It took a day to walk 60 miles to reach my father-in-law's house.

My father-in-law rarely eats white rice, peels off the tender bud grain and pushes it into foam on the stone mill, then puts some saccharin, beats it on the top of the fresh mulberry leaves that have been washed and cleaned one by one, and puts it in the steamer to steam, which is called bud grain baba.

But my father-in-law has a lot of plum trees in March, and every harvest season, I must be present before I go to school, crispy, bite down, the plum is halved, and there is oil in it.

There are many mosquitoes at night, and my mother-in-law sits in the hall with a pu fan in her arms.

"Mother-in-law, I want to watch TV." Jiaojiao remembers that the next-door neighbor of her mother-in-law had a TV, and the family lived in a red brick house, with a lot of oil paintings hanging in the hall, and the walls were painted snow-white, unlike the mother-in-law's earthen walls and wheat straw roofs, with many big cracks.

"Okay, let's watch TV." Jiaojiao got up and was about to leave, but was hugged by her mother-in-law and pointed to a boxy thing on the wall of the hall, with a round net-like bulge in the middle: "That's the TV, but ah, the person who put the TV hasn't finished eating yet, let's wait for someone to eat." ”

Jiaojiao nodded, looking at her father-in-law's TV curiously, how could it be different from the TV she had seen!

"Mother-in-law, how long will the TV show eat? Why don't you turn on the TV yet? ”

"Wait, wait."

Jiaojiao fell asleep, and asked her mother-in-law the next day: "Let's have an early meal tonight and wait to watch TV." ”

As a result, in the days when she was playing at her mother-in-law's house, Jiaojiao didn't wait for the person who put on the TV to turn on the TV on time after eating.

"Qixiao, why is your TV different from others?" Jiaojiao asked her mother's youngest sister.

Qixiao looked at her strangely: "Where did the TV come from?" ”

Jiaojiao pointed to the square box: "It only talks every day, but there is no one." ”

Jiaojiao was angry, but the seven children laughed and did not speak.

When she got home, Jiaojiao said that she would never go to her mother-in-law's house again, and Jiaojiao didn't understand the doubts in her heart and asked Huang: "Mom, why is there always no one on the TV at my grandmother's house?" ”

"What TV?"

"That's it," Jiaojiao gestured anxiously.

"Silly girl, that's the broadcast. Does the broadcast know? There is only sound, no one. ”

Broadcast? Isn't radio the kind of loudspeaker? How does my mother-in-law's house look like that, it's very small and beautiful.

Dad served Jiaojiao a meal, and Jiaojiao looked at the dishes on the table: "Dad, I also saw fresh ear melon (chayote) and bamboo shoots (coconut white) at home yesterday, why don't you fry it?" ”

"Oh, I sold it."

Sold? Why? Jiaojiao has 10,000 question marks, she doesn't have to eat it, and she still sells it?

In the future, it's better for Dad not to be at home, the food is really bad, there is nothing, and there is no food.

She had seen a lot of fresh vegetables at home yesterday.

"I have something to go out for two months, and you go to live at the fifth father's house in these two months, so that you and Lingmei can go to school."

"Oh." Jiaojiao nodded and didn't ask anything.

After school, Jiaojiao and Lingmei rushed out of the school gate in one breath, and climbed the first col in one breath, the second, the third, and saw the fifth aunt picking vegetables in the vegetable field in front of the door in the side courtyard of the fifth father's house, and the fifth aunt smiled when she saw Jiaojiao: "Jiaojiao, your mother is back." ”

"Really?"

It's good that when my mother comes back, she doesn't have to live at her fifth father's house.

"yes, but I brought you a brother back! Your mother won't love you anymore, she doesn't want you anymore. ”
