Sibao's quilt was wiped clean, and the smile on his face deepened again.

Aunt Yu was cooking in the kitchen next door, and the firewood stove was somewhat smoky and choking.

Rice was simmering in the pot on the stove, Aunt Yu was squatting in front of the stove adding firewood, and there was noise from the yard.

Yu Qin, an old man from the Yu family who was working outside, came back. The little old man was stooped, dark-skinned, with a hoe on his shoulder, and a sweat-wiping cloth hanging around his neck, and his head was sweating profusely.

Throwing the hoe to the corner of the wall, Yu Qin casually grabbed the sweatcloth and wiped it on his face, then entered the main room cursing.

Standing on the spot and taking a few glances at the large empty water tank, Yu Qin glared sideways at Aunt Yu who was cooking next door, with a look of anger, his thick black eyebrows twisted into dimples.

"You old woman, where's the cold water at home, don't you know how to prepare more?"

Mrs. Yu, who was cooking, seemed to be used to being scolded by him. She stooped submissively and picked up the freshly boiled kettle from the small stove on the side, and went to the main room to fill the water tank.

Seeing that the surface of the water tank was still steaming, Old Man Yu became impatient again. He kicked Aunt Yu's kettle away and scolded impatiently: "It's so hot, how can I drink it?"

"It's really sad. I've been working hard all day long, and now I can't even drink cold water when I get home. Tell me about you."

Blowing his beard and staring at Aunt Yu, Old Man Yu sat on a chair, pointing at what was said and what said.

Aunt Yu waited for him to complain and stare enough, then she sighed softly, scooped a bowl of water from the water tank and put it on the table to dry.

After finishing these, I turned around and went back to the kitchen to continue cooking.

Old man Yu was a little more satisfied now, relieved his temper, and sat down on the chair like a dead body to rest.

The eldest son of Yu, Yu Dabao, came back a little later than his father, and it was almost dark when he came back, with two loads of grass on his shoulders and a basket on his head, he was panting from exhaustion, and his coarse clothes were soaked in sweat.

Aunt Yu, who was cooking the food, saw it and hurried out of the house to take the basket over his head for him and help him unload the pole.

"You're tired, hurry up and pack up and go into the house to prepare for dinner."

"It's okay, mother, I'm going to wash my hands."

After speaking, Yu Dabao filled a basin of water from the well in the yard, wiped his face, and washed his hands carefully.

The old man from the Yu family, who was resting in the main room, was already sitting at the dining table waiting to eat, no matter whether everyone was there or not.

When it was time to eat at the table, there were only three of them, so Old Man Yu asked, "Where's the fifth girl?"

"Today she took Four Treasures out to play again, and after I scolded her a few words, she got angry and didn't know where she was going." Aunt Yu paused for a while, thinking about it, she was telling the truth.

Hearing this, the old man of the Yu family looked at Aunt Yu very disapprovingly, and then at the room where Sibao was staying.

"The big and the small ones are not worry-free. The second child will come back later, so leave some food for him and Wuya. You hurry up and feed the fourth child."

The tone was quite impatient, and the chopsticks were pulled in the bowl a few times, and then knocked on the edge of the bowl a few times, signaling to Aunt Yu to eat quickly.

Yu Dabao glanced at his father with some displeasure, and quickly lowered his head to eat honestly.

Aunt Yu didn't respond, she ate a little faster, and finished the rice in the bowl with a few stalks of vegetables.

"There's food left for them in the pot. You two eat up the food on the table. I'll clean it up later."

After speaking, he went back to the kitchen to make food for Sibao.

Sibao is slower than others, and he doesn't know how to use chopsticks. When he was younger, Aunt Yu used a spoon to feed her. Now that she is older, she can use a spoon by herself.

Aunt Yu didn't dare to feed the hard food because she almost choked the four-year-old Sibao because of negligent feeding.

Simply cook some rice porridge for her alone every day.

In fact, drinking rice porridge doesn't really care about being full, Aunt Yu knows it well, but she is very busy all day long, so she has to cook more for every meal.

After arriving at the room with the porridge, Sibao obediently sat on the chair by the table and waited for her.

There was a childlike smile on her small face, which made Aunt Yu feel warm in her heart.

From the face and appearance alone, Sibao is unbelievably beautiful, but unfortunately she can't speak, her movements are much slower than ordinary people, and her reactions are also a bit slower. She just sits blankly all day long.

Except for a snort when he was anxious, he didn't say anything extra.

Fortunately, Sibao can understand what other people say most of the time, but they don't respond too much.

"Sibao, the rice porridge my mother boiled today is a bit hot, you have to cool it down for a while before you can drink it, you know?"

Hearing that it was hot, Sibao blinked hesitantly at the bowl on the table, and slowly pouted towards the bowl.

This movement is very normal in the eyes of others, but in the eyes of Aunt Yu, it is extremely gratifying. This is something she learned after teaching Sibao for a long time.

Seeing that there was no problem with Sibao, Aunt Yu went to the main room to clean up the table.

Yu Dabao worked in the yard, taking the grass picked up during the day to the sheepfold in the backyard to feed the sheep.

Old man Yu was sitting in the room smoking a pipe with a pipe.

Sibao stayed alone in the room, with a lit candle on the table, and the rice porridge in the bowl beside the table was already cold.

Holding the spoon in his left hand, Sibao scooped up the rice porridge and drank it slowly, occasionally glancing at the flickering candle.

But fortunately, I ate it cleanly, and didn't eat it all over my mouth, and didn't spill it on the table.

Looking at the clean table, Sibao felt a little happy and rubbed his full stomach.Thinking that today's rice porridge is really delicious.

The weather has been hot recently, and I have to take a bath at night, so the Yu family man stood in a simple shed built in the yard with a bucket and took a wash.

The daughter's house uses a bathtub to wash in the room.

On weekdays, it was Yu Wuya who finished washing, and Aunt Yu would help Sibao to wash. It was dark tonight and I hadn't seen her come back, so I had to carry hot water to help Sibao wash first.

The bathtub was old, but it was clean and big. Sibao sat in it and his whole body was covered by the water, with his head sticking out.

Aunt Yu was afraid that she would slip into the water, so she had to lift Sibao's shoulder with one arm, and wipe her body with a handkerchief with the other hand.

It may be that the sun has not been seen all year round, and the skin on Sibao's body is as white as snow. Aunt Yu just pulled her like this and pinched her snow-white shoulders to turn red.

When the handkerchief is rubbed on the body, one spot becomes red.

Aunt Yu had no choice but to slow down and lighten her strength.

Yu Wuya, who ran out on the other side, was already on the way home with her second brother Yu Erbao.

Yu Erbao worked as a helper for a big family in the village to carry goods for others, leaving early and returning late.

Yu Wuya was angry and ran to him to complain.

Along the way, Yu Wuya told Yu Erbao everything about her mother scolding her because of Yu Sibao, and said that her thin yellow face was still full of anger and grievance.

When he saw Yu Erbao, his heart ached. He didn't like Yu Sibao who was stupid since he was a child. On the contrary, he was very protective of Yu Wuya who was still young. tone.

When the two returned home, the yard was already pitch black.

The old man of the Yu family had already gone back to his room to rest, and Yu Dabao had to go out to work tomorrow, so he went into the room early to sleep.

Only Aunt Yu's room was still lit.

Seeing this, Yu Erbao couldn't go in, so he had to take Yu Wuya to eat the leftover dinner in the kitchen.

Yu Wuya was very unhappy, thinking that today's tone of appointment could not be released, so she absent-mindedly pawed at the meal.

After eating, the two of them didn't clean up, and just put the bowls and chopsticks on the stove.

"Wu Ya, let's forget it's so late today, go to bed early, and talk about it in the daytime tomorrow, do you think so?"

Yu Erbao was fetching water by the well with a wooden bucket, and said to Yu Wuya who was walking towards the house.

Just as Yu Wuya was about to speak, Aunt Yu came out of the room when she heard the noise.

Glancing at Yu Wuya at the door, Yu Wuya dodged and hid in the room.

Aunt Yu had no choice but to look at Yu Erbao in the yard again: "Second brother, what are you still talking about? It's so late, take a shower and go to sleep."

Seeing Aunt Yu coming out, Yu Erbao hurriedly fell silent. Hearing what she said, he hurriedly carried the water and stood in the shed in the corner to take a bath.

Sibao was already on the bed in the room, seeing Yu Wuya who walked in, she didn't respond, she lay on the quilt and dangled her little feet, holding a small sandbag in her hand, playing with the weak candlelight.

Yu Wuya gave her a disdainful look, and then looked at the sandbag in her hand with disgust.

I secretly slandered in my heart: Cut, isn't it just a broken sandbag, isn't it tired of playing for so many years?

Aunt Yu brought water for Yu Wuya and urged her to take a bath quickly.Yu Wuya, who was still sulking, snorted and went to the tub with her clothes in her arms.

The room is not too small, and the bathtub and the bed are separated by a broken shelf.There are two beds in the room, one is small, Sibao sleeps alone, and the other is bigger, Aunt Yu sleeps with Yu Wuya.

After Yu Wuya came out of the shower and climbed into bed, Aunt Yu blew out the candles and got ready to sleep.

The moonlight shines through the window, so the room is not too dark.

Aunt Yu walked to the window under the moonlight, and before going to bed, she worriedly tucked the quilt for Sibao: "Sibao felt that his stomach was covered with a quilt when he slept at night."

Before Sibao could respond, Yu Wuya on the other side of the bed said, "Mother, it doesn't matter if you don't cover yourself with a quilt in such a hot day."

"Sleep on your sleep, let me find out next time that you took your sister out to be bullied, see if I don't whip you with a cane."

Aunt Yu reprimanded Yu Wuya angrily, but she missed Sibao's slight nod towards her.

The other Yu Wuya, who was scolded, would be very angry now, and it was even more impossible to see it.

The night of chicken flying and dog jumping passed like this, and the next morning, the crowing of chickens woke up those who were going to work.

Aunt Yu started working on the stove when she was young, preparing breakfast for the whole family.

After reconciling the noodles and putting them aside, Aunt Yu pulled a few shallots from the vegetable garden, washed them and chopped them finely.

Except for Yu Sibao who couldn't work and had to stay at home, only the young Yu Wuya was left in the family. Everyone else had to wait until evening to come back.

Pancakes are a very convenient and convenient thing. Mrs. Yu baked more than ten pancakes in one go.

Yu Dabao and Old Man Yu had to work in the fields, so they brought six cakes, and Aunt Yu had to help others in the lotus pond, so she also brought three cakes.There are five left over for Yu Erbao, who is out to work, and Yu Wuya, who has nothing to do.

The Four Treasures have to be done separately.

The old man of the Yu family and Yu Dabao rushed out the door before the sun rose.

Aunt Yu put the boiled rice porridge in a bowl and brought it into the house for Sibao to prepare. Even though the amount for two meals would not make Sibao hungry, she immediately went out with peace of mind.

Before Sibao woke up, Yu Wuya got up from the bed as soon as Aunt Yu went out, tiptoed to the table and brought out Sibao's rice porridge.

Yu Erbao, who was still tidying up in the courtyard and getting ready to go to work, saw her coming out with a bowl, and couldn't help asking, "What are you doing with Yu Sibao's bowl?"

"Second brother!" Yu Wuya walked up to Yu Erbao with a bowl in her hand, and said maliciously, "Let's have a drink, it doesn't matter if she's hungry for a meal or two."

"That's not good, Wuya. Although you won't die of hunger after a meal or two, if mother knows, she will kill you?" Yu Erbao gave her a disapproving look and shook his head.

Yu Wuya was not happy at the moment: "You agreed last night that you would vent your anger on me, so your words don't count?"

As he spoke, he walked into the main room angrily. Yu Erbao had a headache and had no choice but to follow her into the room.

"All right, all right, if you want to drink, drink it quickly."

Upon hearing this, Yu Wuya couldn't wait to start drinking.
