Chapter 55: The Child
With the arrival of the tiger girl, sleeping has also become a problem, originally this small kang the size of a bed, Zhang's sleeping with peach blossoms is okay, but now there is one more person, it is a little crowded.
There is a big kang by the window in front, after dinner, Zhang's hugged the branch and burned the kang, looking at a little less firewood, it is only enough for seven or eight days, not out of the New Year you have to go out to collect firewood, otherwise this winter can not pass, even spring can not pass.
Zhang sat on the kang and sighed, but she and Peach Blossom picked up those firewood in the cold, how could Westinghouse be reluctant to look at it?
The tiger girl and the peach blossom bed on the bed, the small fire kang also burned the fire, lying in the warm quilt, just opened her eyes and fell asleep for a while, the peach blossom originally did not like to cover a quilt with others.
I used to build one with Zhang's family, but it was also because Zhang's quilt was too thin and there was almost no cotton, how could I stand it in such a cold room.
Moreover, in terms of identity, how can Zhang also be Peach Blossom's biological mother, with this relationship, Peach Blossom hints that she accepts it.
is different from the tiger girl, although the tiger girl is also a child, she is also an outsider.
There are only two quilts in the house, and Peach Blossom knows that she wants to cover one alone, so Zhang's has no way to cover it, so she can only endure it, turning over and over in bed for a long time, and Peach Blossom's eyelids are heavy.
In a daze, I only knew that Zhang was sitting and didn't wake up, and I didn't know anything, and when I woke up, it was already bright, and I was still awakened by freezing, and I saw that the whole quilt was wrapped around the tiger girl.
Peach Blossom didn't pull it out a few times, so she could only sit up, Zhang came in from the outhouse, saw her daughter sitting, and said with a smile, "Peach Blossom is awake." ”
"Mother, the tiger girl snatched the quilt. "Peach Blossom said no, it can't be angry.
She didn't like to cover a quilt with others, but now that the quilt has been snatched away, how can she not be angry.
Zhang looked at the tiger girl who was still asleep, and lowered his voice, "Be quiet, the tiger girl is pitiful enough, she has no father, and she doesn't have a mother's pain, and she is so sensible, Peach Blossom wants to let her sister more, do you hear?"
Zhang took his daughter out of the bed, took the padded jacket and put it on her, and combed two small bags on her head, "Today's New Year, my mother will go to your grandfather's house in a while, will you eat with Sister Huniu?"
The noodles at home are not enough for three people to make dumplings, Peach Blossom knows that Zhang's has borrowed noodles, the Wang family has an ox cart, and can grind noodles, which is considered a good condition in the village, and the people are good, and Zhang's can borrow noodles is their family.
After Zhang's left, the tiger girl woke up, and Peach Blossom sat on the big kang under the window and waited for the tiger girl, and when she saw that she was awake, she beckoned, "Sister, come and eat sweet potatoes." ”
Hu Niu didn't see Zhang's left and right, "Where's the aunt?"
"My mother went to Grandpa Wang's house. ”
The tiger girl climbed on the kang, and the peach blossom took one of the big sweet potatoes and handed them to the tiger girl, only two people were at home, and the tiger girl did not pretend to be empathetic, let alone modest, picked up the skin and ate it.
For the New Year, the Westinghouse has already gotten up, and when I sit in the house, I can still hear Cheng Lin's cheers, and from time to time I can hear the laughter of Mrs. Cheng, the peach blossoms are so envious, Mrs. Cheng's temperament is too lonely, there is no interest, and no one can hand it over.
"Let's go to that house. The tiger girl ate all the sweet potatoes, licked her fingers, and glanced at the sweet potatoes in the bowl.
Peach Blossom was already shocked when she heard her words, and was speechless when she saw the speed at which she ate and the way she stared at the sweet potato.
On the other hand, Hu Niu is a child after all, how can she ask Hu Niu to be the same as her.
"Peach Blossom, Peach Blossom, I have firecrackers, let's play together. Speaking of everyone, Cheng Lin pushed open the door and walked in.
The tiger girl jumped off the kang first, "Let's play together." ”
Cheng Lin tilted his head to look at her, and then snorted coldly, "Tiger girl, don't you like to play with Lin Kuan? I don't play with you, I only play with peach blossoms." ”
Lin Kuan is the son of Widow Lin, since the man who beat Widow Lin died, and there was no in-law and mother's family to rely on, Widow Lin let her son take her surname.
Widow Lin has a bad temperament, and she is a water-based flower, she has pampered her son since she was a child, Lin Kuan is also a little overlord in this village, she always causes trouble, and there is no one who has quarreled between Widow Lin and the people in the village.
Cheng Lin is two years younger than Lin Kuan, he was beaten by Lin Kuan, and on weekdays, Lin Kuan in the city is only the best with the tiger girl, so over time, Cheng Lin also hates the tiger girl.
The tiger girl is not a deity, how do you know who Lin Kuan is, but listening to the tone of the kid in front of her, she also understands a little.
It's just a small conflict between a few children, and this little thing can't help her.
"Lin Kuan didn't have any firecrackers. ”
When Cheng Lin heard this, his eyes lit up, where did the child have any hatred, and he didn't remember that he was here to find Peach Blossom, so he pulled the tiger girl and ran out, "Let's go, I'll show you now." ”
It wasn't until the two of them went out that Peach Blossom shook her head, not only did she not get angry, but she breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't like those children's things, and she was thinking about how to make money.
