With the last rays of the setting sun, the rumbling tractor stopped steadily in front of the gate of Lao Su's house.

The three treasures of the Su family were waiting at the door early, waiting for the tractor to stop, and they rushed up "Aunt and Uncle Rice Ball Pillar Xiaodoubao..." and kept shouting.

When I was a child, I always felt that time passed slowly. For adults, one or two years may be fleeting, but for children, it is really a very long time.

Xiaobao rushed to the front. The first person to get off the tractor was Han Cheng. He half hugged Su Xiaoxiao and came down. Su Xiaoxiao didn't even have the ground, so Xiaobao gave a tiger hug to both of them. Live: "aunt and uncle, Xiaobao wants to kill you all!"

Han Cheng looked at the half-eldest boy who had jumped up to the height of his own ears and knew that he had not stopped exercising in all these years. He couldn't help but think of the first time he came to Sujia Village with Su Xiaoxiao. At that time, Xiaobao was still not his waist height. the little one.

Watching the child grow up, Fang Jue's years are like water.

Han Cheng patted Xiaobao on the shoulder: "They're all grown up."

Xiaobao was happy when he heard it, and compared his biceps: "I exercise every day, I'm taller than Brother Dabao."

Su Xiaoxiao rubbed his nephew's head: "Yes, it's grown and strong."

Xiaobao was so happy that Dabao took Yaobao and also came to hug his aunt and uncle.

Su Xiaoxiao bent down and picked up Yaobao: "Does Yaobao remember aunt?"

The little guy is only a few months younger than the baby dragon and phoenix. The last time he came back, he was a little boy who could not walk steadily. Now he can run and jump, and he is about the same height as Xiaotangyuan. Yaobao smiled shyly: "Remember the beautiful aunt, still Remember beautiful sister."

Su Xiaoxiao and Xiao Tangyuan are the two most beautiful people in Yaobao's memory, although he didn't even say a word when we met last time, but he just remembered it.

The rice **** and the pillars also jumped down, and by the way, they carried their younger siblings down.

The cubs have not seen each other for such a long time, each one is more excited than the other. Big treasure and Xiaobao are rushing to hold Xiaodoubao and Longfeng Fei. Rice **** and Zhuzi are also rushing to hold Yaobao. After the big ones have finished holding the small ones, Xiaodoubao and small dumplings are also rushing to hold. Holding Yaobao, when Yaobao was a child, he liked to stick to sister Xiaotangyuan the most. Naturally, his eyes narrowed with joy. A group of children held hands and circled together, and the laughter resounded throughout the village.

Li Yufeng ran out with an apron still on her body, and her eyes turned red when she saw them.

Seeing Li Yufeng, the cubs let go of their hands and ran towards her, shouting "Grandmamamama", hugging her and starting to act like a spoiled child.

"I haven't seen each other for more than a year. You are all grown up. You are all good grandma's grandsons." Li Yufeng hugged each cub, and when she hugged the small dumplings, she finally couldn't help crying with joy, "We My little dumplings are so big, and they look more and more like my mother."

Xiao Tangyuan reached out to help grandma wipe her tears: "grandma doesn't cry, just be happy."

Li Yufeng grabbed Xiaotangyuan's hand and kissed it: "Grandma is not crying, grandma is happy, I am very happy to see you."

Su Xiaoxiao also came over to hug Li Yufeng and her daughter, and called out "mother" tenderly.

The girl is a piece of meat on Li Yufeng's heart. This "mother" called Li Yufeng until she could not cry, saying that she didn't want her to be a fake. Although there were correspondence, they were all happy and reassuring things, but I saw it with my own eyes. It's always different.

After they finished talking, Han Cheng began to instruct a few young men to move things.

Dabao and Xiaobao have been able to support half an adult in the past two years. They can carry 180 catties of pig food and fertilizer, and their strength is indeed much stronger than that of rice **** and pillars that have not done much rough work.

All the things were unloaded and moved in, Su Zhenhua went to put the tractor, and the four big cubs began to stand taller than back to back.

Dabao said: "I am the eldest brother, I must be taller."

Xiaobao said: "My dad said last year that I look a little taller than you, but you are just a little stronger than me."

The rice ball said, "Xiaobao, don't stand on tiptoe, I think I'm taller than you."

Xiaobao shaved his head a little, and his face was a little tanned, but looking very strong and energetic, he was naturally unconvinced: "You only have longer hair than me, so you look taller."

The pillar did not speak, and silently leaned over.

It's amazing to say, these big cubs, Dabao is the largest, Xiaobao and Zhuzi are the same age, and the rice ball is the smallest, but they are less than two years old before and after, and their bodies are similar. It looks a little stronger. The rice **** eat a lot and exercise a lot, and they don't look thin. Even the pillars look very thin, but their parents have good genes. Zhang Hongtu is 1.85 meters tall, and Yali is also close to 1.7 meters, so On the contrary, the pillar is the tallest, but in fact, the difference between several children is less than two centimeters.

Su Xiaoxiao became the referee and made a final decision: "The pillar is the highest, and the three of you are the same height. Alright, alright, the sun is going down, so take turns to wash your hands and bathe, and have dinner later."

Little Treasure had an idea and said, "Aunt, why don't I take them to the reservoir to swim and take a bath?"

Before Su Xiaoxiao said anything, Li Yufeng immediately denied it: "No! Have you forgotten your master's rules? There are a lot of snakes, worms, rats and ants on the road at night. What if you get cramps or get bitten by a water snake?"

In the hottest summer of last year, two and a half children nearly drowned when they went swimming in the reservoir with cramps. If Su Zhenhua happened to come back from the farm and rescued them, the two children would be gone.

After that time, Su Weimin posted an announcement, writing it down for everyone to take a warning, and expressly stipulated that children under the age of 18 are not allowed to swim in the reservoir if they are not accompanied by an adult. Do it at your own risk.

Since then, no children have gone to the reservoir alone to swim. The deepest part of the reservoir is several meters deep, which is no joke.

Han Cheng said, "I won't go tonight, I'll take you there tomorrow and during the day."

The cubs were very obedient. Although it was a bit of a disappointment, it didn't last long. The boys filled the buckets and large pots that could be used at home and squeezed them all into the shower room.

Thanks to the large bathrooms in rural areas, otherwise so many people would be unable to turn around.

Xiaobao said while lifting the water: "By the way, how is Xiaoyuer now? I haven't seen Xiaoyuer for a long time."

Onigiri shook his head and said, "We haven't seen him since we went to the capital. He is lazy. We wrote him three letters and he only replied one. The words are still so ugly. For a while, he was clamoring to come to the capital to find us."

Zhuzi said: "Qingfeng Town is not far from here, why don't we call him tomorrow and let him come over for a few days?"

A few cubs looked at each other, and the rice ball said, "That's a good idea. We'll call him tomorrow, lest he really go to the capital and miss out."

After entering the shower room, the rice ball began to complain about taking a bath in the capital bathhouse in winter. He had already complained about it in the letter before. The bathhouse is really the shadow of the southern children. In the ranks, only Xiaoroubao thought it was very interesting, so that the other three Nanbao Sanbao who had never seen the northern bathhouse wanted to see it.

Su Family Sanbao also began to talk about what happened in Sujia Village in the past two years. After a while, there was probably a water fight inside, and there were continuous laughter and laughter.

Han Cheng took the small glutinous rice **** to tidy things up, Su Xiaoxiao helped in the kitchen, Li Yufeng knew that her daughter was doing well when she saw the spring breeze on her face, and listening to the children's laughter and laughter made her feel very at ease, she couldn't help but sigh:

"Speaking of which, these children in our family are really good. If there are so many boys in other families, they will dance every day, but these children in our family seem to have a very good relationship since they met, let alone fights, not even quarrels. I tried it, and Xiaobao also looked angry, but he never really quarreled with Dabao Yaobao. He let them do everything, and he studied seriously, especially after the college entrance examination was resumed. Dabao and Xiaobao said that they would pass the test. Going to university in the capital, studying hard, first place in the exam every year, and taking Yaobao very well, your elder brother, elder sister-in-law, second brother and second sister-in-law are really the most worry-free parents, and they didn’t bother much.”

Li Yufeng didn't say that Su Xiaoxiao hadn't noticed it yet. The cubs in the family seemed to be angel babies. I really never saw them fight or quarrel. The big ones took the young ones, because they were used to it, but Su Xiaoxiao felt that this was the only way. is normal.

"Mother, you seem to be really saying this. Although there are four children in the family, it's quite easy for me to bring them. Especially after the restaurant is opened, I don't even have to worry about them, and the life of other single classmates is similar to that of other single classmates." From time to time She can still be in the world with Han Cheng. She also laughed and said that she and Han Cheng were in love after marriage, and she would have time to fall in love when the child was older.

Speaking of this restaurant, Su Xiaoxiao mentioned it before, but Li Yufeng didn't ask: "Is it really okay for you to open a restaurant? Can you maintain it? There are people in our county who open it secretly, but it doesn't seem to make much money, but I haven't heard of it. Just got checked."

Su Xiaoxiao said, "Don't worry, mother, I guess we will be issued licenses in a few years, and it will only become more and more standardized. We will generate income for the country and pay taxes to the country. The country welcomes it."

Anyway, her daughter understands the policy better than her, Li Yufeng nodded, put some chopped pickle heads on the fish heads, and generously picked up a few lard residues from the lard jar and put them on it, and finally sprinkled on it. Add some sugar to the pot and steam.

"The current policy is getting better and better, and I recently heard from your father that you want to implement the land contract responsibility system, that the land should be distributed to each household, that is to say, the fields in our team should be distributed to each household to be contracted. Go it alone, so as not to raise lazy people. Since those educated youths have returned to the city one after another, the labor force in the team has been reduced, and the tasks assigned to those lazy people who are slow at work are naturally heavier. They began to complain, I listen to your father It means that if you don't raise lazy people in the future, whoever can't grow rice will be hungry, and you won't want to eat a big pot of rice again."

Su Xiaoxiao thought about the time. It seems that the responsibility contracting system was implemented in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Her father's consciousness is very high. They may be the first to implement this system in Sujia Village. As for the village, that must go down in history.

"Mother, father's idea is very good. After this policy is fully promoted, the farm and other side businesses in the village will definitely implement the contract system. You should remember to ask the second brother to contract the farm, so that you can work more and more. Yes, except for the part that was turned in, the rest is ours."

Li Yufeng pushed a handful of firewood into the earthen stove, nodded and said, "I have never thought about this, but the scale of the farm is not large now. After Teacher Yang's family returned to the city, the second brother has been in charge of it, and he has managed it well. Okay, by the way, is Teacher Yang's family okay?"

Su smiled and nodded: "It's good, we went to the Shanghai market to see them before we came, and they were all very good."

Li Yufeng sighed again: "Our two families are really destined to be relatives in the future. They really help Dabao Xiaobao and your second brother a lot. Without them, the children's learning will not be so good, your second brother. I can't learn anything about scientific farming."

Su Xiaoxiao took Li Yufeng's shoulder and said, "Father and mother are also very good to them. This is called good people get good rewards."

Li Yufeng tapped her daughter's nose: "Okay, I can't tell you what to do. Go and see if your father and your second sister-in-law are back. The fish head is ready for dinner after steaming."

Su smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll take a look."

Su Weimin is now a busy man in the commune. After Su Zhenhua took over the responsibility of the team leader, everyone in the team is still used to looking for him. He really can't stop for a moment.

This end helped kill the fish, and the other end came looking for it again. Zhang Chunying is now the director of women's and children, and Zhang Chunying will follow him out.

When they came back, the fish heads were over steamed.

A group of children kept shouting around their "grandfather and second aunt", and all the troubles they had left behind for a while.

It’s true that the cubs are good, but it’s also true that when there are too many children, it’s also true that you and I are quarreling with each other.

Su Xiaoxiao finally saw the needle and asked Su Weimin: "Dad, second sister-in-law, where have you all gone?"

Zhang Chunying sighed and said, "It's not the boss of Liu Shuixian."

Su Xiaoxiao was stunned: "Liu Shuixian? Widow Liu? What happened to her? By the way, isn't she a high school student? Didn't she take the college entrance examination?"

Zhang Chunying said: "Why not, I failed the test once last year, and said that she would take the test again this year. I saw that she had been reviewing, but she didn't know what was going on. Before the test, she suddenly said that she would go back to the city with an educated youth. As a result, I missed the exam, in short, the educated youth doesn't want her anymore, and I can't pass the college entrance examination. I have to live and die at home, and my father and I just dealt with this matter."

This time, Su Xiaoxiao really didn't know what to say.
