Chapter 15: Poverty
"Mother, I'm friends with her." After a pause, he suddenly relented and explained.
Ke Rong hugged his small body and shook it slowly, just like when he gently shook his shaker when he was a child. She said softly: "Yangui, mother hopes that you are just an ordinary person and do not have to bear so much pressure and pain. ”
"I see." He replied obediently, "She is indeed a kind person. ”
Looking back at her quiet sleeping face, it was hard to hide the loss in her heart.
Even ordinary friends have to draw a distance.,That.。。 Hum.
He suddenly felt unwilling. Nothing has started yet, but nothing has started yet!
I can't even start, but luckily I didn't.
He looked up at the sky again, and although it was already much darker, he could still see the clarity in the black. Is that where she came from, far away as if she could touch it with all her efforts, but it seemed that she couldn't touch it anyway.
Got it...
He'll keep his distance.
"Mother, will you go to Heaven in the future?" Ke Yangui held back his frustration and asked her.
She smiled calmly, stroked his face and said affectionately: "Mother doesn't want to be a fairy, be a person, dare to love and hate without restraint." ”
Ke Yangui's thoughts were low and he nodded in response. Swallowing his complicated emotions, he looked up and said with a smile, "Mother, let's eat." The dish is already stir-fried. ”
"Okay." Ke Rong touched his head and said.
The table in the room was also kicked and broken by the gang. This family was already poor, and after they made a fuss, there was no decent furniture. Ke Rong looked at the embarrassment at home and smiled bitterly, looked down at Ke Yangui's dress, and had changed into a decent dress. That face was childish, but it was a little more calm. Sure enough, she owed the child too much. It's time to make it up to him in the future.
In the whole room, there are only two pieces of furniture that can be seen, one is the bed and the other is the cabinet. The bed was just a few pieces of wood, and the cabinet was intact because it was made of stones, so it had no doors and was only covered by a piece of cloth.
Ke Yangui still took a few stones and piled them up to make a table as usual, and put the dishes on it. This way, you won't bend over too much when picking up vegetables.
He then walked up to Liang Xueyin and squatted down, she slept soundly. I don't know why, I feel a sting in my heart when I see this scene. Shake your head and stop yourself from thinking about it. Gently pushing her awake, she made a reluctant sound, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and when she opened it, she found that it was him, so she asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"It's time to eat." Ke Yangui got up from the ground and walked over there.
"Oh." She got up from the floor and saw several stones piled up on the ground, and on the stones was a fried spring shoot. This dish has no appetite when it looks at it. They didn't cook either. She stared at Ke Yangui and took out a piece of cloth from under the quilt. Open it, and inside is a piece of flatbread. Only one of his faces was the size.
Then he walked up to Liang Xueyin, broke the cake in half, handed her half of it, and said, "I didn't cook rice today, because the rice has been eaten." If you can't eat, I'll buy you some on the street later. ”
Liang Xueyin was embarrassed when she heard him. Although it is true that he does not have a little appetite, he can barely eat it when he is so enthusiastic. So he took the bread with both hands, divided it in two, and handed it back: "I can't eat so much." ”
Ke Yangui looked at Ke Rong for help, and Ke Rong nodded. He took back the quarter of the bread, and gave the half of the bread in his hand to Ke Rong, and said, "Mother, eat it." She and I both had small appetites and couldn't eat that much. ”
Liang Xueyin suddenly felt warm in his heart, Yin Yin was a piece of cake with a big face, but he could be humble to this point. And this is a plot that can never happen in her family. She counts every day without wasting food.
"Mother's appetite is also small, and you are all still young, when you are growing your body. Eat a little more. Ke Rong was about to break her piece again, but Liang Xueyin stretched out her hand to stop her, and refused with a smile: "No, madam, it's a waste of food to us, you can eat first." If we don't have enough, you can give it to us again. Xue Yin shook the cake in his hand, and then took a bite of it.
The moment he first entered his mouth, he paused and frowned slightly, and he wanted to vomit it very much. It didn't taste at all, she had never eaten such an unpalatable cake, and there was no taste at all in her mouth, and it was even slightly bitter, and there were black spots on the cake. Could it be that the kang is mush?
Ke Yangui leaned over and took the cake in her hand, patiently pulled off all the black spots on it, and then handed it back to her. Reminder: "There are moldy spots on it to be removed, you can't eat it, you will get sick." ”
She replied sluggishly, and finally swallowed the mouthful in her mouth. The cake was back in his hand, and he looked at the two of them eating deliciously, and his heart was uneasy. Ke Rong realized that she was looking at herself, and she was looking at her. And she took another bite in order not to worry Ke Rong. This time, with the disgust in my heart, it was really even more unpalatable. Trying to persuade yourself is all fake, it's all psychological, and you should control your facial expressions so that they don't notice anything wrong.
This may be the best they can come up with, after all, the family's income depends on Ke Yan alone, how much money can he earn as a child. For a family like theirs, treating her well enough.
Even if life is hard, they try their best to make it better and live without a sad face, they are already very powerful. The more I got in touch with them, the more I admired him. A person like Ke Yangui, if he can get the help of nobles, he may also have something to do, just like his grandfather. Grandpa often told her stories about his youth, and he grew up in such an environment. In the end, he relied on his own efforts to create his own world and win the respect of everyone.
Ke Yangui saw that she was distracted and didn't eat vegetables, so he gave her vegetables and the chopsticks stayed in front of her. He said, "There is no taste in eating bread." ”
She suddenly came to her senses, ducked back a bit, looked at him and said, "Hmm. "Lay the bread flat, and he put the dish on the bread. She ate this bite of the cake with vegetables, but it was no different from just eating bread.
Dry and tasteless.
I didn't want them to worry, so I also sandwiched some dishes to eat below, and they were all the same anyway. It is said that Ke Yangui's craftsmanship is true, and it is difficult to describe it.
Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad. The lunch meal still felt like it had some flavor and could be eaten immediately. This meal doesn't taste like any salt. Salt is not cheap, the rice is gone, and the salt should be too.
She is not familiar with prices, but she still knows a little about ordinary things. Because when she was at home, her mother would always give her money to go out shopping alone.
