Chapter 10: Cousin's Cherry
Gu Shulan and the daughter of the second sister-in-law cook for the two of them, this girl is sixteen years old, very clever and can work, Yang Tianxiang is good to this niece, this girl is much stronger than her mother, she is also stronger than the second girl, Gu Shulan also feels that this girl is not just a little stronger than her mother's quality.
Sorghum rice, millet rice, a large bowl of red pickles, and a small bowl of chicken head fish.
The younger brother Dashan was hungry for a long time, and Yang Liu was also hungry, so he secretly went to the kitchen to see if the food was cooked. The rice is cooking in the pot, and it smells like sorghum rice, and the millet is still in the scoop, and it has not yet been put into the pot.
Yang Liu saw that the kitchen was smooth, there was not even a cupboard, where did he get to eat, and hurriedly retracted his head.
When Yang Liu came back, he asked Dashan, "Are you still hungry?" ”
"Sister, I'm starving." Oyama shed tears.
"Are you hungry? Don't have anything to eat at home? "Yang Liu is strange, have the two families been together, I heard that Yang Tianxiang's parents died and lived with his second brother, people in their thirties, they have been liberated for several years, and his brother and sister-in-law have not liberated him? Why are you still with a sister-in-law who treats him badly like that? His own children are hungry, so he doesn't care at all?
Confused the willow again.
Three-year-old Dashan can't say anything, his tongue is still a little big, no wonder this Dashan doesn't like to talk, it turns out that his tongue is not as flexible as others, and Shicai didn't hear it in a panic.
Thinking that the adults are going to pull wheat, there must be green wheat ears on the field, the green wheat ears are very delicious, look at the little girl on the kang sleeping soundly, the aunt did not come out to cook, Yang Liu does not understand which of them is partnering with whom to farm, whether they are divided or not, and the mountains will not say.
Yang Liu wants to have an aunt in the opposite room, she will definitely take a look when the little girl cries, she is not familiar with the aunt, she is embarrassed to entrust her to watch the child, I believe that the aunt will definitely see it.
Pulled the mountain and let him lead the field, the field of threshing wheat is on the empty field on the edge of the alley out of the front door, it must have just started to pull the wheat, the wheat pile is not much bigger, drink! There are really a lot of green wheat ears, and the willow is happy when he sees it.
Hurriedly went to smoke the green wheat ears, the wheat grains pinched a pulp, burned must be particularly fragrant, smoked a big pinch, put it on the back, and pulled the dry firewood and grass leaves everywhere, the willow knew how the wheat ears were burned, when he was four years old, he couldn't eat enough with his stepmother, and he also ran to the ground to find the green wheat ears to burn and eat.
It's like Zhu Hongwu eating jade and white jade soup, everything is fragrant when he is hungry, but he didn't expect that the kung fu he practiced when he was a child became a technique for curing hunger.
Fire is needed to burn ears of wheat, so what is used to light the fire at this time? She couldn't ask directly, she didn't know if Dashan would say to her family: "Dashan, you go to find Huo'er." ”
Dashan hesitated, turned around and went home.
After a while, he ran back with a round box in his hand: "Sister, here you go." ”
At first glance, the outside of the box was rough. It's like a coarse grinding wheel, it seems to be stained with a lot of sand particles, and it hurts to touch it, although I haven't seen this thing, I understand it when I think about it, this is the original foreign fire box, take a match and wipe the foreign fire head up, and the foreign fire will be rowed.
After all, she has done the work of adults, and she is very skilled in rowing a foreign fire, and when it clicks, the firewood pile is lit, and the firewood and grass are also wet, and immediately there is smoke, and the mountain wants to run back over the box, and the willow is very strange, what kind of treasure does this kid take that thing for?
He ran back out of breath, and Yang Liu asked him, "What are you doing in a hurry to send it back?" What if it's not cooked? ”
Dashan approached her and whispered: "Auntie's things are not allowed to be moved by others, there is no foreign fire in our house, Auntie will be unhappy to see it, and she can't let her find out." The big tongue muttered a few words, and Yang Liu could understand it, the aunt was very lonely, and she had heard her grandmother say it.
How does such a character send people under the fence, living in such a small space with his brother and daughter-in-law, and there is no time when the chopsticks hit the bowl? I heard my grandmother say that Gu Shulan is very good to this eldest sister and this nephew, and has been taking care of her until she is old, Yang Liu's mother is ten years younger than this eldest sister, Yang Liu is ten years younger than her aunt's cousin, her cousin graduated from primary school and was admitted to the provincial middle school, her home is ten miles away from the school, she runs home every day to study, and she comes back at noon and evening.
Yang Liu was thinking about what his grandmother said, when he heard a shout: "Dashan, change Ling's ......"
Hearing the shout, Yang Liu alertly pulled the mountain and avoided the burning ears of wheat two steps away.
Then I heard the shout of the mountain: "Cousin! Dashan's voice was simple, and Yang Liu felt that this little brother was not dexterous.
Dashan's shout told him that Yang Liulai was Wang Zhenqing, the son of his aunt, and looked up: "Standing in front of me is a handsome young man, medium height, wearing a green cloth stand-up collar cardigan, not fat or thin, just enough to be fit, the complexion is not black or white, the big eyes under the silkworm eyebrows are blazing, the water chestnut mouth is not big or small under the nose, the slightly long face is just right, the round chin and the big eyes with a little blister are set off by the person's face is particularly loyal, and he is smiling slightly at them. Reach into your bag to find something.
"Give." Just a simple word, he handed over two small paper bags in his hand, Dashan took it first, saw that his fingers touched it, but he didn't open it, Yang Liu only took it, said thank you, and the cousin smiled and walked briskly.
Dashan has already opened the paper bag: "Sister, it's a cherry!" Dashan shouted in surprise, Yang Liu handed the paper bag to Dashan, Dashan shook his head, Yang Liu stuffed the paper bag into the pocket of Dashan's short-sleeved gown, Dashan smiled embarrassedly, meaning to accept it.
At this time, the fire of burning the ears of wheat had been extinguished, and the cousin might not have seen them burn the ears of wheat, because as soon as the cousin called them, Yang Liu took two steps with a weak heart, afraid that the cousin would tell the aunt that they burned the ears of wheat and the aunt would find out that they had made her foreign fire, wouldn't they have betrayed the mountain, and looked at the mountain very timidly, and looked like he was born to everyone, was it so weak to be subdued?
There were more than a dozen cherries in the paper bag, and Dashan put one in his mouth and stretched out his hand: "Give, sister." "This kid's words are also simple.
Yang Liu shook his head: "It's very sour, I don't like to eat it, so let's eat it." "How can you eat that thing like a child, the pot has been changed, this child has a bit of an old-fashioned adult taste, that's what children like, it's just right to coax this little brother.
Dashan wrapped the paper bag, shyly put it in his pocket, and ate a cherry, maybe he was even hungrier, right? The eyes of the mountain were fixed on the burned ears of wheat, and the fire was extinguished, and Yang Liu found a wooden stick to pick up the ash pile, and some of the ears of wheat were not yet burned black.
In fact, just like raw wheat grains should be full, she did not eat less raw wheat grains, raw sweet potatoes, raw corn, stepmother often found fault and did not give her food, her father was not at home all the year round, if she did not have her own grandmother to take care of her, she would not starve to death and be skinny, and her stepmother even gave birth to a child, because there was no child, she was born one after another, and her father made a fortune as a bricklayer, and she was not afraid of fines, just wanted to have a son.
is so rich, and her stepmother is reluctant to give her food, she gave birth to a girl, so she scolded the street every day, scolding herself for taking up her child's place, if there was no damn girl, her child would be an only child, and the reward of thousands of yuan would have made the nemesis girl ruined.
Thinking of that stepmother, her teeth rattled.
