The rivers of the three provinces in the south of the Yangtze River are vertical and horizontal, the rivers are staggered, and the villages are scattered like pearls, and Huashi County is one of them. There is a street in the county called Sweet Water Well, which is full of small and medium-sized shops, all of which are engaged in the business of the neighbors, and they live a quiet life that is less than the upper and more than the lower. A little near the end of a grocery store hangs a three-character plaque of Fengliu Ji, and the signboard exudes a moist and heavy luster of the years, which makes people who buy things feel steady.

Five-year-old willow branch knelt on a high stool, looked at her father's plan, and followed the mantra: "One up, two up, two up----, two down, five to four---" Her hands were white and chubby, and her black hair was tied in two small buns, tied with a big red hair rope, and at the end were two red pompoms; His skin was white, his big eyes were flickering, and he looked very pleasing.

"Okay, I've memorized all the formulas, how can my father reward me?" Liu Zhi raised his hand and cheered, and looked at Daddy who had already prepared to take out a mulberry paper bag.

Liu Zhi's eyes became more and more shining: "Daddy, is it honey bean cake?" I can smell it all. ”

Liu Wang smiled and touched his daughter's head: "It's the honey bean crisp sent by your Uncle Feng, you are allowed to eat a piece." ”

Liu Zhi immediately coquettish: "Dad, two pieces, I have all memorized them." ”

"Zhi'er, there are four pieces in total, if you eat two, you can count how many people in the family and who doesn't eat them."

Listening to Daddy's words, Liu Zhi folded his chubby hand and counted it: "Daddy, Mother, myself, ah, and one is Mama Li." ”

She hung her head and said, "Okay, just eat a piece." The next time I see Jiaojiao, I want her to tell Uncle Feng and give me one more piece in the future. ”

When the father and daughter were talking and laughing, there was a "clang" outside the door, and Liu Zhi was so frightened that the cake in her hand almost fell to the ground, and she turned her head to look, only to see a mud monkey-like boy rolling into the door, stammering and calling "Uncle--- uncle". This boy of about seven or eight years old was dressed very inappropriately, sloppy, and his crotch was about to fall to the ground, obviously because the old clothes of the elder brother in the family did not fit very well.

His hair was shaved into the shape of a peach's heart on the top of his head, and when he saw the honey bean crisp in Liu Zhi's hand, an inch-long piece of saliva fell on the placket of his clothes. I hate it.,It's the cow cousin of the uncle's family in Aoyagi Village.。 Liu Zhi turned his head in disgust, but saw his father with a surprised and happy face, and hurriedly came out of the counter: "Fu Niu'er, how did you come, your father brought you here?" ”

"Uncle--- Uncle --- eat--- Fu Niu'er only had food in his eyes, he was already stammering, and a lot of saliva was thrown on Liu Wang's face.

Liu Zhi looked at Cousin Niu's eyes and had been staring at his hand since the door, he had already prepared, and when Daddy turned around and wanted to get him honey cakes, she had already held the whole paper bag in her arms: "Don't give it, it's Daddy, Mother and Mother Li's, and he won't eat it." ”

"Give Mama Li's share to my brother first, Mama Li is a subordinate."

"No, Mama Li is good to me, I want to keep it for Mama Li."

"Good branches, if your father doesn't eat it, give your father's share to my brother."

"Eat, I want to eat."

Liu Wang coaxed his daughter. Fu Niu'er was already lying on the ground kicking his legs and crying, the store was not lively for a while, and some customers who came to buy things quietly turned around when they saw this posture.

"I won't give it! Daddy, if you don't eat it, it should be given to me. "Liu Zhi hates his uncle's family, every time he comes to his house, he doesn't have a good word in his mouth, he always picks himself with slanted eyes, saying that his father and mother raise a girl, and he says that he is a money-loser in front of himself, and boasts of his three sons, hum!

Every time my uncle and aunt come to the house to eat and drink, I have to collect it into a big package before leaving, and the last time Cousin Niu didn't say a word, he took away the cloth tiger that Li's mother tied for herself, causing her to cry. The willow branch people are small, and her father favors Cousin Niu, but she doesn't follow, Fu Niu'er has already torn her throat and shouted desperately: "My --- this, the things in this shop, --- are all mine--- my mother said--- woo woo--- you eat my --- is my ----"

Hearing this, Liu Zhi's big eyes became more and more murderous, and he looked at his father's face only slightly red, but he was not very angry. Li's mother said that her uncle's family was talking bastards, and she knew that these words were wrong when she was young, but her father always didn't care, and always said that her uncle's family didn't mean it, but that the countrymen were stupid and couldn't speak. Hmph, in fact, Daddy is eccentric, and this honey bean crisp can't be given. Liu Zhi pursed his lips in disgust, and said that it was disgusting to say that he was so skinny and dirty to be an elder brother.

Liu Zhi was thinking about it, Liu Wang bent down and coaxed her to get along with her cousin, only to feel a gust of wind rushing towards her, she was taken aback, it turned out to be Fu Niu'er rolling on the ground and seeing that no one came to pull him up, he simply got up and grabbed the paper bag in her hand. "If you're bad, you won't give it to you!" Where is there such an elder brother!

The two children were pulling and the paper bag broke, and the honey pea cake rolled to the ground. Liu Zhi was very angry and grabbed Fu Niu'er: "You compensate me, you compensate me for honey bean cake." ”

"You, your things, all of them are mine, you, you, you are a girl, what is there to eat there? No, I'm not ashamed. Fu Niu'er stammered naturally, but it didn't prevent him from making Liu Zhi so angry that he was about to smoke.

The character of her own daughter has always refused to admit defeat, and she also compares and fights with male babies. Seeing that the trouble was not good, Liu Wang hurriedly inserted himself between the two children, coaxing and scolding, and finally separated them.

Liu Zhi was sullen and was dragged by his father to the backyard house, while from time to time he rolled his eyes to the cow cousin who was pulled by his father's other hand, he was snorting and eating honey bean crisp, and muttering "mine", "delicious", "sell" and so on.

Before the willow branch man entered the hall, he heard a burst of high-pitched voices crackling like heavy rain and smashing on him, "Cow, ah, my heart and liver, who has done this to you." Willow Branch's small round face had been solemnly tense as if it had taken bitter medicine, and now it was even more wrinkled. She saw a yellow thin woman with a sharp face jumping up in the hall, and even knocked over the teacup on the table, this is Uncle Zhang, although she doesn't like Uncle Niang, but she still obediently greets: "Uncle Niang."

Zhang's ignored her, the little girl's family was not a thing, she only slapped her hands on her thighs, pulled her throat and cried and shouted: "Uncle, this is yours." Fu Niu'er is the grandson of your Liu family, and I want to give you the inheritance of the Liu family, you see what it looks like to be bad! Do you dare to beat your brother? Why don't you protect your nephew and your dead father and mother from heaven watching you treat their grandchildren like this. ”

Here we go again, here we go again. Liu Zhi pouted in her heart, her father was still holding her hand, or she would have run away a long time ago, so she didn't bother to listen to the gossip of her uncle. She looked at Cousin Niu, she didn't do anything to him, he was still a boy, although his clothes were half torn off by his own clothes, but he was not good before. Cousin Niu didn't cry anymore, he was concentrating on licking the puff pastry scum in his palm, this brother is actually still easy to coax, and he can eat it.
