When Mei Zhijun said this, Mei Yali cast a sympathetic little look at her father.

Can't eat enough, can't wear warm, as soon as school gets out, they have to go up the mountain to rake firewood, no matter whether they have done anything wrong, as long as Zhao Huiying's mood is not smooth, they will be beaten and scolded, this is still the days of "several grades better", so what kind of life did they live before?

And her poor uncle, who died in his teens, her father had told her once in his previous life that the child had fallen to his death in the mountains.

Let's talk about Wang Xiulan, in fact, she had already heard She Yufen talk about the child once, but at this time, She Yufen brought up the old story again, but Wang Xiulan still couldn't help but sigh again.

Although their generation is not rich, as long as they are diligent and willing to work, the jobs they get are still enough to support their families.

Just like their family, although the children can't eat anything good and fine, they still have no problem filling their stomachs.

If She Yufen hadn't talked about it, she really couldn't imagine that there was still a mother in this world who starved her son and could only go all over the mountains to find wild food to eat.

After sighing with emotion, Wang Xiulan explained She Yufen, "It's good to be able to separate, food and everything is a trivial matter." ”

She Yufen nodded, "I think so too." Anyway, as long as Zhijun and I are willing to work, life can always get by. ”

After a pause, she said: "I want to take advantage of the current farm leisure to go out to do some work, and I will go to find my father later, so that he can talk to my third aunt and old aunt at that time." ”

Wang Xiulan felt that there was not much hope, "How can there be any work in these ten winters?" ”

She Yufen shrugged, "If there is one, you have to ask, just in case." Besides, I don't have to rush in Layue, next year will be spring, and after planting, if we can have work, we will also go out to do it. ”

She Fenggang raised his eyes from behind the lenses, "Zhijun can't continue to do the job of accounting in the infrastructure team?" ”

She Yufen nodded, "The house in the township has been built, and the next job is said to be in Baijiadianzi." ”

Baijiadianzi is another township about two hundred miles away from their Heigang Township, and the current situation of the Mei family, Mei Zhijun is indeed not suitable to work so far away.

Not to mention anything else, during the busy farming season, the family cannot do without his strong labor.

"Then you can go to your father's place and ask now, it just so happens that your third aunt and their family Yufeng are also there." She Feng just put down the medical skills in his hand, "Your third aunt and your aunt should not plan to come back until the New Year." ”

The surname of Yufeng in She Fenggang's mouth is Cheng, and he is the cousin of Aunt She Yufen's family, two or three years younger than her.

When She Yufen heard this, she hurriedly drank the brown sugar water in the iron tea jar in a few sips, "Then I'll go over and talk to Yufeng now." ”

Wang Xiulan hurriedly got off the ground one step ahead of her, "I'll help you pick up some eggs and bring them over." ”

- She doesn't mind her daughter going back to her parents' house empty-handed, but She Yufen wants to see her grandparents without bringing anything, but Wang Xiulan doesn't think it's very suitable.

She Yufen hurriedly stretched out her hand and grabbed Wang Xiulan, "No, mother." You got it for me, and my have to be brought back in the end. ”

"Then you'll get it back then." Wang Xiulan still picked up twenty eggs for She Yufen to bring over, "Your grandfather and your grandmother are so old, how can you come to the door empty-handed as a granddaughter." ”

She Yufen couldn't resist her, so she had to take the wicker basket full of eggs.

Wang Xiulan helped her hold Mei Yali, "You look at Mei Di, I'll go over with Yufen." ”

She Fenggang was unwilling, he raised the kang under his feet, and then reached out to take the basket in She Yufen's hand, "Or I'll go with them, and you stay to watch the children." ”

Wang Xiulan saw it, and simply let She Yufen hug She Meidi, "Then let's just go over together." ”

She Fenggang raised his eyebrows, "You old lady, don't you stay at home well, what kind of excitement are you making everywhere?" ”

Wang Xiulan glanced at him, "I'm not worried!" If I don't listen to it myself, I'm always up and down in my heart. ”

She Fenggang snorted and walked out of the door with the basket first.

She Yufen shook her head helplessly, and Wang Xiulan whispered: "Don't pay attention to him, he has been this virtuous all his life." ”

The mother and the two carefully wrapped the children, and then each of them carried one and went to the yard of She Yufen's grandparents next door.

Mei Yali was a little excited.

In her previous life, her grandfather passed away when she was fifteen years old, and because her grandfather and her uncle did not report the funeral to her, she was unable to send the old man on his last journey.

Her grandmother lived longer, but after her grandfather passed away, the old lady basically stayed at her aunts' house, except for the New Year's holidays, she ran to visit, usually she still has little chance to get along with the elderly.

Later, because she was at the southernmost point of the map of China, she was unable to return to her hometown in time to attend her grandmother's funeral.

Not being able to give more care and care to these two respectable and lovely old people has always been one of the things she deeply regrets.

At that time, she was under the fence and couldn't help herself, but in this life, she didn't want to be a left-behind child who was at the mercy of others and had no support.

She wants to have a healthy body, then make a lot of money, and finally use that money to buy a few more high eaves of her own, so that she does not have to fall into the hands of Zhao Huiying in this life, and no longer has to experience what it means to be "under the low eaves, you have to bow your head".

As soon as She Feng pushed the door open, the first thing that caught Mei Yali's eyes was the few sand fruit trees that she missed so much later.

A little further in, an old apricot tree older than She Fenggang's age appeared in Mei Yali's sight.

Mayali's eyes turned red at some point.

In this small, wooded yard, she has too many happy childhood memories.

In her last life, before her grandmother left Heigang Township and went to live at her fourth aunt's house, she spent one or two months in Majia Village every year.

At that time, she was often able to eat all kinds of rare food prepared by her grandmother and great-grandmother for her and her brother.

What fried hairtail, peanuts, dumplings stuffed with white flour and meat, biscuits, cakes, sugar cubes, sand fruits, apricots, betel seeds, mountain cloves, each of them has become the most precious memories that she missed very much later.

As soon as a few people walked to the middle of the courtyard, She Yufen's grandparents took Cheng Yufeng out to greet them.

The three of them all had real surprises and smiles on their faces, and that surprise and smile reminded Mei Yali of the bright smile when Wang Xiulan greeted them before.

It was a heartfelt surprise smile that only those who sincerely welcome you, which made Mei Yali, who was accustomed to seeing the professional smirk of later generations, feel extremely happy at a glance.
