Chapter 6 Egg Fried Rice
While the women were talking in the courtyard, Mo Ah Grandma urged Mo Xiaoman to go back to the house to change clothes. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Mo Xiaoman avoided Liu Fengying's eyes, slipped into the east room, and first ran to the backyard kitchen to uncover the lid of the iron pot - she was so hungry that she couldn't just drink the spiritual spring, so she had to eat something to cushion the mat.
In my memory, in her previous life, Liu Fengying often sent Mo Xiaoman out to work, and then cooked food for her children, such as boiling a pot of white rice, and then knocking two eggs and scrambling it fragrantly, or mixing some flour to make gnocchi, otherwise grinding glutinous rice into flour and frying oil balls...... Sometimes when she was bumped into by Mo Xiaoman, Liu Fengying didn't panic, she just glanced at her coldly, saying that her younger brothers and sisters were still young and greedy, she was the eldest sister, so don't grab it with her younger siblings!
How old is Mo Xiaoman? It's just as greedy, but how could she ever rob it? Even if she wants to, she can't rob Liu Fengying!
Liu Fengying and Mo Guoqiang, in their previous life, Mo Xiaoman never knew that they were not their biological sons, and they were thrown in the capital, so they hated them!
Coming back in this life, Mo Xiaoman did not hesitate, he had to try his best to jump out of this fire pit quickly!
In the future, make plans again!
Peeling off the lid of the big iron pot, there was indeed half a piece of rice left in it, Mo Xiaoman grabbed it and stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it vigorously, and swallowed it in three or two times.
I also swept a few egg shells thrown in the stove hole, it was a rainy day today, Liu Fengying didn't go to work, she must be making egg fried rice for the little cubs to satisfy their hunger!
In order to prevent grandpa and grandma from taking advantage of them, the two built the kitchen in the backyard, and no matter what delicious food they made, they didn't share it with grandma, and they didn't even want grandpa and grandma to smell the smell!
Today's egg fried rice, of course, can't have grandma's portion!
Mo Xiaoman counted the egg shells and actually knocked out five eggs, you can imagine how fragrant the egg fried rice is!
She rolled her eyes, raised her head and saw that a small flat bamboo basket with a lid was hanging on the wooden beam, Mo Xiaoman moved the stool over and put it away, climbed up to support the bamboo basket, took it down and lifted the lid to see: Hey! It's really half a bowl of golden and fragrant egg fried rice, which is reserved for Mo Guoqiang!
Regardless of his three-seven-twenty-one, Mo Xiaoman took out a pair of chopsticks from the chopsticks hanging on the side of the cupboard, and took out a small bowl, divided the egg fried rice into two, kept the small bowl, and picked up the medium-sized bowl that was originally in the basket, and quickly pulled it into his mouth...... Being able to eat a bite of egg fried rice is almost the same as the New Year, and it is also Liu Fengying's ability, climbing up to her biological daughter in the city, and the daughter gave them five yuan and ten yuan, which is enough for them to eat a few good meals a month!
Mo Xiaoman just wanted to fill his stomach, and he didn't have time to taste the deliciousness, so he just wanted to swallow the egg fried rice into his stomach quickly!
This has to be put in the previous life, even if she is so hungry that she almost faints, and sees the delicious food hanging on the beam, she will definitely not dare to take it down and eat it: first, she is afraid of Liu Fengying, and second, she feels that she left it for her father, who is still working hard outside, and she should not eat it!
Now, not only does she have the courage to eat the fried rice, but she also eats it without any burden!
After eating, she still covered the medium-sized bowl into the small bamboo basket, still hung it back on the beam, and then ran to touch the hole in the wall, and really touched the soft leather notebook, Liu Fengying's accounting book!
Mo Xiaoman flipped through it roughly, he only read to the second grade of primary school in his last life, and then he met that person, who couldn't move himself, but he used his influence to find four or five teachers and masters for her in one go, and in three years, he instilled all kinds of knowledge and skills in her like a duck, so that she would not be blind in the years to come, and she could maintain a decent, rich and dignified life with her own ability, and no longer have to worry about falling into poverty and hardship!
Thinking of that person again, Mo Xiaoman had a sour nose, sighed, gently rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand, rolled up his notebook, held the small bowl of egg fried rice in one hand, ran back to the house, and climbed up the wooden building on a rickety wooden ladder to change clothes.
The wooden building is not big, about seven or eight square meters, Mo Guoqiang and Liu Fengying let the children sleep upstairs, because there are not many bed frames at home, and a few children use bamboo mats to lay on the floor, and they can sleep directly. Although Mo Xiaoneng is a boy, he is still young, he sleeps with his sisters, Mo Xiaoqiang is the grandson of the Mo family, he is valued, he has his own room, which is the room behind the incense hall of the hall.
There is no baffle on all sides of the wooden building, which seems to be a little empty, and the corn and peppers from the land reserved for the past years are taken back, and they are tied into strings and hung around the wooden building along the beams.
Mo Xiaoman found her own clothes and pants from the pile of clothes hanging randomly on the bamboo pole and put them on, she didn't have a few clothes, and they were all tattered, Liu Fengying scolded her all day long for not being able to pick up, mending up clothes and making them twisted and ugly to death, what kind of needlework can an eleven-year-old girl have? There is still endless work to do every day, and it is very good to be able to sew all the patches tightly!
After changing his clothes, Mo Xiaoman took out a homework book from Mo Xiaofeng's schoolbag, tore a blank page and covered it on the small bowl, then took an old piece of clothing to wrap the bowl in its entirety, stuffed Liu Fengying's notebook into his trouser pocket, pulled the placket to cover the bag, and then squeaked and stepped down the stairs down the wooden building.
The women in the yard said for a while, is about to disperse, after the rainstorm, there is still half a day left, now is the era of the production team, the work to the captain to convene, assign, see if the captain does not come out to shout to convene the members, people will hurry up to do the work at home, after all, in addition to the production team, each family has its own land, as well as the vegetable garden left by the ancestors.
Liu Fengying didn't want to talk more to the women, so she was pulling Mo Xiaofeng to pretend to help her find lice, and Mo Xiaozhi and Mo Xiaohua were squatting on the side, Mo Xiaozhi was learning from Liu Fengying's example, and she was also flipping Mo Xiaohua's hair!
When Mo Xiaoman saw this, he suddenly felt that his scalp was itching and tingling - it seems, it seems, yes! Now Mo Xiaoman also has lice on his head!
I have experienced hardships in my previous life, but the next ten years of life are very exquisite, the so-called from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift, she has become accustomed to the low-key but generous petty bourgeois life, at this time when she meets lice again, Mo Xiaoman feels a little collapsed, and her little face is wrinkled like eating raw bitter gourd!
No, no, you have to leave quickly, hurry up and clean yourself!
Mo Xiaoman closed his eyes fiercely, pretending not to see the girls, and walked straight towards Grandma's hut with his old clothes.
Liu Fengying found her and shouted, "Mo Xiaoman, what are you doing?"
Mo Xiaoman: "Didn't do anything!"
"The water tank is out of water, you don't go to carry water, what are you running around?"
"I fell into the river today and was frightened, and it rained again, and I felt unwell and wanted to rest!"
"You!" Liu Fengying gritted her teeth, and said in her heart, you are a cheap life, it is good to drown you!
"This dress is too bad, don't want it, make a nest for the second aunt's cat!"
"Okay, you Mo Xiaoman, you're out of luck! Your family has a lot of money, don't you? Good clothes, don't you want if you say you don't want it...... Stop me!"
Liu Fengying hurried over with a scolding, and Mo Xiaoman had already rushed into the grandmother's house in three steps and two steps, covered the door of the house, and inserted a wooden bolt.
Liu Fengying was thunderous outside, scolding and scolding, Mo Xiaoman hurriedly took out the bowl of egg fried rice from his old clothes, handed it to the grandmother sitting on the low stool, and said softly: "Milk, they made egg fried rice at noon and ate it, and left a bowl for ...... Let me steal it, I'll eat half of it, you eat half of it!"
Mo Ah Grandma took the bowl in her hand, stroked the edge of the bowl, and stretched out a hand to touch Xiao Man's face, sighing: "I smelled the milk at noon, and they made it delicious in the future, and the milk didn't say it, they all understood it in their hearts! This egg fried rice is not reserved for you?"
"Milk, they can't leave it to me! Since I was sensible, I have made delicious food, and the whole family has a share, but there will be no mine!"
Grandma Mo had a sad look on her face, and she was very puzzled: "Why is this? You are their eldest daughter, the meat that fell from their bodies, why are you so unwelcome?"
"Milk, do you believe what I say?"
"Huh, what?"
"Grandma only said believe me or not?"
"Our Xiaoman is an honest child, he has never lied to his milk, his milk believes you!"
"Then I'll tell you!" Mo Xiaoman felt that he should let his grandmother know some truths.
"Say, Milk, listen. ”
"Mo Xiaofeng and I have a few small sleeping wooden buildings, downstairs is my parents' room, the night before, I woke up in the middle of the night and heard my parents say: I am not their own!"
"What?" Mo Grandma was taken aback and almost dropped the bowl: "Do you really hear it?
Mo Xiaoman took the bowl away, put it on the small table, knelt in front of Grandma Mo, put his head on her lap, and said with tears in his eyes: "Milk! I can hear it clearly! You should also know that their first child was born in the district hospital, and there are many people who go to the hospital to give birth, and they hugged me wrong! Milk! You have not been able to see in the past few years, but you still remember my appearance? I don't look like the two of them at all, they already know! Why do you often go to the city? Just to find their own daughter! Milk, have you ever seen a poor child like me in your life? I can't find my biological parents, and my parents are now treated as cows and horses, and they just don't have enough food and clothing, and they beat me at every turn! Since I was a child, how many beatings have I suffered, I'm a girl, I do all kinds of work, and I'm not naughty and naughty, but they just want to beat me! Milk, I really don't want to live!
Mo Ah Grandma hugged Mo Xiaoman's head tightly with both hands, tears were dripping from her eyes, her lips trembled and she was almost speechless: "Good boy, how old are you? Don't say that! They don't love you, but your milk hurts you!"
Mo Xiaoman whimpered: "Milk! Since they are not my biological parents, they are not qualified to beat me and scold me, but I am still young, no one will believe my words, they won't let me go, what should I do?"
Mo Ah Grandma paused, her fingers reached into Xiao Man's hair and rubbed it, as if she had made up her mind, and asked: "Xiao Man, let your grandfather come forward and return you to me and your grandfather, are you willing?" I and your grandfather are old, and I can't see with my eyes, you live with us, you may have to suffer hardships, and we can't protect you for long, but it's always okay for three or five years! When the time comes, when you are older, you will slowly find your parents......
Mo Xiaoman grabbed Grandma's hand: "Milk, I am willing to follow you and Grandpa! You raise me to grow up, and I will raise your old man in the future! My parents don't know where they are, they don't look for me, and I don't know where to find them, so let's live separately!"
"Okay! When your grandfather comes back, I'll tell him! Don't be afraid, it makes sense for us to ask your father for you!"
"Hmm!"
Mo Xiaoman got Grandma's acceptance, only felt relaxed, held the bowl of rice and stuffed it to Grandma, and then brought a pair of chopsticks and put it in her hand: "Milk, eat quickly!"
Smelling the aroma of fried rice, Mo Ah Grandma couldn't help but swallow her saliva: "Xiao Man, if you fall into this family, it's bitter for you! Although I can't see it, I know it! If you don't eat this rice, you won't be beaten again!"
"Milk, you eat! Liu Fengying is your daughter-in-law, even if the family is separated, she should honor you when she cooks delicious food, this is your share! I almost lost my life today, and when I came back, I was beaten hard, I have already seen it, and I can't bear them!"
Grandma Mo's eyes narrowed and nodded: "It's okay, then you don't have to go back to that house, stay with the milk, and see how she dares to take the milk!"
Liu Fengying stomped her feet in the yard and scolded, but she didn't dare to be too loud, after all, Aunt Han next door had just warned her, so Mo Xiaoman ignored her, and when she saw that her grandmother's hands were trembling and she couldn't eat, she found a small spoon and fed her grandmother one bite at a time.
Grandma swallowed very quickly, Mo Xiaoman couldn't help but ask, "Milk, did you have lunch today?"
Grandma covered her mouth and coughed lightly, her expression was flat: "Your grandfather said the day before yesterday, go up the mountain to pick herbs, and don't come back at night for a few days, as of today, in three days, I have only drunk three bowls of gruel, and one bowl every morning...... At noon today, your mother made egg fried rice, your second aunt made minced meat pancakes, and the children were shouting in the yard, comparing one to show off, in fact, they didn't say that I also knew, my nose is so good!"
Mo Xiaoman looked at Grandma sadly and couldn't say a word.
