Sister Li took the book with mixed feelings.

It's all this time, and the new Zhang Niang is still thinking about Xiao Jiang.

Their own family members didn't think about this at all, they were so hungry every day, they lay in bed in a daze every day, ate this meal, and looked forward to the next meal.

Where does it matter if Xiaojiang is studying or not.

"New Chapter Niang ......"

Jiang Ru waved his hand, "I'll go first, and we're still waiting for us at home." ”

Back home, Jiang Ru looked at the porridge on the table and raised her eyebrows.

"Xiaomei, have you already drunk?"

"Well, I already drank it when I just made it." Duan Xiaomei patted the child's back and coaxed in a low voice.

At this time, Niu Xinzhang came in, pulled off the bench and sat down opposite Jiang Ru, "Mother, are you back?" It's finally time to eat. ”

Jiang Ru looked sideways, glanced at the bowl in front of him, and then looked at the bowl in front of Niu Xinzhang.

The porridge is very thick, although it is not as good as when she was cooking before, but it is obviously not like Xiaomei's thrifty pie.

Seeing that Xiaomei didn't dare to look at her, she was sure that the child hadn't eaten much.

Maybe just drink a little water.

"Xiaomei, do you want to eat alone in the future, or wait for us to eat together. We are a family, how can we eat at two tables? Jiang Ru frowned.

Niu Xinzhang stirred the gruel, and the rice in it was getting less and less.

He put down his chopsticks, picked up the bowl and took a sip, "Mother is right, you should eat with us, you are alone, I don't know how much you have eaten." ”

Duan Xiaomei hurriedly lowered her head and looked at the child, "I know, mother." ”

Jiang Ru saw Niu Xinzhang's disgusted eyes, and his heart was furious.

She opened her mouth and said, "Xiaomei, let's cook the porridge thinner in the future, we only have so much food, and we have to last for a long time." ”

Duan Xiaomei nodded, the broken hair on her forehead slid down, and she unconsciously pulled it behind her ears.

"Got it, mother."

She was a little distressed, if she ate with her mother, she wouldn't be able to eat less.

If you eat less, your mother will definitely ask.

Niu Xinzhang heard that it would be boiled thinner, and his face suddenly turned dark, and he muttered in his heart.

This is already like water, why do you need to boil it thinner? Do you want people to live?

"Also, Xinzhang and I will eat less, you have to take care of the children every day, and you have to feed the chickens and dogs, so you can eat more." Jiang Rudao.

Niu Xinzhang heard this, and immediately stood up, and the bench clanged.

Jiang Ru and Duan Xiaomei both looked at him, their eyes showing a look of something wrong.

Niu Xinzhang saw Jiang Ru's worried gaze, and his heart suddenly cooled.

He tugged at the corners of his mouth, "It's nothing, I'm just done eating, and I'm ready to go on patrol." ”

Jiang Ru nodded, "Go quickly, I'll pick up your shift in the evening." ”

Niu Xinzhang stiffened his limbs and walked out.

As the courtyard door closed, he relaxed.

With a sad face, he went to the place where the patrol had changed.

"Brother Xinzhang, what's wrong with you? Sad? ”

"It should be that his mother donated a lot of food at noon, and he is not happy, right?"

"How is that possible? Xinzhang Niang said that this matter was brought up by Xinzhang's brothers. ”

"Who knows? Maybe it's to save face for him, so Xin Zhangniang said this. ”

Niu Xinzhang listened to the words of several members of the patrol team, and pulled the corners of his mouth and said, "The grain is indeed donated by my mother." It's just that there is not much food left in my family, and my mother said that I can only drink gruel. ”

"Huh? The thick porridge you drank before? Niu Zhang came over and heard this, and immediately exclaimed.

Suddenly, the eyes of the others around him were wrong.

Seeing this, Niu Xinzhang sighed in his heart, and a bitter smile rose at the corner of his mouth, "No, it's just that my mother didn't pick a lot of wild vegetables?" I put a lot of wild vegetables in the porridge before, so I can eat three points full. But the family donated food, and my mother said that wild vegetables had to be saved, and now there is only a little water left. ”

"Hey! Brother Xinzhang, you are content. Some people can't even drink water. ”

But he said that Jiang Ru was here.

Looking at the back of Niu Xinzhang leaving, Jiang Ru's face was full of bitterness, "It's all because I don't have the ability, let you and Xinzhang suffer together, if the child and his father are still there, we don't have to work so hard." Xinzhang must have been unhappy in his heart, and he didn't tell me much when he just left. ”

Duan Xiaomei hurriedly put the child down, patted her on the back and comforted: "Mother, don't be sad, if your father-in-law knows underground, he will definitely be sad." And the husband definitely didn't mean it, you have to believe that the husband must be filial to you! ”

said this, but she hesitated a little in her heart, and her eyes couldn't help but wander.

Although it is said that she has been pregnant for three years, slowly, her IQ will return.

As time passed, Duan Xiaomei realized that her husband was good to her because she had a mother.

But even if his mother is in town, his nature is not so good.

Jiang Ru sighed, "This grain is getting less and less, and I can't help it." ”

"Mother, it's okay if I eat less. You and Xinzhang are the hardest workers, and you have to patrol every day. Especially if you have to patrol at night. ”

"How's that going to work? Both me and Xinzhang can eat less, but you can't! You have less food and poor health, who will take care of my good grandchildren?! Jiang Ru reacted violently.

"Mother, I'm at home, and I don't do anything else, the two children are hurting, very well-behaved, and it's not troublesome. I don't need ......."

Jiang Ru stood up abruptly and interrupted her, "The child's body is already weak, and the weather is so hot, the child will get sick if he doesn't pay attention." ”

Suddenly, she realized that she had said something unlucky, and she snorted twice and muttered twice, "Bodhisattva is not strange, Bodhisattva is not strange." ”

Then, she continued: "Anyway, your most important task is to take care of yourself and take care of your two good grandchildren!" Don't say anything else! ”

Duan Xiaomei had mixed feelings in her heart.

She knew that her mother said this for her good, and meeting such a mother-in-law was really a blessing she had cultivated in her previous life.

"Okay, let's not talk about it, I'll wash the dishes and go rest for a while." Jiang Ru put the bowls away and overlapped them.

"Mother, I'll wash it, you go and rest." Duan Xiaomei hurriedly snatched the bowl and rushed to work.

Jiang Ru took off the child on her back, "Then you give me the child." Then he picked up the child and went back to his room.

Seeing that the two little ones who were originally chubby had become thin now, Jiang Ru didn't feel good in her heart.

The two children were drowsy, and when they were hugged in by Jiang Ru, they woke up in an instant and happily stretched out their hands to her.

The two children are not just inherited from anyone, they are very smart, knowing that Jiang Ru will have delicious food when they come in, and they shouted happily: "Milk!" ”

"Two little gluttons." Jiang Ru added a little sugar to the rice cereal he grinded as usual, and secretly fed it to the two little guys.

They were growing up, and they never thought of such a famine year.

If Jiang Ru hadn't prepared rice noodles a long time ago, these two children would have lost weight long ago with just that little gruel and steamed eggs.
