The three brothers and sisters returned to the West House, the house was turned into a mess, the kang mats were all lifted, the wheat stalks spread under the bamboo mats were also thrown to the ground, the quilts were messily clumped, and the boxes were placed crookedly on the kang tops.

Zhou Yang looked at everything in front of him without saying a word, but Zhou Chen didn't feel anything, and immediately began to clean up with his hands and feet. Zhou Yang wanted to put his sister on the kang of Zhou Chunxi's house outside, and he came to help clean it up. Zhou Chen patted the malt milk essence box that Zhou Wanwan was holding to stop him, "I'll clean it up at once, I don't need you." ”

Sure enough, after a while, the kang mat was tidied up, the quilt was also laid, and the three brothers and sisters were able to lie down soon. Zhou Chen bolted the door, and the three of them hid their heads in the quilt and spoke quietly.

"Big brother, why do you say that you are smart, she knows how to hide things!" Zhou Chen first praised today's great hero Zhou Wanwan. It's okay to say that the wheat milk essence is robbed at most if it is found, and if the wheat is found, then what will happen to them today is difficult to say.

"When we left, she was in the bed, how did she get it?" Zhou Yang considered it more practically.

"Yes, the kang head and the kang tip are so far away, how can she reach it?" Zhou Chen also thought of this question.

Zhou Wanwan sighed beside him, I'm here, I have a question to ask me, what are you trying to figure out?

"I'll crawl, crawl over." Zhou Wanwan couldn't help but interject.

"You're going to climb?" Zhou Chen asked in surprise

Zhou Wanwan answered him with practical actions, adjusted his little buttocks, climbed to the feet of his brothers, and climbed back.

"We're so smart!" Zhou Chen was so happy that he rolled around Zhou Wanwan twice, Zhou Yang was afraid of freezing his sister and hurriedly dragged the two back, and Zhou Chen rolled twice a little before stopping.

"Big brother, you said that malt milk essence is really a good thing, you see that before you didn't eat it, like Liuya, you can't do anything, you see it's only been a few days, you can talk, you can sit, and now you can climb! I heard Aunt Liu say that his dog is almost two years old before he can climb, so he is still a kid. ”

"It's not, look at Nannan's little face, these days are getting fatter and fatter day by day, and she is more energetic." Zhou Yang also felt that this malt milk essence was really magical.

Zhou Wanwan listened straight to the pillow, big brother and second brother, don't blindly worship malt cream, okay? I'm at the level of a normal child, and I'm lagging a little behind. You compare the children in the disaster area who have never eaten a mouthful of milk and can't drink rice soup in the famine year with me, and they are still proud, and I blush.

"Malt cream, hide it." Zhou Wanwan decided to get the conversation of the brothers to the point.

"Yes, malt cream can't be kept at home anymore." Zhou Yang also realized the seriousness of the problem, "And those wheat, let's eat them quickly, and it is safest to put them in our stomachs." ”

So the three brothers and sisters hid under the covers and squeaked and chewed on the grains of wheat. Zhou Chen and Zhou Yang chewed, and Zhou Wanwan was forced to feed mouth-to-mouth by the two of them in turn. These days, I was forced to be fed like this every day, and Zhou Wanwan got used to it, thinking that I was also fed like this by my brothers when I was a child, and Zhou Wanwan had no psychological barriers.

In the sixties and seventies, and even before in China, it became the most common thing for many people to be raised like this, and then to feed their younger siblings and children like this, from generation to generation. Unhygienic? Who do you see fed to death like this? Besides, in the face of life, what is there to fear?

While eating, the brothers discussed the matter of malt milk essence, "You don't care, leave it to me, I promise that no one can find it." Zhou Chen said in a big way.

Zhou Yang thought about it and handed it over to his younger brother, he was not at home all day, and it was indeed more appropriate to hand over this matter to Zhou Chen. And although Zhou Chen is young, he is very reliable, which is to say that one is one's character. He said that there was no problem, and he could leave it to him with confidence, and he never let Zhou Yang worry about it.

"They also messed up the boxes that Mom had sorted out......" After being silent for a while, Zhou Chen suddenly whispered.

"Hmm......" Zhou Yang's voice was also muffled.

Zhou Wanwan was very sensitive to capturing useful information, could it be that after her mother left, the brothers were reluctant to go through her and sort out the boxes? Do you want to leave more traces of your mother? So can she do something and take the opportunity to carry something?

"Tomorrow, you can take care of it, Mom doesn't like things to put in a mess."

"Well......" Zhou Chen responded for a long time, listening to the sound was normal, but Zhou Wanwan knew that the second brother was crying.

After a long while, Zhou Yang said, "Don't beat Xiaoxia tomorrow." She was also forced by her aunt. ”

"Don't care! I can't beat her! She didn't say that her aunt could know? She has a grudge against us, huh? I can't see that there is a little bit of goodness, do you listen to what she said? What is her name? ”

Zhou Yang didn't speak, and sighed heavily.

Early the next morning, Zhou Xia was beaten by Zhou Chen. Wang Fengying and Zhou Juan, who vowed to support her yesterday, watched from the side and didn't say a word.

Mrs. Zhou's mother and daughter also had gloomy faces, and even Zhou Hongying didn't say anything about Zhou Chen's brothers and sisters.

Qian Yan's feet were still red and swollen, but fortunately they didn't hurt so much, she lay on the kang with purple potion, nibbling on dried sweet potatoes, and proudly enjoying the envious eyes of Zhou Xia and Zhou Ling.

Zhou Chen put Zhou Wanwan on the kang and let her climb, Zhou Wanwan just learned a new skill, and she showed off with her second brother very much, and climbed very happily.

The Zhou family noticed this silent child for the first time since Zhou Wanwan was thrown away and picked up.

Only after this look did I find that in just one month, Zhou Wanwan has undergone almost reborn changes. The sunken cheeks bulged, white and tender, the hungry eyes became lively, black and watery, the small body that was originally thin and only a handful of bones was also fleshy, looking at the smooth one she climbed, the little arms and legs must be very energetic.

"Oh my god! These five girls are a lot of fun! Wang Fengying said in surprise. The child who almost starved to death earlier, only a few days ago, he was white and fat, who would believe that he didn't eat malt milk.

The others obviously thought of this layer as well, but yesterday they were tumbling in the sky and the earth, and they didn't find anything, and now they have no basis for anything, and Mrs. Zhou's mother and daughter have nothing to say for a while. Wang Fengying didn't think of any good way, so she could only point to Zhou Chen with words.

Li Guizhi looked at the little daughter in her arms, who was only ten days younger than Zhou Wan, and her eyes were red. Zhou Lan can't turn over now, her neck is so soft that she can't support her head, and she has no strength to cry when she is hungry, so she can only chirp twice like a little mouse. It's useless for her to be a mother, and the child's rations can't be saved.

Looking at Zhou Wanwan, who climbed from the kang to the side of the kang and threw herself into Zhou Chen's arms without difficulty, Li Guizhi was a little resentful, the same family, Chief Shen gave malt milk essence, then there should be a share of her Zhou Lan, why should she give Wuya to eat alone, and her Liuya can't catch a mouthful?

Last night, although she didn't follow to rummage, in fact, she hoped that Mrs. Zhou would find the malt milk essence more than anyone else, and if she found it, she could give a little bit to Zhou Lan, even if it was a few bites, and let the child eat enough......

"Our six lives are hard......" Li Guizhi read a sentence in a low voice, no one heard it, and no one paid attention to her little thoughts.

Because of the effect of the spatial spiritual liquid, the Zhou Chen brothers and sisters, who were more sensitive than others, heard it, but they didn't pay attention to it. Who in this family has a worse life than them? Who will take care of them when they are suffering? Li Guizhi's kudzu powder, they have never tasted a bite.

"I'm sick of it! What are you messing around like a mouse? Stop for a moment! Qian Yan put her feet on her mother's lap and let Mrs. Zhou rub it with frost. After scolding, he was still angry, picked up the broom and pimple at hand and threw it at Zhou Wanwan.

Zhou Chen took a step ahead of her and picked up Zhou Wanwan, and blocked this blow for her sister with her back. Fortunately, Qian Yan was lying down, unable to exert herself, and she wore thick clothes in winter, so she finally didn't hurt Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen looked at Qian Yan, who was staring at him defiantly, and didn't speak, he now felt more and more that he had nothing to say to the rest of the family, and he didn't even want to stay with them at all. If it weren't for the fact that Mrs. Zhou didn't let the kang burn during the day, he was afraid that the West House would freeze his sister, and he wouldn't want to come to the East House.

Zhou Wanwan looked at Qian Yan's swollen and big feet and calves, and gloated in her heart. In her previous life, Qian Yan's feet were also frozen in the winter of this year, and although she was not frozen and crippled, she left sequelae. Every winter and spring, she would get chilblains, red, swollen and purple, painful and itchy, bleeding and watery, even in the summer and autumn when she did not suffer from chilblains, she was fat and fat, and could not recover to the original state, so that she never wore sandals and skirts in her life.

Although it didn't hurt Zhou Chen this time, it doesn't mean that Zhou Wanwan can tolerate her bullying herself casually, especially since she even beat Zhou Chen! Zhou Wanwan smiled and wiped a handful on a small mattress next to the quilt stack at the kang tip, special chili water, colorless and odorless, with a DNA lock attached, only a gift for Qian Yan alone.

Looking at the sky, the sun rose, and the temperature in the house also rose, Zhou Chen hugged his sister back to the West House. The boxes that were turned over yesterday need to be sorted out, there are still a few quilts that have not been dismantled and washed, my sister's small blouse has to be washed, and I have to chop firewood later, even if I don't go to the production team to work, Zhou Chen's day is not easy.

Zhou Wanwan was also very happy to be able to leave the house that was stared at by resentment and calculation at that moment. She actively cooperated with Zhou Chen to work, Zhou Chen took out a baggage, and as soon as she opened it, she made a mess, giggling while making trouble.

Zhou Chen couldn't help it, pinched his sister's tender little face, and refolded the clothes in the baggage appointedly.

Zhou Wanwan shifted her position and crawled to the side of the kang box, she now has the strength in her legs and can stand occasionally for a while. After a lot of effort, Zhou Wanwan finally stood up with the box, and waved her little hand in the open box to confirm that the things were put away, Zhou Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the kang.

In the box, there are two more baggage. One is the clothes of the four siblings, and the other is the shoes they wear in spring and summer. In order not to be suspected, Zhou Wanwan reluctantly added Zhou Xia's share.

Seeing that the New Year is going to be spring, this year the three of them have grown taller, last year's clothes must not be worn, looking at the situation of the Zhou family, no one will care if they have clothes to wear, let alone anyone who will think of making shoes for them.

So Zhou Wanwan added a set of thick sweaters and pants to each of the four brothers and sisters, and added two sets of spring and summer single clothes, and after thinking about it, each of them added a winter blouse to wear during the New Year. The clothes look like common materials, but in fact, when Zhou Wanwan set the attributes of the clothes, the fabrics were set to be much more comfortable and wear-resistant than ordinary clothes, and the appearance was ordinary. Even every outfit has a few patches, and in this era, wearing clothes without patches will attract attention. It's just that the patch is set up with fine stitches and harmonious colors every night, without affecting the appearance at all. Their mother is a well-known skillful daughter-in-law, and no one will suspect anything when it comes to making clothes for her children.

Zhou Wanwan prepared a few more pairs of shoes for himself and his two brothers, and prepared one or two sizes larger than now. In the previous life, the eldest brother often had to go to several houses in order to beg someone to make shoes for their brothers and sisters, and it took a lot of twists and turns, but in this life, she will never let the eldest brother suffer this white eye. Since it is preparing a few things for my brothers and sisters under the banner of my mother, I should prepare more, it is useless for anyone to be envious or unconvinced.
