After unlocking the material space, I raised my younger siblings in a farmhouse.

Chapter 231 Younger Brothers and Sisters

When Lin Chu saw that there was no extra space, he put the backpack on his back, jumped onto the roof, and sat directly on the bamboo.

After sitting firmly, she patted the bamboo twice and said to Mr. Huang, "Okay, let's go home."

"Okay." Grandpa Huang, who was sitting in the front seat of the cart, heard Lin Chuyi's words, agreed and whipped the ox. The ox cart started slowly and headed towards the Lin family's yard.

On the way back, Lin Chuyi started by asking Grandpa Huang about the progress of his fruit tree planting.

"Did anyone go home to get the fruit tree seedlings just now?"

When Grandpa Huang heard Lin Chuyi's question, he nodded subconsciously. Then he suddenly realized that Lin Chuyi might not have seen his action, so he added, "They are here. There are quite a few people here. They are brought here by the head of the village himself. They took away 50 saplings from home. They said they would come back tomorrow morning to get the rest."

"Okay, I got it. When we get home, water the remaining fruit tree seedlings. Don't water too much, just keep the soil moist."

"Okay." Grandpa Huang had planted trees at home before, so he had no objection to Lin Chuyi's arrangement and responded quickly.

"Were you not at home just now to go and see the pepper fields?"

"Yes, there were some problems with the peppers grown by the Fusheng family. They didn't know how to solve it, so they asked me to go over and take a look."

"Oh? Is it a serious problem?"

"It's not serious, it's been resolved."

"That's good."

……

Uncle Huang was doing two things at once, answering Lin Chuyi's questions while driving the cart. In the middle of this question and answer, the ox cart slowly drove into his yard.

As soon as Lin Chuyi jumped off the ox cart, Lin Wuyou, who had been waiting for a long time, bumped into her.

"Second sister, you're back! I missed you so much!" Before he finished speaking, Lin Wuyou had already thrown himself into Lin Chuyi's arms.

Lin Chuyi caught Lin Wuyou steadily, but deliberately said, "Ouch, I'm about to be knocked apart. Let me see if little Wuyou has gained weight again."

As soon as Lin Chuyi said this, the smile on the face of the little person in his arms instantly disappeared. Lin Wuyou pouted his mouth high and glared at Lin Chuyi, "Second sister is bad, I will ignore you."

As Lin Wuyou was about to leave Lin Chuyi's arms, Lin Chuyi held him in his arms and wouldn't let him go.

Lin Chuyi smiled and slowly squatted down, looking directly at Lin Wuyou's angry little face.

The hands that were around Lin Wuyou opened up, and with a clear purpose, he pinched Lin Wuyou's little face.

After these days of recuperation, Lin Wuyou has grown two sizes bigger than when Lin Chuyi first met her. Her originally skinny face has now become chubby and feels good to pinch.

"Tsk, I'm not wrong. Look at that chubby little face. Did you eat up all the meat in the house when I was away?"

"No! Let me go, it hurts." A small bump appeared between Lin Wuyou's brows.

"I won't let go unless you tell the truth." Lin Chuyi ignored Lin Wuyou's hands that kept pulling at her, and rubbed Lin Wuyou's little face unscrupulously.

"I'm telling you, I only ate a little bit, just a little bit, dear second sister, you have to believe me!" Lin Wuyou looked at Lin Chuyi sincerely, and afraid that she didn't believe him, he made a little bit gesture with his two chubby fingers.

"Really?" Lin Chuyi looked doubtful.

Lin Wuyou nodded affirmatively, "Really."

"Okay, I'll trust you for once. Where's my little brother? Why can't I see him?"

"He is doing his homework in the study."

"Second sister, I'm here."

The voices of Lin Wuyou and Lin Cheng sounded at the same time. Lin Cheng was indeed doing homework in the study room before. He heard the noise in the yard and knew that his second sister had returned, so he came out of the study room.

Seeing that his second and third sisters were looking at him, Lin Cheng felt a little embarrassed and gave them a shy smile.

Lin Chuyi smiled back, "Our little Cheng is sensible. He knows to finish the homework assigned by the teacher first when he comes back."

Lin Chuyi praised Lin Cheng and then turned the conversation to Lin Wuyou: "Little Wuyou, the homework assigned by the teacher should be the same. Have you finished your homework?"

“Not yet.” Lin Wuyou’s eyes were a little evasive. “I thought about your return, second sister, so I wanted to come out to greet you.”

"Oh." Lin Chuyi saw through it but didn't say anything. "Well, Second Sister is very happy about your welcome. Now that the welcome is over, shouldn't you go and do your homework?"

"No, second sister, I haven't seen you for a long time. I want to have a good talk with you." Lin Wuyou said coquettishly.

Lin Chuyi didn't buy it. She smiled and said, "I'm going to stay at home for a long time. We can talk later. It's still light now, so go do your homework. Otherwise, it's easy to hurt your eyes if you light a lamp to do your homework at night."

"I've decided to cook tonight and show you my cooking skills. When you finish your homework, my dinner should be almost ready. Then we can have dinner together as a family."

"Okay." The brother and sister answered in unison.

"Well, go ahead." Lin Chuyi smiled as he watched the two of them enter the study, and then began to deal with the things he brought back.

She first took the basket containing the prickly chestnuts off her back and handed it to Madam Shen who had just walked out of the kitchen.

"Madam Shen, please help me peel the hairy chestnuts in here. I will use them to make chestnut roast chicken later."

"Yes." Madam Shen took the backpack handed over by Lin Chuyi and went to the kitchen to busy herself.

Lin Chuyi looked at Aunt Huang who was bleeding the chicken again, "Aunt Huang, after you finish processing these two chickens, chop the fatter one into pieces, add two slices of ginger, and then add water to the casserole to make soup. Put the other one aside first, I will cook it later. Oh, don't simmer the rice, we'll have bamboo tube rice tonight."

"Okay, but, young lady, what is bamboo tube rice?" Aunt Huang's face was full of confusion.

"Bamboo tube rice, as the name suggests, is rice cooked in a bamboo tube. The method is very simple. If you want to learn, you can watch me cook it later."

"Hey, okay."

Aunt Huang had already bled the chicken. She put the chicken back into the basin and happily walked into the kitchen carrying the basin, intending to scoop up hot water to scald the chicken's feathers so that she could pluck them later.

Lin Chuyi and Grandpa Huang unloaded the bundled bamboo poles from the ox cart, untied the hemp ropes tied to them, and spread the bamboo poles flat in the yard.

After laying out the bamboo poles, Lin Chuyi walked into the kitchen, took out a sufficient amount of glutinous rice from the rice bag, washed it clean, and soaked it in water. Then he took out some dried mushrooms, scallops, and dried shrimps, put them in a basin, scooped out hot water from the pot, and poured it on top to speed up the soaking process of these ingredients.
