In the cold of winter, snowflakes are falling silently from the sky......

The snow kept falling, the cold wind swept away, and everywhere you looked, there was a vast snow-white ......

The sky was hazy, and there was a sound of rustling in the small and crowded courtyard.

"Hurry up, what are you doing!"

Li's voice, through a thin wall, can clearly hear her annoying emotions.

"Here we are..."

Immediately after that, the voice of Hua Qiyuan sounded.

"Bang!"

The noisy and noisy courtyard soon regained its quietness.

Hua Shi in the house, after being woken up early, has been waiting for Li Shi and Hua Ci to go out soon.

After the courtyard was calm now, she pricked up her ears again and listened to the small sound outside the courtyard gate.

The clatter of the wheels over the snow faded away......

"Whew...... It's always gone. ”

Hanasaki exhaled lightly and muttered in a low voice.

Twelve days had passed since that day, and she had barely been out of the room during that time.

In the first few days, Li was quiet and didn't make any noise, until her back injury healed and she was able to stand up on her own.

Li grabbed a few of them and scolded them bitterly.

But I don't know if I'm afraid of it, the black cat that has been following Hua Shi's side, Li Shi just scolded unforgivingly, and didn't do anything to Hua Shi again.

Or maybe it's the day of the Hua Ci Yuan exam, which is getting closer and closer, and Li doesn't want to make trouble easily, for fear that he will accidentally aggravate his back injury, and he can't accompany Hua Ci to the exam.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Li attaches great importance to Hua Ciyuan's exam this time, and he can't wait for him to be able to go high school in one fell swoop and win the list.

The Li family seems to have pinned all his high hopes on Hua Ciyuan...... It's easy to see from the moment you break up with the flowers......

"Meow Meow Meow ......"

Lying on the wooden table, the black cat with its tail curled up, with a pair of dark blue cat eyes, has been observing the flower Shi's every move.

When she saw the flower, she opened the door, and it jumped down with it, and followed her with a fart.

In the past ten days, it has been following Huashi every step of the way, and wherever Huashi goes, it will follow.

Hua Shi also followed it, and came out of the hall on his own, through the eaves, down the corridor, and headed straight for the kitchen.

The cramped, dimly lit kitchen, the wood scattered on the ground, and the overflowing ashes from the stove, were black and smeared.

There was a big empty hole on the stove, and the pot on top of it had been removed, and the table next to it was full of fragments of wood chips.

The most conspicuous thing is the wooden cabinet that was originally locked, and at this time the two doors are open widely, and the layers of cabinets are empty, and there is nothing left......

Hua Shi was shocked by this messy scene, and then immediately understood it.

In order to take the exam, Li began to pick it up five or six days in advance, and she saw that Li had two large bags full of packages two days ago, bulging, and she didn't know what to stuff into it.

This time I went out, just talking about the journey, slow for two or three days, plus heavy snowfall, the road is difficult, I don't know if there will be more delay on the road.

This person eats whole grains, and in order to save money, Li sees what she has at home, so she takes what she wants, whether it can be used, and what she doesn't use.

The pots and pans, as well as the rice, flour, grain and oil that Li had hidden for a long time and were reluctant to take out to eat, also brought them with him......

Hanashi paused for a moment, and his eyes fell on the wooden bowls and wooden chopsticks that had been stacked in the corners, and had fallen ashes.

She reached over and lifted it, five old wooden bowls, no more, no less, just right.

In addition to the five wooden bowls and chopsticks that could be found, all the things that could be used were gone, including the chopped firewood piled up in the corner......

"Click......

There were suddenly a few footsteps behind him, and Hua Shi turned around and saw Hua Xiao and Hua Li, one after the other, walking out of the hall.

The two of them first looked at the open courtyard door, and seemed to notice the flower time standing in the small kitchen.

Hua Xiao trotted over, and when she saw the small kitchen that had been moved, her eyes unconsciously turned red.

"Moved ......"

Hua Xiao's crying voice was a little unbelievable.

"Even the pot... It's all gone. ”

The little girl's eyes widened, and her voice was angry and annoyed.

As soon as this anger swelled up, it was then depressed again.

It's not surprising that the milk is like that......

Hua Shi sighed unconsciously in his heart.

It is not difficult to imagine how many things Li and Hua Ciyuan moved when they went out, and most of the courtyard was almost emptied, leaving nothing for them......

Fortunately, she had already bought a pot by herself, and she still had some money on her, and she still had some rice and noodles in her house, so she could barely enough to save some food.

It's the wild boar, which has already been scraped clean, and there is no scrap of meat left......

She also thought that it was frugal, so big a wild boar, after being marinated into jerky, could eat a little a day and eat it separately, how could it be eaten for a month.

But she overestimated, not to mention the four younger siblings who were waiting to be fed, just the appetite of the white fox and the black cat, that wild boar was just the ration of these two guys for a day or two.

Every time they took out the cured jerky to eat, these two guys kept staring at it, throwing a few pieces out at a time, and in just a few days, all the jerky was clean......

And the two guys, the white fox and the black cat, don't know what to think, since the last time the white fox stuck to her, they refused to go back to the mountains, and the black cat also stayed in the house, so they refused to go out to hunt, just waiting for her to feed.

After all the wild boar meat was eaten, the white fox and the black cat refused to go out to forage even if they were hungry and ate a little at a time......

Thinking about it, I have a little headache when I spend it.

At this time, the white fox, who had been hungry for nearly two days, had not eaten much, was hungry, in order to reduce the consumption of energy, the white fox had no energy at this time, and shrunk on her kang bed, a pair of eyes were aggrieved, and they chased her from time to time to look......

It's been a lot of snow these days, and I haven't been out much when I spend time.

After the wild boar meat was eaten, she could not get any other meat, so she only fed the white fox and the black cat some white porridge every day, and the two guys did not pick, they ate whatever they fed, and there was no complaint at all.

Although it is not enough to starve to death or anything, just drinking some white porridge is definitely not enough for omnivores......

It's not that I haven't asked the reason for it, and I've already told the two guys.

Her own abilities were limited, and if they had to follow her, she would not be able to feed them anything other than the spring water they were fed every day.

made it clear that when they were hungry, they could go back to the mountains to forage for food, and they didn't have to wait for her......

But it doesn't seem to be useful, the white fox and the black cat haven't left the Hua family's courtyard for more than ten days, and they would rather be hungry than move half a step......

Hua Xiao wiped her red eyes, and when she looked up, she saw Hua Shi looking troubled, looking at her with a small expression.

"What's wrong with you?"

She hesitated for a long time before she asked awkwardly.

Hearing the little girl's voice, Hua Shi slowly came back to his senses and shook his head, "It's okay, I cooked porridge, and I will bring it out after a while, and you two are waiting at the door." ”

As she spoke, she took the five wooden bowls that had just been turned out, walked to the water tank, scooped a few scoops of water with a wooden scoop, washed them a few times, and then turned back to the house.

Hua Xiao looked at her departing back, and her little brows furrowed tightly.

Her complicated feelings have lasted for many days, and until now, she doesn't know how to face it......

In the past ten days, because of the flowers, they have not been hungry anymore.

She sometimes brings them two meals a day, and for the first few days, there is always very fragrant meat, or noodle soup...... In the last few days, it has become white porridge......

She vaguely guessed that she might have spent almost all the money when she spent it, and there was meat to eat every day in those days, and meat was not cheap, and they didn't say anything about eating white porridge these days.

It's just that she's worried that if she spends all the money when she spends it, then they'll be hungry again... This winter is only halfway over, and she has to worry about it......

However, she vaguely felt that there must be a way to solve it when she spent it, after all, she was so powerful in her eyes.

The second brother has been sick for more than ten days, and he has been going back and forth, and the illness has come and gone.

If it weren't for Hua Shi's careful care and food for them, she and Hua Li didn't know what to do, and she couldn't imagine what the second brother would be sick when there were no flowers.

Xiaoying is still so young, without the support of her second brother, she will have no master, and she will be in a panic, she will also be scared and at a loss......

She has always been entangled in her heart, why Hua Shi seems to have changed as if she was a person, from a selfish, sinful and vicious woman, to what she is now.

She kept remembering the dark eyes of the second brother that day, and after more than ten days, she still didn't understand it......

For the change of Hua Shi, Hua Xiao's heart has been tearing herself apart painfully, on one side is the second brother who has old hatred and can't be forgotten, and the autistic and unspeakable shadow; On the other hand, it is the careful care of flowers, and the unconsciously dependent and close......

"Hua Xiao? Hua Xiao! What are you doing in a daze? She's calling you. ”

Huali's clear voice sounded in his ears.

Hua Xiao only felt that her arm was gently pulled, and only then did she slowly come back to her senses from her immersed thoughts.

"What's wrong?"

She was sluggishly half a beat slower.

Hua Li blinked: "I still want to ask you what's wrong?" Why have you been stunned lately? Are you still worried about the second brother? ”

Hua Xiao's thoughts tumbled, and after settling down, she shook her head sullenly.

She buried her head in her head and walked towards the hall, and heard the sound of flowers coming from the time of the flowers.

"It's still a little hot, and my hand is holding the edge."

Hua Shi, who was standing at the door of his room, saw Hua Xiao coming over slowly, and when he handed the bowl over, he reminded him casually.

Hua Xiao sulked her head, didn't speak, took the bowl, and walked towards the house next door with a muffled voice.

Hua Shi turned around and went into the house again, took out the other two bowls, and handed them to Hua Li, who came after him.

Hua Li sucked the snot that was frozen out, looked at the hot white porridge in the wooden bowl, and swallowed his dry throat.

These days, no matter what they are given at the time, it is fragrant noodles in broth, crispy and refreshing jerky, or white porridge with nothing to mix...... These things, for them, are already the best delicacies, how can they dislike it......

Hua Li is not as sensitive and worried as Hua Xiao, although he was a little surprised by Hua Shi's change at first, but he didn't think much about it in his heart, let alone get entangled.

He will eat whatever he gives, since it is all given for free, how can he not ...... But in his heart, there is another doubt......

"Knock ......"

No sooner had he turned and taken two steps than the sound of the door being closed behind him.

Hua Li's footsteps paused, and he turned his head and looked towards the door that had been closed again.

Every time she delivers food, she never lets them enter her house, nor does she let them see what is in her house, and every time she opens it, she closes it again in a hurry......

He wondered, what was hidden here, and ...... no one could see it?

…
