His father only knows how to read the sages, and most of the salutes are all kinds of books, yesterday my mother was busy sorting out for a long time, and this room was only barely able to accommodate people, but at night, the family found that there was no food, and my father went out to beg for food and came back, but no one could cook.

Mama Zhou has always been in charge of things by her mother's side, she has followed her mother for 20 years and has not tossed about cooking, yesterday she groped for a long time, and finally cooked it, but the rice was mushy, and the dishes were difficult to eat.

Sheng Rong had never eaten such an unpalatable thing since he could remember, had never lived in such a dilapidated house, had never seen such a room full of cobwebs, and had never slept in such a muddy bed...... All of this was hard for him to accept.

He quarreled with his father again yesterday, he didn't eat and slept directly, woke up in the morning, but found that he was eating the leftover meals from yesterday, because the food at home was borrowed, and he wanted to save it, so he didn't spill it.

But it provoked public anger and aroused the emotions of everyone in the family.

Mother cried, sitting on the chair with a handkerchief and covering the corners of her eyes, Mama Zhou has been comforting her mother, and her father angrily asked him to face the wall, but there was no room, so he had to take a small bench outside to think.

He was very angry, but he also knew that he was not doing it right, and inadvertently turned around and saw a woman on the ground who seemed to be playing with mud looking at him, he felt a little embarrassed, don't open his eyes to look at the woman, he only felt that he was full of grievances, uncomfortable and embarrassed, just when he was out of his mind, he saw a fat and fat insect crawling over, at that moment, he really felt like he was going crazy!

Centipede! There are actually centipedes?!

Now, eating fragrant meat, drinking this ordinary but delicious white porridge, eating this white steamed bun, his stomach is warm, and his heart is getting warmer and warmer.

Jiang Yuanyuan poured a glass of water and put it in Sheng Rong's hand, Sheng Rong raised his head and took a look, he didn't care if it was dirty or not, he drank it in one gulp, and there were some tears in his eyes.

"You... Don't get excited......" Jiang Yuanyuan said, pouring another glass of water, "Eat slowly." ”

Hearing this, Sheng Rong was a little embarrassed, he didn't say anything, his eyelids raised, but he silently slowed down the speed at which he ate.

"Yuanyuan, I'm back!!" Outside the door, Jiang Xuan's loud voice came, "I'm dying of thirst, Yuanyuan, come and see, we caught a big fish." ”

"Brother, I'm here." Jiang Yuanyuan shouted, Sheng Rong silently put down his bowl when he heard the voice, he picked up the water on the side and drank it, but he didn't swallow it, only silently rolled it in his mouth, he looked around, I don't know what he was looking for, Jiang Yuanyuan also looked at it, I didn't understand what Sheng Rong wanted to do, and then, she saw Sheng Rong hesitantly spit the water in his mouth into the porridge that he had drunk half of it and hadn't finished drinking.

“……”

"Are you full?" Jiang Yuanyuan felt that her smile was a little stiff.

"It's almost, you can't eat too much." Sheng Rong nodded, took out his handkerchief from his sleeve and covered his mouth to wipe the corners of his mouth clean.

"Whew~" exhaled, Jiang Yuanyuan felt that she couldn't help but want to yell at the person in front of her who didn't seem to understand anything, "You can't eat so much, you don't need to take the second bowl of porridge, and you only eat two bites of this steamed bun, which is a waste." ”

Sheng Rong looked at the rest of his food, not very concerned, "I've always been like this before, just throw these out." ”

"You ......" Jiang Yuanyuan felt that her hands were a little itchy, looking at Sheng Rong's indifferent expression, she comforted herself, after all, this person is indeed the eldest young master, although this person has just seen her ugly, but after all, he helped her up, although she begged him to help him to help her up.

What to do, the more I think about it, the more angry I become.

Forcing herself to stand up calmly, Jiang Yuanyuan tried to reason.

"But you're not what you used to be, aren't you? It doesn't matter if you can throw it away or waste it in your own home, but now, this is my home, and what you eat is my family's steamed buns, maybe it's just a bowl of porridge for you, but what I see is that countless bowls of porridge have been spilled, and you have to eat as much as you want, and you have to eat it if you can't finish it, isn't this what all people should basically do? ”

Sheng Rong looked at Jiang Yuanyuan, he blinked, took a big bite of the steamed bun, and almost devoured it, he dripped a tear on the steamed bun, at this moment, he suddenly realized that this is really, not before.

Jiang Yuanyuan took the porridge to the backyard and splashed it, and when she came back, the steamed buns had already been eaten, Sheng Rong smiled at her a little shyly, and Jiang Yuanyuan saw some apologies from this.

He's not an unreasonable person either!

Jiang Yuanyuan thought.

Sheng Rong followed Jiang Yuanyuan to the yard and saw two people with muddy feet knocking fish in the yard.

There were three big fish strung together on the ground, the largest fish was almost a foot and a half, flicking its tail frantically on the ground, Jiang Xuan was holding the shovel in his hand to hit the fish head, and the other two were no longer moving, and it seemed that they had been knocked unconscious.

"Such a big fish!" Jiang Yuanyuan said in surprise, she was afraid of getting muddy, so she didn't take a closer look, these black fish were fat and big, and they looked delicious.

"Hehe, there are no big fish in the wild pond we usually go to, they are all small fish, we will go to other places to try our luck, and we really found it, in a muddy field, there are many small ponds, not very big, they are all covered with aquatic plants, there are all fish, in patches, any catch is such a big fish." Jiang Xuan said proudly, he shook his hand and mouthed at Jiang Yuanyuan, "Is he?" ”

"He moved from next door, his name is Sheng Rong! Sheng Rong, this is my brother, called Jiang Xuan! The name next to him is Chen Mofan, who is my brother's friend and my brother! ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Yuanyuan complained a little about Jiang Xuan.

"It's not all you, I can't get up if I have to get up at the door of my room." Thinking of this, Jiang Yuanyuan blushed angrily, and wanted to complain a few more words, but she didn't want to tell the second person about her embarrassment just now, "He helped me up, he didn't eat, so I brought it back to give him something to eat." ”

"Hey, thank you, brother!" Jiang Xuan scratched his nose, the mud on his hands touched his nose, and he looked stupid, "Since we will all be neighbors in the future, let's stay at our house for dinner today, there is just a big fish, there must be a lot of goods in the stomach, look at this fish is fat and big, the soup boiled out must be very fresh." ”

"Good!" Sheng Rong nodded, without hesitation at all, the fish had a very heavy fishy smell, and he subconsciously took two steps back, "Thank you." ”

"Why don't you leave me at your house for dinner?" Chen Mofan leaned into Jiang Xuan's ear and said leisurely, "I will also accompany you to catch fish!" ”

"You're kind if you want to eat!" Jiang Xuan said in a loud voice, "Come and eat, my father and mother estimate that they will not be able to come back until the evening." Come to eat at noon, and it's more lively. ”

"Brother Mo Fan, call Chen Xuan to eat too, such a big fish, a few of us will definitely not be able to handle it." Jiang Yuanyuan said, she came to the courtyard and moved the small stool here to Sheng Rong's side, "Sit here and take a look." I'll go get some food in the back. ”

"Okay, I'll go and call Xiao Xuan after I've dealt with this fish." Chen Mofan said, he threw the fish into the basin, and watched Jiang Xuan pour the well water into it, he rinsed the mud on his hands and feet with this water, "I see that there are so many fish in the wild pond, or tomorrow I will call a few people, let's go and catch some fish together, and after pickling, there will be some food during the Chinese New Year." ”

"Yes, it saves a lot of money. But don't call them Chen Moyang, they hate them very much. Jiang Xuan said excitedly, but he seemed to think of something again, and pouted unhappily.

Chen Moyang is Chen Mofan's cousin, he is very annoying, and he has been saying bad things about his sister behind his back recently, and Jiang Xuan doesn't like him very much.

"Okay, I'll call Huizi and Huazi a few of them." Chen Mofan smiled and said, "I'll go get a knife and a basin." ”

"Sheng Rong, are you going to catch fish with us tomorrow, there are a lot of fish there, and you can also pickle them and keep them for the New Year." Jiang Xuan turned his head and asked.

Sheng Rong pursed his lips and said with some hesitation: "I...... Won't catch fish. ”

"It's okay, it's easy to catch fish, I'll teach you. And tomorrow it's scratching with a net, it's really super easy! Jiang Xuan patted his chest and promised.

Sheng Rong licked his lips, he wanted to say that not only did he not know how to catch fish, but he also couldn't handle fish, let alone pickle fish, and no one in his family would, but after a few words, he still swallowed back, and he nodded.

"Okay."

"It's very simple to catch fish, but I look at your appearance, it should be from the county, from the city, you people will not be normal, after all, you have not been in contact, but in places like ours, we have grown up in mud, eating mud, and we have been very good at these since we were children, this is actually very simple, you will understand it when you look at it tomorrow."

Jiang Xuan shook the water in his hand and found two benches to put them, Chen Mofan also came out of the room, holding a basin in his hand and carrying a bucket, he put the basin to the ground, and there were two knives in the bucket.

"Be careful, don't cut your hands." Chen Mofan said, "Last time, you made a super big opening. ”

"Yes, yes." Jiang Xuan waved his hand and gestured with the knife, "Sheng Rong, do you want to come and see, looking at the bulging belly, there must be a lot of goods." You sit down and take a look. ”

Sheng Rong was a little curious, he wanted to know what these "goods" were, hesitated, or moved a small bench forward, sat down and looked, the fish was full of scales that made him a little disgusted.

Jiang Xuan scraped the fish scales neatly after deducting the gills, the fish scales flew around, and some flew to Sheng Rong's feet, Sheng Rong subconsciously retracted his feet, and some didn't want to look at it anymore.

After the fish scales were scraped clean, the mucus on the fish came out, there was water in the bucket, Jiang Xuan washed the fish, almost didn't catch the slippery fish, scraped the fish scales is disemboweled, and stroked twice on the soft fish belly, and with a knife, all the "goods" in the fish belly gushed out.

Fish bubbles, fish intestines, fish eggs... All of them flowed into the basin, Jiang Xuan put his hand into the belly of the fish and took it out, put the hollowed fish on the ground, and he began to clean up the "goods" in the belly of the fish.

"Hey, and the intestines!" Jiang Xuan said excitedly.

Sheng Rong was stunned when he saw these "goods", he came to his senses, looked at the blood in Jiang Xuan's hand and the goods he was cleaning up, smelling the fishy smell of the fish, he began to feel a little sick to his stomach, and his brows wrinkled subconsciously.

Sheng Rong stood up suddenly.

Sheng Rong stood up suddenly.

"I... Go back and drink water. Sheng Rong said with a white face, and left immediately after finishing speaking, Jiang Xuan didn't react to what happened, he nodded stunned, Chen Mofan saw Sheng Rong's frowning brows and pale face, but he didn't say anything, and continued to do what he was doing.

Jiang Yuanyuan picked the vegetables and came back to find that the two of them didn't say anything in the yard, she walked behind Jiang Xuan without saying a word and put the dishes aside.

"Wow, what are you doing, rolling around in the ground twice." Jiang Xuan looked at Jiang Yuanyuan's face full of mud and was startled, "Or who bullied you, who did you say bullied you, I'll help you beat him!" ”

"No......" Jiang Yuanyuan whispered, she rubbed her fingers, "I fell when I didn't stand while picking vegetables." ”

"You...... Be careful. Jiang Xuan said, "You didn't fall and hurt anything, did you?" ”

"It's fine, a little hurt." Jiang Yuanyuan said.

Jiang Xuan didn't speak, he lowered his head and continued to deal with the contents of the fish's stomach, Jiang Yuanyuan washed her face with water on the side, and after washing, she bent down to pick up the crutches, and almost fell down again, but fortunately Jiang Xuan helped her.

After standing up straight, she was a little dizzy, Jiang Yuanyuan walked into the house with a cane, and only the sound of the cane hitting the ground in her hand was heard in the yard.

"Xuanzi ......" Chen Mofan put down the knife in his hand, Jiang Xuan lowered his head and said nothing, but he felt the depression coming from Jiang Xuan's body.

"I shouldn't have let her go alone." Jiang Xuan suddenly said, "I obviously know that the mountain is very dangerous, but I think it doesn't matter if there are five people, if I don't be lazy, I will have nothing to do with her......"

"Xuanzi, it's not your fault." Chen Mofan said.

"I panicked as soon as she left that day, I wanted to stop her, but I didn't want to go out, I thought it was just going to rain and it was a little stuffy, and if I did, if I did something, she wouldn't have an accident...... It's all my fault. ”

“……”

Jiang Yuanyuan returned to the room lonely, her legs hurt a little today, and it hurt a little last night, maybe the pain made people a little weak, so she bent down when she picked vegetables today, but then she finally got up, and she fell down before she could stand firmly......

She can't take care of herself, and it's not convenient to go to the toilet, so she seems to be unable to do anything by herself......

Jiang Yuanyuan closed her eyes passively.
