After adding water to the rice, Ruoxi and Silly Daddy found that there was no fire, so the two began to find a way to start a fire with a coal stove.

The coal stove is cylindrical in shape, with a circular vent at the bottom of the bottom, and Ruoxi puts new briquettes into the coal stove.

The two of them found scraps of paper and small wood chips, and began to make a fire like their neighbors.

Ruoxi is responsible for igniting the fire by burning paper scraps on the top of the coal stove, and Silly Daddy is responsible for fanning the air at the vent below the coal stove.

After lighting several matches, the cautious Ruoxi finally caused the fire.

She hurriedly shouted at the stupid big daddy:

"Silly daddy, fan quickly."

The stupid big daddy used the power of the wilderness to fan and fan, and after a while, a thick smoke blew out from the upper exit of the coal stove, and Ruoxi, who was choking and coughing, hurriedly covered her mouth and nose, and her face was also blackened.

The fire that was just not easy to be led out by Ruoxi was extinguished by the stupid daddy.

Ruoxi, who couldn't figure out the situation, looked at the stupid father and said:

"Silly big daddy, let's change positions, you start the fire above, and I fan the wind below."

Looking at Ruoxi, whose face was full of blackness, the silly big daddy nodded with a smile and said:

"Okay."

So, change it to a stupid daddy who ignites the fire above, and Ruoxi who fans the wind below.

Silly Daddy struck one match after another, and he didn't see Sparks when he saw that a box of matches was about to be slashed by Silly Daddy.

was so anxious that Ruoxi wanted to slap the stupid daddy's ass, and scolded in his mouth:

"Silly Daddy, you're so stupid, stupider than a pig, you can't even light a fire."

Zhao Shiniang on the side saw it, walked over with a smile, and said to the two:

"Don't worry, I'll teach you how to make a fire."

Master Zhao is Master Zhao's wife, and everyone in the tube building calls her that.

Master Zhao is a model worker in the glass factory and has brought out many apprentices, including Ruoxi's father.

Zhao Shiniang gave birth to a son and a daughter, and the daughter was born with cerebral palsy and was named Zhao Wanqing.

Zhao Wanqing always has the same smile on her face as Silly Daddy, she should be the only woman Silly Daddy has ever come into contact with in her life, and she has had a love affair with Silly Daddy that is really not love.

Zhao Shi Niang looked at Ruoxi and Silly Daddy, pointed to the coal stove and said:

"When starting a fire, you can't stuff all the confetti into it, you have to put the confetti loose so that there is air in it so that it is easy to ignite the fire."

The unworldly two nodded at the same time, with their trademark smirk.

Then, Zhao Shiniang pointed to the bottom of the coal stove and said:

"When you fan the fire, you have to take it slowly, and when you see that the fire is small, you can fan it gently, you can't use too hard, too hard will extinguish the fire, and you don't need to fan when the fire is big."

The two who seemed to understand continued to start a fire, and according to the method taught by Zhao Shiniang, the two tried many times.

In the end, the emperor lived up to his painstaking efforts, and with the continuous efforts of the two, the fire was finally lit.

Ruoxi shouted excitedly:

"Silly daddy is smarter than a pig!"

Looking at the coal stove with a good fire, the two looked at each other for a moment, and found that each other's faces were all black, and the two smiled happily and awkwardly.

The two of them, who smelled the fragrance, brought the rice off the coal stove and began to burn the only two green vegetables.

Ruoxi, who is afraid of being hot, asked the stupid daddy to fry the vegetables, and the silly daddy learned from others to fry it in style.

Unfortunately, only one of the two greens was left after being fried by the stupid big daddy, and one didn't know where it flew.

After working for a long time, Ruoxi and Silly Daddy, who were so hungry that their stomachs were growling, could finally eat the food they cooked by themselves.

Silly Big Daddy put two bowls and two chopsticks on the table.

A layer of dust fell on the table that had not been set up for several days.

When Ruoxi just lifted the lid of the pot and was about to serve rice, what she saw was a pot full of porridge, and she was so frightened that she said in a loud voice:

"Silly daddy, why did the rice turn into porridge?"

Silly Daddy stretched his neck and looked into the pot, and then looked at Ruoxi, revealing an unbelievable expression.

The two of them, who couldn't believe what was in front of them, were like petrified, and they were stunned in place for a long time.

There was no way, and the two who finally came to their senses could only drink porridge with a hard head.

Hit by the rice turning into porridge, Ruoxi, who was drinking porridge, and Silly Daddy looked at each other tentatively.

At the same time, the two of them carefully took a mouthful of green vegetables and put them in their mouths, as if they were tasting poison.

Unexpectedly, the two stretched out their salty tongues at the same time, and immediately drank the porridge smoothly.

Ruoxi spat and complained:

"I'm dead, how much salt have you grabbed?"

Silly Daddy smiled, Ruoxi stared at Silly Daddy with hatred.

So, the two of them added enough water to the salty greens to turn them into greens soup.

In this way, Ruoxi and the stupid father helplessly drank a mouthful of porridge and a mouthful of vegetable soup, and the two of them drank themselves to their heart's content.

When the two who were full of alcohol walked, they could hear the clanging sound in each other's stomachs, which made the two laugh.

Ruoxi and Silly Daddy, who learned to cook for the first time, although the two did not succeed and turned rice into porridge and fried vegetables into vegetable soup, at least the two of them could not starve.

In the following days, Ruoxi and Silly Daddy continued to grope for cooking every day.

Either today's rice is raw, or tomorrow's rice is mushy, and they haven't given up.

Whenever they failed, Ruoxi and Silly Daddy would go to Mrs. Xu next door to seek experience, and Mrs. Xu would patiently explain to them every time, as if she was teaching children in class.

It wasn't until the fragrant rice could be cooked that Ruoxi and Silly Daddy were willing to give up.

Grandma's sudden departure made the two grow a lot.

Early in the morning, it is different from the previous in Liujia Village.

In the past, Ruoxi was woken up by the sound of cicadas, birds, and roosters, but now she is woken up by the noise in the aisle and the sound of pots and pans.

The sleepy-eyed Ruoxi and the silly daddy came to the public pool, the two were brushing their teeth, and the two who showed their white teeth looked very festive.

Ruoxi lost another tooth, and the stupid daddy is still the same.

At this moment, Yao Jing walked over, she squinted at Ruoxi, and said teasingly:

"Little thing, you know what? Your father helped you find a stepmother, and your stepmother still has a younger brother, and your father doesn't want you! ”

Ruoxi was a little cramped and unnatural by Yao Jing's sudden questioning.

She lowered her head and continued to brush her teeth, not responding to Yao Jing because she didn't know what to say.

Silly Daddy was as calm as ever, he was still brushing his teeth with his teeth exposed.

Yao Jing saw the stupid daddy's calm appearance, and said to the silly daddy:

"I don't want you either! Silly big guy! ”

The silly daddy still didn't react, brushing his teeth with a smile, as if Yao Jing was talking to someone else.

Yao Jing, who couldn't find a sense of existence, was so angry that she said to herself:

"Why don't I say this to a fool, it's really playing the piano to a cow."

Zhao Shiniang, who was washing clothes on the side, saw it and said:

"How can we bother our precious 'goblins' to play the harp for the beasts? If you want to play, you will also play it for the 'goblin'! ”

Yao Jing glanced at Zhao Shiniang.

There was a burst of laughter.

Yao Jing is a female worker in a textile factory, she likes to sow discord the most, and she also likes to say that the east and west are short, and nothing can escape her mouth in the tube building, so she is called the "parrot essence" with many mouths and many tongues behind people's backs.

In addition to being nosy, Yao Jing's personality is not kind, she is a mean and bitter, soft and afraid of hard, a person who sees the wind and steers, and tends to be inflammatory.

Once, a group of children were playing in the aisle and accidentally knocked down Yao Jing's coal stove, and even the pot on the coal stove was overturned, but fortunately the children were not burned.

When the naughty children saw Yao Jing in anger, they were so frightened that they immediately fled in all directions.

Yao Jing, who was embarrassed and angry, picked soft persimmons and pinched them, chasing a lame son all over the tube building, chasing from the east end of the tube building to the west end, and from the west to the east end, chasing back and forth several times.

Bursts of cries and pantings echoed throughout the building.

The neighbors couldn't stand it anymore, and they accused her of saying:

"How can you treat a child like this, without losing your conscience?"

"It's just that he's just a kid and knows he's wrong."

"Stop, don't do evil."

"You're a child yourself."

"Parrots don't beat children like that."

••••••

Everything.

Yao Jing seemed to be enchanted, and turned a deaf ear to the advice of others.

Seeing that Yao Jing still didn't mean to stop, someone went to tell Yao Jing's husband Ren Dahai, saying that his wife was going to beat someone to death.

Seeing that more and more people gathered to condemn Yao Jing, Ren Dahai, who loved face, couldn't wait to find a hole to get into, and he couldn't wipe his face on his face, so he went up directly and slapped Yao Jing, and then grabbed Yao Jing's arm and dragged Yao Jing home.

After returning home, Yao Jing's husband slammed the door with a bang, and then there was a crackling sound.

Bursts of cries and pantings echoed throughout the building.

The difference is that this time no one stepped forward to blame.

After returning home after washing, Ruoxi echoed Yao Jing's words in her mind and pondered for a while.

Ruoxi recalled the nearest father, his father went out early and returned late every day, and when Ruoxi and Silly Daddy woke up in the morning, his father had already gone out, and when his father came back in the evening, they had fallen asleep, and the two of them couldn't see their father all day, only when they were resting, they could rarely see each other.

When the two of them first moved from Liujia Village, Ruoxi didn't feel abnormal.

It's just that in the past few days, the food supply at home has not been normal, and sometimes it will even be cut off, Ruoxi thought that his father was too busy and forgot to buy it, so he didn't pay too much attention to it.

In the next few days, when the rumors about his father and stepmother in the building became more and more frequent, and the supply of rice and vegetables at home became more and more abnormal, Ruoxi also believed the rumors more and more.

The stepmother is a worker in a textile factory, widowed, with a son, living in the northernmost corridor of the tube building, and the father has already lived in the stepmother's house, which Ruoxi learned from rumors.
