In the book, the female supporting role dreams of being an idle fish

I just steal half a lifetime of leisure.

Not long after, Jiang Wen came back.

Went straight into the kitchen.

The thing that Gu Lixia is most satisfied with about Jiang Wen is that he can do everything at home.

As long as he can.

You never have to be told what to do.

If you take the initiative, you will find things to do.

Like now, Gu Lixia was sitting at the gate.

He didn't shout, "Lixia, go cook."

Instead, he went to the kitchen to cook porridge, and then went to fetch water with a shoulder pole and bucket.

Fetch water and continue watering the fields.

There hasn't been much rain this year.

There was heavy rain for two months from June to August.

Gu Lixia couldn't sit still either, so she steamed the eggplant and mixed it with salt, vinegar and garlic.

It's just a dish.

Not long after, Jiang Xiu and the others came back.

"Second Aunt, I can speak now. I'll be able to speak in the afternoon." Jiang Huaixi was the happiest person.

Gu Lixia just remembered that she forgot to stew the apples in the morning.

Gu Lixia picked up Jiang Huaixi, and Jiang Huaixi opened his mouth wide.

Sure enough, the redness and swelling had already subsided.

Although I didn't take much medicine.

But, two days of apples.

porridge.

Less salt and oil.

That’s right, children shouldn’t take too many medicines.

After observing his throat, Gu Lixia replied to Jiang Huaixi. "It's recovering well. Let's go to the village tomorrow to see if we can have some meat. It doesn't matter what kind of meat, fish, chicken, anything will do."

Listening to her sister-in-law's words, Jiang Xiu felt she had a solution. "Let's not go over to the house tomorrow. We might as well go around the village entrance and up the mountain. Although I haven't personally kowtowed at the grave, I know where it is. I used to pick bitter herbs there when I was a kid."

"But my father found out later. He said that children, with incomplete souls, couldn't go. So I never went back. Isn't there a stream at the entrance to the village?"

"Go further into the mountains. There's a pond. It's very deep when there's a lot of water. There are fish in it, but the fish in the pond are very clever. When there's a lot of water, it's impossible for us to catch them."

"Only during the dog days of summer, when the water level drops, will the villagers organize a group to fish it out. On weekdays, some people also go secretly to fish it out and eat it at home. But few people succeed in fishing it out."

Gu Lixia was thinking about how to get the fish out?

Isn’t this like giving away a pillow when you’re sleepy?

Gu Lixia had a new plan in mind. "Xiu'er, how good are you at riding a bicycle?"

"I learned it. After we bought the bicycle, I was the only one who learned to ride it. After learning for about half a month, I could ride around the family compound by myself. What's the matter? Sister-in-law, aren't you going back tomorrow?" Jiang Xiu was a little confused.

Gu Lixia shook her index finger. "No, everyone, go back. Ask your brother to borrow another bicycle later or tomorrow morning. Tomorrow, we'll each take care of one child. Let's exchange for more apples tomorrow. The children from the compound will definitely come to our house tomorrow to exchange for apples."

"Let's try to exchange as many as possible. The apple season will be over soon. You can put the apples you bring back in your room (cellar). I also want to buy two chickens. Huaixi has lost a lot of weight and needs to be nourished."

"And we have to trade for eggs. So, take four backpacks and three bikes tomorrow. Leave early tomorrow morning. Be quiet. You can ride our bikes; they're safe from falling."

"It's better to talk about this bicycle in advance. Who knows who will need it tomorrow? I'll go out and ask. I'll ask Aunt Cui first. Then I'll ask every family." Jiang Xiu said and left.

But just as he walked out the door, Jiang Wen called him. "Where are you going?"

"Borrow the car. I'll go to Aunt Cui's house to ask first." Jiang Xiu stopped and replied to her brother.

Jiang Wen refused as he carried water into the yard. "No, I've already borrowed it. I borrowed Uncle Yan's bicycle while I was fetching water. Goudan's father said his family won't need the bicycle tomorrow, so if I want to use it, I can just go to his house and have it pushed. Come back and have dinner."

Since it has already been borrowed, Jiang Xiu doesn't need to borrow again.

The family is drinking porridge at the table.

After drinking, Jiang Xiu cleaned up.

Jiang Wenguan closed the door, gave Jiang Huaixi a bath, and then carried him back to the room of the three brothers.

Jiang Wen also rushed forward perfunctorily.

After returning to the house, Gu Lixia, who had been waiting for him, took him into the space.

Jiang Huainan and Jiang Huaibei have recently taken to taking a bath together.

Jiang Xiu was the last one to clean up the mess.

The couple discussed what to bring home tomorrow.

The fish in the lotus pond can be caught with just one scoop. It’s that easy.

There are two baskets of apples, and I can take about 70 apples.

The fruit is bright red and clean, and nearly 90% of the apples are around 90mm in diameter. This tree has produced over 300 fruits.

When Gu Lixia picked apples, she picked them from one branch at a time.

So this apple tree looks like it is full of fruits all year round.

The two of them picked 70 together.

I will take some of it back to eat and some of it will be exchanged with the children in the staff quarters.

The pears on the pear tree can also be picked.

The pears were a little smaller, so two people picked 80 together.

Go back to canning.

Qiutao 50 also makes canned food.

Just pick a few persimmons.

Give the kids a taste.

Make these preparations well.

Gu Lixia went into the kitchen, cut ham, fried eggs, and fried chicken fillets.

Cook rice noodles.

Gu Lixia’s favorite.

Jiang Wenzhe steamed dumplings and ate them.

After eating, I want to sleep.

I was really sleepy. I read that newspaper during work during the day and it didn’t make me feel free at all.

The problem is that everyone else has work to do, but I have nothing to do.

Gu Lixia had no choice but to copy notes into her notebook.

show attitude.

I love going to work.

Anyway, Gu Lixia had only been working for two months, and her reputation for loving to study had already spread.

At the beginning, everyone wanted to see the top students in the school.

After going to work, I began to formally explain the ideological education guidelines to the workers.

Gu Lixia received rave reviews in the factory.

Be patient and understand everything that is said.

This is the most direct and simple way to praise.

Gu Lixia ignored Jiang Wen and went straight upstairs to her bedroom.

Take a bath.

Gu Lixia felt uncomfortable in her waist and hips.

I want a massage.

I went up to the sixth floor and enjoyed a half-hour massage.

Then I came down, lay down in the quilt, closed my eyes and went to sleep.

Jiang Wen: I wonder if I have to get up early tomorrow or go upstairs to continue reading.

I have started reading storybooks about history. The stories interspersed in them are very interesting and witty.

Jiang Wen lingered there.

Fortunately, I knew what to do the next day. After watching for an hour, I immediately went downstairs to wash up and go to bed.

Gu Lixia was the first to wake up.

Wash yourself well.

I went downstairs and heated up the steamed buns.

Scooped out some kimchi.

Cut the braised beef.

Quickly let the system call Jiang Wen to wake up.

Gu Lixia also went upstairs to change into clothes for going out.

When I came down, Jiang Wen just came out.

So we went to the dining table together.
