Chapter 44 Grandpa’s helplessness, with a little help
Otherwise, save some food, not to mention two meals, it is possible to eat for several days. In this era of lack of food and clothing, you can have food. That’s good, I want to eat more meat.
After eating and drinking enough, Li Jia wrapped up the remaining pig head meat and put it into the still space first.
I will take this out when I get home. If I take it out now on such a hot day, it will probably be broken when I get home.
After drinking a large amount of spiritual spring from an enamel jar, I went into the house and slept for a while.
By the time he woke up, it was almost time to go back.
Coming out of the space, Li Jiayi took a detour and came to the west end of the commune.
Some people have come back, but not all of them have come back, but all the people who came to the commune to sell cattle have come back.
Not only that, all the cattle they moved here were also sold. Seeing how happy they were, you knew they must have gotten a good price.
Three people came to sell cattle today. They probably did this on purpose. Also, if they brought all the cattle in the village to sell them at once, it would definitely make others suspicious.
An hour later, everyone came back and the bullock cart drove towards the village.
After another two hours, the group returned to the village. Again, Grandpa Six did not take his money.
Not only that, Grandpa Six also told him that from now on he would not have to pay for riding in a bullock cart. This was said by the captain.
As for the money he paid for riding the bullock cart, the brigade will make up for it.
This left him speechless, and it wasn’t about how much money it was, so was that the case? He can still miss a few cents.
But he also knows that this is not a matter of money, it is an attitude of the village.
How many times a year can he come! Five cents a time, even twenty times, it's only a dollar.
As he approached the door of grandma's house, Li Jiayi took out the pig head meat from the space, and also took out two pig trotters.
"Grandma, I'm back." Li Jiayi shouted as soon as he arrived at the gate.
“You brat, you didn’t say anything to me when you went to the commune. If someone hadn’t seen you riding a bullock cart to the commune, they wouldn’t know how to find you.”
"Uh!" Li Jiayi scratched his head, he really forgot about this.
"Okay, have you had lunch?"
"I have eaten grandma, and I also bought some good things." After speaking, he patted his schoolbag.
"What good thing is it?" Grandpa came out of the house at this time and happened to hear what he said, so he asked casually.
"Grandpa, look." Li Jiayi took out two oil paper bags, one big and one small.
The big one is of course wrapped with pig head meat, and the small one is wrapped with pig's trotters.
Li Jia placed two oil paper bags on the Little Eight Immortals table in the yard and opened them directly.
"Pig head meat, these are pig trotters." Grandpa looked at him in surprise and said.
“Hmm!”
Both grandpa and grandma swallowed their saliva, mainly because the taste was so delicious.
Grandma immediately came over and rewrapped the oil paper bag, then took it and walked into the house.
As he walked, he said: "Eat this until tonight. Call the boss and his family over."
If there were less, grandma would definitely keep it for Li Jiayi, but with so much, then It's different.
"Okay." Grandpa nodded and asked: "Can you leave me a pig's trotter? I'll drink later."
"Leave whatever you want, even if it is, it's okay. Leave it to my eldest grandson, so much pork head meat, isn’t it enough for you to drink?”
Grandpa is very helpless! Because grandma said so, it means it can’t be done.
Li Jiayi dug into his schoolbag again, and another small paper bag appeared in front of his grandfather.
Turning around to see that grandma had entered the house, Li Jia said in a low voice: "Grandpa, I left one for you."
In fact, it was not left behind, but just from space. Taken out.
"It's better for my eldest grandson." Grandpa said after picking up the oil paper bag and went to the kitchen.
Probably looking for a place to put the pig's trotters. Of course, grandpa is not a greedy person, mainly because he brings back too much.
"Grandma, I'm going to call the uncle and aunt." Li Jia called to the room.
"Okay, you go! Come back quickly."
"I got it."
When he went to his uncle's house, Li Jiayi no longer needed to carry his schoolbag and water bottle. He just took them off and ran to the village.
A few minutes later, he arrived at the uncle's house. The door was open, so he walked in directly.
Auntie was choosing vegetables in the yard. She was sure he was coming, so she quickly put down the vegetables and asked, "Jiayi, why are you here? Sit down quickly."
"Auntie, where is my uncle? "
"Your uncle went to the captain's house to discuss the matter of transporting food back in the evening."
"That's it!"
"What's the matter? What's the matter with you coming here?" asked the aunt.
"My grandma asked you and your uncle to have dinner there at night, so I asked you to come and call you."
"Okay, I understand. I will tell your uncle when he comes back."
"Yes!" Li Jia nodded and asked, "By the way, aunt, where are my brother and the others?"
"Who knows where they went to play, don't worry about them, they can't be lost anyway."
Also, Lijia Village has no village in front and no store in the back, and the other villages are far away. As long as you don't go into the mountains, it's There won't be any danger.
"Well, aunt, I will go back first. When uncle and my brother come back later, just go directly there."
"Okay, I understand."
When Li Jiayi returned home, grandma was mixing noodles in the kitchen. The flour she mixed was not white flour, but corn flour.
There are more people in the evening, so you must make more pancakes, otherwise there won’t be enough food.
As soon as Li Jia arrived home, there was not much meeting, and the aunt came over with her cousin.
I didn’t see my uncle and my first cousin and my second cousin. It seems they haven’t come back yet.
As for why the aunt came so early, of course she came to help. With so many people eating, how could she let the old lady do it alone.
As for the uncle and two cousins, there is no need to worry about it at all. When they get home and see that there is no cooking, they will come over naturally.
"Brother Jiayi." The cousin let go of her mother and ran to Li Jiayi.
"Yeah!" He rubbed her head, then took her schoolbag over and took out a few toffees from it.
“Here, I’ll give it to you, but you can’t eat it all at once. It’s not good to eat too much sugar.”
“Brother Jiayi, sugar is so delicious! Why is it bad to eat too much? ?" Li Jiafen asked confused.
In her opinion, sugar is the most delicious thing after meat.
"Because if you eat too much sugar, moths will grow, and the moths will eat away your teeth. If you eat too much sugar, you will have no teeth in the future."
"Ah!" Li Jiafen shouted and quickly covered her mouth. Li Jiayi said: "Brother Jiayi, I won't eat sweets anymore."
Li Jiayi rubbed it helplessly Her head said: "You can still eat sugar, but you can't eat too much. If you eat too much, you will get moths. If you eat less, it will be fine."
"That's it! I know Brother Jiayi. Just eat one.”
“That’s right, you must not eat more.”
He is not coaxing a child, eating too much sugar is really not good.
