People these days respect the country and the soldiers who protect the country’s people.

Not to mention that the old squad leader himself and Ji Yanzhi have a life-saving grace, and he is reasonable. Ji Yanzhi knows that after the old squad leader’s wife left three children after the old squad leader’s death, he should take the children over regardless of remarriage. Raised well.

Old man Ji was full of sorrow, mainly because he had just gotten up to live in the new house of his eldest son. The eldest son's house had three more children. Wouldn't he and the old woman move in again to increase the burden on the eldest son?

"The mothers of these three children are too ruthless. How can we leave the children and marry them?" Uncle Ji exclaimed: "It was not easy for our mothers to avoid natural disasters and man-made disasters, isn't it? The three of our brothers were pulled up tightly. Didn't our old man die too early, and my mother never thought about remarrying, let alone leaving us behind."

"The rice raises all kinds of people. There are mothers who love their children and are willing to give everything for them, and naturally there are also mothers who only see themselves and ignore their children."

Ji Yanzhi is accustomed to seeing all things in life, and naturally there is nothing to say about the old squad leader’s wife abandoning three children and remarrying after the old squad leader’s death.

He just felt sorry for the three children left by the old squad leader. He felt that it was too late to make the decision to adopt the three children when he knew the news. The widow's mother would not break her bones in an anxious and angry situation, and just wait until she ran all the way and promised to raise three children properly, and then let her go.

"The three children are all sensible." Ji Yanzhi bit his lip, and said with a serious face: "I didn't know until I went there. The money I sent to them over the years was not spent on the old aunt. The sickness and the legs of the old squad leader were all secretly taken by their mother and spent on... the wild man outside.

That is, after the old squad leader died and the woman remarried, the money came to the old aunt's hands. However, three yuan a month is not enough for medicine. The three children can only drill in the mountains and forests all day long, collect some common herbs and sell them to the supply and marketing agency, and collect the medicine money for the old aunt. "

Old man Ji sighed: "They are all good children. You can raise the army well, otherwise, I'm sorry for your old squad leader's life-saving grace."

"I will treat them all as my own children and raise them together."

Ji Yanzhi handed Uncle Ji a cigarette and smoked one himself. "Uncle, I'll leave it to you to settle down for the three children. I'm going to the county town tomorrow. I will tell my comrades-in-arms that I have picked up the old squad leader's three children, and secondly, I have three more children at home. Some daily necessities have to be purchased."

Ji Yanzhi hadn't expected Wang Chunhua to think of this floor, so when he went to pick up people, he walked simply, except for telling Wang Chunhua that he remembered to clean the room, nothing else.

Fortunately, Ji Mini’s mouth is a little bit poisonous, but she can afford it compared to Wang Chunhua and Ji Dabao. Apart from buying toothbrushes, towels, enamel cylinders, thermos and other daily necessities, she has no money to buy, like extras at home. The quilt covers, sheets and quilts were all found, and the Kang bed was neatly made. So there are only some daily necessities missing.

"Okay, leave it to me, and I will keep it to the army for you to do it properly."

Uncle Ji responded, and Old Man Ji also said that he would leave it to Uncle Ji to take care of it. After a while, the four of them spoke for a while, and Wang Chunhua came out and shouted for dinner, and she made lunch.

The dishes are very simple, steamed buns with three-in-one noodles, a large pot of pork stewed vermicelli, a southern-style pork with meichai, and a pot of creamy white fish soup and a few plates of pickles, but in the contemporary look, it is really very good. Plenty.

After all, many people rarely eat a few mouthfuls of meat all the year round. Just like Ji Yanzhi, a guy who likes to go up the mountain from time to time, can he eat meat every few times at home.

Zeng Yuan Dynasty, Zeng Yuanjun, and Zeng Hongwei are the names of the three brothers and sisters.

The three children, especially the oldest Zeng Yuanchao, are really well-behaved and sensible. When eating, I obediently only ate the rice in front of me. Unless Ji Yanzhi picked up the food for him, Zeng Yuanchao would not even be able to stretch his chopsticks. In the end, I saw that Ji Caoni loves to eat the overcooked crucian in the fish soup. He also took the initiative to pick Ji Caoni, and the level of care made Ji Yanzhi's attention, let alone Wang Chunhua's mother.

Because of making fish soup, Wang Chunhua disliked troublesome tricks, and always gave Ji Caoni the soup instead of eating the fish in it. But Ji Yanzhi had picked a few fishbones for Ji Caoni, but Ji Caoni felt sorry for Ji Yanzhi, who was a capable father, so she rarely asked for it. I only came to this home after assisting the DPRK, and I can observe Ji Caoni's preferences. I have to say that this is really a good and careful child.

Ji Yanzhi picked up a chopsticks for Zeng Yuanchao.

"Don't patronize my sister, eat by yourself."

While speaking, Ji Yanzhi gave Zeng Yuanjun and Zeng Hongwei a piece of chopsticks.

The three children all smiled shyly, "Thank you, uncle."

"Called Uncle?" Wang Chunhua, who had been silent for a long time, said in surprise, "Should I be called Dad?"

"You can call it whatever you want."

Due to the presence of the elders, Ji Yanzhi was too lazy to stare at death, but the faint tone made Wang Chunhua instantly understand that she seemed to have spoken.

Wang Chunhua smiled cowardly, and remedied: "Your Uncle Ji is right, you can call it anything."

Ji Yanzhi’s eyes were full of smiles. This Wang Chunhua is really...

"From now on, our family will have only your seven children, and you can live as you used to. Aid Korea, reinforcements, and Red Guards. The three of you will treat your uncle here as your own home. We will have a family of nine and live a good life."

Tears appeared in the eyes of the three children at the same time. They knew this Uncle Ji, and they knew that the kind person who had been unable to send money to them was Uncle Ji. Zeng Yuanchao, who was originally the eldest brother, had already thought about it. When his grandmother passed away, he entrusted his younger brother and sister to the village, and followed the engineering team that repaired the reservoir and dam. .

It’s just that my grandmother couldn’t rest assured of them, so she called the leader of the army cheekily, thinking that their three siblings might be adopted separately, but unexpectedly, when Uncle Ji learned that his father had passed away, he ran all the way from the north to the south and followed them first. Together, they took off their grandmother with a pair of masquerades and filial piety. After the funeral, they asked the cadres of their village to issue a certificate of adoption of the three siblings, and then took them back by train all the way.

Complete stranger environment, complete stranger, the three brothers and sisters of Zeng Yuan were not afraid, and even nervous, because they were afraid that the aunt of Uncle Ji’s house would not get along well with his brother/sister. But fortunately, Uncle Ji’s family members, including the slightly rounded aunt who looks a little nasty, are all getting along well.

Zeng Yuanchao wiped away tears, and said cautiously: "Uncle Ji, my brother and sister and I are very capable. Whether it is doing housework, or going up the mountain to gather herbs and dig wild vegetables, I and my brother and sister are used to doing it. "

"We are used to it too."

Ji Dabao said suddenly, "In addition to farming, our family only has to feed pigs, rabbits and chickens."

Old man Ji squinted and laughed, and couldn't help but guess his mouth and praised: "Good boys are good boys."

Holding her rice bowl and constantly stuffing pork stewed vermicelli in her mouth, Ji Mini rolled her eyes just right: "Have you heard Grandpa's compliment? Good boy, remember to go out and dig some wild vegetables tomorrow."

Ji Dabao, who was stuffing buns in his mouth, looked at Ji Mini incredulously, as if silently saying ‘how are you so cruel and ruthless’.

Ji Yanzhi smiled, too lazy to care about the relationship between the two children, and picked up a chopstick dish for the three brothers and sisters of Zeng Yuanchao. Ji Yanzhi took out the Maotai that he had bought successfully this time and gave them to Uncle Ji, Uncle Ji and Old Man Ji poured a glass of wine.

The three elders are all wine lovers. On weekdays, if you have some spare money to buy some rice wine made from coarse grains, you must secretly drink it, so as not to let the mothers in the family know that they perform eagle claw skills on the spot. At the sight of this mellow mouthfeel, it is said that the eyes of a bottle of Moutai of several yuan are all bright like light bulbs, and there is even a debate about the ownership of the remaining half of Moutai.

Ji Yanzhi was speechless, and after a long while, he had to take three more bottles of Moutai, one for each of them for them to take home and drink enough.

This meal is not finished until it gets dark.

The three old men who were drunk after sending away a bottle of Moutai, Wang Chunhua took a few children and started to clean up.

Ji Yanzhi cleaned the courtyard, boiled a pot of hot water, and bathed several boys in the courtyard.

"Aid Korea and reinforcements must not be used to sleeping in this northern Kang." Ji Yanzhi took out three sets of cotton-padded clothes and pants, and let the three children Zeng Yuanchao, Zeng Yuanjun, and Ji Dabao put them on by themselves. "You three brothers will sleep separately tonight. If you are not used to it, let's talk about sleeping together."

There are seven houses in which the family can live, which is very similar to the old house with a north facing south. There are three main rooms in the North House, two wing rooms on the east and west sides. There is also a backyard for stacking firewood, raising chickens, pigs and rabbits. The whole is in the word ‘day’, spacious and bright. Only when Mr. Ji, an old fellow who is increasingly dissatisfied with his second son, has the idea, he wants to take Mrs. Ji to live in a new house.

But now, there are seven houses, and one hall is used to place tables, chairs and benches, as a living room. Ji Yanzhi, Wang Chunhua, and more than a year-old Ji Xiaobao occupy a room on the left side of the main building of the North House, while Ji Mini takes Ji Caoni to live in the room on the right side of the main building of the North House. The size is quite good, plus Individuals are also suitable.

So Zeng Hongwei lived with sisters Ji Mini and Ji Caoni. The two children of Zeng Yuan Dynasty and Zeng Yuanjun lived in the left wing. Next door was Ji Dabao, who slept alone.

It's not that Ji Yanzhi didn't want to sleep with Ji Dabao, the two brothers Zeng Yuanzhi and Zeng Yuanjun, but Ji Dabao is a lazy guy who is just a bit more diligent when someone rushes him away with a stick. For the tasks that children in the country should do, such as picking wheat ears, digging wild vegetables, and hogweed, Ji Dabao did a lot of work. He only cleaned one of them. Ji Dabao really dragged him every time until Ji Yan couldn’t bear it. Only then did it.

Ji Yan disliked Ji Dabao's lack of hygiene, and naturally did not want his adopted son to sleep in the pigpen with him, so he made such an arrangement.

Now that summer is coming, the night is coming, and the croaking of frogs is surging up and down in the rice fields.

After the shower, the three boys got together and began to talk about catching frogs and loach while the rice was ripe to improve their lives.

"Frogs during this period are not fat enough. When the golden autumn comes, I will take two brothers to catch frogs and loach."

Ji Dabao danced with joy, making gestures and talking. The two brothers Zeng Yuan Korea and Zeng Yuanjun listened earnestly and agreed with each other very seriously. For a while, the three of them were very harmonious.

Ji Yanzhi glanced at it, curled his lips and smiled lightly, then ordered the children to go to bed early and get up early tomorrow.

"Why do you get up tomorrow morning?" Zeng Yuanjun asked Ji Dabao nervously.

"Running." Ji Dabao replied: "After Abba was demobilized and returned home, we asked us to run around the village every day to exercise. At the beginning Abba took the lead, and now I am the lead." At the end, Ji Dabao said in a tone. There is a little pride.

"We all get along well." Ji Dabao said again: "Minnie's mouth is just a little bit poisonous, but in fact, she has a good heart."

Thinking of Ji Mini's behavior of "bullying" Ji Dabao at the dinner table, Zeng aided the DPRK and Zeng aided troops inevitably smiled. This is not called mouth poison, but a sharp mouth.

The children spoke for a while, and then went back to their rooms to rest. There was no dream for a night, approaching the early morning, the rooster began to croak.

Ji Yanzhi and Wang Chunhua are the first to get up in this family. After freshening up, Wang Chunhua asked Ji Yanzhi, who was punching in the yard, what to eat this morning. Ji Yanzhi responded by cooking some millet porridge for raising people.

——This is considering the three new children.

Wang Chunhua thought of her helping Zeng Hongwei bath last night. She was so skinny that she was skinny. She didn’t say anything. She went straight into the kitchen, opened the cabinet for storing fine grains, and digged it up with a scoop made of big gourds. A full spoonful of millet.

I dug another half a spoonful of rice, washed them together, and boiled them in a large pot. For millet, if it is boiled separately, the soup is clear and the rice oil is not easy to boil. Therefore, when Wang Chunhua cooks millet porridge, he will always add rice. It tastes good too, with pickled vegetable bumps, it's full.

Several children started to get up one after another. Wang Chunhua was busy burning the fire, so she asked Ji Mini to wake up, and Ji Xiaobao, who was making fun of her, put on her clothes.

"What clothes to wear on such a hot day, don't you just wear a bellyband?"

With that said, Ji Mini did the same. She found a red bellyband that Cao Nier wore when she was young, and put it on Ji Xiaobao. Standing alone there holding a long bench, he and Zeng Hongwei fetched water and poured all the vegetables planted against the courtyard wall.

"I heard that the south is used to eating rice?" Ji Mini tried to find a word.

Zeng Hongwei smiled shyly, and replied shyly: "Yes, the staple food in the south is rice, just like noodles in the north."

"I want to eat wild vegetables?" Ji Mini asked casually, before Zeng Hongwei answered: "We will dig wild vegetables and pick up mushrooms after breakfast. It was a light rain yesterday, not too big, but a lot of mushrooms should have come out. ."

"Well, dig wild vegetables and pick up mushrooms."

Zeng Hongwei's eyes are very shiny, which is extremely inconsistent with her thin appearance.

Her mind, even her two brothers are very easy to guess, nothing more than to do something to prove that she is not eating plain rice. As for Ji Mini, not only her mouth is great, she is also great. Although she is not very old, she also guessed the feeling of anxiety under the fence, so she helped Zeng Hongwei and her two brothers to gradually integrate into the whole Jijia Village in her own way.

Very good mind. Now Ji Mini, under Ji Yanzhi's education, except for her mouth a little bit more powerful, her previous life's white-eyed wolf attribute shows no signs of production at all.

What's more, the reason why Ji Mini became a social flower in the red light district in the previous life is more because of her stepmother. In this life, Ji Yanzhi did not plan to find a job with an iron rice bowl that looks boundless to outsiders. Shang was honestly his farmer, and he didn't have much communication with that sweethearted stepmother.

Ji Yanzhi would not choose to use this life to avenge his previous life. In fact, as long as he lived well, his previous life's enemies would have the best revenge. Moreover, the biggest responsibility for the four children of the previous life who became the scourge of male thieves and female prostitution lies with the original owner Ji Dajun.

After having breakfast and sending a few children to get along well, Ji Yanzhi went to the county town. In addition to buying the daily necessities he needed, he also contacted his comrades who had ‘replaced’ their jobs for a while. When I came back, in addition to some more daily necessities that I spent money to buy, there were also money and tickets for raising children from my comrades-in-arms.

Ji Yanzhi did not refuse. It was because the money and tickets were not all given by close comrades, but other comrades who knew the old squad leader’s family affairs. How could Ji Yanzhi refuse and accept it at most. Then subsidize the comrades in other aspects, after all, no one's life will be better this year.

The lunch was cooked by a few children, and Wang Chunhua returned to her family home today after he left. I must have taken a lot of good things when I left, otherwise the children would not start whistling complaints as soon as he came back.

"It's normal for a married woman to have a family with her parents. What's more, if your mother carries your uncles and aunts on their backs, then they will be more close to her parents." Ji Yanzhi didn't think about anything less, but was very patient with Ji Dabao, especially Ji Minie said: "It's like Minnie. When you grow up and get married, do you have to sever ties with your natal family?"

Ji Mini's brows weren't frowning so tightly, but she was still a little unhappy. "But if you kiss your mother's family again, A-niang shouldn't take so many things back, and she still went to grandma's house while Abba went out to do errands without saying hello. What do you mean?"

"What do you mean, mother, anyway, this home is owned by Abba, and she can control only a small amount of things." Ji Yanzhi smiled and said: "Okay, Abba knows what you mean, you I'm afraid that if you pretend that you don't know about this, your mother-in-law will feel confident. Don't worry, your mother-in-law is just a bully who looks at pungent but doughy buns."

Ji Mini chuckled: "Anyway, I'm not strong. Why give my cousins ​​to my cousins? Even if I can't wear them anymore, isn't there a Cao Nier? There is also Red Guard. I am stronger than her. She wears mine. The clothes are suitable."

A gloomy light flashed in Ji Yanzhi's eyes, but he said: "Okay, eating, is it possible that your mother-in-law won't be able to stay in your natal house for a while, so you have to keep her at home to cook."

Ji Mini didn't dare to talk nonsense, and hurriedly greeted the three brothers and sisters of the Zeng family to sit on the kang table in the main room for dinner.

Ji Yanzhi ate a roasted sweet potato and another vegetable dumpling, and walked out with a touch of his mouth.

The three brothers and sisters of the Zeng family looked at each other, and finally Zeng Hongwei cautiously asked: "Minnie, aunt, is it unhappy that we are here."

——Look at what her horrible mother-in-law did. This time, Abba has to take care of it. In the future, I dare not dare to be a demon without seeing.

Ji Mini slandered secretly, but said on her face: "I haven't heard Abba say that this family is the master of Abba, so I can take it for granted before Aniang's turn."

Zeng Yuanjun: "Why did that uncle go out?"

"Do things." Ji Dabao replied without thinking about it: "Abba has always been like this. If you don't go to the county town, you will go up the mountain every day. Abba is a good hunter. Our family depends on Abba. Eat meat every now and then."

Zeng Yuanjun glanced at Zeng Yuanchao, Zeng Yuanchao shook his head at him. Uncle Ji’s going out was definitely not just to go hunting in the mountains, but more probably to teach Aunt Wang. After all, Aunt Wang suddenly packed up some good things and returned to her natal family, and it was the day after Uncle Ji adopted them. Her natal family is purely hitting Uncle Ji in the face.

As I once aided the DPRK, men are generally good-faced. Aunt Wang would be angry when he prevented Uncle Ji from coming to stage like this.

Hey, shouldn't he and his younger brother and sister come back with Uncle Ji?

But he really couldn't help it, and he didn't have the ability to pull his siblings healthy and grow up.

Ji Mini looked at the two brothers who were taciturn and spoke with insight. "I said two brothers, don't think too much about it. My mother-in-law is that stinky, not bad-hearted, she is easy to be a demon if she has a good life. But with my dad, it's impossible for mother-in-law. Be a god. Look, this time, A-niang is sure to roll back on her own, thinking that without the breast-feeding Little Treasure, A-ba can eagerly pick her up."

Ji Mini can consider Wang Chunhua’s mind to be accurate. Wang Chunhua didn’t bring Ji Xiaobao, who was still nursing, with a lot of good things back to her natal family. In addition to wanting to supplement her family’s house, she wanted Ji Yanzhi to pick her up in person, far away. I didn't think about her behavior, it was a slap in the face of Ji Yanzhi. So how could it be possible to pick her up in person according to Ji Yanzhi's virtue.

Ji Yanzhi went out after lunch. In addition to wanting to go up the mountain, he found a more familiar guy to bring a letter to Wangjiazhuang next door, so that Wang Chunhua had better stay in her family for a year and a half before returning. Even if he wants to come back, wait for him to marry a new wife.
