Spring plowing is still going on, with Li Feng and Yu Mu, two strong laborers, the land of the three families will be tidied up soon, and the seeds that have been treated by Tang Chunming's family will also go down. As long as the weather is favorable and the harvest is good is not a problem.
Tang Chunrong rushed to Pingshan Village as soon as the work in the field was finished. Unexpectedly, his brother's land had been planted, and there was no room for him to intervene. Before the busy season, Tang Chunming asked people in the village to give a message to his school, asking him to do his homework first, and then come to see him when he was free. Tang Chunrong also knew that it was very hard for his mother to work all by herself. , so I hurriedly finished the field work with my mother, hoping to help my brother again.
"Okay, aren't you happy that someone is helping your brother? You should rest assured. Now that you're here, take a good rest. Brother will make you a delicious tonic. I see that you are much thinner than when you came last time. "Tang Chunming felt sorry for his younger brother, but a boy who was only eleven years old had to take care of a family, so the pressure was not small, and he liked to put everything on his shoulders.
"Brother, it's okay, just busy for a while, I'm going to school the day after tomorrow, and the flesh on my body will grow back slowly." Tang Chunrong smiled shyly, then picked up the little nephew on the side, teasing He: "Does Ah Lin miss my uncle? Did you take good care of my mother?" Big Mao and Er Mao also took the opportunity to pester him to ask about his homework. Tang Chunming walked away with a smile, ready to make a delicious meal for his younger brother, and went out to ask Uncle Zhao Liu to go to the town Then bring back a few catties of meat.
After staying for two days, Tang Chunrong reluctantly bid farewell to his elder brother and little nephew, and brought vegetables grown in the backyard of his elder brother's house for his mother to try. Have a good day.

After the spring plowing, there was a continuous spring rain, and the whole Pingshan Village and the surrounding mountains were shrouded in dense mist, which looked very unreal.
It is said that spring rain is as expensive as oil. Most of the villagers were happy when the rain came in time, with smiles on their faces. After that, the land at home was cleaned up and the seeds were planted. This was only done when the third uncle couldn't see it and called a few men from the Zhao family to help.
Zhang Xiu and Wang Mo were sewing spring clothes at Tang Chunming's house. They told Tang Chunming that the good man asked third uncle to do it, but the rest of the Zhao family felt uncomfortable. Why
"Mother Zhao should be called Mr. Zhao. He worked so hard to help his family farm, but he didn't even eat meat. Just look at it. Next time, Third Uncle can still call those people strange. I am also reluctant to let my Dashan go to work as a white worker, and it has not ended well." Zhang Xiu despised, especially some people in the village compared Mrs. Zhao with Tang Chunming. But what kind of meals are they preparing? The men are keeping the meat, just to eat meat. There are many men in the village who want to come to help.
Tang Chunming, who had been holding back his anger for a few days because of the words of the third uncle of the Zhao family, wanted to let go. Why bother to find anger with such an irrelevant person? He even thought that he should get along with his stepmother. It's better for this child to have his surname Tang, he doesn't even want the child's surname Zhao, so that in the future this surname Zhao will keep talking about the child.
"I don't like this kind of family either. It's good for Brother Ming to separate from them. See how relaxed Brother Ming is now, and he looks good." Wang Mo looked at Brother Ming's face and said, it's like this now She looks good, she must have looked better when she first married into the Zhao family, what a blessing Zhao Dahu was, but he couldn't keep it well, it was because he was not blessed.
"I see, Wang Chunhua probably troubled Brother Ming just because he couldn't see it," Zhang Xiu laughed, but Tang Chunming's face was full of black lines. It's really depressing for a big man to be praised for his good looks. , Ignoring these two guys, Zhang Xiu continued, "If you want me to say, Brother Ming, just find someone to remarry, and even change the surname of the child. In the future, if the Zhao family wants to find trouble again, you don't need to come out on your own." It’s gone.” That day in the field really frightened him, the other men also wanted to help, but they were worried about being gossiped, and they didn’t have any position to stand up for. At that time, there was nothing wrong with Wang Chunhua, and dirty water was poured over. up.
Tang Chunming rolled his eyes: "Is there really such a good man around here who is willing to treat other people's children as his own children? It is said that if there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather. It is the same reason to have a stepfather." , he can't do it himself, how can he ask others to be so magnanimous? Everyone has selfishness. So no matter how much he drools over someone's figure, he doesn't think about it because of A Lin. It won't be too late when the two children grow up and become more sensible and able to stand on their own. It's the right time for a good time.
"How do you know that no one is willing to treat children sincerely? We Alin are sensible and make people feel distressed." Zhang Xiu glanced back, but remembered what he said to Fulang Shen, the situation in the field that day, He can clearly see Li Feng's performance, and Shen Fulang is also aware of it, especially, Li Feng is really kind to A Lin, and A Lin also likes him. If the two are really interested, this marriage could not be better , he can rest assured.
Before, he didn't think in this direction at all. How could he have imagined that Boy Feng would reject the unmarried brother and take a fancy to the child-bearing brother Ming? Mrs. Shen was also very surprised, and even wondered if he should find an opportunity to find out what the boy Tanfeng said. If this marriage can really work out, Brother Ming will have someone to rely on in the future, and the relationship with the Zhao family will be even further away.
Zhang Xiu was thinking secretly here, Shen Fulang also talked about this with Lizheng at home, Lizheng's eyes widened when he heard this, the pipe almost slipped from his hand, and said: "This can't be, how could Feng boy?" You fell in love with Brother Ming? Brother Ming has brought two children." Boy Feng was only delayed for a few years, but no matter what, he is still an unmarried man, and he has the strength to live his life without worry. Well, although Brother Ming is literate and good-looking, he can still support himself now, but in the eyes of rural people, if he is married and has children, the market will naturally be bad.
Shen Fulang stared at him: "What's wrong, what's wrong with Brother Ming? Why can't you be worthy of Boy Feng? Besides, you are not Boy Feng, how do you know what he thinks in his heart, maybe he just took a fancy to Ming Brother, didn't you see the way he was nervous that day?" Mrs. Shen felt more and more, the face of Boy Feng was cold, and he looked like this to other people in the village, but only He is very patient with the little brother Alin. Brother Ming was originally an outstanding brother, but he has been tortured by the Zhao family in the past few years. Now that he is away from the Zhao family, life is easier, and he is also a good-looking person.
Mrs. Shen was a little worried. It's not that there are no sneaky people in the village. Seeing that my brother is good-looking and there is no man in the family, and he lives far away, if some men move their minds and grope in the past, Mrs. Shen will Think more and more worried.
He knew that his own man was leaning toward Boy Feng, the Li family, but Mrs. Shen just felt that Brother Ming's temperament caught his eye now, no matter how he looked at him, he felt comfortable. If it wasn't because he was dragged down by his children, he still thought that Boy Feng was not good enough for him. .
People's hearts are biased, and Li Zheng was choked for a moment. He felt that he couldn't make any sense with his husband, so he simply lowered his head and smoked a dull cigarette, and let his husband make troubles. No matter what, he would never fall in love with the brother who brought the children left by the two former men.
Shen Fulang also turned around and went to busy with his own affairs, thinking in his heart, he couldn't really run up to Boy Feng and ask him if he likes Brother Ming, maybe he can find out from Yu Mu, a big man order something.

Tang Chunming didn't know that there were two enthusiastic people who were concerned about his life-long affairs and wanted to find a man for him. Now he was looking at the vegetables in the backyard and was so happy that he even hummed a song. It's money, money, he can start earning money again, and earning money is the most enjoyable thing.
Xiao Hua grew up a lot after eating and drinking, wandering around A Lin's legs. What happened during the meal delivery that day affected Alin after all, and he became more and more attached to his mother, and liked to follow her around.
Tang Chunming fed the ewes with water and grass, and Alin fed the lambs nearby. Tang Chunming cleaned the sheep pens and cleaned up the sheep manure, and Alin led the ewes for a walk in the yard, with the two lambs automatically following behind. As soon as the rain stopped, the ground was still wet, Tang Chunming told Ah Lin not to run far.
Da Mao and Er Mao went to the back mountain with their mother to dig wild vegetables and mushrooms. Tang Chunming really wanted to go, but Zhang Xiu firmly disagreed. Although Tang Chunming knew what happened before, Zhang Xiu was really afraid that he would be wrong. Or if he fell and touched his stomach, the fake show would come true. Knowing that Tang Chunming likes to eat wild vegetables and mushrooms, Zhang Xiu promised to keep the ones that Da Mao Er Mao dug for him.
Sadly confined in his own yard, Tang Chunming had to look up at the scenery of the back mountain to enjoy himself. It is really not free to carry a burden on his body. How he wished that he could go around the mountain and make a few tricks, maybe he could do it. Get a few rabbits... Hey, no, if he can't go, he can teach Dashan how to make a trap, and then he can share one of the two rabbits, haha, he is so smart, I can't wait to put Zhang Xiu called back.
How to dig traps and make traps is still learned from my father. In my previous life, when the rabbits were getting fat in autumn, both father and son couldn’t finish eating the rabbits they caught. Except for giving them away, they made them into wind rabbits and they could eat them until the New Year. When he went to university, his father was not as healthy as before in the city, and the chances of eating wild animals became less and less, until he returned to his hometown later, but after all, the days when he and his father were dependent on each other were not happy.
After cleaning the sheepfold and taking the sheep back, Tang Chunming wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeves, while Alin tugged at the hem of Grandma's clothes underneath, and said in a childish voice, "Grandma, grandma, Ah Lin helps grandma wipe the sweat." sweat."
"Okay, Alin is the most filial." None of his sons are so cute and caring. Tang Chunming squatted down with his stomach in his hands, but no matter how difficult it was, no son's behavior made people happy. Alin lifted his toes and took out The handkerchief carefully wiped off the sweat from Aunt's forehead and nose.
The courtyard door was knocked loudly, Tang Chunming straightened his body and looked at Xiao Hua, who was not vigilant, but ran towards the door shaking his head and tail, seemed to be an acquaintance, took A Lin's hand and said, "Let's go, let's see who is here. "
"it is good."
"Brother Ming, are you at home? I'm Yu Mu!" A loud voice called out before reaching the door.
"Here we come." Tang Chunming responded hastily.
When Tang Chunming opened the door, he didn't tell anyone to come in and have a rest. Zhang Xiuer reminded him face-to-face. Apparently, Yu Mu knew it too, so he stood by the door with a big grin and said cheerfully, "Look. My eldest brother and I went to the mountains and picked up a lot of things. Brother Ming will help us cook a few dishes, and leave the rest for the three children to add to the mouth. Brother Ming, I will put it here , when it’s ready, let Da Mao and Er Mao send it over.” Putting down a beetle, he left after speaking.
Tang Chunming took a look in Lou, Da Le, what he really wanted to do, the rabbits and pheasants inside were packed, and they were waiting to be put into the pot, everyone walked away, Tang Chunming unceremoniously brought it back In the yard, close the door again, and say to Alin: "Go, mother will cook something delicious tonight." Although the rabbits and pheasants in this season have less meat, it's better to have it than nothing, and even the little flowers are all covered.
Next night, Da Mao and Er Mao came back with their mother, because they knew that all the things they picked would be given to Tang Chunming, so the two boys were very hardworking and serious. It's fresh mushrooms, just used to stew pheasant, so the taste should not be too fresh.
In the evening, there is no need to send it to Tang Chunming. After Tang Chunming cooked it, Zhang Xiu asked his own man to bring more than half of it to Li Feng's house so that he would not have to go home. The three of them, mother and child, ate directly at Tang Chunming's house. Dashan and the other three men came here as conveniently as they wanted, even if they were drinking, no brother would take care of them.
Zhang Xiu and Tang Chunming ate and chatted, and for some reason they mentioned Zhao Dahu: "Not many of the wild animals that Dahu killed back then got into the mouths of you and A Lin, or they were sent over there or Send it to the town to sell, people outside think that you mother and son are living a good life, and they often gossip behind your back, if it is really like what they say, you and A Lin will not be so thin back then , and everyone over there is so fat, it’s good now, it’s only been a few months, everyone has lost weight, but your life here is getting better and better. Forget it, let’s not talk about it, everyone is gone. It's useless, he can still hear it underground? In the future, Brother Axiu will help you find a good man who will love you."
"Brother Axiu, you haven't had a drink, so why are you talking nonsense, Da Mao quickly bring some quick rabbit meat to your mother, and shut his mouth." Tang Chunming laughed.
"Grandmother eats meat." Da Mao obediently took a piece of rabbit meat and sent it to Grandmother's bowl. Er Mao and A Lin followed suit, and soon there were three more pieces of meat in Zhang Xiu's bowl, and Zhang Xiu couldn't help it. Laughed.
"Okay, if I don't talk about it, I can't do it. Then I will talk about our Dashan. You see, Dashan is silent, but he has us, mother and child, in his heart, and knows to protect the three of us. His mother and my mother often He scolded him for marrying his elder brother and forgetting his mother, heck, he didn't look at himself, just because Dashanzui was not as boring as his elder brother would make grandma happy, so this grandma's heart was biased, and she wanted to make my family Didn't Da Shan know about taking things to supplement his elder brother's house? Just a few days ago, he called Da Shan back and scolded him, didn't it mean that Da Shan didn't let boy Feng and Yu Mu, big men, help his elder brother's house with work? If you say you want to help outsiders and don't know how to help your own brothers, then you have to have a brother over there. I usually have less filial piety with Dashan, so maybe our family Dashan even takes care of the elder brother's nephew. It's called filial piety."
For some reason, talking and talking turned into bitterness. There is no trouble in any family, and it is inevitable to live a bumpy life. Outsiders are envious of Zhang Xiu and Dashan who are two sensible boys. , who knows that the grandma at home is also partial.
"I don't like Uncle and Brother Dabao. Grandma also asked my brother and I to bring Brother Dabao to learn how to read with Grandma Ming. My brother and I didn't agree with Grandma and even scolded us." Ermao said suddenly.
Zhang Xiu was stunned, and Tang Chunming was also dumbfounded. There was such a thing. Seeing that Da Mao lowered his head and gnawed on the bone without making a sound, it seemed that such a thing really happened. Zhang Xiu became angry, but because he was not at home, he cared about Brother Ming's body, so he said angrily: "Look who these people are, Dabao, Dabao, how precious they are, the two boys in my family can't compare A kid from his big brother's house."
Tang Chunming also knew that Li Dashan was the second child and had an elder brother above him. After Dashan got married, he separated from the elder brother, and his mother lived with the elder brother's family. At first, Brother Dashan’s family gave birth to two brothers, but there was no boy. At that time, Da Mao already had one, and Da Mao’s grandma liked it very much. He took the initiative to help Zhang Xiu take care of the child. Big Mao's treatment has been reduced step by step, and Er Mao has never enjoyed such treatment. The family really dotes on that big treasure.
Fortunately, Dashan is not like Dahu, who listens to whatever his mother says. Dashan still protects his little family and loves his two children. Let the two children run to the house of their mother and eldest brother, so as not to be bullied or suffer. He also often goes to the town to earn more money so that the two sons can live a good life.
Tang Chunming patted his hand and said: "There is no need to be angry. Besides, even if you and Dashan really send people over, it depends on whether I accept them. I am not a special teacher, but just teach two words." , and Da Mao and Er Mao are also diligent, if you change your nephew, where did he come from and where did he go back, would it be possible for me to serve him instead?"
&&&
At Li Feng's house, Yu Mu got out some wine from somewhere and the three men drank it together, and they talked a lot when they drank too much wine and ate enough food.
Don't look at Li Dashan who usually doesn't talk much and keeps his voice quiet, but once he drank this wine, it was completely two people, and once the chatterbox was opened, it would be endless.
"Boy Feng, don't blame me as an older brother for talking about you. You are not too young anymore. Your uncle and uncle don't think about you anymore. Then you don't think about yourself. Let's see, wild thing No one at home can burn it after calling back, and I have to take it to someone else’s house to make it. If there is a brother in my family, not only can I eat comfortably, but I can also live comfortably. Outsiders say that my family’s He's so splashy, but they don't know how good he is." Li Dashan, who usually doesn't show his face, has a complacent expression on his face at this moment.
