Chapter 9: The porridge that disappears as soon as you pee
After turning around, Yuan Si had a general understanding of the current living environment, but as this understanding deepened, her brows became more and more wrinkled.
This is really not an ideal place to live, Lijia Village is located in a plain area, there are no mountains and no water around, and everyone lives on the production of the land. And because there are few people around, there are few people here who can eat enough.
Seeing this situation, Yuan Si felt that her plan did not seem to be so easy to achieve. Where can she find food without mountains and water?
Just when Yuan was thinking about worrying, she happened to meet a few villagers who came back from the field with hoes.
"Yo, isn't this Xiaosi, I heard that you only came back from the city yesterday, why did you come out today to earn a share of work, and your mother didn't say that she felt sorry for you. ”
"That's right, why did you come back after you went to the city to enjoy your happiness, the city is much better than our village, right?"
People here have known each other for several lifetimes, and the whole village can know what is going on the next day, so everyone knows that Li Yuansi was sent to the second sister's house in the city. No, now when you meet her on the road, you can't help but ask such a question.
"Well, it's back, not so good. Yuan Si said honestly.
But basically no one believed this answer, everyone thought she was crazy, and the city was not good, so what was good? Is their village poor?
"Oh, you kid has a lot of eyes, don't worry, even if it's a good brother, I won't rob you. ”
"Let's go, it's noon, hurry up and go to the cafeteria, or there will be no food in a while." ”
Along the way, the adults laughed and laughed and laughed at Yuan Si, Yuan Si remained silent, and when she saw that she had arrived at the cafeteria, she spread her little feet and ran in. It's so boring to be around these guys.
Last year, the crops in the fields did not grow very well, the grain output was seriously reduced, and due to various reasons, the public grain was still more than in previous years, and this caused the peasants to not have enough to eat after planting the land for a year.
The big canteen is now struggling to support, looking forward to the summer harvest of grain, or the canteen will be cut off.
But that's it, there is nothing to eat in it, and the big canteen eats five meals a day, which is set according to the time when the members go to work.
It's April now, the general members have to work in the field at five o'clock in the morning, and this time will be early in the summer, and the canteen will start cooking at five o'clock, generally gruel, which is boiled and sent to the ground with a bucket, and the second meal is more than eight o'clock in the morning, and the canteen staff also need to send the porridge to the ground. There is no need to send the lunch at noon, the members will come back to eat by themselves, and the porridge will be delivered again at about three o'clock in the afternoon, and the last meal will be eaten in the canteen after the members are completely off work at five o'clock.
It's noon, and everyone needs to go to the cafeteria to eat by themselves, and when they go to dinner, they will be hungry.
Yuan Si entered the big cafeteria, and after a little head turned around, she saw her mother, shook off her little feet and ran over.
"Why are you here, hurry up, I've brought all your food back. The old lady pushed a bowl of green porridge in front of her in front of her and motioned for her to drink it quickly. "Your mother and I just scooped it at the bottom of the pot, it's thick, drink it quickly, don't let people see it. She said and turned sideways to help her daughter block the point.
She works in the big canteen, and if she is seen by some old ladies, she will not have anything good to say.
Yuan Si looked at the green piece in the bowl, and her face was a little green. What is this, why is it not as pleasing to the eye as Li Yuan's porridge as it looks, it is said to be thick, she sees that there are not many budding rice noodles in it, and the scalded wild vegetables in it really can't arouse people's appetite.
"Still stupid to look at what to do, hurry up and drink. The old lady urged beside her.
"Hey!" Yuan Si comforted herself in her heart, maybe this porridge doesn't look good, but it tastes delicious. She picked up the bowl and poured it down.
"Come, my mother is not hungry, I'm giving you something. The old lady watched the little girl finish eating with a wrinkled face, and then carefully poured half of the porridge in her bowl into the empty bowl.
"Mother, no need, I'm full, you can eat yourself. She pinched her nose and poured that bowl of wild vegetable porridge, and she really couldn't eat it at this time. Are these people tasteless, and such porridge can still be eaten. Yuan Si shook her head in her heart, feeling incredible.
Although Yuan Si was born in the last days, it can be regarded as a good time, she was born with the protection of the safety zone, and her father and mother are all supernaturals, so she has never lived a hungry life. If she had been born in the early days of the last days, it is estimated that she would have been able to dry up without changing her face when she saw such a wild vegetable porridge.
"I'm full, how can I be full of such a little porridge, and when I pee down, there's nothing left. Didn't you say that you can eat two bowls of mushy porridge at your second sister's house, what is that? Don't turn it upside down, it's forbidden to sprinkle it. As she spoke, the old lady picked up half of her bowl of mushy porridge and drank it carefully. After drinking, I licked the bowl clean with my tongue.
Yuan Si looked at the old lady like that, looking at the half bowl of porridge in her hand. Although she didn't eat at all, it should be said that after a bowl of porridge, she didn't feel like she was going to eat at all, but she couldn't let the old lady share the rice with herself, and then let the old lady pour cold water at home.
And thinking of the terrifying taste of porridge, Yuan Si still chose to retreat, she stuffed the bowl in her hand into the old lady's hand, and then spread her feet and ran out, "Mother, you eat first, I'll go and hand over the task and go home." ”
"This kid is frizzy every day, and he doesn't stop, and he doesn't know who he is with. The old lady only had time to see one of the little girl's backs, and couldn't help muttering a few words.
"Who else can you look like, your old Li Tou is not this character. An aunt next to him said with a smile.
But no, Lao Li Tou is a well-known honest man in the village, except for being able to work, he has nothing else crooked thoughts, and he is the kind of person who is the most reassuring to the captain. Fortunately, when I was young, I looked very Zhouzheng, so I found such a powerful daughter-in-law as Zuo Daya, or I don't know what it looks like in this life.
The children of the Li family are also grown, and their faces follow Old Man Li, and they are all very thoughtful, but their temperaments are not so consistent.
Zuo Daya admitted that the temperament of her son and little daughter followed her, but the people in the village said that only the second child of the Li family followed Zuo Daya's temperament, and now I am afraid that a junior will have to be added.
"Hehe, my little girl, it's not my own boasting, but it's much better than her sisters. Zuo Daya also feels that the little girl's temperament follows her, and she doesn't blame her for being biased, who doesn't rarely follow her own children.
"Hehe, that's not, who in our village doesn't know how many good daughters you gave birth to, sister-in-law, you see whose daughters can be as filial as your daughters, and you have to walk so far before the New Year to come back to see what you still lack as a lady, we look at it and envy it." What she said was that the third child of the Li family walked back to her parents' house to see Zuo Daya during the Chinese New Year last year, which was basically known to the whole village, which can be described as a good story.
"Oh, isn't that what they should do as children, I've worked hard for them all my life, and it's time for them to honor me when I'm old. Zuo Daya said with a smile on her face.
