This quarrel caused by small bread finally ended in the anger of my grandparents and the scolding of my eldest uncle and second uncle. But Xiaoju's heart that has relaxed since she came to her grandmother's house and felt the care and love of her grandparents and several uncles has tightened up again.

Xiao Ju scolded in the lobby, cried a little, and fell into chaos, so he drank a few sips of the bowl of paste in front of him, and asked Zhuang Zhuang to quickly finish the paste, and took the small piece of bread, and the two sisters and brothers quietly returned to the room where they slept in the past few days.

Zhuang Zhuang is really good to Xiaoju's sister, and as soon as he returned to the room, he divided the small dough cake he was holding in his hand into two halves and handed half to Xiaoju. Xiao Ju wanted to miss it, but when she saw Zhuangzhuang's bright, expectant eyes, the ghost sent her to take the small half of the bread.

Zhuang Zhuang saw his sister take the dough, and immediately began to bite his small half of the dough with a smile, with a satisfied face. But Xiaoju didn't have a strong child's heart, at this time she pricked up her ears and listened carefully to the voices coming from the lobby.

You must know that the room where she slept with Xiao Ju Niang and Zhuang Zhuang happened to be the wing room on the left side of the lobby, and there was only a wall between it and the lobby, and any sound in the lobby could be heard clearly.

After the voices in the lobby disappeared, Xiao Juniang entered the room with a heavy face. Xiao Ju saw the mother who looked a little back in Hujiazhuang, and she was worried and a little scared. Hurriedly rubbed over and asked cautiously: "Mother, eldest uncle, is the second uncle okay?" ”

When Xiao Ju Niang heard Xiao Ju's question, she said with some hatred: "What is the matter with them? Eventually, your two uncles scolded them and let them go back to their rooms! Today's incident, in the end, is because our mother came here and ate their share of rations, and used the child's affairs to make a fuss! ”

"Mother, then let's go to Huaxian County tomorrow, right?" Xiao Ju listened to her mother's words, and her heart became a little uncomfortable.

"Well, I'll talk to my grandparents later! You sleep well with your strength, and tomorrow you will have the strength to walk. Xiao Ju Niang thought about it, told Xiao Ju, and then turned around and walked out of the room.

And Zhuang Zhuang showed a big smile on his face when he heard his mother and sister say that they were going to Huaxian County tomorrow. You know, Dad is in Huaxian County! And I heard Hu Tianhu, who has been to Huaxian County, say that there are many delicious and fun things to sell in Huaxian County. He had wanted to see it for a long time.

Xiao Ju's heart was very annoying, I thought that my grandparents and uncles were so good to them, so I stayed here for a few more days, and then tried to persuade my grandparents and a few uncles to leave together, and when there were many people, I didn't have to go to Huaxian, it was best to leave Henan and Shaanxi.

But looking at this situation, she is still too naïve. The only thing that can be done at the moment is to go to Huaxian County first. At that time, I secretly bought a small house, and the family hid in it, and then tried to get some food and noodles out of the space, and then spent this famine year. Because if you go to escape with the flow in another half a year, there will be chaos everywhere, and she and Zhuang Zhuang are so small, how can they move? If you don't starve, you have to die under the rebels.

After coaxing Zhuang Zhuang to sleep, Xiao Ju hid on the kang and thought nonsense. I don't even know when my mother will return to the room. When it was almost dawn, I fell asleep in a daze, and I didn't wake up until nearly noon.

When she opened her eyes, she found that her mother and Zhuang Zhuang were not in the room, so she got up, put on the ragged clothes very neatly, and went out of the room and walked towards the kitchen. She wanted to go to the kitchen and get some hot water to clean herself, a little habit that she had brought with her previous life. Xiao Juniang also laughed at her, it was Yahuan's life, and Miss's body was poor and exquisite. It's okay to clean it with cold water, and it takes firewood and time to boil hot water!

Walking to the kitchen door, Xiao Ju was about to raise her feet and step through the threshold to enter, but she suddenly heard the words from inside, as if she was talking about her mother, so she retracted her steps and stood quietly in the dark next to the kitchen door.

"Second sister-in-law, when did you say that the sister-in-law and her two children will leave? If we continue like this, will we not take up all our rations?

Our family's harvest this year is only 30%, and we haven't paid the public grain yet! When the public grain is handed over, even the accumulated grain from previous years may have to be filled! Their family of three is eating here, when is this a head? A female voice with a crisp sound.

"Brother and sister, I think it's a little hanging! You see how they are dressed in tatters, I guess the family can't live anymore, so they go back to their parents' house to eat! The voice of the woman, who was called the second sister-in-law, was somewhat like the voice of the second aunt who scolded the eldest aunt last night.

"Second sister-in-law, what should I do? Daddy is really eccentric! My own grandchildren all follow the adults to eat two meals a day, but they eat bread for the grandson who is separated by a layer. Originally, there was not much white noodles left at home, and if this continues, our children will not be able to taste a bite this year! ”

"Brother and sister, who made our family master the father and mother? However, a daughter-in-law can't be compared with a daughter, and I don't care about it, but grandchildren are always the seed of their Liu family, right? Could it be that they can't even compare to those two foreign species?"

“……”

“……”

“……”

“……”

Xiao Ju listened to what was said more and more unlikely, and wanted to rush in and scold these relatives who looked at people with their eyes, but when she thought of her mother, she quietly left the kitchen door and walked towards the room where she had lived in the past few days. Unexpectedly, as soon as Xiaoju entered the room, she saw her mother packing her things, and Zhuang Zhuang was also helping on the side.

When Xiao Ju Niang saw Xiao Ju, she was about to ask her to pack up her things, eat lunch and prepare to go to Huaxian. If you walk fast, you should be in the city in less than three minutes.

But when he looked up to greet Xiaoju, he found that his daughter was a little depressed. I couldn't help but ask worriedly: "Xiaoju, what's wrong?" Is there something uncomfortable? I want to talk to my mother! Or we'll postpone it for another two days! ”

"No, mother, let's go right away! Leave without lunch! When Xiao Ju heard this, she came back to her senses and said with some fierce reactions.

"What's wrong? Did someone say something nasty to you? Sue sù mother, mother to find them to settle accounts! When Xiao Ju Niang heard this, her face immediately darkened, and she put the clothes that were being stacked in her hand hard, and said a little fiercely. You can do anything to her, but this pair of children is her backscale, not to mention touching, even if she is wronged, she has to go to that person desperately.

"It's okay! Mother! Collect your stuff and let's go! I don't want to stay here at all! Xiao Ju was blushing by her mother's heartfelt concern, and she was busy covering up to get her burden.

"Mother, listen to Sister, I don't want to eat grandma's small bread! Let's go to Huaxian to find Daddy! Zhuang Zhuang saw that his sister was unhappy, and he was not happy either, so he was busy holding Xiao Ju Niang's arm and shaking and screaming. In his little heart, Sister A is much more important than a small cake.

When Xiao Ju Niang took a pair of children to her father's room to say goodbye, Xiao Ju saw that her grandparents' eyes were red, especially her grandmother, who pulled Xiao Ju Niang and asked her to eat lunch before leaving. also scolded his grandfather while shedding tears, he didn't take care of the house, and even his daughter came back to live for a few days, and the people in the family couldn't tolerate it.

Xiao Juniang listened, and the tears kept flowing out. Xiaoju and Zhuang Zhuang snuggled tightly to her mother's side. When there was chaos in this room, the voice of the little uncle Liu Zhu came from the courtyard: "Dad, the chief of the armor is here!" ”

When my grandfather heard this, he hurriedly wiped his tears and said to Xiao Juniang: "Girl, you wait!" I'll go out first and see what's going on with the armor chief! You talk to your mother again! I haven't come back for a few years, and I've only been living for so many days and I'm leaving, your mother will complain about Dad! ”

After Xiao Ju saw her grandfather say these words, she hurried out of the room and walked towards the courtyard. Xiaoju saw that her mother was crying and talking to her grandmother, and she didn't care about their two sisters and brothers! Hurriedly holding his strong little hand, he slowly moved to the big window in the room, and quietly used his fingers to break a hole in the window paper, and looked into the courtyard through the small hole.

She saw her grandfather greet a skinny old man who was slightly better dressed than her grandfather, and soon the two of them were walking towards the lobby. In about ten minutes, the thin old man came out of the lobby, and my grandfather followed behind with a sad face.

When my grandfather returned to the room again, he kept sighing. Grandma and Xiao Juniang had already stopped talking in private and looked at him with concern. Xiao Ju had already pricked up her ears.

"Is this still not going to keep people alive? In the first half of this year, there has been no rain since the beginning of spring, and the grain harvest in the field is only 30%, and there is no rain in the second half of the year, and the wheat seedlings in the field are not even, and it seems that it is difficult to say whether there is a harvest or not, but the government still has to pay for grain according to the good harvest every year! Grandpa sighed.

"Old man, what then?" Grandma is also in a hurry.

"How dare you not pay the public rations? I had to take it out of the kiln when the year was good, and hand it over to the kiln! I hope there will be rain in the second half of the year, so there will be some harvest! In this way, you will be able to survive this year! Grandpa said helplessly.

"If it doesn't rain and all the food is handed over, what will we do with our family?" Now my grandmother panicked!

"It's better than being shot now, right? As for the future, we will talk about it later! Grandpa said with some annoyance.

When Xiao Ju Niang heard this, she didn't dare to stay at her parents' house with a pair of children, you must know that their family of three has a lot of chewing a day, and it is better to help their parents save some points, not to mention that there are so many pairs of eyes staring at them with red eyes!

Because of this sudden grain payment incident, my grandfather and grandmother didn't keep Xiao Ju Niang anymore. But they still left them for lunch before asking their uncle to set a donkey cart and send it to Huaxian County.
