Hard times have room

Chapter 417

After Paulin finished eating, she stretched out her hand and directly drained the remaining April soak from the bowl. The wild vegetables were still a bit bitter. Before that, she drank white water and rinsed her mouth. Now that she has fruit, she can change it. The taste, of course, will not grieve yourself.

When she put away the bowl, Su Hongying and Wang Jiandang were still fighting with the loquats in the bowl, but it was almost over, and there were not a few loquats left in the bowl.

Pauline simply put the unfinished fruit in the kitchen, washed it in a basin, and took it to the main room.

"Mom and dad, don't worry, I was lucky this time, I found a lot of April bubbles and loquats, there are still here, eat slowly."

Originally, Su Hongying and Wang Jiandang, who were just staring blankly at the things in Paulin's hands, had long since lost their urgency. Seeing the wild fruit in her hand, she felt embarrassed.

Now all the things on the table were brought back by Pauline, and the two of them patronized and ate it. Isn't it obvious that they are too useless.

Although Pauline couldn't see anything in the dim light, she could sense the awkward atmosphere: "The water has already been boiled, I have to wash everything this time, my body is sticky and uncomfortable at all. "

After he finished speaking, he trotted back to his room, groped for his clothes from the bed, and quickly ran out to take a shower.

This time, she also washed her hair. After rubbing her head vigorously with a dry towel, she lay on the bed with the towel she just wiped her hair under her head.

Soon, a small snoring sounded from Pauline's throat. She had already fallen asleep. When she was at school, she might have to think about things for ten minutes and a half hours before she could fall asleep peacefully. , In Shanghe Village, she was able to sleep in seconds, probably because of that unique sense of belonging to her hometown!

Early the next morning, Pauline woke up the earliest. She first got up to cook. After her parents went out with the hoe and sickle, Paulin also went out with the basket on her back.

This time, she didn't go directly to the back mountain, but carried a backpack and planned to go to Dongmei's house. After doing the math, she and Dongmei hadn't seen each other for almost a month. It is obviously impossible not to go to her house to play with her during a holiday.

Bao Lin didn't expect that before she got to Dongmei's house, she saw Dongmei's sisters on the road first.

She hasn't seen them for a long time. Since she went to high school, she has spent much less time in the village. Each holiday is only two or three days, and she has little contact with the villagers.

Seeing the first sight of the Li family sisters, Paulin felt that they were very thin. Now everyone in the village is thin, lean and thin. When the clothes are lifted, you can see the ribs, but even so, she Now when I see the sisters of the Li family, the first impression is that they still feel thin, very thin. This shows how bad their current situation is.

In particular, Li Ju, the eldest of the two, has grown a little taller and looks like a bamboo pole. She doubted whether Li Ju would see that she was only wrapped in one layer when she pulled up her sleeves. skin of bones.

It was just a chance encounter on the road, the two sides were not very familiar, and the relationship was not very good, so they did not say hello. They gathered together from the two paths in silence, and then separated in silence.

Paulin is generally passive. If the sisters of the Li family speak first and say hello, she will politely reply with a greeting, but they don't, and Paulin just pretends not to see it.

The two sides didn't say hello, and there was no communication. The atmosphere was still quite awkward. Originally, Paulin thought it was just a moment of embarrassment. However, seeing the path taken by the Li family sisters who were walking in front of her, Paulin tutted lightly. , Unexpectedly, the direction turned out to be the same.

Before the two sides walked different paths, they just met at the intersection. Unexpectedly, the road afterward turned out to be the same. Judging from the situation of the two of them, it was obvious that they were going to her nanny's house to catch breakfast!

There is only one road, it is not impossible to change the road, it is just a detour.

After thinking about it, Baolin finally followed behind the sisters Li Ju and Li Juan. However, she took a small step and fell far behind the sisters of the Li family. Because of her slow pace, she was far away from Li. The distance between the sisters is also getting farther and farther, until they can't be seen in front of them.

At this time, Pauline rubbed off again, and walked with her toes and heels. One was to stay away from the Li sisters, lest one of them would turn around and find her following behind, and the misunderstanding would be bad. The other was, she thought. You know, her grandmother's reaction to seeing sisters Li Ju and Li Juan go home to eat.

Even if it happened in the house, she couldn't see it, but when she passed by the door of the house, she could always hear a few words.

Usually a short and brisk road, Paulin just walked out of the hardship, as if the road was difficult to walk.

Walking slowly to the door of the Old Wang's courtyard, listening to the lively voices inside, Bao Lin felt that Mumu's head finally lifted her head this morning.

After thinking about it, it seems that she hasn't seen her grandma for a long time. It's not good. It's her grandma anyway. It's right to visit them every once in a while. Even if she didn't bring anything, her filial piety was brought. of.

That's right, that's right. Her family had breakfast a little early today. Dongmei's family probably hasn't had dinner yet, or is currently eating. In this case, it would be inappropriate for her to go now.

Yes, it's not suitable, I'd better go see her grandma first, filial piety is important.

Thinking of this, Paulin didn't bother anymore, just shook her head, pushed open the small wooden door, and walked into the yard.

There was no one in the yard now, and they were all arguing in the house. Before Pauline entered the house, she heard the grumpy voice of the old lady coming from inside.

"No, Li Tao, I warn you, hurry up and send me the people from the Li family. My family doesn't belong to Kaishantang, and my children are hungry and crying. How can there be any surplus food to feed your Li family's baby."

"If you don't send it back, then don't eat it this morning. The portion that belongs to you, how you like it, is none of my business."

By this time, Pauline had also arrived at the door of the main room. She didn't stand outside the door, which was too distracting. Instead, she slowly paced to the corner and sat down on the familiar small bench.

I looked up at the main room of the old house, and sure enough, it was still very familiar. Most of the places were the same as when she moved away, only some subtle changes have been made.

For example, the newspaper on the wall seems to have changed. The old newspaper that had been with the family for three years has been removed and replaced with a new one with a big headline that reads "Eliminating Harm for the People." ".
