Chapter 04: Suppressed

The pigsty is just south of the firewood house where they live, and in order to feel better, Shen Mingxi and the eldest brother and second brother clean it almost every day, so the taste is not big.

Perhaps it was the delicate care that these two pigs grew very well.

Looking at the pig with its head bowed to eat, the long-term memory suddenly became clear.

She remembered that at the end of this year, the two pigs were more than one hundred and fifty catties, and one of them was turned in, and she was praised by the captain, because the pigs raised by the Shen family were the largest and fattest.

Mrs. Shen is very happy, and when she meets people, she praises Shen Baozhi for her good fortune and good eyes, and with her, the life at home is getting better and better.

At that time, everyone in the tunzi thought that the pigs were fed by Shen Baozhi.

But she obviously didn't do anything.

And she and her family only drank a mouthful of broth on the day of the pig killing, and they didn't even eat the meat.

And the rest of the meat was made into bacon and marinated meat by Mrs. Shen and put it away.

said that it was left for Shen Baozhi and the filial second and third sons to eat.

In short, there is no part of theirs.

Shen Mingxi furrowed her brows, why hadn't she thought about these things before, it didn't seem right.

But what's wrong?

She couldn't help but rub her forehead in faint pain.

At this time, the second uncle Shen Hai walked out of the main house, wearing a new half-sleeved shirt and trousers, and he was the only one in the family who ate commercial grain.

He works in a supply and marketing cooperative.

Earn a monthly salary.

His job was given to him by his father, and Mrs. Shen said that the second child was not in good health and could not farm, so she asked Shen Yu to hand over the work.

And Shen Yu obediently went home to farm.

Shen Mingxi looked at the second uncle blankly, and when he got closer, the second uncle actually had a full burp, as if he didn't see Shen Mingxi, he swaggered to work.

There was a sound in the firewood room, and Shen Mingxi turned around and saw that it was the second brother Shen Qingshan.

He and the eldest brother are twins, and there is a difference of ten minutes between the front and back, the eyebrows and eyes are similar, but the expression is different, and the second brother looks tougher.

He took a piece of straw rope, tied it around his waist, tied a slipknot vigorously, and showed a big smile at Shen Mingxi, "Xiaoxi, if you tie it tightly, you won't be hungry, really, it works......"

Shen Mingxi looked at the second brother in a daze, not noticing that his hands were trembling.

For the first time, she began to have some kind of consciousness, something she had never thought about in her previous life.

It was as if a beam of light had broken through the fog of her thoughts in an instant.

Everything in front of her was like someone hammering her head with a hammer.

The second uncle hiccuped, but her second brother was hungry every day, but the second brother was so capable, he never missed work, and he earned all the full work, and the money and tickets he earned every year were much more than the second uncle, and the second uncle wanted to support a family, but the second brother should not need it, why did he still starve?

Shen Mingxi's head hurt even more.

There seemed to be a mess in her brain, something seemed to be about to break out of the ground, but she was suppressed by something, she endured it, because everyone in the family came out.

She hid her inexplicable abnormality, suppressed her crazy thoughts, and quietly followed her father and brother to the team headquarters to assemble.

Nowadays, it is still a collective system, and the work is done together, and the grain is also divided together, and the same is true for farm tools.

Shen Mingxi received the sickle, and she wanted to go to cut wheat with everyone.

The weather station in the county came to inform them that there might be a storm in the coming week, so the winter wheat in the mountains must be stored before the rainstorm comes, because it is their hard-earned crops and survival rations.

Sixteen-year-old Shen Mingxi is a good worker, and she walks briskly towards the endless golden wheat fields.

Behind her was Aunt Zhang in the front yard, who was also going to work, but she was older and was assigned to work in the threshing floor by the captain.

She followed briskly and asked with concern, "Xiaoxi, are you feeling better?" ”

Shen Mingxi was silent for a moment, her suppressed feeling had faded a lot at this time, and she smiled at Aunt Zhang, "Aunt Zhang, I'm already well, thank you for your concern." ”

Although the little girl is thin, she is good-looking, her eyes are like a puddle of water, and her heart is soft when she sees it, she grinned at the corners of her mouth, "Xiaoxi, although you haven't studied, I think you are educated, your grandmother's eccentric eye, it doesn't hurt to put such a good child, and she will regret it in the future." ”

Shen Mingxi didn't pick up, hooked the corners of his mouth, "Aunt Zhang, I'm going to work, the sun is poisonous today, you slow down, don't go too fast......"

"Oh, good boy, go ahead." Aunt Zhang said with a smile.

Shen Mingxi sped up and quickly caught up with the Shen family in front.

And Aunt Zhang is obedient and slowed down, but unfortunately she kept sighing, this child is good-looking and a good worker, and he is still sensible and filial, and he has reached the age of saying kiss, she knows that many people in the tunzi have taken a fancy to her, but no one dares to propose marriage.

Because Mrs. Shen said that she was a mourning star.

It is also evil to say, since she was born, Shen Yu's family has not had a good thing.

First of all, Chen Li almost died of heavy bleeding, and finally the full moon, Shen Yu broke his leg and raised it for three months to recover, and after that, Shen Yu's family never broke the disaster.

Shen Yu coughed all the year round and struggled to speak, and the two younger ones born later were also born weak, especially the youngest, their lips were bruised, and their heads were big, so it was not good to look at.

Although the eldest and second are not sick, they often either break their heads, or twist their feet, or walk and fall.

In short, how miserable and miserable this Shen Yu's family is.

Everyone gradually believed Mrs. Shen's words about the Mourning Star, otherwise, how to explain this seemingly accidental but not simple thing?

A few middle-aged women of the same age as her, seeing Aunt Zhang in a daze, knew what was going on, and the mean-looking Aunt Zhu pouted, "What's the use of looking good, the whole mourning star, who married who is unlucky......"

Aunt Zhang's eyes widened, "Zhu Wujia, you speak with a little virtue, Xiaoxi didn't recruit you and didn't provoke you, and the day before yesterday I helped you carry firewood home, you can't be without conscience!" ”

Aunt Zhu also seemed to remember, speaking of which, this child is so good, why is he a mourning star?

"I'm ...... I also listened to Mrs. Shen. ”

"Then let me ask you, saying that Xiaoxi is a mourning star, then why are Mrs. Shen, Shen Laoer, and Shen Laosan all good for so many years?"

"Mrs. Shen said that Shen Baozhi is a lucky star, if she is not here, the Shen family will be finished." Aunt Zhu looked around with her eyes and lowered her voice, "I'm telling you the truth, when Baozhi was born, it rained heavily for more than half a month, and the cherry trees and sand fruit trees outside Mrs. Shen's yard were all in bloom, and Mrs. Shen said that her old cold legs were also healed, that year, our life was very good, you won't forget this, right?" ”
