Chapter 13: Sisters

And here in the old Qin family, the peppercorns with increasingly pale faces were held in their arms by fennel, listening to the second uncle Qin Lianxiong and the clan uncle Qin Lianbiao talking outside. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Because they are separated by a yard and a house, even if the two of them are talking like thunder, they can only listen to half of it when they open their ears wide.

But these days, the clan uncle has come to the door to find trouble, and there are only a few words that are repeated over and over, and Hua Jiao doesn't have the heart to pay attention to him.

Fortunately, no matter what, grandfather and father will not go out today, this is certain, Hua Jiao subconsciously let out a long breath.

Xiangye, who had been sleeping soundly until now, was woken up by the heat, stretched out his arms and kicked his feet, and rubbed his eyes sleepily. Hearing Huajiao's sigh, he looked at her blankly, then at Fennel, and asked her innocently: "Second sister, what's wrong with Jiaojiao?" ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his little hand and probed the forehead of the peppercorn.

Fennel smiled and touched Xiangye's little head, and was about to speak, Lilac, who hurriedly ran out to inquire about the news, ran back in a hurry. Before the curtain was lifted, he hurriedly told the sisters: "...... Fang Cai's grandfather and uncles waited for a quarter of an hour at the entrance of the village, and then waited for the eldest cousin and the second cousin, and the younger uncle went to the ancestral hall to look for someone. As a result, my uncle and my uncle stayed there with two cousins, and I knew that something was wrong. Coming out of the ancestral hall, the uncle accompanied his uncle and grandfather to the door one by one......"

As a result, those young and strong villagers who had originally agreed to set off together to draw water from the Yangtze River this morning somehow turned against each other. Some of them were red-faced and red-eared, but they refused to see people. But some don't say that when they got water, they fell and broke their legs, and they couldn't walk. It's just that the heat is hurting, and I can't get out of bed. There are even more people who keep saying that my mother is going to stop the bed, and I don't know what this mother should think when she hears this?

Sichuan Pepper was secretly worried, but listened to Lilac continue: "...... Uncle and grandfather just reprimanded, but as a result, a grandmother ran out and rolled around looking for death and life, crying and saying that she worked hard to pull her son up to support the elderly, and her uncle and grandfather have a house and land, and she is not afraid, she only has such a son. This uncle and grandfather want her to end her account, what strength does she have to live, it is better to die early...... made my uncle so angry that he almost fainted. As a result, there was also the villain's crooked trick, saying that since our family had done a good job, we would set off to draw water first. Catch Ming'er to draw water back, what kind of price should it be, they will not be less, and they will definitely not make our family work hard. Bah! ”

The more Lilac said, the more angry he became: "It's just that I'm afraid of death, and I dare to use money to smash people, do you know what the price of water is now, I'm panicking for them!" And he hated it, "Don't let me know who came up with this evil idea......"

Lilac's small mouth said quickly, and the six-year-old Xiangye seemed to understand it, and when she saw Ding Xiang's face turned purple, she hurriedly stepped forward to give her a good breath.

Fennel's face was not very good-looking, so she thought about it, but she ignored those rights and wrongs, and just asked her, "How is my uncle?" And said: "Then will we go by ourselves?" ”

Lilac shook her head first, and then nodded: "I don't know what happened to my uncle, I think it should be fine!" But my grandfather said that our family would go to draw water tomorrow. ”

As soon as the words fell, when she heard another movement outside, Lilac hurriedly leaned in front of the window and looked, turned her head and told her sisters and sisters: "It's my uncle!" Then he said, "I'll take a look," and ran out again with a roar.

Xiangye saw it, and also climbed out of bed and trotted down, and followed.

Sichuan pepper was crooked in Fennel's arms, and it took up all the energy to understand what had happened, and he was naturally angry, but he was also relieved.

My grandmother used to say, "A hundred kinds of rice raise a hundred kinds of people."

What's more, fickleness is not people's hearts, and shallowness is not human feelings.

In the past, it has not involved vital interests, and life has been smooth, and it has a high profile when getting along. But at this point, it can't be said to be a matter between life and death, some people retreat from the battle, some people are brazen, and it is not unimaginable.

Just wants to sit back and enjoy the success, regardless of good or bad, good or evil, but it is a miscalculation.

Sichuan pepper was secretly worried, but after a while, Lilac ran back with the bay leaves, but her complexion was already different.

He climbed into bed and told pepper and fennel with a proud look: "Uncle and his old man came here to compensate for it, saying that he would definitely give an explanation to his grandfather." Grandfather didn't say anything, but he had already decided that he would set off early tomorrow morning to fetch water, and the uncles said yes! ”

Both peppercorns and fennel have changed their faces, but they don't know whether to be happy or worried.

Only Xiangye was still ignorant, but when she heard this, she became anxious: "Then grandfather and father, they drew water from the river, do you want to share it with them?" ”

"Of course not!" When Lilac heard this, she immediately raised her eyebrows.

After speaking, he realized that he was afraid that he was scared of Xiangye, so he hurriedly patted her on the back to comfort her: "That's the water that grandfather and uncle have worked so hard to draw, no one should think about it." After thinking about it, he said: "If my grandfather and grandmother want to share it with anyone, then it's another matter, but no one wants to fight our family again." ”

After speaking, he looked at the fennel again: "Second sister, do you say yes!" ”

Seeing that Fennel nodded in response, Lilac breathed a sigh of relief. sighed again, his little head drooped, and he couldn't help but say quietly: "If only I could be a little bigger, I'm not afraid of death, and I can follow my grandfather to draw water." ”

Hearing that tears were about to fall, Sichuan Pepper leaned out of Fennel's arms and hugged Lilac.

Lilac quickly cheered up again, and the pepper looked at it and felt very distressed.

I can't help but think again, if there is no way to really flee the famine, what will happen to the family of brothers and sisters?

She couldn't do anything.

In her previous life, she always thought that things were man-made, and as long as she was willing to think about it, there would be a way. But in the face of such a natural disaster, whether it was before or now, she has no way to save herself, and the accumulation of memories from her past life and this life is not of any use at all.

As far as she could imagine, her family had already done it. What she didn't expect was that the family had already taken care of it one by one.

All she could do seemed to be could do was stay put. If you don't cause trouble, it's a help.

The curtain of the door was gently lifted again, Hua Jiao raised his head, and a bunch of boys with peach heads ran in lightly, and the one who started was Hua Jiao's sibling brother, Qin Chuanjian, who was a cousin.

Seeing that Hua Jiao had woken up, sitting in his sister Fennel's arms, looking at him with big eyes flickering, Qin Chuanjian ran forward in three steps and two steps, and took Hua Jiao's little hand to talk to her.

asked her one by one, "Have you slept enough?" Does it still hurt in your body? Have you ever eaten mush? Is it still bitter in the mouth? ”
