The large room was quite clean, the bedding on the bed was all washed white, and there was a set of old wooden cabinets in the corner.

Chen Jiahe didn't have many clothes, so her closet was not full.

The bed at home was a little high, and when Yuanyuan stood beside the bed, only the top of her head was visible. She had to use a stool to climb up shakily.

"Be careful."

007 looked at the wobbly stool with one leg missing and was worried that she would fall off it.

If she gets hurt from the fall, I guess the target may not be willing to spend money to treat her.

Yuanyuan lay on the bed and fumbled around for a while, then fell asleep in a lying position.

Noon——

After Chen Jiahe dealt with the cow dung in the side shed, he carried some dry corn stalks and spread them in.

I went back to the room and looked around, and found the child lying on the bed, sleeping soundly.

He opened the rice jar and scooped out a small bowl of rice, went to the kitchen to clean it out and made a pot of rice, put sauerkraut at the bottom, and also fried some cabbage and tofu.

The meal had just come out of the pot, and he was about to call the child to come for dinner, but the little guy woke up at some point and was standing at the kitchen door rubbing his eyes.

"Wash your hands and come eat."

Chen Jiahe scooped a bucket of water into the iron basin, then turned around to serve his own rice.

The little guy put his hands in and rubbed them seriously, shook off the water on his hands, went to the stove to look at him, and raised his little hands to pick up his own bowl.

The bowls at home are all old, and the small bowl for the children has a small cut on it, but it doesn’t affect its use.

"I won't eat this."

Yuanyuan picked up the black-looking vegetable leaves at the bottom of the bowl and tasted sour.

Homemade pickled cabbage is very sour and goes well with rice, but children just don’t like sour food.

"Don't waste it."

Chen Jiahe glanced at her, handed his bowl to her, and motioned for her to take some food from him.

He didn't have a good first impression of the picky eater.

007 looked at the panel behind him and banged his hairy head heavily on the operating table.

Can anyone tell him why his favorability suddenly dropped to -1?

It is completely unclear why Chen Jiahe was deducted points!

The Chen family is not as poor as it seems. Chen Jiahe can't eat much by himself, so there is a lot of food stored at home.

But he was always extremely wary of everyone, and no one knew his family background.

After dinner, Chen Jiahe washed the dishes and went to fetch water with a bucket.

Seeing this, Yuanyuan followed. There were many beautiful wild flowers blooming on the roadside in the summer, and the refreshing fragrance came into his nose when the wind blew.

There are three wells in the village, all of which are natural spring water. They are cool even in the summer and taste like ice water when you drink them.

Chen Jiahe walked in front carrying two full buckets of water, and the little one followed behind holding a bunch of wild flowers.

"Dad, when I grow up I will help you fetch water."

Yuanyuan’s skill in baking pancakes is getting better and better, and she can bake a fresh pancake anytime and anywhere.

"Don't yell, I'm not your dad."

Chen Jiahe is not an emotional person, and a few words cannot move his heart.

He prefers tangible benefits to empty talk.

"You are..."

Yuanyuan talked back to him in a low voice, saying that his father had a weird temper and the child was confused.

The villagers passing by saw the father and daughter and greeted them casually: "Jiahe, bring your children to fetch water!"

"Um…"

Chen Jiahe responded coldly. He didn't refute it not because he admitted it, but because it would cause unnecessary conversation. He didn't like talking to people much.

As neighbors for so many years, everyone knew his character, so he didn't feel treated coldly.

It was hot at noon, so after fetching water, Chen Jiahe went back to the house to rest.

The child had just woken up, so he was naturally not sleepy and was playing alone in the main room.

There was nothing fun at home, so Yuanyuan went to the side shed to look after the cows. The old ox was docile in nature, lying on the corn stalks and ruminating.

The child next to it grabbed its ears and muttered a lot of nonsense.

The old ox shook its head slowly and its tail hit the ground intermittently.

Chen Jiahe woke up and found that his child was missing. He called out but no one responded. Finally, he found the child hiding in a corner of a side room.

"Dad, you found me!"

There was a hint of surprise in Yuanyuan's dark eyes, and she ran towards him with her arms open.

"Did you hear me calling you?"

"I heard it!"

"Then why didn't you say anything?"

"I'm waiting for my dad to find me."

"..."

Chen Jiahe lowered his eyes and looked at the child who was grabbing his trouser leg. His mood broke down for a moment.

"Don't hide on purpose next time. I still have things to do."

"Okay!"

Yuanyuan held his hand and walked out, her little cloth shoes covered in dirt.

"..."

Chen Jiahe was a little angry when she saw the child jumping around as if nothing had happened, but when she thought about it carefully, she felt that this was how children should be.

Childhood should be carefree. Being timid and cowardly is not happy at all.

The weeds in the field still needed to be removed, so the father and daughter went to the field together.

Chen Jiahe worked very efficiently and left the children to play on the edge of the field.

After a while, the little guy suddenly ran over and started pulling the things out from behind him.

The wheat in the field has been harvested, and only some larger weeds need to be dealt with. The rest of the land only needs to be plowed once.

Chen Jiahe thought she came here just for fun on a whim, but after nearly twenty minutes, the child next to her was already sweating profusely from exhaustion, but was still grunting as she pulled out the weeds.

The little guy was very weak and couldn't pull out the grass by the roots. He could only pull out a few leaves at a time.

"Go play somewhere else, this is not your job."

Chen Jiahe picked her up and placed her in a cool place, and gradually his attitude towards her changed.

"I'll help Dad pull the grass."

Yuanyuan looked at the large piece of land in front of him and wondered how long it would take for his father to weed the land alone.

"No, just play by yourself for a while."

Chen Jiahe glanced at the mulberry tree growing beside the field, walked up to it, picked a handful of mulberry, and wrapped them in leaves and handed them to her.

If she had something to amuse herself with, she wouldn't think about weeding, which is not a job for a little kid like her.

Yuanyuan looked at the black and red bug-like thing in her arms, picked up one and put it in her mouth, it had a sweet taste.

But this fruit will stain your mouth and tongue, and after eating it, it will turn them black and purple.

"Like a calico cat."

Chen Jiahe looked at the dark look on her face and couldn't help but smile. The little mole at the corner of her lips seemed to be jumping for joy.

007, who had been dead for a while, came back to life after seeing his favorability level rising on the panel.

It has now increased to five percent, which is not a lot, but it is better than negative.

As the sun set, Chen Jiahe carried a small bundle of wild vegetables picked from the ground and went home with her child.

The golden setting sun shone on the ridge of the field, half of the light shone on the child's profile, and the small figure was stretched very long.
