Farmer's eldest sister becomes rich

So I asked, "Sister, are you weaving a cage?"

"Yes! Why do you come back earlier than usual on this day?"

"Today, the teacher asked each of us to recite poems. The sooner we finish reciting, the sooner we can leave. If we finish reciting in one breath every year, we can come back."

"Niannian is awesome! I'm going to reward Niannian with something delicious too."

When An Nian heard that there was something delicious, he looked around with his round eyes and said, "Sister, what is delicious?"

"Go into the room and change your clothes first, and then I'll perform magic tricks for you when you come out."

An Nian took off the cloth bag slung over his shoulder and ran quickly to his room.

After a while, An Nian changed his clothes and came out of the room, and asked anxiously, "Sister, where is the delicious food?"

"Niannian, close your eyes first." An Nian did as he was told.

An Yue gently placed the backpack in front of An Nian, and then said to An Nian, "You can open your eyes now!"

An Yue smiled and pointed at the basket. An Nian quickly squatted down, stretched out his hand to push aside the ferns and saw that it was a red fruit. An Nian smiled and asked, "Sister, what is this?"

"Raspberry, try it first and see if you like the taste." After saying that, An Yue turned around and went back to dividing the bamboo strips.

An Nian picked up a few and put them in his mouth. He chewed them and said in surprise, "Sister, these raspberries are more delicious than candied haws!" After that, he put a few more in his mouth.

An Yue watched An Nian eat raspberries, and he just swallowed them whole mixed with the raspberry butts.

So, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't eat raspberry butt every year. Raspberry butt tastes a bit astringent and affects the taste."

After hearing what An Yue said, An Nian quickly pulled off the butt of the raspberry and put it in his mouth.

"Yeah, it's true. This way it tastes even better, sour and sweet without any astringency." An Nian put a few more into his mouth, shaking his little head, and eating with relish.

While eating, he smiled and said, "It's so delicious! I like it very much, hehe, thank you sister."

In this way, An Nian sat under the eaves eating raspberries, and An Yue sat in the yard dividing bamboo strips.

I don’t know when, the setting sun has quietly hidden in the western mountains, and night is about to fall.

Chunzhi prepared dinner in the kitchen. She poked her head out and called out, "Miss, Master, dinner is ready!"

Then, An Nian stood up, brushed the dust off his butt, prepared to wash his hands, and then helped to get the dishes.

As soon as An Nian entered the kitchen, he found Ba Shi, so he squatted down, picked up Ba Shi and started playing with him, completely forgetting about setting the table for dinner.

"Niannian, his name is Bashi. From now on, he will be responsible for guarding our house. You are not allowed to bully him!" An Yue said to An Nian with a smile while washing her hands.

After setting up the dishes and chopsticks, the three of them started to have dinner around the octagonal table.

A quarter of an hour later, they had dinner.

At this time, the moonlight was like water sprinkling in the yard.

After An Nian finished his dinner, he wiped his mouth casually and ran to hug Ba Shi in a hurry.

An Nian carried Ba Shi to the yard and sat down, gently stroking its fur.

And Ba Shi lay comfortably in An Nian's arms with his eyes slightly closed.

Chunzhi collected the dishes on the table and went to the kitchen to wash them. After An Yue wiped the table and put the bench in place, she also came to the yard.

Under the moonlight, An Yue continued her work of weaving bamboo cages.

An Nian said to An Yue: "Sister, Ba Shi seems to like Nian Nian very much!"

"That's natural. Eighty is very human."

"Sister, our home is becoming more and more lively now."

An Yue squatted down and pinched An Nian's cheek, saying, "It will only get better and better, and more and more lively in the future."

The moonlight tonight was exceptionally beautiful. After Chunzhi cleaned the kitchen, she moved a stool from the main hall and sat in the yard. The three of them chatted and laughed, ate raspberries, and enjoyed the beauty and tranquility that belonged to them.

The next day.

After breakfast, An Nian went to the school in town.

And An Yue continued to weave the bamboo cage. After last night's overtime, the bamboo cage was about to be completed.

So she said to Chunzhi, "Chunzhi, go dig in the wasteland on the east side of the yard first. I will come to find you after I finish making this bamboo cage."

Having had experience in weaving a bamboo cage before, An Yue was able to weave the bamboo cage quickly and well this time.

Just as the morning hour arrived, An Yue's bamboo cage was completely completed.

The bamboo cage is about one square meter long and wide, and is shaped like an inverted basin.

An Yue put the chicks inside and brought a stone slab from outside the yard, which pressed down the bamboo cage firmly.

An Yue looked very suitable and the size was just right. Although it was not exquisite in appearance, it was much better than the first time.

The bamboo cages for raising chickens have been completed, as well as the beehives, and An Yue is in distress again.

She thought carefully about the 21st century and realized that most of the beehives she had seen before were made of wooden boards. There were no nails here, and many tools were incomplete. She really didn't know how to start.

An Yue thought about it over and over again, but couldn't figure it out.

So, she decided to put it aside for the time being. She turned around, took her sickle and backpack, and prepared to go to the wasteland to dig shepherd's purse.

She took a sickle and a basket on her back and went to the wasteland, and saw that Chunzhi had already dug a large area of ​​wasteland.

An Yue said to Chunzhi from a distance: "Chunzhi, you are digging the ground by yourself, and you are digging quite fast!"

Chunzhi smiled happily when An Yue praised her, and said, "There is a young lady competing with me, and she dug even faster than this! By the way, young lady, have you finished weaving the bamboo cage?"

An Yue was squatting in the wasteland digging shepherd's purse and said leisurely, "Yes, it's done. The chicks have been put in."

"Hehe, Chunzhi is a little curious about what this bamboo cage looks like!" Chunzhi said with a smile while waving a hoe.

"You'll see them when we go back to make lunch. To be honest, this bamboo cage isn't well made, so let's just use it for now! When they grow up a bit, they won't need it anymore."

"To Chunzhi, although you are young, you can do everything. Chunzhi admires you the most."

"I didn't expect you to be so good at praising people!" An Yue felt a little embarrassed after being praised by Chunzhi.

An Yue and Chun Zhi were in the wasteland, one digging the ground and the other digging shepherd's purse.

An Yue planned to deliver the shepherd's purse dumplings to the firecracker shop early tomorrow morning.

When Uncle Lin Hua comes back to visit his relatives, he will not be able to stay for long before returning to the county town.

These shepherd's purse dumplings should not only be given to the chief clerk, but also to Uncle Lin and his wife.

We also need to give a portion to Uncle Lin Hua and his family of three, and keep some for ourselves.

So An Yue thought about being more quick with her hands and feet, digging more shepherd's purse, and naturally making more dumplings.

Fortunately, there were a lot of plants growing in this wasteland. An Yue dug them up regardless of whether they were big or small and put them into the backpack first.

Before I knew it, it was already noon.
