The Road to the Imperial Examinations of Farmers in Ancient Times

"Okay, take out the dishes and everyone can eat."

After the vegetables in the pot were cooked, a little salt was added. Mother Li scooped up the cooked vegetables with a large spoon and served them on a ceramic plate.The thick noodle steamed buns in the steamer were also steamed. Mother Li found a plate and picked up the steamed buns. The eldest girl took them outside, and the second girl took the bowls and chopsticks and placed them outside.

The firewood was burning in the kitchen and it was stuffy and hot. She was sweating a lot. Mother Li just wanted to raise her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve. A small cloth towel was passed over in due course. The little child's voice was soft. She said softly, "Mom, wipe off your sweat."

"Hey, Sambo is so good." She almost forgot that there was a small one at her feet. Mother Li looked at the baby who was not even around her waist, took the cloth towel handed by the child, and smiled with her eyes bent.

Li Wen showed his reserved eight small white teeth, staring at his aunt, "Aniang, you are so pretty."

"It's just your sweet mouth." As a mother, she has never taught her children these words, and she doesn't know where her children learned to be gentle and considerate. Even her father is not half as sweet as the child's mouth. , Thinking of her father who is dull and quiet, the smile in the woman's eyes is even more gentle.

"Big Tits, Uncle, Dad, dinner is ready." Erya shouted outside, with joy that could be heard in her voice.

The dishes on the table, the thick noodles and steamed buns, and a large pot of rice paste, these are the dinners of the whole family for a day.

The grain in the early spring of this year has just been planted, and all they eat is the grain saved from last year. After the family has passed the winter, there is not much grain left in the granary.They will not have new food until the grain in the autumn field is mature and the grain is put away, so their family has to eat the little grain that is left now, otherwise their family will really want to eat it. Hungry.

Fortunately, it's spring now, and wild vegetables are growing in the field. They can cut a handful of wild vegetables and cook a meal for the whole family. Although they are not full, they will never die of hunger.

Now the world is peaceful, no matter how sad life is, it is better than before. A few acres of land has been planted with food, and the whole family will not starve to death.In the past when the world was in chaos, the people were in dire straits, and people starved to death everywhere on the road.

"Grandma, daddy, uncle, it's time to eat." Li Wen went to help his grandma, helped the old lady up to sit at the table.The old lady held the good grandson's hand, showing the first smile of the day on her face, and said with a smile, "Okay, good grandson. My good grandson is also coming to have dinner with grandma."

"Aniang, let's eat." Li Shanshan called out to his aunt.

"En." Li Wang replied.

The man raised his eyes and glanced at his wife, just as the woman raised her head and met her husband's eyes, there was a gentle smile in the woman's eyes.

Mother Li saw that her aunt did not come out, and she is also a woman. She naturally knew that a woman who had just given birth could not get out of bed so quickly, so she asked her mother in a low voice, "Auntie, second aunt is inconvenient. Go in and give some food to Second Aunt."

Seeing that her grandson was also here, Li Wang's mouth was so mean that she stopped it. The woman couldn't even give birth to a son, so she didn't have anything to eat!The old lady waved her hand impatiently. After all, she lost her temper when the family was preparing for dinner, but she said with a bad face, "Go."

Seeing that Aunt nodded, Li's mother dared to pick up a bowl and put some food, and asked the eldest girl to send it to the house for her Aniang to eat.

The eldest girl took the bowl, whispered "Thank you, aunt" to her aunt, and went into the house with it.

Mother Li smiled and shook her head, telling the child to bring it in and eat quickly.

The setting sun was hanging on the hill in the west, and they also sat down on the stone bench outside to have dinner.

Isn't this the busy farming season? They only eat two meals a day, morning and evening, and there is no food at noon. If they miss the meal time, they will have no food.They eat three meals a day only when planting seeds and harvesting grain in a year. Everyone eats this way, and no one thinks there is anything wrong with it.

Da Ya brought food to her aunt, came out and sat next to her second sister, next to their father, the two sisters hunched their shoulders and bowed their heads to eat, not daring to make a sound, for fear of offending their grandmother not happy.

Second Uncle Li ate his bowl in silence, and didn't even say a word at the dinner table.

"Eat, dear grandson, don't starve." Li Wangshi took care of her dear grandson, broke her cornbread in half, and wanted to give half to her dear grandson.

Li Wen didn't want it, let his grandmother eat it, he was not willing to eat the rations that the old lady saved for him, he opened a pair of beautiful double eyelids and big eyes like his grandmother and said to the old lady, "Ah Milk, I have enough here for myself, really."

Those big eyes are full of sincerity.

The food at home is all coarse grains, and the taste is actually not very good. As a person who was used to fine grains in his previous life, he is not used to eating coarse grains until now.They used to eat coarse grains occasionally for breakfast, not like eating coarse grains for meals now, but Li Wen also knew that the price of fine grains here is very expensive, and they really can't afford fine grains now.

Although the taste is not very good, eating whole grains is also good for the body, Li Wen forced himself to eat it.

"Madam eat you, don't worry about the three treasures all day long, there is enough in his bowl." Li Shanshan couldn't get used to seeing his family doting on his boy, and it wasn't just a girl who was so spoiled.The two girls in my uncle's house are so well-behaved, they eat their own food, so there are so many things.

"It's just you who talk too much, eat yours." Li Wangshi glanced at her son, why is she hurting her grandson, if you have the ability to give her a few more grandchildren, why don't she hurt her with just such a precious grandson?

The woman in the room wept sadly over the food brought in, and there was a sleeping baby on the bed, ignorant of worldly affairs.

Originally, I thought that the baby in my stomach would be a son, but I didn't think that the one who was born would be a little girl. No matter who told Li Ahua that she couldn't give birth to a son, she deserved the disappointment of her mother-in-law and husband. When she thought of this, the woman's tears came flowed out.

A family of ten people eats, that is, ten mouths, a plate of wild vegetables with two chopsticks per person will be gone, and the cooked food is only enough for one person, and there will be no more, so the family sits down, and the plates on the table are gone after a while. Each one is empty.

After everyone finished eating, Da Ya and Er Ya helped Da Niang clean up the table and wash the dishes in the basin.
