The seven emotions and six desires are all my nourishment

Li Xiucai took it with a red face. This time he ate it more politely and did not thank him repeatedly.

[Miss Zhang is being too blunt. He's almost embarrassed...]

Before Yaoyao could ask anything else, his father's loud voice came from the door, "Yaoyao, get some water for Daddy!"

"Hey, here we come!"

"Take a rest first, don't move or you'll vomit!" Yaoyao took the bowl and left without waiting for Li Xiucai to say anything.

Li Xiucai touched his round belly, his face flushed. He really couldn't move now...

"Dad, you wash your face and I'll do the rest." Yaoyao took a towel and added warm water to it and went over.

His father never said a single nice word and had to be tough, "You're so pretentious. Add hot water. Cold water will do. Isn't firewood a hassle?" If his mouth wasn't so wide open, I would really believe he was unhappy.

"Say it again! From now on, I'll give you cold water to bathe in winter! I'll give you raw meat! Say it again and see!" Yaoyao put the piglet down, put one hand on his waist, pointed at his father with the other, and said fiercely.

"What are you talking about? Oh, right, I went to several houses today and found some boars and sows. If we can raise them well this year, we can sell piglets too."

"Well, Dad is hungry, you cook!"

Old Man Zhang is always mean, but he always gives in and is very capable.

Yaoyao snorted, "You just know how to piss me off every day. If I get pissed off one day, I'll see if you feel bad!"

Old Man Zhang didn't dare to speak and just kept washing his face.

Listening to the father and daughter bickering outside, he felt envious. He also missed his parents...

The eight little pigs were locked in a pigsty with straw laid out in the corners. The little pigs had to starve for two days, otherwise they would die.

So there is no need to worry about what these kids eat. Yaoyao washes her hands and goes to cook. The porridge is ready.

She grabbed a bowl of pickled vegetables, shredded them, added some vinegar and two drops of sesame oil, and it smelled very good.

It was the time when there was a shortage of food, and there was no vegetable to cook. So I took out the tofu from my backpack and made some tofu with green onions.

I fried eggs with some Chinese toon, and washed a large basin of chicken greens from the yard and fried a small bowl of them.

The bacon and sausage are steamed directly with the steamed buns.

The table for the father and daughter was also very sumptuous. She had just finished cleaning up when she heard his father shouting.

"Ah! Who is it!" Old Man Zhang was really frightened. He was taking off his clothes and going into the house. When he looked up, he saw a half-dead person lying on the kang.

His face was pale and grayish, and he was extremely skinny. It was so scary!

Li Xiucai's face turned red. He raised his head but didn't say anything, which allowed Old Man Zhang to see clearly who it was.

A voice came from outside the window, "Dad, I forgot to tell you, I found Li Xiucai in the ditch at the entrance of the village. He was so hungry that he fainted. I carried him back."

"Dad, come out and eat!"

Yaoyao was very quick and skillful. She brought the food and put it on the table at the door. Although it was March or April in spring, it was still a bit stuffy to eat in the house, and both father and daughter didn't like it.

"Uncle Zhang, I'm sorry for being rude..." Li Xiucai was really bored now. His face turned slightly red, but he looked much better.

When Father Zhang saw that it was Li Luo, he sighed that this child had a hard life.

He stroked his pounding heart secretly and said, "It's okay, you should take a rest. You haven't been back for so long, the room must be covered with dust. Just sleep here tonight!"

"Are you starving? Get up and eat something!"

"Thank you, Uncle Zhang. Sister Yaoyao has already prepared a meal for me. You must be tired, so go and have your meal first." Little Li was so full that his voice was weak.

"It's different after you've studied. You speak more pleasantly. Then you can take a rest and sleep here at night." Father Zhang felt embarrassed when he heard Li Luowen's eloquent and polite way of speaking. It was a very strange feeling.

This is different from the flower scholar who has dog eyes on his head. Anyway, it is comfortable and makes people feel that reading is good!

Without waiting for Li Xiucai to reply, Old Man Zhang ran out as if his butt was on fire. He was a little scared of this weak and self-incapable girl who was also well-educated and very polite.

Just... very uncomfortable.

If it was Hua Xiucai, he could still despise him, but if someone dared to scold him, he would dare to fight back.

Don't be fooled by his tall and strong appearance, I am afraid of this kind of people.

Li Xiucai found it funny that both the father and daughter were impatient and kind-hearted.

He listened to the noises of people eating outside the house. The father and daughter were talking about building a chicken coop in the corner of the yard and that two acres of land needed to be fertilized. It was a scattered and homely conversation, filled with the air of everyday life.

Before I knew it, he fell asleep, and I felt particularly at ease...

Now that everything is in ruins, the new emperor is working hard to govern the country and is still very tolerant towards the people. The imperial examination is held every two years to select talents.

Although the war has not ended yet, the Central Plains has been largely pacified.

Li Xiucai slept until dark, and was woken up by Yaoyao, "Get up and eat, then go back to sleep after eating!"

Li Xiucai woke up. Yaoyao breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest. Li Xiucai avoided her gaze...

"You were sleeping so soundly that I couldn't wake you up no matter how hard I tried. I thought you were dead!"

Li Xiucai: ...That’s not the case.

"Hurry up, wipe your face and think about food"

"I'm going out. Your pee bubble must be big. You drank so much porridge and sugar water, and you slept for most of the day without getting up to pee. That's amazing." Yaoyao exclaimed enviously.

Li Xiucai didn't feel anything at first, and his body was still a little sluggish, but after she said that... he suddenly felt extremely urgent to pee, and felt that if he was a step later he would pee on the kang!

Li Xiucai hurriedly got off the kang, put on his shoes and ran to the toilet. At first he couldn't pee, but after standing for a long time, he peed a lot...

As soon as Li Xiucai came out of the toilet, he saw the father and daughter sitting down and the meal was ready.

Li Xiucai felt that he had never been so embarrassed in his life. His face turned red and he walked to the dining table and slowly sat down.

"Hey, go wash your hands!" Yaoyao frowned.

Li Xiucai felt that his face was so hot that it could burn eggs!

He stood up so hard that he almost knocked the stool over. "I forgot. I'll wash it right away."

Father Zhang didn't dare to say anything at this moment, because he had cut off the piglet's testicles that time, and then, without washing his hands, he grabbed a steamed bun for her to eat, and the child was unwilling to eat with dirty hands.

Li Xiucai didn't know the reason and thought... The more he thought about it, the more embarrassed he became.

After rubbing his hands several times and washing his face, Li Xiucai sat down. Then a bowl of golden and shiny chicken soup filled with chicken pieces was stuffed into his hands.

"Uncle, please don't do this. Just give some nourishment to little sister Yaoyao." Everyone knows how precious farm chickens are.

"No need. We are both much stronger than you. I hunted this chicken, so don't worry about eating it. There are plenty of them on the mountain. It's only your thin arms and legs that can't catch one. It's okay to eat it." Father Zhang took a big bite of the steamed bun and said nonchalantly.

"Yeah, don't faint from hunger again, eat quickly, it's a big pot, add more if it's not enough, you see it's so hard for you to eat a meal." Yaoyao drank a mouthful of chicken soup

Although the father and daughter's words were rather heartbreaking, they were genuinely warm-hearted. Li Xiucai thought of Yaoyao's words, "When there are too many lice, you don't feel the itch," which was particularly appropriate. "Let's drink. This matter is not a big deal."
