Chapter 5: Unexpected Joy
"Squeak" With the sound of the door opening, Xiaobao trotted all the way to Jiang Dige's side, and mysteriously handed her the things in his arms.
Jiang Dige looked at Xiaobao and sighed, this kid is too sensible, and even sensible makes people feel distressed.
Lingnan is a poor place, not to mention that Si Mubai was exiled here, and the treatment he received was even different from others.
For the same work, he always gets less than others are paid. When you meet a loser like the original owner, it's no wonder that this family can eat enough.
Just when she was about to give the sweet potato in her hand to Xiaobao, Dabao suddenly appeared outside the door, and then the same sweet potato was thrown into her arms, but he looked at Jiang Dige and was still very indifferent, "You give Xiaobao to him, and if you want to eat it, you can eat mine!" ”
Jiang Dige looked at Xiaobao and Dabao, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart. The two of them are completely different personalities, but their hearts are always good. At the beginning of human beings, nature is good, this sentence is really true.
She got out of bed and walked towards Dabao, but as soon as she stretched out her hand, the child habitually covered her head with her hand.
"Don't be afraid, I promised to treat you well in the future. It's all that matters to you two to fill your stomach, I'm not hungry! ”
It was the first time for Dabao to see that Jiang Dige didn't grab something to eat with the two of them, and he couldn't react for a while, "You really don't want to eat?" ”
"Well, don't eat it!" Jiang Dige waved his hand and walked towards the outside of the house.
She glanced at the sleeping old ox and the two mice, and suddenly a thought crossed her mind. It's hard to find food in this place, but there must be some wildlife in the mountains.
She nodded to herself and walked forward with the bamboo basket on her back. Within two steps, her legs were picked up by Xiaobao. Looking down, a pair of round eyes were full of fear and loneliness.
Seeing this, Dabao stepped forward and was about to pull Xiaobao away, he knew that Jiang Dige wouldn't be able to pretend for long, "Leave her alone, she'll leave when she's gone." Anyway, you and I have a mother and no mother, no one cares except for my father. ”
As he spoke, Dabao turned his back.
Jiang Dige patted her head gently, she only cared about going outside to find food, why did she forget to explain to these two children.
She squatted down and protected Xiaobao in her arms, and said softly, "I'm not leaving, it's just that there is nothing to eat at home, and our family can't starve to death." You and my brother are waiting for me here, I'll go and take a look on the other side, okay? ”
Xiaobao raised his head and looked in the direction of Jiang Tuge's mouth, just wanted to nod but as if he remembered something, shaking his little head like a rattle, "There is a big tiger in the mountain, I protect my mother!" ”
Jiang Dige knew Xiaobao's thoughts, but he didn't debunk him, "Okay, you protect your mother." ”
As she spoke, she looked at Dabao on the side again, this child looked indifferent on his face, but he was actually the most vulnerable person.
"Are you going?"
Dabao looked at Jiang Dige with some surprise, "Me? ”
Jiang Dige nodded, and cast an inquiring glance at him again.
"Go and go, I want to watch you, lest you throw Xiaobao away!" After that, Dabao looked at Jiang Tuge like an adult, but he had already picked up a small shovel in his hand.
Jiang Dige was amused by his appearance, it seems that she will slowly make up for these two children in the future.
The three of them walked for a long time, and finally reached the foot of the mountain. Lingnan is not a rich place, there is a perennial drought here, so there is no food in the field at all.
Just when Jiang Tuge was discouraged, the sound of chirping appeared in her ears again. At first, she was only annoyed, but now she thinks that it is not bad to be able to hear animals.
"You know what? This morning, the third child couldn't think of jumping off the cliff. ”
"What, cliff jumping?"
"yes, it doesn't know what to smoke like crazy."
"You don't know that it likes to hide things on weekdays, so go check it out!"
Jiang Dige looked in the direction of the voice, and it turned out to be two gray rabbits. I saw that the two rabbits were like bows and arrows off the string, and the one who ran was fast.
Jiang Dige hadn't eaten meat for a long time, and she was even more greedy when she saw the rabbit today. Braised rabbit meat, spicy rabbit head, what a delicious thing to eat!
Xiaobao looked at Jiang Dige like this, and his little head was full of question marks.
He stretched out his hand and gently pulled Jiang Tuge's skirt, "Mother, are you hungry and stupid?" ”
Hearing this, Jiang Dige realized that she had just lost her temper, and she smiled awkwardly, "Dabao, Xiaobao, do you want to eat rabbits?" Shall we go catch rabbits? ”
When the two children heard that they were going to catch the rabbit, their eyes lit up, and so the three of them went in the direction of the two rabbits running wildly.
I don't know if it's Tianzhu and her, but the two rabbits that ran wild just now crashed to death next to the tree.
Dabao was the first to run over, holding the ears of the two rabbits and standing up, "Look, rabbits! ”
"Well, we can have meat to eat today!" Jiang Dige stretched out his hand and rubbed Si Shuo's head.
The next moment, Dabao's body took a step back.
Jiang Dige knew that she had to give Dabao time to accept her, and she was not in a hurry. Children, where can there be people who don't kiss their mothers?
Compared with rabbit meat, those that are hidden and eaten are no longer fragrant in Jiang Tuge's eyes. The mother and son rummaged in the forest for a long time, and all wild mushrooms and fungus were found.
