Seeing that his son was unwilling to wake up, Ji Qinglan slapped his little butt in annoyance.

"Get up, little brat. The sun is shining on your butt. Your Uncle Xiao and Aunt Xiao are coming over."

Ji Xincheng opened his eyes dazedly, glanced at his mother, then closed his eyes again and pretended to be asleep.

Ji Qinglan found it very funny. He picked the person up and put him standing on the ground.

"Today, mom made your favorite臊子面. Are you really not going to get up? I'll give it all to your uncle Xiao."

Only after the situation became realistic did Ji Xincheng reluctantly open his eyes and hugged his mother to wake himself up. Two minutes later, he allowed Ji Qinglan to pull him out of the room to wash up.

After washing up, Ji Xincheng started his work, which was feeding the chickens.

He dragged out the small broken basin under the firewood pile, which contained the earthworms he raised.

A few years passed, Ji Xincheng grew up, but his hobby remained unchanged. He liked to collect all kinds of insects and catch earthworms himself to feed the chickens.

He used two thin wooden sticks to pick out the earthworms one by one and threw them to the two old hens that had been singing for a long time. He threw five or six earthworms in a row. Then he went to the vegetable garden and picked up a few handfuls of withered vegetables and threw them on the ground.

This is all the chicken feed for the day. Whether the chickens can be full depends entirely on the two old hens going to the woods to forage for food every day.

I don’t know if I’m full or not, but being hardworking is not a bad thing.

After feeding the chickens, Ji Xincheng took the broom that his mother had made for him and started sweeping the floor. When Liu Yumei left yesterday, she helped to sweep the yard, so he took the broom to clean the room.

At such a young age, he can already help his mother with the housework. On the roof, Xiao Hei climbed up at some point, curled up his chubby body, facing the morning sun, looking very comfortable.

From a distance it looks like a big black ball.

In the kitchen, Ji Qinglan was already preparing the stir-fry ingredients. She put oil in the bottom of the pot and sautéed ginger, garlic and scallion until fragrant. She added the minced meat and stir-fried until it changed color. She then added the chopped chrysanthemum, black fungus and dried tofu and stir-fried evenly. Finally, she poured in the broth and simmered it.

Then she added various seasonings. She only had homemade chili powder and pepper powder, as well as vinegar, soy sauce and salt.

Xiao Yi has a big appetite, so she cooks a lot.

This dish is simple to make. Just cook the臊子, put the drained noodles into a bowl, pour the cooked broth and fried egg on top, sprinkle with two soul-enhancing chopped green onions, and you can eat it at any time.

When Xiao Yi and Xiao Qing came over, the aroma wafted out from the kitchen, making them salivate, but their stomachs felt empty.

Xiao Hei jumped down from the roof at some point and walked towards the kitchen.

It’s time to eat.

Sure enough, Ji Qinglan shouted, "It's time for breakfast."

In the main room, there is a square table and a family of four.

Xiao Yi and Ji Xincheng were busy eating. What does it mean to be a hard-working person? A hard-working soul.

Xiao Qing chewed slowly, and every bite was a taste enjoyment.

The noodles are chewy and smooth, stewed in the broth with臊子肉, fresh and tasty. It tastes so good!

I didn’t expect Ji Qinglan to have such skills.

Finally, Xiao Qing and Ji Qinglan each ate a large bowl.

Xiao Yi finally agreed to go back. Xiao Qing stood up excitedly, and she, who was always calm, even walked back and forth in the room.

Xiao Qing walked back and forth twice, and finally realized that she was abnormal and too excited. She slowly sat down, took the teacup and drank some water, then said, "It's good that you can figure it out. Our family can finally be reunited. Your wedding date is July 1st, and I will start preparing for you when I go back."

"The old house has not been lived in for a long time, and many places need repairs, but don't worry, I can tidy it up before your wedding. The previous furniture can't be used anymore, so I'll hire someone to make you a new set of furniture."

"It's just that Qinglan, what are your plans? She will go back with you now. I will ask someone to help her with her relationship."

Although Xiao Qing remained calm on the surface, she was still chattering and arranging things.

Xiao Yi said: "Sister, you are so busy with work and you have to take care of your brother-in-law and children. You don't have to worry about my marriage with Qinglan. I will take care of it myself when I go back."

"That's impossible. What do you, a grown man, know?" Xiao Qing disagreed. Is this eldest sister going to just sit by and watch her brother's wedding?

Xiao Yi said, "Qinglan and I have already discussed the wedding banquet. We will keep it simple and hold the wedding here on July 1st. We will host a banquet for friends and relatives in Yanjing when Qinglan returns at the end of the year."

Ji Qinglan's original intention was to return to Yanjing to hold another wedding after the college entrance examination, but Xiao Yi and Ji Qinglan did not know when the college entrance examination would be resumed, so Xiao Yi set the date at the end of the year.

Ji Qinglan hasn't been back to Yanjing for three years. Since she is getting married this year, she must go back to Yanjing to visit Peng Guodong no matter what.

Xiao Qing...

She knew that her brother's ideas were completely different from hers and they were not on the same equator.

Disciplining this younger brother is even more difficult than disciplining the employees under him.

The colorless and tasteless boiled water diluted the depression in her heart. Xiao Qing kindly advised: "Ayi, you are worried that Qinglan will have difficulty returning to the city. You don't have to worry about this. Qinglan is a martyr's relative. She can go back with you as a family member. If that doesn't work, I can even arrange a decent job for her."

In order to prevent Xiao Yi from having any messy ideas, Xiao Qing decided to show favoritism and open a back door for Ji Qinglan.

Xiao Yi knew that his sister meant well, but that was not his original intention. He explained, "Sister, you misunderstood. Qinglan has no other ideas. She has obtained a high school degree through self-study. Now that the news is set in stone, she wants to go back by taking the college entrance examination."

Xiao Qing nodded with satisfaction and looked up to Ji Qinglan. She originally thought that Ji Qinglan was making trouble in the marriage, but it turned out to be for this.

However, the college entrance examination is not easy. There are thousands of people competing for a single spot, especially at Yenching University. Every student admitted to Yenching University is one in a million.

Of course, Ji Qinglan has this lofty ideal, and Xiao Qing does not discriminate or oppose it. This is not her vision.

Xiao Qing said, "Your sister-in-law has a great idea. A meeting is being held to discuss the matter. The specific time is yet to be determined. Alas! Because of this matter, your brother-in-law hasn't been home for three days."

As someone in the situation, Xiao Qing naturally knew more. National construction was urgent and a large number of talents were needed urgently. The resumption of the college entrance examination was just around the corner.

Xiao Yi nodded and changed the subject. The brother and sister were very secretive about this topic.

Xiao Yi: "I plan to leave the old house to Shuyan, and I will buy a new property after I return."

Xiao Qing was only surprised at his decision for a moment before she was relieved. She was very relieved that Xiao Yi had realized this, so she still advised: "The house is a big deal. If you give it up like this, talk to Qinglan and see what she thinks. You should discuss it with her before making a decision!"

Xiao Yi shook his head and said, "The old house is our ancestral property. Shuyan is the eldest son, so he should inherit it. I will discuss this with Qinglan, but she likes old-fashioned furniture. I remember that we once had a set of yellow rosewood furniture at home. How about leaving it to us?"
