Most of the Wei family were dispatched, leaving only He Xiaoyun and Feng Qiuyue at home to cook, feed the pigs and watch the children.
Yesterday, Wei Jianwei dug a few spring bamboo shoots from the bamboo forest behind. The bamboo shoots of this season are sweet, crisp, and tender. Whether they are stewed or cooked, they are very good for dinner.
The two were peeling bamboo shoots in the yard. Wei Yuanhang squatted to play next to them. Suddenly, there was a cry of the little baby waking up from the room. Feng Qiuyue coaxed loudly while washing her hands and hurried back to the room.
After a while, she came out with her baby in her arms. Although the baby stopped crying, there were still tears on her eyelashes, and her cheeks were a little bit red.
He Xiaoyun smiled and said, "She looked pretty good, and she can fiercely cry."
"It's not bad," Feng Qiuyue said. "She's hungry right now. When she's hungry, she cries so fiercely. It sounds like a debt collection. Your first brother-in-law said she's small but can cry like a cannon in a battle."
"Big brother is quite good at joking." He Xiaoyun said happily.
After lunch was finished, He Xiaoyun offered to go to the field. Several people from Wei Zhenxing came up from the field and sat in the shade of the trees to eat. Wei Jianwei hadn't finished planting a row of seedlings and fell behind.
"Is there something to eat at home?" Wang Chunhua asked her.
He Xiaoyun said, "There is, all three chickens in the family lay eggs, and one of them was found by Xiaoyuan in the backyard pyre, which made him happy."
Wang Chunhua smiled and said, "It's his credit, he should eat the egg."
"Then he's going to lift his tail up to the sky(become arrogant)." He Xiaoyun shook her head and said with a smile.
As she was talking, Wei Jianwei washed his hands in the ditch and walked over.
He Xiaoyun handed him the bowl and chopsticks, watching the sweat on his forehead roll down, she asked, "Is it very hot?"
"It's okay, did you eat yet?"
"I ate at home."
The other people finished eating first, then went to rest under another bigger tree, and chatted with others by the way. Only two of them were left here.
"Would you like me to cook some mung bean soup in the afternoon?" He Xiaoyun asked him.
"Does it look good?" Wei Jianwei asked.
He Xiaoyun calmly rolled her eyes and said, "It's okay." (really?)
"It's okay?" Wei Jianwei put these two words in his mouth, and then nodded sternly, "It seems that I have to keep working hard to get a good grade, right?"
"It's fine if you know it." He Xiaoyun had a hard duck mouth(stubborn) and changed the subject again, "Hurry up and eat, I have to go back to wash the dishes."

In the evening, the Wei family members returned from the fields one after another. Once they got home, Wei Yuanhang happily invited them to boast about his credit, "Grandma, I found an egg today!"
"Really?" Wang Chunhua pretended to be surprised, "Xiaoyuan is really good."
Wei Yuanhang nodded again, "Really! I have to keep looking for it tomorrow."
"Okay, If you found it, let your mother cook it for you."
"Great!" The child cheered.
He Xiaoyun touched his head and said, "Grandpa and grandma are very tired. Don't pester them. Go and play with your little sister."
The children were taken away, and several people took advantage of the daylight to wash and rinse, and when they finished eating, it was completely dark.
In the room, He Xiaoyun sat under a kerosene lamp sewing clothes. Two days ago, Wei Jianwei put on the coat she made to the mountain and was hooked by a tree branch. The hole was only discovered when he was about to put it away today.
Wei Yuanhang took a paper airplane and ran around while humming. When he ran to the door, Wei Jianwei just walked in, and he slammed into him.
"Dad!"
Wei Jianwei responded and picked him up. The child twisted in his arms, a little embarrassed, "I'm an older child, so I don't need you to hold me anymore."
After folding the plane, Wei Jianwei tried to fly it up before handing it over to the child.
Wei Yuanhang immediately shouted with his voice: "Uncle, look at my new plane, it can fly really high!"
Wei Jianhua replied: "It's very good, shall we go to sleep?"
"But I don't want to sleep yet."
He Xiaoyun said: "Otherwise, let the child sleep here tonight, Jianhua, you have to get up early tomorrow, don't let him disturb you."
"Uh..." In fact, it's not noisy or anything now. Jianhua has gotten used to it these days. When the lights are turned off at night, even though his little nephew keeps muttering, he can filter it out and sleep peacefully now.
However, it would be better if he could sleep alone. Wei Jianhua opened his mouth and was about to respond. He suddenly received the glance of his second brother and immediately changed his words: "No, I don't think it's noisy."
After that, Jianhua went to coax his nephew, "Xiaoyuan, let's go to my room, my room is a bit bigger, we can fly your plane there."

Although she doesn't need to plant, He Xiaoyun and Feng Qiuyue are doing all the work at home. They are a lot more tired than usual. He Xiaoyun comfortably breathed a sigh of relief when she lay down on the bed.
Perceiving the movement of the person next to her under the quilt, she held him down, "Aren't you tired after a busy day?"
Wei Jianwei pulled out his hand, held her hand instead, put it to his mouth, and nibbled it lightly, saying, "I need to keep working hard, how can I be tired?" (guhhhh)
He Xiaoyun didn’t understand what he meant for a while until after a long time, she was lying on the bed out of breath, and heard Wei Jianwei asking her in her ears: "How was my performance?"
"..."
He Xiaoyun then remembered what she said at noon.
If it weren't for being so tired that she didn't even want to move a finger, she really wanted to roll her eyes at this vengeful man!
