Under the command of Li Haitang, the two little radish heads struggled to use two wooden sticks to prickly the ball in the basket, as soon as they thought that this thing could be eaten, and it was delicious, the speed of the little radish heads in their hands increased a little. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Under the struggle of the three of them, it didn't take long for the basket to be full, and then look at those thorn balls, there were a lot of them.

Li Haitang waved his little hand, and he was here today, anyway, others were not interested in this thing, they could do it slowly like making yams. In order not to attract the attention of others, Li Haitang deliberately picked up some grass that could burn the fire and covered it, and the three of them carried the basket slowly down the mountain. On the way, I met many villagers in Lijia Village, but no one was interested in the baskets they carried, they only felt that these three sisters and brothers were too pitiful, and they had to be self-reliant at such an age.

When I got home, I put this basket of thorn balls in the cellar first, and I was not in a hurry to peel the skin for the time being, it was noon, and it was time to cook, otherwise, those girls would not be able to make some way to pick themselves up for a while.

Before he arrived at his house, Li Haitang saw his grandfather Li Dehai and his eldest brother from a distance. I was secretly shocked, it's too bad, they all came back from working in the field, they haven't cooked yet, and after a while, Li Zhao's family has all kinds of difficulties, and they don't have to eat lunch if they don't make it.

Li Dehai saw that his granddaughter's face shook in panic, and he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart, beckoned, and motioned for Li Haitang to come over. Li Haitang pulled two small trots to Li Dehai, called Lord, and greeted Li Yutian and Li Chun, her third uncle Li Yushan, who had the same temperament as Li Zhao's, was not there.

"Begonia, let's go to your Aunt Zhao's house to sit for a while, you don't have to worry, go back and get it slowly, we are doing our work today, and we will come back early." Li Dehai touched his granddaughter's head, and said with some pity that he couldn't shelter her, so he could only try to bring her less trouble.

Li Haitang nodded heavily, pulled the two small ones and ran home. I was moved for a while, Li Dehai didn't have much say in the Li family, and he couldn't make a fart out of a few sticks, but his mind was really kind. Li Yutian and his son originally took pity on Li Haitang's sister and brother, so they also obediently followed Li Dehai to Lao Zhao's house on the other side.

They also didn't have a time, Li Haitang made a meal at noon, and it didn't take half a cup of tea to get home. After washing his hands and sitting back and waiting for the food to be served.

Li Zhao was surprised: "What about the third child?" ”

Li Dehai said without raising his head: "On the way back, I met Liu Dazhu in the village, and the two didn't know what to do, so they said that they wouldn't come back to eat at noon." ”

Li Zhao frowned, this Liu Dazhu's reputation in the village is not good, but the third child is very close to him, and he can't listen to it.

Li Yurou saw that Li Zhao's face was not good, and smiled sweetly: "Mother, the third brother is a smart person, he must be measured in his actions." Mother doesn't have to worry about the third brother. ”

Li also said for a while, Li Zhao's face looked good, waved his hand, and said, "Let's eat." ”

Li Haitang's sister and brother tried their best to reduce their sense of existence, quietly eating their rated portions, and occasionally holding a chopstick pickle.

It's just that the more low-key they are, the more people find fault. It's not someone else, it's Li Xiahe as always. I don't know where Li Haitang offended her, every day she doesn't ask her for something, it's impossible.

"Mother, look at their appearance, they look like starving ghosts are reincarnated." Li Xiahe pouted and said disdainfully.

Li Haitang was angry for a while, is it so unstoppable to eat? Forbearance, forbearance, forbearance.

Seeing that Li Haitang didn't squeak, Li Xiahe didn't look like he would stop at all, his big black eyes turned, and he said: "Milk, mother, I can't eat when I look at Begonia's appearance." ”

The Li family originally hated Li Haitang, and listening to his baby girl say this, he naturally agreed with his daughter's statement. couldn't help but speak: "Mother, I heard in the town that this little girl doesn't look good when she eats, but she is very disliked." You see, we are all eating at the same table, and we don't see anyone who looks down and doesn't look up, so if the eating appearance of the begonias affects them, this ......"

This they naturally refer to Li Yurou, Li Qiuju, and Li Xiahe. It was obviously nonsense, but Li Zhao's brows furrowed. This Li family does the business of human teeth, and there are many little girls in her hands, she said this, and Li Zhao completely believed it. In addition, she didn't like Li Haitang in the first place, and now she is even more worried, her youngest daughter is going to marry into a rich family as a young grandmother, in case it is affected, it is not good.

Li Haitang wailed in his heart, God, you don't let people stop for a day, right?

After a long time, Li Zhao spoke: "Begonia, let's do it, and the milk will provide food for the three of you in the future." You just come over every day to help the milk do some work, and when it's cold, you can still warm up at home with a fire. There are also a large number of people eating here, and there is no extra food for you, so you will get six catties of bud rice stubble and six catties of bud rice noodles every month. ”

This bud rice stubble can be boiled into porridge and drunk, and this bud rice noodles are made into big cakes. However, these things can be eaten for half a month at most, so you still have to save them. I know that this old woman doesn't have any good intentions, but if she doesn't agree, maybe she will come up with some tricks! It's better to suffer a loss, and Li Haitang is confident that if he doesn't eat here, they will eat better.

"Just listen to the milk." Li Haitang had a sad but cautious look on his face, which made Li Dehai and them feel sad, but he couldn't think of any way.

Li Dongsheng and Li Dongmei were two, their little hands were clasped together, and there was also a forbearance expression on their faces. They remember what Li Haitang said, they are not strong enough, they can only endure.

It's not that it's not without benefits at all, at least you don't have to cook, it's just a job like feeding chickens and pigs every day. The cooking was naturally taken over by the Li mother and daughter, looking at their angry eyes, Li Haitang looked innocent, it was you who had nothing to do to calculate me, and it was not strange that this cooking work fell on you. Li Zhao won't stretch out his hand, and naturally he won't let her youngest daughter's shallot-like tender little hands get a little touch.

Back at home, Li Haitang saw that the two little ones were still depressed, and couldn't help but smile: "Dongsheng Dongmei, if you have a straight face now, you will be like this when you grow up, and you will be ugly." You have to be happy every day, and you can look good when you grow up. ”

After all, it is a child, as soon as Li Haitang said this, he immediately believed it, especially Li Dongmei, girls love beauty, but regardless of age.

Li Haitang saw that their expressions were relaxed, and said: "The milk gave the food, we saved a little, plus those yams, we can't be hungry." "I still have a hundred dollars from Gu Su's in my hand, waiting to buy some fatty meat, fry some oil, and save no oil for dinner.

Three emaciated figures went into the cellar together, and when they went down, one of them still holding a flat stone in his hand. There's nothing to do anyway, just get the thorn ball out of the way. The thorns were dried up and cracked with a little force. Watching the brown chestnuts come out of the thorn ball one by one, Li Haitang couldn't express the joy in his heart.

After about an hour's effort, this basket of thorn balls was opened, and the brown chestnuts filled a third of the basket, so there were more than ten catties.

The chestnuts were packed with about a pound and taken out of the cellar, and Li Haitang was ready to steam them for his younger siblings to eat at night.

Li Haitang didn't dare to come forward by himself when it came to buying meat, they were all from the same village, and if it spread to his family, it would be another unclear matter. Thinking about it, I still have to trouble Gu Yongjia, but it's really embarrassing to think about using the money given by other people's families to ask someone to help buy meat!

When he went to the Gu family's courtyard, Li Haitang went to the cellar and put some freshly made chestnuts in the basket, and took a yam, and finally, covered it with a layer of wild vegetables, took the clothes that Gu Su's gave last time, and then walked to the Gu family's courtyard. On the way, when he met a villager who inquired, Li Haitang said that he would go to send clothes to Gu Su's family, and thanked them for their help and dug up a basket of wild vegetables. didn't have any doubts, but it just made Li Haitang feel depressed in his heart, this whole thing is similar to being a thief.

Gu Sushi was very happy to see Li Haitang coming, and learned of her intention, so he directly asked Gu Yongjia to go to the butcher's house to cut meat, anyway, no one will suspect that his family will cut meat at two ends in three days, and the people in the village are in awe when they look at them, and it is even more foolproof.

Gu Yongjia heard Li Haitang say that he wanted to get some oil, and when he was cooking porridge, he got it in and opened some meat for his younger siblings, and there was a hint of a smile on his face, and Li Haitang didn't know if he was wrong. Anyway, when I looked at it again, the goods had already gone out, leaving only a back.

Li Haitang took out the yam and gave it to Gu Su's, and after telling her how to eat the chestnuts, he obediently sat in the courtyard and waited for Gu Yongjia to come back.

After a while, Gu Yongjia came back with two pieces of meat in his hand. One is pure white meat, and the other is pork belly.

Li Haitang asked Gu Su's for more money, and Gu Su's refused to ask for anything, only saying that the meat was used to exchange for yam and chestnuts. also said that if there are any good things in the future, please ask Li Haitang to bring them, and they can exchange them with her with what they have. When Gu Sushi said this, it was clear that he wanted to help Li Haitang. Li Haitang had no way to refuse, so he had to make a note of their goodness in his heart.

When he walked out, Li Haitang looked up and saw the bunches of purple-red grapes on the grape shelf, his heart moved, and he said, "Aunt Gu, what do you do with this grape every year?" ”

The south wall of Gu Su's courtyard is full of grape trellises, and the grapes are growing well, so the grapes are densely hung with ripe grapes.

"I'll eat it myself, but I can't eat it all because it grows too much every year, and the grapes are spoiled nine times out of ten every year." Gu Sushi sighed, very helpless.

Li Haitang thought about it, too, the people of Lijia Village are all people who face the loess with their backs to the sky, and they eat from the ground every day, and they don't have extra money to buy these grapes to eat, and Gu Sushi also said that they have almost no intersection with the people in the village, so naturally they can't use this grape to exchange things with the people in the village, even if there is an intersection, which of these farmers who have been busy for half their lives are willing to exchange grain for grapes?

Li Haitang has a plan in his heart, these grapes are wasted like this, it is better to ferment them to make wine! However, this matter still needs to be well summed up.
