Era: Retired from the army at the beginning and returned home.

Chapter 47

A total of eleven steamed buns were brought, and the father gave two to each of the younger brothers, leaving seven.Luo Cheng didn't plan to eat, he wasn't hungry, and he wasn't polite about the noon treat, he ate a lot, and his stomach was full of greasy water.

Mom and grandma also left the room when they heard Dad's shout just now.Grandma's walking is obviously stronger than when Luo Cheng first arrived.

"Chengzi, come back, why are you buying steamed buns again? You don't have many food stamps, don't send them out indiscriminately."

"Grandson, come to grandma, it's okay to go to the city."

The steamed buns are not for sale, but this matter will be explained later. Hearing grandma's call, Luo Cheng walked over immediately.Then he continued to say to Shishi: "Give grandma a steamed bun, and the rest are you, sister, and mom."

Hearing Luo Cheng's words, Shishi originally wanted to continue catching steamed buns.I was stunned for a moment, why is there only one grandma? Although it is said that in rural areas, men eat first, and then young people, but it was the elders who took the initiative to give in.For example, if grandma arranges these eleven steamed buns, she will definitely take the initiative to eat less.

But as a junior, Luo Cheng took the initiative to arrange for the elders to eat less.

"Brother, I'm still young. One is enough for me. Give grandma two steamed buns."

Luo Shishi voluntarily backed down and said, but the hand that grandma had just held onto Luo Cheng's arm affectionately tightened slightly.

"Listen to your brother, grandma is too old to eat so much."

The atmosphere of the scene suddenly became a bit delicate. Seeing that the younger sister and the mother were hesitant to speak, they seemed to want to say something, but they held back and didn't say anything.

As the pillar of the family, Luo Wen also felt that he had to stand up and say something. He wanted to take a step forward, but his feet seemed to be rooted and he couldn't lift them up.

As parents, when they get old, they will have to rely on the eldest son.But Luo Cheng's behavior today, as a father, wants to teach Luo Cheng something.But what if things don't develop as you want after teaching.

Just now, he and his youngest son had dirt on their hands and wanted to eat steamed buns directly, but they were all controlled.He has been at home for many years, and since Luo Wen became the head of the family, no one really took care of him. At most, he just wanted to talk about some things. If he wanted to listen, he had to do what he wanted.

"Dad, here comes the water, I'll pour it for you, you come and wash."

Luo Bing filled a spoonful of water at this time, and the spoon was the kind that cut a big gourd in half, and there was a lot of water in one spoonful.

Luo Cheng was also a little baffled, as if he felt that the atmosphere was not right, but he didn't think about the distribution of steamed buns.If he knew what his family thought, he would die of grievance.He is very partial to grandma.

"Grandma, you should eat less now, and I will let my mother make you a meatloaf soup later. You have to nourish your body. Older people should not eat too much. This steamed bun is not small. Just eat a pad and eat it." OK."

Luo Cheng smiled and said in grandma's ear, as for grandma's saying that she couldn't eat so much when she was too old, he didn't believe it. Grandma was so happy when her uncle and aunt came to the house the day before yesterday. She also drank two bowls of porridge and ate a bun.

Meatloaf soup, what a joke, you can't eat any meat during Chinese New Year and holidays, but now you can eat meat for no reason.

"Shishi, the bottom of the backpack, the one wrapped in oil paper, contains two catties of meat, give it to my mother, I will make a meat pie soup for grandma later, we will also eat a little meat tonight."

Luo Shishi was really a little frightened. There were still two catties of meat in the backpack carried by her brother.He even brought back two catties of meat from the train station just now.

The steamed buns are placed on top, and the cotton gauze that the two younger sisters asked for is placed in the middle. Because the width is not wide, even if it is five feet long, it is not very thick when stacked together.Then there is the wrapped meat underneath.

Because the meat was to be taken, the cotton gauze couldn't hide it, so it had to be taken out in front of everyone.As soon as this thing is taken out, the rural people will know what it is for at a glance.These two girls are so amazing that they even asked the eldest son who came to the city to bring things in private.But this is indeed something that women need, and the two girls are not too young, so that is what they bought. If they are other things, their parents will definitely talk to them at night.

Luo Shishi took out a large package of oiled paper, and his mother immediately stepped forward to take it in her hand, without opening the oiled paper, she went into the room immediately.The others also followed into the room tacitly.

Steamed buns are very fragrant, but they can't resist people's desire for meat.I didn't tear off the oiled paper eagerly, but carefully and slowly unwrapped the oiled paper in the order of the packages.

When a two-pound piece of pork belly appeared in front of everyone, except for Luo Cheng, everyone felt their breathing slowed down and stared straight at it.Especially Luo Bing, he felt that he could eat the piece of raw meat in front of him.

The only fly in the ointment is that everyone feels that the fat of this piece of meat is not thick, that is, there is little fat.

How to eat this piece of meat, really plan carefully.Luo Bing looked at the meat, took a few mouthfuls of a steamed bun, and felt that the steamed bun smelled like meat.

Give points to uncles and aunts, it's okay, but it's not necessary.If they can't survive and can't get rid of the pot, even if they don't have enough food, they will give them some food.But they have no elders to support, and grandma follows father.

"Chengzi, can Mom ask you something?"

My mother, Zhang Ling, stared at the meat for a while, then suddenly said to Luo Cheng, and anyone with a discerning eye would know that it had something to do with the meat.

"Mom, don't be like this, there is nothing we can't ask for."

Father and grandma stood aside without saying a word, because they could probably guess what mom asked for.This thing is really embarrassing.

Seeing what Luo Cheng said, my mother opened her mouth. Just as my father and grandma guessed, it was about a nephew from my mother Zhang Ling's natal family.

It can also be seen that yesterday, my mother went back to her mother's house. After the uncle and aunt shared the food and left the day before yesterday, they also discussed and agreed to give some to my mother's mother's house.Twenty catties of cornmeal, twenty catties of sweet potatoes.Because father Luo Wen and younger brother Luo Bing were going to work in the brigade, his mother did not bring food to Luo Cheng's uncle's house.

Luo Cheng's uncle is also my mother's brother, and my mother's parents also live with him.I didn't bring food, it's not that I can't resist, forty catties of things are nothing in the hands of my mother, but she, an old woman, dare not bring so much food on the road alone.There have been several incidents of grabbing food in the nearby villages a while ago, which made people panic.

So after my mother went to her mother's house, not long after, the uncle brought his two nephews to their place.He came to get food, and the uncle's eldest son, the eldest nephew on the mother's side, his wife gave birth to a baby two months ago, and now he is almost weaned because there is no food.The whole family is worried, and they are already planning to starve to death. They shouldn't have babies these days.

After my mother heard this, she was more like her own nephew to her, and she even called her aunt.I couldn't hold back yesterday, and took a catty of rice to the eldest nephew, and asked him to go home and make rice soup for a try. After all, he hasn't been completely weaned, but it's almost impossible to send it out.

But everyone knows that if this woman can't keep up with her body, even if the rice soup has the effect of making milk, it won't be of much use.Seeing this meat today, needless to say, my mother thought of her poor niece and daughter-in-law again.
