Wang Xiao grew up watching his mother being beaten, and he was once angry and wanted to protect his mother.

But he would always be pushed away by his mother, saying that it was his father and that he should not be disrespectful to him.

Over time, Wang Xiao became numb, and could only run up the mountain to chop firewood and learn to hunt when his father beat his mother, so as not to be too sad.

Now that his father is dead, Wang Xiao secretly feels that this is not a good thing.

Because in addition to his mother, Wang Dazhi didn't even want to let go of their children, and I heard that on the night of Wang Dazhi's death, he and the secret prostitute wanted to sell them all to the next person.

Wang Xiao hated Wang Dazhi to death in his heart.

Wu Hui didn't know that Wang Xiao's filial piety was only reflected in his mother.

Because he felt that his mother was very pitiful when he was a child, he was beaten by his father all the time, and he didn't have a good life for a day.

Now that his father is dead, he must treat his mother well.

How did Liu Wan know that Wang Xiao had so many thoughts in her heart, she turned her head and said to the two little ones:

"Xiaoli, Xiaolian, the road above is not easy to walk, you two will collect firewood at the bottom of the mountain, pick some wild vegetables, and wait for your mother and your eldest brother to come back."

"Okay."

The two little ones should come down, and sure enough, they obediently picked wild vegetables and collected firewood nearby.

Liu Wan and Wang Xiao continued to climb the mountain.

Today's weather is bright, Liu Wan climbed the mountain and couldn't help sweating, seeing that her son was also sweating, Liu Wan took off the sweat towel on her waist, handed it to Wang Xiao and said:

"Xiao'er, wipe your sweat and be careful not to catch a cold."

In this kind of weather, the most lethal thing is that the body is hot, the pores are opened, and when the sweat is cold, the mountain wind blows, and the cool air enters the body, and the wind will catch a cold.

Liu Wan studied Chinese medicine, how could she not know this truth?

Wang Xiao obediently took the sweat towel and wiped off the sweat.

Liu Wan looked at this good son and felt that the children of the Wang family were quite obedient, and they did not follow Wang Dazhi because he took the wrong path, which was very comforting.

"Mother, here, this is our family's tea garden, when the family was separated, no one wanted it, so it was distributed to our family, you see, there are still a lot of camellia seeds on the ground.

It stands to reason that October is the best time for the harvest, and no one in our family will come to harvest it, so let's see how much we can pick up. ”

Wang Xiao said, took off the back basket on his body, put it on the ground, and began to pick up the camellia seeds on the ground.

He picked up those camellia seeds that were not rotten, and some of the camellia seeds that had fallen on the ground for a long time had sprouted.

Liu Wan learned from her son's practice and picked up the camellia seeds.

Because at this time, she suddenly heard a prompt from the system, and "Ding" released a side quest.

Liu Wan roughly figured out that when the system releases a task, if it is not completed, it will not send a new task.

This side quest is to squeeze camellia oil, and the tag is an associated task for making bean paste.

Also, you can't make bean paste without oil.

Side quests are also a survival point.

Liu Wan has experience this time, and knows that the system is not too outrageous, although she has to deduct a survival point, but the system will provide her with a free place to practice.

If you calculate the cost, the system is still at a loss, because there will be enough raw materials for practicing in the practice place, and the raw materials consumed by Liu Wan when practicing must be worth the price.

Liu Wan accepted the task, and then entered the free practice space.

She practiced dozens of times in the dark in the space, and mastered the steps and techniques of squeezing camellia oil.

When she withdrew from the practice space, Wang Xiao, who was picking up camellia seeds on the side, did not notice anything unusual at all.

The two of them either picked up the camellia seeds on the ground, or directly pulled the camellia seeds that had dried on the tree from the tea tree, and harvested a lot.

The things on the mountain are wild and wild, and there is no fence, but each family remembers what the things look like.

Unless there are scoundrels in the village, no one will steal what grows on other people's mountains.

Of course, the scoundrel will not climb up the mountain to steal it for a few camellia seeds.

So this piece of camellia seeds is still good, but many of them fell to the ground and sprouted or rotten, Liu Wan looked at it and said with pity:

"Xiao'er, let's go up the mountain again tomorrow and pick all the camellia seeds home, if these can produce oil, the family will not have to worry about eating oil for more than half a year."

"Mother, do you know how to squeeze camellia oil? Originally, I wanted to carry a basket of camellia oil seeds to pay the oil mill, and ask them to help squeeze some, enough to make bean paste paste, mainly because no matter how much money there is, there is no silver to pay for the work. ”

Listening to Wang Xiao's tone, knowing that oil extraction is also a technical job, not ordinary people can.

Liu Wan thought for a while, nodded and said, "When I was at my mother's house, I saw someone squeezing it, but he didn't keep it secret, so I watched the whole process and still remember it." ”

After Liu Wan recalled the background of her original mother's family at this time, she was very surprised.

How did the original owner play a good card to a sparse sparse appearance......

"Mother, are you talking about your grandfather's house? I've never heard you mention where your grandfather's house is. Are their grandparents okay? ”

Wang Xiao felt that Liu Wan had been really talkative lately, and even this topic was no longer taboo, so he had the courage to ask.

When he was a child, he asked Liu Wan this question once, clamoring to go to his grandparents' house.

Because the children in the village can always get some benefits when they go to their grandparents' house, such as a piece of maltose, two hot eggs, etc., and they will inevitably show off when they return to the village.

But Wang Xiao had never seen his maternal grandparents, and Liu Wan had never mentioned it, so he was envious, so he went home to ask Liu Wan.

At that time, Liu Wan directly gave him a big mouth, which slapped him in the dark, and Liu Wan also said viciously that he was not allowed to mention this matter in the future.

Since then, Wang Xiao has kept his mouth shut, and has never asked Liu Wan about her mother's family again, and today is the second time he has asked about this topic.

But as soon as these words came out, Wang Xiao was still a little stunned in his heart, worried that she would slap her, he looked at Liu Wan's hand, ready to dodge at any time.

Unexpectedly, Liu Wan not only didn't get angry, but also thought thoughtfully, and said:

"Now is not the time to tell you, but the next day I will have a coil, and I will take you back to visit them."

When Wang Xiao heard this, he became interested.

My mother would say that, could it be that my grandfather's family had some unusual background?

Liu Wan lowered her head to pick up camellia seeds, didn't see the yearning expression on Wang Xiao's face, and continued in her mouth:

"It just so happens that your third brother has learned the carpenter's trade, can he help us make an oil press?"

"The third brother is afraid that he won't be able to fight, in fact, he didn't learn anything from Uncle Wang, so he just served tea and poured water for Uncle Wang.

Uncle Wang is a chicken thief, and he won't easily teach his skills to outsiders, I think he accepts apprentices, just to accept people to give him free chores. ”

Wang Xiao saw that his mother was so good at talking, and he told the truth for the first time.

Liu Wan frowned slightly and said:

"Isn't it a waste of time for Wang Jing to be there?"
