Chapter 4: 3.1

Chapter 3: Troublesome, Lazybones (1) Original translation is from tenderflower's blog.

The winter snow melted and the spring breeze blew in the willows. In the blink of an eye, the apricot trees in the yard bloomed again.

“Ah Lan, Ah Lan, where are you?”

After she finished her lunch, Shu Wan opened the curtain and took a look inside the room. She discovered that her younger sister who was supposed to be sleeping on the heated-brick bed was missing. She hurriedly searched all the places where someone could sleep in the eastern room and western room.

Her younger sister had been quiet and sensible since childhood. She didn’t like crying and fussing like other children, but she had one disadvantage. She was very lazy. She always slept all day long. She said something and she didn’t listen then beat it, right? With a pair of big watery eyes like black grapes, and a small, plump, pink, face, even her strict education mother was reluctant to hit. Needless to say her gentle and smiling father. As a result, her younger sister became lazier. She was so lazy she could sleep anywhere.

Shu Wan was very anxious because she couldn’t find her younger sister. Seeing that the sun was about to hit the middle, her father, mother, younger brother, and Uncle Xiao’s family were all busy planting peanuts in the field and just waiting for her to deliver food!

She wasn’t in the house. Did she run out to play?

Although Shu Wan thought it was impossible for her lazy younger sister to take the initiative to go out to play, she went to take a look in the yard. Just this look, she was immediately dumbfounded.

The family’s yard was enclosed by a fence. There were two apricot trees planted on the west side. Both of them have thick bowls and were full of white apricot blossoms in pink. But in the middle of the two apricot trees, no one knew when there was a small wicker basket. The woven basket was four feet long and one foot wide. It was usually placed on a cart, one on each side was just perfect. But now the small basket wasn’t filled with medicinal materials that her father picked from the mountain. Instead, there was a small child lying on it. The warm sunshine shone on her through the flowers like a dream.

Regarding her younger sister’s “new bed,” Shu Wan couldn’t laugh or cry. She would still tease her younger sister when she changed her routine, but time was tight today. She didn’t have any interest. Walking quickly under the apricot tree, Shu Wan reached out her hand to take the veil covering her younger sister’s face, and directly hugged the person out, “Ah Lan, wake up. We’re going to deliver food to daddy and them!”

She couldn’t wake up someone just by shouting. The experienced Shu Wan wiped her younger sister’s face with a damp handkerchief and washed away the saliva from the corners of her mouth. At this time, Shu Lan finally opened her eyes.

“Older sister, time to eat?”

“You ah you. Besides sleeping you only know how to eat. You forgot today we plant peanuts. Let’s go and deliver food to daddy and eat in the field.” Shu Wan pulled her younger sister’s wrinkled trousers and locked the door. Holding her sleepy younger sister in one hand, held the food basket in the other hand, and walked quickly towards the south.

“Ah Wan is going to deliver food?” The villagers greeted Shu Wan with a smile.

Shu Wan smiled sweetly, calling this Uncle Li and calling that Aunt Zhang, but she never paused along the way.

“Look at Ah Wan, who is as big as you. She can cook and coax her younger sister. You can’t do anything. You don’t feel shame letting me wash your clothes!” Some daughters-in-law used Ah Wan as an example to teach their children. The reprimanded girl pouted her lips, turned her head, and ran away.

This kind of thing was very common in the village. Shu Wan remembered her mother praising the younger brother of the Xiao family for being smart and sensible and used to teach the naughty Shu Zhan a lesson. As for the younger sister, her mother didn’t bother to say it. What did you say? You said until the ceiling was rotten and fell apart, she fell asleep as soon as her neck shrank...

After about a quarter of an hour, the two of them finally reached their peanut field.

“Come eat, father, mother, uncle Xiao, and second aunt!”

With Shu Wan’s shout, the busy people in the field put down their work and gathered around together.

Shu Wan spread a piece of blue coarse cloth on the ground, took out two big bowl feasts (Poon Choi), put the rice, waited for everyone to gather, and then passed the bowls and chopsticks to everyone.

(T/N: Poon Choi Aka. Pen Cai (盆菜) is an Auspicious one-pot dish served in a very big pot (traditionally served in wooden and metal basin) If you wanna see click here.)
