Chapter 43: The Boy in the Woods
Su Ru leaned outside the window, looked at her father's appearance, and shook her head.
If it weren't for an old lady who was a demon and found fault all day long, their family would definitely be very happy.
If the uncle can persuade her father to live separately this time, even if she is poor and can't even afford potatoes, she will be willing.
But she knew very well that the old lady in the family would never say anything about separating the family easily.
In her previous life, she was so troubled that the old lady was not happy to split up, and she was still in charge of the family when she was in her eighties, which shows how strong her desire to control is!
Even if her father wants to break up, the old lady's fuss is just a fantasy.
After all, he is still a filial son, respects his elders, and does not want others to poke his back and say that he is disobedient and unfilial.
So at this time, it is impossible for the uncle to force them to split up.
Sighing, Su Ru retracted her head and jumped back to the front yard lightly, as for what her uncle would talk about with her father, she was not interested in knowing.
Even if Su Jianwu agrees to split up at this time, as long as the old lady doesn't agree, everything is empty talk!
Unless...... The old lady offered to split up!
She sighed helplessly, knowing better that this was impossible.
Back in the front yard, the eldest brother and the second brother are still nowhere to be seen, and it is estimated that they are still practicing in the forest, but the younger brother and sister are having a lot of fun with the little cousin, chasing the chickens and ducks in the yard and running around, and the little earth dogs in the yard are also excitedly chasing behind their buttocks, and the laughter is very lively.
One of the two aunts is killing fish, and the other is in rabbit skin.
The hare is gray and linen, because it grows very fat and has a beautiful skin, and it can be made into a glove bag or something if you keep it, and it won't be wasted anyway.
My grandfather sat on a small bench in the yard, watching his grandchildren play lively, giggling while smoking his own old cigarettes.
Su Ru felt that this was like a family.
Like the Su family, the old man boasted that he was a veteran of the Anti-Japanese War, enjoying various subsidies and benefits every month, and he was a proper emperor at home.
The old lady has the support of the soil emperor, and all kinds of daughters-in-law, sons and grandchildren are not like being a grandmother at all.
In her opinion, the Su family will eventually fall apart, which is directly related to the old man.
"What is the little girl thinking? ”
When Su Ru looked at the people in the courtyard in a daze, she was stroked on the head.
When she looked up, it turned out to be the eldest brother who had returned.
The second brother also followed the eldest brother and looked at her, looking at the expressions of the two brothers, it was obvious that they were very satisfied with the results of their cultivation during this time.
"Didn't think about anything. Su Ru grinned, revealing a silly smile.
Su Wenfei and the others naturally didn't believe it, the complicated look on the eldest sister's face just now didn't look like she didn't think about anything.
It's just that this little girl has a lot of secrets, and they don't want to get to the bottom of it, so Su Wenfei just picked her up with a smile and walked towards the kitchen.
"Mom, you make it so fragrant, you can smell the meat from afar. ”
Su Wenfei entered the kitchen with a smile, and the elders immediately stuffed a mouthful of meat into each of their brothers and sisters.
Su Ru looked at the gurgling sound in the big iron pot on the stove, and the smell of meat was even more vigorous, and she also felt a little hungry.
"It's almost time to eat, Xiao Xiang, go and bring the big wooden table, we are afraid that we won't be able to sit down at this small table." ”
Grandma said happily, she stood next to the cauldron and put the ingredients, her face was full of kindness.
Su Wenxiang immediately responded and ran to move the table.
Soon, it was time to eat.
The meat of the two hares, which combined with nearly thirty catties, was all cooked, and nothing was left.
There are two large pots directly placed on a large round table, one is roasted rabbit meat, and the other is naturally made of fish soup!
Everyone has a bowl of brown rice in front of them, just like the Chinese New Year.
Su Jianwu looked at this rich meal, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
When I was in the Su family, not to mention fish and rabbit meat, it was rare to even want to eat a bowl of brown rice.
And the Zhang family, although not every time they come, is so sumptuous, but as long as they come, it must be meat to entertain, brown rice tube full!
Compared with the food of the two families, it is no wonder that the brother-in-law said that Xinghua did not have a good life with him.
Except for Su Jianwu, everyone was very happy to eat this meal.
Especially Brother Su almost buried his face in the bowl.
The two large pots of vegetables were eaten by them cleanly, and even Su Ru couldn't help but eat it, touching her round belly and smiling with satisfaction.
If only I could go to my grandmother's house every day to eat.
Thinking so, Su Ru also knew that it was impossible to come over every once in a while.
It smells far away and smells close, if they come back and forth every once in a while, even if the two aunts have a good relationship with their family, they will change their faces because of the ration problem.
In this era, the countryside relies on farming to eat, and it is hard work to get food, and even your own family may not have enough to eat, so how can you eat like this every day?
It is absolutely impossible to say that the two fat rabbits did not want to keep one of the aunts.
But who told the grandmother to love her daughter, she naturally hoped that their family would be full of food and drink, and they would save themselves from being tormented by the old lady Nasu again.
After lunch, Su Ru went out for a walk with her brothers.
She planned to get two hares out for her grandmother to keep for them to eat, taking advantage of people's inattention.
"Cousin Fei, let's go dig out the birds' eggs! Last time, I dug out a lot of bird eggs with Erdan's family!"
Zhang Ziming walked in front excitedly, grabbing Su Wenfei's sleeve and coquettishly.
No one will dislike the lack of food these days, although the second brigade is also leaning against the mountain, but it is not as dangerous as Huyaling, there are still wild things in the nearby woods, if you can catch a wild rabbit or something, maybe you can eat a good meal of meat!
Su Wenfei was only sixteen years old, so naturally he would not disagree, and followed his younger brothers and sisters into the forest with great interest.
Unexpectedly, just a few minutes after walking in, I saw a person lying under a tree.
"Who's that?"
Su Wenfei immediately ran over, and the others followed.
Su Ru also leaned up, only to find that the person lying under the tree did not look very old, a teenager of twelve or thirteen years old.
However, this little boy has white lips, sunken cheeks, and tattered clothes on his body, which is very bad.
"Isn't this the thunderbolt of Widow Xiao's family!"
Zhang Ziming recognized the young man and exclaimed.
Su Wenfei had already woken up this person, and was about to ask why this guy was lying here, when the young man opened his eyes tremblingly.
The strange and vigilant swept over the group of people, and seemed to breathe a sigh of relief after discovering that they were not threatening.
"Hungry...... I'm so hungry...... Do you have anything to eat?"
