The next day, Guxian Village.

The villagers were talking about it early in the morning. Everyone knew that Zhao Guochang had returned, and some people even asked what was going on.

Even the village chief was alarmed.

After all, I heard a long time ago that Zhao Guochang found a good job in the county. He suddenly came back with his family. What must have happened?

"Everyone, go home first. It's okay. We're just coming back to stay for a while. It's almost the busy farming season in a few days, and my father can't handle it alone, so we came back to help." Zhao Guochang explained.

"The scholar is a filial son. The busy farming season will begin soon and we really are short of manpower," said some villagers.

Everyone was talking about it for a while.

After Zhao Guochang finished speaking, he left quickly to avoid the villagers asking him questions.

It's not enough to just get home, you also have to close the gate.

A man returned to his room, thinking silently.

Zhao Yu was a little worried, but she didn't say anything and just did her work silently.

After returning to the old house, there is always something to do.

The entire family of the first wife went to the mountains to pick mushrooms, and the housework was left to Zhao Yushi, who has been so busy that she hasn't had a rest yet.

***

Zhao Laoer’s house is at the end of the village.

"Mom, do we have to go back today?" Wang Ronghua tried to persuade her to stay.

"Well, I've been here for so many days. Now that you guys have resolved your issues, I naturally have to go back. Otherwise, I won't feel at ease leaving your father alone. I guess he hasn't eaten well recently and is just eating whatever he wants." Min Wenying said.

"Well, okay, let's have breakfast, deliver the goods to the town and then go back. I'll go back to see Dad too," said Wang Ronghua.

"Okay, I've never seen your delivery before, so I'll have the chance this time." Min Wenying grinned.

Wang Ronghua nodded.

There haven't been many harvests at home recently, so the mushroom meat sauce I made is not much, but there are still hand-peeled bamboo shoots. Although I came back very late last night, someone carried some mushrooms to sell early in the morning, so I did harvest some, although not a large quantity.

I have just collected a basket of wild fruits.

Zhao Shihui got up early to see the three sheep.

He would feed the grass before studying his lessons, which was something he had to do every day.

I feel uncomfortable if I don’t do it for a day.

And the lambs are starting to be weaned.

There doesn't seem to be that much milk.

But compared to before, I have been mowing a lot more grass recently.

All the goat milk was squeezed out by grandma and boiled for the three of them to drink. The last few days when my youngest sister was away from home were the times when they drank the most milk.

From today on, they will have no milk to drink because it all has to be left for the little sister.

After Zhao Shiying came back, she slept very soundly and hasn't woken up yet.

After eating and preparing everything, they drove the ox cart directly to the town.

When they arrived in the town, they delivered the goods to the shopkeeper Peng of Yuelai Inn. The Chen family also got some. Then they bought some more things and went to Wangjia Village.

"Dad, we're back." Wang Ronghua shouted towards the yard.

Wang Haiming just came out from inside.

"You're back! You came back just in time. I just entered the house and was about to come out to drink some water when I heard you calling." Wang Haiming was so happy to see everyone there, especially the old woman.

Finally, he doesn’t have to eat the random meals he makes anymore. He almost vomited after eating them for the past few days.

I never want to enter the kitchen again.

The food his wife cooks is still the most delicious. I have never gotten tired of it even after eating it all my life.

These days, Wang Haiming finally realized the difficulty of a good cook having no rice to cook.

It's like he has rice at home, so what? He doesn't know how to cook.

Fortunately, someone in the village knew about it and invited him to a few meals, so it was manageable.

"Dad, you haven't eaten well these days. I'll make you something delicious at noon today to make it up to you." Wang Ronghua said with a smile.

"That's great. I'm waiting to eat." Wang Haiming was not polite.

Anyway, she is his daughter, so it's his duty.

Min Wenying looked at Wang Haiming again and saw that he had lost some weight.

So a few of them started preparing lunch while chatting and laughing.

Zhao Guocheng and Wang Haiming were talking about things in the county. Wang Haiming was very happy to know that Zhao Guochang was rescued.

He also comforted Zhao Guocheng with a few words.

The children were playing in the yard, and Zhao Shiying was held by Wang Haiming. Unfortunately, Zhao Shiying wanted to be put down after a while.

Zhao Guocheng knew that the little girl was definitely going out to play.

"Let me do it. Although I'm small, I'm very smart. When I see the brothers playing, I will definitely join in." After Zhao Guocheng said this, he walked forward and grabbed Zhao Shiying's armpits with both hands to let her walk.

Although the posture is a bit strange, Zhao Shiying walks quite handsomely!

"Little sister, come quickly, help me guard this place, I want to catch this katydid." Zhao Shihui shouted immediately when he saw Zhao Shiying coming.

This grasshopper can really run.

Iron Grasshopper

He jumped three feet high, which was a bit exaggerated, but he was really jumping!

When Zhao Shiying heard this, her eyes lit up and she immediately pounced forward. Fortunately, Zhao Guocheng held her tightly, otherwise she would have fallen down.

Zhao Shiying was very obedient now and squatted there, watching Zhao Shihui catch katydids.

Unfortunately, Zhao Shihui failed to catch it after several attempts, as this katydid was quite active.

"Hey, I don't believe it. I can't catch it." Zhao Shihui tried to grab it with both hands again, unwilling to believe it.

Zhao Shisheng almost cried with laughter. He had never seen such a stupid brother who couldn't even catch a katydid.

[My second brother is so stupid! He can't even catch a stupid bug.] When Zhao Shiying said this, everyone couldn't help laughing.

Especially Zhao Shisheng, who laughed even more unscrupulously.

"Come if you have the guts?" Zhao Shihui was angry.

This grasshopper is going against him today.

"Okay, I'll do it." Zhao Shisheng was very confident.

[Get out of the way, I'll do it.] Zhao Shiying's inner voice appeared again, and at the same time, her two feet quickly walked forward. Zhao Guocheng could only follow her to prevent Zhao Shiying from falling.

[Stop right there, you stinky bug!] Zhao Shiying shouted,

This made Zhao Shihui, Zhao Shisheng and Zhao Shimin laugh so hard.

"Little sister, you are dreaming. If the katydid listens to you, it will not be a katydid anymore." Zhao Shihui grinned.

Wang Haiming was very happy to watch such a childlike scene.

However, to everyone's surprise, the katydid really stopped running away.

No more running!!!

Even when Zhao Shiying reached out her hand, it didn't run away, and Zhao Shiying caught the katydid easily.

Anyway, the katydid is tired now, so just take a rest.

Everyone: "......"

Zhao Shihui was particularly puzzled and didn't understand.

How could there be such an annoying katydid?

"Biased, Grasshopper is biased." Zhao Shihui got angry and ran over to hit Grasshopper, but Grasshopper was like a quail in Zhao Shiying's hands and didn't move at all.

"Hahaha~~~"

The crowd roared with laughter.

After all, the same katydid will have different effects when caught by different people.

[My second brother is such a loser, how can I blame Grasshopper? ] Zhao Shiying thought to herself.

Zhao Shihui was furious!
