"I want to do it, and I need to have a key."

"You won't do it without a key? There are shepherd's cabbage and bracken everywhere outside, and the three of us will eat it at noon, so you can dig some shepherd's cabbage in the morning and come back and cook a soup. It's really not a good home, I don't know how to save some food. ”

"It's not that there is no food, why do you eat wild vegetables every day? Don't think I don't know, you want to save our rations for your baby girl. If you want to eat, give me the key to get food, and if you don't give me food, then we will starve together. ”

She just came here a few days ago, but she didn't understand the situation, and the original owner was not shrewd, so she really thought that the family was short of food to the point that she had to eat wild vegetables to live.

It wasn't until this morning that she went to the grain house to get sweet potato noodles, and she unexpectedly found two bags piled up behind the door.

Now that I think about it, it is very likely that Mrs. Mei took out all the coarse grains at home and exchanged them for fine grains with others and came back to secretly feed her daughter.

Otherwise, why is the Mei family's rations so small?

"You ......"

Mrs. Mei found out that now as long as she talks to this girl, her heart, liver and lungs hurt.

"I saw your bag of construction powder!"

Mrs. Mei's complexion changed greatly!

"Make white noodles at noon, if you don't agree, when the third uncle and the fourth uncle come back, I will tell them that you will deduct our rations for fine grain and secretly give them to the fourth aunt."

Mrs. Mei almost fainted, and muttered for a long time, "Why are your eyes so sharp?" ”

That thing has been there for more than a month, and the third and fourth daughters-in-law have never found it.

"Who knows? Maybe God opened my eyes to settle this injustice in the world? ”

The corners of Mrs. Mei's mouth trembled a few times, and she had to give her the key.

Mei Qingjiu took it and smiled, "Milk, don't forget to make me a copy when you open a small stove for my fourth aunt in the future." You are good to me, maybe I am more filial to you than the fourth aunt. ”

"Are you filial to me? Just don't me off! Mrs. Mei said angrily.

Mei Qingjiu didn't say much, took the key and went to tile noodles, and noodles, rolling dough, cutting noodles, she moved very quickly, and after getting these done, she went to her own field to pull a few shallots and a handful of greens back.

"Xiao Cong came to light the fire for my sister."

"Okay."

The sister and brother worked together, and after a while, a small pot of vegetables and noodles were cooked, and three bowls were just empty.

Mrs. Mei was even more angry when she saw that Xiao Cong actually ate noodles, "A money-losing person wants to eat noodles?" ”

Umeshisake, "......"

Xiao Cong didn't listen to her now, she said that he just didn't hear it, and said to Mei Qingjiu, "I want to leave some for the eldest brother and second brother." ”

"You don't have to keep it, eat it yourself." When she was tiling the noodles just now, she took advantage of Mrs. Mei's inattention, and secretly got some of them into her own kitchen, and when the two brothers came back, they could remake them.

"Then I'll divide it with you, I can't finish it."

Mei Qingjiu saw that his bowl was big, as if he couldn't finish eating, and nodded, "Okay." ”

Mrs. Mei's eyes rolled when she saw this.

——

In the evening, Liu Xiaoli and Zhang Caifeng came back with their children, and as soon as Liu Xiaoli entered the house, she went into the kitchen to sniff around, wanting to see if the family was eating delicious food behind her back.

What a dog's nose!

It's a pity that Mei Qingjiu has already washed the pots and bowls, and she can't see anything.

After a while, the Mei Jiaxing brothers also returned, and the two of them looked happy.
