Amy came home and found that Grandma Wang was not at home, and asked Niuniu, who said that Grandma Wang had gone to Aunt Zhou's house.

Although she didn't know what Grandma Wang was doing at Aunt Zhou's house, she still didn't chase her out, but sat next to Niuniu and instructed her to write.

After a while, Grandma Wang came back with a chicken on crutches and happily.

Amy took the chicken from her hand in surprise and asked:

"Grandma, where did you get this chicken?"

"Hey, after you leave, I don't have nothing to do, just go up the mountain every day to pick up mushrooms, don't you say, my luck is good, I picked up a lot of mushrooms, you can change a lot of work, I mentioned these mushrooms to your Aunt Zhou's house, and she exchanged a chicken, she promised me, wait until the spring next year, send me two chicks, then, we will raise these two chickens, and eggs to eat!"

Grandma Wang said as she walked towards the stove.

When Amy heard what happened, she knew that Grandma Wang must have gone up the mountain to pick mushrooms and exchanged a chicken with Aunt Zhou. But this chicken is too valuable.

"Grandma, while this chicken is not dead, let's quickly return it to Aunt Zhou and exchange the basket of hazelnut mushrooms back."

As she spoke, Amy was about to grab Grandma Wang's hand, but Grandma Wang understood what she meant and bypassed her hand directly:

"I've brought it back, and now I'll change it back, what do you want Aunt Zhou to think of me, besides, I'm not just giving you one person to eat, Ming Ke and Niuniu haven't eaten for a long time, they must be hungry, we called Ming Ke over at noon today." He also has to cook. ”

"But ......" After listening to Grandma Wang's words, Amy was still a little distressed, she was reluctant to eat this chicken that was exchanged for hazelnut mushrooms that Grandma Wang had worked so hard to pick, and wanted to open her mouth to persuade again, but Grandma Wang waved her hand:

"Okay, Xiaomi, I know what you mean, but isn't this how people get along? You are good to me and Niuniu, I remember it in my heart, but you also know that there is nothing to repay you for the situation of my family, and I finally got a chicken for you to eat, and grandma is happier than anything else. ”

"Grandma, I understand your heart for me, I have it in my heart, if you really want to be good to me, just make today's paste thicker, you really don't need to eat this chicken."

"Oh, why are you like this, I said that this is not just for you to eat, Niuniu, don't Xiao Ming and I have to eat? Don't grind, help me kill this chicken, and stew it. ”

Seeing that Grandma Wang had talked about this, Amy would be a little hypocritical if she refused, so she nodded, and then brought the chicken to the kitchen.

Amy stood on the ground with her hands on her hips and looked at the sturdy hen tied by herself, and felt her head big for the first time...... She'd never done it before, and she really didn't know how to do it.

Grandma Wang stood bent over in the yard, looking at Amy with a sad face by the stove, and chuckled, she went to the place where the kitchen utensils were put and took a kitchen knife, walked to Amy's side, and killed the chicken in three strokes and two strokes.

Dead chickens are much easier to deal with than live chickens, so Amy pressed the firewood into the stove, then lit a fire to boil water, quickly removed the feathers, and cooked them with the only spices in the house.

Although this meal is not as complete as modern seasonings, nor is it as delicious as modern smoked chicken, Amy is very satisfied.

Of course, most of the chicken in this meal still fell into the bowls of Niuniu and Grandma Wang, and Ming Ke and Amy basically tasted it, and then they didn't move, no matter how much Grandma Wang persuaded them, they didn't eat an extra piece.

Soon it was evening, and Amy took out the textbooks she had bought for Niuniu from her bag and took Minke and Niuniu to the study class.

As soon as she entered the classroom, Amy saw the pillar whispering in Zhang Hui's ear, and Zhang Hui laughed wildly.

Seeing that she stared at Zhang Hui and didn't come back to her senses, Ming Ke sighed deeply in her heart, and then walked over and changed positions with Zhang Hui.

Zhang Hui agreed, but Zhuzi looked at her pitifully like an abandoned dog. She gave the pillar a reassuring look, then left with her kerosene lamp.

After a while, Amy was about to ask Zhang Hui when the pillar came over and placed his kerosene lamp not far from Zhang Hui, and instructed:

"Stay away from the kerosene lamp, the oil chokes your throat and smokes your eyes."

After speaking, Zhu Zi returned to his place, but instead of reading, he turned around and looked straight at Zhang Hui, smirking from time to time.

Amy took Zhang Hui's hand and asked quietly:

"Sister Hui, why did you get involved with him, don't you know that he is violent?"

"I know!" Zhang Hui said a word, then sighed and held Amy's hand:

"Xiaomi, I know you're doing it for my good, but I'm pretty good now, we educated youths don't know when we'll be able to go home, instead of looking forward to it, I'd better find someone from the village to marry!"

"But, I remember you said you had a fiancé in the city!"

"Hey, don't mention it" Zhang Hui smiled bitterly, and then said:

"He felt that I had no hope of being an educated youth, so he fell in love with another girl early, and our marriage was blown."

Amy whispered "ah", thinking that Zhang Hui was disappointed in the men in the city because of her fiancé, and wanted to find someone to marry:

"Sister Hui, you believe me, even if your fiancé is a scumbag, there are still good men in the city, you can't just give up and talk to someone casually!"

Hearing her words, Zhang Hui laughed, and then said:

"Why do you think I'm with the pillar for the sake of anger!"

Amy was surprised and glanced at the pillar, but she couldn't find anything on him that people liked.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Hui said:

"At first, I didn't look down on him, until one day he helped me carry a load of water to the house, I suddenly felt that this man was not bad, and then I heard from the aunt of the family that he was friendly with the military son of Grandma Wang's family, and then after the military son died, it went over from time to time to help their grandchildren."

Amy listened to her, nodded, and said:

"Indeed, Zhu Zi does often go to my house to help Grandma Wang carry water and chop firewood."

"Yes, I just heard about this and thought this man was very interesting, everyone said that he was short-tempered and cold-blooded, but he could be good to an old lady for several years."

Amy looked at the smile on Zhang Hui's face and knew that she was falling in love.

However, when she thought of the pillar beating Chaoxia like that in front of everyone's eyes, she couldn't help but be stunned, and she hurriedly patted her hands:

"Although what you said is true, the person Zhuzi may not be as bad as the outside world evaluates, but don't forget that after Chaoxia married Zhuzi, she was beaten basically every day. We're good friends, and I don't want to see you like that. ”

Amy's words made Zhang Hui pause for a while, she raised her head and glanced at the man who was full of her, and said to Amy fiercely:

"Maybe what my sister said is a bit exaggerated, but isn't marriage just a gamble! Sister wants to gamble, if the bet loses, I will admit what bad the outcome is. ”

Amy listened to her words and asked helplessly:

"There are so many good men in the world, why do you have to hang yourself on this crooked-necked tree?"

"Because he was so good to me, when I was a child, there were five children in the family, my parents hurt the most is my eldest brother and then the youngest sister, I and the remaining two sisters no one hurts, it stands to reason that the three of us should hug together for warmth, but the family is too poor, there is something that everyone is quick to stuff into their mouths, how can they take care of others! Growing up in this environment, I also developed a selfish temperament, whether at home or at the youth point, I always care about myself. But the arrival of the pillar made me feel warm, he would help carry water for the family every day, help me add clothes when it was cold, and help me carry a kerosene lamp when I was studying......"

After finishing speaking, Zhang Hui turned her head to look at her, and then spoke again:

"Xiaomi, you know what? No one has ever been so good to me, I am a girl who is more powerful than a man in the face of people outside the pillar, only I can be weak in front of him, because he will help me with everything, although most people are watching my jokes, but as long as he has been so good to me, I am not afraid at all. ”

Amy listened to her words, and she was also quite touched in her heart, it turned out that Zhang Hui's family environment was like this, if she thought about it from another perspective, she suddenly met a man who was so good to her, I am afraid that she would also fall into it:

"Sister Hui, I have become the first person to support you now, you must remember, if the pillar bullies you, you must tell me, see that I don't take Ming Ke to beat him to death."

Zhang Hui smiled and blinked the tears that flashed because she was moved.

An hour later, the study class ended, and as soon as the pillar heard the word "class", he couldn't wait to run out of his seat, and ran to Zhang Hui's side with a smirk:

"I'm out of class, I'll send you home!"

"Look at you stupid."

Zhang Hui was disgusted, but with both hands he handed two kerosene lamps to his hands.

The pillar quickly took the kerosene lamp, and accused in his mouth:

"I've told you, I'll let this kind of thing happen, if you accidentally spill the kerosene inside on your hands, I'll see how you hug me and cry."

Hearing his words, Zhang Hui stretched out her hand and twisted him fiercely, raised her head and looked at most of the people in the classroom who were packing up their things and didn't notice them, so she was relieved.
