12. Control group in the 70s 10
The two brothers pecked each other and didn't recognize each other, so the little girls who followed behind picked up a lot of jokes to listen to, and the group went down the mountain in a fight.
The trip was very fruitful, three rabbits, two pheasants, two of which fell into the pit and died, and one pheasant was clipped. Lu Wei shirked her fear and asked Luo Yuting to take the dead rabbit home, and the lame pheasant was also given to the two brothers.
The two brothers didn't want it yet, but Luo Yuting opened her mouth and they were embarrassed to accept it.
It's not that Luo Yuting covets the prey that the little girl has so hard to harvest, but she finds that Nan Nan believes in the principle of equivalent exchange, just like doing exercises in exchange for rewards. She doesn't understand the meaning of learning, but she understands the truth that there is a reward for paying, so she is very proactive and unresistive every time she does a problem, just to get the right to exchange for delicious food.
If they don't accept it this time, if there is anything next time, they will definitely solve it secretly by themselves again.
At this point, she is simply precocious, not like a four-year-old doll.
Maybe it's the children of the poor who are in charge early!
Luo Yuting thought embarrassedly.
For a few days, they went to the mountains to take a walk around the mountains, and although the harvest was not as good as the first day, they never fell short, and the wounded or dead prey was divided between sides, adding a lot of food to the tables of the two families.
Almost everyone in the village knows the situation of Grandma Zhou's house, and when they meet occasionally, they will turn a blind eye. It is normal for the children to go to the mountains to dig out a bird's egg and catch a bird as a snack, saying that it is hunting, but in fact, there are no decent tools, and the affairs of the Zhou family are really embarrassing, and the people in the village tacitly avoid talking about it.
However, Luo Yuting understood the inconvenience of this era, and immediately took the lead in setting an example and persuading her.
Lu Wei didn't want to run up the mountain for a long time, she was not a diligent person, if it weren't for Grandma Zhou's body not allowing it, she still enjoyed the age of human cubs, except for eating and drinking.
So the four children decided to go up the mountain one last time, collect their prey, and fill the trap. Unexpectedly, the small animals on the mountain were unusually cooperative, and a nest of hares actually crashed into the back basket placed on the ground one by one, and stupidly clumps gnawed on the wild vegetables picked by the nannan from the edge of the river beach.
The three siblings were completely dumbfounded.
Unsurprisingly, Lu Wei directly covered the back basket with a coarse cloth and sealed the mouth. Luo Yuting picked up the wild vegetable leaves that were inadvertently pulled out by the hare, and found a reasonable explanation for Nannan, "It's endive, Nannan picks old leaves, and rabbits love to eat it." ”
This time, the three brothers and sisters refused to divide the rabbits, so Lu Wei simply stole them all.
Now that she can eat meat for dinner, Grandma Zhou began to think that it was supported by the captain's family, and thought about returning the meat ticket to others, but when she saw the hare jumping around in the corner of the yard and driving two old hens, she knew that the four children had gone hunting in the mountains.
Her heart was so frightened that she was about to jump out, and there were occasional wild boars in the mountains, and it was difficult for adults to deal with them when they saw them. Moreover, it is still forbidden to hunt privately, and the mountains are all public property. It's okay that they are children, no one is watching, and no one will care about the atmosphere in the village, but after a long time, it is inevitable that people will catch the handle and cause trouble.
She hurriedly dragged the children to the health center, and after the barefoot doctor proved that she was fully recovered, she closed the door and sternly warned them not to go up the mountain without permission again.
The four little ones nodded obediently.
provoked the old lady to be both moved and blamed herself.
Grandma Zhou only rested for more than ten days, and took Lu Wei to the edge of the forest, cut some thin branches and built a nest for the rabbits, so that they would not run around and make the yard smelly.
The prey that she hadn't eaten before was also let out of the pickled sauce and put it in the empty cellar, and when the farm was busy, she could take it out and eat it directly.
After finishing the family's work, Grandma Zhou quickly devoted herself to farming.
Lu Wei also resumed her previous routine, studying with Luo Yuting in the morning, and going to the fields to work with Grandma Zhou in the afternoon, the difference is that the grandparents no longer have to live cautiously.
There is no unscrupulous waste of the two at home, and the remaining food and money can be used to survive the winter.
Around mid-May, two female rabbits in the family gave birth to a litter of rabbits on their front and back feet.
A total of seventeen little rabbits, because they were found late, one was crushed to death, Grandma Zhou picked out three males and three mothers to keep as breeding rabbits, and the remaining two pairs were given to Luo Yuting and the twins, and one pair was given to Aunt Li.
Individual farming is still in the prohibition period, and it is used as an excuse for children to play.
These two families often come to help her during her illness, and the little rabbit can't resist this friendship, but it's just a little heart.
The last four were raised a little bigger, made into sauce rabbit meat, and given to the sisters and Luo Chengqing, the branch secretary, who occasionally helped cook a few times. And the young men who sent her to the medical station had sent a plate of sauce meat earlier.
In fact, it is common for people in the village to help each other, but Grandma Zhou has such a temperament, she doesn't like to ask for favors, so she will try to do things more comprehensively.
There are too many rabbits stolen at home, and the hay on both sides of the path is not enough to eat, so Lu Wei's daily routine has added another one, and she and her grandmother go to the edge of the forest to hunt weeds.
Zhou Yuting's rabbits were raised separately, and the village leaders did not dare to engage in capitalist breeding with great fanfare. Occasionally, let the rabbit give birth to a litter to satisfy the stomach of the family.
Aunt Li also secretly raised rabbits, but she couldn't raise them, and as soon as her sons came back from school, they wanted to kill them and make meat for their sons to eat.
Although the materials were scarce in the 70s, it was much better than not having enough to eat every day during the famine, and the breeding rabbits left by Grandma Zhou gave birth to a lot of rabbits, and later there were too many of them, so she secretly went to the town to barter. Over time, the empty cellar was gradually filled in half.
My grandfather and grandson love to nest in the cool cellar in the middle of summer to count the surplus grain......
Grandma Zhou was ingenious, and every two days, she changed her tricks to make some troublesome and delicate delicacies for Lu Wei, and she never treated the child badly in terms of food.
Year after year passed like this, and in the summer of the third year, Lu Wei, who was less than seven years old, was reborn under the careful feeding of her grandmother and Luo Yuting's meals.
The little skin was white and powdery, and the small body that was obviously malnourished jumped up several times. The old clothes were put in two or three sizes, and the long clothes and trousers have all been turned into three-point packs.
In the summer of this year, the dilapidated cowshed in the village was inhabited - two old and three young people from Beijing, and it was said that they should go to Xiaoluo Village to renovate and renovate, destroy the four olds, and strive to get a new life.
The three brothers and sisters are surnamed Li, the eldest brother Li Yu is twelve years old, the second brother Li Nuo is ten years old, and the youngest sister Li Han is eight years old.
Many children in the village have a vague concept of the four olds, but it does not prevent them from watching the lively and bullying people who follow the crowd, and they have also done disgusting things such as throwing dung balls into the cowshed.
