Chapter 2 The decision to go up the mountain
"As long as our family is together, everything that suffers is said by others, otherwise so many people say that it is better to die, and there is no need to suffer." The sobbing sound was a little louder, but it was really sad.
Zhang Erzhu persuaded people to cry, but persuaded people to cry, and sat beside him helplessly and watched his daughter-in-law cry, seeing that people were crying more and more sad, he couldn't help but say dryly: "Why don't you beat me, just beat me." ”
Li Siniang cried, looked up at Zhang Erzhu, and then there was a bigger cry, Zhang Erzhu almost shrunk his neck to the ground, but he didn't dare to say a word.
Zhang Xiaoman carried two broken bowls to the door, and what he saw was the father and mother who picked it up for nothing, one just cried and the other just watched, a woman's heart is too sensitive, not to mention a pregnant woman, Zhang Erzhu may still be thinking about which sentence he said wrong, how it seems to have provoked someone, Li Siniang is definitely making a fuss to vent it.
Zhang Xiaoman pushed open the door with his foot, "It's time for breakfast." ”
After saying that, he put down the dishes and chopsticks and went out, regardless of the people who were crying in the room still looking at her back with tears in their eyes, and the people who watched shrank their bodies and didn't dare to look at her, both of them were now a little afraid of this eldest daughter who came to life.
Zhang Xiaoman returned to the kitchen and drank a little rice soup, warmed the remaining three bowls of porridge close to the stove, opened the chicken coop and began to touch the eggs to feed the chickens, touching the eggs was taught to her by the fat third aunt, at first Zhang Xiaoman was reluctant to put her hand in, and now she touched the warm chicken butt with chicken feces on the hair, touching the hard end, she would even smile and nod with satisfaction.
Therefore, this hard life not only forces people to adapt quickly, but also makes people learn to be satisfied.
There are two hens in total, one has eggs and one has no eggs, Zhang Xiaoman fenced the one with eggs and let the one without eggs out, and the one that went out had no eggs to find food to eat, and she got some water and a little tender grass until it laid eggs and then let it out, which was afraid that the eggs would be picked up outside and that they would be accidentally trampled on.
After doing these two things and cleaning the yard, Zhang Xiaoman watched the rising sun enter the house and called the three children to have breakfast, after breakfast, Dafu and Erfu will help Zhang Erzhu enter the ground together, Zhang Xiaotao followed her to pull pigweed, and the rest of Li Siniang should stay at home and do some needlework. It's been like this for the past few days.
"Sister......" Zhang Dafu had already woken up when Zhang Xiaoman entered the house, and was dressing his younger brother, and when he saw her, he called timidly, and since Zhang Xiaoman woke up, he didn't dare to look at Zhang Xiaoman's eyes.
Zhang Xiaoman hummed expressionlessly and approached the bed with a wooden plank, Zhang Xiaotao was still asleep soundly after all, Zhang Xiaoman looked at her for a while and took the torn cotton clothes in Zhang Dafu's hand to dress Zhang Xiaofu, Zhang Dafu obediently went to fetch water to wash his face, Zhang Xiaofu called in a daze, "Sister, I'm sleepy......"
"Hmm." Zhang Xiaoman's hands didn't stop, and he said in his mouth, "I won't be sleepy after eating breakfast for a while." ”
Zhang Xiaofu's eyes widened, "Do you still have porridge to drink today?" ”
"Hmm." Suppressing the curvature of the corners of her mouth upturning, Zhang Xiaoman gently replied to this eccentric younger brother, his temperament is really too much like her younger brother in modern times, and he is as simple and cute as him. For this reason, Zhang Xiaoman is heartbroken for the only little brother in that world.
"Big sister...... You're so nice! Zhang Xiaofu stood on the bed just enough to hug Zhang Xiaoman's neck, and arched on her neck like a puppy, soft and glutinous, "I will drink porridge every morning in the future." ”
"Well," Zhang Xiaoman touched Zhang Xiaofu's head, "I drink porridge every morning." ”
The six-year-old boy looks like a four-year-old, with a shriveled figure and a sallow face, although Zhang Xiaoman is only a little better than him, but she still feels uncomfortable when she sees it, she can't help but think of her younger brother who stays in modern times, and she doesn't know how he is doing now alone, he shouldn't have to worry about not having enough to eat, at least he won't be like this little boy who laughs happily just for a bowl of porridge.
And until many years later, Zhang Xiaofu has been in a high position, and his favorite every day is a bowl of light white porridge in the morning, for which he also got a plaque from the emperor, which is written - honest and honest.
Zhang Xiaoman picked up Zhang Xiaofu and put him on the ground, "After drinking porridge, follow my brother and listen to my father." ”
"Hmm!" Zhang Xiaofu nodded heavily, and ran out, "Second brother, the eldest sister hugged me out of bed, the eldest sister hugged me!" She likes me, and she won't leave us behind! Second brother ......"
"Got it, you got it, you run slower, watch your step!" Zhang Dafu smiled and greeted his younger brother and helped her, glanced at Zhang Xiaoman quickly, and then pulled his younger brother to wash his face and eat, "Then you have to listen to the eldest sister, you can't make the eldest sister sad." ”
"Hmm!" Zhang Xiaofu nodded with a smile, picked up the smallest bowl of porridge and began to eat breakfast.
Zhang Dafu patted his little brother's head dotingly, picked up the smaller of the two bowls, and sat on the stool to drink porridge quietly.
Zhang Xiaoman began to ask Zhang Xiaotao to get up, in fact, according to her idea, the child wants to sleep for her, but adults are not worried about a female baby at home, so Zhang Xiaoman had to take her little sister out together, pulling pigweed If you are lucky enough to meet the fruit that can be eaten, it is still relatively happy, so Zhang Xiaotao is also more sticky to her, and she likes to follow Zhang Xiaoman more than Li Siniang.
Because the family prefers girls, Zhang Xiaotao is also quite white, and she usually gets more food from adults, and her face barely feels a little meaty, and it feels good.
Zhang Xiaotao opened her eyes and saw that it was her favorite eldest sister, and opened her hands to ask for a hug, "Eldest sister......"
At the beginning, Zhang Xiaoman's temperament would never be a child, but now it is naturally much better, giving Zhang Xiaotao a big hug, one big and one small muttering while talking and dressing, this morning is quite happy.
After that, Zhang Dafu and Zhang Xiaofu followed Zhang Erzhu to carry the hoe into the ground, and Zhang Xiaoman took Zhang Xiaotao to carry the back basket up the mountain to pull the pigweed. Li Siniang watched her leave without saying anything, but finally sighed and sat back, and after shedding tears for a long time, she slowly began to mend Xiaoman's tattered clothes.
Zhang Xiaoman didn't grind around the village today, she grabbed her little sister's hand and walked slowly up the mountain, no matter what, she decided to explore the situation first, if the mountain is really dangerous and there is nothing to eat, then go back and think about it, she is a white-collar worker in the 21st century can't just live in vain and be starved back, not to mention whether she can go back depends on what God thinks.
Unexpectedly, the family's life-saving food was found by her unintentionally after several twists and turns.
