Chapter 24

After rejecting Jiawang's adoption, Li Xiaohong felt relieved all of a sudden.Ever since she was reborn, a tight string has been stretched in her heart, she has filled up her time every day, thinking about trying her best to change her life at home, fearing what will happen if she is like her previous life again.

Neither her father's job nor her mother's small shop can make her feel much easier. Now, the adoption that has been worrying about is finally not as successful as in her previous life, and she feels that her life has really changed.Then, the health of parents and life at home will gradually get better and better.

Once she let go of the burden in her heart, Li Xiaohong became more lively this Spring Festival. Li Zhijun and Zhang Meiying, who saw her performance, were also relieved, feeling that their decision was right.What's the point of adopting if it doesn't make life better for the children?Besides, depending on the situation of the two sisters, whether there is an older brother to support them is a trivial matter.

Fei Xiang's two songs, one "A Hand of Fire" and the other "Clouds of Hometown" became very popular in the mainland this year, and they were sung across the country, and their popularity will not decrease in the next few years.

People in the village don't know about it, but that doesn't stop it from becoming popular.

No matter where it is, there may be a sentence next to it: You are like that fire, and the blazing flame burns my heart.

On this day, Li Xiaohong thought that it was winter vacation, and as a child, he couldn't stop studying every day.I just finished practicing big characters and wanted to rest, and I was going to play with Wei Lijun for a while.

The people I met were all wearing new cotton clothes and smiling when they met.This year, the weather is good, the harvest is good, and there is a peaceful and happy atmosphere everywhere.

Walking halfway, I saw a group of children gathered around, watching the one in the middle singing.The singing kid also held a branch in his hand in a weird way, imitating Fei Xiang's movements.The kid next to him clapped his hands and yelled, "Okay, one more."

An adult came over and reprimanded, what kind of fire is it, be careful it burns.Don't look at what Xiaohong is doing.Read more books when you have time, and next time you do so poorly in the exam, be careful that I will beat your ass like it's on fire.

Li Xiaohong on the side of the road: This is really getting shot while walking.

The kid made a strange face, and the others scattered as well.

In fact, the child can sing well, and the movements are similar. If you are in the city, there are probably parents who will be happy to send their children to learn, hoping that the children can have more skills.

But being born in this village, the adults know that the only way out is to study, get into a university, and have a solid job, and everything else is considered to be idle.Besides, even if you want your children to learn other things, there is no one to teach them.These are still some knowledgeable parents, and more, they just hang around with their children for a few years and just know a few words. Anyway, if they can't get into college, why don't they come back to work in agriculture?

It's not that people in big cities look down on small cities, and those in small cities look down on villages, or that in the age of the Internet, people living in different places will have a lot of difference in knowledge.Not so many people want to go to the big cities. Children in the countryside have never even heard of things that children in the city are familiar with.Not to mention the tilt of educational resources and medical resources, the difference is too great.

Li Xiaohong walked and thought, it was only a few minutes away, and he will arrive soon.

A group of people in Wei Lijun's family are still watching TV. During the slack season, there is nothing to do except playing cards and watching TV.

Seeing Li Xiaohong, Wei Lijun was very happy.

"Come on, Xiaohong, just watch TV, you don't know, four episodes are broadcast a day, only during the Spring Festival can watching TV be so enjoyable!"

Li Xiaohong glanced at the TV, it was a Hong Kong TV series broadcast by a local station, it was obviously fake.But at this time, compared with those TV shows that are all preaching, it is a rare entertainment.

After watching it for a few minutes, the TV screen went black with a "snap".

Someone joked: "Xiaohong, you see, even God doesn't want you to watch TV, and the TV screen went black after you came for a few minutes."

"Ah, sister Xiaohong, are you so good? Tell God to fix the TV." A child said foolishly.

Everyone laughed coquettishly.

"That's not it, you sister Xiaohong is amazing, if you have any wish, please make it quickly." An adult teased him.

"Then sister Xiaohong, can you tell my dad not to spank my butt?" The child rubbed his little butt.

Everyone laughed again.

"Stupid, I don't care about Xiaohong's affairs. It's a power outage, and the lights don't turn on without looking at them." Wei Lijun pulled the light cord.

"Zhu Zhu, quickly take off the battery on your tractor, let's generate electricity."

"Yeah, I'm seeing the key point, I'm so anxious."

"No, that's too much fuel consumption. I've run out of gas in the car, and I have a little left for my relatives to use."

"Just dig it."

"Then get your electric motor, we use bicycles to generate electricity."

A few men fiddled for a while, using something to prop up the bicycle, and they didn't know how to connect it.

The most anxious one immediately sat on the bicycle and kicked up.

"It's done, it's done!" The child cheered.

Sure enough, the power generation was successful, and Li Xiaohong couldn't help admiring their imagination and hands-on ability.

That is, the image appeared for a while and then turned into a snowflake, and the sound was also intermittent.

"Oh, this voltage is too unstable!"

"Pedal more steadily, don't go fast and slow for a while, if you continue like this, you won't be able to see it."

Without even a voltage regulator, the voltage will naturally not stabilize.

Suddenly there was no picture on the TV again.

"Bastard, have you been squeezed dry by your wife, hurry up! Don't stop!"

The man obediently pedaled quickly, and the wheels of the bicycle turned quickly.

The images gradually become continuous, even though they flicker badly, but it does not affect viewing.

"I'm so tired, who will pick me up?" After pedaling for a while, the man gasped and said.

Then another person quickly replaced him and sat on the bicycle.

"The picture is too shaky, so be careful to be short-sighted." Li Xiaohong didn't plan to look at it any more, and reminded Wei Lijun.

"It's okay, my eyes are fine."

That's right, no one in the village is short-sighted except my father.

After lunch, the distant relatives at home were preparing to leave.

Looking at the lard that had solidified together in the basin, Zhang Meiying felt sorry.I bought half a pig this year, which weighed more than 100 catties.

The pigs are raised by the villagers themselves. They have grown for almost a year, and in some places the fat is as thick as four fingers.After listening to my daughter's words, I filled some sausages with some fat and lean meat.There is still too much fat left, and there is a big pot of refined oil.

My daughter is not allowed to eat too much fat for fear of getting sick.In fact, in these years, I couldn’t get enough to eat. How could I hear that I got sick from eating too much oil?

However, my daughter has always loved reading, and her knowledge is getting wider and wider, and I haven't made any mistakes in listening to her.Lest the child worry, let's not eat it.It's really distressing to see so much oil that I can't eat at home.Fortunately, they all gave away relatives, and each family gave a small pot before leaving, which is not too pity.

"Xiaohong, let's eat this oil by ourselves, there is not much left."

"Mom, there is already a lot of oil on the meat we eat. Look at the bones of your boiled meat. After it cools down, there is a thick layer of white oil on the surface of the soup. It is still a bone, even if there is some meat, it is still lean meat , There is still fat after cooking the soup. Just listen to me, the newspaper said that if you eat too much of this kind of oil, your blood vessels will be blocked.”

At this time, many households in their village had drilled wells and started using groundwater.The water quality is good, but it is particularly easy to scale. The kettle needs to be cleaned after a while, otherwise the water under the kettle cannot be drunk at all.

At this time, Li Xiaohong let Zhang Meiying watch it, telling her over and over again that people's blood vessels will become fouled like a kettle if they eat too much lard.After a long time, Zhang Meiying also heard a lot, but she was still reluctant to see that she couldn't eat the food that cost so much money.

Seeing her mother's hesitation, Li Xiaohong continued to persuade her: "Our family is not short of this little money now, and I will earn more money for you to spend in the future. Don't be sorry for this little oil, Mom. Usually, our family eats only a little oil. Big, I really can’t eat lard anymore.”

"But it's different for relatives. Our relatives are not rich. Usually, who would be willing to put more oil in cooking? He also thanked us for giving him oil. Think about it, using oil that our family doesn't need in exchange for relatives' thanks, isn't that Is it a good deal? Good health comes first, and as my dad and you two get older, you need to pay special attention to your health."

"My body is fine at all, look, it's great." As she spoke, Zhang Meiying stretched out her arms and made a show.

"I know you're fine, and you're in good health now, but it will be too late if something happens, so we take precautions. To put it bluntly, it's like the vaccinations given to our chickens. After the injection, this disease It will not be born. We should pay attention to prevention at ordinary times, so as not to get sick."

"You child, what do you say, compare your mother with a chicken." Zhang Meiying laughed back angrily, and knocked Li Xiaohong on the head.

Li Xiaohong touched her head that was knocked but didn't hurt at all, and said, "Metaphor, I'm just a metaphor, mom, please don't knock me again, you don't feel bad if you knock me stupid."

"I feel sorry for the ghost, I feel sorry for the chicken and I don't feel sorry for you!" Zhang Meiying glared at Li Xiaohong.

"Okay, it's okay to feel sorry for the chicken, but don't feel sorry for the oil anymore."

"I know, mom is uneducated and doesn't know as much as you, but I also know that good health is the most important thing. Don't worry, mom will listen to you, and our family will not eat lard in the future. When I go back to buy meat, even if it is more expensive , I asked them to cut more lean meat for me."

It was a distant relative who came to the house this day. Seeing that he wanted to give him some oil, he was embarrassed and said: "Why is this so embarrassing, come to see you, why don't you take things away?"

"You take it. We fry more oil this year. The two children in the family have weak stomachs. The lard is too greasy, so I dare not let them eat too much."

The relatives didn't expect to have a meal, and there was oil to take when they left, and they looked grateful.

Because of the reasons she said, the relatives sighed a while when they left, feeling that people are really not perfect, the two sisters Li Xiaohong are smart, they are smart, and their small bodies are too weak.My own children are as strong as one and a half of Li Xiaohong, but they are studying too reluctantly.
