Xie Yujiao and her grandfather went home, and the first thing they did was to cook. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info grandfather and grandson are busy in the kitchen together, Xie Yujiao brushes the pot, the old man washes the rice, waits for the rice to add water to the pot, covers the pot, Xie Yujiao lights the fire and adds firewood, and burns the fire.

After the porridge in the pot is cooked, cut half of the stored wead and put it in, cover the pot and let it simmer for a while.

When it is almost time, remove the lid of the pot, scoop a small spoonful of frozen lard and put it in, then sprinkle with salt and stir and stir, remove from the pot.

The fragrant and slimy porridge is ready.

A large pot of porridge was full, and in the end, the grandfather and grandson were stunned to eat nothing left with pickle gnocchi.

The grandfather and grandson, who had filled their stomachs, sat around the fire, and they both showed satisfied expressions.

Xie Yujiao touched her full stomach and said to the old man happily: "It is said that the people take food as the sky, it is really a good saying, when you are hungry and panicked, you can eat a full meal again, it feels so good and happy, right?" Grandfather? ”

The old man turned his hands over and over on the fire, and said without being salty or light: "Little girl, where do you feel so much emotion at such a young age?" Haven't you ever experienced the time when you're really hungry? “

I saw that the old man seemed to fall into a memory, and his deep voice slowly sounded: "Although I haven't experienced the old man, I have seen others hungry with my own eyes." I remember that year, when the way of heaven was not good, the land was confiscated, and the world was not peaceful, and the people had nothing to eat, so they dragged their families out to escape the famine. Seeing them fainting next to me hungry, there was nothing they could do, and there were countless starving deaths on the side of the road. It is said that the people take food as the sky, but at that time it was really the sky falling, and there was nothing else to eat except to eat people, so they could only wait for death."

Xie Yujiao originally felt that she was so happy that she was full of food and didn't move, but when the old man said this, she was suddenly terrified, and she quickly plugged her ears in fright, and shouted: "Grandpa, don't say it, I was quite enjoyable, you said this, I should be so scared that I can't sleep at night." ”

As soon as she finished yelling, she suddenly felt that she was a little overly pretentious, and she was a little embarrassed to shut up, staring at the stove and not knowing what to say.

The old man just felt it, and he didn't mean to scare her.

She put down the hand covering her ears and said meaningfully: "The feeling of being hungry is really uncomfortable, what can be more important than filling your stomach?" I was caught by the abductors for more than a month, and every day I was hungry and staring, and I longed to gnaw all the wood in the carriage, and I will never forget that feeling. However, compared to those who starved to death, I am truly happy in heaven now. ”

Thinking of the more than a month since she was arrested, she still has lingering palpitations.

Now the things that can make the old man sigh are not trivial matters, and they not only arouse her curiosity.

"Grandpa, what about you, you've been hungry too?"

"How could it not? But it's better than those old and weak women and children, at least when I have something to eat, others don't dare to come up and rob it, but it's just that I didn't starve to death, and I survived. Okay, let's not talk about that, the book I bought today to identify herbs, you have time to study and study, anyway, old man, I don't like to deal with books. The old man handed both books to Xie Yujiao.

Xie Yujiao took the book, threw all the unhappy things behind, and began to get excited again.

No way, she has always loved to read, no matter what book she can read.

In her last life, some classmates said that even if she was given a Chinese dictionary, she could stay quietly all day by herself, which shows that she is a person who loves to learn.

In fact, it's not that she loves to learn, but that she already likes words, and as long as she has a book, she can read it for a day.

I remember that after graduating from junior high school, there was a period of time when I was looking for a job, I was in Xinhua Bookstore, from 9 o'clock in the morning when the store door was opened until 10 o'clock in the evening. For at least a month, she soaked in the bookstore every day, buying two steamed buns at noon, and after nibbling outside the bookstore, she went in to continue reading.

She read everything except romance and horror books, and that month, she really forgot a little about the mundane things in the world.

Later, she found a job as a waitress in a teahouse, so that she didn't have time to go to the bookstore.

In this life, Xie Yujiao also retained her interest in books.

Even the thin "Soup Song" can make her love it, not to mention the "Medicinal Properties Analysis of Common Herbal Medicines" that she is interested in.

"Grandpa, don't worry, it's late today, since tomorrow, I will study the herbs in this book every day, and I will never go out if I don't grind the things in the book thoroughly."

"You don't need to bother too much, we don't open a pharmacy, and you don't study medicine, just understand the growth habits of a few herbs, so that you can plant them in the future."

Xie Yujiao didn't do it, this book was bought for two taels of silver, and it wouldn't be in vain if she didn't use it thoroughly. She also wanted to use this book to start her first step towards making a fortune.

On the second day, the old man was tinkering with those herb seedlings in the yard, and Xie Yujiao was basking in the sun in the yard, comparing the seedlings in the yard, and studying several familiar herbal habits in the "Analysis of the Medicinal Properties of Common Herbal Medicines".

Although the weather is still a little cold, the warm sun still feels a little warm on the body.

The old man looked up at the gate of the courtyard from time to time, and wondered that it was half of the morning, and the kid who Futu came here to report that day, why didn't he have a shadow today.

"Yujiao, Yujiao"

Because Futu reports every day, Old Man Qu usually doesn't close the courtyard door when he is at home, which makes it convenient for Niu Sanmei to run in, only to see that she is out of breath and can't speak.

Xie Yujiao hurried over, helped the person into the courtyard, and let her sit on the stone pier with cotton cushions.

"Speak slowly, first slowly."

Niu Sanmei relieved her breath, and then hurriedly said, "It's a commotion." Futu Niang is making trouble! ”

"Huh? What happened to Futu Niang? Xie Yujiao was confused, who is this Futu Niang fighting with?

Although she has heard a lot about Futu Niang's great achievements, it has been three months since she fell to Dongshan Village, and she has not caught up with Fu Tu Niang's troubles.

"Futu damn, I just heard yesterday that Bi Lian saw Futu's naked body, and today I took Futu to the village chief's house, saying that Futu would be responsible for Bi Lian." Niu Sanmei threw out the first bombshell news excitedly, staring at Xie Yujiao, wanting to see what her expression would be after hearing the news.

"Huh? Want Futu to be responsible for Bilian? What do you mean? Xie Yujiao's head was a mess, and she was still confused.

The village chief's family and Futu's family? Is it meant to get married?

"That is to say, Futu Niang wants to be a daughter-in-law for Futu Dingbilian." Niu Sanmei didn't understand Xie Yujiao when she saw it, so she simply explained Futu Niang's plan directly.

"Oh, that's it. How dare she think about it. Bilian Niang still didn't beat her out of the door. Xie Yujiao didn't make any comments, but judging from the conditions of the village chief's family and her love for Bilian, it was strange that she could agree.

Niu Sanmei saw that Xie Yujiao didn't have any other expressions after she understood, and couldn't help but be disappointed: "Yujiao, you don't have any other thoughts after listening to it?" Futu Niang is going to give Futu a daughter-in-law! ”
