Chapter 18: The Need to Make Money
Taking a bath with cold water can also strengthen the body, but the process is enough to choke.
On a May day, the water in the tank was cold enough, and after taking a shower with a shivering rope, Mu Li went to the quilt.
I don't know how many years the quilt has been used with a faint musty smell, and there are a lot of patches, which are very old.
"Sister."
Mu Xiaozhi came over, her small body was next to her, and her big innocent eyes were full of dependence.
Mu Li hugged him, Mu Xiaozhi was too thin, he only ate sparse white porridge all year round, and he was still not full, which made Mu Xiaozhi, who was in urgent need of nutrients, as thin as skin and bones.
Although Mu Li did not marry and had children in her previous life, she has also seen a lot of children, Mu Xiaozhi is five years old, but in her previous life, three-year-old children looked older than him.
For this young brother, Mu Li feels more sorry for him than anyone else, and she feels sorry for him the most.
"Xiao Zhi, are you hungry, sister has some wild strawberries here, sister will give it to you to eat."
Mu Li got up and went to the bed to get a piece of wrapped clothes, took the opportunity to grab a handful of wild strawberries from the space and hid them in the clothes and wrapped them, and then took them to Mu Xiaozhi, opened the clothes mysteriously, and the red strawberries were presented in front of Mu Xiaozhi.
In the past, the wild mushrooms were found in the mountains when the mushrooms were wild in the rainy season, and if you were lucky, you could find more than ten catties, and you could also find several catties of wild vegetables, so when there were many wild mushrooms, cooking mushroom porridge could of course put a lot of mushrooms.
And tonight's wild mushrooms are too few, less than a few catties, plus one catty has been used before, and there are more than two catties left, of course, it is impossible to cook more wild mushrooms as usual.
Therefore, Mu Xiaozhi didn't eat enough, and he was hungry just after an hour of dinner, but he didn't dare to tell Sun.
"Wow, there are so many lantern nuts."
Mu Xiaozhi was very happy, he thought that he had eaten it all in the evening, but he didn't expect that there would be a red strawberry, but he didn't eat it himself, but brought it to Mu Li's mouth and motioned her to eat it first.
Sure enough, it didn't hurt this little guy in vain.
"I'm not hungry, just eat it yourself." Mu Li smiled, she likes strawberries, but she doesn't have a cold with this sour wild strawberry.
Mu Xiaozhi saw that she really didn't want to eat it, so she ate it herself.
Rural children, especially poor families like the Mu family, basically have no snacks for children, so Mu Xiaozhi is very happy to eat this sour and sweet wild strawberry.
Soon, a handful of wild strawberries were eaten.
"Sleep, Sister will make you something to eat tomorrow morning." Mu Li asked him to lie down obediently, and Mu Xiaozhi was also very well-behaved, which made her feel distressed.
There are three rooms in the Mu family, the main room Mu Dad and Sun's, two partial rooms, and the left side room is the eldest brother Mu He and Mu Feng, although Mu Li is a girl, but because she is still young now, Mu Xiaozhi is only five years old, so the two sleep together.
After Mu Xiaozhi fell asleep, she grabbed another strawberry from the space and sent it to Mu He and Mu Feng next door, so that each of them could eat five pieces, which was also regarded as a vitamin supplement.
It's still very early, less than nine o'clock, but there is no entertainment in ancient times, and rural people also rest according to the sunrise and sunset, and after dinner, after washing, it is time to go to bed.
This work and rest time is good, but Mu Li, who is used to the life of a night owl, can't sleep, looking at Mu Xiaozhi, who is well-behaved and sleeping sweetly in his arms, Mu Li thinks that he can't go on like this.
