Yang Ruoqing led the cow to the pond, let it drink water, and then led it to the field ridge at the entrance of the village.

He took it directly to the edge of his two acres of fields and let the cows graze.

In this season, the grass has withered, and the cattle can only chew some grass roots to pass the time.

Yang Ruoqing looked at the sun directly overhead. It was almost noon, and people in the fields were finishing their work and getting ready to go home for dinner.

Uncle Chang Geng passed by Yang Ruoqing's field carrying a hoe and saw Yang Ruoqing leading a cow.

"Qing'er, whose cattle are you herding?" Chang Geng asked.

"I belong to Mr. Ga's family."

"Your grandpa is here, is he still strong?"

"It's okay. My grandpa is here to help my family plow the fields. He won't go back tonight. Uncle Chang Geng will come to my house to have a drink with my grandpa at night."

"okay"

Chang Geng walked with the front foot, and Da'an came with the back foot.

"Sister, I'll take care of the cows, and you can help your mother cook."

Panting, Daan ran to Yang Ruoqing and took the rope from her hand.

"There isn't much grass here to feed the cows. We'll have to get some straw or something for them to chew later," Yang Ruoqing said.

"Yes." Da'an responded, leading the cow along the field ridge, looking for a suitable place to graze the cow.

"Da'an, my sister went home to cook first. I'll call you when the food is ready."

"Um"

Yang Ruoqing returned home with a brisk pace.

Mrs. Sun was chopping vegetables in the kitchen, making a ping-pong sound.

Lao Suntou and Yang Huazhong were drinking tea and doing household chores in the house, while Xiao An was squatting at the door of the house and playing with mud.

Seeing Yang Ruoqing return, Xiao An's eyes lit up and she threw herself into Yang Ruoqing's arms.

"Yeah, the young man is still playing with mud. What kind of mud balls or mud tofu are these?"

Yang Ruoqing looked at the mud in Xiao An's hand and asked with a smile.

"It's mud meatballs." Xiao An said.

It is a child's nature to like to play in mud, and Yang Ruoqing will not stop it by force.

"Well, these muddy meatballs are really good. My little An is awesome."

After receiving the praise, Xiao An grinned happily.

"Xiao An, do you want to eat big and sweet dates?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

"think"

"Okay, let's wash our little hands first. Sister will take you to eat dates."

"good"

I fetched well water and washed little Anzai's hands carefully. The little black hands were washed clean.

After leading Xiao An into her room, Yang Ruoqing took out the snacks she bought from the last market and grabbed a large handful of dates for Xiao An.

"Eat well, and I'll catch it for you when you're done. Now I'm going to the kitchen to help my mother cook, why don't you come over?"

"I'll follow my sister."

Xiao An became Yang Ruoqing's follower.

In the kitchen, Yang Ruoqing asked Mrs. Sun, "Mom, what should we have for lunch?"

Sun said, "Originally, we planned to cook rice and stir-fry vegetables, but your uncle is thinking about plowing the fields in the afternoon, so let's keep things simple. Qing'er, you are just in time. Come and help mother with some advice."

Yang Ruoqing glanced at the stove and immediately had an idea.

"Mom, let's cook the dumplings we left last night. Make some cornmeal, add some caramel, and put them on cornmeal pancakes. Stir-fry a bowl of cabbage and stir-fry a bowl of eggs with spicy pepper. We'll make do with it at noon. I'll go to the village to do groceries in the afternoon.

Let’s get some food from the shop and cook some food to reward Grandpa.”

"become"

The mother and daughter made a plan and started immediately, and soon black smoke floated out of the chimney.

Here, lunch is being served in full swing, and the man from the old Yang family in the front yard arrives to finish the work.

As soon as Lao Yangtou entered the door of the east wing, Mrs. Tan poured him a bowl of tea, "Lao San and his father-in-law are here, driving an ox cart and a plow. It seems that they are coming to help them plow the fields and plant wheat."

Old Yangtou took a sip of tea and frowned, "I'm going to the backyard to say hello to my in-laws."

"Why are you going? Don't go."

Mrs. Tan stopped Old Yangtou.

"Why"

"You are older than him, it's his turn to take a look at you," said Tan.

Old Yang's head dropped and his face dropped, "This is irrational. He is in our Changping Village. I should go and see him."

"Hmph, I heard from my fourth daughter-in-law that they are cooking dumplings and pasting corn tortillas in the backyard. Now that you have come over, people don't think you are there to say hello. They might think you are here to eat and drink." Ms. Tan

He said angrily.

Old Yangtou's face darkened, "Aren't you just going over to say hello? Why are you talking so far? Women are just like women who have long hair and short knowledge."

Lao Yangtou finally pushed Tan away, picked up the tobacco pole and went to the backyard.

This was the first time that Lao Yang walked into the third room after the separation.

Yang Huazhong was stunned for a moment when he saw his old father entering the house. He was stunned in bed and didn't know what to say.

"Oh, brother is here, sit down quickly, sit down quickly"

Upon seeing this, Lao Suntou quickly stood up and greeted Lao Yangtou.

Old Yang nodded and said to Old Sun, "When you came just now, I was still collecting work in the fields. I just came home and came over to take a look at you."

"Brother has a heart. My brother has a strong body and is good."

Lao Suntou smiled, walked to the door of the house, and asked Yang Ruoqing to pour tea.

In the room, Yang Huazhong looked at his old father in front of him with a complicated expression.

"father"

"Eh"

Lao Yangtou responded dullly and glanced at Yang Huazhong's legs covered with quilts.

"Take good care of them. If you need dad and your brothers for anything, send a child over and let him know."

"Um"

At the door of the house, Yang Ruoqing came in with tea.

"Master, you drink tea."

Old Yang nodded.

"Sir, you and I have a chat with my father-in-law. I'll go cook some food. We'll eat here at noon later. Don't leave," Yang Ruoqing said to Old Yangtou again.

Old Yangtou didn't say yes or no, he waved his hand and sent Yang Ruoqing off.

In the house, Lao Sun and Lao Yang chatted about the harvest at the end of the year.

In the next room, Yang Ruoqing and her granddaughter were busy, and Xiao An was sitting at the door of the stove, eating dates with great enthusiasm. The atmosphere was great.

When the last dish was fried, there was a sudden shout from outside.

"Aunt Yang, go and take a look. Your Da'an got into a fight at the entrance of the village."

Sun's hand shook and she looked at Yang Ruoqing, "I heard you right, Da'an got into a fight with someone."

"Mom, don't panic, I'll take a look."

Yang Ruoqing put down the bowls and chopsticks in her hands, turned around and ran towards the kitchen door.

Da'an, a shy and quiet boy, would definitely not attack others easily.

If there was a serious fight, it would be the other party's fault, and he would have resisted only because he had no way out.

A coldness flashed across Yang Ruoqing's eyes. She wanted to see who dared to bully her brother because of her ambition.

I ran to the entrance of the village in one breath, and from a distance I saw a circle of half-year-old children surrounding the pond in front of me.

Yang Ruoqing recognized this group of children at a glance. They were the same group of people who intercepted her last time when she was digging for earthworms by the river.

The leader was a little kid named Chen Goudan. Behind that Chen Goudan was his two older brothers, Chen Hu and Chen Xiong, who were looking for trouble. Unfortunately, they all gave up.

Where is Daan and Chen Goudan?

Yang Ruoqing ran over quickly, stretched out her hands, pushed aside the two little kids blocking the outside, and squeezed in.

On the ground in the middle, Chen Goudan and Daan were wrestling together.
