Tang Mei was standing on a bench, preparing to get some water from the jar to pour into the pot, when the ladle in her hand was suddenly taken away by someone.

"Why are you taking my ladle?" Tang Mei said unhappily as she looked at Lin Xiao who had followed her in at some point.

"I see you are too short. I'm afraid you can't reach it. Get up and scoop some water." After saying this, he scooped up several scoops of water as if he wanted to show off how long his arms were.

"That's enough, that's enough, I'm just cleaning the pot, why would I need so much water?" The pot that burns wood needs to be cleaned before use, otherwise there will be a lot of ash. Tang Mei felt a little sorry for the amount of water. Although there is water now, it is not the hottest time yet. What if there is no water in the well in the future?

"Well, I didn't know that I wouldn't need so much." Lin Xiao touched his nose, feeling very embarrassed that he had made things more complicated than necessary.

"It's okay. You've never done this kind of work before, so I understand. If you want to help, go back and make a fire," Tang Mei suggested.

"Okay." Lin Xiao sat down under the stove, filled the stove with firewood, and then lit it with a match.

Suddenly the whole house was filled with smoke, choking Tang Mei so much that she couldn't open her eyes.

"Hey, you, move aside. It's my mistake. You're from the city. How could you, like Sister Ran, have ever used a rural earthen stove?" After saying that, she squeezed aside Lin Xiao who was refusing to give up his seat.

Lin Xiao was not angry even though she squeezed him. He just learned silently and was sure to do it better next time.
