Chapter 136: Grandpa Niu's granddaughter loves pomegranates the most
At this time, you can see pomegranates, which are treasures that no number of people can grab.
But even so, Grandpa Niu still refused to agree.
"The girl doesn't know, the homeless people are not allowed to enter the city, or are they afraid of causing public anger, do you think, the homeless people have arrived in the Nanming generation, and there are still few things? First of all, he robbed the house, and this made a lot of demons and monsters, so this is the rule that was set. ”
The old man said with a look of embarrassment, but he still glanced at the big pomegranate in the girl's hand.
He wanted to eat, but he was a half-legged person who stepped into the coffin, and the loess was buried up to his waist, even if he didn't eat and starved to death, it would be a good deal to live.
But the meaning of this pomegranate is the same as that of a watermelon, it is hope, and he really hopes that God will be beautiful in his lifetime, and when it rains, he can bury this hope in the soil again.
The death is also blind.
Thinking about it, the old man plucked the wick in distress, and protected it with both hands, so as not to let the wind outside blow up, otherwise it would increase the speed of burning, which was the last bit of oil.
"Then Grandpa Niu said, this matter can't be done, it doesn't matter, I'll think of other ways, this pomegranate is still given to grandpa."
Ah Jiu smiled and stuffed the pomegranate to the old man.
The old man took it and looked at Ah Jiu in a daze: "Grandpa didn't help you, you also gave grandpa food?" ”
"Why didn't you help me? If it weren't for you who took us in, we might have been taken away by the officers and soldiers tonight. ”
Ah Jiu couldn't let this simple grandfather have any unnecessary burden in his heart, and smiled like a three-year-old child.
"You are a good baby, thank you for your kindness, if my granddaughter hadn't died, she would be as old as you."
Saying that, Uncle Niu's eyes were gloomy, and he muttered to himself looking at the pomegranate in his hand:
"At that time, the mountains were full of pomegranates, and she ate pomegranates without spitting out seeds, hehe."
At the end, she laughed twice, as if she could still see her granddaughter eating a pomegranate when she raised her eyes.
Uncle Niu also felt that it was not good to be favored by others, so he left the oil lamp for them to use:
"I'm afraid that the two babies will be scared at night, so I'll leave it for you to use, but it's also the last nest of oil, and it's gone when it's used up."
As he spoke, the old man trembled and went out with a pomegranate in his hand, and entered the hall in disgrace.
"Grandpa, wait." Ah Jiu chased it out.
"Anything else?" Grandpa Niu looked at Ah Jiu with a brick.
"Grandpa, do you have a stone mill at home?" Ah Jiu asked.
"Yes, this kind of thing is available in every family, and in the early years, when the beans were harvested, they were used to squeeze oil and grind tofu."
Grandpa Niu seemed to think of his granddaughter, and his words were full of loneliness.
"That's right, grandpa, I have most of the tea seeds in my pocket, which I picked on the mountain on the road, if you don't dislike it, you can use it to squeeze oil tomorrow, not only can you eat it, but you can also light the lamp."
Ah Jiu can be regarded as meeting the right person, and he is still worried about the dried tea seeds and doesn't know where to find a stone grinder.
"Tea seeds?"
"Yes, grandpa, tea seeds, that is, the kind of tea seeds that are fried in clear oil, the oil is green and yellow, especially Cheng Liang."
Ah Jiu happily gestured.
"Good, good, great, this is great." Uncle Niu had a smile on his face again:
"Tomorrow, grandpa will fry and squeeze oil, but you can't talk nonsense about this, it's easy to attract thieves."
Ah, this can't be said, Ah Jiu thinks about it, in this era, let alone oil, there are people grabbing water:
"Jiu'er doesn't say it."
Grandpa Niu entered the house and closed the door.
Ah Jiu could hear his voice.
"Old woman, I didn't expect to see watermelons when I was old, fortunately we haven't done anything bad in our lives, maybe God sees me pitiful, and sent a good girl to soothe one or two, you can rest assured over there."
Take care of our granddaughter carefully, and in a few years, the old man will accompany you. ”
Ah Jiu looked in curiously through the crack in the door.
Finding that there were four spiritual seats on the front wall of the hall, Grandpa Niu put the pomegranate in front of one of the spiritual seats, and muttered in his mouth:
"Eat it, this is your favorite pomegranate."
Family, all dead? Ah Jiu gasped, no wonder Grandpa Niu had so many rooms in his house, but only he and Lao Niu lived.
"Jiu'er girl."
Dongwu Mao Junlan whispered to her.
Ah Jiu entered the east house and closed the door, and Mao Junlan said with a sad brow:
"What can I do, I can't enter the city tomorrow, can you think of any other way?"
