It took three or four stops along the way to reach the foot of the mountain. Although this body has a good foundation, it often can't eat enough, and its strength is still a little worse. At the foot of the mountain, a few half-grown children were picking up dry branches, and when they saw Quiet coming down from the mountain, they all looked at her with timid eyes. They were a little scared of quietness before, but now they are afraid. The story of Quiet using a knife to cut people has long been spread throughout the village, and for these children, Quiet is an existence that is not easy to mess with, and cannot be provoked.

Ignore them, quietly walk home, at this time the sun is already hanging in the middle, calculate the time, back and forth, about six or seven hours, that is, in this era, the so-called more than three hours. As soon as he walked to the front of the house, Jiaming's voice sounded in the house: "The eldest sister is back!" The voice was full of joy, and as the sound fell, three figures went out the door.

Anxin stepped forward quickly to help her sister unload the basket and move it into the house, and brought a bowl of warm water to the eldest sister. She didn't want her eldest sister to go into the mountains, but she couldn't stop it, because she and her eldest sister could eat less and endure hunger. But the younger brothers and sisters can't, they are still young, and they are still growing up, so she can only hold back the words that are blocking in her heart, and can only pray in her heart, praying that her father and mother can bless the eldest sister and let the eldest sister return safely.

After drinking the water quietly, he eased up at this time, pulled the withered grass eight on the back basket, took out the pheasant and roe deer, and said happily to the three people: "Look, what did the eldest sister fight?" ”

Jiaming looked at the prey on the ground excitedly, his face full of incredulity. Then he said happily: "Eldest sister, this is what you beat, do we have meat to eat?" Xiao Jia said that she was already stunned at this time, and when she heard her brother say that she ate meat, she subconsciously swallowed her saliva, and looked up and down a few times to see that he was not injured, so she was relieved.

Quietly, he held Xiao Jiashu in his arms and asked softly, "Jiayue, is it okay for my sister to stew chicken for you?" Xiao Jiayue's eyes widened and she asked in surprise, "Really?" Did the eldest sister really give me stewed chicken to eat? Isn't chicken delicious? I don't even remember what the chicken tasted like. "In a word, it is quiet and distressed! Yes, since Daddy died, they haven't eaten meat for a year. Not to mention meat, even oil and water have not seen a few times, not a clear porridge that can shine on people, or the nest head of cornmeal, just this is not enough, Yueyue was born small and thin, like a kitten, it is not easy to feed, but the body bones are much weaker, and now I hear that I eat meat, and finally see the long-lost light in those eyes. After Sun gave birth to twins, his health has not been good, and these two children were born in a dozen years, most of the time they were quiet, so they were particularly distressed by the quiet of these two children, especially Xiao Jiayue, who was weak.

kissed Jiayue's little face, stood up quietly, and said to a few children, "Sister, I'll give you stew." ”

At this time, the second sister Anxin had already boiled a pot of water, and the two sisters were busy removing the chicken feathers and disemboweling. Quiet pulled off the chicken skin, chopped it with a knife and threw it into the pot, and with a "zi" sound, the fragrance instantly filled the entire kitchen. The chicken in the spring is not fat, and the skin of the whole chicken has only developed a small puddle of oil, and the oil is scooped out quietly with a bowl and kept for the next cooking. Put the chopped chicken into the pot, stir-fry a few times, add two scoops of cold water, pinch two pinches of salt and throw it into the pot, and paste a circle of cornmeal tortillas in the pot, and then use the pot to cover the pot tightly.

After simmering for an hour or so, I quietly took the wooden basin and tasted the saltiness with a spoon. Well, exactly. Pick out the cakes, put them in a bamboo basket, put the stewed chicken into the bowls, and bring the full four bowls of stewed chicken to the table, clapped his hands quietly and said: "We don't have any extra bowls today, just hold the cakes with your hands and eat the chicken, don't be stunned, let's start quickly!" ”

After listening to the eldest sister's words, several people ate happily. Everyone had enough to eat for the meal. Four bowls of chicken and half a basket of cakes are the best meals that the four siblings have eaten in a year. Not only meat, but also bread, and everyone was satisfied. Everyone's heart is warm. Especially the two little ones, when they saw the eldest sister lying motionless on the bed, their hearts were very scared, they were afraid that the eldest sister would never wake up again, just like her father. In those days, they always ran to the corner and cried secretly, but then the eldest sister got better, and took them to move to a new house, and now they eat meat again, and from then on, they no longer have to be afraid of those people beating and scolding them.

The eldest sister was tired for a day, so she had to let the eldest sister rest more, she grabbed a handful of ashes from the stove and used it to wash the dishes and chopsticks. Anxin is working on his hands, but he has a smile on his face, a happy and satisfied smile. In the past, when my father was alive, I just did more work and could eat a full meal, but when my father left, I never ate a full meal, and I had endless work every day, and I was scolded and even beaten. Later, my mother also went, and those people were about to sell themselves, and she knew that those people wanted her to die, and she knew everything. But at that time, the eldest sister was sick, those people didn't look for Langzhong, and the younger brothers and sisters were still young, and they couldn't sleep hungry every day, she thought, maybe this is her life, then, so be it! Sell yourself, whether it's Chong Xi or the funeral, as long as you can exchange money, find a Langzhong for the eldest sister, so that the younger siblings can have a full meal. It doesn't matter if she's dead or alive. If you die early, you may be able to see your father and mother. Therefore, she did not say anything at that time, and she did not resist. It's just that God finally opened his eyes, and the eldest sister finally woke up, not only didn't let those people sell her, but also took them out of the wolf's den. She knows and believes in it! As long as the eldest sister is there, they can get by, and lo and behold, it's only the next day, and they have eaten meat and eaten a full meal. The eldest sister also said that the future will only get better and better, she believes in the eldest sister!

One chicken meal, one full meal, so that the four siblings are full of hope for their future lives...
