Chapter 5 Firewood sticks
June opened the curtain and walked in with a basin in his hand, followed by Li, also holding a large basin, which was full of hairy-looking things, like sticks. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Several people stopped frolicking, and Jin Dashan was stunned.
This is?
Chu Yi asked innocently: "Mother, what is this?" I look like a burning stick! ā
"Yes, yes, mother, it won't be eating this today, right?" Eighteen was a little anxious, and the fire in his stomach had already burned, but he couldn't burn the firewood to eat.
Li smiled and said, "That's it, this is a good thing." ā
Jin Dashan was also a little confused, his daughter-in-law knew that she hadn't seen any smile on her face for a long time, and with such a rare smile like a flower today, Jin Dashan felt a little overwhelmed.
Eat it!
Glancing at a few children, Jin Dashan coughed, looked at the pot of "burning sticks", his heart was horizontal, he picked up a piece, and it was still a little hot, but it was not hard in his hand, and he was just about to put it in his mouth, and his hand was beaten by Li.
"Peel it and eat it!"
Jin Dashan smiled!
The skin was removed, and what was revealed was white meat, and Jin Dashan took a bite.
Oh, it's really delicious!
I couldn't help but gulp.
On the first day of junior high school, thirteen and eighteen looks, there is a door.
The three of them were already hungry, and the three pairs of big hands picked up and peeled the skin, and ate it in large gulps.
Mmmm, it's really delicious!
I couldn't help but get anxious.
Eighteen choked, and June quickly pushed the cornmeal batter in front of him, which happened to be drunk as gruel.
Eighteen smiled gratefully, poured down half a bowl of porridge in one go, and his anger was smooth.
In June and September, the nineteen and thirteen little ones did not eat much, but they ate a lot in the woods, and all of them had round bellies, and they were not very hungry now.
Seeing the sweetness of the family's food, June comforted her that she had finally solved her family's food problem and her own hunger problem.
Jin Dashan was too full, his stomach was bulging, and he felt a little panicked.
"Damn, what is this? It's pretty tasty. ā
patted his stomach, and Jin Dashan asked.
Li Shi glanced at June and said, "It was discovered in June, it seems that a passing uncle dug it up and ate it, and this kid only noticed it today, so he dug some back." Just top grain. ā
When Jin Dashan heard this, he immediately patted June's head with a smile and praised: "Not bad, not bad, my daughter has grown up and has the ability, better than me, who is a father." ā
Li glanced at Jin Dashan, this father is not in shape.
While cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, he instructed: "The first day of the new year, thirteen, and eighteen, don't go to the paper mill with your father for a while, and go to the forest with me to dig these out, and say that there are many more, and it is estimated that we can eat for more than ten days after digging back." ā
As soon as they heard this, they immediately nodded, and the things that filled their stomachs must be positive.
After eating, Jin Dashan smoked a bag of cigarettes before going to the paper mill in the front yard.
Li took the first day of junior high school, the thirteenth and eighteenth and the three of them in June, and set off to the forest together.
When I went out and ran into the neighborhood, Xiaolin's sister-in-law next door also gossiped and asked Li why he was taking the children there.
Li said lightly that there was not much firewood at home, and he couldn't keep up with the pulp, so he went to the forest to chop some firewood.
Xiaolin's sister-in-law immediately pursed her lips disdainfully, the paper mill on this street also belongs to the Jin Dashan family's business is bleak, who is still chopping firewood, they are all bought for dozens of dollars.
Xin said: "The Jin family is really going to be ruined, or it won't be a year, ask about the Jin family's paper mill, there should be a good price, after all, compared to not having enough to eat, selling the paper mill is also a way." ā
Kobayashi's sister-in-law went home to discuss.
Here Li took six children into the forest, and met some people along the way, but they all knew that they were collecting firewood, and they went their own way when they said hello.
June took the Li family to the large yam bush, pointed to it, and said, "Mother, it's the yam buried in the ground here." ā
A few people didn't say much and began to dig in the soil.
Li and his three elder brothers all brought large baskets, which were definitely not of the same level as their baskets in June.
Digging up the soil at the bottom, there are really a lot of yams exposed, and each one has the thickness of a wrist, Li Shi is happy to see it, and June said that there are a lot, but after all, he has not seen it with his own eyes, this look, half a month's food has fallen, Li roughly estimated, this can be eaten for at least a month.
This can save food for the young and old, which can be the cost of 500 wen for people like them, and these 500 wen can still fill the belly with soup, which is not as good as the real filling of the stomach now.
Several people are very energetic to work, the first pair of several people's baskets are stuffed full, and they also tied several bundles with ropes, trying to carry them on their shoulders, it's okay, it's not a burden for their age.
A few people are in full swing, and occasionally there are people passing by to chop firewood, and they are a little puzzled when they see this family of firewood tied up like a hill there, and this weather is not yet the time for the price of firewood to rise.
The main reason is that I can't figure out what these people are happy about picking up firewood, as if they have picked up gold ingots.
There are really too many changes in this world, and people's hearts are unpredictable.
Li took a few boys to dig up several yam bushes in this area, and ran back and forth four or five times on the first day of junior high school, thirteen and eighteen, so as to send the packed yam home and pile it up in the backyard.
It's getting dark, and no one has the heart to go home, and everyone is worried about the problem that if you don't dig this good thing back today, if someone else finds out tomorrow, then there will be nothing.
For the food at home, several children are very desperate.
When it was completely dark, Li and a few children dragged their tired bodies home, of course, everyone was full of "burning sticks" on their backs and arms.
Jin Dashan came back early, and when he saw this pile, the same mountain of yams, his mouth couldn't close.
I touched my bulging belly, and said in my heart, I'm still full and comfortable!
The family put the yams neatly in the utility room next to them, where the waste paper products are usually disposed of, and they are all messy and useless, and now they are occupied by piles of yams.
In June, while boiling water for everyone and preparing to wash their faces, they were happy, this day was a bit rushing, at least Miss Qin's stomach was finally not so drumming, this is the beginning of life.
In the future, you still need to impress Jin Dashan by yourself, and gain enough trust and acceptance of new things here in Jin Dashan.
