Chapter 5: Grandma
Everyone got up and washed up, and after Dong Shuxue brushed his teeth, he found that everyone was brushing their teeth with branches.
This made her stunned for a moment, this toothpaste and toothbrush all need tickets, so it's normal that they don't have them.
Although Dong Shuxue can take out a lot of things, there is no need to be a virgin.
There are too many people in the family, and she can't help them all, so if she can be stable, let's be stable.
Everyone was carrying rice bowls and chopsticks, and she was holding a lunch box, which she had brought back from the city.
"Sister Xue, can you hold food in this iron box? We are all small pots. Xiaohua looked at the white and pure Dong Shuxue and wanted to get close to her.
"Yes, it's all the same." Dong Shuxue is not impatient, children are like this, they will be curious.
"Little flower, look at it when you walk." A teenage girl tugged at Xiaohua, and then walked forward with a frown.
Dong Shuxue glanced at her, and saw that she glanced at herself from time to time, as if she didn't know.
The child looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old, and although his clothes were patched, they were clean and tidy.
I don't know why, Dong Shuxue felt that this kid was also curious about herself, but she kept pretending to be cold.
These kids are really cute, and each of them has a very interesting personality.
The canteen is in the village headquarters of the brigade, and a large house was specially built, and a large long table inside was also newly made.
There are already a lot of people inside, just waiting for the meal to start at seven o'clock.
"Oh, why did you come, auntie?" A woman in her forties said something to Li Daya, and she didn't forget to pull her own child while talking.
Children love to fight, and after a while, the queue will be disrupted.
"Whose child is this? It's so good-looking. She looked at Dong Shuxue and asked Li Daya.
Dong Shuxue is really good-looking, with the big eyes and double eyelids of the original owner's father, she looks white and clean, and she is not short.
At the age of fourteen, he is already one meter six or five tall, and this height is definitely very high now.
Nowadays, people can't eat well and can't keep up with nutrition, and some men are as tall as one meter six, so you can imagine how many people will come to see the original owner at this station.
"This is the child of the fourth child of my family, and he will stay at our house in the future." Li Daya looked at her child rarely.
She didn't notice everyone's eyes, and it was precisely because she knew that she felt proud.
I can't find anyone who is better looking than Dong Shuxue, and I am polite and polite, and I came from the city.
Dong Shuxue was smiling all the way, allowing others to look at her casually.
Look? I can't see a piece of meat down.
The morning meal is particularly hearty, and now that the autumn harvest has just ended, the big pot rice is all delicious.
The staple food is two rice, as well as stir-fried vegetables and stewed dishes. You can eat whatever you like, but you can make it.
The big guys eat with their bellies open, and they eat for nothing anyway, and they don't eat for nothing.
Dong Shuxue was a little surprised, what should I do when I eat it like this now?
She sighed, according to this way of eating, it is estimated that everyone will be tied to their necks together and wait to starve to death after the New Year.
"Sister Xue, is it enough for you to eat such a little food?" A little boy of seven or eight years old sat next to her.
This is also a child of the old Song family, it seems that his name is Xiaobao, and he watched Juanzi coax him to sleep yesterday.
"Enough to eat, you eat more." Dong Shuxue nodded with a smile and looked at his small basin full of food.
It is said to be a small basin, but it is actually a little larger than a bowl of two taels. It's just that such a basin is suitable for children, and they are not afraid of breaking.
Adults use large bowls, and this fear of falling is still safe for adults. Every family eats like this, and if one of them goes bad, someone has to starve.
The cafeteria was bustling with activity, and it felt like a seat. Dong Shuxue walked back with Juanzi first after eating, and she was almost annoyed to death by the commotion inside.
After coming out, she breathed a sigh of relief, she felt like her ears were ringing just now, and she started talking when there were many people eating, and she couldn't stand the noise too much.
"Xiaoxue, have you eaten well?" Juanzi looked at her, just now she didn't eat much, and felt a little pity.
Now I finally came across a big pot of rice, and I can't eat hard.
"I'm full, who are you bringing back to eat?" Dong Shuxue looked at the small basin in her hand, which contained two rice and vegetables.
Juanzi smiled and replied: "We have another one at home, I'm too grand, have you forgotten?" (The name is different in various places, and in the northeast, grandpa's mother is called grandma.) )
Dong Shuxue was stunned for a moment, then thought about it, and then remembered that there was indeed another one in the side room of their house, who was quite old, and he usually didn't go out of the house.
She did the math, this old lady seems to be almost eighty, right? It's really rare to see people living at such an old age in this era.
"Ah, I remember." Dong Shuxue nodded awkwardly, and then followed her home.
Now that the autumn harvest is over, other people go to the warehouse to pick up buds (corn) and thresh them, so that they can cook and eat after grinding.
There are many mountains here, and there are many budding rice growers, so you can't see rice at all. Here, rice is the most precious.
"Xiaoxue, I'll go and bring food to my grandmother, you can go back to the house." Juanzi let her go into the house.
Dong Shuxue hurriedly said: "I'll go with you too, and I can't help but see my grandmother when I come back." ”
It's impossible for this to be so rude as a junior, so be sure to go over and take a look.
Juanzi was quite surprised to hear that she was going to see the grandmother, because the children didn't want to go to the grandmother, saying that the grandmother's house tasted bad, so they didn't like to go.
"Okay." She nodded and didn't refuse, and then took her with her.
Grandma's room is next to the big house, and there is a small house in the other, which also has a kang inside, which is enough for two people to sleep, and the stove pit is outside.
On the left hand side of the door is the kang, and at a glance you can see an old lady lying on the kang.
Dong Shuxue looked at the old lady pursing her lips, and knew that she had no teeth. It is normal to have no teeth at this age, and you can wear dentures in later generations.
There are some now, but dentures are too rare in rural areas, and most of them are mostly worn by urban people.
"It's too grandma, it's time to eat." Juanzi greeted, and then brought the small kang table.
Dong Shuxue hurriedly said: "Grandma, I am Dong Shuxue, Song Xuehua's daughter, come to see you." ”
"Huh? Snowflake's daughter? The old lady raised her hand and tugged.
Dong Shuxue looked at it, and the old lady couldn't see it. Only then did she find that her eyes were a little cloudy, which should have been caused by geriatric illness and blindness.
"Come and sit." With a smile on her face, she said, "I can't see with this eye, I can see the shadow, Xiaoxue is on the edge of the kang." ”
Dong Shuxue answered, and then sat next to her honestly.
Juanzi fed the old lady, and from time to time the old lady asked Dong Shuxue two words.
