Time passed minute by minute, and bursts of aroma wafted from the stove next to him, which made Song Xiaoqiao's stomach begin to wail, and the voice was bleak and far-reaching, as if it came from some bottomless cave, which made his younger brother Song Haoran laugh happily next to him.

"Sister, didn't you still say that you weren't hungry this morning, why did you reveal your true form so quickly."

This morning, my mother asked my sister to drink soup, and my sister looked disgusted, but now it is good, her stomach sounds like a drum, if the door is open, it is estimated that the next yard can be heard.

"Hey, it seems that your kid is really much better, and you know that you made fun of your sister, right?"

To tell the truth, the bark and roots are boiled in soup, let alone drinking, even she has a feeling of wanting to gag just by smelling it, of course, her idea is not discriminating against her mother and younger brother, she also knows how difficult it is for this family to survive until now, relying on those bark and roots, but she really feels that kind of thing is really unpalatable.

"Mother, mother, my sister bullied me."

Song Haoran was twisted by Song Xiaoqiao's ears, although it was very light and light, but Song Haoran couldn't help but be naughty, since his father died, their family has not had such a smile for a long time, how could he miss this opportunity today.

"Okay, you two are not too young, and you are still so naughty, Xiao Qiao quickly clean up and get ready to eat."

Zhang looked at their sister and brother fighting, and couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth.

Although there is no big fish and meat, not even oil, water and condiments, the soup at the moment is so delicious that Song Xiaoqiao can't wait to eat all the soup and vegetables in the bowl in one bite.

"Little Joe, slow down, there's still something in the pot."

Zhang looked at the gobbling up of his children, tears welled up in his eyes, and he thought to himself: It is because she is a mother who is not interested, so that her children will also suffer.

"Mother, you can eat too."

Song Xiaoqiao's eyes were sharp, and he saw the changes on his mother's face at a glance, so he hurriedly picked up his mother's bowl and handed it to his mother's hand, for fear that his mother would leave everything that could be eaten and used to their sisters and brothers like before.

"Okay, my mother will eat too."

Xiao Qiao found enough wild vegetables today, enough for their family to eat two meals, but after these two meals, what should they do?

There is also paper that can't hold the fire, today's mother-in-law Wang didn't find it, but maybe tomorrow, the day after tomorrow they won't find it, once they find it, it is estimated that this wild vegetable will be less and less.

"Mother, don't think so much, I'm grown up now, and I won't let you and my brother go hungry."

With his memory, Song Xiaoqiao can clearly understand Zhang's thoughts at the moment, and even more understand Wang's personality.

But this time she will not be as reckless as she was this morning, and she will put herself, her mother and her brother in a place of misery.

"Okay, well, our little Joe has grown up, and he knows that he feels sorry for his mother and brother, so let's eat it."

Zhang picked up the broken bowl with relief, drank the soup in it little by little, and was full of emotion in his heart: Xiao Qiao's changes in the past two days can be described as cloudy and rainy, but this is a good thing.

…………

In the early morning, the red sun slowly emerged from the top of the mountain, and after a while, the morning glow sprinkled all over the earth, and this quiet mountain village gradually woke up from last night's dream, Song Xiaoqiao rubbed his sleepy eyes, and slowly sat up straight.

This house was not big, and it rained heavily last night, and the wooden plank she slept on with her mother was leaking, so her mother proposed to let her sleep with her younger brother Song Haoran, so after she woke up, she tiptoed off the bed board, for fear of waking up this troubled brother.

It's just that what surprised her a little was her mother, who was hunched over and sitting in the doorway, as if she was sorting out something.

"Mother, you haven't slept all night?"

Song Xiaoqiao leaned over with curiosity, and when she walked in, she found that her mother was actually doing sewing work, looking at her haggard appearance, she must have been working all night.

"Mother is fine, your brother has been sick these days, Mother has fallen a lot, tomorrow is the deadline for delivery, Mother has to rush them out."

She has a time limit for sewing for others, and every time the boss will come to the door to recycle, if this time she doesn't do this well, I'm afraid the boss won't hand over the sewing work to her in the future.

This work cannot be lost.

"Mother, why don't I help you."

Song Xiaoqiao asked her mother to put down the sewing in her hand and go to rest first, but she swallowed the words back to her mouth, because she understood her mother, even if she was tired and sick, she would not put down the sewing in her hand, because she had taught them since she was a child that they should be true to their word, so after thinking about it, Song Xiaoqiao felt that it was better to help her mother than to say that it was useless.

"Huh...... Xiao Qiao, you are already very content with this heart for your mother, it is still early now, you go to rest for a while, your mother can be alone. ”

Although Xiao Qiao is not a rich lady now, she has never done such a sewing job, so she can't sew it at all.

"Mother, just let me try it, I promise to be careful not to tear these clothes."

She understood her mother's worries, after all, these were the clothes of medium-sized families, and if they were damaged, people like them could not afford to pay for them, but she had no parents since she was a child, and she grew up with her grandparents, and she had done such work before, although she did not have her mother's exquisite craftsmanship, but it was not at all.

She believed she could.

Hearing his daughter say this, Zhang was stunned for a moment, and only after half a sound did he speak: "Okay, then you can try." ”

Since Xiao Qiao has spoken, let her try, anyway, she will marry in the future, and when the time comes, if her in-laws can't even do the most basic sewing, won't they give people a handle and let people bully.

"Little Joe, you see, first this, then this, and finally this."

Zhang was still a little uneasy, so he deliberately demonstrated for Song Xiaoqiao several times, and Song Xiaoqiao lived up to expectations, and quickly mastered his mother's skills, but people are not as good as heaven, I don't know if it's because she hasn't done such needlework for too long, or because she was worried that she would damage these clothes, and accidentally pierced the skin on her fingers with the tip of the needle.

Bright red blood came out in an instant, and Song Xiaoqiao hurriedly put his finger in his mouth, causing the mother on the side to slightly hook the corners of his mouth.

"Forget it, you better go do something else, this work will be slowly taught to you by my mother in the future."

Although she smiled at the corner of her mouth, she still felt a little sorry for this daughter's fingers, and just after she finished speaking, she was about to forcibly send Xiao Qiao away, and her mother-in-law Wang came to the door again.

"Yo, it's really a mother's filial piety."

The Wang family will always look like that looking at their nostrils, she is still afraid of her father's time in the world, and now that her father is gone, she has become even worse.
