Rebirth of the beauty of the peasant girl

Chapter 9 Death Gate Star

"Grandma said that these fruits are sour and sweet, and they are easy to appetize, and those who appetize will feel even more hungry." Huzi smiled innocently, squatted on the ground to help her clean up the grass, and continued, "This fruit will not only not fill your stomach. , and it will make people feel hungry, so you can’t eat too much.”

"Is that so..." Liu Qingluo heard such words for the first time.

She gained a deeper understanding of the poverty in the village.

But understanding is understanding, she doesn't care about the saying that eating will make her hungry, she grabbed the cherry and ate it all, and licked her lips with unsatisfied desire.

"I'm so full..." She rubbed her belly, lying on the grass, staring at the sky in a daze.

Since coming here, her stomach felt full for the first time, and she was so happy that she wanted to sneeze and bubbles...

"Niuniu, why is your basket so heavy?" Huzi over there tidied up his things, picked up Liu Qingluo's basket, and asked a little strangely.

Liu Qingluo got up and said with a smile, "I dug up a lot of platycodon roots, brother Huzi, do you want them? There's still a small piece over there."

Huzi opened her basket to have a look, and sure enough, he saw the neat white rhizomes underneath.

He shook his head and said kindly: "What's the use of this, the roots of the grass are too hard, it will hurt the stomach of the cow, I'd better help you mow more grass and go back..."

"These can be used as medicine and sold for money!" Liu Qingluo said crisply.

"These grass roots can also be sold for money?" Huzi didn't believe it, and said with a smile, "Niuniu, if you want to take the grass roots back to play, don't let your grandma see..."

He also helped her cover some more grass in the basket, covering the grass roots tightly.

Liu Qingluo still remembered the agreement with Liu's father last night, Hu Zi asked her to go back together, and she said that she would wait here for her father to go with him.

Huzi was worried about her as a little girl, so he stayed with her. Seeing that she liked to eat the fruit he had picked before, he ran to pick up two coats and came back.

But Liu Qingluo didn't have a big appetite after all, so she couldn't eat so many cherries, so she put them together in a small basket, ready to take them back for her parents, brother and Yushu to eat.

"By the way, brother Huzi, are you hungry?" Liu Qingluo suddenly felt that there was still half a pancake in her pocket, which was stuffed into her pocket by her mother Du Shi secretly.

Huzi swallowed when he saw the pancakes, but still shook his head: "I'm not hungry, Niuniu eats."

Liu Qingluo smiled, split the cake in half, stuffed it into Huzi's hands, and said with a smile: "Brother Huzi picked fruit for me to eat just now, this is an exchange!"

Huzi patted his head honestly and smiled.

At noon, Liu Heping, Mr. Liu and Liu Wenquan came back from the field, and when passing by the hillside, they took Liu Qingluo back together.

Thanks to Huzi's help, the grass she brought back was enough rhubarb to last for two days.

Before entering her house, the fourth aunt Zhang's voice blazed: "Our little girl is back, did you cut off your toes? Why did you cut off your toes?"

Du Shi, who was busy working at the stove, came out as soon as he heard it, and said in a loud voice: "Of course Niuniu cuts grass, and his fourth aunt even has to eat grass?"

A large family lives together, as long as the family is not separated for a day, the things earned home are shared, and they have to be handed over to Mr. Liu and Mrs. Liu for safekeeping.

No one wants to have a little private possession!
So although the action of my fourth aunt Zhang coming forward to turn over the baskets of willows, greens and radishes was disgusting, Mrs. Du couldn't say anything.

Mrs. Zhang came over and looked through Liu Qingluo's small basket, and saw the white grass roots, a pile of green grass and a handful of red wild fruits underneath.

"Hey, what is this?" Mrs. Zhang grabbed a platycodon root and came out, bluffing, "Niu Niu just digs these grass roots for fun?"

One sentence attracted the eyes of Mr. Liu, Mrs. Liu and others.

Mrs. Liu came over to take a look, frowned and said, "Niu Niu, it's not a joke to tell you to go out. You have to mow the grass carefully in the future. The rhubarb at home is still counting on you..."

Liu Qingluo looked up with a chubby face and grinned: "Grandma, I know, I promise not to starve our cows in the future!"

"Look at how stupid this kid is..." Mrs. Zhang covered her mouth and laughed, and looked back at Mrs. Du, "Tsk tsk, I don't think he's so smart after being so fat, you idiot..."

The second aunt Chen in the room looked out, with a disdainful expression on her face.

How can Du Shi feel better when his child is treated as a fool?
When she walked over, she slapped Niu Niu on the buttocks, "You are not allowed to go wild in the future, are you listening?"

Liu Qingluo said in a low voice, "Mother, Niuniu knows."

"Niu Niu, go home and wash your hands and face..." Mrs. Du looked at her fair face, which was flushed from the sun all morning, with sweat all over her neck, and looked at Liu Meili, the second child, sitting comfortably in the room Enjoy the cool, this heart is distressed and uncomfortable.

Liu Qingluo didn't feel anything special, she happily followed her mother back to the house, after washing her hands and face, she took out the cherries, washed them, and gave them to Yushu and Liu Yaoping to eat.

The rest were stuffed into mother's mouth, and some stuffed into Liu's father's mouth, and the family of four ate with laughter.

The grass was mowed today, so she didn't have to go out in the afternoon, so she took out all the roots she had dug up, shook off the soil, and went to ask Du Shi for quick-breaking porcelain pieces to scrape off the rough skin on the roots.

The foundation of the small half of the basket made her tired hands numb. Fortunately, Liu Yaoping came over to help her shave for a while after finishing her needlework.

Even this was scolded by Mrs. Liu.

Liu Yaoping's mother and daughter were already in a state of being dependent on others, and they relied on making needlework every day to sell it to the family. Now that they were wasting their time helping Liu Qingluo with "useless" things, the old lady Liu was of course unhappy.

After scraping off all the rhizomes, she spread them by the well and washed them with cool well water.

"Mother, I want a clean straw mat." She ran to Du's side and tugged at the corner of her clothes.

Although Mrs. Du was busy, she had already seen her tossing around, "Go, go find a piece in the house, don't bother your old lady!"

Liu Qingluo happily ran back to the house, took out the straw mat woven by Father Liu, and spread it in the yard, and then spread the clean and white roots on the straw mat to dry.

"Fat girl, what are you playing with?" The seven-year-old cousin, Liu Yingjun, walked over with his head held high, and when he saw her roots on the ground, he kicked some of them away.

Liu Qingluo was so angry that she wanted to shoot this brat to death, but she was so small, how could she be Liu Yingjun's opponent?
What's more, Mrs. Du didn't allow her to offend the second cousin's cousin.

Liu Yaoping, who was sitting at the door doing needlework with Yushu in his arms, saw her and hurriedly said, "Brother Jun, my sister is young, don't bully her."

"Why did I bully her? Shut up, you loser!" Liu Yingjun raised his chin and looked at her sideways from the corner of his eyes.

Liu Yao's face immediately turned pale, with a hint of sadness in her eyes, she lowered her head and stopped talking.

"Hey, this unlucky boy, talking like that to his own aunt? If you don't teach him a lesson, I'll be sorry for my roots!" Liu Qingluo rolled her eyes, thinking about it.
