Wear to the age!I take the space to eat and drink spicy food

Chapter 9 I Have No Money
Soon, Jiang Xue saw Jiang Dabao getting off the bed carefully, and even took a special look at her.

But he didn't come to Jiang Xue's side, but lightly and quickly started a fire.

Add water to the small aluminum pot, then groped to climb onto the bed, took out a cloth bag from it, hesitated for a few minutes, and took out the millet that Jiang Xue had given before.

The small aluminum pot was small, so the water boiled quickly. Jiang Dabao grabbed two handfuls of millet and threw them in, and hid the rest of the millet before sitting in front of the pot to watch the fire.

However, he was not idle while watching the fire. He took out two corn stalks from the bottom of the bed, wiped them casually on his clothes, and then gnawed them. His movements were very gentle, as if he was afraid of being discovered.

Jiang Xue: "..." Well, just drink that little millet porridge. After this night, I'm already hungry.

Jiang Dabao gnawed a mouthful of corn stalks, chewed them, spit out the dregs, and threw them into the fire, which could not only destroy the corpses, but also help the combustion, which could kill two birds with one stone.

After eating three corn stalks, the millet porridge was ready.

He removed the excess fire, added some water to the pot, and just kept the millet porridge warm.

Probably smelling the fragrance, Aunt Jiang also woke up.

"Three babies."

Jiang Dabao got up quickly, he glanced at Jiang Xue's direction again, and then whispered: "Grandma, why are you awake?"

"Why are you up and cooking? It's still early, you kid..."

"We have to save millet, and we have to replace it with coarse grains, otherwise, how will we survive this winter." Aunt Jiang is not hungry, but there is only such a little millet, so open to eat, can't I replace it with coarse grains ?
Without rough grains, how can we survive the winter with only two catties of millet.

Jiang Dabao pursed his lips, and replied softly: "Grandma, I know, I didn't make it for myself, I made it for sister **, I will go up the mountain in a while, I want to see if I can find it again Some wild vegetables."

Only then did Aunt Jiang realize that she had misunderstood her grandson, and she also looked in Jiang Xue's direction. The room was still dark, and the fire had dimmed, so she could only see a general idea.

"Okay. Then take your time on the road. It's at the foot of the mountain. Don't go into the mountain. Come back quickly."

"I know, grandma, if you are hungry, just wait, I will cook for you when I come back from the mountain."

"Okay, I'm not hungry. I ate quite full yesterday, and I'm still full now."

At this time, Jiang Xue, who was pretending to be asleep, froze for a moment, did you cook the millet porridge for me?No wonder I don't seem to see dried wild vegetables.

Because Jiang Xue was still sleeping, the grandfather and grandson didn't say much. Jiang Dabao quickly dug out a backpack, took the broken sickle and prepared to go out.

He walked carefully around the place where Jiang Xue was sleeping, came to the door and pulled the latch, then stepped out and quickly closed the door, fearing that the cold wind would blow in.

And this time, Jiang Dabao just wrapped the iron wire around the door nail, and pulled it a little harder from the room, and the door opened.

There was still the smell of millet porridge in the room, but Aunt Jiang lay down again, so she would not be hungry if she moved less and slept more.

If you are not hungry, you can eat less and last longer.

Jiang Xue woke up more than an hour later, and it was already dawn.

Probably because she made a lot of noise packing the moisture-proof pad, Aunt Jiang was also woken up.

As soon as Aunt Jiang sat up, she warmly greeted Jiang Xue: "Comrade Jiang is awake? Just right, breakfast is still warming on the fire. Eat quickly, don't be hungry."

Jiang Xue just closed the zipper of the cross bag, and smiled when she heard the words: "No need, Aunt Jiang, I haven't finished my work yet, I got up late, I have to go to the city quickly."

"No matter how anxious you are, you can't stop eating." Aunt Jiang hurriedly stopped her: "Where is the strength to do things when you are hungry?"

"I really don't want to eat." Jiang Xue shook her head and said, "Ms. Jiang, you can eat."

Aunt Jiang: "We have eaten. Sanwa and I got up early and ate first. Sanwa has already gone to the foot of the mountain to look for wild vegetables."

If Jiang Xue hadn't seen it, she might have believed it.

"Ms. Jiang, I really can't make it in time. I'll go to work first. You should have a good rest. I'll come and see you when I have time."

After speaking, Jiang Xue waved her hand, opened the door and went out.

"Hey...Comrade Jiang, Jiang..."

Aunt Jiang shook her head helplessly, her gaze fell on the small aluminum pot that was obviously still steaming, she swallowed, turned around and took out the needle and thread wrapped around a piece of wood from under the pillow, and put the quilt on The newly added holes in the past two days were cracked.

After Jiang Xue left Aunt Jiang's house, there was still no one on the way into the city.

Stretching, Jiang Xue looked around while kicking her legs, it was fine, no one was there, she stretched out her hand, took out the big pocket of the overalls, and quickly took out a sandwich.

This is an extra-volume sandwich, two slices of toast, a large piece of chicken thigh, two slices of bacon and a fried egg, plus a large shrimp before and after. Of course, cucumber slices and tomato slices must also be included, and salad dressing Definitely must.

After taking a bite, Jiang Xue squinted her eyes in satisfaction and groaned, it was delicious.

In this way, Jiang Xue ate a sandwich while walking, and then drank two sips of hot milk, and the breakfast was settled in this way.

As soon as she put the glass bottle of milk into the space and wiped her hands clean, a bell rang behind her.

She thought it was a bicycle, but when Jiang Xue turned her head to look, she realized that it was the carriage of the rural production team that Jiang Dabao had heard about before.

"Girl, are you going into the city?" Just as Jiang Xue turned around to look back, the driver of the carriage also shouted at her: "There is still a long way ahead, do you want to come up and rest?"

The driver looked like a standard farmer going to the countryside. He was wearing an old padded jacket made of black homespun cloth and a cotton hat on his head. Jiang Xue had only seen this kind of dress in TV dramas before.

At this time, there were still people sitting behind the carriage, two men and two women, they looked like two couples, one was a little older, in their thirties, and the other looked like they were in their early 22s.

The clothes they wear are similar to those of the old man driving the cart, they are all homespun, but the men are old padded jackets, and the women are floral slanted jackets. There are a few patches on the clothes, but they are better than clean.

This kind of clothing has long been out of fashion in the city, and it is still the same in the countryside.

There is a shortage of supplies. Except for food and drink, the clothes are new for three years and old for three years, and they have been mended for three years. Even the pots and bowls have holes and cracks. .

When the old man greeted Jiang Xue, the older couple raised their eyelids and looked at her, both showing surprise in their eyes.

The young couple couldn't take their eyes away when they saw Jiang Xue. Although Jiang Xue was dressed very low-key, she was white and clean. The clothes were not patched, the material was thick, and the shoes were shiny. It looked like a big city. here.
