Otherworldly Days

"There is a piece of land next to yours that belongs to your third uncle, and there is a piece of land in your second uncle's house...the rest of the wasteland has never been issued a title deed. You have to go to the Yamen and ask someone to come and measure it before issuing a title deed. That's it." Li Zheng told Cao Xiangnan about the situation of that piece of land, all of which he got from the village chief today.

"The rest of the land is easy to deal with. It's with your third uncle." Lizheng said about this third uncle and sighed.

Li Zheng told Cao Xiangnan about the third uncle.

Third uncle?

Cao Xiangnan searched about the third uncle in his mind, and seemed to have a little impression of this person. There are only a few lonely old people in the village, and his third uncle is also one of them, and his temper is not good.It just so happens that the land is right next to the house he lives in now, so he really wants to buy it soon.

"I'll go to the rest of the houses for you and ask them what they mean." Li Zheng said.

The land over there is where the head of the village used to live, and now everyone's houses have been built to this end of the village, and no one wants the land over there.It's just that the deed was established at that time, and the land deed is with someone else, so it still costs a few dollars to buy it.

"Seventh Grandpa, I'll go with you tomorrow." This was originally his own business, and it's good that others are willing to help, and he can't leave it all to others, Cao Xiangnan said.

Coming back from Lizheng, there are already two little milk dogs in the house, one is snow-colored with a tuft of black hair on its forehead, and its four little feet look like they are wearing black socks; one is pure black with a tuft of white hair on its forehead, and the four The hair on the foot is white, and it looks like it was born not long ago. The two short legs are still wobbly when walking, and it looks cute.

"Hey, is this the puppy brought back by brother Gang?" Cao Xiangnan saw his little Anan squatting there not knowing what to do when he came back. He went over and found two little milk dogs inside. One gets up.

The puppy beeped and flapped its four paws in the air. The one in the nest also barked when it realized that its brother was gone.

Qi Wanfeng was tidying up the yard, turned his head and glanced, and said, "Well, yes, I just sent the person back."

"Father." Xiao Anan looked at his father eagerly, the meaning in those eyes was obvious.

"Oh." Cao Xiangnan stopped teasing his son, put the puppy into An An's hands, and said, "Hold it well, don't fall it."

Xiao Anan nodded, happily hugging the puppy, and had already thrown her dad aside.

"Does this dog know how to eat?" Cao Xiangnan held the other dog in his hand. He couldn't tell what kind of dog it was, but he had an intuition that the one Cao Gang brought for him would not be too bad. He saw I glanced at the bottom of the puppy, with a handle.

I turned over the other one and saw that it was also with a handle.

Don't tell him that dogs in this world are also cubs of males!He even got two male dogs back for him.

Cao Xiangnan wronged the dog. The mother gave birth to the dog, not the father. He said he wanted two puppies. When Cao Gang went to the house, the bitch gave birth to two puppies, both of which were male. He brought them all back.

At that time, the bitch gave Cao Gang a bad look, and Cao Gang said, "Take it home and raise it well, and bring it to see you when you grow up." The cub was carried away.

Lao Liu sent Cao Gang out of the gate, closed the courtyard door, and turned around to pat the big dog's head.

It was also the first time for Qi Wanfeng to raise this kind of thing, and he didn't quite understand it. He repeated to his husband what Cao Gang said when he sent the puppy, "Brother Cao Gang said that we can eat, let's give the two puppies first." Have some rice soup."

So that means you might not be able to eat, so you hugged him?Cao Xiangnan was very speechless when he heard that, but such a cute puppy, let's drink rice soup. He put the puppy back in the nest, then took the one in his son's hand and put it back.

Seeing Xiao An'an looking at him with puffed cheeks, Cao Xiangnan patted his son's head and said, "Puppy can't be hugged and played all the time, it will spoil if you keep playing with it, just pet it, okay?"

An'an sullenly thought about it, hummed, and replied reluctantly, "Okay." But after all, he didn't want to play around, just squatted there and looked at the two puppies, and they were all happy.

Cao Xiangnan also told Qi Wanfeng what he got when he went to Lizheng. Qi Wanfeng lived with him. Everyone in this family should tell Qi Wanfeng, "I will go to the village with Grandpa Seven tomorrow. Let’s take a trip to see what those families mean, and for the rest, we have to go to the people in the yamen to measure and sign the deed.”

The two agreed to buy the land, the hot water in the stove was boiled, and Cao Xiangnan bathed the child after soaking in the water.

Qi Wanfeng cleaned up the yard. At this time, the chicken had already returned to its nest, and he could sit down and rest for a while after a busy day.He sat there looking at the husband who volunteered to bathe the child, and seeing the father and son having fun, he also had a smile in his eyes.

"A chicken has one head and two feet, how many heads and feet do two chickens have?"

"Two heads, four feet."

"How many heads and how many feet do three chickens have?"

"Three heads and six feet."

The father and son were playing the game of counting chicken heads and feet. They had a lot of fun, but if they listened carefully, Xiao An'an could count this number. Another way to teach.Originally taught addition and subtraction, now he is teaching children simple multiplication and division.

The stars twinkle at night, and the small village is quiet.

In the small yard, the hen and chicks in the nest fell asleep, and the two rabbits also huddled in the corner to sleep. The two little milk dogs in the nest groaned from time to time. I don’t know what they called in their dreams. Woke up in the night, raised his head and whimpered twice, and slept with his brother again.

Before dawn the next day, everyone gathered at their place and started to get busy.

The first batch of rice noodles that had been made early, went to Fenshui Town with the people who went to the town to set up a stall. Today, Cao Xiangnan stayed at home and did not go to the stall. Qi Wanfeng and Sun Bailian also stayed together. Sun Bailian stayed at home to help look after the children, and Qi Wanfeng wanted to stay and help with the work.

The genius was gray, and the road could only be vaguely seen. Chen Hong brought the two elder brothers from the village, each of whom he picked two loads of vegetables.Cao Xiangnan weighed them with a scale, and paid the money to the two brothers on the spot.

The two brothers took the money and smiled happily. They went to the field early in the morning to pick the vegetables and sent them over. In the past, they had to pick and sell them in the village, and they might not be able to sell them for this money. .

Cao Xiangnan asked Wanfeng from his family to pack two catties of river noodles for them. The two pushed back and forth, but the other party still took it. He told the other party how to cook it, "Take it back and cook it for the children at home, hot water You can eat it just by rolling it. There are sauces here, and you can mix it with the sauce without cooking."

"You're so polite, so I'll just take it and thank Cao Silang." The older brother is Chen Hong's second uncle, Li Mei, who used to be with Chen Hong's family Selling vegetables in the village, the relationship between the two families is very good, and they will help each other with everything.

The other one is Wu Yue, a brother from another village married to Caojia Village, who has a good relationship with Chen Hong.

Cao Xiangnan asked him to ask who had food. When something good happened, Chen Hong first thought of his own people, so he brought Wu Yue along.

The mouths of both of them are tight, and if they have money and delicious food, they will not foolishly give such good things to others. "Thank you." Chen Hong also took a share of pho, and the two are getting closer now, so he was not polite to Cao Silang.

On the way back, the brothers were discussing how to grow more vegetables in the field. They learned from Chen Hong that Cao Jiashiro would ask for more vegetables in the future, and the thought of more vegetables would sell more They can’t wait to plant all the land at home. They went back talking and laughing, and when they met acquaintances in the village, they asked them, “Why are you so happy?” “No, nothing."

Glancing at the people they met, the three of them walked for a while, talking and laughing again.

A few of them walked back happily with an empty load, saying that it was no wonder that there was nothing wrong with it, the load was stained with dirt, and it must have filled things when they saw it.When thoughtful people think about it, they feel that something is wrong here.

There are several shops in the village that set up stalls to buy vegetables early in the morning, but I haven't seen them coming recently.Several people who sell vegetables together set up their stalls close to each other, chatting about this matter while selling, someone mentioned that they saw Chen Hong and the others talking and laughing with empty loads this morning, and I don’t know where they went and came back .

Haven't seen Chen Hong and his second uncle recently, and Wu Yue, who has a good relationship with him, came to sell vegetables.They all grow vegetables, and the vegetable fields are close to each other. When they passed by in the morning, they saw that the vegetables in several of their vegetable fields were gone. These people were talking about where the vegetables in their vegetable fields went. coming.

"Where did you say the vegetables in their fields went?" Someone asked.

There was only one family living on that road. Everyone in the village knew that Cao Silang was driven out by the Cao Family Courtyard. If Cao Silang hadn't been mentioned, they wouldn't have known whether he was alive or dead, so Naturally, no one would think about it.

"There must be something wrong with them." Someone insisted, and it must be a good thing.

"That's right, there must be something wrong, find a time to ask them." If there is a good thing, don't call them, it's too uninteresting, it's good, everyone wants it, and don't think about it. The relationship between them is not very good, just When something good happens, I won’t be the first one to think of you. The first thing I think of is my own people.

Everyone grows vegetables to sell, and when they sold out the vegetables in the morning, they deliberately passed by Li Mei's house. When they saw Li Mei at the door of Li Mei's house, they asked at the door, "Ah Mei, why haven't you seen me recently?" Are you going to sell vegetables?"

"There are a lot of things going on at home lately." Li Mei is not a fool, she just found an excuse and prevaricated, but others naturally didn't believe it.

Today he brought back delicious food, and specifically asked the boys at home not to talk nonsense.People in the family also knew about the collection of vegetables by Cao Jiashiro, thinking that Cao Jiashiro had collected all the vegetables in that vegetable field, which was a jingling copper coin.

Seeing someone walk by, Li Mei took a bite, which is not a good thing.
