Chapter 894: Famine, Natural Disasters 51
Cheng Yuanxi shook his head amusedly, "If you hear it, you hear it, it's good that you knew things earlier, but you are not allowed to talk about the east and west outside; The girl's family should be ladylike, she must be virtuous, she should not talk nonsense, and her heart should be clear. ”
"Listen to your father, he's right." Chen Daya nodded in agreement.
Mingyi nodded again and again, "I know, Daddy, let's go quickly; I'm hungry, so I'll feed you first, please. ”
"Okay, good, more and more coquettish." The mother tapped her daughter's forehead and was helpless against her.
"What's the way to do it, my father and mother are used to it, let's go."
Chen Daya brought a dug wild vegetables, and the rest was held by Cheng Yuanxi, and the couple returned to the waterhole with their daughter.
Cheng Mingli picked out the wild vegetables, washed them out and dried them aside, and put them together with the wild vegetables that were dried before; Wiping his hands, when he looked up, he saw that his father and sister were back, with a smile on his face.
"Daddy, sister, you're back."
"You've found a lot of wild vegetables, too." At a glance, Mrs. Chen saw the wild vegetables with water droplets in front of him, and a small piece of them was cleaned up, which saved her the effort of washing wild vegetables.
"My sister and I found a lot of wild vegetables in the meadow, but there were many old and tender ones." Cheng Mingli said, "Daddy, uncle and second uncle haven't come back yet." ”
Cheng Yuanxi looked at the people who came back to cook one after another, so he said: "They should be soon, you two will wash and dry the wild vegetables we brought back, and my father and mother will cook." ”
"Okay." Cheng Mingli shook his head and took his sister to the water's edge, he washed wild vegetables and let his sister stir up water on the side.
Mingyi washes her face with water, and the warm water pours on her face to wash off the impurities, sweat and dust removed from the pores; After washing, she had nothing to do, and she came to her brother's side.
"Brother, I'll go find my mother."
"Mother is busy over there." Cheng Mingli said.
Mingyi raised her eyebrows, "I'll go find my mother to get food, aren't you hungry?" ”
"Hungry!" Cheng Mingli was hungry at this time, where could he not be hungry, "Then you go quickly, take it out and we will eat quietly; Otherwise, the uncle and the second uncle will not see it well when they come back. ”
Mingyi nodded in response, and trotted to find Chen Daya, "Mother, my brother and I are so hungry, give us some jerky to eat first." ”
"Take it yourself, just fill your stomach to satisfy your cravings, don't take too much." Chen Daya waved her hand and asked her to go by herself.
Mingyi smiled and ran quickly towards the wooden shed where Cheng Yuanxi and his wife lived; Seeing the big baggage in the corner of the house covered by luggage, he pulled the luggage open, reached into the bag and took two handfuls of jerky.
One is put into the pocket, but it is actually put into the space.
One handful is divided into four parts, and one piece of jerky is one piece; The volume of jerky is not large, and it is the thickness of an adult's finger.
"Daddy, you eat too." ran up to the front man with a piece of jerky in his mouth, turned his head and ran to his brother's side; Cover the field of vision with your body and stuff one into your brother's mouth.
Cheng Mingli was washing and eating, looking a little more childish, and a little less Sven cultivated by a scholar.
After eating a piece, Mingyi took out one from his pocket and gave it to him, and then he finished washing the wild vegetables; He simply sat on the ground with his back to the clansmen who came back one after another, and finished eating with his sister in a dead corner of his sight.
"Okay, Yiyi finds a cool place to rest, and my brother will go over after drying these wild vegetables." Cheng Mingli got up.
"I'll help my brother with me."
Mingyi smiled and put the last bite into her mouth, and finished drying the wet wild vegetables with him a few times; After doing this, Cheng Mingli took her to wash her hands and go to the shade under the wooden shed to cool off.
When Cheng Mingyue returned with her mother, what she saw was Cheng Mingyi's brother and sister sitting together, talking and laughing, and pulling down their faces; When she wanted to have a seizure, she seemed to have a pain in her face and body, and it hurt everywhere.
simply out of sight and out of mind, turned around and ran to pick up Luo Cuihua.
Luo Cuihua saw that Cheng Mingyue was so well-behaved, but she smiled happily, "Yueyue has worked hard." ”
"Grandmother." Cheng Mingyue's face changed slightly, where did she work? It's just that I followed my mother around, and I didn't actually do anything.
"Go and play with the rituals, this is something that grandmother lifted." After Luo Cuihua finished speaking lovingly, Cheng Mingyue didn't know why, she always felt empty.
Li Lianhua smiled with satisfaction on the side, and said to her husband beside her: "Look, Yueyue is much more sensible." ”
"She's not sensible, she's afraid; When you are afraid, you know what is good. Cheng Yuandong understood it, "If she is really sensible, she will not be lazy today, who can guarantee that there will be enough food on the way to escape the famine; When you encounter a place like the valley and don't know how to get more food to come back, you know to find an opportunity to be lazy. ”
"Anyway, Yueyue is already changing." Li Lianhua was also angry in her heart, and ignored him.
Cheng Yuandong shook his head and sighed, and glanced at his station, "You can also go and help cook, you can't let the third brother and the third brother and sister be busy; They had already washed the wild vegetables and dried them, and I went to wash them and dry them. ”
This time, Li Lianhua didn't refute, and walked towards Chen Daya.
"Third brother, I'll help the third brother and sister cook, you go and rest." Li Lianhua smiled heartily, as if she was not angry in front of Cheng Yuandong.
However, although Cheng Yuanxi, who had watched the whole process, couldn't hear what they said, he knew that Li Lianhua was unhappy.
"Then it's hard sister-in-law." Cheng Yuanxi handed over the burden freely and walked in the direction of his children, "Ming etiquette, etiquette." ”
"Daddy." Mingyi smiled, even if her face was tanned wheat, it was festive.
Cheng Mingli smiled and raised his head, "Dad, you also come over to rest and sweat." ”
Cheng Yuanxi sat down beside his son, wiped the sweat on his son's face, and said distressedly: "You have been running outside for a long time, why didn't you come back by yourself instead of your cousin." ”
"They were digging wild vegetables, and my sister and I came back first when we were hungry; Dad, I don't know what's going on, but today I heard my cousin and they don't feel comfortable treating us. Cheng Mingli said sullenly.
Mingyi knows that no one knows how to be obedient, and no one wants others to control themselves too much; When you don't understand your heart, you will feel upset like Cheng Mingli's state.
To put it bluntly, I can't see my heart clearly, I don't know what state it is, and I can only rely on instinctive habits to fight.
When the mind is clear, the state will be different.
At that time, wisdom will arise naturally.
Cheng Yuanxi said with a transparent smile: "You are growing up, you have your ideas, and you are unwilling to follow other people's ideas; Just do it as you like, don't worry too much. You can refuse what you don't want to do, and you can go back if you don't want to hear it, but you have to be reasonable, understand? ”
"Whether we are afraid or refused, we must stand on the side of reason." He also came from a child, and he knew what he wanted from a young age.
He would reasonably refuse his brothers' requests; What you don't want to do, you will definitely not follow other people's mouths, and you naturally understand what kind of mentality your son is now.
