Chapter 11 Cheer up

After eating, Wu neatly cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks and hugged Shiro and coaxed, outside the house faintly heard the sound of the eldest aunt scolding Huai, Wu Yonggui said to a few children with a serious face, "You are all older, and there are some things that your father and mother have to let you know." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" said and touched the lotus's head: "Even our second sister has become a big girl." When Orchid heard this, she said in her heart, is this going to talk about the separation of the family? Quickly stop the plan to make a fortune in your heart and prick up your ears.

I saw Li Yonggui pause, and then said: "You should know everything about the family, and my father and mother will not hide it from you." Our family, the uncle's family will be separated from today, and the grandmother will follow the third uncle. Let's divide the family for nothing else, don't listen to people chew the root of the tongue, grandma is still your grandma, and the third uncle is still your uncle and third uncle, and you are not allowed to divide it in the future. With red eyes, he continued: "Also, your eldest brother is going to be conscripted. Half a month later, when King Jing's team arrived, he followed. ”

After speaking, he patted Da Lang's shoulder and fell silent.

"Isn't it for anything else, isn't it just that I'm afraid of being dragged down by us!" Orchid Niang's eyes were red, and she stood up and was about to go out: "Why didn't you divide it in the early years, this is to force our mother to death... But he was hugged by Li Yonggui, "Orchid Niang, I'm sorry for you." I'll go to the army with Da Lang, and the food at home will be enough to pay, and you can endure it with your children for a year and a half, and it's better to live with a soldier's salary."

"Dad, you can't go, it's enough for me to go alone." Da Lang was anxious: "What should you do if you leave your mother and younger siblings!" ”

For a while, the family was in a mess, Wu sat on the ground, there was not a single tear, the lotus hugged Chenghai and was so frightened that he burst into tears, and Erlang tightly pulled Da Lang's sleeve at a loss. Daddy squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, pulling his hair vigorously and weeping.

Orchid roughly understood a little bit of the situation in her father's cry, that is, the food distributed was not enough to hand in. Although Uncle Tai was fair, he couldn't stand the old man and the old lady's partiality, and the Orchid family only got a quarter of the family. Ten acres of land, only two acres, or a few years ago opened up the wasteland, fifteen chickens divided into four, pigs did not divide, vegetable plots were not divided, and the house was divided into three in the West House. All the grain was distributed only ten stones.

Trying to calm himself down, Orchid Heart Chassis calculated, took a deep breath, since no one came to save him, he had to save himself: "Dad!" I have a way."

No one paid attention to her, only Erlang looked at the orchid with burning eyes.

"Second brother, do you believe me?"

"Faith!" Erlang nodded: "I believe in the eldest sister!" Dad, big brother, you believe in big sister! The eldest sister said that she can do it! ”

"Daddy!" Orchid shouted, and her body trembled with excitement! "Listen to me, I can make money!" ”

Suddenly, everyone was quiet, and everyone raised their heads to stare at Li Lanhua.

Orchid licked her tongue and forced the plan blurted out in her heart, reminding herself again, you are only 10 years old, 10 years old! easy! Relax, calm down, step by step!

"Dad, I don't understand big things, what do you think of the miscellaneous fish cakes I make, can they be sold for money? After selling the money to buy food, you and your eldest brother don't have to go to the conscription! Am I right, trash fish don't need money, corn flour is available at home, let's not spend money to buy it," Seeing Li Yonggui's brows loosening, he hurriedly added: "Second brother, do you think the small fish we catch can be sold for money?" We can sell it in the town, but if it doesn't work in the town, we can go to the county to sell it. If it is sold, our family will be able to buy grain and chickens. There are also big strips, how big can I grasp after a while, I can burn and sell for money, right, second brother, lotus? ”

"Yes" Erlang shouted: "Dad, you believe in the eldest sister!" I can catch big fish every day! ”

"I can also dig wild vegetables and sell them every day for money, don't send my eldest brother to the army," Lotus cried as she spoke.

"Big sister, big sister. Don't go" even the youngest Cheng Tao cried. "Don't go."

Orchid hurriedly took the little brother from the lotus and coaxed: "Don't be afraid, Cheng Tao, the eldest sister will make you something to eat, and when the eldest sister makes money, I will buy you a sugar gourd." None of us are leaving, we are all at home. ”

"Listen to the eldest sister!" Unexpectedly, the first to respond was the orchid girl: "No one can force our mother to die!" The eldest sister is right, we have hands and feet, and we must not exchange our son for food! ”

Orchid's heart suddenly brightened! "Mother! You believe me?"

"Faith! I don't believe in my own daughters, do you believe in those who hurt me! Orchid Niang wiped her tears and stood up: "Da Lang, with your mother here, no one can force you to exchange your life for food." After speaking, he gathered his hair and patted the soil on his body, "Orchid, my mother will go up the mountain with you to dig wild vegetables and catch fish early in the morning in the Ming Dynasty." ”

"Big sister, big brother also believes in you." Da Lang looked at the orchid with sparkling eyes: "Big brother is not afraid of anything, if you have this heart, big brother will be content." ”

Li Yonggui lowered his head, didn't know what he was thinking, and suddenly slammed his fist on the table: "Orchid, Dad is not as good as you!" Your mother is right, we have hands and feet, tomorrow your mother will follow you to catch fish, and your father and eldest brother will go to open up the wasteland! ”

The family was holding back a breath of anger. Orchid's heart seems to have suddenly ignited a raging fighting spirit! You can burn yourself all at once.

This night, Li Lanhua had insomnia, she thought too much, first her parents, relatives and friends in the previous life, and then her parents and brothers and sisters now, and then she thought about how to sell the miscellaneous fish, what if she couldn't sell it? All kinds of problems came one after another, making Li Lanhua anxious, until the sky was bright, and Li Lanhua, who was staring at the dark circles, did not fall asleep, so she simply got dressed and got up.

found that my father and mother didn't look like they hadn't slept all night. Look at Jiro again, still snoring in bed. Hey, it looks like the adult world, tired.

It doesn't matter if no one believes it, no one will gamble the life of a family on a ten-year-old doll, and the Wu family is also forced to have no way to estimate. Forget it, don't mention it, Orchid rolls up her sleeves and does what she says.

"Second brother," as soon as he rinsed his mouth, Orchid saw the third uncle carrying two bags of cornmeal: "Second brother, don't take what my mother said yesterday, I, I... The third uncle couldn't say anything for a while, so he left it and walked out: "Although I don't use it, but small things can still help, Da Lang and a few of them I watched grow up, just like my own children, don't send Da Lang to conscription in every difficulty." ”

"Third brother!" Li Yonggui chased him out.

"Second brother, if you want to recognize me, don't say anything." Saying that, the sister-in-law knew that she was going to make trouble again, so she walked back to the south house after speaking. "Don't let our mother know, you know her, knife mouth tofu heart."

Carrying two bags of cornmeal, Li Yonggui's heart was sour.

Looking at his father standing in the morning sun from afar, slightly hunchbacked, as if his spine had been bent, he felt bitter in his heart, forgiving life, it was so cruel.
