Chapter 13 Digging for Wild Vegetables
Wang Xiuying is absolutely powerful in the Xiao family, although Zhou Juan is indignant, she is too frightened to say anything, and even Chen Zhaodi, who is sitting opposite her, buries her head lower, for fear that her mother-in-law will be unhappy and make trouble for herself.
Because of her, Song Enli felt quite embarrassed, didn't dare to speak again, and only buried herself in eating dumplings, but at lunchtime, she finally got to know the rest of the Xiao family.
The man who sat on the kang and didn't say anything from beginning to end was Xiao Heping's father, Xiao Tiezhu, who was very honest and honest, and had no other thoughts except to work in the field and eat well, so Wang Xiuying had the final say in all the big and small things in the family.
The four brothers of the Xiao family have a total of eight children, the eldest Xiao Jianguo has two sons and a daughter, namely twelve-year-old Xiao Xiaoshu and eight-year-old Xiao Xiaosong, and an eleven-year-old daughter;
The second Xiao Jianjun has no son and has four daughters, two Ya, three Ya, four Ya and five Ya, the eldest is ten years old, and the youngest is only two years old.
The third Xiao Jianye has one Xiao Xiaoshui; As for Xiao Heping, he is still single.
Twenty-five years old, not to mention in this era, even in the modern era after a few decades, anxious parents have also begun to arrange blind dates for their children openly and secretly, no wonder Wang Xiuying is in a hurry.
Song Enli pondered, when he became acquainted here in the future, he would have to help find a good daughter-in-law for Xiao Heping, so that Wang Xiuying could feel at ease.
"Little aunt, I'll take you to the river to fish later, and let the milk cook the fish for you at night." After Xiao Xiaozhuan finished eating the dumplings, he leaned on the edge of the kang with two big round eyes and looked at Song Enli.
The people in the village said that his fourth uncle couldn't marry a daughter-in-law, and last night he heard his mother tell his father that if the little aunt left, the fourth uncle really couldn't marry a daughter-in-law, Xiao Xiaoshuan admired his big hero fourth uncle the most, so he felt that he had to help the fourth uncle leave the little aunt, and he wanted to share the most fun and delicious food with the little aunt, so that the little aunt would not leave.
A child's mind is simple, but adults don't know what he thinks.
Wang Xiuying's brain hurts when she hears the river now, and she opposes it at the moment, "Don't go, your fourth aunt almost lost her life in the river yesterday, and you are still in a hurry to suffer?" ”
"Auntie, then I'll go digging wild vegetables with Xiao Shuan." Song Enli asked Xiao Xiaoshui, "Shall we go digging wild vegetables together?" ”
Early spring is the best time to pick wild vegetables, and she wants to see if she can find an opportunity to bring back the living creatures in the space.
Wang Xiuying was worried about Song Enli's foot injury, but when she insisted, she didn't stop her, this girl could take the initiative to integrate into their rural life, she was too late to be happy, she only told her to be careful, she didn't really dig any wild vegetables, she was right to play.
After lunch, Song Enli took a rattan basket and led Xiao Xiaoshuan and set off, Xiao Xiaoshu and Xiao Xiaosong would rather play than dig wild vegetables, and a few girls in the second room were afraid of life, so only the two of them were left.
At first, Song Enli thought very well, but when she arrived at the foot of the back mountain where people in the village often dig wild vegetables, she found that there were still wild vegetables waiting for her to dig, and there were a few weeds left.
In the first two years of the famine, when the famine was severe, even the bark and grass roots were picked up and eaten, and now the trunks of the trees on the hill were still white, and they did not have time to grow completely.
Song Enli took advantage of Xiao Xiaoshuo's climb tree to dig out bird eggs, sat on a big stone to remove the bandages wrapped around his feet, and checked the wounds on the soles of his feet.
When she saw the smooth and clean soles of her feet, even if she already had a guess in her heart, she couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
There are no wounds, no wounds, as if they were never wounded!
