Chapter 10: It's clear that you're suspicious of her
Hua Xi coaxed his grandfather for a long time, and repeatedly promised not to divorce, which calmed the old man down.
It was getting late, and she immediately went out for dinner.
Hua Xi also checked the rice jar and realized that it was an honor for the mouse to patronize her house.
The rice bowl was empty, not a single grain of rice.
Hua Xi turned over all the grain bags at home again, not to mention rice and white flour, coarse grains and bran could not be found.
"Grandpa, is there no rice at home?" Hanaki asked as she entered the room.
Hua Yong was also embarrassed, "You have sold out all the rice at home, and if you want to eat rice and white noodles, you will have to wait until the end of the year." ”
Hua Xi bit her lip, feeling very uncomfortable. Before the summer, the year's grain was lost by the original owner, and the production team had to distribute the grain until the end of the year, how would the grandfather live.
"Xi'er, there are still some potatoes in the house, you can cook a few potatoes for grandpa, if you don't like to eat, grandpa still has a few cents in his hand, you go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy some oilfruits to eat."
As he spoke, the old man pulled out a few cents from under the dilapidated kang mat.
Two two corners, one corner, and yellow, yellow, green, and green cents, looking at a bunch, there are actually not much.
She really hasn't seen this kind of money for many years, in modern society, people don't even carry their wallets when they buy things, and one hundred and fifty picks of cash are rare, not to mention cash in units of "corners" and "cents".
Hua Yong stuffed all the money in his hand into his granddaughter's hand, as if he was afraid that his granddaughter would be angry, and carefully explained: "Grandpa has all this left this month." ”
"You buy something to eat first, and when grandpa's pension comes down next month, grandpa will buy you meat, fruit boxes, and your favorite canned peaches!"
Hua Xi took the money and wanted to give herself a few big pockets!
She shoved the money back into her grandfather's hand and walked out without looking back.
"Grandpa, I love potatoes the most, let's have a potato dinner today!"
She walked into the yard and came to the lower house that her grandfather had said, which was actually a small room where things were stacked, except for some rusty farm tools, which were potatoes all over the ground.
A lot of potatoes are planted in the village every year, and they will be distributed proportionally to grandpa, because grandpa is a veteran of the battlefield and is given special care for dozens of catties.
And the original Huaxi didn't look down on these potatoes, she was pampered by rice and white flour since she was a child, and she ate all the pension food that her grandfather allocated every year, and she also spent her grandfather's monthly pension.
It is precisely because of her profligacy and eye-to-eye that these rustic potatoes have been preserved, allowing grandpa to use them as food to continue his life.
It is precisely because of long-term malnutrition that grandpa will become worse and sick.
Hua Xi scolded the original owner angrily in her heart, and then squatted down and picked out a few big potatoes and hugged them into her arms.
After tonight, she will never let her grandfather eat potatoes again, and she will definitely find a way to cure her grandfather's illness!
Hua Xi threw the potatoes into the pot and steamed them, considering that his grandfather was old and had poor digestion, he smashed the potatoes with a rolling pin and turned them into mashed potatoes, and put some water in the pot to stew them into a paste.
She found the only small half jar of lard left in the rack, scooped a large spoonful and put it in the mashed potatoes, and soon the mashed potatoes mixed with the spice came out of the fragrance.
After the mashed potatoes were stewed, Hua Xi sprinkled a handful of green onions to enhance the flavor before leaving the pot, and then put a big bowl and brought it into the house to his grandfather first.
"Grandpa, it's time to eat."
Hua Xi put the kang table early, wiped the table clean, put the large porcelain bowl of mashed potatoes on it, and she hurriedly found a spoon for her grandfather.
Looking at the busy Hua Xi, Hua Yong held the big porcelain bowl in his hand, and his eyes were red.
This is the first time his granddaughter has taken such care of him.
"Xi'er, you eat too, don't be busy, you can come and eat too."
"Okay, I'll stay with Grandpa."
Hua Xi heard her grandfather's call and walked in with her mashed potatoes. Compared with the No. 2 bowl in Hua Yong's hand, she was holding a small bowl in her hand.
It's not that she doesn't want to eat, but she doesn't dare to eat it, she has more than 200 catties of meat on her body, and she has to diet every day in the future.
As soon as Hua Xi sat down, Hua Yong sighed when he looked at the small rice bowl in his granddaughter's hand, "It's all grandpa's fault, and now he can't go out to work because he's sick, and he doesn't have much money in his hand, so you can't even eat a good mouth." ”
Hua Yong thought that his granddaughter was not used to eating, and he felt a little guilty.
"Grandpa, what do you say, this is already very good."
"Nonsense, where is it good. You've followed me since I was a child, can I not know? ”
"My Xi'er's favorite food is white noodles and big steamed buns, which can eat six or seven in one meal. Now he wants to eat potatoes with me, an old man, it's all grandpa's fault. ”
Hanaxi: "......"
A meal of six or seven hundred-sided steamed buns? Wouldn't it be more than twenty a day!
No wonder she wants to cry to death with more than 200 catties of meat on her body now.
Hua Xi gritted her teeth and said to her grandfather: "Grandpa, from now on, I will never eat white flour steamed buns again!" I want to lose weight! ”
Hua Yong knew that his granddaughter was comforting him, sighed, scooped a spoonful of mashed potatoes and ate it into his mouth.
Then, he froze.
Hua Xi also took a bite of mashed potatoes, looked at her grandfather's appearance, and asked a little worriedly, "Grandpa, what's wrong with you, is it unappetizing?" ”
Hua Yong hurriedly raised his head and looked at his granddaughter with a smile, his eyes full of relief: "It has to be made by my granddaughter, which is much better than what I made as a bad old man. ”
After the old man finished speaking, he scooped a big spoonful and put it in his mouth, which was full of denseness, and let him watch his granddaughter smirk while eating.
Hanaki was amused by her grandfather's appearance, and she also smiled and began to eat.
Both grandparents and grandchildren are experiencing eating with relatives for the first time, the old man is because his granddaughter refused to get close to him before, and Hua Xi was an orphan in his last life, and he usually has no friends.
During a meal, the grandparents and grandchildren talked and laughed, and the full happiness lingered in the dilapidated hut for the first time.
After dinner, Hua Xi packed up the house inside and out and went out to exercise.
It's not so much about exercise as it is about walking.
This body is so fat that just walking has made her out of breath, and with a weight of more than 200 pounds, it is difficult for her knees to bear the pressure when she runs.
She could only walk as fast as she could, but after walking for a while, she began to sweat profusely.
Hua Xi raised her hand and wiped her head, gritting her teeth and insisting.
As the weather warmed up, most of the people in the village sat around the gate of the house after dinner, and everyone talked together.
So when everyone watched Hua Xi walk outside, they all shut up and stared at her curiously when they thought of what happened in the afternoon.
This delicious and lazy fat girl, what is this for?
Hua Xi walked around the village twice, but she couldn't stand everyone's eyes, and walking on the flat ground had no effect, Hua Xi gritted her teeth and walked towards the back mountain.
Walking on the ramp must be more exhausting, she wants to lose weight, she must lose weight as soon as possible!
At the foot of the mountain, as she walked towards the distant mountain road, behind her, a figure walked out from the other side of the woods in the shadows.
The man stared at Hanaxi's direction towards the deep mountain, and his thin lips pursed into a straight line.
