Crossing the road to riches

Chapter 3 Food of Surprise
The heart that had just been let go lifted up again in an instant, and Youcai hurriedly supported his mother: "Mother~ mother, are you okay, you can't die, what will our family do if you die?" what".

The old lady froze for an instant, two lines of tears remained, and her body was trembling uncontrollably.

Wen Hao has a headache, everyone in this room knows how to cry, what's the use of crying: "Don't cry, mother is fine, it's too hot and suffer from heat stroke, elder sister, hurry up and carry mother to a cool corner".

Immediately afterwards, he comforted the grandma: "Grandma, let go of my hand first, mother is fine, she has suffered from heatstroke just like the two of us, I have read the medical books and went to give my mother the first seat".

Grandma let go of her granddaughter's hand immediately.

Dad also reacted immediately: "My mother's doctor hasn't gone far, I'll go and invite him back."

Wen Jinmei's face is full of sorrow, the younger sister said that mother will be fine, so there is no need for father to go, after all, the situation at home...

"Father, didn't my little sister say it's okay, so don't go, even if you invite us, our family has no money to pay for the medical bills."

At this time, the father also panicked and said: "It's okay, father has saved some private money, enough, your mother can't have an accident."

Wen Fugui, who was young and strong, had already woken up. Although he was still very uncomfortable, when he heard that his man was saving private money behind his back, his eyes immediately widened like copper bells, and he stood up and pointed at him and cursed: "Okay, Are you a foodie who wants to steal my hard-earned money to subsidize your natal family? Are you blind? I don’t know what’s going on with our family.”

After cursing this sentence, he pointed at his man's nose and couldn't swear anything else, and he couldn't hit a father in front of his children, so he uttered a cruel sentence: "You wait for me to clean up."

He gave his son a hard look again, he was really heartbroken, at this age, he was supposed to be married, if he couldn’t get married, it’s fine, and he didn’t say that he would give him up to some rotten date who couldn’t marry a man , wasting the family's rations, and my mother and I are going to die today, but I still feel sorry for the two money. Those who don't know think that he earned the money.

My own man is also the same, as expected the ancients are right, men are born with white eyes, cheap bones, they have to be beaten to be honest.

Even the man in the corner who was bending over and lowering his head in a half squat was also affected.

He spat at him: "This is also a heartless white-eyed wolf. I spent so much money to buy it, and it is useless except for a few mouthfuls of food every day."

In my heart, I still look at my two daughters and my mother comfortably, especially the worried look of my eldest daughter, and I wish she was the one who wanted to die.

Finally, I agree with the little girl a little bit, at least I didn't spend so much money on studying in vain, if it weren't for her few actions just now, I might really be gone.

After recovering, he quickly went to his mother's side, wiped the tears on his mother's face with his sleeve: "Okay, your daughter is fine, you are not dead, I will die, I still have to make money to buy it for you." Where's the coffin?"

The little old lady stared at the little girl in front of her in a daze, and cursed angrily: "Unlucky, don't curse me, I'm dead so you need to eat less food, right? I'll tell you there's no way."

But now is not the time to argue.

Youcai sighed: "Mother, grandma, and little sister, you just stay at home and don't go to harvest the rice. We just go."

This burden can all fall on the body of the eldest sister, is she willing, she must be unwilling to do it out of a hundred, why should it all fall on the younger sister, and bear all the bad ones by herself.

But even if he doesn't want to, what can he do? The tax is about to be collected, and he will definitely not be able to catch up. The family still has some food and wine from last year. When the time comes, I will send it to the village chief. I beg for a few days' delay.

If you can't pay the tax, you will be dragged to be a big soldier to offset the tax. Either the old lady will go or go by yourself. No matter what happens, it will not be the younger sister's turn. If you let the old lady go, then you will definitely be called unfilial. , How do you live in Wenjia Village?

Both left and right are suffering on their own, how can I suffer so much, the more I think about it, the more wronged I feel, the more sad I feel, a big strong woman burst into tears of grievance, but in the end it all melted into sweat, turned grievance into motivation, and closed her hands The speed of the rice is much faster.

A young man with a floral turban and a large basket pretended to be passing by, and casually glanced at the half-squatting man who was also working hard.

His eyes were red, and his tears were filled with jealousy. It was this man who took his place next to Sister Cai.

Youcai naturally found out too, but he didn't dare to look at the little man. He knew what was going on in his mind. Just because his eyes were blind didn't mean he didn't know.

Unmarried men in public are not allowed to talk much, especially when talking to women, otherwise it will definitely be a gossip all over the village, and it will affect life.

He also knew about the situation at Sister Cai's house, and there was a small bag of steamed buns in the basket that was quietly prepared for them. He heard that Aunt Fugui's family was already hungry.

That elder sister Cai worked so hard, so what if she was starving, even if she couldn't marry elder sister Cai, she still couldn't help feeling distressed.

He greeted Wen Jinmei abruptly: "Brother Jin, I haven't congratulated you on your family's wedding yet. These are for you, as gifts, don't let my father know."

After speaking, he threw the contents of the basket in the past.

Wen Jinmei didn't accept it or didn't accept it, and he didn't know it in his heart. After all, the elder sister's affairs were like a bright mirror in the family's hearts.

He wants to collect it. Now the women in the family eat two sweet potatoes divided into two tons a day, and the men, younger sisters and grandma eat half of each meal, and drink water when they are hungry.

It is impossible not to be hungry.

Wen Jinmei looked at the eldest sister and accepted it without saying a word: "Thank you, brother Jiao Jiao."

"You're welcome, I have to deliver food to my mother and the others."

Wen Jiao forced a smile, looked at Sister Cai reluctantly, and left.

Wen Jinmei didn't open the cloth bag, and gave it to the elder sister directly, after all, it wasn't something for herself.

Youcai sat down and rested for a while, and carried it over to open the cloth bag by himself. The father was still terrified and immersed in his wife's words, and didn't care about it.

The cloth bag is not big, there are only three steamed buns and a boiled egg inside.

One must know how much food is cooked at ordinary people's homes, especially food, even if there is a small amount of money at home.

There is also a boiled egg, which must have been hidden for himself with great pains. If his father, that miser, finds out, he might be beaten up.

Immediately moved my heart.

Secretly put the egg in the heart and hide it, and put the cloth bag in the rice pile, so as not to be seen by outsiders.

Thinking about these three buns, how should the whole family be divided.
