Chapter 3 Ancestor is very hungry, don’t bother me
The two sisters-in-law, who went to borrow food from their parents' house, did not return until almost noon.
I left home at six or seven in the morning and didn't come back until noon. I don't know what happened.
The two sisters-in-law each borrowed three kilograms of brown rice and ten kilograms of sweet potatoes from their parents' families.
Don't underestimate these grains, they add up to less than 30 kilograms, but these grains were all obtained from their parents' families in vain.
Because this time I went home to borrow food, my parents almost turned against them and disowned them.
Not to mention their brothers and sisters-in-law, both of whom are married women. For the mother's family, the married daughter throws away water.
In these years of eating one meal and not having another, the family relationship has become a lot indifferent.
However, if she didn't borrow food from her parents' family, the daughter of the third daughter-in-law might not survive these few days.
As mothers, they all know that it is not easy to conceive in ten months. When giving birth, they have to risk half their lives to give birth to the child. How can they watch the child starve to death.
With tears in her eyes, Mrs. Su held the hands of her two sisters-in-law. She also knew in her heart that the two sisters-in-law must have suffered a lot of injustice when they returned to their parents' home to borrow food.
"Thank you for your hard work. Go back to the house and have a rest. I'll call you when the food is ready."
I'm afraid that when the evil-minded Lao San comes back, he will miss the food at home again.
After Mrs. Su finished cooking a meal, she locked all the food in the cabinet in her house.
The two of them brought back not much food, so they could only eat it for about five or six days. They couldn't bear the lack of food, and the family had a large population. No matter how frugal they were, there would still be a day when they would finish it.
Even if the porridge cooked in Dunton is only a basket of rice, and people can be seen in the light, this little food will not last long.
Just live one day at a time.
The lunch meal is the best in recent months.
Boil brown rice with sweet potato cubes and make a pot of porridge, mixed with sweet potatoes to make you feel fuller.
The rice porridge on the table was clear and watery, and could reflect people's shadows, but it was the most delicious meal in the Su family's life.
The side dish is a plate of pickled brown dried radish, which is so salty that a small piece can be eaten with a bowl of gruel.
Tong Xiaying had just given birth and was in confinement, so the eggs laid by the hens at home were given to her.
A hard-boiled egg.
"Mom, why is this porridge so thick? You don't have to take care of me. I just eat the same food as you." This food was brought back from my parents' house by my eldest sister-in-law and my second sister-in-law.
How could she eat? All the food in the house was stolen by her man.
Tong Xiaying postponed and let the old lady eat by herself.
"You just gave birth to a baby, and the conditions at home are not good. How can you not eat more during confinement?"
"Don't put it off. Only when you are full can you have the strength to take care of the child." With that said, Mrs. Su opened the curtain and walked out.
It was approaching evening, and the sun had already set halfway down outside.
Su Dazhu, the boss of the Su family, just came back from outside.
From their village to the town, it takes two hours just to walk, let alone when the mountains are blocked by heavy snow.
The journey will only get harder.
Their village is in the middle of a mountain surrounded by mountains, and the surrounding area is covered with snow, making the weather even more severe and cold.
When Su Dazhu arrived home, the snow and rain outside stopped, but the cold wind was still howling.
His whole body was red from the cold, and his hands and feet were swollen.
Under the eyelids, there were streaks of ice.
As soon as Su Dazhu entered the house, he took off his hat. Because of the cold weather, his body froze into ice when he sweated.
The felt hat straps on my head were not warm either, and there was a layer of ice on them.
My head feels so cold.
A shoulder pole and two baskets were placed on the earthen floor inside the house.
A basket of sweet potatoes, potatoes, and a basket of frozen cabbage.
Su Dazhu also took out a bag of corn noodles weighing ten kilograms and a jar of malted milk.
I was afraid of getting wet, so I carried it in my arms because the mountain road was not easy to walk on.
A group of children at home gathered around the basket. Seeing so much food, they all clapped their hands and looked excited.
Compared to the excitement of the children, the adults all looked sad and sad.
Just the amount of food they got back was simply not enough for them to survive this winter.
"Hurry up to the child." The old lady took the malted milk and pushed it to the eldest daughter-in-law.
This rice soup was not filling at all, and it was gone in just two soaks of urine.
It made Su Hanlin cry for a long time. She, a Taoist ancestor, cried so much that she burped because of a mouthful of food. If word spread about this, it would make people laugh!
"Boss, thank you for your hard work."
"It's okay, Mom." Su Dazhu reported to the old lady before he had time to change his clothes.
"The bracelet was sold for thirty-five yuan, and a can of malted milk was ten yuan. The contents of this basket, including corn flour and twenty kilograms of old rice, totaled eleven yuan and ninety-three cents. This is the remaining money and Take the tickets." Su Dazhu's hands were red and swollen from the cold, and he couldn't stop shaking. He handed the money in his hands back to the old lady.
Mrs. Su looked at her eldest son distressedly. It was really hard for him to go out for this trip.
"Hurry up and use snow instead of hot water. You just came back, so don't make it worse."
After calming down, the old lady's heart ached for a while. This can of malted milk cost ten yuan. Tong Xiaying had no milk, so she was counting on malted milk these days. Alas...
The old lady got a headache when she thought of this.
How long can a can of malted milk last? Although this child has little appetite, he will grow up as the days pass by.
"Second brother, put all this food in my house. Your father and I will guard it. I'll see if any mouse can sneak in. Let's see if I don't kill him." Mrs. Su said in a deep voice.
It is difficult to defend against house thieves by day and by night.
"Boss, did you see that bastard when you went to town just now?" Su Guohuai knocked on the old cigarette pole.
"Dad, there's no way that the third child is just waiting to be caught by the boss. He might have found someplace to hide."
"After a while, the news passed, I ran out of money, and the cat came back again." Su Xiaotang, the sixth child, pursed her lips and said.
Mr. Su snorted coldly, "I'm afraid he won't come back. If he dares to come back, it's better to just tie him up and throw him away into the mountains behind, and feed him to the wild boar, bear and blind man. It's better than harming people."
"The scourge will last for thousands of years. Didn't my mother poison him with rat poison before?"
When Su Xiaotang said these words, the Su family fell silent.
In a state of sorrow.
Su Sanzhu is a troublemaker. As long as he is still there, the old Su family will never live in peace.
Even rat poison can't kill this traitor, what an injustice!
"Sister-in-law, why don't you drink it first? I'm asleep right now, so I won't drink it after drinking it." Tong Xiaying glanced at the child.
"You can't be hungry. After drinking rice soup, you have to urinate a lot. How can you do it without anything in your stomach?" Xie Lianhua frowned.
The malted milk is ready, and a rich, sweet smell fills the room.
The little baby, who was half asleep and half awake, couldn't help but whimper.
Su Hanlin is in a state of rage for the nth time. Can you eat enough at once?
I'm crying, or I'm incontinence!
Madhu, her ancestor’s face was completely disgraced by this little milk baby.
She couldn't control it at all. When her body cried, she had to move.
terribly upset!
And this child gets hungry too easily. It only took about an hour after drinking the malted milk in the morning. Not long after practicing, he became hungry...
Just like Marshal Tianpeng descending to earth and reincarnating.
What's more... he was automatically ejected from the space, opened his mouth, and cried. Who knows that feeling!
Ten thousand grass-mud horses galloping past!
Find the shadow area in your heart?
No solution!
