Sister Duan quickly waved her hand in fright: "Just spare my old bone."

"Although I drive fast, it is very stable." Song Zhaodi played with the car keys, "Auntie, this opportunity is rare. If you miss this time, you will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey."

Zhong Jianguo stretched out his hand and took away the key: "No next time." Then he shouted at Sister Duan, "Auntie, let\'s go back to the house when you talk about you." Let me in."

"Stingy." A sour smell came to her face, Song Zhaodi hurriedly carried her bag into the house and poured out the dirty clothes in the bag, "Zhong Jianguo, you wash your clothes, we will boil water for a bath. "

Zhong Jianguo: "There is hot water on the stove, you can wash it with hot water. There is also a tank of water outside, which I pressed in the morning, and it is hot now." "Self-reliance, big baby, you are washing outside."

"Dad, I\'m twelve years old." Zi Li pointed to the distance, "There are many women chatting over there, and they will see them."

Zhong Jianguo looked back and said with a smile, "You know you\'re shy? I\'ll build a wooden shed next to the toilet tomorrow. You guys wash there when it\'s hot?"

"That\'s fine." Think about it carefully, "Thank you Dad. Dad, I\'ll help you build a shed tomorrow."

Zhong Jianguo smiled and said, "Okay. Then you can wait for a while. After your mother has washed, you can go to the house to wash."

"Let\'s eat a cucumber first." Dawa held a large cucumber in one hand and a large tomato in the other, "Dad, do you cook by yourself or eat in the cafeteria during this time?"

Zhong Jianguo: "I eat three meals a day in the camp. Do you feel sorry for your dad?"

"No." Zhong Dawa thought about it for a while, "If I knew I couldn\'t starve you, we would spend a few more days at my grandma\'s house."

Zhong Jianguo slapped him on the back of the head, and then waved at Erwa: "Did you learn to paint with your uncle and grandpa this time?"

"Uncle and grandpa can\'t draw." Erwa said, "The other grandpa can. Dad, I can draw people now."

Zhong Jianguo was surprised: "Really?"

Erwa nodded, pursed her lips and smiled, a little embarrassed: "It\'s not quite the same."

"It\'s alright, let\'s learn slowly." Zhong Jianguo comforted his son, "Our second child is still young, we will learn from that grandpa for another month during the summer vacation next year, and when I come back, my father will be yours. —”

Song Zhaodi was looking for clean clothes upstairs when she heard Zhong Jianguo stammer, and stuck out her head to remind: "Be a model."

"Yes, a model." Zhong Jianguo said, "In the future, your brothers and sisters will also be models for you. When you are as self-reliant as you are, our clothes will be handed over to you."

Dawa doubts: "Will he? If the cloth is cut, we won\'t have to wear it."

"Find a piece of cloth to mend it if it\'s broken." Zhong Jianguo touched Erwa\'s head, "I believe Erwa can do it well."

Erwa nodded vigorously: "I can do it well."

"Let\'s put the clothes aside first." Zhong Jianguo patted the back of his head, "Go and pick a tomato for your dad."

Sanwa said quickly, "Second brother, help me pick one."

"I picked it." Gengsheng came over with the tomatoes in his clothes, "Dad, how many days have we not picked our tomatoes?"

Zhong Jianguo think about it: "It\'s been five or six days since I received the telegram from your mother. Don\'t just eat these, I will steam a pot of rice in the afternoon, and we will fry the rice with salted eggs later. ."

"Dad really knows how to eat." However, I didn\'t dare to eat too much. I ate a tomato and asked Erwa and Sanwa to eat half of it. Seeing Zi Li nibbling on a cucumber, he put the rest of the tomatoes in the kitchen.

On the Dragon Head Festival, Song Zhaodi killed two hens, and the Zhong family had thirteen hens. Pick up at least ten eggs a day. Song Zhaodi took the children back to her parents\' house, but no one ate the eggs, so Zhong Jianguo asked Mrs. Duan to help him pickle the eggs.

There are two jars that were just pickled a few days ago, only a little salty, Song Zhaodi took a bath and took ten unscented eggs to make egg fried rice. Then fished four more to make tomato egg soup

The five children took a bath, and the egg fried rice and egg soup came out of the pot.

At about five o\'clock, the sun was shining, and the Zhong family had dinner.

At half past five, Song Zhaodi and five children slumped on chairs to rest, while Zhong Jianguo washed the pots and dishes.

When Zhong Jianguo was ready, the five children fell asleep. Zhong Jianguo was taken aback: "Did you sleep on the way?"

Big baby squinted: "It\'s too hot on the train, I can\'t sleep."

"What should I do? The sun has been in the sun all day, and the upstairs is hot." Zhong Jianguo looked at Song Zhaodi and asked her to think of a way.

Wengzhou Island is surrounded by water, and the island is overgrown with trees, resulting in very low temperature at night, and there is no need to use a fan to sleep in dog days. But it\'s only after five o\'clock, the sun has not set, the temperature has not dropped, the temperature upstairs is similar to the outside.

Song Zhaodi: "Go and take the mat from our bed and put it on the ground, then put it downstairs to sleep."

Zhong\'s house has eaves, so the sun can\'t get in, because the heat from the yard will come in. Although the first floor is not hot, it is very stuffy. However, it is much stronger than upstairs.

Zhong Jianguo couldn\'t help yawning when he saw his independence. He went upstairs to take down the mat, and then carried the dining table outside to make room for the mat.

The five sons lay sideways, and fell asleep as soon as their heads touched the mat.

Zhong Jianguo was very distressed and asked in a low voice, "How many of them haven\'t slept for two days and two nights?"

"I slept, but I woke up hot after a few minutes of sleep." Song Zhaodi said, "The train is not only hot, but also has a strong smell. Let\'s go press some water to wet the yard, and the house will not smell. hot."

Zhong Jianguo pointed at the bench: "You rest. I\'ll just go."

In this era, there are many simple people, and there are many orphans without parents and mothers. No one cares about children, but Song Zhaodi does not dare to be careless. After all, she takes care of five children by herself, so that she has not slept for forty-eight hours . Zhong Jianguo said so, Song Zhaodi did not support it, and let him water the ground alone.

Zhong Jianguo went to the kitchen to get a bucket, and when he came out, he heard the snoring louder and louder, even Song Zhaodi, who never snored in sleep, joined in, feeling distressed and wanting to laugh, shook his head and went to press the water .

Sister-in-law Duan came in with a paddle fan. Seeing that Zhong Jianguo was the only one, she was very curious: "Where\'s Xiao Song?"

"Too tired, fell asleep." Zhong Jianguo pouted in the direction of the living room.

Sister Duan hooked her head and lowered her voice: "Did Xiao Song tell you about her eldest sister?"

"I didn\'t have time to say it." Zhong Jianguo said, "When the children were eating, you said something to me, and the quarrel made my brain hurt, and I forgot to ask." I was afraid that Mrs. Duan was worried," If Zhao Di didn\'t mention it, it might be fine."

Sister Duan saw that there was a chair under the porch, and moved a chair to sit under the tree by the water well: "When Liu Ping was pregnant, your Uncle Liu thought she was disobedient and didn\'t ask much. Come on. Bao is pregnant with a child, and Uncle Liu asks when he thinks of it. Alas, this Liu Yang is also naive, and he is in his thirties, so why did he let her give birth?"

"The eldest sister is willing to have a baby herself. It\'s not Liu Yang\'s fault." Zhong Jianguo smiled, "In our family, asking her to have a baby is like killing her."

Sister Duan took a subconscious look into the room: "I asked her before, and she said that Sanwa is still young. In more than a month, Sanwa will be six years old. It\'s time for first grade, Haven\'t let go yet?"

"No." Zhong Jianguo shook his head, "She has a right mind and a good temper, so I don\'t dare to force her." After a while, "I won\'t dare to let her give birth in another two years. Now. One of the five children can eat one, I\'m really afraid that there won\'t be enough to eat by then."

Sister Duan smiled and said: "You don\'t have to be afraid of this. If you don\'t have enough food, you and I, Uncle Liu, and the commander are still there. Our family can\'t support five children."

"Auntie, have you heard Uncle Liu mention his self-supporting grandfather?" Zhong Jianguo asked curiously.

Sister Duan shook her head: "There is no obituary, so she should still be alive." After speaking, she sighed, "No news is good news."

Zhong Jianguo also thought the same, but he was worried about self-reliance and rehabilitation: "I hope it is good news." He turned the water down the road, and when he turned around, he found that there was another person at the door, and without thinking, "Come back tomorrow. ."

"I know Zhao Di is back." Zhou Shufen came in and looked around, "Where is your wife?"

Sister Duan whispered: "Sleep in the room. Are you off work?"

"Just got off work." Seeing this, Zhou Shufen couldn\'t help but lower her voice, "As soon as I came out, I heard a few children chatting that Teacher Song was driving a speed car. Headmaster Zhong, when will your little Song start school? of?"

Zhong Jianguo snorted: "I want to know more than you."

"Didn\'t you teach it?" Sister Duan asked.

Zhong Jianguo: "She said I taught it. In fact, she stole it. Comrade Zhou Shufen, are you here for this?"

"I\'ll pick a few of your cucumbers and tomatoes." Zhou Shufen said, "The ones in our yard are eaten as fruit by their grandfathers, and I want to make a candy-mixed tomato. Couldn\'t find a red one."

Sister-in-law Duan pointed at her house: "There are many in my yard, you can pick them up."

Zhou Shufen was thin-skinned, and was embarrassed to go to Liu\'s house, so she said, "There are many in Xiao Song\'s yard. I\'ll just pick hers. Hey, Captain Zhong, find me a basket."

"Do you want me to pick it up and send it to your house?" Zhong Jianguo frowned, "I carry a bag in my hand, so I won\'t put it in it."

Zhou Shufen opened the bag: "It\'s what I bought, so I can\'t put a piece."

"I like to eat or not." Zhong Jianguo was too lazy to serve, "I tell you, Teacher Song wakes up very angry, you\'d better be quiet. Wake her up, and you will have to wait tomorrow. Think about you."

Zhou Shufen shuddered: "Your teacher Song doesn\'t take any loss."

"I hear what you mean and have an opinion on Teacher Song?" Zhong Jianguo stopped, "Then you still eat the vegetables grown by Teacher Song?"

Zhou Shufen nodded: "It\'s because I have a big opinion on her, so I eat more to make up for it." Then, she went to pick a cucumber, washed it in a bucket, and broke half of it to Sister Duan, "Your family Why does my cucumber grow bigger and faster than mine?"

"Because of the boy\'s urine." Sister Duan blurted out.

"Cough!" Zhou Shufen quickly covered her mouth and swallowed before saying, "Pour it directly?"

Sister-in-law Duan: "Put it directly and it will die. Add water and water again. Isn\'t that the case in your family?"

, not like you. I said at the time that he didn\'t encounter it."

Sister Duan shook her head and smiled: "The feces in their cesspit are all dumped into the bamboo forest behind."

"I\'ll do the same again later." Zhou Shufen said, but suddenly realized that something was wrong, "I always feel that someone is looking at me, Song Zhaodi is really asleep?"
