After walking for a while with the bamboo basket on his back, Xia Qiqi's eyes barely moved from the ground on both sides of the village road.

But there was not half a wild plant.

Even the dandelions, which are more common in late autumn, have not been seen in Xia Qiqi.

Sure enough, as in the memory of the original owner, not only the Xia family was poor, but the entire village was poor.

Whenever a wild vegetable grows out, it is picked by others, where is it her turn Xia Qiqi?

continued to walk forward, and unconsciously, Xia Qiqi had already left the scope of Dayu Village.

At the moment, she has two roads, one is to go to the mountains outside Dayu Village to see, if there are wild vegetables in the mountains, pick some back.

The other is to go back and wait for half a day to be hungry and add a night, but with her body and bones, if she doesn't eat something, I'm afraid she won't be able to survive tonight.

Looking at the empty bamboo-backed basket, Xia Qiqi chose the first path.

Horizontal and vertical are going to die, it's better to fight!

The road into the mountain is not easy to walk, and it is even more difficult for Xia Qiqi, who is already hungry and crazy.

Even if she crawled away, she barely walked a short distance.

But finally, I saw the shadow of wild vegetables.

It was mustard greens, looking at the leafy feather-shaped wild vegetables lying on the ground, Xia Qiqi was about to cry, she squatted down, and while picking, she couldn't help but stuff it into her mouth.

I'm so hungry, that hunger pang, it's brought by the original owner.

It has long been deeply imprinted in Xia Qiqi's mind.

The first time she saw wild vegetables, even if they were raw, she couldn't help but stuff them into her mouth, as if if if she didn't eat them, she would starve to death immediately......

Xia Qiqi kept stuffing raw wild vegetables into his mouth until he was in his stomach, and he couldn't stuff any wild vegetables anymore.

It wasn't until she smelled mustard greens that she began to retch, and she stopped stuffing wild vegetables.

At this moment, Xia Qiqi wanted to cry bitterly.

She understood, a child, a starving child, the little thought left in her heart.

She didn't want to die, and she didn't want to starve to death......

Stroking the belly full of raw wild vegetables, Xia Qiqi hoarsely said, looking at the little thinking left by the original owner, and also to himself:

"Good boy, you go! I promise you, from now on, I will not let you go hungry, and I will also help you take good care of your family! Let's go......"

After Xia Qiqi shouted these words, she could feel that something in her body was gradually passing.

Treating the wild vegetables in that place, she also lost the desire to fill her stomach desperately at the beginning.

She began to crouch down and pick wild vegetables.

Perhaps because he was 'full', Xia Qiqi moved quickly, and after a while, he picked a half-basket full of mustard greens.

The rest of the wild vegetables, she knew, she couldn't take back.

Xia Qiqi was a little reluctant, but she understood the four words according to her ability.

Put some ordinary leaves in the back basket to cover the mustard greens.

It's no wonder that Xia Qiqi has a lot of eyes, but the Xia family's four rooms are too poor, such a little wild vegetables is already hard-won, if they are still looked at by people with hearts, share some food, and the four rooms are afraid that they will not be able to survive.

Xia Qiqi, who followed the original path down the mountain, did not notice that after she left, a black shadow flashed to the place where she picked wild vegetables.

Following her example, she grabbed the wild vegetables on the ground and ate a big bite.

With just one bite, the black shadow spit out the wild vegetables in his mouth, and then he was grumpy and destroyed all the wild vegetables that had grown on the ground.

……

The way back to the village was unimpeded, and I didn't meet half a person.

The first thing Xia Qiqi did when he got home was to enter the four-room simple kitchen where only one person could stand and prepare dinner.

The four-room kitchen is smooth, don't say that there is no oil, not even the salt jar, I don't see it.

If it weren't for the fact that there was still half a bucket of water, Xia Qiqi really doubted that she could really make mustard greens into a dish.

Using half a basin of water, wash the mustard greens and chop them into cubes.

Burning the fire and washing the pot, Xia Qiqi put three scoops of water into the pot to boil, poured the chopped mustard cubes into the large iron pot, covered the pot, and waited for the mustard soup to be cooked.

Because they are diced, the mustard greens cook quickly.

Uncover the pot, a pot of mustard soup, boiled mustard greens, most of them sink to the bottom of the pot, and gently scoop them with a spatula, you can scoop up a lot of mustard greens.

Looking at this pot of soup without oil, Xia Qiqi was extremely satisfied.

Probably, the whole family can survive tonight!

Xia Qiqi squatted at the door of the stove, warming his small body by the little fire and residual heat in the stove.

There is a fire to roast, and there will be hot soup to drink later, Xia Qiqi feels happy.

She stared at the door, expecting her family to come back soon.

Until the stovetop is cool and the pan is cold.

Xia Duofu and Yu Guixiang took two female dolls, ten-year-old Xia Xiaohua and six-year-old Xia Xiaoduo, to appear outside the stove room in the fourth room.

Xia Qiqi added a fire to the stove, and just as he was about to go out to greet him, he heard Xia Xiaoduo crying.

Xia Duofu and Yu Guixiang were talking about something, but they were mainly sighing.

Xia Qiqi greeted him, and just wanted to ask what was going on, Xia Xiaoduo rushed over.

In Xia Qiqi's arms, he began to cry.

Xia Xiaohua also cried, although Yu Guixiang's eyes were red, but she didn't cry in the end.

Among the four people, the strongest is Xia Duofu, who has been comforting Yu Guixiang and asking Yu Guixiang to pay attention to the child in his belly.

"Tell my sister what the hell is going on!"

Xia Qiqi slowed down his voice and asked his two younger sisters.

But no one answered Xia Qiqi's question, just crying, as if he wanted to cry out his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys together.

Xia Qiqi set his eyes on Yu Guixiang, and heard Yu Guixiang sigh, "Duo'er is too ignorant, your brother Doudou is eating snacks, she ran up to grab Doudou."

was discovered by your grandmother, and your grandmother was going to sell her, so ...... So your father was in a hurry and slapped Duo'er! ”

Hearing that Xia Duofu hit Xia Xiaohua, Xia Qiqi looked at Xia Duofu with a little more look, three points of questioning, and five points of sadness!

Doudou Xia Qiqi knows that the son of the Xia family's big house is the eldest grandson of Mrs. Xia.

Xia Duolu went to the city to do business three years ago and died on the way to the county seat, leaving Xia Doudou and Zhao Mei'e orphans and widows.

Mrs. Zhao Mei'e Xia naturally doesn't like it, but Doudou is her treasure, and she will give him anything delicious.

Even, even the school that the poor can't afford to go to, Doudou can go there!

Xia Qiqi didn't understand, obviously Mrs. Xia was partial to Xia Doudou, why did Xia Duofu still slap his sister Duo'er?

Xia Duofu noticed that the way his daughter looked at him was full of strangeness that he couldn't understand.

He opened his mouth and said, "Duo'er, Daddy is sorry for you!" Daddy apologizes to you.

But there are some things that are not ours, we can't grab them, you have to be obedient, listen to your father's words, and wait for your father and mother to earn money, and give it to you...... Buy you something to eat! ”

"Why can't you grab it?" Xia Qiqi met Xia Duofu's gaze and questioned Xia Duofu.
