The poor little girl who traveled through the book, her father was lazy, her mother was stingy, and

Moon stars are rare.

Those who have worked all day are already fast asleep.

Except for Xiao Lidong who was already asleep and Xiao Guyu who had just fallen asleep, everyone else in Lin Dajiang's family was very excited.

Li Taohua was left at home to look after the children.

Lin Dajiang brought his two half-grown children and knocked on the door of Li Erli next door.

After just one knock, the door opened.

Through the moonlight, Lin Xiaoman saw Li Erli's grinning white teeth.

It seems that this guy has been standing inside the door waiting, otherwise how could the door open as soon as I knocked on it?

"Brother Li, are you getting impatient?" Lin Jingzhe had been itching to wait for a long time, and his mind had already flown to the river bank.

"Here, take all this with you."

Li Erli took out a few things wrapped in rags that looked like sachets and gave one to each person.

"Hang the snake repellent bags made from snakes' backwards movements on your body. There are many snakes in the summer, especially at night." Li Erli took out four thin bamboo poles and said, "Take these with you, too, for safety."

Lin Xiaoman's scalp tingled when he heard the word snake.

She whispered to Lin Jingzhe: "Brother, are there many snakes in the river?"

Lin Jingzhe's eyes bulged and rolled around, "A lot, of course not a lot, you better follow closely later, don't be left alone."

Lin Xiaoman is afraid of snakes, insects, and vegetables.

But I still followed their footsteps.

The mountain village was very dark at night, with occasional sparks, but they were faint.

Fortunately, there was still some faint moonlight, flickering.

The four of them walked very quickly, each carrying a large backpack on his back, a bamboo pole in his hand, and a straw bag hanging around his waist.

Impressive.

Full of spirit.

The river water was a little cool at night. Lin Dajiang frowned and looked at Xiaoman.

"Xiao Man, fill your backpack and wait for us on the shore."

"Ah."

Lin Xiaoman nodded. Her father was not as lazy as he was in the novels. Instead, he was quite shrewd.

The four of them cooperated very well. The night was dark, but their hearts were burning with passion.

Soon, Lin Xiaoman's backpack was full.

Lin Jingzhe was worried, so he asked Lin Xiaoman to follow him ashore and found a big rock for her.

"Xiao Man, just sit here. Dad and I will continue."

Lin Xiaoman was afraid that the shrimps would die, so he immersed most of the backpack in the water, pulled the hemp rope on the backpack himself, sat on a rock, and watched three people casting nets to catch shrimps not far away.

"Quack, quack."

"Chi chi chi chi."

The quiet night is filled with the croaking of frogs and chirping of insects, and a breeze blows, bringing coolness to the whole body.

Soon, another backpack was full and was brought over by Lin Jingzhe and handed to Lin Xiaoman.

"Don't fall into the river." He instructed, and quickly turned around and reunited with the two.

It took more than half an hour to fill the four backpacks.

The four of them returned walking on the moon, their scattered footsteps sounding brisk and satisfying.

Lin Dajiang patted Li Erli on the shoulder and said, "Erli, continue tomorrow."

Li Erli smiled innocently: "Okay! Uncle Dajiang."

As soon as Li Erli left, Li Taohua came out of the room.

She asked Lin Xiaoman and Lin Jingzhe to put down their backpacks and rushed them to wash up. "Xiaoman, there is hot water in the stove, take it and use it."

Girls are precious, but boys are ignored.

Li Taohua and Lin Dajiang took care of the rest of the work.

All the better cloth in the house was washed by Li Taohua and hung out to dry in the yard.

The caught long-bearded insects were washed one by one, and when the night became quieter, Lin Dajiang started a fire while Li Taohua steamed the insects, working in perfect harmony.

After everything was done, the two of them washed and wiped themselves clean and went to bed in their clothes.

The next morning, Lin Dajiang went out early, and Lin Jingzhe ran to the field of Li Erli next door to help plant rice.

Li Taohua took Lin Xiaoman and Lin Guyu to dry the long-bearded worms in the sun.

Lin Guyu covered her mouth and laughed secretly, looking at Lin Xiaoman and said, "Sister, there are so many long-bearded insects. Do we not have to eat black porridge mixed with wheat bran in winter?"

"Hush! Let's eat the delicious food secretly." Lin Xiaoman blinked and warned: "Don't tell anyone about Guyu. If you tell anyone, Dad and Brother won't be able to catch the long-bearded insect."

"Well, Guyu won't tell." Lin Guyu said in a baby voice, "If you tell me, grandma will come and snatch it away."

"It's not just grandma!" Lin Xiaoman laughed and threatened the child, "There will also be uncles, aunts, grandpas and grandmas from every family in the village who will come to grab the money. Daddy won't be able to beat them then."

Li Taohua did not stop it.

Xiaoman is right, the fact that the long-bearded insect is not poisonous cannot be concealed for long.

They can only take care of themselves and get through this winter.

At noon, Lin Dajiang came back.

In his hand he held a torn oilcloth.

Li Taohua washed and dried the clothes again, and Lin Dajiang went to the backyard with a hoe.

Lin Xiaoman closed the door and entered the space while taking a nap.

The finished rice balls were still warm.

amazing.

If so, could she put the shrimp into the space to cook it?

Once it’s ready, you can eat it whenever you want.

I must try it tonight. The shrimps I caught before were cooked by my mother.

After eating a rice ball, Lin Xiaoman left the space and told Li Taohua that he wanted to go to the foot of the mountain to take a look.

Li Taohua was worried, so she said something to Lin Dajiang and accompanied Lin Xiaoman out.

The two men carried baskets on their backs and picked up edible wild vegetables as they walked. They put them into the baskets.

After walking and stopping, we soon reached the foot of the mountain.

There is a dilapidated old house at the foot of the mountain, with a leaking roof and half of the wall collapsed.

"Mom, is that wild onion?" Lin Xiaoman pointed to a corner behind the dilapidated house.

Li Taohua walked closer and took a look. "That's true. Let's dig it up with the soil and plant it in the yard."

A Niang had a smile on her face, no longer worrying about Li Erli's family running out of wild onions.

I don’t know if it was good luck or something, but this large patch of wild onions was intact and not dug up by anyone.

Li Taohua was happily digging wild onions, and she didn't even notice that sweat was dripping down her face.

Lin Xiaoman wandered around and looked into the dilapidated house.

It's really a shabby house. There's nothing in it except a few broken pieces of wood.

Hi!

She patted her forehead.

She is so stupid. If there is something, will it still be her turn?

I’m afraid I won’t be able to dig up even a handful of wild onions.

I wandered around the mountain for another half an hour, but found nothing except wild vegetables.

After returning home, Li Taohua put down her backpack, took the wild onions she had dug and went to the backyard to plant them, sprinkled water on them, and looked at them happily for a while before returning to the front.

For dinner, we had some cold wild vegetables, which had no seasoning and were not very tasty.

But Lin Dajiang and his wife enjoyed the meal.

After dinner, Dad chopped firewood and Mom washed the dishes.

Lin Jingzhe was waving a bamboo pole around, while Lin Xiaoman was wandering around with Lin Guyu.

This family is still poor.

The huge yard was empty, with nothing in it.

If I could raise a few chickens, ducks, a Wangcaipa, plant fruits and vegetables, move a rocking chair to the yard and sit in the breeze.

Rustling.

That's what makes it interesting.
