Portable Space: Dressing Up as a Little Brother

When it was almost time for dinner, Father and the others came back from the field and found out what had happened during the day.But they think it's normal for children to play and fight, and they say that they don't need to worry about the children at home.Father and the others think about it too, at most, they should mention it when they see the old village head.

However, what they didn't expect was that not long after dinner, the old village chief and his son Shen Miao, who married into the town, brought the fat little Wei Bao to their home.As soon as the old village head came in and sat down, he said, "Da Niu, this little grandson in the family has been spoiled by his father. He is very naughty now. I heard that I had a fight with your twins by the river today. That’s right, the kid is fine, except that he is greedy. I can’t get rid of it. In order to order some food, I fought with the younger one in peace. I scolded him at home, and now Brother Miao and I He slipped over and asked him to apologize to the two little brothers."

After speaking, the old village chief pulled Wei Bao over and said to him, "Apologize to my brother, and we will get along well together in the future."

Wei Bao's eyes were red, and he bowed to Ping An'an under his grandfather's pressure, and said, "Ping An'an, I'm not good today. I shouldn't grab your food, and I can share it with you when you have extra food in the future." I'll just order it. I want to hang out with you when I come to Grandpa's house in the future." Everyone was laughed at by him.His father, Shen Miao, also knocked his head dumbfounded, and said, "You are really shameless. Remember, play well with your younger brothers in the future, and don't fight anymore."

After talking about my silly boy, I embarrassedly said to Xiao Yu'er's family: "Brother Big Niu, brother-in-law, I'm really sorry, and I also apologize. This child is spoiled so much that he doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth. Here's to you guys." Sorry for the trouble. I will educate him well in the future, how about being safe this time? There is nothing wrong, right? If there is any injury, we will pay for the doctor."

Father and Father quickly said: "It's not a big deal, it's normal for children to fight and fight. It's safe and sound, but the red marks on the face are more obvious, and it's far from time to call a doctor. Don't worry!"

At this time, Ah Ma took a small basket from the house, put some preserved fruit out, and handed it directly to Wei Bao. "Here, take it. You can come home if you like to eat. You can play and eat together in peace and safety. You can eat as much as you want, so there is no need to fight." Wei Bao saw his father nodded before taking it. I ate it right away.

Seeing that, Dad quickly said: "The ones in this basket are for you to take home to eat. If you want to eat now, go directly to the table to get it. There are still some on the plate over there."

Ah, they also greeted the old village head and Shen Miao to taste the preserved fruit.The old village head ate a few and said: "If you can't stand it, the children will like it. It really tastes good. I don't eat sweets very much, and I think it's good when I eat it. The few times you sent it to your family, it was eaten up by the family. Brother Miao and the others didn’t eat it this time when they came back.”

Shen Miao also said: "I heard that the preserved fruit sold in the Jingrong Restaurant in the town is made by your family? I bought it for Xiaobao when I was at home, but I always feel that it tastes better at your house now. My Xiaobao I just know how to eat, and I won’t let go of the delicious ones.”

Father said: "This is for the family to eat. It has not been sold to restaurants. It tastes much better. The children in our family like it very much. Children love sweets. It is a blessing for children to eat." .”

The adults quickly changed the topic to what happened to the crops in the field.But Wei Bao was peaceful and safe after a while, and they started talking while eating preserved fruit, and now it was not obvious that they had fought during the day.Adults will never understand the world of bear children!

After this fight, little fat Wei Bao became a frequent visitor at home.He also often brings snacks made by his grandma to Ping An An and they eat them, and they are very excited every time they come to Ping An An.By the time Wei Bao had to go back to town with Father and the others, they had already become very good friends.When the little fat man left, he couldn't bear to let them go safely, and only when the twins promised that they would go to the town to play with him in the future did they turn around and leave.

After the noisy brat Wei Bao returned to his home, Xiao Yu'er's house became much cleaner.

Xiao Yuer is busy feeding chickens and growing vegetables every day.After selling the dried fruit at home, it is time to consider buying fruit from neighbors in the village.I plan to do this first this year, and when I have saved enough money in the early spring of next year, I plan to buy a small hill to grow fruits.

In order to collect fruits, my father brought preserved fruits and vegetables, plus a chicken from the yard of the house, to the old village head.The old village head was very happy after hearing his explanation of his visit, and said: "This is a good thing! In addition to the harvest in the field and looking for work in the town, the village has no place to get money. Now which yard There will always be a few fruit trees, but there are not many, even if the whole village collects them, there may not be many. And how is the price calculated?"

My father said: "Take as much as you can, as much as there are in the village, but the best ones, those that have been eaten by insects can't be harvested, you must pick good ones. Mainly peaches, I look at the people who grow peaches in the village At most, if there are other fruits, they can be picked and sent to my home at that time. Now collect them in the village to see how much there is, and if there are not enough, I will find them from other villages. If there are relatives in other villages Those who grow fruit at home can also say that they can sell it if they want. As for the price, it is cheaper than selling them in the town. Just like peaches, now the town sells them for 6 yuan a catty. Yes, our family can give 5 cents a catty. Just send it directly to our house, so that everyone will not have to carry it to the town, keep it for sale, and sometimes have to carry it back if it can’t be sold. So the price is about the same Yes. Please tell the village chief to talk to them."

After hearing this, the old village chief thought it was good, so he planned to call everyone together after dinner the next day and talk about it.Be in a hurry, it's almost out of season.

After the old village chief told the story, the villagers began to carry fruit to Xiao Yu'er's house one after another.In order to have a place to temporarily store these fruits, father and the others deliberately vacated the utility room.Grandpa also purposely made several large baskets out of bamboo to hold the fruits.

My father and uncle took my brother to inspect the fruit, weighed it, and settled the money.Father and the others boiled the pot together with Xiao Yuer.Because there were too many fruits, it was inconvenient to cook in the kitchen, so my father built a shed by the courtyard dam with wood and bamboo, built two temporary stoves with stones, put two big pots on them, and let Xiao Yuer and the others take turns Keep boiling.When it is boiled, it is directly filled up and spread out with a big dustpan in the courtyard dam to dry.It caused a sweet smell in the yard of their house recently, and the neighbors who passed by the door could smell the smell from a long distance.

This batch of fruit made almost 300 catties of preserved fruit.The variety is also a little more, in addition to the most peaches, there are also some plums, apricots and bayberries.It's already early autumn, and these fruits can only be harvested this time this year.Hawthorns, apricots and other autumn harvest fruits are not very ripe yet, so we have to wait.Now that this batch of preserved fruits is sold, it will take almost half a month to make preserved fruits.

After finishing the last batch of preserved peaches, Xiaoyuer turned his attention to the rear mountain chickens and the vegetable garden while they were drying.I've been busy making preserved fruits recently, so I seldom take care of them.

Xiao Yuer took his elder brother and cousin Xu Bai to clean up the excrement of the chickens in the back mountain, and piled it up together, waiting for Father and the others to compost it with other excrement.After finishing these, Xiaoyuer added space spring water for the chicks to drink, and also watered the vegetable leaves by the way.

After a period of time like this, the preserved fruits are ready to dry, and the vegetables are quite ripe.At the end of the day, Xiaoyuer's family started to pick vegetables in the vegetable garden again.Today the restaurant will come to pull preserved fruits and vegetables.Xiao Yu'er, Father and the others are also planning to go to the town. This time, most of the family will go, mainly because they are too busy during this time.It will be busy harvesting crops in autumn soon.So I plan to take the children to the town for a stroll, they haven't been to the town since they were born.

When the guys from the restaurant drove the car, they had already packed the vegetables and preserved fruits.After Father and the others helped the guys carry the car, they left Grandpa and Ah Mo at home to look after the house, while the others were preparing to enter the town.Because the restaurant's car is full of things, it can't seat so many people.In the end, my father took Xiao Yu'er away in the carriage of the restaurant, and the little uncle took the others to do the ox cart of Uncle Aning's house and left later.

Father took Xiao Yu'er this time to go to the restaurant to settle the money first. After a while, the family will be busy collecting yellow grains, so they don't have time to come to town.

The carriage ran faster than the ox cart, Xiao Yuer and the others left the ox cart behind and quickly entered the town.The carriage drove directly from the back door of the restaurant into the backyard, and the shopkeeper was already waiting there.After counting things together and paying the money, Xiao Yuer and the others were about to leave, the shopkeeper hurriedly stopped them and said: "The young owner of our restaurant happened to come to check the accounts today, and I heard that the vegetables and preserved fruits in the restaurant were sold out recently. It's very good, so I tasted it. I think it's very good, and I want to see you. Please come with me, and come upstairs to the box. I know you will come today, and I have already told the young boss in advance. It's just that he is now There are guests, I may ask you to sit down first and wait for a while."

After talking, he took them upstairs and entered a box. After the shopkeeper asked them to sit down, he asked the waiter to serve some dishes of snacks and tea, and first talked with them.Afuye took this opportunity to say that this year is the last batch of candied peaches, and it is already out of season. Although there are some candied fruits that can be made into candied fruit in autumn, but when the family is busy, there may not be a lot of them. .Of course, vegetables will also be provided.

The shopkeeper agreed after hearing this, and said: "It doesn't matter, I will talk to our young master later. Maybe some specific young masters will talk to you."
