Next door to Xu's house, Xu Zihao simmered the medicine for the Li family to drink, took out the buns in the bag and handed them to the Li family.

Li Shi was stunned when he saw the bun in Xu Zihao's hand, the family's money was used to buy medicine for herself, how could she have money to buy buns, and how economical Hao Lingzi was, she knew.

"Where did the buns come from?" There was not a trace of blood on Lee's pale face, and even his lips were bitter. She is a person with a hard life, not to mention her own hardship, but also dragged down the child, Hao Yanzi is seeing that she is getting older day by day, and this family is also ruined by her own dilapidated body, which girl is willing to be a daughter-in-law to her family?

"It was given by the Yu family next door, we went to the scene together, and when she came back, she bought it for me." Hao Yanzi didn't hide it, and he couldn't hide it from his mother, although his mother was bedridden all the year round, but her mind was sober.

"This jade family, there is no pillar, orphans and widows, although it is a desert, life is not bad, I think there must be something outstanding, the drought in recent years, although the mother is bedridden, I also know that the life is not so good, the mother also experienced the famine year when she was young, that is also the corpse everywhere, I don't know how many people were starved to death, I am afraid that the situation outside is not better than then, this jade family is indeed capable, not only can survive, but also take root in our village, and the days are still moisturized, son! If it weren't for your mother dragging you down like this, you wouldn't have lived such a hard time, you eat this bun, and your mother won't be hungry. Tears rolled down his cheeks as he spoke.

"Mother, don't be sad, if there is no mother, the son does not know what life is for, if there is no mother, I am a lonely orphan, then it is bitter, there is a mother, the son is happy and happy." Hao Yanzi couldn't help but feel sad when he said it, if he didn't have his mother, he wouldn't have a home.

"Don't cry, mother, you hurry up and eat steamed buns, it's not delicious when it's cold, this is meat filling, this is vegetable filling, I'm young, my body and bones are good, I can eat anything." Hao Yanzi took out a meat bun that was not yet cold and handed it to Li.

Li has been taking medicine all year round, and there is only a bitter taste in his mouth, and when he sees the buns at this time, he can't help but swallow his saliva.

After taking the steamed buns, I remembered that the first steamed bun I ate was bought by his father after the marriage that year, and the taste was really delicious. I didn't think that I would have the opportunity to eat steamed buns in this life, but when I bit into it, my mouth was filled with the fragrance of noodles and meat. Tears couldn't stop rolling down.

Hao Yanzi looked at the appearance of his mother, and couldn't help shedding tears, because he had no ability and couldn't find money, so that his mother could live such a difficult and poor life.

Ruyi ate, handed over the bits and pieces bought in the bazaar to Liu, and prepared to go out with a basket on his back.

Dabao followed out from behind the door.

"Sister, can you take me with you? I want to go hunting wild vegetables with you......" Dabao was afraid that Ruyi would refuse, and his cautious appearance made Ruyi quite moved.

"Not today, it's okay for my sister to take you with me tomorrow, my mother is going to the patriarch's house in the afternoon, you remember to take care of Xiaobao at home." Ruyi turned around and commanded.

It's not early today, and the later it is, the more dangerous it is in the mountains, and she can't take Dabao into the dangerous place.

"Oh, well, I'm at home watching my brother, and my sister is going to go early and come back early." Dabao hid the disappointment in his eyes and nodded in agreement. It wasn't until Ruyi's figure was out of sight that Dabao returned to the house.

Ruyi followed yesterday's footprints and prepared to enter the mountain, but at the entrance, he saw Xu Zihao waiting for him with a backpack.

"Let's go!" Ruyi took the lead, and the two entered the forest one after the other.

Because of yesterday's experience and yesterday's marks, it is not too difficult to walk today.

The original two-hour road took only one and a half hours to arrive.

Standing under the chestnut tree, Ruyi and Xu Zihao were both sweating profusely.

When he looked up and saw the chestnuts all over the tree, Ruyi grinned happily.

"Is this what you say you can eat?" Xu Zihao reached out and picked one off, but was pricked and stabbed.

"Well, yes, this one is called chestnut, haven't you seen it?"

"No, I've never seen it before, it's all thorns, how do you eat it?" Xu Zihao is full of black lines, if Ruyi hadn't walked with him for so long to get this, he would still think that he had been tricked!

"You find a rock and smash it open." Ruyi raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect that the people here didn't know about this thing.

Ruyi put down the basket and climbed the tree.

The chestnuts on this chestnut tree are enough for himself and Hao Yanzi to run three times.

Xu Zihao smashed open the chestnut thorn according to Ruyi's words, and saw two brown fruits side by side inside.

Put one into your mouth, bite into the outer core and see that there is a blue-white flesh inside, a fragrance, coming to your nose.

When you put the flesh in your mouth, it is fragrant, sweet and crispy, and it is very delicious.

In this era, there are no various kinds of fruits, and there are few kinds of bits and pieces to eat, and even if there are some wild fruits, they are sour and astringent.

Ruyi saw the sweet appearance of Hao Yanzi's food, and he had a bottom in his heart, this is raw chestnuts, and the cooked ones are much more delicious than this.

"Let's hurry up and work, it's not early, it's not safe to get late in this mountain." Ruyi pulled the chestnut branch in front of him, broke it with the fruit, and threw it under the tree.

"Okay." Hao Yanzi also hurried up the tree and broke the chestnut branches like Ruyi.

The two of them made a bunch of them after a while, and it is estimated that the two back baskets are just enough to be loaded.

Seeing that it was not early, the two stopped.

Putting the chestnuts on the ground into the back basket, the two of them smiled bitterly as they looked at the bleeding hands that were pricked by the chestnuts.

There are no gloves in this era, it's a pity to have these hands, Ruyi sighed in his heart.

The two walked back with the basket on their backs, and the lonely mountain forest was only the sound of the two walking, and everything was quiet. The sunset in the distance was like blood, and Hao Yanzi's mind flashed through the various legends of Longfei Mountain that he had heard in the village when he was young, and the cold sweat on his brain wiped one handful after another. Looking back at Ruyi, Ruyi's face was as usual, and there was no fear or fear at all.

Hao Yanzi couldn't help but admire a little.

"Don't be afraid, go boldly, fear is just a paper tiger, rest assured, we will be able to get home safely."

Ruyi's words are like a dose of stability, so that Hao Lingzi's wandering heart without conversion will calm down at once.

I put my mind at ease and hurried, but I walked much faster.

The light in the forest was very dark, and Hao Lingzi was afraid that if the sky got darker a little longer, the speed would become slower, and there was no road in this mountain at all, just walking through the mountain along the previous mark.

The two hurried away, and finally walked out of Longfei Mountain at the time of twilight, standing at the foot of the mountain and looking at Longfei Village, where smoke curled up from a farmhouse, and a depression of fields in the twilight was like a patchwork grid, different sizes, and neat and regular. Flocks of birds flew over the village, dogs barked, flocks of children laughed, and adults chatted from afar, echoing through the valley like a chorus, high and low, deep and shallow.
