After dying early, I traveled to ancient times and became a boy

Being a stranger in a foreign land, I miss my family all the more during every festive occasion...

As the Mid-Autumn Festival draws closer, the moon in the sky becomes rounder and rounder, and Ye Qing's homesickness becomes stronger and stronger.

When he was young, the Mid-Autumn Festival was very lively every year. His brothers and sisters, grandparents, and many relatives would come to their house for a gathering.

Such happy days were broken by illness.

In the early years, when his condition was mild, he would have guests over. But later, when his condition became more severe, his parents no longer had the energy to hold gatherings, and the family would just have a simple meal.

Ye Qing usually could only watch but not eat. But seeing his parents finish the food he made, Ye Qing was happy.

At that time, Ye Qing prayed every day, praying that he could live a few more years and spend a few more years with his parents.

Fortunately, he was not an only child, so his brothers and sisters could take care of their parents after he died.

"Brother..." Ye Xunbai's voice interrupted Ye Xunqing's thoughts, "Brother, your stuffing hasn't been turned for a long time."

"Oh." Ye Xunqing came back to his senses and immediately began to stir the stuffing in the bowl.

"What's wrong with my brother?" Ye Xunbai was very worried that his brother was sick.

"I'm thinking about the rice." Ye Xunqing made up an excuse. "It's been a drought for so long, I'm afraid the rice yield will be reduced this year."

"Then Xiaobai should eat less." Ye Xunbai said naively.

"There will definitely be enough food. Don't worry about that, Xiaobai." Ye Xunqing smiled gently, "Go and help your brother get the candy from the cabinet."

Ye Xunbai went back to his room to get some candy.

"Brother, I can do more work and earn more money." Mo Yuyan, who had been making a fire, said.

"Money is useless if there's a famine," Ye Xunqing said. "But money is very useful now. Next time you take the money for copying books, we'll buy some more rice and flour before the price goes up."

"Yeah." Mo Yuyan was very happy. He could finally help Ye Xunqing.

"Sister-in-law, the nuts are all fried. Do you think they are good enough?" Liu Xiaojing brought over half a basin of fried nuts.

Ye Xunqing's kitchen conditions were limited, so Liu Xiaojing took the nuts back to the big kitchen to fry them when the old man and the old lady were not at home.

"Okay." Ye Xunqing praised, "Xiao Jing, you're getting better and better."

Liu Xiaojing blushed and said with a silly smile: "Second sister-in-law, no one has ever praised me for being useful. My father only says that I am a money-loser, and my mother says that I am a lazy girl. You are the only one who doesn't despise me for being clumsy."

"No one is born knowing everything. Hard work can make up for lack of talent." Ye Xunqing encouraged her again, "Xiao Jing, you've done a great job. Keep up the good work. I'll pay you at the end of the month."

Liu Xiaojing suddenly became excited, "There's still money?" She didn't dare to expect Ye Xunqing to give her money. After all, Ye Xunqing had taught her a lot of things and even taught her to read and write.

"Of course." Ye Xunqing smiled and said, "You, Xiaoyan, and Xiaobai will all get paid. With the money, go buy some delicious food."

Liu Xiaojing was very happy. "Then I will buy some cloth to make new clothes, make a new pair of shoes for Xiaoan, and buy some delicious food for Xuer."

Ye Xunqing noted her request and said, "Okay, start working first. I'll give you some pocket money as a reward during the Mid-Autumn Festival in two days."

Where there is a big reward, there will always be brave men. If there is food to eat and money to be made, there will naturally be people who will work hard for you.

Moreover, Ye Xunqing likes the little girl Liu Xiaojing very much. Although she is young and impulsive, she is not a bad person. She just needs guidance.

After receiving the praise, Liu Xiaojing worked even harder. She did the work of two people alone and didn't feel tired all day. Finally, Ye Xunqing pulled her to sit down and rest for a while, and she finally rested.

"Is it delicious?" Liu Xiaojing took a lotus seed mooncake and gave it to his son. This kind of mooncake is very soft and Xiaoxuer can bite it.

"Ah...ah..." Xiao Xuer likes it very much.

Ye Xunqing said: "Xiao Xu'er seems to have gained a little weight recently."

Liu Xiaojing said, "Yes, after returning from Third Granny's last visit, Xu'er seemed like a completely different child. Not only did he eat more, he even showed signs of wanting to stand up and walk."

Ye Xunqing's mind raced, and he suddenly came up with a good idea.

"Let him go and see if he can leave." Ye Xunqing said.

Xiao Xuer is already over one year old. Normally, a child over one year old can stand up.

Liu Xiaojing handed his mooncake to Ye Xunqing and said, "Xu'er, the mooncake is with uncle, go ask him for it."

Xiao Xuer seemed to understand. He tried several times and finally left his mother's arms and went to Ye Xunqing.

Liu Xiaojing was very excited and was about to say a few words of praise when Ye Xunqing signaled her not to speak.

Xiao Xuer took two more steps to that side, but his legs were not strong enough and he still fell down.

Ye Xunqing was quick to act and immediately hugged Xiao Xuer, saying gently, "Xiao Xuer is awesome. I'll give you a small mooncake as a reward."

Xiao Xuer held the mooncake and ate it again.

Liu Xiaojing rubbed his eyes with relief. "Xu'er can finally walk. I wonder who dares to laugh at him in the future."

"You need to encourage Xiaoxuer to stand up more in the future, but don't rush it." Ye Xunqing pinched Xiaoxuer's legs. "He's a little thin. He needs to eat more meat."

"Yeah, I feed him egg and meat paste every day." Liu Xiaojing had no conditions to feed his son these things. The eggs and meat were given by Ye Xunqing.

Liu Xiaojing saw it all and took it to heart. What were their family conditions like? Eating meat and eggs every day wasn't something even the village chief could afford.

"Damn it, they are just a bunch of beasts!" Feng Datong and his friends came back from the meeting. Before they even entered the door, Feng Datong started cursing.

Ye Xunqing immediately covered Xiao Xu'er's ears. The child was still young and couldn't listen to dirty words. Besides, the little guy was already learning to speak like an adult, and he didn't want Xiao Xu'er to say "fuck it" as the first word.

When Feng Datong saw Ye Xunqing and Liu Xiaojing sitting together, he became even angrier, but he couldn't argue with Ye Xunqing, so he could only hold his anger and go back into the house.

Feng Jingheng and his brother followed in, both of them looking unhappy.

Ye Xunqing handed the child to Liu Xiaojing and said, "Take Xiaoxuer to drink some water. Make sure to drink boiled water."

Seeing that they had something to say, Liu Xiaojing left first, "Okay, I understand. We don't drink raw water anymore."

Feng Jing'an and Feng Jinghua went back to their rooms, leaving only Ye Xunqing and Feng Jingheng talking by the wall.

"What do you mean?" Ye Xunqing asked him, "Do those bandits still want money from you?"

Feng Jingheng nodded, "Yes, the price has increased."

"They are indeed a group of bandits." Ye Xunqing wanted to call the police.

If it were modern times, those idiots would have been invited to the police station for tea if they had acted like this.

"It all depends on whether it rains this month," Feng Jingheng sighed. "But even if it rains, the grain production will decrease."

Man-made disasters can be avoided, but natural disasters are formidable. If it doesn't rain, it will be a fatal blow to agricultural civilization.
