Chapter 2 The Bitter Babies of the Village

The grandmother held the baby girl who had only been born for a few days, and she was so anxious that she went around the yard. At that time, life was still relatively difficult, let alone buying milk powder, and I couldn't even afford biscuits. The grandmother took her little granddaughter in her arms and went to the village woman who had milk to ask for milk to eat. "Your sister-in-law, okay, feed the child a sip of milk, the child is too pitiful." She said in a begging tone. On weekdays, she has a lot of backbone, and she doesn't ask for anyone no matter how hard her life is, but in order to support her little granddaughter, she is willing to give up her face. If you go to one house and eat two bites, you will go to another house and ask for two bites, sometimes you have to go to four or five houses. Not every time I ask for milk, sometimes I will encounter difficulties in speaking, such a village woman not only does not give milk to eat, but also nags and blames: "My child is still not full, how can I give it to my child!" ”

The village accountant urged Shi to register the baby girl, but the family did not discuss what to name the baby girl. The mother of the stone went to cut the grass in the wasteland outside the village, and found the willow growing in the saline-alkali land, and thought to herself: "This kind of thing can't drown, it can't die in drought, and it is resistant to salt and alkali, and the granddaughter of the hard life is as good as it!" So, when she went back, she went to the accountant's house, registered her granddaughter's name Linliu, and the accountant took the time to go to the police station to officially register the household registration. Linliu is a kind of shrub in southwest Lu, Linliu has strong toughness, and it is often used to weave frames. The vitality is very strong, and it contains the word "lin", which is very auspicious. It's a godsend.

After a month, Linliu gradually grew up, and she couldn't feed herself enough to rely on the milk she beggars. The grandmother fed her granddaughter to drink, but the nutrition was not high. Looking at the yellow and thin granddaughter's face, the grandmother let out a long sigh. Yufeng, who was looking at the baby on the side, frowned. Yufeng is Shi's younger sister, 12 years old, in the fourth grade, thin body, thin face, fair skin, a pair of big eyes flickering, revealing intelligence, two long braids hanging down on the chest. This is definitely a little beauty.

After school in the afternoon, Yufeng went to the field to pull weeds as usual. There are more than 10 long-haired rabbits in the family, all of which are fed by Yufeng pulling weeds. When Yufeng was pulling weeds, she saw her partner herding sheep, and several little goats were lying under the mother goats to feed, just like a few children.

Yufeng asked her partner, "Can people drink goat's milk?" ”

The partner replied, "Yes, my mother often squeezes the milk and boils it for me to drink."

"You ask my mother, can you lend me a ewe lamb, and when the lamb grows up and gives birth to a lamb, I will return a big one." Yufeng said.

"Yes, my mother listens to me." Partner said.

At noon the next day, Yufeng brought home a goat.

"Mother, I don't want to go to school anymore, I borrowed a goat lamb from Huzi's family, and when I grow up and give birth to a lamb, I can milk and feed Linliu." Yufeng stared at her mother with begging eyes and said.

"Not going to school? Nonsense! How can you do it without going to school? You're still a good student. The teacher said that you can be admitted to university in the future. The mother said as she wiped her tears.

Yu Fengning couldn't go to school anymore, and the teacher came to the house several times to persuade her, but she didn't persuade her to change her mind. In this way, Yufeng carefully fed the sheep while helping her mother take care of Linliu.

More than a year later, the goat gave birth to three lambs at a time. Put the boiled goat's milk into the bottle, put the nipple into Linliu's mouth, and the fragrant goat's milk overflows the room. Lin Liu sucked on the pacifier, "humming", and smiled. Yufeng lay on the side and stared at her little niece and smiled happily.
