Chapter 6: The Sister Goes to Ask for a Bowl

The cousin in Maomao's mouth is named Liu Changdi, his father Liu Dianyou and Liu Wu's grandfather Liu Dianwu are brothers, Liu Dianyou only has one son in his life, and Liu Changdi has no children for many years after getting married, and the children of the Liu family, especially the few babies without a father in the third room are not bad.

When Liu Dianyou and Liu Dianwu's elder brothers were alive, Liu Dianyou even had the idea of inheriting Liu Mao to his house to inherit the incense, but he did it because of Liu Dianwu's opposition.

After the death of the two brothers, Zhou brought up the matter again, and the only condition put forward was to ask for ten taels of silver for the succession fee.

Although the inheritance fee is a little expensive, after all, it is the blood of the Liu family, and Liu Changdi really moved his mind and was ready to sell the house and land to pass the Liu Mao.

But after all, Liu is Mao Mao's mother, Liu Changdi is unwilling to do anything to break up, and asked someone to reveal the words to Liu.

Liu's life and death are insubordinate, and they swear that if the old man stays, they will not let him pass on, let alone let her dead husband Liu Changhe become a desperate household, and there will be no incense.

Carrying the two dead people out as a shield, the Zhou family was also helpless, and was annoyed that Liu Changdi had revealed the words to the Liu family in advance, if the household registration was filed first, what was the use of the Liu family spilling again?

The succession was done, and the two families also broke off contact.

Liu had a shadow in his heart, always suspicious, and felt that Liu Changdi and his daughter-in-law He were good to their children.

Fortunately, Liu Changdi just had a child more than a month ago, and although it is a daughter, it is a little comforting.

The north wind was blowing outside, it was very cold, Liu Wu rummaged through the cabinet, found a big jacket that Liu Changhe wore when he was alive, wrapped it tightly around Liu Ya, and said with a slight smile: "Ya'er, I've worked hard for you, my sister has a bad brain, some roads and some people don't know it, you go with your sister." ”

Liu Ya'er nodded again and again: "Sister, you can do whatever you want Ya'er to do." ”

Liu Wu let out a long breath and took Liu Ya'er's hand and walked towards the village.

Liu Ya'er looked suspicious and said, "Sister, aren't we going to buy a bowl?" Why don't you go outside the village and go to the middle of the village? ”

Liu Wu slyly bent the corners of his mouth, rubbed his frozen hands and said, "Ya'er, we don't have a copper plate on us, what can we buy a bowl with?" We don't have an ox cart, how can we go into the county to buy a bowl? ”

Liu Yaer was dumbfounded when asked, what my sister said was right, when did Sanfang have a copper plate of private money? When she was eleven years old, she hadn't even touched the copper plate, but she had only seen Liu Gan exchange the copper plate for a sugar man from a distance.

Even if there is a copper plate, Liuhe Village is an hour and a half away from the county, Uncle Niu's car left early in the morning, and it is already afternoon, walking into the county seat and then returning to the city, it is estimated that it will be in the middle of the night, and if you don't freeze to death, you will be bitten to death by wild beasts.

Liu Ya had no choice but to follow the back of Liu Wu's buttocks, from the east of the village to the west of the village, and from the west of the village to the east of the village. Give a bowl and it's a ......"

After a while, the whole village, whether Liu Wu had been there or not, knew that Liu broke the bowl and Zhou forced the child to pay for the bowl, and Zhou's reputation fell to the bottom again.

When he walked to the door of Zhao Ergang's house, Liu Wu instinctively wanted to go around, but he didn't expect Zhao Ergang to leave the house first, and threw a cloth bag into the small basket of Liu Wu with an expressionless face, turned around and went back to the house, without saying a word.

Liu Wu inexplicably opened the cloth bag, revealing four coarse porcelain bowls, one of which was still a gap.

Liu Wu couldn't help but be stunned, this Zhao family is the two parents with Zhao Ergang's brother and sister, it is estimated that there are only four bowls in total, and all of them were given to Liu Wu.

It is estimated that the whole village knew about Zhou's behavior, Liu Ya was so cold that her teeth trembled, and Liu Ya took Liu Ya'er's hand and came in the direction of the ancestral hall at the entrance of the village.

The door of the ancestral hall was locked, Liu Wu picked up some hay and spread it on the ground, let Liu Ya sit down, took Liu Ya's hand, breathed hot air with his mouth, and said with great guilt: "Ya'er, bear with it for a while, someone will tell Li Zheng in a while, and we can go home." ”

Liu Ya nodded firmly and said, "Ya'er knows." We don't have the money to buy a bowl, we can't go home, Ya'er can stand it, and I'll ask for a bowl tomorrow during the day......."

Liu Fu couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart, the little Liu Ya'er would only listen to her sister stupidly, and she didn't have the slightest suspicion.

And in his arms, he obviously carried ten taels of silver and fifty copper plates from Ma Liu'er, and he could buy eight bowls with a surplus with a fraction.

It's just that this bowl can only be asked for like a beggar, and cannot be bought for silver.

If the bowl is bought with silver, the Zhou family and the other three rooms will definitely be beaten upside down, saying that the three rooms hide private silver, and the future will be even more difficult.

The two sisters were breathing in the cold wind in front of the ancestral hall, and when Liu Wu wondered if their decision was wrong, a person walked in the wind and snow in the distance, carrying a quilt in his hand.

When he got closer, the man didn't speak, but first draped the quilt on the two sisters, and said angrily: "Su'er, let your uncle say what is good about you?" For a few bowls, is it worth freezing to death? Why don't you go to your uncle's house and let your uncle think of a way? ”

Although it was the first time to see Liu Changdi, the tears of the willow catkins had been said sour and uncomfortable.

On the way to ask for bowls in the village, there are at least twenty or thirty families, some of whom are closed-minded, some of whom speak harshly and ugly, some who are sympathetic but unable to do anything, and those who are afraid of offending Zhou's family.

Liu Changdi took Liu Ya'er's hand and said categorically: "Go to your uncle's house first to warm up, Li Lizheng has already gone to your house, and you will be able to have a letter in a while." ”

The two sisters followed Liu Changdi back to Liu's house, pushed open the door, and a burst of warmth came to their faces, and Liu Wu's body instantly warmed a lot.

It's just that because there is a baby at home, the taste is really not good, and there is a smell of urine.

Hearing the sound of pushing the door, He Shi smiled in the back room: "Su'er and Ya'er come into the house and sit, haven't you seen your sister Yue'er yet?" Come and see if your sister looks like you. ”

Turning into the inner room, on the kang in the house, a dry cart made of wooden strips, in which was placed a half-meter-long red sandbag, a small baby was placed on it, thin and yellow, with sparse hair, and a wrinkled face like a walnut beard, I really couldn't see how good it looked.

The little baby stuck out her tongue and pouted her fingers, flattening her mouth to cry.

He sighed, dipped the honey water in the bowl with chopsticks, and dripped a drop on the baby's mouth.

He picked Liu Yue'er up, and said leisurely: "Baby, why are you in such a hurry, my father is back, I'll bring you egg yolk to ......"

Liu Changdi rubbed his hands nervously, and his face was embarrassed: "Yue'er, her mother, our family, our family has no eggs, there is heavy snow today, and the chickens of each family have not laid many eggs." I'm cooking, I'm cooking millet porridge, and tomorrow I'm going to buy two more eggs......"

He sighed, his heart was clear, and he said helplessly: "Millet paste, millet paste, it's just that I was wronged by Yue'er, and I didn't have milk to eat when I was born." It's all because my body is not angry, and I almost spent all the money in the bloody collapse, and I can't afford to buy dairy goats......"
