Chapter 513: Can't Cry
Ye Jinyu looked down at Duo'er again, it turned out that Duo'er also had patches on the pants she was wearing, but not as many as her mother's, and the sewing was so conspicuous, so she didn't pay attention to it in the yard of her house just now.
Ye Jinyu looked at Xiao Huang at his feet, not like he was going to bite her, so he took a few steps closer to the woman, "Eldest sister, I want to come to you to borrow a fire, I want to cook, but there is no fire at home." ”
The woman leaned against the door frame and took a few breaths, and instructed Duo'er: "Duo'er, you go, bring the fire in the house to Sister Si, so that she can live a good life and cook." ”
"Hey," Ye Jinyu replied happily,
jumped and walked towards the house, Ye Jinyu stood in the courtyard and waited, watching the woman leaning against the door frame was really uncomfortable,
"Eldest sister, go back to the house and rest. I think you're having a hard time. ”
"Oh, lovesick girl, nothing, it's an old problem, and it won't get better for a while."
Duo'er came out, holding the flint in her little hand,
The sick woman instructed, "Duo'er, you follow Sister Si over and tell Sister Si how to use it." ”
"Well, okay, mother, then you wait for me, and I'll be back in a while."
Duo'er jumped with Ye Jinyu to Ye Jinyu's house in the backyard,
The little one may often help his mother with her work, and her little hands are very dexterous, and it is very easy to light the dry wood in the stove with flint.
Then, he helped Ye Jinyu blow the stove up and burn.
Ye Jinyu saw that this little girl, who was only five or six years old, was working so neatly, and asked, "Duo'er, do you often work at home?" ”
Duo'er wiped a handful of sweat on her little face, but she drew a small black path on her face, "Well, Sister Si, my mother is often sick, so I will help my mother work,"
This is the saying that the children of poor families should be in charge of the house early, but it is really pitiful to be so old.
"Duo'er, are you cooking dinner at home today?"
Duo'er's little face was gloomy, "Sister Si, we haven't cooked yet, there is almost no rice at home, and my mother said that she can't get up these days, so she needs to save some food." ”
Mom can't get out of bed, isn't there still a dad? Let Dad make some food, and make some food indiscriminately.
"Duo'er, where's your father?"
As soon as the little guy heard Ye Jinyu's question, his little face immediately turned red,
"My dad has been gone for a long time, my mother said, my dad said he wanted to go out and explore the rivers and lakes, and then he left, it's been a few years, I don't remember what my dad looks like."
After Duo'er finished speaking, tears reached her eyes.
Secretly wiped it with his little hand, "I can't cry, let my mother see it, my mother will definitely be even sadder." ”
What an irresponsible man! How can such a man have in any era, since he has a bohemian heart, don't marry a wife and have children, this left orphans and widows, this day can be imagined, this woman, must be tired and sick, the days in this countryside are so hard, a woman's family, while planting crops to make money to support the family, while also taking care of weak children, it is really enough for her.
The child is so young, he is forced to look like this, it is simply unbearable, if this is put in modern times, you must call this man, and then, scold him home, let him take his responsibility.
Ye Jinyu hugged Duo'er's shoulder, "Duo'er, don't be sad, I heard Sister Si say that I will have dinner at Sister Si's house tonight, and Sister Si didn't prepare anything else delicious, only some rice porridge, but Duo'er can eat as much as she wants." ”
In the end, it is a child, as soon as Duo'er heard that there was something to eat again, not to mention how happy she was, at noon today, she only ate some cool coarse grains, and she was not full.
It's really nice to be able to eat at night.
When the rice porridge was cooked, Ye Jinyu wanted to get up and find two bowls of porridge, but before she could move the place, Duo'er had already stood up, ran to the small cabinet in the kitchen, stood on tiptoe, and laboriously took down the two empty bowls.
Ye Jinyu took the bowl and rinsed it with clean water, and said in surprise: "Duo'er, do you often come to this house?" ”
Duo'er smiled embarrassedly, "Well, Uncle Long-haired often asks me to come over to eat, but none of the things that Uncle Long-haired makes are very delicious." ”
Duo'er showed two rows of white baby teeth, which looked really cute.
It seems that the original owner of this house is also a kind man, and he knows how to help their mother and daughter, but this situation is really not something that an outsider can help for a long time, and it is really necessary to find this Duo'er's father back, which is the root cause.
Ye Jinyu filled Xiao Duo'er with a bowl of porridge and brought her a small spoon.
Duo'er hurriedly took it, and while blowing, she ate it anxiously, and after a while, a bowl of rice porridge was eaten clean by this child.
Ye Jinyu hurriedly served her another bowl, "Duo'er, eat slowly, don't worry, don't burn it." ”
Duo'er held the porridge bowl in her little hand, raised her big clean eyes, and glanced at Ye Jinyu, "Sister Si, I don't want to eat it, I want to serve this bowl of porridge to my mother, okay?" ”
The kid was looking at Ye Jinyu with a begging look, what a sensible child, Santwo
Ye Jinyu suddenly felt that his eyes were sour,
In his previous life, he had the love of his parents and family, whether it was childhood, childhood, adolescence or youth, he had never suffered anything, let alone learned what it was to not be able to eat.
Before going to the palace, although he was a fatherless and motherless orphan, he was also taken care of by his master, and although the food he ate was ordinary, he was not unable to eat.
This kid is really sad to watch,
"Duo'er, you eat first, you see, Sister Si made a lot of rice tonight, enough for Duo'er, Duo'er's mother, and Sister Si to eat."
"Wait a while, Duo'er will finish eating, and then fill all these in the pot for her mother to take back, so that her mother can eat."
Duo'er smiled again, very happy.
When Duo'er finished eating, Ye Jinyu also took a bite hastily, and followed Duo'er to Duo'er's house again.
Xiao Huang greeted him, and saw that Ye Jinyu didn't scream, and wagged his tail vigorously, Duo'er happily held the small porridge pot in her hand, and shouted as soon as she entered the yard: "Mother, mother, Sister Si made porridge for you, we have eaten, these are for you to eat." ”
A weak answer came out of the room, "Duo'er, don't trouble Sister Si, don't trouble others." ”
Ye Jinyu followed Duo'er and came to Duo'er's house.
This house can be described as a house with four walls, except for a bed, and a cabinet, there is almost nothing left.
There are also two small stools on the floor of the room.
Duo'er put the bowl on a small stool, and brought another small stool to Ye Jinyu, "Sister Si, sit down." ”
Then, he picked up the little porridge pot, sat down on the edge of her mother's bed, picked up the spoon, began to serve the porridge, and handed it to her mother's mouth.
"Mother, you eat, the porridge made by Sister Si is delicious. Eat quickly. ”
The yellow-faced woman was embarrassed and said, "Lovesick girl, why are you so troublesome, you just came to the village today, and you came to deliver food to our mother, it's really too much to say." ”
Ye Jinyu looked at this woman, although she was a poor peasant woman, she had the quality of knowing books and etiquette, "Eldest sister, don't say that, if it weren't for your fire today, I wouldn't have been able to eat dinner, thanks to you for helping me." ”
"You're still sick, and it's not convenient to work, otherwise, I'll have to cook myself, bring out an extra portion of your mother, it's not so troublesome, you just eat."
Duo'er turned around, looked at Ye Jinyu and smiled happily, and then turned around and said to her mother, "Mother, I also ate a lot of porridge at Sister Si's house today, Sister Si is very good, just as good as that long-haired uncle." ”
The woman touched Duo'er's head lovingly, "We Duo'er are lucky, we can always meet kind people. ”
Duo'er clumsily fed all the porridge in the porridge bowl to her mother to eat, she seemed to have done something earth-shattering, and she was very happy.
"Mother, you have eaten enough today, and when you wake up tomorrow morning, your illness will be cured, and you can take Duo'er to dig wild vegetables in the field again as before."
Ye Jinyu also kept thinking about asking what kind of illness this woman was.
"Eldest sister, your health is so bad, what kind of disease are you?"
The woman ate something, and her spirit improved a lot, "I shouldn't be a real disease, it's just a matter of working hard every day, just like those learned people say, it's a disease from hard work, it's not a serious illness, the situation in my family, hey!" It's hard to put into words. Our mother's life is not very rich, so I didn't ask Lang Zhong to see it,"
"Raising it like this, it is estimated that it should be good after a while. I've been sick before, but I haven't gotten better for as long as this time. ”?
"With my illness, it's hard for this child, and eating a hot meal has become something she looks forward to."
The woman said, touching Duo'er's pigtails, "Today, thanks to the lovesick girl, we have a hot meal, thank you so much." ”
She said as she nodded politely towards Ye Jinyu.
Ye Jinyu smiled, "Eldest sister, you don't have to be polite, I will definitely have a lot of things to trouble you in the future, and I will also make trouble with you, in the future, we will be neighbors, eldest sister, it is appropriate to help each other." ”
In order to alleviate some of the guilt in this woman's heart, Ye Jinyu deliberately said as if he really had a lot of things to trouble her.
The woman's sick body moved, "Lovesick girl, if there is anything we can help, you can just open your mouth." ”
Ye Jinyu really has something to ask, "Eldest sister, after my relative left, there was nothing left at home, and now he has nothing but a little rice, I have to go to the market to buy some things for life, such as flints, lamp oil, and cooking oil, where can I buy it?" ”
The eldest sister couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to lean on the pillow, Ye Jinyu quickly got up, helped her stand up the pillow, and helped her to lean on.
"Lovesick girl, tomorrow you push the small cart in my yard, and let Duo'er take you to the nearest town, where there are the things you want, the things you need in life, there are all there, like the flowers and hairpins on the girl's head, they are all sold there."
"You two go in the morning and come back at noon. There are a lot of people in the town, so just don't get lost. ”
Oh my God, I wasn't born with the right to remember the road, could I get lost?
