Chapter 544

People who have only come out of the three-year famine dare not have the luxury of having good food, as long as they do not starve to death, it is better than anything.

Anyway, it's all eaten, didn't she eat it well when she ate corn cob acorn noodles back then, but now she really doesn't dare to be picky about food and clothing.

Smiled and shook his head, "Grandpa, what's that, don't every family live like this, and if there is food to eat, it's much better than before......"

Shuilian's sensibility made the old man a little moved.

Liang Shouwang touched her head, "Girl, you can't look at things like this, when grandpa lived by himself in the past, he didn't feel anything hungry and full."

But you can't, when you're still growing your body, if you don't eat something good, maybe this one won't be able to rise, you see that you are not much different from other people's red plums, and people are more than a head taller than you......"

Shuilian smiled and took the old man's hand, "Grandpa, I can't blame you for this, who doesn't know what year it was a few years ago, I'm lucky to be alive."

Now the life is very good, living with grandpa, I don't have to worry about when I will be beaten, and I don't have to go to the mountains to collect firewood in the cold. ”

This water lotus knows this best, people are afraid of comparison, Wang Mei and her family raised her, she remembers, although it is not good for her, but she is still alive, I don't know how much luckier than those who starved to death.

But when she got to the old man, she knew what relatives were, and they were also not related by blood.

The old man shook his head helplessly, "The children's family, you know what it means to enjoy happiness, when you are older, maybe the future will be better, you can eat white flour steamed buns every day, and there is meat to eat, then it is called Xiangfu, where is this......"

After boiling the fish soup, she made vegetable porridge again, so that the meat and vegetables are matched and there is food, even if you can't eat enough, you can mix water and be full, at least the nutrition is enough.

The old man drank a bowl of fish soup, and he kept clicking his lips when he was finished.

"It's delicious, it's been a long time since I've drunk such a fresh fish soup......"

Shuilian was really curious about the old man's previous life.

Everyone knew each other before, and she had heard about their family, but she didn't know it from the person concerned, and she still didn't believe it.

He glanced up at Liang Shouwang, "Grandpa, it is said that you used to live alone, and your income was not small, at least you can drink a delicious fish soup, you still have several children, and a family is not too big to have a fingernail cover that is enough for you to drink a pot of old age......"

Liang Shouwang smiled bitterly and sighed at the same time, "Girl, you don't know, your three aunts' families are really difficult, there are many children, and there are few strong laborers, so it is inevitable that these days will be a little difficult."

In the past, grandpa had tickets and gave them as many as possible, as for your uncle, he didn't need my heart, he was at least a worker in the city, and there was only one girl and one boy in the family, and it should be no problem for two adults to raise two small ones, and it was already good without my help......"

Yuxi sighed secretly in his heart, although he was telling the truth, he could also see from the side that this old man was really miserable.

This is obviously the character of a scalper, eating grass, squeezing out is milk, not to mention that the old man is still a semi-disabled person, but this is always someone else's children, and she can't say anything.

The old man took a sip of vegetable porridge and said, "Actually, your uncle is not easy, in the early years, he went out with his cousin to be an apprentice to others, and he suffered a lot, and when New China was founded, he had the opportunity to become a formal worker."

married a daughter-in-law and had a child or something, and the family didn't help him much, anyway, it all relied on his own ability.

Speaking from the heart, it's not easy for them to live in the city by themselves, and I'm too old to help much, so I won't make trouble for them.

If you have time to write a letter and come back, you can save the round-trip travel fee to buy some food for the children, as long as you come to see me during the New Year, I will be satisfied......"

The old man's words were in Shuilian's ears, why did he feel so desolate, and he was not too far away, they were all in the same city, alas, but everyone was the old man's children, and he didn't pick her and there was nothing to say.

"Grandpa, I'll boil water later, and the two of us take a hot bath, otherwise there will be more and more lice on this body, and all the good things on our bodies will be eaten by this bug."

I sighed in my heart, when I first came, she was disgusted when she saw lice, but after a long time, it was like that.

There are not so many changes of clothes, and there are not such good bathing conditions, it is good not to be hungry, and she doesn't dare to dislike the rest now.

Speaking of bathing, Liang Shouwang has no objection, "Well, you should clean up your personal hygiene."

When we were in the army, we definitely didn't have time to take care of this when we were marching and fighting, but when we arrived at the resting place, we still tried to take a shower.

After taking a bath, the whole person became comfortable and energetic.

In the future, our grandfather and I will also wash every once in a while, anyway, my granddaughter will boil water.

Oh, I also enjoy it, when my grandfather used to live by himself, he was too lazy to move, and this day was also a day by day, but now it is different, with our water lotus in charge, we have to maintain good hygiene. ”

When Shuilian was taking a bath, she noticed that the birthmark on her chest seemed to have changed color.

It used to be a little dark red, but now it has become much more vivid, and the lotus petals that were originally missing a corner seem to have begun to grow.

Although she feels a little weird, she hasn't changed much at the moment, except for yesterday's fever, everything else is fine.

Shaking her head, not wanting to study the birthmark any more, she let out a long sigh as she looked at the corpses of lice floating on the surface of the water in the basin.

Now she's a lot calmer.

Liang Shouwang, who was guarding the door, said, "Grandpa, is there a way to make the lice in the hair gone?" ”

Liang Shouwang sighed, "This is a bit difficult, wait for tomorrow grandpa to ask someone, I heard that they are all smeared on the head with chalk dipped in medicine, and grandpa will give you tomorrow." ”

When the two of them took a bath and lay on the hot kang refreshingly, even Shuilian herself couldn't help but smile and bend her eyebrows, it was really comfortable to take a bath.

"Grandpa, let's catch the lice in the padded jacket first, so that the bath will not be in vain, and I will take the clothes I changed to wash tomorrow."

The oil lamp that had not been lit for a long time was lit at home, and in the dim light, both heads were busy working on the padded jackets in their hands.

looked at the padded jacket in his hand, which could no longer be seen, and sighed secretly in his heart.

"Grandpa, when you have money in the future, I'll buy you a lot of new clothes to wear, let's buy clothes in a wardrobe and no longer worry about clothes getting wet and having nothing to wear."

Listening to the little granddaughter's fairy tales, Liang Shouwang just smiled and nodded, not taking it seriously.

He didn't dare to hope for good clothes, he would be able to eat enough in the future, and he would already be very satisfied if he could eat two more meals of meat.
