93, the farmer's mother raised eight sons 17
"Oh oh oh ~ "
Before dawn, the sound of a rooster crowing.
At the same time, there was a sound from every house, as if someone had risen to work for a new day.
Ye Bing also opened her eyes at this time, she didn't sleep well all night, the child had to feed in the middle of the night, and this kang was too hard, just sleeping for such a night, her waist was no longer her waist.
There was also a noise in the next room at this time, and it was supposed that a few children were up.
She didn't want to sleep, she just turned over, and put on the patched, old clothes that couldn't be seen in the original color.
When she opened the door and walked out, she found several children standing in her doorway.
"You ......"
Obviously, Ye Bing didn't know what they were going to do!
"Mother, can you still eat steamed buns today?"
Chongwu, a foodie, asked cautiously.
They didn't sleep all night, just to come in the morning and eat the big and fragrant buns.
Belch!
Ye Bing was surprised, he had eaten steamed buns for a day, and these children hadn't gotten tired of eating them!
If it were today's children, they would have been clamoring to eat other foods!
But the times are different and cannot be compared.
Anyway, there are a lot of buns, and I'm not afraid of them eating them.
Ye Bing deliberately returned to the back room, and took it out after filling it with buns, the old rule, one by one, can't be coaxed, eat quietly at home, and can't say it.
Except for the 2-year-old Chongqi who only knows how to eat, the other children have a tacit understanding to remember this rule.
"Mother, are we going to the ground?"
When the child's father is there, he goes to the ground, and when he is busy, he will also go to help.
Now the only backbone of the family has been captured, and the children don't know what to do.
Ye Bing just came, and he didn't find a way to make money, and the family's two acres of land still had to be planted, after all, the family's rations were in it.
had no choice but to ask the two eldest sons in the family.
"Heavy one and heavy two, your father was arrested, and the two of you are now the pillars of the family, so please leave the two acres of land in the family to you."
The children of the poor are in charge of the house early, not because the children are sensible early, but because life is forced out.
"Mother, don't worry, we will definitely farm well, and when the autumn harvest comes, we will store more grain."
That way, they won't be hungry and won't have to be controlled by outsiders.
Since they are all part of this family, then everyone should contribute to this family, so Ye Bing arranged it casually.
"Heavy three, there is not much firewood at home, you go up the mountain to pick up more firewood and come back."
"Okay mother."
"Heavy four, the water tank at home is out of water, you remember to pick some water and come back."
"No problem, leave it to me!"
"Chongwu, my mother is going out in a while, you are watching the heavy six and seven and eight at home, and no outsiders are allowed to come in, can you?"
"Mother, I can do it!"
Of these eight sons, none of them were naughty and obedient.
The family's food is limited, and the child's father has not left a penny.
If you want your family to eat enough, in addition to relying on the autumn harvest of those two acres of fields, you have to find another way out.
After all, the eight sons, except for the youngest, all of them work in the fields, carrying water and collecting firewood, which is physically exhausting, and it must be more than the children who only go to school in modern times.
So she wanted to go around the mountains and see if she could find something to eat.
Since ancient times, in addition to animals, there are also herbs, wild vegetables and the like, as long as she is lucky to find one, and then get it in that 200 square meters of personal space to breed or plant, there will be no shortage of food in the future.
With this in mind, she carried the basket on her back and the sickle, and headed for the nearby mountains.
