Gu Huai hadn't had such a hard time for a long time.

He originally wanted to stay in his room for a while, but found that they slept in a bunk, and only Gu Huai's place had a curtain drawn.

This is already the highest treatment in their family.

Gu Huai's evaluation: It's better to stay in the previous world.

Of course, this is just a thought.

Compared with living and wearing, Gu Huai is most concerned about his own food.

The gruel served at dinner can count the number of rice, and this is still the bowl of porridge with the most rice in the Gu family.

In Xiao Xiao's bowl, there was only pot water, and there was not a single grain of clean rice.

No one spoke at the dinner table, everyone buried their heads to eat, and the sound of drinking porridge was squirming, like a big yellow dog drinking water.

On a huge black table, there was only a pot of cabbage, no oil at all, and it looked like people had no appetite at all.

Gu Huai lowered his head, drank the porridge in the bowl, didn't eat the cabbage on the table, got up and left to go out to breathe.

Huang Cuicui's husband is a hunter, but now he has been eating a big pot of rice and has not hunted for a long time. Besides, a few years ago, he fell his leg on the mountain, and now it is not easy to walk, let alone hunting, and he can't chase the children at the intersection.

Standing outside with a cold wind blowing, Gu Huai stared at his sister, who was three years older than him.

Gu Huai's eldest sister, second sister, third sister and fourth sister are all married and rarely come back, the fifth sister Gu Xiao is thirteen years old, and the sixth sister Gu Xiao is eleven years old.

Probably because Gu Huai's food is better than theirs, he is about the same height as them. He came to Gu Xiaoliu's side: "Sixth sister, do you want to eat meat?" ”

This is a question that can be answered without thinking about it.

Gu Xiaoliu didn't think about it, so he followed behind Gu Huai.

Gu Huai took her to a paddy field.

It was pitch black everywhere in the village, and in order to save electricity, they turned off the lights early and went to sleep. Gu Xiaoliu shrunk his neck, feeling a little cold.

She opened her mouth: "Ah Gu, there are only grass roots here, where is there meat to eat?" ”

Gu Huai glanced at her small body and felt that it was really a little unkind to ask her to go into the water, so he had to give up the plan to ask her to go into the water to fish.

I am not afraid of the cold, but the little girl is very afraid, in case it freezes, there will be fewer people at her disposal in the future.

He heard the sound of birds.

Gu Huai: "Flutter a few birds and stew soup to drink." ”

In winter they are slow to react and can always catch a few.

Gu Xiaoliu opened his mouth wide: "Catching a house sparrow? ”

Gu Huai nodded.

Ten minutes later.

Watching Gu Xiaoliu run around and fall a few times on the cold muddy ground, Gu Huai sighed, called her over, pulled off the rubber band that tied her hair from her head, touched a few stones, and bounced out.

A few birds were caught.

Gu Huai: "Pick it up and go back to stew soup." ”

Gu Xiaoliu was skeptical: "This, can you eat it?" ”

Gu Huai glanced at her: "Yours belongs to me." ”

Gu Xiaoliu: "Don't! ”

Back at home, Gu Xiaoliu woke up Xiao Xiao and told her to get up and make a fire.

Gu Xiaoliu originally said that they secretly hid and ate it by themselves, but Gu Huai disagreed. He said that there were four birds in total, one for Xiao Xiao, otherwise he wouldn't do it next time.

Gu Xiaoliu thought about it and felt that the bird was indeed not easy to catch, so he agreed with Gu Huai's statement. But the premise is that she will want two birds next time.

Xiao Xiao rubbed his eyes and got up, without alarming Huang Cuicui who was lying next to him, pulling Gu Xiaowu, several people lit a fire and put a large pot of water.

The water was boiling, Gu Xiaowu and Xiao Xiao plucked the hair, removed the internal organs, washed it and threw it into the pot.

There is no other way to eat it, only this one, and even salt is not very good.

However, even this way of eating clear soup with little water still made several girls swallow their saliva.

They stood by the pot, looking at the boiling soup and counting the time with their fingers crossed.

Gu Huai looked at the pot, thinking that the ginger was not put in, the cooking wine was not there, and the chili pepper he liked was not there. It's really pure broth.

Seeing that the meat was almost cooked, Gu Xiaoliu couldn't help it at first, fished one out with chopsticks, and rubbed his ears hotly.

She pulled a piece of meat: "Cooked, cooked!" ”

With that, he shrank aside.

Xiao Xiao and Gu Xiaowu fished up the remaining birds. Gu Xiaowu followed Gu Xiaoliu to the side, Xiao Xiao took the bowl and handed it to Gu Huai first.

Gu Huai glanced at the bird in the bowl, pulled his two legs, and returned the rest to Xiao Xiao: "You can eat, I don't like to eat." ”

This bird is thin, there is no meat for two or two, only the meat on the two legs is not firewood, and the meat on the chest is not very fond of eating.

In the eyes of Xiao Xiao and a few others, this is not the case at all.

Gu Xiaoliu looked at the extra half of the bird in Xiao Xiao's bowl, and said jealously: "Brother has not married a daughter-in-law, and he has begun to feel distressed. ”

Gu Xiaowu didn't say anything, just lowered his head and ate.

Xiao Xiao's face turned slightly red, and he silently lowered his head and gnawed on his bones.

Gu Huai didn't bother to explain, ate two legs, drank some soup, and felt that it was a little fishy.

They were almost finished eating, and Huang Cuicui and his wife got out of bed when they asked about the fragrance.

Huang Cuicui screamed: "You rabbit cubs, don't call you mother and me when you hunt wild food!" ”

Gu Huai glanced at her: "Do you want everyone to know?" ”

Huang Cuicui immediately shut up.

She didn't want to be cut off the tail of capitalism, in case someone found out, not only would she not have to eat a bite of meat, but she would not even want to lick the soup.

Huang Cuicui hurriedly added soup to the bowl, first gave a bowl to Gu's father Gu Zhongyi, and then added a bowl to herself, and poured it out.

Drinking and drinking, she asked Gu Xiaoliu, "Where did this bird come from?" ”

Huang Cuicui can understand that her son learned from Xiao Xiao's skinless thing, Gu Xiaowu is a gourd with a sawed mouth, only Gu Xiaoliu is well-behaved and will honestly reply to her words.

Gu Xiaoliu looked at Gu Huai's eyes, and craned his neck to follow what Gu Huai taught him and said, "It's cold, and Ah Gu picked it up outside." ”

With that, she lowered her head and licked the edge of the bowl.

Huang Cuicui suddenly realized.

It turned out to be a frozen bird picked up on the side of the road. No wonder, she said.

I didn't expect the two hairy children to be able to pick it up, there must be something missing, she rushed Ming'er to try her luck and see if she could pick up a few to fight the tooth sacrifice!

The more Huang Cuicui thought about it, the more excited she became, thinking that she would pick up a bird tomorrow, one stewed, one steamed, one roasted and roasted, and one salted, and kept it for tomorrow to eat in spring.

No, all four of them are pickled, and when Ah Gu marries his daughter-in-law, they will serve wine and eat!

Huang Cuicui held the empty bowl, daydreaming with a smile, and Xiao Xiaodan, who quietly looked at her face, was frightened. Usually Huang Cuicui's expression is not good for her.

She shrunk her neck and was about to be scolded, Huang Cuicui took the initiative to clean up, washed the pots and dishes with a smile, and was just about to sleep when she saw the bones on the ground.

She screamed: "Xiao Xiao! You skinless thing! You ate two! ”
