MTL - Dressed As a Farm Boy, He Cheated on His Way Out of the Desert.

Chapter 71 Tired and happy!

"You didn't do it on purpose? Did your sister deliberately knock herself into a rabbit mouth?"

Old Mrs. Li was merciless and frightened her two reckless grandsons.

Jia'an and Jiaxi couldn't see how seriously their sister was injured, so they thought that their sister would become like a rabbit and have a three-petal mouth.

They cried louder and louder, as if the sky was falling.

 Everyone in the family couldn't help laughing, even with the good news, but their mouths hurt when they laugh.

 She is not a real child, so how can she hold grudges over such a trivial matter.

So, she reached out and ran towards the two naughty boys.

Mrs. Li said, "Stop crying, come here and give me a hug. Your sister is so good! She's not angry even if you throw her like this."

 Jiaan and Jiaxi quickly wiped away their tears and ran forward.

 The two of them were holding their sister's chubby little body, feeling even more uncomfortable.

“Grandma, we must take good care of my sister in the future.”

 “Yes, I will never leave my sister behind again.”

Jiayin endured the pain and kissed each of them on the face, and the little storm was over.

 The family has income again, and it is so abundant.

 Everyone, old or young, was happy, and the lunch was very sumptuous.

Stewed a smoked rabbit, cut a piece of pickled bacon and fried cabbage, steamed a large pot of rice, and also made egg soup.

Jia An and Jia Xishi didn’t even raise their heads.

Once a bowl of rice is in your hand, it will be gone in the blink of an eye.

 Zhao Yuru quietly gave the rice in her bowl to her son.

 Half a young man, I am a poor man!

Mrs. Li was feeding her granddaughter egg custard and thinking about it in her mind.

Jia An Jiaxi is ten years old this year. Although it is a false age, she is actually more than eight years old.

 The family always has to plan their future future...

 Jia Anjia enjoys eating happily and has no idea that their days of crazy fun are about to end...

 At night, the whole village fell asleep.

 As usual, this is the busiest time for the Li family.

 The watering in the fields cannot be done without manpower, so the only one who is binding vegetables at home tonight is Mrs. Li, who brought home An Jiaxi.

There is also good news that makes me drool when I sleep, staying by my side.

 It’s really tiring to put water and cut vegetables. This little baby of hers was on overload.

Orange Mrs. Li was worried about her granddaughter, who fell again during the day.

 So, she put two chairs together to form a small cradle. A mattress was spread in the middle, and my granddaughter put it inside. It was safe and comfortable.

Occasionally, when she is free, she can shake a cattail leaf fan for her granddaughter.

 In addition to the green vegetables tonight, there is also a pot of cherries.

Jia An’s family likes to bundle vegetables and drool at the same time.

Mr. Li was so funny that he picked up a few cherries for his grandson to satisfy his craving.

"This thing is too valuable. If you sell it, the money will be of great use to your family. Just taste it. It will rain in a few days. You can eat as much as you want."

 “Don’t worry, we know.”

 “Yes, we don’t eat secretly.”

 The two boys were so happy that they never looked at the pot again.

Old Mrs. Li couldn't help but sigh, in this **** world, there are constant natural and man-made disasters.

 In previous years, children would just lie on the tree and eat cherries as cheaply as they wanted.

Now it’s actually a valuable thing!

 When good news is picking cherries, I am impatient to pick. There are cherry leaves in the pottery pot, and some bad fruits.

 But Mrs. Li did not intend to pick and clean.

This thing is willing to rot if it touches water, so it can only be eaten immediately after washing.

Grandparents and grandson have been busy most of the night. All the vegetables are packed in baskets and the roosters crow.

Li Laoer and Li Laosi also rushed back from the fields and they were about to set off immediately.

 Otherwise the villagers would be in trouble when they got up early to fetch water.

 The big green mule worked very hard, so Mrs. Li specially prepared a cabbage for it.

Daqing ate a big meal and set off in high spirits.

 Because of the cherries, the sales are better today than yesterday. At three o'clock in the morning, the mule cart returned.

 The income was fourteen taels, which was put into the money box by Mrs. Li.

 The whole family is full of heart, excited and happy.

 Silver is the lifeblood of the whole family.

They never imagined that they would leave their hometown and come to a foreign land. There are still such good days!

“Hongying, make more steamed egg custard at noon and cut into pieces of meat. I’m too tired from work at home recently, so I need to eat better. Replenish your strength!”

 Old Mrs. Li couldn't hide the joy in her eyes, "Now we don't need these things at home!"

Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru both laughed and responded loudly.

 At lunch, the family ate even more delicious food, but the old men next door were confused.

The Li family is struggling. Are they planning to eat one meal and miss another meal?

 The old man wanted to ask the Li family, but he was stopped by Uncle Zhao.

 He comes in and out of the Li family the most, so there are some vague guesses. The Li family must have some way of making money, otherwise they wouldn't be so "wasteful".

They don’t need to dig deeper and just hope that the Li family will get better and better.

So, the old men worked harder to water the water at night.

The saber that had been treasured for many years was also taken out to prevent wild animals from the mountains from coming down and harming the crops.

 Because within a radius of dozens of miles, the Li family's field is still a little green.

 In the rest, the mountains and forests have all withered and turned yellow, and the crops of each family are completely hopeless.

　　Everyone seemed to have drunk dumb medicine and remained silent.

 They don’t know what to say, or they have no way to ask for help.

 When I came to Li's house to fetch water in the morning, the yard was extremely quiet.

 No one is gossiping, no one is joking.

 Only the Li family is still busy.

 Rest during the day, carry water to water crops, and pack vegetables into baskets at night.

More than a dozen taels a day, this money was earned like running water, and the money box was filled up in almost a few days.

 The mood of the Li family is extremely contradictory.

 Hoping for rain to come soon and end this drought. Secretly, I wanted to hold on for a few more days, so that I could sell my home for more money.

Jiayin is also very tired. He is busy filling water, cutting vegetables, and picking cherries every day.

 Even so, we still have to think about food for the family and replenishing the body.

She took out a lot of meat from the refrigerator in the small courtyard, and almost only fish and shrimps were left.

She reluctantly caught one of the hens in the yard.

 Fortunately, the old hen that lay down in the nest earlier was very helpful.

 Today, more than 40 fluffy chicks have joined the big family.

 The young and old of the Li family steamed eggs, scrambled eggs, stewed meat, and stewed chicken every day, constantly taking supplements. But even the strongest Li Laosi is much darker and thinner...

 In this way, another half month passed.

 Finally, one afternoon, a few white clouds came from the sky.

Everyone stared intently, not daring to speak, and not daring to hold firewood to cover the sauce vat.

 The rules passed down from the elders are not to catch the rain.

 It means rushing to do things before it rains, and it is easy to scare the rain away.

I don’t know if there is any scientific basis, but at this moment, there can be no mistakes.

 The whole village is extremely quiet, silent and heavy.

No one had eaten dinner, and sat in the dark night, waiting quietly.

 Finally, a bolt of lightning pierced the sky, followed by a sudden heavy thunder.

The big raindrops fell from the sky, hitting the roofs, the treetops, and the fields that had been dry for a long time!

 “Woo hoo, we’re saved!”

I don’t know which woman was the first to cry out, which completely aroused everyone’s pain and ecstasy.

 At night, countless people ran out of their homes, shouting in the heavy rain.

 “It’s raining, it’s raining!”

Even more people knelt on the ground and kowtowed frantically, not knowing what they were thanking for.

 The children rushed into the puddle and rolled around hard.
