Chapter 12: Xiao Ha's troubles
Lan Feiyan sandwiched a lot of mutton and eggs into their rice bowls for her mother and younger brother, she pointed to the tomatoes and introduced, "Mother, this red one is called tomatoes, and it is the most nutritious to scramble with eggs, you can taste it and see if it tastes good." ”
Chen Yueyue was already hungry, so she didn't care so much, picked up the chopsticks and ate them.
Lan Feiwu sandwiched an egg and put it in his mouth, the egg was fresh and sweet, "Sister, why is this egg so delicious." ”
Chen Qianqian does not raise chickens at home, firstly, she is reluctant to spend money to buy chickens, and secondly, she has no food to feed, not to mention that she has no long-term plan, she only knows that she can earn copper plates by doing coolies, and she can save one, and never thinks that the chicks can grow up to lay eggs, and the eggs can hatch chicks......
Looking at such good food, Chen Qianqian was reluctant to eat it, she sandwiched the eggs and mutton in the bowl into Lan Feiyan and Lan Feiwu's bowls.
"You sisters and brothers eat more, and your mother can eat more." After speaking, he picked a large mouthful of rice and put it in his mouth, chewed it slowly, for fear that if he swallowed it in one bite, he wouldn't even taste anything.
Seeing this, Lan Feiwu was about to clip it back to her, but Chen Qianqian hurriedly blocked the bowl with her hand, "This rice is very fragrant, my mother really doesn't need to eat vegetables, just eat it." ”
For her, this fragrant rice can be eaten in two large bowls without vegetables.
Lan Feiyan took advantage of Chen Qianqian's defenselessness and scooped a large spoonful of mutton and white radish into her bowl, "Mother, you have to eat more, you see that you are thin, our family still depends on you to support it." ”
Chen Yueyue stuffed a large mouthful of mutton into her mouth, she frowned and looked at the way they pushed around, is this interesting?
Obviously, there are so many in the pot, and everyone has a surplus to eat a bowl, so what is there to be reluctant to.
This ancient bowl is straight and flat-bottomed, both deep and large, one can reach the modern two and a half rice bowls, and the glaze on the surface is very rough and not applied to the end, there is no pattern at all, it can be said to be quite ugly.
"Godmother, you can eat, you see there are so many in the pot, if you don't eat, the smoke and fog will not be able to eat with peace of mind."
Chen Qianqian is used to living a hard life, so she is naturally very economical, "How much can be saved for the evening to eat, and it won't be bad." ”
Chen Yueyue ate a piece of tomato and whispered: "Godmother, Yan'er and I don't like to eat leftovers, leftovers are okay, you can make egg fried rice, but there are no eggs in this house!" Why don't I go home later and get two. ”
When Chen Qianqian heard this, she put down her chopsticks and said, "Yueyue, my godmother doesn't allow you to steal." ”
"Godmother, I'm going to my house to get it, not stealing someone else's." Chen Yueyue muttered in her heart, how can her own family be considered stealing, in modern times, she can take anything in her house casually, even the money in the drawer, she is cut first and then played, let alone two small eggs.
Maybe she has developed such a habit since she was a child, so she will be very casual with people who have a very close relationship, such as living in Fei Fei's (now Lan Feiyan) home after graduating from college, and she regards herself as half of the master, and everything she eats and uses is all bought by Fei Fei, but Fei Fei never cares about these little things.
Chen Qianqian said: "Your family can't do it, without the permission of adults, it's stealing, it's okay if we're poor, but we can't tell the truth of being a human being." ”
Chen Yueyue smacked her lips, and was about to distinguish a few words, when Lan Feiyan hurriedly kicked her under the table.
Chen Yueyue had no choice but to take the opportunity to say: "What the godmother said is, I just don't take it." ”
She took a large piece of tomatoes and put them in Chen Qianqian's bowl, and said, "Godmother, you try this dish to see if it's delicious, if it's delicious, we'll plant some." ”
Chen Qianqian saw that she listened to it, put her heart at ease, and began to eat.
Speaking of not having eggs at home, Lan Feiyan knew that his family had no money to buy chickens, but he could buy eggs to hatch chicks! It's just that there is no hen either, she suddenly saw Xiao Ha who had been lying at the door, maybe this guy could help, thinking of this, Lan Feiyan couldn't help laughing.
Lan Feiwu saw that his sister's hand with chopsticks was supporting her chin and didn't eat, she was just looking at the dog at the door and smirking, he stretched out his left palm and shook it in front of her, "Sister, what are you smirking at?" ”
Lan Feiyan came back to his senses, "Ah, it's nothing, I just remembered the funny things that Xiaoha had when he was a child." ”
Chen Yueyue raised her hand, revealing two good-looking dimples, she looked at Lan Feiyan and smiled: "I know, you must remember that when Xiaoha was more than two months old, he was chased by a big rooster in the vegetable market." ”
Lan Feiwu was a little unconvinced, "This is too fake, right?" Will a dog still be afraid of a chicken? I see that the dogs in the village often chase the chickens and bite them. ”
Chen Yueyue covered her mouth, glanced at Xiao Ha at the door, and said in a low voice: "That time was Xiao Ha's embarrassing history, when the big rooster jumped on its back and pecked it several times, and it was pecked and bled out."
I can only blame Xiao Ha for being too greedy, looking like a ball, and can't run, but then when it grew up, he went to the vegetable market and secretly bit the big to death, which can be regarded as revenge. ”
"Ah, it's so vindictive!"
Chen Yueyue replied: "That's right, it's usually not even in my eyes." ”
Speaking of this, Lan Feiwu glanced at Xiao Ha timidly, it seems that he can't offend it in the future, otherwise he may not be able to take revenge on himself.
Lan Feiyan glanced at Chen Yueyue, "Xiao Ha, how can it be as terrifying as you say, Xiao Wu, don't listen to Yueyue's nonsense, she is scaring you, Xiao Ha is very interesting, and it never bites, you can rest assured." ”
Chen Qianqian ate slowly, quietly listening to them, no matter how funny the topic they said, she didn't show a smile on her face, but seemed to have a big stone pressing her in her heart.
In the past, Lan Feiyan had a quiet personality, didn't like to talk much, didn't like to laugh, and even had some inferiority, it can be said that she was sad all day long, but now this, not only is she lively and cheerful, but she is also very confident, and it is difficult enough for her to wear such a poor home.
She even felt that God was still not thin for her, after all, not everyone who died could be reborn, although the core was changed.
Chen Qianqian ate the last grain of rice in the bowl, sighed lightly in her heart, and made up her mind to do more work and earn more money in the future, so that the two children could have a better life.
"Mother is going to help Aunt Li's family plant rice now, she may come back very late, Yan'er, I'll clean up the dishes and chopsticks after eating, Wu'er, you remember to pick up some cow dung for your uncle's family to fertilize the field."
Thinking that she still owed her eldest brother's money, Chen Qianqian was a little panicked, in case two days later, Zhang Qiaoqiao really brought someone to grab cigarettes and buy them, so she asked Lan Feiwu to go to her uncle's house, hoping that the eldest brother could let her repay the money slowly for the sake of her nephew.
In ancient times, many poor families gave birth to too many daughters, and those who could not afford them would be sold to sell them to large families as maids, or to be sold to children as daughters-in-law, or even to brothels...... Either way, it's not going to be good.
Lan Feiwu answered and said, "Mother, I know." ”
