Chapter 563 A group of bastards

   "Drawing by Pingping? How old is she, is she good at writing and drawing?"

  The Xu Shixian brothers exclaimed for a while, and looked at Xu Jinping, who was coaxing the baby over there, with a look of disbelief.

  They saw the painting just now, but no one thought about Xu Jinping, thinking that whoever wanted it.

   "Yes, Pingping learned painting, calligraphy, and chess from Brother Chu. She started learning last winter vacation and has never stopped.

  I usually do my homework when I get home from school, and practice for a while after I finish.

   Practice more on Saturday and Sunday afternoons if you have nothing to do, and practice every day during summer vacation. What's wrong? "

  Xu Chenghou looked puzzled, his granddaughter is quite talented and hardworking in this area, it's just a painting, what else?

   "Old Mr. Chu can teach children calligraphy and painting?" Xu Shixiang's tone was a little eager, and he looked at his wife.

   "Yes, brother Chu knows a lot, what's wrong? You still don't believe what I say?"

  Xu Cheng gave Lao Wu a thick look, and looked at his virtue, what is it worth making such a fuss about.

   "No, no, Dad, how can I not believe your words.

  I mean, Pingping is very good, she has learned so much from Mr. Chu. "

  Xu Shixiang hurriedly apologized, how dare he question what his father said? Isn't that waiting to be cleaned up?

  Xu Chenghou's expression softened a little, and he looked up at the sons with disgust.

   "Keep your voice down, don't scare my grandson."

   This is all a fuss, as for it? bumpkin.

  Xu Shixiang and the others were a little embarrassed, they were really shocked.

  No one expected that Mr. Chu not only has superb medical skills, but also has a good research on piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

  Xu Shixiang's eyes were even more fiery, and he pursed and winked at his daughter-in-law.

  Chen Chunling over there sighed and could only nod.

  Xu Shixiang was very happy to see his wife nodding, so he chatted with Han Liwei and the others very enthusiastically.

  Ask about the situation of Han Liwei and his wife in the capital, and then inquire about Han Liwei's next arrangements.

  When they heard that Han Liwei was now at the regimental level, they were all amazed.

   It seems that Han Liwei made a lot of contributions back then, and he was able to reach this level in his early thirties.

  A group of brothers admired and envied Han Liwei, chatting more enthusiastically around Han Liwei.

  The men chat, while the women go to the kitchen to cook.

   Xu Jinfeng and Xu Jinxiu are both grown up, so they have to help pick and wash vegetables.

  Xu Jinping led a few younger sisters back to her vegetable garden, where she picked watermelons, cantaloupe, apricots, plums, and sand fruits to eat.

  The vegetable garden of Xu’s family is huge, and the hillsides on both sides are full of various fruit trees. You can pick whatever you want to eat.

  As for the boys, they couldn't stay idle.

  Xu Haibo led his younger brothers, went straight to the back woods, and ran to climb trees and knock down pine cones.

  At this time, the pine cone has not yet fully grown, and the seed kernels inside are very watery.

  But the children didn't care about that, they swished up the tree and hit more than a dozen towers to get down.

   Then in the open space in the woods, I got some dead branches of pine trees or something, pressed the tower down, and ignited directly.

  Thanks to this being the end of July, the woods are not so dry in summer, and the ground is covered with green grass, so at least there was no fire.

   Waiting for the firewood to burn out, the pine cones underneath are also cooked.

  So he pulled out the pine cone with a stick, kicked it standing upright, and the pine nuts flew around.

  Xu Haiyang, Xu Haiqing and the others quickly picked it up and ate it.

   "Why doesn't it smell delicious?" Xu Haiqing ate a few in a row, and couldn't help frowning.

  The pine nuts are tender and juicy. They have just grown and are not fragrant at all.

  For a foodie, this is unbearable.

   "Oh, it's good to eat some, I still choose.

   It’s not the elder brother and the second brother climbing the tree, can you eat it? I can really pick and choose. "

Beside   , Xu Haiyang glanced at the youngest cousin.

  A small child with a sharp mouth, is it delicious to eat? Why does he think it's delicious?

  Xu Haiqing curled his lips, "Brother Zhenwen and Brother Jianguo can also climb trees and pine cones. When I grow up, I will too."

  Boys are skinny, and climbing trees and houses is a daily operation.

  Xu Haiqing was still young, so everyone didn’t allow him to climb trees, but Han Zhenwen, Huang Shuqing, Yang Jianguo and others who played together could climb trees.

  Don't look at Xu Haiqing who is the youngest in the family, has no sense of presence, and is suppressed by her sister all day long.

  Leaving his sister, this kid is not easy to provoke, his tongue is quite fierce, and he always speaks in a hurry.

  Xu Haiyang was so choked by his little cousin that he simply turned around and left, not hesitating to talk to the little boy.

  Xu Haiqing looked indifferent, and turned around to find his brother.

  Xu Haiyuan is actually not interested in these things, but his brothers rarely come back, so it is not easy for him to leave the guests behind and go to study with his teacher.

  What can I do? I can only be patient and play with them.

  Seeing Xu Haiqing approaching, Xu Haiyuan quickly patted the ashes on his younger brother.

   "It doesn't matter what you eat, pay attention to your clothes, be careful not to get your clothes dirty, my mother will smoke."

   This guy, eating too much, made dust all over his body, as well as his hands, he was really convinced.

  Xu Haiqing just laughed, no matter what his brother said, he would not refute, and even gave the pine nuts in his hand to his brother to eat.

  Xu Haiyuan glanced at his younger brother's little black hand, took it with disgust, and put his mouth on it.

   "It's too early, this pine nut kernel has just grown up, it hasn't grown yet, it's not fragrant."

  At this time, hitting pine nuts is purely a scourge, and it is boring to eat.

   "Well, I said it was not good just now, and Brother Haiyang still said me."

  Finally someone agrees with him, Xu Haiqing nodded again and again, his brother is better, as he thought.

   "Come on, talk less, eat more if you like it, and eat less if you don't like it."

  Xu Haiyuan rubbed his younger brother's head, and whispered to him.

   After all, it was the elder brothers who worked hard to climb the tree and beat it down, and then cooked it. No matter whether it is delicious or not, you can't say it in front of others.

   "Oh, I got it." Xu Haiqing nodded, and went to pick up pine nuts and chewed for fun.

   There is nothing to eat here. The pine nuts are not fragrant, but they are better than nothing.

  Besides, he has to show some face for the hard work of his brothers, right?

   A group of brats worked in the forest for a long time, regardless of whether the pine nuts were fragrant or not, until the last dozen or so towers were all eaten up.

   It happened that the charcoal fire in the fire was almost lit, and there were still some sparks left.

  These stinky boys just **** and watered it out, and then they came out of the woods and went home to eat.

  As soon as I entered the house, I saw a few girls washing melons and fruits.

  So this one took a piece of watermelon, that one took a cantaloupe, and didn’t care about those, just picked it up and ate it.

  Half-sized children eat poor old people. For such a big child, the stomach is like a bottomless pit.

  Anything can be put in it, so what are those pine nuts? Not enough teeth.

  So Xilihulu, several people actually ate most of the pot of melons and fruits.

   "You guys, you ran away when you went to pick melons. Pingping and the others picked them up and washed them. You can eat them better than the other."

  Xu Jinfeng came out with a basin of water and splashed it in the yard. Looking at the group of younger brothers who could eat more than pigs, he was speechless for a while.
