Such a thing is just like even the old man mentioned it in the letter, even Man'er would not tell it in front of Erya's grandmother and Pan. She can only say that everything is fine.

"Your Erlang's wife, count the month, is it time to have a child?" Erya's grandmother asked Lian Man'er again. Women's gossip nature never weakens with age, but becomes stronger and stronger. "Looking at her walking on the road with her big belly, we are all worried about her."

"My mother will decide for her in front of me, and she said it will take two months to give birth." Lian Man'er said, "It should be quite good to follow what my master said in his letter."

Even the old man did not mention Zhao Xiu'e in the letter. The so-called lack of news is good news. It seems that Zhao Xiu'e should be in good condition.

"That's good, Erlang's wife, it seems quite solid." Erya's grandmother said.

"Sister." Xiaoqi was at the end of the kang and called Lian Man'er to look at the cat.

Lian Man'er got off the kang and walked to the end of the kang.

The big cat from Erya's house was eating shrimp-skin bibimbap, and it was delicious. The kitten was placed on a mat by Erya and Xiaoqi, and was meowing while grinding.

The screams made people feel soft when they hear them.

The big cat in Erya's family is a raccoon cat, and this kitten almost completely inherits the appearance of the cat's mother. From the head to the tip of the tail, the fur color is dark gray and dark, but the chin, belly and limbs are snow-white.

The kitten turned around for a while and then clumped his body and lay down with his tail in his arms. It was furry, like a ball of wool.

Lian Man'er reached out and gently touched the kitten's back, giving it a hair. The kitten meowed twice, then raised his claws and grabbed Lian Man'er's hand. Lian Man'er couldn't help but pinch the soft meat pad on its soles.

The kitten meowed again and took back his paws.

Lian Man'er reached under the kitten's chin and scratched it gently.

The kitten did not dodge, and looked at Lian Man'er with faint eyes and narrowed his eyes. While making a gurgling sound from his throat, he raised his head so that Lian Man'er could tickle it better.

Lian Man'er clenched her fist secretly. Sure enough, she wanted to conquer a cat, whether it was a big cat or a small cat. This trick of scratching is always effective.

After playing for a while, Lian Man'er said goodbye to Er Ya and Er Ya's grandmother and carried the kitten into the basket she brought. A thick and soft cushion was laid in the basket. The cushion was made by Lian Man'er himself, using a fine cloth head at the edges and corners, which were connected piece by piece, and the cushion was filled with chicken feathers and cotton. When the kitten lies up, it is definitely warm and comfortable.

Walking all the way to the shop. Lian Man'er was carrying a basket and the kitten meowed inside. After leaving the cat's mother, facing the strange world, it needed a process of adaptation. However, this process would be very fast.

Xiaoqi almost hung it on the basket, with both eyes and hands reluctant to leave the kitten.

"Sister, let's give it a name." Xiaoqi discussed with Lian Man'er.

"Well, I should give a name." Lian Man'er nodded. "Then it's called Dahua."

"Big flowers, big flowers."

Xiaoqi kept screaming, and then the little cat Dahua also responded with meow. Lian Man'er couldn't help laughing secretly. Her heart was soft.

Back at the shop, Lian Man'er entered the inner room, took off her shoes and put the basket on the kang, and placed it on the kang where the sun could be basked. Xiao Qi also wanted to go to the kang, but Lian Man'er stopped him.

"Don't you care about big flowers? Then it will be yours from now on." Lian Man'er told Xiao Qi.

Xiaoqi was young and really wanted Dahua, so he agreed foolishly. Lian Man'er laughed in her heart and asked Xiaoqi to prepare a food bowl for Dahua, which is two porcelain bowls. One was just a cat rice and the other was water.

In addition, there is another important thing.

"Just yesterday, I asked the shallow wooden basin that I made from the third uncle. You can make some clean fine sand shop and then bring it in." Lian Man'er told Xiao Qi.

"Oh." Xiaoqi agreed happily and ran out. After a while, he walked in with a wooden basin filled with fine sand.

Lian Man'er took the wooden basin and placed it on the kang against the wall. Then, she carried the small cat's big flower out of the basket and placed it in the wooden basin.

"...This will be your special toilet from now on," Lian Man'er touched Dahua's head and told it, "In this room, if you dare to pee on the kang and pull it on the kang, you will be spanked, don't you hear it."

Dahua used her claws to dig the fine sand and meowed twice.

"Looking at how well-behaved the big flower, I said it and it remembered it." Lian Man'er smiled and placed the big flower on the kang to make it familiar with the environment.

Nowadays, the big flowers are still small and have to be kept on the kang, so they need to prepare fine sand basins for it. Cats are born to love cleanliness and almost do not need to be trained, and they will not urinate or defecate everywhere. This fine sand basin is also temporary. When the big flowers grow up, they can easily jump from the kang to the ground and walk out of the house. At that time, they will naturally choose to urinate and defecate in a more hidden place outside, and there is no need to worry at all.

Now, the work of changing the little cat's fine sand every day is left to Xiaoqi.

"Have the cat been brought back?" Zhang asked when he came in from outside and saw Lian Man'er and Xiao Qi sitting on the kang, teasing a little raccoon cat.

"Yes." Lian Man'er nodded and agreed.

"No, it's a tiger-headed and treacherous, it's pretty good." Zhang sat on the edge of the kang, looked at the big flower carefully, and asked, "Is it a man's cat or a female cat?"

The farmers' families do not call cats male or female cats, but call cats male and female cats.

"It's Langmao." Xiaoqi rushed to say, "Mom, our cat has a name. My sister gave it to her and it's called Dahua."

"Oh, big flower, it's a good name."

After lunch, Zhang specially steamed the rice more softer than usual. Lian Man'er put half a bowl of rice in a bowl, mixed it with fish soup and shrimp skin that had not been added with salt. He watched it cool and felt warm, and then gave it to Dahua.

The little cat, Dahua, smelled the fishy smell, kept meowing at Lian Man'er. When Lian Man'er put the bowl in front of it, it pierced its head into the bowl.

Seeing the delicious food of big flowers, Lian Man'er felt relieved.

Cats are very independent animals. The kitten leaves the cat's mother and will quickly adapt to the new environment in order to survive.

After breakfast that day, Lian Shouxin told Zhang that he would go to the old house later to help Lian Shouli cut cigarettes.

"It's time to cut it, his third uncle agreed that he won't go to work at noon. I will help him. He can finish cutting it at noon and still be hung on it." Lian Shouxin said.

Mr. Lian planted a garden of dry tobacco. Before leaving, he gave instructions to Lian Shouli and Lian Shouxin several times to take good care of him. He pointed at this for the next year.

This season is the best time to cut and dry cigarettes. If you delay a few more days, it will be too late.

"You don't need to take care of the house today?" Zhang asked.

"No need." Lian Shouxin said that he had agreed with the supervisor, and he didn't have to watch what work he wanted to do this morning.

Lian Man'er's house built this house with a relatively large project, and even keeps trustworthy things, so he couldn't watch it all the time, so he hired a reliable supervisor.

"Okay, then you can go and help the boss." Zhang said.

"Xiao Qi, are you going with your father?" Lian Shouxin changed his clothes, took a knife, and did not go out directly. Instead, he asked Xiao Qi. Looking at his tone and expression, he clearly hoped that Xiao Qi would go with him.

Xiaoqi was a sensible child. After agreeing, he got off the kang.

Cutting cigarettes is not just about cutting them off. It takes a lot of time to dry them on the rack.

"Dad, I'll go with you too." Lian Man'er also got off the kang and said.

"I'll go too." Goro also said.

"Okay, okay, go, go." Even Shouxin was so happy that he could no longer hide the smile on his face.

When Lian Man'er and the others arrived at the old house, Lian Shouli had already cut cigarettes in the garden. Lian Shouxin hurriedly walked over, took a knife, and started cutting with Lian Shouli.

Zhao and Lian Ye'er were also in the garden. On the ground beside them, there were piles of hemp ropes and softened Malan.

A few children walked over.

"Let's work together, we can do it quickly." Lian Man'er said.

Lian Shouli and Lian Shouxin cut the tobacco leaves with a knife, and a dry tobacco pole of about one inch must be left on each leaf. This is for the convenience of picking up and drying. Lian Man'er and a few are responsible for putting the cut tobacco leaves together, aligning the tobacco poles, then tie them tightly with Malan and stacking them together.

After Lian Shouli and Lian Shouxin cut off the dry tobacco, they drilled wooden stakes around the garden and set up wooden racks. Then, they roughly twisted the two hemp ropes into a thick hemp rope and tied them to the wooden racks.

Then, put the tightly tied pairs of dry tobacco on the rope. After drying for a while, the dew is attached in the morning and evening, and then exposed to the sun, the green tobacco leaves will eventually become reddish-brown, so the dry tobacco will be considered to be sunburned.

The same-grown drying tobacco will taste good when dried. If it is not drying well, it will not only taste bad when dried, but it will also be particularly easy to turn off the heat.

The good dry tobacco that is dried can be sold at a very good price at the market.

When drying dry tobacco, you should receive dew, but you should not get rain. If the weather is too cold, you should also put all the tobacco into the house to keep warm at night. Only when the temperature warms up the next day can you take it out and dry it. When drying, you should also pay attention to turning it so that the tobacco leaves can evenly receive dew and dry it.

In short, drying the dry tobacco in this garden is not an easy task.

"These dry tobaccos, not to mention a year, or two or three years, are enough to smoke."

It was almost noon that they packed up all the dry tobacco in the garden, and even called Ye'er to clean water to ask everyone to wash their hands.

"Uncle Lian Si," at this moment, a little monk came from outside panting, "Go back quickly, something big happened."
