Chapter 2: Second Sister
Jiang Zhenwu is the only seedling Miao man in the second room of the Jiang family, and he is only eight years old now, and his skin is very solid.
Some of the hot porridge spilled, Jiang Yuzhu was distressed to death, and poured some into Jiang Yuzhu's hand, and Jiang Yuzhu was not willing to waste it at all.
Jiang Zhenwu smelled the aroma of rice porridge, almost drooled without hunger, and poked his head to look at the bowl in Jiang Yuzhu's hand.
Jiang Yuzhu wanted to teach him a lesson, but when she thought of the two cents given by her second aunt, she couldn't help it.
Mrs. Li had already returned to the house, there was no figure of her in the yard, and the yard looked empty, only the snort of pigs and the triumphant "clucking" of chickens after laying eggs.
Jiang Yuzhu put the bowl into the house, the door was not closed, and then like a thief, he took out the eggs that the hen had just laid from the chicken coop.
The egg was still hot, Jiang Yuzhu held it in her hand and hurried back to the house.
Not surprisingly, I heard the sound of Mrs. Li going out and scolding.
The door was kicked by duang and duang, and Jiang Xinyu was afraid that the dilapidated wooden door would fall apart.
Mrs. Li scolded very badly, to the effect that Jiang Xinyu, a mourning star and a money-losing product, did not deserve to eat her eggs.
In these years, eggs are more expensive, you can take them to the supply and marketing cooperatives to sell them for money, you can also exchange them for some needles, threads, brain oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, other people's families have happy events, and it is a good gift to take three eggs to the door.
The chickens raised by each family are not for eating, and no one is willing to eat them until the New Year, but they are all used for money and goods. It can be said that eggs are an important source of income for the family.
When Jiang Yuzhu went out to quarrel with Mrs. Li, and then went to Li Fugui's house to serve porridge, Jiang Xinyu's mind flooded with a large amount of the original Jiang Xinyu's memory.
Jiang Xinyu still has a headache until now, but she knows Jiang Yuzhu in front of her.
This is Jiang Yuzhu, the second sister of the original owner.
Jiang Yuzhu was wearing gray patched clothes, and the whole person was very thin, and her face and plates were all thin into melon seed faces.
Mrs. Li scolded and kicked the door at the door, and what she said was unbearable, Jiang Yuzhu had lived for twenty-three years, and she had never seen an old lady more pungent than Mrs. Li.
I don't know that I thought that Jiang Xinyu and Jiang Yuzhu dug up her family's ancestral grave, instead of just taking an egg.
Jiang Yuzhu directly beat the egg into the rice porridge and stirred it with chopsticks, and soon, the egg turned into a yellow egg flower.
The bowl with the rice porridge was still open, and it didn't look so clean, and when it was brought to Jiang Xinyu, the smell of eggs came to the nostrils.
"Little sister, eat it while it's hot, sweat after drinking, just cover it."
Looking at Jiang Yuzhu's earnest red eyes, Jiang Xinyu felt a lot in her heart.
The original owner, Jiang Xinyu, jumped into the river last night, and it should have burned down before she arrived.
She was extremely hungry in her belly, her stomach was gurgling, her whole body was burning and weak, she sat up and leaned against the wall, Jiang Xinyu took a bowl and drank half of the rice soup boiled out of rice oil, leaving half of it thick for Jiang Yuzhu.
"Sister, you drink too."
Jiang Yuzhu thought that it would be difficult for her to call a stranger "sister", but she didn't expect that it would be easy to speak out.
She could feel Jiang Yuzhu's love for Jiang Xinyu.
She didn't know how she got here, whether she was dreaming or what, according to the posture of the truck crashing over, there was a high chance that she and Chen Yi would not survive.
Now she has become Jiang Xinyu of the Wuli Village Brigade of the Red Star Commune in 1976, so where is Chen Yi?
Jiang Yuzhu didn't want to take the bowl, others had a fever, and her face became redder and redder, but the girl was miserable, and even the flesh that blamed herself these days had fallen a lot, and her thin chin was sharp, and her eyes were big.
"I drank too much, I want to vomit, you can eat, it's a waste not to eat."
Jiang Yuzhu still refused to eat, "Wait for the evening, I'll give you a hot one, add some water and boil it again, this rice raises people, you just need to make up for it." ”
There are a total of 17 people living in Jiang's courtyard, and they can't eat rice twice a year.
Jiang Xinyu felt this complicated in her heart.
Before the car accident, she didn't have to worry about eating and drinking, and even the dogs she raised bought very expensive dog food, meat and various snacks, but now, a small bowl of rice soup has become the most expensive thing.
"Sister, you eat!" Jiang Xinyu accentuated her tone, Jiang Yuzhu in front of her obviously looked malnourished, her hair was yellow, she was not the original owner, and she couldn't lie down and eat the fine grain that Jiang Yuzhu didn't know how to get with peace of mind.
Jiang Yuzhu licked her dry lips, but she couldn't resist Jiang Xinyu, she was really hungry, and she was hungry, so she had to drink the thick rice soup clean, and there was not a grain of rice left.
After drinking, Jiang Yuzhu drank two more pills with hot water, and the whole person began to sweat.
Jiang Yuzhu brought her parents' quilts and put them on her.
The quilt has been covered for many years, and the cotton in it has long been in a clump, and the cover feels damp and heavy, not fluffy and soft at all.
Jiang Yuzhu covered her with only one head exposed, patted the quilt and said: "Little sister, Dad's death has nothing to do with you, if you want to blame our grandmother, don't think about doing stupid things anymore." ”
"Our mother should be back soon, and when she comes back, someone will call the shots for us. Eldest sister, I didn't tell her about you jumping into the river, after she gave birth, she had to take care of the child and work, and it was not a matter to run back at both ends in the past three days. ”
Jiang Yuzhu chattered, Jiang Xinyu drank the medicine, and from time to time the medicine came up, the whole person was drowsy, and finally closed her eyes.
Jiang Xinyu thought to herself, when she woke up again, it would be good if it was just a dream in front of her.
Jiang Yuzhu saw that she was asleep, got up and went to Li Fugui's house.
The Jiang family's own people didn't help the two sisters when her father died and her mother went home to visit relatives, but Uncle Li and Aunt Cui were willing to help them without relatives and no reason, Jiang Yuzhu was naturally extremely grateful.
Jiang Yuzhu went to Li Fugui's house, swept the yard of his house, and went to the forest belt to pick up firewood and carry it back.
It was also a coincidence that she also picked up a nest of seven wild eggs, which was just used to thank Aunt Cui.
Uncle Li and Aunt Cui helped her, and they didn't think about asking her to repay anything, if they wanted to reciprocate, it was also with Chen Xiuyun, an adult. can't stand Jiang Yuzhu is really sensible, she helped her, what she did was really ironing.
Jiang Xinyu was lying groggy on the bed, and her dreams were full of the original owner's experience in the countryside in the past seventeen years, and the village became lively.
"Widow Wang, Widow Wang, your Chen Yi fell when he was learning to drive a tractor at the agricultural airport, and he was sent to the health center, go and take a look."
Half of the people in the village heard the loud shouting, and they came out to see the excitement.
When the widow was tidying up the pigsty, her legs went limp.
The members outside are gossiping.
"How can I still have problems learning to drive a tractor?"
"At the beginning, the captain recommended Chen Yi to learn to drive a tractor, and you still talked nonsense, now it's okay, I didn't expect an accident, right?"
"I don't know where it hurts, does it matter?"
…
After the widow Wang recovered, she rushed out of the pigsty in the courtyard, and went to the commune's health center without caring to close the courtyard door.
