Chapter 16: Fireflies
In my impression, it seems that because Wen Cheng had a fight with another child who had a good relationship with Wen Ning at the time, the two of them had a conflict and no longer wanted to be good.
Wen Ning can't remember what happened, only the second brother broke the other party's head, Wen Sushi lost money, and gave Wen Cheng a lesson at home A rough memory.
However, in Wen Ning's opinion, this second brother is not like a bad boy who likes to find fault for no reason, maybe there was some misunderstanding in the original incident!
There is no seasoning at home, the rabbit is just boiled casually, but for the Wen family, it is a rare delicacy.
Wen Ning lost weight and wanted to eat meat, but he only tasted it, and he was satisfied.
But she thought it was her golden finger, and the things in Wen Jingshu's memory seemed to be useless, and Wen Ning was sad.
How can she cross without space and system? It's not fair.
The Wen family's grain has been harvested, and they are not so busy. The delicacy of the rabbit is obvious to all, and Wen Ning started the idea of selling game to make money.
"Mother, isn't our family busy tomorrow, I want to go to the mountains to dig traps to see if I can catch pheasants and hares or something, you remember to call me up tomorrow morning!"
In order to prevent himself from sleeping until noon, Wen Ning told Wen Sushi his thoughts in advance and "set an alarm clock".
The animals on the mountain are not easy to catch, but Wen Su is used to her baby daughter, and whatever Wen Ning wants to do, as long as it will not be bad to herself, she is a hundred supporters.
"Well, it's not busy, let your two brothers go to the mountains with you early tomorrow morning, what to do, you just tell them."
In fact, after harvesting the grain, the grain has to be exposed to the sun, dried and packed in bags.
But since her daughter has an idea, let her two brothers help first, the food at home, with her, plus the fool, is barely enough.
Neither Wen Shi nor Wen Cheng objected.
Especially Wen Cheng, he felt that since he fell into the water, his little sister was different, and he could take the opportunity to get to know each other.
"Mother, I also want to follow my sister into the mountain!" Wen Li saw that Wen Sushi didn't mention himself, so he hurriedly recommended himself.
Wen Sushi patted him on the head, "Okay, you go too." ”
Originally, there was one more fool in the family, and the labor force was almost enough, Wen Li was still young, and Wen Sushi also felt sorry for his youngest son, so he could have fun.
But these days, the youngest son did not disappoint her, and without him going to the fields, he went to the mountains and dug up a lot of wild vegetables for the family to eat.
"Thank you, mother, mother is the best." With permission, Wen Li smiled sweetly, and the problem of sweet mouth could not be changed.
After dinner, in this hot weather, taking a bath is a must, grabbing the knotted hair, Wen Ning touched the oil in his hand.
The Wen family is poor, and they take a bath, wash their hair and wash their clothes, and they all use clean water directly and soap horns found in the mountains.
The soap corner is a bit troublesome to use, and the effect is not particularly good, Wen Ning can't help but think of the video she once saw on her mobile phone, about making handmade soap.
Add water to the plant ash and mix it to get alkaline water, add lard and a little salt and wait for it to cool, and the handmade soap is ready.
The steps are not difficult, but lard and salt are both precious things, if they are made, they are convenient for use at home, and the cost of selling them is too high, and it is estimated that there is no market.
Thinking about everything, Wen Ning sighed.
The Wen family is too poor, can she really lose weight and bring the Wen family rich again?
I can't think about it anymore, and if I think about it any more, Wen Ning feels that she is almost out of motivation to live.
I washed my hair with some soap, then took a shower, and sat at the head of the bed to blow the cool breeze outside.
In the hot summer, only the cool breeze blowing at night can soothe some of the inner heat.
The mood gradually calmed down, and Wen Ning's problem of liking cranky thoughts came out again.
What if she can't lose weight and can't make the Wen family rich? Wen Ning was confused for a moment, and the hopeless future made her afraid.
But her mood didn't last long, because Wen Li walked by the window.
Wen Li followed Wen Ning, the second to take a bath, just after taking a bath, he saw his sister sitting by the window, and said with a smile: "Sister, what are you looking at?" ”
seemed to have thought of something, and without waiting for Wen Ning to answer, he ran to the door with a "da-da-da", not knowing what to do.
After a while, he ran back again, panting.
Wen Ning shook his head, this stupid kid, just after taking a shower, he ran around, and washed in vain.
She was just about to say a few words to make her cheap brother more stable, when she saw Wen Li spread his clenched right fist.
It turned out to be a firefly with a yellowish glow on its buttocks!
As if knowing that they had a chance to escape, the firefly emitted a strong ghostly light, spread its wings, and flew up.
At this time, squatting next to the water tank in the yard not far away, Wen Sushi, who was washing the clothes of his family, said what Wen Ning just wanted to say.
"Run, run, run so fast at night, immediately have to sweat again, and take a white bath!"
Wen Li didn't care, turned around and smiled at his mother, and looked at Wen Ning with bright eyes, "Sister, isn't it good-looking?" As soon as I took a shower, I saw this little thing flying in front of our house. ”
At this moment, Wen Ning's confused heart was soothed, and the insects outside were as noisy as ever, but the children in front of her and the family in the yard gave her great comfort.
The family is united, what is she not satisfied with?
Cheering up again, Wen Ning smiled at his younger brother and said, "It's good-looking, Ah Li is awesome!" ”
The fireflies briefly flew around the sister and brother a few times, and seemed to have found the right opportunity, and flew high and far away at once.
Wen Li still wanted to catch it, but it was too late.
"No, this little bug is pretty fast."
Looking at the annoyed and unwilling appearance of the little boy in front of him, Wen Ning laughed: "Fireflies must fly, their lives are very short, of course, they have to send enough light, fly enough grass to be enough." ”
Wen Li scratched his head, as if he didn't understand the truth, and carried out the belief that whatever his sister said was right, he took Wen Ning's words to heart and nodded heavily.
"Okay, Ah Li hurry up and cool down and go to bed, I'm very happy Ah Li's little gift, I hope Ah Li can accompany me into the mountain tomorrow, we have to take today's good luck, and then harvest a lot."
Wen Ning took out a handkerchief from the table by the window and wiped the sweat from Wen Li's head.
The original body of this handkerchief has always been very precious, and when the seller came to Guyu Village before, Wen Su's family bought it for ten cents to Wen Ning.
In the entire Guyu Village, there is no one who spends money so generously on their daughters, and when they bought a handkerchief, Wen Ning was jealous of the little girls in the village for a while.
Of course, there must be a reason why the original body went out with a handkerchief to show off.
Wen Ning wiped Wen Li's sweat, Wen Li smiled, became even happier, and happily ran to the room of the three brothers.
