Chapter 17: Eccentricity

In the cabin, Lu Xiaoyu ostentatiously pulled things out.

"This pig's knuckle was bought by Xiao Wu for his mother to make soup and drink." Lu Xiaoyu raised the pig's feet in his hand and shook them, "Aunt Ding said, the pig's feet and soybeans boiled soup together and drank the most milk." ”

I heard that it was used for Qiu's soup and milk, but Lu Xiaoli didn't say anything.

She was willing to give her mother food, even if Xiao Wu didn't ask her and her eldest sister to spend the copper money, she didn't think there was anything wrong.

Lu Xiaoyu hugged the basket and took out a big pig bone from the lotus leaf: "This is the big pig bone that we bought the pig's feet and Aunt Ding added to the head, Xiao Wu said that we will drink the soup together." ”

As he spoke, Lu Xiaoyu couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Pork bone soup, she hasn't drunk bone broth since she grew so big?

I don't know if it's better than fish soup.

Lu Xiaoli looked at the big bones of the pig that were smooth and meatless, his face was slightly gloomy, but he didn't say anything.

The little four all said that it was a head, and that was a head.

She only wants to know now how much copper money is left for Xiao Si and Xiao Wu to buy Zongye.

If there is too much left, can she divide it into two pennies.

Even if she doesn't have a penny, and the family has more copper money, she can always buy more rice and grain, and she can eat for a few more days.

After showing off the pig's feet and pig's bones wrapped in lotus leaves, Lu Xiaoyu wiped his hands with the rag on the table, and took out a slightly yellowed white cloth from the basket with his fingertips.

"Cloth? Where did the cloth come from? ”

Lu Xiaoli pounced suddenly, grabbed the white cotton cloth and shook it open, looked at it again and again, and compared it again and again, "Who bought this cloth for?" ”

She and her eldest sister had already begun to learn to do needlework, and naturally knew that such a large piece of cloth was enough for her to make a gown, and more.

However, it should still be barely possible to make a body for Xiaosi or Xiaoyu.

"Little Five bought it."

Lu Xiaoyu looked at the cloth in Lu Xiaoli's hand, and his expression became more and more proud.

This cloth is cheap to buy, it was found by Xiao Wu in someone's cloth shop, and it cost 17 yuan.

Seventeen yuan, pig's feet and pig bones cost twenty yuan.

She had never seen such a cheap cloth, and it was Xiao Si who was smart enough to fall into such a big bargain.

"How much does it cost!"

Looking at the cloth in his hand, Xiao Lidu was about to cry: "Did Xiao Si spend all the money he spent on selling zongye today?" He knew it was for his own ......"

Xiao Si is a real loser, buy such things.

"Not really."

Lu Xiaoyu interrupted Lu Xiaoli's words and snatched the white cotton cloth over: "This is for Xiao Wu, and Xiao Si said to make clothes for Xiao Wu to wear." ”

Xiao Wu hasn't worn clothes since he was born, he was wrapped in a quilt in winter, and now it's hot, and he doesn't even have a cloth on his body, and he is wrapped in a sheet all day long.

Hearing a few sisters mention him, Lu Xiaowu staggered to the edge of the bed and stood up, and screamed twice.

"What he's going to wear?" Lu Xiaoli stared at Lu Xiaowu, who was staggering and wanted to lean against the bed, "I can't even walk." ”

Lu Xiaoyu was also angry, and retorted to the second sister loudly: "If you can't walk, you don't need to wear clothes?" ”

Xiao Si said that he bought it for Xiao Wu, that is, it was bought for Xiao Wu, even if it was the second sister, she was not allowed to object.

The clothes at home, Xiaoqing wore them through Xiaoli, and Xiaocarp wore them through Xiaoyu, and they were worn in tatters and rotten, and Qiu was not willing to wear them for Xiaowu, saying that Xiaowu was still young and didn't need to wear clothes. The good cloth was dismantled and left to be patched, and the bad cloth that was about to rot was pasted and the soles were kept.

Lu Xiaoqing took the white cotton cloth handed over by Xiaoyu, unfolded it and looked at it in front of him.

The fine and dense white cotton cloth is very soft to the touch, not as prickly as coarse cloth. Three of them were bitten by rats and had urine stains, and I don't know if they could be cleaned.

Still, even so, it was the best cloth she'd ever seen.

Lu Xiaoqing measured it with his hand, five feet was enough.

This piece of cloth is pieced together to make a long-sleeved gown and pants for Xiaosi, and a short-sleeved gown and pants. However, if you make a body for Xiaosi or Xiaoyu, you can barely do it.

"Why did you buy it for little brother five?" Lu Xiaoli was not convinced.

The younger brother didn't do anything, so why buy it for him.

If you want to buy it, you should buy it for her, over the years, every time my father and mother make new clothes, they are made for the eldest sister, and then she wears what the eldest sister can't wear.

She also wants to have her own new clothes.

"Why can't you buy it for Xiao Wu?"

Lu Xiaoyu felt that the second sister was getting more and more unseemly: "Buying it for Xiao Wu is not for others to wear, Xiao Wu doesn't have any clothes yet." ”

"He's so small, what clothes he's wearing. If you buy it, you should give it to me...... My eldest sister and I bought it. ”

Lu Xiaoli's face was a little red after speaking, and he secretly glanced at the eldest sister.

She now feels more and more that her father and mother are partial, and when her mother gave birth to Xiao Wu, she didn't feel that Xiao Wu drank milk and didn't grab food with their sisters. But since Xiao Si came, she found that her father's eyes revolved around Xiao Si, and she gave Xiao Si all good things.

The family finally saved some money, and they all bought medicine for Xiaosi to cook porridge and eat.

Xiao Si and Xiao Wu are just one more chirp than her, why is her father so partial.

Pension for the elderly, she can also provide for her father, her father and mother give her rice porridge, eat cloth bag rice, she is also willing to provide for her father, why must she be four and five.

"Alright."

Lu Xiaoqing is the eldest sister, and seeing that Lu Xiaoli's temper is getting bigger and bigger, she can only remind her softly, "Let, Daddy, hear ......"

If my father and mother heard Xiao Carp talk like this, they would have to be angry.

Making clothes for Xiao Wu, not for others, why not.

"That's it, second sister, you're too stingy." Xiao Yu raised his hand to tease Xiao Wu who was trying to learn to walk next to him, "Why can't we make new clothes for Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu is our little brother, right, Xiao Wu." ”

The ignorant little five only knew how to scream "ahhhhh

Lu Xiaoli's aggrieved tears were about to fall, and when she saw that her sisters and sisters didn't help her, she was so angry that she slammed the door and walked out.

She knew that her family was the least popular with her.

She also wants to wear new clothes, why every time she makes new clothes at home, she makes them for her eldest sister, and why does she have to eat delicious food for the four and five children......

Xiaoyu looked blankly at the wooden door that was closed and bounced open, she didn't understand, why was the second sister unhappy, what a good thing she sold so much copper money today, why was the second sister still unhappy?

Never mind!

If you don't understand it, you don't want to, Xiao Yu took down her garland and showed it to Xiao Wu: "This is the wreath that your fourth brother made for me, isn't it beautiful?" ”

The colorful flowers made Xiao Wu's little hands scratch around, and the more energetic they became.

Lu Xiaoqing put the cloth in his hand on the bed and gestured back and forth, calculating how to avoid those holes and make a pair of clothes and pants.

The weather is getting hot, and Xiao Si doesn't have a decent dress yet.

Xiao Wu is still small, he grows up fast, he doesn't need to make new clothes, it is better to give this piece of cloth to Xiao Si, and when Xiao Si wears it in the future, he can also wear it to Xiao Wu.

It's not wasted that way.

However, it would be nice if the cloth was not white. Even if it's black, earthy yellow is better than white.

White clothes are not resistant to dirt after all!
