In the pasture, in the kitchen.

"Previously, your Grandpa and your father discussed it. Xiao An and Lian'er are getting married at the age of sixteen. We, the Fourteenth, will go back to Sunjiagou to burn incense and worship our ancestors. The main purpose is to take Lian'er to visit your Grandma and kowtow to the elderly.

He's tall and all, so I can tell you, grandma, that our little An is finally going to get married and start a business."

When Mrs. Sun talked about the deceased Mrs. Sun, she had a faint smile on her face, but her eyes were full of sadness in recollection.

Yang Ruoqing and Xiaoduo looked at each other silently, and the two sisters had no intention of making trouble anymore.

Yang Ruoqing said: "Speaking of which, I haven't gone to Ga Po's grave to burn incense for more than a year. I will discuss it with Tang Yazi later and at least one of us will have to send one person back to Sunjiagou."

Xiaoduo said: "Me too, I want to go too!"

Yang Ruoqing glanced at Xiaoduo's belly and said, "You'd better not go."

Xiaoduo caressed her belly, which was not yet pregnant: "It's almost four months, and I'm holding on tight."

Yang Ruoqing smiled and said, "We will have to travel over mountains and ridges, and you, a pregnant woman, are not suitable."

Xiaoduo was anxious, "What's wrong with that? Other pregnant women can still fetch water, cut rice, and plant crops when they are about to give birth. I can climb mountains with no problem!"

But Yang Ruoqing still shook her head, "This is no joke. People are different. It doesn't matter if others represent you. If you don't believe me, just ask your mother!"

Xiaoduo then looked at Mrs. Sun, "Mother~"

Mrs. Sun looked at Xiaoduo lovingly and said: "Your sister is right, be careful when sailing a thousand-year boat. If something happens to you halfway, what can you do? Your grandma is alive in heaven and I hope you will be well."

of."

Xiaoduo was a little annoyed, "Since I can't go, you just told me, aren't you asking me to prick you?"

"Let Sheng Nan go for you." Yang Ruoqing said.

Sun also advised, but Xiaoduo could only sigh and no longer persisted.

At noon, lunch was finally put on the table. Large and small dishes, plates, and clay pots were put directly on the table. The ground pot chicken in the small iron pot was sizzling, and the belly pork was simmering in the white soup.

Ups and downs...

Xiaoduo made wine for Lao Yangtou and Lao Suntou, and Xiang Shengnan came to help pour the wine. The aroma in the room made people salivate...

Logically speaking, all the people in this room are from well-off families and have no worries about food and clothing. Even though they are so greedy, it shows how successful Xiaoduo is in cooking this meal!

In response to this, the cattle dealer, who had drank two cups of soju, was even more glowing, feeling proud that he could prepare such a sumptuous and unique meal to entertain everyone.

After the meal, the elders stayed in the pasture for a while. The cattle dealer pushed Old Yangtou, and Old Suntou followed beside him. Yang Huazhong also accompanied them, and everyone went to wander around the pasture together.

For Lao Suntou and Yang Huazhong, the grassland is no stranger at all, and Yang Huazhong often comes to help.

As for Lao Suntou, because of the flooding last time, the Sun family took dozens of pigs and took refuge in the pasture, where they stayed for nearly twenty days.

During that time, Lao Suntou walked all over the pasture, and even felt clearly what was outside the pasture wall.

So the most novel person here is Old Yangtou. He has come to the pasture no more than three times, including this time.

Although it is already the middle of winter and the pastures are not as prosperous as they were in spring and summer, looking at the majestic scenery in front of you and the groups of cattle lying on the grass chewing dry grass poles and basking in the sun, the scenery is still very beautiful.

Eye-catching.

"It's really nice to live on the grassland. It's quiet and peaceful. Looking at the grass, trees and cattle every day, my whole mind becomes calmer and broader."

Everyone stopped on a high ground and looked around. Old Yangtou was not only impressed.

I stay in the village every day, going back and forth to Lao Jiangtou and the other old men's houses. Now and then I go to the pasture to feel the different living environment, and my mood seems to have been washed away.

Previously, I had been worried about Xiao An going to the He family to celebrate the New Year. It seemed that he was blocked by something and felt unhappy. But now he got out of the way for no apparent reason, and he suddenly became open-minded and cheerful.

"Old man, if you like this place, let Lao San or Yu Xingkui take you here to play from time to time!" The cattle dealer extended a sincere invitation to Lao Yangtou.

Old Yangtou smiled happily and nodded immediately: "Okay, this is what you said. From now on, I will come here every now and then to see the cattle. Don't bother me, a bad old man."

The cattle dealer immediately said seriously and loudly: "Conscience of heaven and earth, it's too late for me to be happy. Old man, you and my old uncle Sun, you are both distinguished guests that our Lao Xiang family can't even invite!"

One is Xiaoduo's grandfather, and the other is Xiaoduo's grandpa. They all have the same age and seniority.

Lao Yangtou laughed heartily, and his smooth mood was even better.

As for the women, Yang Ruoqing helped Xiaoduo clean up the kitchen, and Mrs. Sun and Ms. Sun were chatting with their sisters.

The two old sisters sat on the pony, one holding a bowl of tea in his hand and drinking it slowly, the other holding a handful of melon seeds and sipping them leisurely.

Yang Ruoqing and Xiao Duo were wearing aprons and standing by the pot. One was responsible for sorting the used greasy dishes and chopsticks together, and the other was responsible for cleaning the pot and washing the dishes.

He Lian'er and Huang Mao took their four children to play under the sun at the door of the kitchen, and the children's laughter and laughter came into the kitchen from time to time.

From time to time, Da Sun would shout outside, telling Da Shunzi to run as fast as possible. He was covered in sweat when he turned around and was startled by the wind.

Whenever this happens, Huang Mao will poke his head into the kitchen and explain in a good-natured way: "Mom, don't worry, I'm keeping an eye on him."

Mrs. Sun felt relieved and went on to eat her watermelon seeds.

In the kitchen, Ms. Sun continued to tell everyone about her trip back to Sunjiagou, mainly what she planned to bring with her.

Because it was the Chinese New Year, Mrs. Sun also prepared cold clothes and cold food for Mrs. Sun.

"Your mother-in-law has a hard life. She suffered a lot in the first half of her life. She only enjoyed a few years of happiness after leaving the mountains and coming to Changping Village. Originally, I thought that with her body and bones, it would be possible to live to seven or eighty years old.

, but I didn’t expect to leave at that age..."

Mrs. Sun lowered her head and stared at the uppers of her shoes, her eyes already moist.

As for Mrs. Sun, her eyes had already turned red, and she was still mumbling to herself while holding a tea bowl: "I dreamed about you a while ago, and you were still looking as good as before. You were smiling and walking with a basket on your back."

In a hurry, it was just like when I was a child, when she was still young and often carried baskets with the aunts in the village to dig wild vegetables in the mountains and fields. Life was difficult in those years. She couldn't eat enough and had to work during the day.

, only at night do we have time to dig wild vegetables and bamboo shoots in the mountains together..."
