I ate more than half of the flour in the bag just now, and now there is not much left, but even so, Liu Xiaping still unceremoniously went back to the house, found a clean bamboo tube filled with a jar of bamboo tube flour, and then hid it on her body and put the flour bag back.

The bamboo tube is sun-dried, only about fifteen centimeters high, but the diameter is about seven centimeters, there is no extra cup at home, she used to like to cut bamboo back, make a bamboo tube as a cup.

Because a bamboo can make a lot, she carefully put away the excess.

After loading the flour, Liu Xiaping washed the dishes and cleaned up the stove, then walked out of the door of the stove room, stood on the steps outside, and watched the heavy rain fall.

After the college entrance examination, August is considered a rainy season, and at this time, a lot of rain will fall in this place in northern Sichuan, even in later generations.

The humidity in the Sichuan-Chongqing area is heavy, so the people here are good at eating chili peppers, and almost every household grows this thing, even Liu Xiaping herself is a spicy and unhappy master.

In winter, the pickled spicy sauce pickles at home can become the main dish for most of the next year.

The Liu family's houses are all built in a bunch, and as long as a son gets married, a new house will be built.

It doesn't cost much to build this kind of earthen house, but because the family has not yet been separated, the barns of each family are basically empty, and the grain that the team has allocated is still mainly placed in the barn house on the grandmother's side.

At this time, the countryside is also said to be a good place, unlike the city people, food has to cost money and all kinds of tickets, they rely on the mountains here, a few years ago there were still some fierce guys in the mountains, but after six years of that national famine year, the wild things that can be caught on the mountains are basically caught up, not to mention, even the grass roots and bark are also pulled clean, or only recently slowly improved.

Liu Xiaping took two clean bamboo tubes and went to the barn, the bags were filled with old rice, about five or six catties, she simply filled two buckets, almost about one catty, anyway, her parents were living in a mess, and they didn't know how much food was left at home, as long as there was something to eat.

One bamboo tube of flour and two bamboo tubes of aged rice, after she finished loading, she immediately went back to the next room. When I passed by the hall, I saw that my younger brothers and sisters were still doing their homework, and it was a rare time for the family to relax when it rained.

It is estimated that because she made a fuss just now, her parents didn't bother to care about her, but it was convenient for her and hid a few bamboo tubes on her body.

Liu Xiaping used to like to collect some gadgets, but because Liu Xiaxiu always likes to ask for her things, if she doesn't give it, Liu Xiaxiu will go to sue Lin Cuihua, and under the coercion of her mother, she has to let her gadgets out.

I thought that I would return it to Liu Xiaxiu when she got tired of playing, but even if this girl was lost, she was not willing to return it to her.

So since she was sensible, she has learned to hide things.

She packed all her knick-knuckles in a wooden box, dug a pit under the bed, made a simple board of bamboo on top of it, and then filled the bamboo board with another layer of earth.

Finally, use a bamboo basket to cover the digging area.

At this time, the height of the wooden bed made at home was nearly half a meter high, and there were a lot of sundries baskets placed under the bed, so it was difficult for people to find the things she hid.

However, because Liu Xiaxiu is also in the same room with her every time, she has to be careful every time she hides things.

Digging out the wooden box, Liu Xiaping poured out all the contents and put the bamboo tube in.

Her speed is very fast, knowing that it is late, the family is reluctant to use candles, and Liu Xiaxiu is about to come back after a while, so before that, she must bury all that thing.

And there were many things in the wooden box that she had long forgotten.

In addition to the grasshoppers woven from grass leaves, there are also small toads, which have turned yellow.

Liu Xiaping actually found two silver hairpins and a gold hairpin inside.

Several hairpins have been around for some years, and they were still picked up from the pile of things that her grandmother didn't want before.

She still remembers that when she was seven or eight years old, she would be dragged to criticize if she didn't pay attention to it, Mrs. Liu's ingredients were not particularly good, she used to hear that she was also a small capitalist, but then she was down, and finally married Old Man Liu.

But at that time, because she was curious, she followed behind the old lady, and she didn't know much about what gold and silver were at that time, but she just saw that these things were very beautiful, so she took advantage of the old lady's departure and picked them up with the wooden box.

The wooden box at that time was the same wooden box where she was hiding things now.

It is about 25 centimeters long, 15 centimeters wide, and about 15 centimeters high, because it is often buried in the soil, and there are already traces of decay.

In addition to the hairpin, there is also a jade transparent bracelet and a pearl necklace, which are said to be the dowry left to her by the old lady's grandmother.

In the nineties, she still remembered that the old lady secretly gave a lot of good things to the third aunt and the fifth aunt, and it seems that the old lady was not stupid enough to throw away all the things in her hand.

Liu Xiaping didn't expect that she still had these things in her hands, although they are not worth much now, but these things will be worth a lot of money in the future, I remember that in the last life, the things in this wooden box were still seen by Liu Xiaxiu, and she cried and screamed and grinded them away, and over time, these things were also forgotten by her.

She put them all back in the wooden box, and as for the straw grasshoppers, she took them all out, intending to throw them away later.

After burying all the things, Liu Xiaping went outside to pick up the eaves water and wash her hands, and then she lay on the bed, with her eyes open, unable to sleep.

The sound of rain outside, mixed with thunder from time to time, made her unable to sleep.

As long as you close your eyes, the nightmares of your past life will play out in your mind over and over again.

Liu Xiaping's nose was sore, a trace of tears slipped out of the corners of her eyes, and after a while, she heard the voices of Liu Xiaxiu and Lin Cuihua, and the mother and daughter went directly into the house, saw that she was already lying on the bed, and didn't think about whether she was asleep.

I only heard Lin Cuihua's yin and yang weird words to Liu Xiaxiu, "Xiu'er, if your sister bullies you, tell your mother, and your mother will clean her up!" ”
