The story of the struggle of the poor girl who crossed

Chapter 12

"That's fine, Dad will just sleep for a while, I really can't hold it anymore." Before the words finished, the man had already collapsed on the bed, and soon fell asleep.

An hour later, Mai Xiang called Liang Gaoshan up: "Daddy, get up quickly, we have to hurry home!"

As soon as she shouted, Liang Gaoshan woke up immediately.

The two of them had enough to eat, so they hired a carriage and went straight to Huaishu Town.When they arrived at Huaishu Town, Liang Gaoshan sent the carriage away, and said to Mai Xiang, "Let's buy some food in the town and go back!"

Mai Xiang: "Well, buy ten catties of fine wheat flour, ten catties of high-quality rice, and thirty catties of sorghum. In addition, we will pull five feet of fine cotton cloth to make clothes and diapers for Xiao Wu, and buy twenty eggs for mother. Eat. Find a big pharmacy and grab some medicine for mother!"

Liang Gaoshan: "Well, you are still thoughtful, your brother is only so young, you can't just eat rice cereal!"

Mai Xiang: "By the way, let's buy a few more pig bones and a few catties of soybeans!" At this time, there is no fodder to feed the sheep, otherwise, you can buy a lamb.

"Okay, I'll listen to you!" Liang Gaoshan unconditionally agreed with his daughter's words.Although he didn't think there was anything good to buy about pork bones, but since his daughter said she wanted to buy it, let's buy it!Anyway, the money is not bad now.

Mai Xiang took a deep breath, and smiled from the bottom of her heart.Hehe, it's a good feeling to have a father controlled by a daughter.

After shopping, it was lunch time again. The father and daughter were full, so they took a bullock cart to Liangjia'ao.

Feeling timid near the hometown, Mai Xiang suddenly felt very uneasy.

Next, how will she face this quaint farmhouse life?Or, how can she work hard to live an ordinary and happy life in this ancient small mountain village?

Back home, the grandmother grabbed Mai Xiang, hugged her and cried hard: "My poor granddaughter, you finally came back safely!"

"Grandma, don't be sad. We have gained a lot by going into the mountains this time. From now on, we don't have to worry about food and clothing for the whole family!" Mai Xiang broke free without a trace. This is only the second meeting with the old grandmother.

The last time we met, she didn't even have time to say a word to her grandmother, so she went into the mountains with her father and second brother.

Liang Gaoshan also said: "Mother, don't be sad, Mai Xiang and I have brought them back many times. You can drink the water, and Mai Xiang and I will go to the mountains to fetch water once every three days in the future, so don't worry if we finish drinking it!"

Mai Xiang said to Huashi: "Mother, Dad and I bought fine rice, you hurry up and use a stone mortar to pound it into powder, and make porridge for Xiao Wu!" In my memory, there was a very small stone mortar at home.

Fahrenheit was stunned for a moment, then said: "I'll take it to the stone mill in the village, it will be faster!"

Mai Xiang hurriedly dissuaded: "Mother, our family has good rice to eat, this matter must not be known to outsiders. Otherwise, the housework will be peaceful, and maybe it will attract robbers!"

Liang Gaoshan: "That's right, the child's mother, listen to Mai Xiang's words, and use a stone mortar to pound it at home. Tomorrow, I will go to the stonemason in the next village to order a small stone mill, and you will be patient for a few more days."

Mai Xiang: "Mom, clean the mortar, and I'll make rice noodles later!" She almost forgot that she is a strong man now.

Fahrenheit: "No, I'll let your second brother do the work today. You just came back, you must be very tired, right? Take a good rest, and help mother make rice noodles tomorrow." Cheap mother looked at her daughter distressedly, if she was not still in confinement , she definitely wants to make rice noodles herself, so she is not willing to let her children suffer.

The second brother Banxia also hurriedly said: "Eldest sister, you should rest well, I will leave this small matter to me!"
