Chapter 1257: Mother, Gazi is back
Zhao Erga knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the blind old lady a few times, and cried loudly: "Mother...... Gazi is back......"
When the blind old lady heard her son's voice, she grabbed it with both hands, and it took a long time to touch her son's head, hold it in her arms, and cry: "Is it Gazi......"
"Mother...... Gazi is not filial......"
It was only then that the blind old lady was sure that the person in her arms was indeed her eldest son. She kept patting her son's head with both hands, crying and scolding: "You unfilial thing, don't you want a mother...... Don't you want a wife and children...... I'll kill you unfilial thing...... Woohoo......"
Zhao Erga hugged the old lady's shriveled body and let her whip it, until the blind old lady was tired, and the mother hugged her head and cried. Zhao Erga's two children also ran over to hug their father and grandmother and cry together.
At this time, there was a cry in the shack, and the women of Zhao Erga's family were also wiping their tears vigorously, and the second brother was standing at the door with his head tilted to prevent the tears from flowing, but he couldn't control it at all.
The family had cried enough, Zhao Erga got up from the ground, carried the bamboo basket and rice bag at the door to the blind old lady, poured out the contents of the bamboo basket, and then said excitedly to the old lady: "Mother...... You touch it...... This is the rice ...... It's bacon......"
When he said this, he turned to the woman next to him and said, "Hurry up and make a fire...... Today we had enough white rice and made bacon and salted fish......"
The woman looked at the pile of things on the ground in amazement, and was stunned for a long time before wiping her eyes, then nodded excitedly, turned around and ran outside the house.
The two children were also stunned, their eyes staring at the bacon on the ground, their faces full of disbelief. It had been a long time since they had fled from their hometown, and they had not smelled meat.
The blind old lady was full of worry, she fumbled around with both hands, grabbed her son's hand, and said sharply: "Child...... Where did this thing come from...... We can't break the law......"
"Mother...... This is all sent by the owner, and the owner said that as long as we work hard in the future, we will be given a house when we become regular. You have worked hard to pull our brothers alone, and you have never enjoyed the blessings, and Gazi will definitely let you live a good life in the future. ”
The blind old lady was still not at ease, and asked anxiously: "Does your boss let you follow them to fight, that's to fight hard, if you have three longs and two shorts, how can I live......
After she finished speaking, she cried again, after the man in the family died of illness, she raised the two children alone, I don't know how much hardship she suffered, and it was easy for the two sons to grow up, but she also had to work hard day and night, and a pair of eyes were blind.
Later, when I encountered a disaster year, it was easy to escape from the famine and came to Linqing Prefecture to have a place to stay, although the days were hard, but the two sons were capable, and the family could still eat.
Who would have thought that there would be a thief army in Linqingzhou, and the two sons would have no livelihood, and the family would not be able to open the pot. also forced the boss to join the thief army, although it can be exchanged for food and clothing for the time being, but if the army of the court comes to suppress it in the future, how can it be good.
Zhao Erga saw that the blind old lady was crying more and more sad, and persuaded with a wry smile: "Mother...... The owner said that now they have occupied half of the Ming Dynasty, and even the capital is surrounded by the owner's army, and the emperor Lao'er is about to be caught. ”
The blind old lady didn't believe it at all when she heard this, and wondered, "Don't talk nonsense...... The emperor is the Son of Heaven......"
"Mother...... The thousands of officers and soldiers in Linqingzhou were taken down by the owner in less than a day, and the owner is powerful, so you can rest assured. ”
Hearing her son say this, although the blind old lady was still skeptical, she stopped crying, but she was still a little restless.
At this time, a long-lost rice fragrance permeated from outside the door, and the blind old lady's mood finally stabilized. The two bear children next to him stopped making trouble, obediently lying in their grandmother's arms, looking out of the house with expectant eyes.
A burst of pot explosions sounded, and the intoxicating smell of meat spread to the house, and the two Zhao Erga brothers, the blind old lady and the two bear children all stayed there quietly, waiting for the arrival of the meal in an almost pilgrimage mood.
"I'll help my sister-in-law ......" Zhao Erga's brother couldn't stand it anymore, shouted excitedly, turned around and ran out of the shack.
"I'll help my mother serve ...... rice"
"Uh...... Then I'll serve the food to my mother......"
The two bear children also jumped up and went out behind the second uncle's ass as if they were happy.
Today, except for the blind old lady, Zhao Erga's family is still worried, and everyone else is like the New Year. It's sad to say, just one meal makes them so excited.
After a long day's work, the family finally got the meal ready, and they sat cross-legged on the floor, each holding a tattered porcelain bowl full of white rice.
On a tattered wooden board between them lay two wooden basins, one containing bacon fried with live wild vegetables, and the other containing a few steamed salted fish.
Zhao Erga's woman is used to living a hard life, where is she willing to be extravagant, a long strip of bacon only cut a small piece, and a large bundle of salted fish is even pulled out of a few.
The vegetables in the two wooden pots are only as small as the bottom of the pots, but even in the years when there was no disaster in my hometown, even if it was a festival, I had never eaten such a "hearty" meal.
The blind old lady took a deep breath, and then said excitedly: "Eat...... Let's eat...... What are you waiting for......"
The two bear children, who had long been unable to bear it, listened to their grandmother's words, and reached out to grab the pot of bacon. The two of them had been staring at it for a long time, and the saliva in their mouths was almost hanging to the ground.
With a "snap", Zhao Erga's woman reached out and slapped the two bear children, and scolded angrily: "There are no rules...... Grandma hasn't eaten yet, what are you grabbing......?"
The blind old lady stopped doing it when she heard this, and said to her daughter-in-law: "How can you talk about children like this, how old are they, come...... Big girl, second egg...... Grandma will give you meat ......."
After she finished speaking, she picked up the chopsticks with trembling hands, and groped for a long time before picking up a piece of meat with the help of her daughter-in-law and putting it in the bowls of the two children.
"Grandma...... We don't eat...... You eat first......"
The children of poor families are still sensible in the end, and they have to give their grandmother food first for everything. Zhao Erga saw them let them go around, and laughed: "Mother...... Just a few pieces of meat, don't let it go, let's make an exception today, let's divide the meat......"
After he finished speaking, he ignored the blind old lady's number and his daughter-in-law's concession, and insisted on giving them the meat equally. As soon as his brother saw that there was no meat in his eldest brother's bowl, he wanted to give Zhao Erga a few pieces of meat in his bowl.
"You just eat your meat, I've been training with the owner for the past few days, and I can eat meat every day......"
Several people in the room were stunned when they heard his words. Zhao Erga saw that they didn't believe it, and began to show off. Especially when it comes to three full meals a day, the blind old lady and daughter-in-law look at him in disbelief when they hear it, what kind of owner is this, it's too loser.
