Chapter 115: Isolation
was assigned a job by Yun Shang, and the uncomfortableness on Yun Erchuan's body disappeared immediately, and he didn't shout to go back early.
In the cold eyes of Old Man Yun, Yun Erchuan was shy, and he squeezed over to listen to him and Gu Shinian.
Yun Shuilian went back to Lao Yun's house to take a few nests, took half a cabbage, and brought the new cotton shoes that the old lady made for Yun Sheng by the way.
Yunshang sat on the kang head, wearing new cotton shoes that fit well, holding a piece of bread in his hand to tease the plug, listening to him call his sister inarticulately, and laughing happily.
Mrs. Yun and Yun Shuilian were busy in front of the stove, preparing dinner for the family.
Yun Erchuan raised his head, looked at the smiling faces of the old couple of the Yun family, and then looked at the bolt sitting on the kang head, smiling and eating with Yun Sheng You and I ate one bite at a time, and felt that without Li Hongmei, the atmosphere at home was much better than usual.
Li Hongmei, who was disgusted and ruined the atmosphere, was sitting alone at the kang table at this moment, sulking at a basket of black nests and a bowl of pickles cut into thick slices.
She worked hard to make dinner for a large family, but a group of people didn't even say hello and didn't come back to eat.
It doesn't matter if the two old ones and Yun Shuilian don't come back, but even Yun Erchuan won't come back, and he won't even send her back with a bolt.
There are six people in this family, and she is the only one left to eat at this cold and deserted dining table.
Li Hongmei thumped her chest, thinking that when Yun Shuilian came back to get the rations just now, she obviously saw her cooking on the fire, but she didn't even look at her, and directly treated her as air and ignored the past scene.
At that time, Li Hongmei had a feeling when she faced the widow Wang, like a fire in her chest, she couldn't go up or down, she was just lying there, poking her heart all the time.
It was getting dark, and there was a gurgling sound in the quiet room.
Li Hongmei came back to her senses, touched her shriveled belly, reached out and grabbed a nest head that had long been out of heat, and nibbled on it in small bites, while looking up to pay attention to the movement at the gate.
At the same time, at the dinner table of Widow Wang's house, Yun Sheng and Gu Shinian used the excuse that they had just eaten cornmeal batter and were not hungry, so they shared a three-way noodle steamed bun with the bolt to eat, while the rest of the old Yun family ate the black wowotou.
It's not that Yunshang didn't think about letting the old couple eat some fine grain, but in the words of the old lady, she and the old man are both people who are buried in the ground, how can they snatch food from the child's mouth.
Fortunately, the cabbage fried in the big iron pot tasted better than the cabbage that Lao Yun's family used to boil, and the smile on the face of the old couple did not fade even if they were gnawing on the nest head.
After eating, Yunshang handed over the gifts in the basket to everyone, and pushed the malt milk essence bought for the plug to the old lady, "Milk, you have put away this malt milk essence, and make a bowl of soup for the plug every morning and before going to bed." ”
This malt milk essence was handed over to Yun Erchuan, and he still had to hand it over to Li Hongmei after he went back, Yun Sheng was naturally not happy, even if Li Hongmei did not eat with a button, she was not happy.
Therefore, it is better to hand over this malt milk essence to the old lady.
The old couple finally noticed that Yun Sheng didn't prepare a gift for Li Hongmei this time, and saw that Yun Sheng handed over the malt milk essence bought for the plug to the old lady, instead of handing it over to Yun Erchuan, and knew in their hearts that Yun Sheng was dissatisfied with Li Hongmei.
Yun Erchuan also realized this, his mouth moved, and after all, he didn't dare to ruin the atmosphere to help Li Hongmei say good things.
After the people of the old Yun family left, Yun Sheng placed the widow Wang on the small kang in the side house, and when she came back, she collapsed directly on the hot kang and did not move.
Gu Shinian went out to close the door, came back to the kang and laid the quilt, Yunshang rolled onto the quilt, and asked, "Second Brother Gu, what did the village chief say in the afternoon, how much food does the village probably need?" ”
Gu Shinian grabbed Yunsheng's feet, and took off her socks neatly, "Each team counts more than 9,000 catties, and the village chief said, no matter what kind of food, as long as you can eat it......"
"So much?" Yunshang was shocked. “
"This grain is not much, there are almost 200 families in the village, and each family can only get about 50 catties. For a large family, how long can you eat fifty catties of grain. ”
"Some of the people in the village have survived." Gu Shinian sighed, "What the village chief means is that we can get as much grain as we can, and the money to buy grain will come out first in the village, and when the money is distributed to the villagers at the end of the year, he will deduct the money from door to door." ”
Yun Sheng nodded, silently counting the amount of coarse grains in the warehouse, "Second Brother Gu, there doesn't seem to be a lot of coarse grains in the warehouse." ”
"Sweet potatoes and potatoes are now considered grains, and the sorghum rice, millet and buckwheat oats in the supermarket should add up to about the same. If that's not enough, bring some brown corn. ”
Yunshang answered, and his consciousness entered the space again to take inventory, and found that there were really a lot of sweet potatoes and potatoes in the warehouse, and he was really relieved in his heart.
………………
Lao Yun's family, Li Hongmei was lying in the quilt, thinking about the beautifully packaged alabaster in Yun Shuilian's hand, and the secret fire in her heart rose for a while.
Turning his head, he pushed Yun Erchuan beside him, "Erchuan, sleeping?" ”
"Hmm."
Even if she couldn't see Yun Erchuan's face, Li Hongmei could feel the impatience and coldness implied in his voice.
Li Hongmei bit her lip, and the grievances in her heart surged up again, "...... Erchuan, Shang Nan bought a box of alabaster for Shuilian. ”
"Hmm."
In the dark, Yun Erchuan turned over and answered even more quietly.
"I also bought clam oil for my mother......"
"Li Hongmei, what do you want to say?" Yun Erchuan was impatient in his heart, and asked as calmly as possible.
"She also bought gifts for you and your father, but the whole family didn't buy anything for me and the bolt."
"I bought a bucket of malt milk essence for the plug, and I asked my mother to take her house."
Li Hongmei: "......"
So, this big family has gifts, but they didn't buy her gifts?
Li Hongmei's face turned red, she was angry.
“…… Erchuan, do you have any opinions about me? Afraid that Yun Erchuan would think too much, Li Hongmei hurriedly explained, "I'm not a greedy gift, but this shouldn't be done." The clam oil is not expensive, and she can buy a box of ...... for her mother."
"Clam oil is not expensive, you can buy a box yourself, it's over, go to sleep."
Yun Erchuan was impatient to listen to her verbosity, covered his head with the quilt, and directly pulled up a small snoring.
Li Hongmei listened to Yun Erchuan's snoring, and a mouthful of old blood almost spurted out.
Is this a box of clam oil?
It's a matter of mind!
That little girl doesn't have any heart for her, so Yun Erchuan can't see it?
Li Hongmei couldn't stand it aggrievedly, and secretly scolded Yun Sheng in her heart for not understanding personnel, and stretched her foot out of the quilt and kicked Yun Erchuan hard, so the anger in her heart was a little less.
