"Mother-in-law! I heard that the family is going to be divided into households. Is this true?"

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Liu family, Wang Hongying, asked her mother-in-law who was busy feeding chickens in the yard with concern. Except for the eldest daughter, her five children can help with some easy work, and the others are not laborers who can go to the fields to work. If the fields are all divided into households, how can her husband and wife grow up?

Her mother-in-law didn't even raise her head, and she was a little impatient in her tone: "When the family was separated yesterday, didn't your father-in-law understand it! F County in the north had already been divided into households, and they lived better than when they were collectively used to do so. Now they are learning everywhere and they have to divide the fields into households."

The mother-in-law of the Liu family knew that the eldest daughter-in-law was worried that her family had more children and less labor, so Xin Tianxin would not come at that time. Originally, she wanted to not divide the family, and took her eldest son's family for a few years, and waited for a few children to grow up and could help with the work. Unfortunately, the old man hated the eldest daughter-in-law who only gave birth to a grandson, and then they were all girls. He gritted his teeth when he saw those granddaughters and wanted to strangle a few. If he hadn't been working in a group, he would have separated his eldest son's family long ago, so where could he wait until now?!

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Liu family shut up in frustration, picked up the big broom made of bamboo seedlings leaning against the chicken coop, and walked to the top of the yard to start sweeping. She had just swept a while when she heard her mother-in-law shouting in anger at the gate of the yard: "You damn girl, why did you bring someone's child to your house? Isn't this person crazy to look for a child?"

Hearing this, he knew that her daughter had caused trouble. She hurriedly threw down the big broom in her hand and ran to the gate of the yard. She saw her little girl who should have placed goose behind the farmhouse. She stood at the door with her head down, with a bamboo basket at her feet, and a baby wrapped in an adult jacket lying in the basket.

Her little daughter is only five years old this year, and she can't do anything else, so she can only help her family put geese and dig wild vegetables to feed the chickens. Unexpectedly, the child went out early and dragged a child back! The eldest daughter-in-law of the Liu family blinked hard, and she thought, maybe she was dazzled.

Like a landlord, the little girl standing at the door with her head down lowered and lowered, she was named Liu Taoxiang, the youngest daughter of the Liu family's eldest daughter-in-law Wang Hongying. In the morning, as usual, she drove the three geese from the house to the big water moat behind the farm to eat water plants, and she carried a basket to find wild vegetables in the rape ditch beside her. In the corner of the ground, on the mound of soil that was specially burning in the team, she saw Gu Qingling who couldn't bear to drown and put it on the mound. She put the baby in the basket, but the goose didn't care about it and half dragged the basket home.

Grandma scolded her in a panic. Although Taoxiang looked pitiful with her head down, she was not afraid at all. She knew at a young age that no matter how angry her grandma was, she would only scold her loudly and rarely hit them. Seeing her mother come out, she raised her head and grinned and smiled at her mother: "Mom! Look, I have a younger brother. I picked up my younger brother and came back. The veteran said three times. Grandpa was happy and he would not hate us."

Wang Hongying ran out with tears in a daze, and grandma also asked her granddaughter to tell her that she was sad. She pressed her throat and carried the baby out of the basket.

"Taoxiang! You really picked up this hairy child. Didn't he put it on the field and go to work by himself?"

Grandma's meaning is: This child may be the adult digging wild vegetables in the field, putting the child on the field, and then taking the child home after the wild vegetables is dug.

Women here take their children to the ground, unlike some places where they will make a basket or a quilt carrying them to carry their children on their backs. Here, women take their children to the ground, and usually put their children on the ridges for their children to play on their own. They work in the fields while looking up at the children on the ridges from time to time. Therefore, Grandma Liu's family had this question. Before the time to strictly enforce family planning, no one's children would be thrown away casually. Just like when Taoxiang was born, her grandfather was so angry that she never thought about throwing the child away.

Taoxiang is already five years old and can understand what grandma meant, so she shook her head: "There is no one in the field, and there is no one in the field next to her. If you don't believe me, go and ask Daqinzi who set up the goose with me, and she saw it too!"

Wang Hongying didn't care whether the child was picked up, because she hadn't cried or made a fuss for so long, and she didn't react at all, and she was a little worried. She stretched out her index finger and put it under the child's nose and tried it, saying to her mother-in-law: "Mother-in-law! I'm afraid this child is not very good. Go to the midwife's house here at Aunt Jiang and ask her who has delivered her to her in the past two days. I quickly washed the child, and after washing it, I took it to Darong and asked Darong to feed him milk."

The eldest daughter-in-law was right. Her mother-in-law handed the child to the eldest daughter-in-law and reminded: "I took out the small clothes and diapers that Taoxiang used, washed and dried for a few days. It was originally prepared for Mingfeng's second daughter-in-law, but now it can be used for this child. I went to Mujiagang to find Lao Jiang to ask!"

After talking to the eldest daughter-in-law, Grandma Liu shouted to Taoxiang again: "Hurry up and go to the water moat to see the geese. If the geese are lost, I will not peel you off!"

Taoxiang originally wanted to see her mother take a bath for her little brother, but when she heard her grandmother say she looked at the goose, she remembered that she still had a great responsibility on her shoulders! She quickly dragged the basket and ran to the water moat behind the village in panic.

Wang Hongying carried the child to boil water. She was not happy because Taoxiang said it was her younger brother. It was not her child she gave birth to. So what if it was a man? My father-in-law didn't like Taoxiang at the beginning, and someone suggested to exchange Taoxiang for his own boy with the Liu family. Her father-in-law almost vomited the foam on his face. It can be imagined that her father-in-law likes boys only, and not any boy would want it.

When he took off the strands wrapped around the child's clothes to bathe the child, he realized that he was a girl. When he was bathing the child, the child finally made a faint "mia!mia!" sound like a newborn kitten. Wang Hongying's heart was thrust by the pitiful cry. While scrubbing her gently, she stroked the child with her palms, muttering: "Wash it clean, white and fat, the most pleasant thing!"

Zhu Chengrong is Wang Hongying's cousin's sister-in-law. The two families have more than five wards, but they all live in a village, which is closer than the one near the house living in the distance. She saw her cousin's sister-in-law coming over with a child with a quilt, and asked curiously: "Sister-in-law Hongying! Why did she give birth to a child without seeing you? Are you too afraid of people?"

"What are you talking nonsense? This is not what I gave birth to. My Taoxiang put goose in the water moat behind and brought the child who was placed on the ground back. My mother-in-law went to ask Aunt Jiang and asked her. She knew who the child was from, so she sent it to her. I'm here to ask for you for breastfeeding for this child! Do you have it now?"

"Yes! My son has eaten it for a while. It's just a little bit high now. You hurry up and I'll feed her."

Wang Hongying carefully transferred the child to Zhu Chengrong and reminded: "This child doesn't look very good. When you feed it, you can see how excited the child is. If it is strong, it's a big deal if it is not strong, but it's troublesome! I just fed her two small spoons of boiled water, but she didn't drink much, and she had to tossed for a long time!"

Zhu Chengrong looked down at the child for a while and then looked up and said to his cousin-in-law: "It's okay! He may not be able to eat milk at the beginning. After a few slaps, he is so excited to wrap his milk now!"

Wang Hongying sighed relieved, "That's good! If I don't raise a kitten or puppy well, I feel uncomfortable. If this child is not raised well, I will feel guilty."

"Sister-in-law Hongying! You don't have to worry. As long as the aunt asks who the child is, it will be fine if she sends it back. I think this child will be fine for three or four days."

"Hey! I hope this child is not abandoned and denied!"
