Chapter 85: Su
"Brother-in-law, dragon and phoenix soup." Shitou filled a bowl of soup and placed it in front of Lu Chengjing. There were three pieces of chicken in it. "My sister specially caught snakes and pheasants to replenish your health."
Lu Chengjing didn't have much appetite. After hearing what Shi Shi said, he still picked up the spoon and drank the soup without touching a piece of the chicken.
Xiaohuan said: "After the rain stopped, I went to Li's house to return the bamboo baskets. I heard from Xiaoshan that the Lin family went to pick vegetables and got into a quarrel with some aunts, and almost got into trouble."
"Why are you noisy?" Shang Wan took a bite of the steamed bun.
Xiaohuan said: "It was said that it was about the relief food, but I don't know exactly what caused the quarrel."
She took a sip of the soup and added, "When it started to rain, Xiao Shan ran home and saw the two brothers from the Lin family driving a donkey cart to the entrance of the village. The donkey cart was still loaded with a lot of things."
Shang Wan chewed the steamed buns thoughtfully.
It's raining heavily today. We have to go out despite the rain. Where are we going?
The stone spit out chicken bones, and he was a bit gloating, "With such heavy rain, even if there is a donkey cart, they will definitely be soaked in the rain."
In fact, not only were the Lin brothers soaked in the water, but Lin Jianshui almost lost his life.
The news was sent by people from Xiaohe Village. The two brothers were at the Barefoot Doctor in Xiaohe Village, asking the Lin family to hurry over.
Shitou went around the village and inquired about everything.
Several nearby villages are close to the mountains. The earthquake in the past few days caused the rocks to loosen. Today's heavy rain has made it even worse.
Everyone in Xiaohe Village was walking around, but the two Lin brothers didn't know it. They happened to be passing by the mountain. There was a loud noise, and several large rocks mixed with soil fell down, almost burying the two of them.
Lin Jianshui pushed Lin Jianshan out in desperation. Lin Jianshui only suffered minor injuries, but Lin Jianshui was covered in injuries, with a big hole in his head and was unconscious.
When Chen Guifang heard that her man was almost dead, she fainted immediately. It was Mrs. Liu who pinched her to wake her up, leaving Lin and others to take care of their two children at home. Village Chief Lin and the other three followed the people from Xiaohe Village to see the brothers. .
There were people in the village who had a good relationship with the Lin family in the past. Three of them came out and followed them, so that they could help out if something happened.
Shitou sighed, "Our village still has good feng shui. It is backed by a mountain, but there are no mudslides or rock collapses like other villages. It seems like we are protected by the mountain god."
Shang Shan Shen Wan glanced at him and thought that it was better to rely on God than to rely on oneself.
If she hadn't gone into the mountain and dealt with the hidden dangers in advance, the mountain god would definitely bury a few unlucky people in there.
The days passed smoothly, and then the day agreed with the brick kiln to haul bricks came.
"Sister, I know the way." Shitou sat on the bullock cart and tightened the reins. "You rest at home, I will go."
"No, I'll go." Shang Wan drove the young man out of the driving seat.
Shitou grabbed the bullock cart and was unwilling to let go, "Sister, please take me with you."
Shang Wan was very clear about his little calculation and ruthlessly opened his hand, "Who was rushing to farm the past few days? Don't think that if you go to pull bricks, I can help you open up wasteland."
Shitou grimaced. How could he know that clearing land was so tiring?
Yesterday, I was digging into the soil. I was so tired that I couldn’t straighten my waist, and there were blood blisters on my hands. My waist is still sore after sleeping all night, and I don’t want to touch the hoe at all.
"How can you give up halfway when doing something?" Shang Wan waved his hand to the stone, "Go ahead, young man, as long as you are willing to fight, the wasteland at the foot of the mountain will be yours."
Shitou cried, "Sister, my biological sister!"
Shang Wan ignored the young man's plea to stay and drove away in a bullock cart coldly.
Stone:"……"
Hey, hey, he doesn’t want to open up wasteland!
"Su!" Yuanyuan rode over to Xiao Hui and patted him with her little fleshy hand, "Su!"
Shi Shi sniffed and looked down at her, "What's wrong?"
"Wo!" Yuanyuan patted herself with her little hands, her big eyes shining brightly, "Hang Su!"
Stone:? ? ? what does it mean?
The two stared at each other for a moment, then Yuanyuan decisively directed Xiao Hui to find his father. Lu Chengjing put down the book and became a bridge between the two.
Yuanyuan waved her short arms excitedly, and from time to time a few words popped out of her mouth, trying to express what she meant.
Lu Chengjing also looked at it for a long time, and it took him a while to figure out what Yuanyuan wanted to say.
He said to Shitou: "Yuanyuan probably wants to say that she can help you open up wasteland."
Shitou: "Huh?"
Yuanyuan puffed up her small breasts and said, "Wo! Give me a hand!"
The little hand pointed to the wasteland in the distance, and the little voice said loudly, "Play!"
Xiao Hui received the order and immediately ran over with her on his back. Seeing this, Shitou quickly picked up his hoe and followed.
Lu Chengjing was curious about what his daughter would do, and Xiao Huan was also curious, so he quickly pushed his wheelchair to join in the fun.
The land at the foot of the mountain is some distance from the entrance to the mountain forest. Even if it is cleared to grow vegetables, it will not affect the access of the villagers. This place is not far from the river, so it is convenient to get water.
After Shitou asked Shiliu, the old farmer, to help him take a look, he said that the soil here has accumulated rotten leaves all year round, and the soil is fertile enough, so it should be good to grow crops. There are a lot of weeds and shrubs, so it’s more troublesome to clean them up.
Father Liu suggested tactfully that everyone in the village was clearing up wasteland on the north slope. If Shitou really wanted to clear up wasteland, he could go there and have a look. It would be much easier than here. People in the village look after each other and can help each other depending on the situation.
Shitou refused at that time.
His sister said that it is better to rely on yourself than anyone else, and he had to follow his sister's example.
Beipo is far from home, and getting water is not as convenient as here. He can't count on the villagers to help him every day.
There are just more weeds and stones. At worst, it will take more time to sort them out.
Seeing that Shitou chose to face the difficulties, Mr. Liu even praised Shitou. He said Shitou was so beautiful in his heart.
Thinking about it now, the tears I shed now are all the water that went into my head when I was choosing the location.
嘤嘤嘤……
According to the standards, Shang Wan helped set aside two acres of land. The acre on the right was not moved at all, but the acre on the left was turned over by about a quarter. Every inch of the land was covered with the sweat of the hard work of the stone.
Shitou became worried when he saw the two pieces of wasteland. He turned around with his hoe and asked the confident little dumpling, "Yuanyuan, how are you going to help me?"
Yuanyuan glanced at him and stretched out her little hand towards him.
Stone:? ?
Lu Chengjing reminded from the side: "Milk bottle."
"Oh." Shitou quickly took the milk bottle from Xiao Huan, opened the lid and handed it to Yuanyuan.
Yuanyuan took two sips of milk with satisfaction, straightened her body, and began to clap her hands, "Come! Come!"
A pair of big black eyes are full of sparkles.
The three people present all tacitly chose to ignore Yuanyuan's abnormality and turned their heads to look around.
It was a monkey that came back last time, what will it be this time?
After a moment, rustling sounds came from the surrounding bushes.
The three of them looked serious, here they come!
Yuanyuan's slapping sound became softer, and her soft little milky voice kept saying, "Come! Come!"
Lu Chengjing and the others held their breath slightly and looked intently at the bushes that were shaking more and more violently.
