Mrs. Liu nodded, thinking that her daughter and niece were both young now. "Yes, that child's hands and feet are usually unclean. He not only peeked at women bathing, but also went to our melon field to steal melons. He was caught by Da Zhuang. He was cruel

I gave him a good beating. However, dogs can't change their bad habits. If parents don't take good care of this bad habit, it will be useless in the future. Our children can't do this. If anyone steals other people's things or peeks at women taking a bath, I'll beat them.

Break his legs."

Liu Pan'er took it for granted, "Yes, if children are not well-disciplined, they will not only harm others, but also harm themselves in the future! No matter they are boys or girls, they must have good character, work diligently, and be upright. I have a sister-in-law with me.

Educate our children together. Even if our children cannot become pillars of the country in the future, they can at least become adults."

Seeing her third brother and sister praising her, Mrs. Liu was a little embarrassed and said, "Third brother and sister, that's a compliment."

"By the way, sister-in-law, I have something to discuss with you." Seeing that Mrs. Liu was about to do other things, Liu Pan'er quickly stopped her, "Aunt Cuihua said that her family will open up wasteland tomorrow and she wants to open up wasteland with us. But I

I just had my period, so I probably won’t be able to go out tomorrow.”

Hearing this, Mr. Liu was stunned, "Third brothers and sisters, the village chief has many family members, but we have few people. How can we divide the wasteland we open up with them?"

Liu Pan'er replied: "My aunt said we should divide it equally."

"Ah?" Mrs. Liu was stunned again and shook her head, "This is so unfair. We are the only two in our family who can do the heavy work, and the rest are children. It is not appropriate for us to share it equally with them. We are taking too much advantage.

.”

Liu Pan'er nodded, "That's what I said too, but my aunt said that it was thanks to me during the escape that their family was able to survive. After settling down, I gave them melon seedlings so that they could make money by selling melons. They are grateful to me, so

I want to open up wasteland together and then divide it equally, thank me."

When Mrs. Liu heard this, she thought about it carefully and said, "Thinking about it this way, I think it's quite appropriate. It should be right."

Liu Pan'er shook her head and laughed, "But by accepting it like this, I felt that I was taking advantage of the village chief's family, but Aunt Cuihua was too enthusiastic, and I couldn't resist it. However, I said that during the land reclamation period, I would eat at her house.

Wrap it up and try to let them eat well."

Hearing this, Mrs. Liu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "That's good. The clothes at home are also ready, and I will follow them to open up wasteland tomorrow. I will take Dabao, Ali, Afang, and Arong with me.

The land is being cleared. You cook at home and watch Xiaobao and Nan."

Liu Pan'er nodded, "Okay, sister-in-law, when my menstruation is over, I will also go to open up wasteland. Leave the meals to me these days and I will figure out a solution."

When Li Dabao heard that his family was going to open up wasteland, his eyes lit up, "Mom, are we going to open up wasteland again? Oh, that's really great."

"Yes, by opening up wasteland, our family will have more land. Mom, so am I." Li Fang was eager to give it a try, and she wanted to do her best for the sake of this family.

"And me." Li Li and Li Fang said in unison, they wanted to go too.

Li Xiaobao and Anan were young and couldn't open up wasteland, but they looked at Liu Pan'er and said, "Mom, we can light a fire and help mom cook."

Liu Pan'er saw her children being so active and asked with a smile: "It's very hot to open up wasteland, aren't you afraid of being tired and not afraid of the heat?"

Li Rong replied crisply: "Mom, we are not afraid of getting tired. When we are tired, we rest for a while and then we will recover. If it is hot, we wear bamboo hats and drink more water. It will be much better than when we were tired, hungry and scared when we were fleeing. Besides, we should wear hats and drink more water.

, if we didn’t open up wasteland to grow melons, how could we sell melons now?”

Li Xiaobao rushed to say: "My mother, I know. Plant one grain of millet in spring and harvest ten thousand grains in autumn. If we work hard now, we will reap the harvest later."

The children expressed their opinions, and Liu Pan'er felt sad and warm at the same time.

The children of the poor have become their own family early, and the profound memory of escaping from famine has left a deep impression on them that they may never forget in their lifetime.

The panic and hunger at that time have always spurred them to work hard. On the other hand, it is also a kind of motivation.

"Okay, you do some of the work you can do. Don't push yourself to do the work you can't do, so as not to tire your body." Liu Pan'er explained that the children are hard-working, but they cannot be allowed to ignore their health.

"I know, mother." Li Dabao and others agreed, preparing to follow them to open up wasteland tomorrow.

Let's talk about Zhou Cuihua going home and telling her family that she and Liu Pan'er will continue to open up wasteland tomorrow and they will be divided equally.

Village Chief Li was angry and kept thinking of Liu Pan'er's contribution. He nodded and swallowed the sewage in his mouth, "Okay, without the help of the Yuan Qing family, we wouldn't be able to live the comfortable life we ​​have today."

Zhou Cuihua also smiled and said: "Yes, look at the meat we eat and the stewed soup on the noodles, they were all thought up by the Yuan Qing family."

At this time, Li Yuanjia's daughter-in-law was unhappy when she heard this. The braised water was delicious, but it was not a gift from Liu that they paid for it.

"Mom, I spent twenty cents on the braised water." Yuanjia's daughter-in-law reminded in a low voice that Liu Pan'er was not given for free.

Zhou Cuihua heard this, and the expressions of others seemed a little unhappy. She felt that it was necessary to educate these people who smashed the pot after eating.

"Haha, where did you get the money to buy the brine? Your private money or the money you earned?" Zhou Cuihua asked, not angry, but with a serious expression.

Yuanjia's wife was stunned when she heard this and stopped talking. After a round, she was squeezed into silence.

Zhou Cuihua saw that the other people's eyes were a little evasive, so she tried her best to explain patiently, "You only saw us helping Yuan Qing's wife, but you forgot about the help that Yuan Qing's wife brought to us. She saved our lives when we were escaping from famine. This matter,

Maybe you think it has been a long time and you have almost forgotten it. But don’t forget, the white noodles we eat, the white rice we eat, and the meat we eat are all bought from selling melons. The melon seedlings are also free for Yuan Qing’s wife

There are so many melon seedlings and sweet potato seedlings for us. Have you forgotten the recent events?"

Village Chief Li echoed his wife and gave instructions to the children, "If you look at other things, this Yuan Qing family is not an ordinary woman based on her behavior. The last time I saw the imperial envoy Gu, I was so frightened that my calves cramped.

Jia is still hiding from me. But Yuan Jia’s daughter-in-law is generous and neither humble nor overbearing. She told the imperial envoy Mr. Gu our request and strived for the opportunity to settle down in the south in the future."

When Mrs. Li heard that her son and daughter-in-law were sober, she did not forget the people who had helped them just because the family's life was getting better.

Grandma Li laughed and said, "You guys, you can't look at things a little bit. The Yuan Qing family is unusual. Even if we open up a lot of wasteland, we don't know what to plant. In the end, even if there is a harvest in the wasteland, we probably won't make much money. But
Chapter completed!
