Chapter 156: Why are children so noisy
As soon as the woman saw a large piece of meat on Ah Sheng's shoulder, her whole face changed.
"Ah Sheng, where did you get the meat?"
Ah Sheng was very happy now, he didn't care about talking to her, he just shouted, "Mother, come and help me, I can't take it."
The woman reacted, and hurriedly stepped forward to help take down the meat, and also twisted Ah Sheng's ears, "Say, where did you get so much meat?"
"Mother, it hurts...... You let me go first!" Ah Sheng cried out in pain.
It can be seen that the woman is using a lot of strength, and Ah Sheng has no time to explain.
He looked at Meng Zhiyi, who was sitting in the main room, pleadingly, hoping that she could explain.
And Meng Zhiyi raised his eyebrows, little brat, let you call me a beggar!
However, it was enough for him to stand it after screwing it for so long.
Meng Zhiyi said loudly, "That meat was bought with the silver I gave."
The woman was stunned for a moment, and also let go of the hand that was twisting Ah Sheng's ear.
Seeing this, Ah Sheng hurriedly rubbed his ears, because his ears were frozen, and he was twisted so hard, it would hurt so hotly.
"Mother, it's the silver she gave."
The woman reacted and slapped Ah Sheng's shoulder, "How can you just ask for someone else's silver? How many times has my mother told you that you can't ask for other people's things."
"Didn't she give us the money for the night......" Ah Sheng felt that he was not wrong.
She gave Meng Zhiyi a place to rest and she gave herself silver. That's not all the business in the inn.
"You're still talking!" The woman slapped in again.
Meng Zhiyi touched his empty stomach and sighed, "Can you make some meat for me first?" I'm really hungry."
Woman: "......"
Meng Zhiyi softened his eyebrows, "I haven't eaten meat for a long time."
Ah Sheng also nodded, "Mother, you go and do it quickly!" I want to eat braised pork."
The woman expressed her embarrassment, but looking at the two pitiful faces, she had to take the meat to the kitchen.
Meng Zhiyi and Ah Sheng glanced at each other, and both of them looked like greedy cats.
Ah Sheng walked in and saw a fire next to Meng Zhiyi's legs, and immediately jumped up, "You still let my mother make a fire for you?" We don't have firewood left, that's all, what will we eat in the future? How are we going to spend this winter?"
Meng Zhiyi: Why is a "......" child so noisy? I don't know if her child will be like this baby in the future.
"I'm not cold. How much silver do you have left?" Meng Zhiyi changed the subject.
Ah Sheng immediately covered his pocket, "You said this was for me!"
"What is given to you is yours, and I won't rob it, what are you excited about?"
Ah Sheng still looked at Meng Zhiyi vigilantly.
Meng Zhiyi: "I mean, you can buy some firewood and put it at home in the future, now you don't have silver."
Ah Sheng thought for a moment and shook his head, "This silver can buy my mother a padded jacket as thick as the one you wear." It's not enough to buy a bed and quilt......
It's pitiful.
"Alright, alright......
Meng Zhiyi was about to speak, when he smelled the fragrance of meat.
The eyes of one big and one small immediately lit up and looked at the kitchen.
And the woman moved very quickly, and soon served a large pot full of braised pork.
"I'm really sorry, my family doesn't ......" sensible.
Before the woman finished speaking, she saw that Meng Zhiyi and Ah Sheng had already begun to grab it.
Woman: "...... Slow down, I've done a lot."
Ah Sheng's mouth was stuffed with meat, "Mother, don't say it, eat it quickly, it's going to be out of meat."
Meng Zhiyi was also busy eating meat, but he didn't forget to nod.
The woman hadn't eaten meat for a long time, and looking at the appearance of the two of them, she also sandwiched a small piece and ate it.
It's delicious!
Meng Zhiyi's meal is really a long time away
Appetite is great and food is satisfied.
I don't know if it's hungry or hungry these days, I feel that the woman's craftsmanship is even better than the chefs she invited in the house.
All in all, it's so cool.
"Hiccup."
Meng Zhiyi and Ah Sheng hugged their stomachs, and they hiccuped heavily.
There was still some meat left in the pot, Meng Zhiyi glanced at the cabbage in the woman's bowl, snatched the bowl in her hand, and directly buckled it into the pot of braised pork.
Meng Zhiyi said, "The rest is yours, eat it clean."
"Yes, mother, you didn't eat meat."
"I ate ......," the woman looked at the meat in the bowl in distress. She thought that if there was any meat leftover, she could keep it for Ah Sheng to eat for a few days.
"Eat, and." Meng Zhiyi comforted.
Under the urging of Meng Zhiyi, the woman finally ate the remaining braised pork.
"Mother, isn't it delicious?" Ah Sheng licked his mouth.
The woman nodded, "Delicious, delicious." A somewhat choked tone.
This family not only had nothing to eat, but also slept without a quilt. The mother and son were only wrapped in a shabby quilt.
Meng Zhiyi couldn't stand it.
"Buy some quilts and come back!" Meng Zhiyi proposed.
The woman looked at the house, there was indeed not much room to sleep, thought for a while and said, "Otherwise, you and Ah Sheng will go and get some hay again."
"I don't like your quilt either."
The woman was even more embarrassed and stood still and did not speak.
Ah Sheng kept looking outside, and when he was full, he wanted to go out to play, "Mother, I want to see the fireworks."
"Go ahead." The woman nodded.
So Meng Zhiyi also went out with him. But as soon as she went out, she asked Ah Sheng to take her to buy two new quilts and come back, as well as new cotton clothes, and two carts of firewood.
Everyone can't sleep so early during the Chinese New Year, and everyone is familiar with Ah Sheng when they see Ah Sheng, and they know that Ah Sheng's family has a boarder, and they bought a lot of things, and everyone is also positive.
They are all neighbors, and they all know that Ah Sheng's father is gone, and they are very sympathetic to their family, and now there is someone who can help, and everyone is willing to do something to do with their hands.
The woman didn't expect Meng Zhiyi to be so generous, and Meng Zhiyi didn't expect that the firewood and quilts in this half of the yard were not used for ten taels of silver, which shows the poverty of ordinary people's families.
Heat the kang head, use the new quilt, and sleep very comfortably. Chinese Net
Meng Zhiyi and Ah Sheng slept beautifully, but the woman has always been nervous.
Early the next morning.
Meng Zhiyi woke up from the quilt and found that Ah Sheng and the woman had already woken up, got dressed and walked out to take a look, there was actually a white expanse outside, the heavy snow fell quietly all night last night, and the ice edges under the eaves were as long as an arm.
"Girl, are you awake? Wash it in hot water, and we'll eat right away."
"Happy New Year!"
As soon as the woman's voice fell, Ah Sheng's voice sounded, and there was a snowball along with his voice.
Meng Zhiyi was defenseless and was smashed on the shoulder.
"Haha, I hit you!" Ah Sheng laughed happily.
Meng Zhiyi raised his eyebrows, and with one hand, he also pinched the snow ball on the ground, "Okay, you Ah Sheng, dare to sneak attack me." See me take revenge!" She also immediately stuffed a snowball into Ah Sheng's neck.
One big and one small chased each other in the yard and had a snowball fight.
Breakfast is a dumpling made by a woman who gets up early, although there is not much meat, but the taste is still okay.
Meng Zhiyi was sweating just now, and he will eat another bowl of dumplings, and he will be refreshed.
"It's snowing so hard outside."
While eating, Ah Sheng looked outside in surprise.
Meng Zhiyi also found out that it began to snow heavily again.
How can you get there?
"Can you hire a carriage now?" Meng Zhiyi asked.
The woman said, "I don't think so. Looking at the momentum of this snow, it is estimated that it will not stop, and it is still falling so much, the snow on the road is too thick to walk."
Meng Zhiyi tightened his brows.
The woman asked, "Girl, where are you in a hurry?" Why don't you stay with me for a few days before you leave?"
Meng Zhiyi didn't refuse, but he didn't agree either.
The snow seemed to be deliberately against her, and it fell for three days in a row, and the snow on the ground was several feet thick.
Meng Zhiyi is quite comfortable staying here, although Ah Sheng speaks atimidly, but Meng Zhiyi can play with him.
When it was time to leave, Ah Sheng was still a little reluctant.
"I've wrapped buns and cakes for you, and the snacks are all packed, you remember to eat them."
The woman has also been uneasy to instruct.
"Uncle, slow down, you must send people." The woman instructed the coachman again.
"Ah Shengniang, don't worry, it's okay, I'll definitely deliver it."
After all, Meng Zhiyi gave so much silver.
Ah Sheng stood aside and looked at Meng Zhiyi in the carriage, a little reluctant, "Can you do it alone? Don't be a beggar again."
Meng Zhiyi twitched the corners of his mouth.
She doesn't care about children.
"It's okay, it's cold, you can go back too." Meng Zhiyi beckoned to the mother and son.
Ah Sheng asked again, "Then do you still come to play with me?"
"If you have the chance, you will come."
"Thank you, I ......"
What she always wanted to say was that Meng Zhiyi quietly gave her a hundred taels of silver last night.
In just a few days of living here, she bought a lot of firewood, quilts, cotton clothes, and meat, which was enough for their mother and son to survive this winter, but she didn't expect her to give so much.
This silver is enough for their mother and son to spend for a lifetime.
"Thank you, I also thank you and Ah Sheng for taking me in, otherwise I would have frozen to death. When I find my relatives, I will definitely see you when I have the opportunity to come back."
"Okay." Mother and son nodded in unison.
The carriage was not moving very fast, and after two days' journey, it met a wave of people fleeing for their lives.
The driver hurriedly inquired about the situation.
"There's a rebel army in the town over there, so don't go to the front."
The coachman was shocked, "Girl, you can't go ahead."
"Then we'll turn around and go the other way."
"Okay."
In such weather, the ground is either snowflakes or muddy, and the trail is even more difficult to walk.
The carriage had not traveled far before it sank into the mud, and the wheels could not be pulled out at all.
Meng Zhiyi also came down to push, but it was still to no avail.
The driver was also very anxious, "What can I do about this? I don't know if those rebels will come, and they can't stay in this place for too long."
Meng Zhiyi was also very irritable, now there were at least eight days to go from Kyoto, and it was uncomfortable to ride in a carriage, but it was even more uncomfortable without a carriage.
Meng Zhiyi thought for a while, "Uncle, if you can't go back, I bought your horses and carriages, and I will give you the reward."
"You, you're driving your own carriage?"
"I don't want the carriage, I'll ride a horse."
The coachman was a little reluctant.
