butcher's little man

Dressed up like a red envelope, the little dumpling successfully received countless loving kisses, hugs and the like at the grandma's house, and her little face was flushed by everyone's kisses.

It was still cold outside, but fortunately after Li Wenxuan said that day, the three Tian family father and son went to the mountain to cut some trees and burn a lot of charcoal.

Everyone sat around in front of the big brazier, teasing Xiaotuanzi.Brother Le leaned obediently beside Father Tian, ​​eating the candy given by everyone.

Brother Le finally got his wish this year and was able to come with his uncle and Momo.He was very impressed with this grandpa, and Father Tian also liked the soft and sticky little brother very much, so the old and the young got together very quickly.

Xiaotuanzi was already a little unhappy when everyone picked him up and hugged him. He stretched out his stubby arms and opened them to Tian Xiaoman, hoping that his mother could take him back.

But his second uncle wanted to tease him, and after taking Xiaotuanzi over, he rubbed his face against him, Xiaotuanzi got angry and yelled angrily, "Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"

Everyone, "..."

Seeing that he still didn't let go, Xiaotuanzi closed his eyes forcefully, choked his mouth, and raised his calf, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..."

Tian Shou immediately threw Xiaotuanzi back into Tian Xiaoman's arms as if he had been scalded, "Little brother, why is your son so fierce?"

Tian Xiaoman gave him a blank look, "Who told you to stab him with your beard on purpose." His family's Xiaotuanzi is not fierce, look at this little face is clean, there is no trace of tears.I don't know when, Xiaotuanzi learned to pretend to cry.Once something goes wrong, immediately howl.Of course, he didn't dare to do it on his mother's head, because if he pretended again, he would become a real cry.

At noon, Tian Amu prepared a table of sumptuous meals for them. Of course, the egg custard of Xiaotuanzi was indispensable.He still can't sit by himself, being hugged by Tian Xiaoman, eating bite by bite.

He is an impatient baby. He puts a spoonful of custard into his mouth and swallows it with a few casual moves. Gouda Xiaoman.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, the Li family came to Tian's house together, because Tian Fu Tianshou was going to marry his husband today.Xiao Tuanzi and Le Geer were placed on two marriage beds, and they were allowed to keep rolling around.

Li Wenxuan was responsible for looking after the two children, because Tian Xiaoman was going to send them off for marriage.Both Yang Xiaoguo and Jing Jing are his good friends, but Yang Xiaoguo's family is in the village, and Jing Jing and the others temporarily rented a house in the county to get married, so Tian Xiaoman came to Yang Xiaoguo's place.

"Xiaoguo, do you still remember this?" Tian Xiaoman took out the book hidden in his arms with a smirk. It was the book Liu Sheng gave him when he got married.He watched it with Li Wenxuan, and even tried the movements drawn in it.He thought it was pretty good, so he brought the book and gave it to Yang Xiaoguo, so that he and his brother could have a nice wedding night in the bridal chamber.

Tian Xiaoman originally thought that Yang Xiaoguo would be as confused as before, but who knew that his face would turn red when he saw it. "You...are you with my elder brother...huh?" Tian Xiaoman asked suspiciously, his eyebrows were raised, and he stared at Yang Xiaoguo maliciously.

"Xiaoman, stop talking, you're so ashamed..." Yang Xiaoguo covered her blushing cheeks, embarrassed to look at Tian Xiaoman.Looking at his actions, there is something Tian Xiaoman doesn't know. He never expected that the purest and ignorant Yang Xiaoguo would be so bold.

However, Tian Xiaoman also knew that his brother must be to blame for this matter. The lonely man and widow were living in the same room, and they were married long ago, so his brother must not be able to resist.Fortunately, he didn't get along with Li Wenxuan at that time, otherwise he must have been deceived by him.

Tian Xiaoman reached out to Yang Xiaoguo's belly, and said solemnly, "Let me see if there is my little nephew in here." Yang Xiaoguo was startled by his action, and then reacted to scratch Tian Xiaoman, "Xiaoman, You are necrotic!"

The two brothers were fighting, when they suddenly heard the sound of firecrackers outside, and his eldest brother came to pick them up.

Tian Fu was actually very happy in his heart. He and his second brother chose to get married on the same day, so he separated Xiao Man and Liu Sheng, the two troublemakers. Otherwise, they would definitely come up with many bad ideas when they get together.Compared with the second brother, he is happier, because Xiaoman belongs to his own family anyway, and Liu Sheng is not recognized by his relatives.

Tian Fu thought beautifully, but he didn't know that Tian Xiaoman and Liu Sheng had met before, and they had already thought about how to make trouble.

The two brothers Tian Fu and Tian Shou finally took the new husband into the carriage after a lot of hardships. They both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and finally passed the test.

Because the county town is far away, after Tian Fu received Yang Xiaoguo, he had to walk around the village a few times, and then went in together when they arrived.

If Tian Xiaoman doesn't go around with them, and if he doesn't go home, the little devil will have a big fight.Sure enough, when he got home, Xiaotuanzi had already been crying for a while, and when he saw Tian Xiaoman, he immediately opened his hands to hug him, and pressed the chubby head tightly to Tian Xiaoman's neck, letting him take him for so long Li Wenxuan was a bit apprehensive, and scolded the little sycophant.

Tian Xiaoman smiled smugly, is he not allowed to kiss me if he is only allowed to kiss you?

After a while, firecrackers sounded at the door, and the two couples got off the carriage at the same time, stepped over the brazier together, and worshiped heaven and earth with the support of the matchmaker.Tian's father and Tian's mother have always been cheerful, no one has enjoyed this kind of blessing, what a double happiness.

In fact, Tian Xiaoman really wanted to participate in the bridal chamber, but Li Wenxuan had been repeatedly asked by his two brothers-in-law not to let Xiaoman follow along, so Tian Xiaoman was stumbled by Xiaotuanzi.

Li's father, Li Amu, took Brother Le back home after having a drink yesterday. Tian Xiaoman was born as the brother of Tian's family, so of course the important matter of importing children had to be left behind.

When serving tea the next day, Xiaotuanzi became the biggest winner, and he earned as much as his mother gave as gift money, or even more.

Tian Xiaoman smiled from ear to ear, and proudly showed off to Yang Xiaoguo and An Jing, "You two are good sisters-in-law, hurry up and add to my family, when the time comes, my aunt's gift will definitely be indispensable."

As soon as the words fell, he was attacked by Yang Xiaoguo and An Jing, and he couldn't get up because he was pressed on the couch. The feeling of being tickled all over made Tian Xiaoman call out repeatedly, "Come on, Mu, your brother wants to give you a piece of cake." Erfulang bullied him to death!"

Tian Amu passed by and said yes!Even Xiaotuanzi was giggling beside him, not saving face for his mother at all.

Tian Xiaoman burst into tears, what is this feeling of falling out of favor?

This year's winter is extremely cold, so when spring comes, everyone is very happy.But the good times don't last long. As February is almost over and there has not been a drop of rain in the sky, people's hearts have become heavy.

Soon the seedlings will be planted, but the field is so dry that mud can be squeezed out, which is not at all like the spring plowing in previous years.

The water level in the river has dropped again. In the past, we had to worry about the water flooding up in the spring, but now we don't have to worry about it at all.

For this reason, the village chief called all the big guys together to discuss what to do.Shall we dig the river deeper, or dig two wells beside the fields?

Both of these methods were rejected, one because the water level dropped not because the river was too shallow, but because the water level in the upstream lake also dropped.

Second, digging a well is not a trivial matter. To dig a better well, you need to invite a master to come and see the land. Afterwards, they can't help you with digging, and the cost is about two or three taels of silver.The most important thing is, whose field is the well being drilled on?

Everyone was arguing about this issue, and there was no conclusion for a long time. The village head could only ask everyone to go back and discuss it with their families.

Li's father and son don't rely on the land for food, and this matter doesn't have a great impact on them, but judging from Li's father's visit to the mountain these days, there are indeed fewer animals on the mountain. migrated.

After thinking about it, Li Wenxuan decided not to buy piglets this year. At the same time, he also told a few acquaintances who often sell pigs to him to let them keep less piglets this year.

He often went to the county seat in the past few days, and once went to the provincial capital. He came back two days later and told everyone a bad news. This is the case in every county.

After the village head heard Li Wenxuan's news, he gathered all the old and young men in the village together and asked everyone to grow something drought-tolerant this year. Rice, which requires a lot of water, should be planted carefully.

For a while, the room was quiet, and everyone frowned. It has only been a few years, why is it suddenly dry again?In fact, there have been signs of this for a long time. It snows here every year, but last year and before it suddenly stopped, and last year's rain was much less than in previous years.

Seeing that everyone was silent, the village head cheered up and said, "It's okay, maybe it will rain soon? It's not that bad. Anyway, we should make the preparations first. Even if there is a drought, the court will not ignore us. "

After hearing what the village chief said, everyone felt a little better and dispersed.

The situation did not go as everyone expected, until the beginning of April, the rain did not fall.There are those who don't give up on rice planting, and every day they have to fetch a few loads of water from the river to water it. If they don't water it for a day, it will turn yellow.

The water in the river became shallower and shallower, and a child could not even reach his knees when he stood down.Fortunately, there are quite a lot of wells in the village, and no one will worry about drinking water for a while.

The local officials have long reported the matter. Not long ago, they were notified that the taxes of the dozen or so nearby counties could be reduced by half this year compared to previous years. People felt much more relieved, which meant that the imperial court did not ignore them.

The Li family didn't grow vegetables in that valley this year, but opened a few vegetable fields in the backyard, and drew water from the well every day to irrigate.The well in their house is considered an old well. It was drilled very deep back then, and the water has always been relatively sufficient.

Xiaotuanzi has grown from a soft little fat man to a slightly more flexible little fat man.He is more than seven months old now, and he has been able to sit steadily for a long time. His second uncle asked someone to bring him a chair from the provincial capital. It was made tall, and Xiaotuanzi used it when eating.

He can eat a lot of things now, except for some that are too heavy to eat.But Tian Xiaoman also found out that this guy is a carnivore, he spits out some vegetables when he puts them in his mouth, eating meat floss is amazing.The meat floss was brought back from the west by a friend of Li Wenxuan, it is just right for a toothless child.In fact, Xiaotuanzi has already grown four teeth, and no matter what comes to his mouth, it can be slowly worn away.
