A little closer, wisps of smoke came out of the chimney. Is Xiao Mulan burning the fire?

I thought a lot in my heart, but my face was silent, and I helped Old Man Mu slowly into the dilapidated room. Xiao Mulan, who was supposed to be lying on the bed at home to recuperate, was adding firewood in front of the low stove, it seemed that she was going to cook.

Mu Fan felt a little astringent in his heart, an eight-year-old child should be in school in modern times, spoiled in the arms of his relatives, or when he went out to play with his friends. What's more, it's Xiao Mulan, who is so weak.

And the little Mulan in front of her was laboriously stuffing firewood into the stove for cooking, when she heard the sound and raised her head, she saw someone coming, and a sweet voice sounded: "Grandpa, sister, you are back, hehe." The sharp little tiger teeth were exposed, which was very cute, and there were black marks on the white face, which made the face even more pale.

When Old Man Mu saw this scene, he walked over quickly and helped Mu Lan up: "Why are you up, it's not good to lie down, and you're still cooking, are you hungry?" Mu Fan looked at the old man who was obviously very angry but spoke softly to Mu Lan, and felt distressed.

Mu Fan looked at these, then stepped forward, gently wiped the black marks on Mulan's face, and patted her little head: "Good, go out and sit with grandpa for a while, my sister will cook, just take a while." ”

"Mulan, you go out first, grandpa and your sister have a few words." The old man spoke gently.

Mulan nodded obediently, smiled mischievously at her sister Mu Fan, and slowly walked out. Yes, Mulan can't play, jump and run like children of the same age, and her emotions can't fluctuate too much, because her heart won't be able to stand it.

"Mu Fan, wait for dinner, let's go to your third uncle's house, you have to be obedient and obedient in the past, don't mess around." The old man just said this, and went out without waiting for Mu Fan to answer. But the moment she turned around, Mulan clearly saw that the old man's brows were tightly locked, and the whole person exuded a thick sense of sorrow and unease.

The old man who went out sighed, and a thin murmur drifted into her ears, "The entire Qingshui Village, everything that can be borrowed has been there, and no one is willing to lend me money for this bad old man." Even Mu Lin, alas, two pennies, is a drop in the bucket. Mu Yuan's family is the last hope, old woman, you can bless me."

Mu Fan began to recall the situation of the third uncle's family.

Mu Yuan, Mu Fan's third uncle, but Mulan said that although the third uncle's life is good, people are extremely stingy, no, just this third uncle, that is the so-called iron rooster that does not pull out a hair.

Mu Fan felt that the possibility of borrowing money was not high. But I can't tell Old Man Mu clearly. In particular, there is a third aunt, and the faint Mu Fan can recall that the third aunt is delicate and beautiful. He has a good reputation in the village, and everyone praises his kindness.

Xiao Mulan complained to her: several times I heard their third aunt tell others bad things about her sister in the village, and what she said was very ugly, and Mulan went forward to theorize and failed, but was said by the long-tongued woman in the village to say that there is a sister, and there is a sister who is as annoying as her sister. Such words made Mulan very sad.

Mu Fan analyzed what her sister Xiao Mulan told her and the meager impression in her mind that the third aunt was a person with a relatively good city.

Because every time Mulan goes to theorize, she can always fool others into a daze with a few words, the woman said that her third aunt has worked hard for Mu Fan, and then pretends to be weak, crying a few times, coupled with her already soft appearance, it can always make people feel a little pity, and feel that the Mu Fan sisters don't know what to do. The bad guy became Mulan, and Mu Fan was the bigger bad guy. The corners of Mu Fan's mouth twitched slightly.

The water in the pot boiled, and Mu Fan retracted his thoughts. Alas, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and she is also very helpless. There was only a little yellow flour in the small kitchen, and Gu Mufan guessed that it should be corn flour. It's like rice, and I don't eat anything else, and I don't have any flavorings, and by the way, there's a little bit of leftover vegetables from the last time I went to the garden.

After struggling for a while, Mu Fan finally had to mix the corn flour with the cut vegetables, put the remaining salt in it, and boiled a pot of vegetable corn paste and brought it out. The three grandparents gathered around a small old wooden table, sandwiched a little pickle and began to eat the mush. They didn't say a word to each other, and quickly finished the meal, and Mu Fan quickly put away the dishes and chopsticks.

Grandpa Mu was very pleased with Mu Fan's change, and Xiao Mulan also looked at her sister Mu Fan happily, only staring at her uncomfortably: "Lan'er, you stay at home alone, and my grandfather and I will go to the third uncle's house." ”

"Yes, Mulan is obediently at home, and we will be back in a while." Grandpa Mu gently touched Mulan's little head. Mulan knew what her grandfather and sister were going to do, and she responded obediently.

The old man looked back at Mu Fan; "Mu Fan, let's go, go and come back quickly." The brows are still tightly locked, as if Old Man Mu's brows have been frowning from time to time since she came to this world.

Although Mu Fan said that she could solve things, Grandpa Mu didn't believe it, and Fan respected Grandpa Mu and was willing to accompany him to the old man's house. Therefore, this trip to Mu Fan's third uncle's house is essential.

The ancestors and grandsons went out again, this time in the direction of Mu Fan's third uncle's house, as for the result, it is still unknown.
