Chapter 11: Why Did My Father Raise You?
Xu Xiangyang saw that the two of them had gone out, and he followed out.
Usually, the original owner doesn't talk to anyone else at home, so the children in the family don't talk to him.
When I got out, I just got food from outside.
"There's something wrong with this cabbage, if it's ten catties less, take four more." Wang Xiumin pointed to the cabbage on the ground and said that something was wrong.
She cooks every day, of course, she knows how many catties each cabbage is, one is more than four catties, but these are all small about two catties, and the number of catties is not weighed to know that something is wrong.
"What's the thing less than ten pounds? That's all, do you want love!" Mrs. Xu's eyes narrowed, but she didn't give it.
Xu Xiangyang stepped forward and grabbed Wang Xiumin, who was about to speak again, "Mother, forget it, we can't eat enough for these ten catties." Look at these ten catties of cabbage, they can eat for a few more days. ”
Mrs. Xu was angry by his words, but she didn't squeak when she thought that she didn't need to give it.
Wang Xiumin is distressed, this stupid dog, I don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are not at home.
Without these ten catties of cabbage, she really can't starve to death, but if she has it, she will eat more vegetables for a few more days.
The words have already been spoken, and it is useless to say more.
The two resigned themselves to carrying the grain back, and Xu Xiangyang followed behind.
Xu Guangshan always felt that something didn't seem to be right with the third family, but he couldn't remember what was wrong.
"Mother, divide them up, they don't have any ideas?"
Old Mrs. Xu snorted coldly, "Give them a hundred guts! The third family is cheating and cheating, it's better without them, but the second family is obedient, don't worry, they don't dare." ”
For the second Xu Guangwen family, she has the best idea of being a mother, and the family is unproductive, so she can handle it.
Since she said so, Xu Guangshan didn't say more, anyway, with the old couple here, their family Xu Xiangmin will definitely be able to finish college and marry a good daughter-in-law.
Here, Xu Xiangyang followed the two of them back, carrying dozens of cabbages in his hands.
This cabbage is indeed small enough, the cabbage I bought in the farmhouse before costs three cents a pound, and the largest cabbage is more than ten pounds.
This cabbage is estimated to be the same as the little cabbage core of later generations, which is really small and touching.
However, these things are really not enough for them to eat until the next year, at most enough for two months.
The Chinese New Year is still a month away, and there is not even some white flour at home.
Xu Xiangyang is not worried about his future life, as long as he goes to the city, he can bring food back to his family under any excuse.
He can't guarantee that he will have enough food and clothing, but he can be well fed and clothed.
After all, who doesn't think about it when they first arrive, and their cold family is rich?
The two of them sat in the house, imagining the life of Xu Xiangyang's city people in the future, and suddenly felt that this little thing was not so less.
Xu Xiangyang couldn't help but pour a basin of cold water on the two of them, "Mother, don't think too well, temporary workers are not as good as regular workers, they can be squeezed out at any time." ”
The two of them were stunned for a moment when they heard this, and before they could react, Xu Xiangyang said again: "Besides, my grandfather didn't say what the job is, what if I can't do it?"
This is to scare and scare the two of them, but if he can't do it, he has to find a way out.
But now these two people are a little flustered, he is really afraid that the two of them will go out and talk nonsense, and then let the old couple of the Xu family know, what if they regret it?
"Don't talk nonsense. Wang Xiumin obviously felt that this would not work, and said: "If you can't do it, we will starve to death if we wait for the food to be distributed." ”
"yes,, you've got to do a good job. Xu Guangtian was not very relieved, he originally thought that this matter was very good, but now it seems that the work has not yet been done, how do you know if it will work.
Xu Xiangyang looked at the two of them a little panicked, and suddenly felt that he had said too much?
The result is ...... in the next second
"If it really doesn't work, let's move to your grandfather's, anyway, your grandfather saved up this matter. Xu Guangtian is thick-skinned, and now he wants to go to his father-in-law's house.
Wang Xiumin slapped him on the back, "Can you have a little bit of fun? Why did my father raise you? If you want to go, I'll take the dog with you! You just stick your neck at home and wait to starve to death." ”
Do you still want her father to raise him?
Xu Xiangyang supported his forehead......
In order not to pit this grandfather, he has to do a good job.
The family of three finished dinner this time and began to study the days ahead.
"The house at home has to live, but it's too inconvenient to live in the same yard with them. Wang Xiumin was depressed, but she didn't know what to do.
Xu Guangtian doesn't matter, isn't it the same where he lives?
He lay on the kang with Erlang's legs crossed, and said, "Then where do you say to live? Our family has no money to build a house." ”
Building a house does not require money except wood and stone, and other expenses are about dozens of yuan.
After all, it's all mud houses now, and there are no bricks and tiles, but someone has to get these things, so you can't all three of you build a house, right?
Xu Xiangyang felt that the three of them could build a thatched house, and it was impossible to live in a house, unless they lived in it.
Wang Xiumin was angry when he saw him, but he didn't say anything, he thought about it and said: "When spring begins, fence off the yard and don't share a yard with them." ”
Lao Xu's house is four rooms, one room for each family, and the front and back yards are built left and right.
His house is with the old couple, and in front of him is Boss Xu and Xu Lao's second family.
It's okay to surround the yard, but they're all separated anyway.
The two sat on the kang and talked for a long time, while Xu Xiangyang had already fallen asleep.
He felt that as long as he was still a neighbor with this family, there would definitely be a lot of things to do in the future.
If you want to live a stable life, you must stay away from Lao Xu's family, otherwise there will be no time to stop.
The next morning, Wang Xiumin got up to cook, said it was cooking, and burned a few potatoes.
Because there is no pot, I can only eat like this.
"It's not okay, it's okay to eat two meals, can't you eat heartburn every day?" Xu Guangtian came out of the joy of separating the family.
When I didn't rush to split up, I could still drink some big porridge or something before, but now I can't drink hot water.
But you can't buy a pot without an industrial coupon, so why can't you buy a ticket this year?
Not to mention the ticket, their family doesn't have a penny.
Wang Xiumin wanted to share some money, but when they distributed the grain, all their family wanted was food, and they didn't exchange a penny.
So even if she mentions it, I'm afraid Mrs. Xu won't give it.
Usually the family is short of money, and Mrs. Xu always takes food to other people's houses to exchange money.
"Tomorrow I'll go to my mother's house to get a clay pot and deal with it first, anyway, I won't stir-fry and stew. Wang Xiumin decided directly.
Now I don't have that condition to eat stir-fried food, and it's good to have something to eat.
"Okay, I'll go to work first. Xu Guangtian clapped his hands, got up and went out.
