Chapter 59 The Poor Little One Killed by Uncle 15
A few days later, every household in the village began to break the corn. Xiao Yuanchun found all the bags containing corn from last year and gave them to the aunt.
This year, the uncle will help her harvest the food in the field. Next year, the land will be rented to the uncle and aunt for planting, and she can just sit back and wait for the food to be harvested.
The Yuanchun family only has three acres of land. The uncle and his family worked hard all morning, and all the corn was delivered to the Yuanchun family’s yard.
Looking at the small mountain of corn piled up, Yuan Chun smiled with crooked eyebrows and warmly invited, "Uncle, aunt, cousin... I've cooked. You can eat at my place at noon. It saves money." My aunt went home to do it.”
"Okay, then I won't be polite to you."
After Liu Tielin entered the hospital, he smelled the smell of meat. Knowing that Xiao Yuanchun had specially prepared a meal for them, he would not reject the child's wish.
When the aunt saw a table full of vegetables and two meat dishes, she couldn't help but say, "Yuanchun, why are you still buying meat? We have cabbage and potatoes at home. Just fry them and eat them. It's a waste of that." What does money do?"
Yuan Chun grinned, "Auntie, that's not the case. I bought them yesterday when I went up the mountain to catch them. I was lucky and caught a hare and a pheasant, which gave us two meat dishes.” I had a plate of stir-fried shredded pickled radish, Chinese cabbage stewed with tofu, fungus eggs, and a plate of spicy cabbage.
With six dishes, everyone was full and full.
While eating, the eldest cousin also told her something, "The corn of Tiezhu's family was stolen, and a large area was empty in the middle of the field. At least 30% of the six acres of land was stolen. Ertang Shu Ertang My aunt was so anxious that she cried and cursed all morning, until her voice became hoarse.”
Yuan Chun pretended to be surprised, “Who is so bold to steal so much corn?” ?”
Cousin: “I don’t know when the corn was lost. It’s useless to report this kind of thing. If you don’t catch it, who can admit it?” The aunt said, "Your second uncle has been having a lot of bad luck recently. He lost money before and now he has lost food. It's enough for him and his wife."
The uncle said worriedly, "I borrowed the money for Tiezhu and his wife to be hospitalized for leg treatment. I promised to pay them back after Tiezhu sold the grain, but now... I'm afraid I won't be able to pay it back this year."< br>
Auntie: "Then just wait a minute, no one is in trouble yet, it's not like you won't pay it back, it's not that the food has been stolen."< br>
Uncle: "Well, in the evening, I will go door to door to talk about this situation. I borrowed the money, but now something has happened and the iron pillar has not been restored. I should also tell everyone."
After dinner, the aunt and her family hurried to work in their fields, and Xiao Yuanchun went to the mountains outside the village with a small basket on his back.
Three hours later, Yuanchun went down the mountain carrying baskets of wild vegetables, mushrooms and wild fruits.
There are also twenty-six more pheasants and hares in the Jade Gourd space.
After returning home, Yuanchun began to kill rabbits and chickens, preparing to dry more chickens and rabbits. Some of them were reserved for the three-year drought, and some were made into cooked food and sent to her father's army and to his comrades. eat.
They had collected so much money for her and specially sent her a pension. She had to give her some gift in return. After all, life was difficult for everyone in these days. They could only raise two hundred yuan. Money is also saved from the cracks in the mouth.
Xiao Yuanchun handled the pheasants and rabbits neatly, washing, cutting and pickling them. She was busy until the evening. Then, she estimated the time and made another large pot of pheasant stewed with potato cubes, which also contained Dried pine mushrooms and dried tofu skin.
