The family used to spend more than 100 taels of silver, and then bought land and saw a doctor, which also cost seven to eighty eight.

Now there are more than 50 taels left in total, which is enough to build a house alone.

It happened that space was reserved when the house was built, and it happened to be rebuilt in the place where the three children live now.

"Father, we have money." As soon as Cheng Shao heard about building a house, he dragged Cheng Bao'er to the two of them and looked up eagerly.

Qi Jiu also stood beside her, shaking her little hands. "The rabbit made a lot of money."

Cheng Langyu slapped three brains with his big hand at will. "Your point is not enough, keep it for yourself."

Cheng Shao pursed his lips, there are too many, it must be enough.

He was afraid that adults would not believe it, so he ran into the house by himself, climbed onto the bedside and searched for a green money bag.

"Brother, here." Cheng Shao handed over the money bag. "Enough, repair the house."

"I don't want yours." Cheng Langyu said. "Save more money now, and keep it for yourself in the future."

No matter how you build your own house, you can't use your children's money.

Cheng Shao bit his lip, brother is too fierce.He looked at Ye Liandong who was smiling at him again. "Sister-in-law, here you are." Cheng Shao's little paw grabbed the money bag and stuffed it into Ye Rendong's hand.

Cheng Baoer followed suit, seeing his brother doing this, he ran back to the house excitedly and took out his small treasury.

"Sister-in-law, here it is!" the little girl said crisply.

Ye Liandong sighed lightly and patted the heads of the two of them. "Our family still has money, so we don't need yours."

"But I want to give it." Cheng Shao looked at him eagerly.

Cheng Langyu said slowly: "Take it back, I will ask you for it later."

"Really?" Cheng Shao asked as if confirming.

"Yeah." Cheng Langyu hugged the little doll to himself.

Ye Liandong smiled lightly as he watched the two children run into the house to put money, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Qi Jiu who had been squatting by the side and playing with Cheng Yuanqing's little guy.

Suddenly asked: "Ah Jiu, haven't you been to town for a long time?"

Qi Jiu was shaken by the little guy's clenched hands, and nodded casually: "There is nothing interesting in this town."

Ye Rendong nodded between his eyebrows: "Then you don't go to see Dr. Lu."

Qi Jiu covered her small face with her hands, and raised her eyelids. "Okay, let's go to town with you this time."

After talking about this, Ye Rendong thought about Yan Tong's current situation, and said to Cheng Langyu: "Sir, let's take a few eggs and send them to the ancestral house."

"Our chickens are much more raw, so I just sent some over there."

Cheng Langyu: "Then I'll pick it up."

"Farewell, I'll go." Ye Liandong stood up straight, stretching his hands high.Cat-like showing the narrow waistline under the placket.

"I'll take the basket!" Cheng Shao just heard this sentence when he put his things out, and immediately ran away cheerfully.

"I'll go too!" Cheng Baoer twitched her braids and waved her hands, "Brother, wait for me!"

Ye Liandong walked around the two trees in the courtyard with a smile.The slender fingers took the door rope on the fence and took it off a few times.

Before the others went in, the chickens and ducks inside ran over, creaking and flapping their wings.Doudou looked at Ye Liandong, her eyes were full of anticipation for the food.

Ye Liandong quickly walked in and closed the door.

He waved the chickens and ducks away with both hands, and walked towards the place where the shed was built suspiciously.There were two rotten pots.

"Isn't this still there?" I saw a half-height pile of green grass mixed with rice bran in the wooden basin with a narrow crack in the middle.

"Do you want to eat meat?" Cheng Baoer's voice came from afar.

Ye Liandong bowed and drilled into the low shed.

The shed is made of woven thatch on wooden sticks, and firewood is placed inside.Because it was built against a tree, it was even darker under the shade of the tree.

Ye Rendong blinked to get used to it before continuing to walk inside.

There is a row of chicken coops inside, which are made of bamboo and stuffed with straw.It's soft and soft, and it looks very comfortable.

Ye Liandong glanced at the old hen that was still squatting in the nest, and was very relieved.Taking a rough look at the other places, there are no less than ten eggs in the other three nests.

Eggs and duck eggs are available.The duck egg is white, and one hand can barely wrap it. The egg is a little orange, and there is still a lot of room to wrap it with the hand.

"Sister-in-law, we're coming in!" Cheng Shao said as he opened the door and walked in.

At this moment, the old hen beside Ye Liandong began to cluck and croak loudly.

Ye Rendong stood still, waiting for it to go out.Only continue to act.

Taking two in one hand, Ye Liandong stretched out his hands out of the shed and handed them to the children outside. "Slow down, don't break it."

"I know, sister-in-law." Cheng Baoer said.

Ye Liandong likes to pick up eggs, and has a sense of satisfaction from harvesting.Going back and forth five times in a row, the basket is covered with a layer.

"Okay, leave one in there."

"Get out of the way, I'm coming out."

Ye Liandong lowered her body, bent over and muttered. "The shed is indeed shorter."

After coming out, he looked at the eggs and duck eggs in the basket with satisfaction.It was neatly divided into two halves.Generally white, half yellow.One round each other.

"Let's go, let's go." Ye Rendong carried the basket.

The fence is full of trees, including pears, peaches, apricots, and rhododendrons transplanted from the mountain.

Now in May, the flowering period has passed, and the nail-sized fruits hang high on the branches.Some are next to each other in twos, and some occupy a branch alone.The growth is good, there are no less than twenty or thirty.

thriving.

"Let's thin the fruit later, so they can grow bigger."

Cheng Baoer looked at the chickens and ducks following behind, and she ran to the front: "I'm going to dig the earth dragon, they are hungry."

Ye Liandong closed the fence with a basket on her shoulders. "Go."

He asked Qi Jiu again: "Would you like to take a carriage or walk to the town?"

The carriage was handed over to Cheng Langyu because of Qi Jiu, and because Qi Jiu had him before, he could come back soon after sending it back.So now others are here, and the carriage is tied to the ancestral house.

"Carriage." Qi Jiu said decisively.I must take Cheng Yuanqing Zaizai with me, walking is not as fast as taking a car.

"That's fine, just send the eggs along."

Two days later, it was Daji.

The couple drove to the town, while Cheng Shao and Cheng Baoer stayed in the ancestral house to play with Yuanxiao.

At the door of Dr. Lu's shop, Cheng Langyu stopped the carriage and pulled it aside.

Ye Rendong brought Qi Jiu in.

In the shop, the tables by the door were crookedly arranged, and there were especially many people inside, crowded together.Ye Liandong stood by the door, suspecting that it would be difficult for him to step down.

Qi Jiula pulled Ye Liandong's clothes: "Why don't we come back later."

Ye Liandong pulled him to the side.

"Sir, there are a lot of people today."

There was a lot of noise in the shop, the cubs in Ye Liandong's arms pursed their mouths. "Be good, cub, be good."

Ye Rendong comforted him, and carried him away from the door.

Sweeping his gaze inadvertently, he suddenly saw a slightly familiar figure.His face was pale, his cheeks sunken, and his body was so thin that his bones could be seen.

"This is it, Auntie?"

"Sanggong, take a quick look, right?" Ye Rendong patted Cheng Langyu, pointed inside and said.

My aunt's name is Cheng Anmei, and she is the second child.In her early years, she married and moved to the town next door.This year's Chinese New Year, my aunt also went home for a trip.

Ye Rendong has seen her twice since he got married.But the aunt in his impression was the same as the Cheng family, with a pale and kind face. Although she looked thin, she didn't look like she is now.

So suddenly seeing such a similar facial features, I'm not sure.

Cheng Langyu was taller than Ye Rendong, and he could see the crumbling women in the crowd when he raised his eyes.

"Yes, Fulang, just sit by the door and don't wander around." Cheng Langyu pressed him on the stool by the door, pushed him away from the crowd with a worried face, and helped the people inside.

"Aunt?"

Cheng Anmei's body was in severe pain, her consciousness was blurred, and she didn't hear these words clearly for a while.

Cheng Anmei didn't raise her head to look at the person until a hand was supported on her arm.

His pupils are dark yellow and his eyes are cloudy.It took a few times to recognize the person. "Boy Yu."

"Well, aunt, what's wrong with you?" Cheng Langyu asked her.While helping people to the door.

Seeing someone approaching, Ye Rendong straightened up and stepped aside: "Gu, sit here."

"Brother Dong. And your little doll." Cheng Anmei smiled while holding the corner of her mouth. "Come here to see a doctor, I didn't expect to meet your husband and wife."

As she said this, bitterness flashed in her eyes.

"Isn't it okay to come here a while ago? What's wrong?" Ye Liandong looked worried.

Qi Jiuli stood aside obediently. "Do you want to see Grandpa Lu first?"

"I'm holding a stick." Cheng Anmei shook the wooden stick in her hand and smiled. "It's nothing serious, it's just that my stomach hurts and I can't eat, so it's like this."

"Then you came here alone?" Cheng Langyu suddenly said.

Although the tone was light, Ye Liandong could hear a burst of anger.

Cheng Anmei was taken aback for a moment, then smiled wryly: "Yes, alone. Isn't it impossible to cure it over there?"

"What about uncle?" Cheng Langyu's face was dark.

Ye Liandong tugged on his sleeve, signaling him not to be too aggressive.

Cheng Anmei shook her head. "What are you talking about him for. I'm just a little sick. Don't tell your grandpa when you go home, you know?"

Cheng Langyu's tone slowed down a bit and said, "What about my cousin and the others?"

Cheng Anmei wiped the sweat from her forehead. "They are busy, how can they have any time."

Cheng Langyu lowered the air pressure instantly.

"36 lots." Someone called over there.

When Cheng Anmei heard herself, she propped herself up on the table and stood up, with sweat gushing out of her forehead again. "It's my turn. You are busy with your work. Auntie, I will do it myself."

Cheng Langyu supported her hand into the small door, silently, but insisted on action.

Ye Liandong hugged the baby, holding the baby on the hem of the clothes and followed.

His eyes fell on his aunt's legs.

The trousers are empty and look fat.

Cheng Anmei insisted on walking a few steps at first, but she still put her weight on Cheng Langyu as she walked.

Ye Liandong looked at his brows and eyes with some worry.My aunt's legs were shaking, and she couldn't even walk steadily.Then how did she come from the next town, and she didn't have any family to accompany her.

The older generation likes to save money, if it is said to take a carriage, it is not specified.I'm afraid it's not necessarily a bullock cart.

Ye Liandong looked up and noticed that his callused hands were rougher than Dr. Tu's old bark hands.The openings on the top are large and small all over each fingertip.

She was still energetic before, and she didn't pay attention to what happened to her hands.But now that Gu is like this, Ye Rendong has to think more.

After entering the room, Dr. Lu leaned back on the chair with a fairy-like appearance, waiting for the next patient.

Seeing Cheng Langyu suddenly, I thought there was something wrong with him.

When he saw the person he was supporting, he paused the hand touching his beard. "This is?"

Cheng Anmei sat down, and Doctor Lu came to see her.Qi Jiu watched the old doctor's eyes.

It's okay, some help.

"How long have you been sick?" Dr. Lu asked.

Cheng Anmei paused, looked at the couple, and said, "It's been half a year."

"Half a year? It took so long." Doctor Lu frowned, and the white eyebrows on both sides were connected into a line.

Cheng Anmei smiled weakly. "Live as long as you can, who wants to die early."

Dr. Lu shook his head: "In order to save that little money, minor illnesses have turned into serious illnesses."

Cheng Langyu clasped his fingertips.The eldest aunt's family is the most outstanding among the brothers. When I come here during the New Year's Eve, I don't know how to dress and wear well.

He looked at his aunt's patched clothes and knew it in his heart.

I'm afraid that in the past those were only superficial.It should be to stabilize grandma's heart.After all, my aunt was married far away, and it was rare for her to come back once, so the children would not want to worry the family.

Cheng Langyu: "Is this disease curable?"

Dr. Lu said mysteriously: "It's okay to agree, it's a matter of taking a few more medicines. It's just that it took a long time and I suffered a lot."

Cheng Langyu calmed down, and said to Cheng Anmei: "Auntie, why don't you go to the ancestral house and play for a few days before going back."

Ye Liandong also thought so, and persuaded her. "It will take time to come over there, so you can go there just by taking advantage of the opportunity."

"I'll go when I feel better. I don't want it now." Cheng Anmei was in pain, but she still insisted on not going.

The second elder in the family is getting old and can't stand any stimulation.
