Early the next morning, Li Yihe brought a few cornmeal tortillas into the mountain, and he was going to take his wife and Changsheng brother to the county tomorrow, thinking about seeing if he could catch a bigger prey today.

I heard that this road has been a lot more peaceful recently, and Fu Shi moved the idea of going into the city to see the tricks.

After Li Xiaoran and her two brothers finished practicing, they went home for breakfast, and when they saw that it was coarse cornmeal porridge again, she could only sigh silently in her heart, "Si'er and Ran'er have eaten." Fu brought the porridge to the table, and in the middle of the table was a large bowl with a few pickle sticks, and next to it was a plate with yellow corn flour on top.

A few brothers are tired from practicing, and they eat sweetly, but these are in their mouths but they can't swallow, this cornmeal is too rough, where can it be ground with a stone mill, she really misses the fine cornmeal processed by modern machines.

Seeing that she didn't eat, Fu Shi touched her head and asked softly, "Why doesn't Ran'er eat it?" Don't you like to eat? Drink a bowl of porridge, at noon, my mother will make rabbit stewed potatoes, and there is half a pickled rabbit, and my mother will make it for you to eat. ”

Li Xiaoran was a little embarrassed, he thought that he was very adaptable and had a little pride, but he didn't expect that after only two months, he couldn't bear this coarse food, to put it bluntly, because there was hope for family life. "No, I'm thinking, I want to go to the county with my father and mother tomorrow."

She told a small lie, but she did want to see it, and if she wanted to understand this dynasty, she had to go out and see it more, and the descriptions of others were not as intuitive as her own personal experience.

Fu Shi was a little hesitant, it was too far to go to the county, and his daughter was too young. She watched as both the eldest and younger sons slowed down their meals, pricked up their ears to listen to their mother and daughter, and felt that if she couldn't bring only one, the children would be unhappy and think that their father and mother were too partial.

"Let's discuss this matter when your father comes back!" She had no choice but to push it all to Li Yihe.

Li Xiaoran glanced at her brothers, and knew that this matter could not be forced, after eating, Li Xiaoran helped clean up the table and wash the dishes, she washed her hands and entered the room, and saw that Fu Shi was spreading a few handkerchiefs and an embroidered screen embroidered these days on the kang, ready to bring them to the county tomorrow.

The patterns on the embroidered screen are very intricate and exquisite, the colors are gorgeous, and they are also the appearance of flowers blooming richly, but the patterns on the previous handkerchief are more realistic. Li Xiaoran picked it up and looked at it, and couldn't help but exhale softly, the back of this was also exactly the same pattern, her eyes widened in surprise, "Mother, you are simply amazing, this is double-sided embroidery, it's so beautiful!" ”

She decided, she also wanted to learn embroidery.

She imagined that when she found Yongning in the future and showed him his embroidery, his expression of amazement.

Fu Shi looked at her daughter's expression very richly, grinning happily for a while, and pouting in displeasure with a frown, she couldn't help but interrupt her reverie curiously, and laughed and teased her, "What is Ran'er thinking?" The face will be red and black? ”

Li Xiaoran smiled hesitantly, and said arrogantly with his little hands behind his back: "I won't sue you." ”

But I was a little surprised in my heart, when did I have such a secret of my feelings in this family. However, this feeling of having family care and warmth is really good!

She threw herself into Fu Shi's arms, soft and coquettish, "Mother......" Fu Shi responded with a smile, "Hey! She called "Niang...... again" Fu Shi responded with "hey", Li Xiaoran giggled happily, and kept shouting "Niang, Niangniang......"

"Mother, why do you only embroider this one pattern?" Li Xiaoran made enough trouble, picked up these handkerchiefs, and looked carefully, some of them were given by the embroidery village, but the best thing was the rich and rich handkerchief embroidered by Fu's family, which was said to sell very well in the embroidery village, so Fu embroidered several pieces.

Fu Shi blushed, hugged his daughter and said with a distant look: "There were a lot of patterns in the mother's meeting before, but I haven't embroidered for more than ten years, and the rest are not too clear, only this one is because I embroidered a lot at the beginning, but I remember it well." ”

Li Xiaoran felt that her mother must have had a story before, but it was a pity that she couldn't sue herself.

It's actually not difficult to draw patterns, it's just that she only drew a few strokes at random when Ye Zimo was resting, is it really good to paint a high-profile picture to Fu Shi? Otherwise, find an excuse to sue Sù Daddy, so that they won't suspect anything in the future.

Fu Shi packed up the embroidery work, and picked up a single coat to mend it, this is the eldest brother's gown, which is already patched and patched, and the original fabric can hardly be seen, she looked at it and snatched it, pouting and said: "Mother, it's all broken like this, don't make up for it, other people's children don't wear such torn clothes." ”

These days, she and Li Xuesi are digging vegetables outside, and they can often meet children in the same village, most of whom are also wearing patched clothes, but almost all of them are patched.

Fu Shi was stunned, a trace of apology flashed in his eyes, and he said softly: "Mother has made it up, give it to your eldest brother when he works." When my mother goes back to the county to sell embroidery, I will make a new gown for each of you. ”

Li Xiaoran also realized that the behavior just now was inappropriate, and the family was not willing to make them new clothes because they had money, but they really didn't have it. Father and mother are ambitious again, and they refuse to accept Ye Changsheng's help, in his words: "Saving the emergency is not helping the poor, Brother Changsheng, I will be ashamed and shameless if you are like this again, the eldest husband is alive and can't support his family, what's the point of living, it's better to find a crooked neck tree and hang himself." ”

"I'm sorry, mother, I'm also afraid that my eldest brother will be laughed at, you just sell the embroidery job to make new clothes for the eldest brother and the second brother, the eldest brother has grown up, the second brother still has to study, and if he wears too worn, he will be ridiculed. My little brother and I are still young, and we play all day long, so we don't need to wear new ones. "Didn't the ancients say that knowing mistakes can be corrected, and being good is great! She corrected her attitude immediately if she was wrong.

Fu Shi hugged his daughter and said with great relief: "Don't blame Ran'er, it's my father and mother who didn't do well." Ran Er rest assured, the embroidery work done by her mother can be sold at a high price, and when the time comes, she will make new clothes for a few of you, and she will not let others laugh at your brothers and sisters. ”

Fu Shi is a person who loves to take responsibility for everything, Li Xiaoran grinned helplessly, and changed the topic, "Mother, my little brother and I are going out to dig vegetables, let's eat vegetable dumplings at night!" ”

Vegetable dumplings are dead bread made with cornmeal and noodles, wrapped with wild vegetables and filled, and steamed in a pot.

Fu Shi nodded her forehead, "Ran'er is a little gluttonous cat, okay, go, my mother has to rush to embroider today." Li Xiaoran stood up and walked out, and when he walked to the door, Fu Shi told again: "Don't go far, let your eldest brother lead it." ”
