The mother and son ran two pawnshops, living for one and a half for a year, and dying for two and a half dollars.

The same is true for other jewelry shops, the price is not as high as the first one, Li Yunlan went to the first shop and sold four taels of silver.

Then he walked to the street near the city gate, found a noodle stall and sat down, Qiu Degui refused to go home to eat, Li Yunlan said: "I went to the county town with my mother, I can't afford to eat well, and my mother still has the money for noodles." ”

After sitting down, Li Yunlan asked the price, a bowl of somen noodles for two yuan, a bowl of braised pork noodles for four yuan, and a bowl of braised pork noodles for six yuan, Qiu Degui said that he just wanted a bowl of somen noodles.

Li Yunlan told the boss that she wanted two bowls of braised pork noodles.

"Mother, what about a bowl of six texts?"

Li Yunlan didn't speak, she didn't like to eat pig water, and she didn't want to eat somen noodles, how delicious braised pork noodles were!

Soon the boss brought two bowls of noodles, and also sent a small plate of pickled vegetables, the fragrance of braised meat drilled straight into the nose, and the mouth quickly secreted this saliva, Li Yunlan took the chopsticks and ate it, the long-lost meat aroma and smooth noodles made Li Yunlan feel the urge to cry.

A big bowl of noodles, at first Li Yunlan felt that he couldn't finish it, but he underestimated the body's thirst for meat and fine noodles.

And Qiu Degui has already finished eating and started to add bowls, even if it is delicious, he can't add bowls! Li Yunlan really couldn't bear to reprimand him, so he asked the boss to cook a bowl of pork offal noodles for him.

"Mother, no need, I'm full, but there is still some soup in the bowl that I am reluctant to waste."

"You are my son, you are not full, my mother can not know, I finally entered the second city, opened it to eat, and my mother bought it for you." After Li Yunlan finished speaking, she lowered her head and continued to eat noodles.

Qiu Degui looked at the mother in front of him, and slowly coincided with his mother when he was a child, his mother was like this when he was a child, it's not that his mother has changed, his mother has never changed, he is still the mother who loves himself.

The boss soon served another bowl of noodles, and Qiu Degui wiped his tears and ate it in a big gulp.

Li Yunlan also had mixed feelings in her heart, so she asked him for an extra bowl of noodles, and she was moved like this, and when she thought of her parents, she always felt that it was not enough for her children, so she also wet her eyes.

After eating the noodles and paying the money, the mother and son got up and prepared to go back, passing by the steamed bun shop, asking the price, one steamed bun and two meat buns, and wrapped more than a dozen to take back to eat.

After walking out of the city gate for a while, Qiu Degui walked in front of Li Yunlan and squatted down and said, "Mother, I'll carry you." ”

Li Yunlan was embarrassed and said: "No need, it's weirdly hot, let's go, your mother and I are not old enough to ask you to carry it, let's go." ”

On the way, Li Yunlan and Qiu Degui said that they didn't need his brothers to pick and sell medicine, she went to pick them every day, on the ridges and on the nearby mountains.

"Mother, you're working too hard, I'll go with my second child."

"You two know herbs, but you don't want the dealer in the field."

Qiu Degui scratched his head and asked, "Mother, how do you know herbal medicine?" ”

"What your grandfather taught, I don't know a few, they are all common in the field, and they are not worth much, three pennies a pound."

Qiu Degui has never seen his grandfather, and it is said that his mother disappeared when he was very young, so he has no doubts about Li Yunlan's words.

When the scorching sun was in the sky, he screamed knowing that he was dying, Li Yunlan hid from the sun and walked under the shade of the tree.

Unknown small wildflowers are blooming brightly, and clusters of small wild fruits not far away are red.

When I got closer, I saw that it was a thatch berry, and I picked one into my mouth, and the taste was sweet and sour.

Smoked the dog's tail and put the straw stalk up, and ate the broken ones directly, and soon the two wore more than a dozen strings, and some talked and laughed and walked home.

When they got home and entered the yard, Qiu Degui began to call out to the children, and several of the children poked out their furry heads, apparently not long after they woke up.

A child divided two bunches of thatchberries, and the buns were taken to the basket of the hall by Li Yunlan, and then he took a bath in the house with water, changed his clothes, and went to bed.

Qiu Degui did not rest, and went directly to the ground with a hoe.

In the second room, Baoyu sat on the futon and ate the fruit, glanced at the upper room from the window, and saw that the mother-in-law did not come out, so she muttered in her heart: I don't know what this dead old woman is doing in the city today, what is in the paper bag?

When I looked down and saw my son sleeping in a small pocket on the bed, I couldn't help laughing, and when I saw my daughter sitting under the bed eating fruit, I turned my head impatiently and continued to fan my son.

The sun was setting in the west, Liu took Chengcai to the vegetable field to water the vegetables, Chen successfully fed him, and went out of the house to cook in the kitchen, Li Yunlan came out of sleep and told Chen that she should cook porridge at night, Chen agreed, went to the kitchen to cook the porridge, and went to the backyard to feed the chickens and pigs.

When the porridge was ready, Li Yunlan put the bamboo grate in the porridge, put all the buns on it, and covered the pot and distilled it.

Another plate of capers was fried, and another plate of sauced cowpeas was taken out of the sauce jar.

When the brothers came back with hoes, Liu also came back with a basket of vegetables, and Chengcai carried a basket of tender grass.

"I went to wash my face, I ate, and the mosquitoes came up."

Several people listened to Li Yunlan's words, and they all lined up to wash their faces by the washing shelf outside the kitchen.

Chen went to open the pot to serve porridge, and saw more than a dozen buns on the bamboo grate, and was stunned for a moment.

"What are you rubbing? Don't hurry up yet. Li Yunlan shouted towards the kitchen.

Qiu Defu went into the kitchen to help, and when he saw Chen holding a big soup bowl with steamed buns, he asked, "Where did the steamed buns come from?" ”

Chen glanced outside and said, "How do I know." ”

Qiu Defu reluctantly took the buns and chopsticks out of the kitchen.

As soon as the buns were placed on the table, the children's eyes lit up, and they all shouted happily: "Wow, there are buns, eat buns." ”

Chen brought the porridge basin to the table in the back, filled a bowl for everyone and sat down, Li Yunlan got up and subcontracted, and one person divided two for them, and sat down and began to eat.

"Mother, you eat." Qiu Degui saw that the old lady didn't get it, so he gave his own to the old lady.

Qiu Defu also took the bun to Li Yunlan and said, "Mother, you eat." ”

Li Yunlan took the buns back to them: "My mother is old, and she can't digest it after eating too much at night, so you can eat it yourself." ”

"Not hungry? Don't eat it yet. ”

Seeing that the old lady was angry, they all started to eat, the children ate with relish, Qiu Degui felt that he had eaten meat in the city, so he divided one of the buns to Chengcai, and gave another to Mingyue.

"Daddy eats, Mingyue two are enough to eat." After speaking, he buried his head in eating again.

Qiu Degui smiled and touched Mingyue's head, Liu let him eat it himself, she gave her two to her husband and son, Qiu Degui gave her back again, the couple looked at each other and lowered their heads and smiled and ate.

And here in the second room, Qiu Defu also gave one to Baoyu, and Chen was angry and put it back in his bowl.

Baoyu was so frightened that she shrunk her neck and didn't dare to eat steamed buns.

Li Yunlan saw all this, so she called Baoyu: "Baoyu go to grandma's place to eat, don't squeeze your father." ”

"Mother, don't squeeze." Qiu Defu replied.

"If you don't squeeze it, eat it quickly, and the success is still in the house."

After Li Yunlan finished speaking, Chen choked his throat and sniffed in, and ate quickly.
