"You three brothers go and help your sister wash up. After that, bring Yingbao to the main room for dinner." Mother spoke softly and hurried back to the kitchen.

On the east side of the outer room of Grandma Wang Cuihua's family is the kitchen, a kitchen shared by four families. The kitchen has two earthen stoves, each with a large iron pot, one for boiling water and the other for cooking. It is very convenient and can also serve as a warm bed.

The weather in the north is very cold. Grandma Wang Cuihua and Grandpa Ye Yaozu are old, so they move from the inner room to the outer room in winter. Every night before going to bed, they boil a pot of hot water, which can be used to heat the kang, wash feet, and take a bath. It's so wonderful!

There are two cupboards made of wooden boards in the outer room. The larger one is filled with rice, flour, and eggs; the smaller one is filled with bowls, chopsticks, basins, knives, etc. Both cupboards are locked, for fear that thieves will climb over the wall and steal the basic necessities of life.

My grandparents had the foresight to divide the family property a few years ago, fearing that their sons would get into conflicts with their brothers after getting married. Besides, dividing the family property did not mean completely severing ties, it just meant not dividing the hearts.

Every year, the three families pay 10 yuan for their old age care. Whatever they earn is saved or spent by themselves and has nothing to do with the two old people. Fortunately, the brothers and sisters-in-law get along well with each other, and they help each other when any family has difficulties.

The old Ye family has three branches. The eldest uncle Ye Tiancheng and the eldest aunt Lin Wan have three children: the eldest son Ye Heyun, the second son Ye Shaoyu, and the youngest son Ye Zilin.

The second uncle Ye Tianwang and the second aunt Zhou Xiayun have two sons, the eldest son Ye Lingfan and the youngest son Ye Yuezhou;

The third wife, Ye Tianyong, has four children under the name of Wang Yitong, three sons and one daughter; the eldest son is Ye Yuanhang, the second son is Ye Haoyu, the third son is Ye Mingchen, and the youngest daughter is Ye Ying, who is the beloved treasure of the whole Ye family.

Why do we say that the whole family loves you?

Because the Ye family has only male descendants for three generations, and they have finally had a daughter after waiting for several generations, so shouldn’t the whole family love the baby?

The whole family was washing vegetables, cutting potatoes, even the younger uncle and second uncle's Zilin and Yuezhou were busy adding firewood to the earthen stove. Their butts were so adorable. Occasionally, when they looked up, they would see two little cats, which really made all the adults laugh!

Especially the eldest aunt was not in a hurry to let her youngest son wash his face, but was still teasing cousin Zilin in a naughty way: "Son, you are really an expert in adding firewood. Mom is so proud of you!"

But cousin Zilin still believed it and turned around to look at his aunt with a silly smile and said, "Really? Mom! From now on, small things like lighting the fire and adding firewood will be left to me."

Haha~ The whole family burst into laughter again. Looking at the mysterious smile on cousin Zilin's face, he didn't look very smart, I really wanted to wake him up loudly, "It's a pity that I'm just a baby." How could the unscrupulous aunt let cousin Zilin get into trouble.

"It's time to eat. Xiaoyingbao was eating egg custard and thinking about how I can help the Ye family improve their food without getting caught."

I watched the whole family eating the small wild vegetable dumplings and drinking a bowl of porridge. In the eyes of modern people in the 2021st century, this bowl of porridge may not even be considered soup, because there are only a few kinds of rice in the bowl, but in Huxing Village and some surrounding villages, this is already the best meal. Some people can't even eat rice and can only eat tree bark. Some even sell their children and wives to exchange for a bite of food.
