After breakfast, Chen Xi began to chop firewood.

Su Cheng followed and asked, "What's your name?" I'm going to have to call you somewhere in the future, right? ”

"Chen Xi."

Chen Si? Su Cheng would be mistaken, and thought that he had chosen such a name because of the fourth line in his family.

Su Cheng: "My name is ......"

"Cheng Niang. I know. ”

Su Cheng was stunned, his voice was naturally low and full of strength. When she called her slowly, she actually felt that her name was so good.

In the next moment, the strong man who called her name in a nice voice split the wood as thick as Su Cheng's thigh with an axe.

Looking at the firewood that instantly turned into two halves, Su Cheng's back trembled, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

It's so powerful......

This man punches down, and she should die.

The skull will be shattered.

Looking down at his arm, which was not as thick as firewood, Su Cheng immediately said, "Chen, Chen Si have more life, I'll go pour you a bowl of water, fourth brother!" ”

He's the big brother now!

Accumulate virtue on the lips, so that the man will not break her braincase!

Su Cheng poured good water and brought it to the man flatteringly.

Chen Xi looked at the two big sips and drank the water.

Cool water poured down his throat, and the man's bulging Adam's apple rolled up and down.

Su Cheng stood close, close enough to see the veins erupting from his neck.

One thing to say, her fourth brother is really MAN!

Seeing that Su Cheng was still wearing the clothes he had when he fell into the water yesterday, Chen Xi said, "There are clean clothes in the house, take one and change it yourself." ”

He remembered that when Cheng Niang jumped into the river, there was nothing around him.

The Wang family has always said that she is Kefu, and it is estimated that they didn't give her any luggage and clothes when they kicked her out.

Yes...... Cheng Niang should be very poor!

Su Cheng was happy in his heart, and the corners of his eyes were crooked. Sure enough, there is still a good thing about a sweet mouth, and there is a change of clothes!

She smiled, and there seemed to be a light in her eyes.

Chen Ci was stunned, and his smile was quite good-looking.

Su Cheng ran into the house in a hurry, and as soon as Chen Yuanren wanted to follow, he was grabbed by Chen Ci's clothes, "What are you going to do?" ”

"I'll take a look."

"Nope."

Chen Xi: "From now on, she will be your mother, and you must respect your mother." ”

Su Cheng quickly changed his clothes and walked out of the house.

It's just that the fourth brother's clothes are obviously too big for her to wear, and the sleeves and trouser legs are a little longer. The wide coarse cloth shirt draped over her like a lantern bag.

Su Cheng rolled up his sleeves to help clean up the dishes and chopsticks, but this action instantly attracted Chen Xi.

Her arms were thin, but long bruises were faintly visible under the sleeves.

It's like you've been beaten.

As soon as the axe fell on the stake, Chen Xi strode up to her and pulled her arm to see that it was really a rattan wound.

"How?"

Su Cheng was stunned for a moment, and tentatively pulled back his hand, "When I was in the Wang family before, I was beaten by Aunt Wang." ”

Chen Ci's eyes sank, and she directly lifted her sleeves above her arms.

Unsurprisingly, not only her forearms, but her entire arm was covered in mottled scars.

Some of those marks were blue and some were purple, and they looked so hideous when they fell on her slender arms.

Su Cheng showed a little embarrassment on his face, and hurriedly took his hand back.

Aunt Wang was sure that she had killed her son, and this injury was already light. When she woke up, she was secretly glad that she had not been buried.

Chen Ci's eyebrows twitched, and he didn't know what he was thinking at that moment.

"I'll go up the mountain and won't come back at noon, you remember to cook something for Yuanren to eat." After saying that, he put the basket on his back and left the house.

Su Cheng was stunned, didn't he still have to chop wood, why did he suddenly change his mind and go up the mountain?

But the man walked fast, and he had already walked away before Su Cheng could ask.

There were two big eyes left in the courtyard, and Chen Yuanren was the first time he really had a mother when he was so big.

His blinking eyes still showed a bit of life in his eyes when he looked at Su Cheng.

"You, do you eat the fruit?"

Su Cheng was stunned: "Huh? ”

The little sesame ball ran into the house and pulled out a bag of things from under the dilapidated cabinet.

Chen Yuanren wiped his hands and cherished the top layer of oiled paper.

Su Cheng looked at it carefully for a while, and then he recognized that a few pieces wrapped in the oil paper were blackened dried plums.

The little sesame ball said proudly: "Daddy specially bought it on my birthday, and I will share it with you." ”

Su Cheng was silent, she could eat this kind of thing everywhere before, where would she feel precious. But for Chen Yuanren, this is a treasure that can only be eaten on his birthday.

Su Cheng picked up the smallest piece of Li Gan from the oil paper and tasted it, "It's very sweet." ”

Chen Yuanren laughed suddenly, and his little face was a little cute.

Chen Yuanren: "In the future, I will share a little of what I have to eat." ”

Taking advantage of Chen Ci's absence, Su Cheng cleaned the house, and she did all the work she could see.

At noon, the little sesame ball was hungry and clamoring to eat. She went to the kitchen again.

But there was no food left at home, and there was still a jar of lard and half a jar of flour in the corner.

Su Cheng could only make noodles on the spot and make clear soup noodles for Chen Yuanren to eat.

When she opened the cabinet and took her wrist to serve noodles, she found that the bowls at home were all notched.

Su Cheng looked back at the small sesame ball behind him and asked, "Don't you have a good bowl at home?" ”

Chen Yuanren shook his head, "It's all here." ”

Su Cheng's eyelids jumped, it turned out that the Chen family was really poor.

With Chen Xi's conditions, it's strange that Chen Yuanren doesn't grow into a small sesame ball!

Dishes and chopsticks are all small problems, and the important thing is that there is no food at home.

Although this meal can be dealt with, children are growing up, and they can't eat clear soup noodles every day in the future.

I can't add food today, and I have to find a way to get some food supplements for Chen Yuanren when I have the opportunity to do so.

In the evening, Chen Xi returned to Qingyuan Village with a full medicine basket on his back.

Zhao Shengcai from the same village happened to meet him, and greeted: "Lao Chen, I didn't go to the ground today, did you go up the mountain to collect medicine?" ”

Chen Ci turned his head to look at him, only nodded lightly at him, and continued to walk home.

Zhao Shengcai pursed his lips, a little unhappy that he was disappointed.

Chen Ci is good at everything, but he doesn't like to interact with people. There is no enthusiasm at all for the croppers like them.

Although Chen Ci also works in the field every day, from daytime to sunset, more often Zhao Shengcai still feels that Chen Ci has a strength that does not belong to the croppers.

In the words of a reader?

Yes, temperament!

He had been to the recruitment point before, and he had seen a lot of people in the barracks, and he felt that Chen Ci had the strength of a fierce general in the barracks, and he even walked so upright.

Chen Ci returned home, and as soon as he walked to the door, he smelled a burst of fragrance.

He had never smelled it before, and his stomach, which had not eaten all afternoon, suddenly squirmed and gurgled sound.

Hungry.
