Chapter 43: Shrimp
At that time, a gust of night wind blew, and Xiao Lu Yao, who was a little cool, woke up in a daze.
Rubbing his big confused eyes, he first looked around the humble house in a panic, and when he saw the familiar figure, he felt at ease, and then he smelled a smell of meat, put on shoes that did not fit the size, walked to the busy sister Lu Qing and asked curiously:
"Sister, it's so fragrant, what are you doing?"
Seeing that her sister woke up, Lu Qing gently turned her head and said, "We have meat to eat tonight." ”
"Ah, really, sister."
It's just a five or six-year-old child, how can anyone who doesn't like meat dishes, as soon as he heard that there was meat to eat tonight, a pair of innocent big eyes instantly lit up a little, and his voice revealed joy and asked his sister.
"Sister didn't lie to Yaoyao, although I didn't borrow chicken legs, but, look."
Looking at his sister's expectant and surprised eyes, Lu Qing turned around and brought out two bowls of hot rice, one of which was covered with fat prawns, which were steaming slightly.
Looking at the red and clear fat shrimp, Xiao Lu Yao secretly swallowed his saliva, and asked Lu Qing suspiciously: "Sister, can we eat these shrimps, don't we need to exchange them for more rice with uncles and aunts?" ”
Lu Qing rubbed her sister's soft hair and shook her head: "No, these shrimps are our distant ones." ”
After listening to his sister's words, Xiao Lu Yao couldn't help but smile brightly after all, no matter how sensible he was, he was just a five or six-year-old child, he followed his sister all day long, only some overnight leftovers were barely satisfied, and his father and mother were still fine, and he could eat meat every three or five times a week to satisfy his hunger, since his mother died, Xiao Lu Yao didn't remember how long he hadn't eaten meat, and Xiao Lu Yao didn't dare to ask or be greedy for the shrimp that his sister caught. Because Xiao Lu Yao knew that this was her sister's going to exchange rice with the uncle and aunt next door, and it was not her own.
But this time, seeing his sister nodding and saying that she could eat it, Xiao Lu Yao, who had been hungry for these prawns for a long time, couldn't help cheering, and took her sister's little hand to sit on the wooden table with one side high and one low, and picked the seven shrimp in her bowl one by one into her sister's bowl, leaving only two smaller shrimp in her bowl, and said to Lu Qing with a smile:
"Yaoyao is still young, just eat two."
Other children of the same age are still in the stage of protecting food, but children without fathers and mothers already know how to look at people's faces and live contentedly, Lu Qing looked at this sensible sister and shook his head: "Sister is not hungry, eat from afar." ”
After speaking, he sandwiched the shrimp into Xiao Lu Yao's bowl.
"Huh? Sister eats. ”
"No, eat it from afar."
The two of you pushed me, and finally the two sisters looked at each other and smiled.
"Cluck, cluck.."
"If you push it down, the shrimp will be cold, so let's eat it together, sister."
"Good~"
Then Xiao Lu Yao peeled a shrimp for his sister, and he sucked the fishy smell on the shrimp head, and smiled his eyes into a crescent moon with satisfaction, Lu Qing also peeled a few shrimp and sandwiched them into his sister's bowl, the two sisters just like this, and they had the most wonderful dinner, although these seven shrimps were simply scalded with water, without oil or salt, but in Xiao Lu Yao's heart, these shrimps are the best delicious food in the world.
After the meal, the two sisters hugged each other tightly and lay on the dilapidated bed, looking at the leaky window, Xiao Lu Yao asked, "Sister, Xiao Yao is so happy today." ”
Looking down at his sister in his arms, Lu Qing tightened his clasped hands and said softly, "Why." ”
"Because I'm with my sister, because we ate meat, because we're full, Xiao Yao wants to be with my sister all the time."
Lu Yao looked at his sister with light eyes.
"Well, we'll always be together, my sister is here, let's go to sleep soon.."
"Hmm."
Looking up at his tired sister, Xiao Lu Yao closed his eyes obediently.
Not far from where the two sisters were already asleep, in the dead of night, a down-and-out middle-aged man sneakily led a group of people into the village, pointed to the house where the two sisters were located to a richly dressed squire with a big belly behind him, and said:
"Master Zheng, those two sisters are in that house now, you see..."
After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he looked at this rich fat man with a sneer, and the big-bellied eight-character beard looked at the down-and-out middle-aged man with disdain: "What are you anxious about, naturally you have to wait for me to inspect the goods to know how the condition is, rest assured, you are naturally indispensable." ”
After speaking, he waved his hand and took seven or eight vicious family members to the residence of the two sisters, and the down-and-out middle-aged man just nodded his head again and again, and he did not follow in together, but hid in a dark place and observed silently.
Just as the two tired little bodies were immersed in sleep, the dilapidated door was violently kicked open.
Bang!
A loud noise in the middle of the night scared the sleeping two sisters to wake up instantly, two little faces looked at this group of wolf-like intruders, and the younger sister Lu Yao looked at these evil servants with big eyes in horror, and held her sister tightly with both hands and didn't dare to let go for a moment.
And Lu Qing was also taken aback by the loud noise, looking at this group of fierce servants who broke into the door, they were also pale with fright, but in order to appease their panicked sister, they still pretended to be calm and asked in a trembling voice: "Who are you?" Why break into our homes for no reason? ”
Hearing this crisp voice like a yellow warbler, the eyes of the rich eight-character beard instantly lit up, and he raised the lamp and leaned forward, only to see two handsome little faces that I saw pitiful everywhere the light went, and I couldn't help but be overjoyed:
"That old boy really didn't lie to us, both of these are high-quality goods, master, I really picked up a treasure, hahahahaha."
Lu Qing's face changed suddenly, and he said loudly in a fierce voice, "What are you going to do?" Our dad will be back in a while, and if we don't leave, we will report to the official! ”
Fu Zihu snorted disdainfully: "Do you know that your father has sold you to me, and now you are my people, report to the official?" ”
After speaking, Lu Qing shook the paper in his hand in disbelief: "Do you know what this thing is?" Is it the note that your father sold me and reported it to the official? Hmph, it's useless even if the king of heaven Lao Tzu comes, from now on, you two sisters are my people, you know, hahahahaha. ”
Listening to the words of the rich Bazihu, Lu Qing, whose faith collapsed, burst into tears in an instant, and shouted with all his might: "I don't believe it, I don't believe that Daddy will sell us, you lied to me, you must have deceived us!" ”
Seeing his sister's collapse crying, Xiao Lu Yao, who was hiding in his sister's arms, also cried for some reason:
"Woo woo, sister, I'm afraid."
Hearing his sister's cry, Lu Qing hugged Lu Yao's hand and couldn't help but tighten and didn't say anything, just looked at these uninvited guests coldly.
"Hmph, I can't help you not believe it, the white paper and black paper are here, it's useless for the king of heaven to come, kidnap it!"
