When the Ji family came back and saw Ji Huai lying in the courtyard basking in

the sun, their reaction was similar to that of sister Ji, but they were saying

nice things, hoping that Ji Huai would get better soon, but their thoughts

were different.

Ji Huai responded perfunctorily, and continued to make up bamboo baskets

without stopping. If you are looking forward to his good, how can you rush to

split the family in a hurry? Are you afraid of being dragged down by him?

The family love he prayed for was so fragile, even false.

Near noon, Tang Xiu'er came back, and she went to pick up some wild

vegetables. This time I walked a bit far, so I was panting with exhaustion, my

forehead was sweaty, and my face was a little pale.

She has been deprived of nutrition for a long time, and her body is so thin

that she can collapse when blown by the wind. Ji Huai was frightened when he

was walking, and his eyebrows were tightly twisted together.

"I saw that the time was late, so I walked a little bit anxiously." Tang

Xiu'er's feet were really a little weak, and she walked up to him and sat

down, sitting on the steps in front of the door and panting.

"You are still pregnant with a child, so what are you anxious for?" Ji Huai

said lightly, lifting the kettle she put aside this morning, and poured a bowl

of water for her.

Tang Xiu'er took the bowl and drank water, lowered her eyebrows, and listened

obediently.

She has always been very obedient. She listened to Ji's mother before, and

later listened to him. She didn't dare to refuse the words of Ji's sister-in-

law and Ji's sister-in-law.

After Tang Xiu'er finished drinking the water, she saw the bamboo basket he

had made and took it over and looked at it again. He was good-looking and

strong, and he couldn't help but praise, "You made it better than the one you

bought."

He also made some small things from time to time, and she also thought he was

just boring, so she relieved her boredom easily, the more she looked at it,

the more she felt that he made it well.

"Really?" Ji Huai raised his eyebrows, his expression relaxed a lot, and he

seemed to be in a good mood.

"Really." She definitely nodded, and vomited, "The small bamboo basket I

bought in the town last time was not good at all. It was deformed after a few

strokes."

Hearing that, although he did not return, his hand movements accelerated.

Looking at her slightly childish side, an imperceptible smile appeared at the

corner of her mouth.

"I'm going to cook." Tang Xiu'er saw Ji Er's wife come out and stood up.

She went to the room to fetch rice, picked up the bag, her eyes narrowed a

lot, there was only a little rice left in it, and it was probably only enough

for today.

When she went out to the kitchen, she shrank and hid, for fear that Ji Huai

would see it.

In the kitchen.

Tang Xiu'er started washing rice and cooking. When washing the rice, she

reached into the bag, grabbed a little, and then slowly put it down, feeling

that there was too little. Ji Huai was afraid that she would not be full, so

she could only close her eyes and take a little more.

Fortunately, I picked enough wild vegetables today, so I'll cook more wild

vegetables in a while.

I don't know if the chickens lay eggs today, she thought and walked out

quickly.

Sister Ji took advantage of her to leave, bent over and stretched out her hand

to open the rice bag. When she saw that there were less than two handfuls of

rice in it, her eyes showed disgust.

"Today the chicken lay an egg." Tang Xiu'er's voice came back from outside,

she was talking to Ji Huai with a very happy expression.

"Then cook it for you." Ji Huai slowed down and looked up at her.

"No, I have to eat it for you so that you can heal faster, shall I make egg

soup for you?" She grabbed the egg tightly and asked his opinion aloud.

Ji Huai didn't evade her again: "It's okay."

Tang Xiu'er's footsteps were getting closer and closer to the kitchen. Sister

Ji walked aside and saw that she was busy. She walked over and smiled and

said, "Ji Huai looks really good today, she looks much better."

I'm good, but I'm also lame. What can I do in the future?

"Yeah." Tang Xiu'er was still quite happy, nodding her head and smiling at the

corners of her mouth.

"But you have to insist on taking medicine, maybe it will be the same as

before in a few days. If you don't feel bad about the money for taking

medicine, talent is the most important thing." Sister Ji stood aside and

slowly induced.

Tang Xiu'er didn't reply.

She felt that Li Langzhong was really unreliable. He didn't get any better

after taking so many days of medicine, and Ji Huai still hurt so much. It

would be much better if he stopped the medicine for a few days. The thought of

him still suffering so much after spending so much money made her feel bored.

Sister Ji saw that she was silent, her eyes flashed, and she continued, “I’m

all a family, if you have any difficulties, you must tell us. Although the

family is separated, Ji Huai’s business must be my elder brother’s business.

The medicine must be taken! The medicine cannot be stopped."

She still doesn't know that Tang Xiuer likes Ji Huai?

You have to spend money to take medicine, the child can regenerate in the

future, Ji Huai is going to be lame, that's a lifetime thing!

"Thank you Sister-in-law." Tang Xiu'er smiled at her with her lips. She didn't

know if the other party was polite or not, she took it seriously. Ji Huai

still doesn't know how, she can't make any money, for fear it will affect him.

If Sister Ji and the others are willing to help them with money, she would be

grateful.

"You're welcome, are you enough to cook this meal? Would you like me to get

you some rice? By the way, my pickled salted radish can be eaten, I will get

you some, this thing is good for dinner." The attitude became more

enthusiastic, and before Tang Xiu'er refused, she ran to the other side, and

brought a small butterfly to the salted radish.

There are finely crushed chili powder on the salted radish. Tang Xiu'er was

very greedy and hot when she was pregnant, and she couldn't help swallowing

when she smelled it. But she knew Sister Ji was a person who didn't get up

early, so she suddenly showed her courtesy and something was wrong, so she

refused repeatedly, "Thank you Sister-in-law, you can keep it and eat. Ji Huai

is recovering from his wounds and cannot eat.

"He can't eat you." Sister Ji put aside and insisted on giving it to her.

Tang Xiuer had no choice but to accept it, and thanked her sincerely, "Thank

you, sister-in-law."

She is a simple and easily satisfying person. In the past, sister-in-law Ji

and brother-in-law were so mean to them, and sister-in-law Ji treated her

badly. At this moment, she felt a little better. Everyone didn't seem to be

that bad, and she took the initiative to say, "Tomorrow I will pick wild

vegetables, and I will pick some for my sister-in-law."

If others treat her well, she will pay back three points.

"No, you can save it to eat, and eat more dishes." Sister Ji rarely said no.

After speaking, she looked at her belly and then looked at the rice bag,

pretending to be unintentional, "Do you know the Li family? 'S daughter?

That's the one who hired the son-in-law."

"Yes." Tang Xiuer responded. Seeing the water boiled, I put wild vegetables in

it, stirred it again, and put the eggs aside carefully.

The Li family opened a bakery in the town. The Li family’s daughter is a

little fat, wearing gold and silver, likes rouge and gouache, and she loves

beauty.

"Yeah, I hired a door-to-door son-in-law. I have been married for so long, and

there is no movement in my stomach. The Li family has only one daughter. No, I

heard that I will'adopt' a child to inherit the Li family's family business."

As he spoke, he raised his voice and slowly said, "You said that the Li family

has such a big family business, and there are no children? I must adopt one.

The child will definitely eat spicy food as soon as he enters, and he will be

the child of a big family. He will eat and drink for a lifetime. No worries."

Tang Xiu'er didn't listen very much, but the more she heard it, the more she

felt something was wrong, and her egg-beating hand slowed down, and she didn't

make a sound.

Seeing that she was silent, Sister Ji continued to say, “It’s difficult to

raise a child now. In recent years, Chengdu has not been good enough. It is

said that many people have taken the initiative to send their children to

their homes, and they have asked their nurses and maids to take care of them.

The Li family also It's very kind, and it will definitely lead a good life

after being sent in, and the benefits will certainly not be lost.

If it were the past, Tang Xiu'er might find it understandable. But after

becoming a mother, the child is connected to her own heart. If it is not that

there is nowhere to go and desperate, which mother is willing to give her own

child to someone else to raise?

She poured the egg in, flipped it with a shovel, and asked, "Will the old lady

be willing to send the two of them to the big family to live a good life?"

"I" sister-in-law Ji choked for a while.

Of course she didn't want to. Her son was born desperately and sent to a big

family to live a good life. How could she still recognize her as a mother?

At that time, I don't even know who she is.

"That's not it, I sent a heart and hung it." Tang Xiuer saw that the eggs were

cooked, took the bowl, filled the egg soup, and went to work again.

Sister Ji stood aside, but Tang Xiu'er didn't talk to the other party again.

When the meal was cooked and left, Xiaodie's salted radish did not take away.

The sister-in-law Ji is angry, but she doesn’t know what’s good or bad, “Ji

Huai still doesn’t know when he will be well, what will you raise the baby?

Where can the midwife go? People will give Ji Huai a large sum of money.

Doctor, he can heal his leg! I don't mean anything else, just tell you."

"Furthermore, what benefit can I get? It's nothing more than I think you are

difficult. When the time comes, the children will suffer hardships along with

them. What do you eat during confinement? Is it possible to become a family of

three?

"I think there is no more rice in your rice bag. I'll give you some."

Sister Ji made it clear, and she had to pretend to be considerate of them.

"No need." Tang Xiu'er paused, refusing so decisively and tough for the first

time.

She knew that Sister Ji was okay. They didn't want to give such charity.

Wouldn't that let her sell the children?

When she walked out the door, Tang Xiu'er seemed to hear Sister Ji's snorting,

as if she was laughing at her ignorance and stupidity. The sky changed a bit,

and a cool breeze blew her, her body shrank, and a cold air came from the

soles of her feet, and her whole body followed by chills.

Inside the debris house.

The two of them sat on the bed with a broken but clean table on which was

padded with things on the corners of the table.

Tang Xiu'er pushed the egg soup in front of him and told him to drink it while

it was hot.

"You drink." Ji Huai picked up a bowl for dinner and pushed the egg soup back.

"I do not"

Before she could finish her words, he looked up and said to her, "Since the

two of you don't drink, then give it to the child."

Tang Xiuer: ""

Isn't she drinking it?

I couldn't hold back Ji Huai, and the other party did not coax, so he directly

pushed the egg soup in front of her and signaled her to drink it quickly.

"How about one person and half?" She was not willing to drink all of it. She

always wanted to give him something to eat first. Besides, he is still sick.

He used to like eggs very much. Now he has eaten wild vegetables for half a

month.

"An egg doesn't need to be divided into two halves. After I'm done, I will set

a trap and grab some game to eat." Ji Huai waved his hand, seemingly

indifferent, and finished the meal in twos or twos. Half of the wild

vegetables are left on the table, but his meal has already been eaten.

"The mountains are dangerous, don't go." Tang Xiu'er was anxious when he heard

that he was going to set a trap.

Ji Huai answered: "It is not necessary to enter the mountain. I know where it

is safe and where it is dangerous."

She didn't understand this and didn't dare to refute it. Can only ask him if

he wants to eat more.

Ji Huai shook his head, "I'm full, you eat."

Tang Xiuer was eating silently. Xu Shi had something in her heart. She drank

the egg soup and it didn't taste fragrant, and she didn't even taste it when

she ate it.

Ji Huai didn't know when he would get better. According to this situation, it

might really take a few months to raise him. Their rice is gone, what should I

do if the child is born?

She has no milk, they have no money, not even money to hire a midwife.

Tang Xiu'er was only fifteen or six years old after all, and she was still a

child. When she thought of this, her body began to weaken. If she dies, what

will her child do? What about Ji Huai?

Seeing her face pale, Ji Huai asked aloud, "What's the matter? Are you

uncomfortable?"

Her body is too nutritious, and she really needs to make up for it.

"There is no rice at home, I am going to take that hen to change rice

tomorrow. I also embroidered a purse and a handkerchief, and then change it so

that we can eat for a while." Tang Xiuer ate the eggs, but Doesn't feel

delicious at all.

In order not to waste, so that the child can get nourishment, she resisted

eating.

"The hens have to keep the eggs for you to eat, they can't be sold." Ji Huai

denied, and then said, "Didn't you say that the bamboo baskets I made are

better than the ones sold? I will make a few today and let them tomorrow

morning. Xiao Huangzi took it with you to the town to sell it."

Xiao Huangzi is an orphan in the village. He used to go hunting occasionally

with him, but now he is only ten years old. He is a poor child who grew up

eating a hundred families. He is malnourished for a long time and his hair is

slightly yellowed.

"Can you sell it?" Tang Xiu'er hadn't actually sold it, so she was a little

skeptical.

"Don't you say that the one I made is stronger than the one they made?" Ji

Huai was unhappy, her pupils shrank slightly as she spoke to coax him.

He is a bit arrogant and does not allow others to look down upon.

"No, it's really better than theirs." Tang Xiu'er quickly affirmed.

"Then why can't it be sold?" he asked.

Tang Xiu'er had nothing to say, lowered her head and grabbed her little hand,

but didn't dare to provoke him, "I don't know how to sell, it's not that I

can't sell it."

This is the truth.

Ji Huai: "Then let Xiao Huangzi sell it."

She nodded.

In the afternoon, Ji Huai didn't go out, so he weaved bamboo baskets in the

house. Tang Xiu'er was sitting on one of the desks embroidering. She wanted to

finish embroidering the purse by tomorrow.

If the bamboo baskets can be sold, they may have a source of livelihood in the

future. She will embroider a little more purse in a few months so that she can

save some money.

She doesn't want to send this child out, so she must be able to raise it.

Sister Ji's words have been circling in her mind. She doesn't want to send the

child out, but what about Ji Huai?

She didn't know his thoughts, but if he insisted on sending the child out, she

would not agree. But what should she do?

Tang Xiu'er was confused and frightened. She didn't know Ji Huai's feelings

for this child, and he didn't seem to care much. Ji Mu really cares, but Ji Mu

is no longer there.

If Ji Huai really wants to send the child out, who can give her the shot?

Just thinking about it, the needle pierced her fingertips. She hissed, her

fingers shrank back, and the blood beads on the fingertips began to leak out.

Ji Huai raised his head for the first time, but he couldn't come over, and

asked in a deep voice, "Where is it hurt?"

She put her fingertips in her mouth and shook her head.

"Let me take a look." He looked at her exit, and after finishing speaking,

seeing that she hadn't come over, he repeated, "Come over and I have a look."

Tang Xiu'er moved small steps and walked towards him. Seeing Ji Huai have been

watching her, the whole person was stretched, walking slowly and slowly.

When he reached his side, he reached out and pulled her hand over, looked down

twice, and touched his slightly callused thumb, "Forget it, don't embroider,

hurt your eyes and body, and you're pregnant with a child. ."

"I want to embroider, there is no money at home." Xu was because he started to

think about her, and his hand was still being held. Her grievances came up

just now and choked up and said, "Sister-in-law just said that the Li family

is going to be... if I don't Earn money, what should I do when I have a baby?

Where can the money come from a midwife, how can I afford it? Are we going to

give him away?"

The little girl was still crying, and her shoulders began to tremble when she

talked about her grievances, not to mention her grievances.

She also had a tentative mind, and she didn't know what Ji Huai thought of

this matter. He has always valued his two brothers and sisters. If he agrees

to give away the child, then she will consider herself and the child.

She has been abandoned since she was a child, so she will definitely not

abandon her children.

Before he finished his words, Ji Huai’s face was already dark, and he said in

a loud voice, "I am a waste person again, and I will naturally go to make

money to feed you. I don’t care what the Li family and Zhang’s family are,

whether they are adopted or not, my own children, I will eat salt. Raise

yourself! This is not something you should worry about. You should raise your

baby properly."

He was so angry, as if his dignity had been insulted.

What kind of man gave away his first child? Are you still a man?

In the previous life, sister-in-law Ji also raised this matter. Although he is

lame, he wants face because he is lame, so he wants a healthy child. When the

other party mentioned it, he immediately vetoed it and lost his temper.

This is why Tang Xiu'er worked hard and made money to support him later. He

left the child, at least he didn't even think about giving it away.

Sister-in-law Ji was so angry, it was five taels of silver, and it was about

to get it, but Ji Huai stopped doing it.

It just so happened that those rumors were spreading outside, so she wanted to

make a living and told Ji Huai about these things. Both the inside and the

outside hinted that the child who stayed desperately didn't know if it was

his.

At that time, he moved his mind to send the child out. Knowing that it is

important for her to take care of the child, I want her to be punished.

Sister Ji and he didn't expect things to evolve to the end. The child died,

and Tang Xiu'er committed suicide.

Sister Ji lost only fifty taels of silver that he hadn't obtained, but

stupidly he lost his wife and son, and his family was ruined.

Seeing Ji Huai's excitement, Tang Xiu'er's tears were suffocated, and her

heart slowly fell to the ground. It was fine if he disagreed.

Ji Huai looked at her with red and swollen eye sockets, his temper receded,

and his voice slowed down, "Don't think about it, I will be fine when you have

a baby. I am a big man, can't I still be able to support you? Whatever I do, I

can support you!"

His words were like An Xin Wan, Tang Xiu'er's chaotic thoughts gradually

smoothed out, and then nodded.

evening.

Sister Ji and Brother Ji talked about it, pulling their faces, "I don't want

to look at what is going on now, she still has a spine look, I kindly give her

some rice, she doesn't want it, she doesn't want anything."

"Can I harm her? The child can regenerate, and now I can't live on it. I don't

know where to get the food tomorrow. There is only an old hen left. Could it

be that they drink the northwest wind?"

She was talked back by Tang Xiu'er, she couldn't get up, and she was very

rude, venting her anger.

Brother Ji was sitting, irritated when he listened, and waved his hand, "Stop

talking, what do they like to do and do, you should also relax, don't let

people say that they are forcing them to sell their children, when the time

comes, will you have no more face? "

Since the separation of the family, the people in the village have criticized

them quite a bit. He once heard others talking about the two brothers being

ruthless and righteous behind their backs.

It was Sister Ji who instigated the division at the beginning. Although he

wanted to divide it too, for fear of being involved by Ji Huai, he still felt

ashamed when he was made fun of.

"I know." Sister Ji was also annoyed, pulling the quilt to sleep. Seeing the

two sons by the bed, he scolded them a few words and told them to sleep

inside.

She wanted to see how Jihuai and his wife could survive just by the embroidery

work and wild vegetables. I have picked wild vegetables for half a month, and

Tang Xiu'er will finish picking wild vegetables nearby.

In winter, what should I do?

The second day.

Brother Ji and his wife went to work in the field and brought their two

daughters with them. Their children are only six or seven years old, but they

can also mow the grass.

The two couples didn't talk much. Seeing Ji Huai sitting in the courtyard

weaving bamboo baskets again, after a few polite questions, they left.

On the road, Ji Er’s sister-in-law followed in the footsteps of Ji Er’s

brother, and said, “The third brother looks much better. He was just lying in

the nest yesterday, but today he is half-lying. That foot seems to be able to

bend as well. Do you think it will be all right? Get up and go hunting at that

time."

Her family is poor and can't eat meat once a year. When she comes to Ji's

family, she can eat meat every few days. All this depends on Ji Huai, of

course she missed the days at that time.

When Ji Huai heard that Ji Huai's feet were good, the two daughters beside her

pursed their lips. The eldest daughter raised her head and asked her, "Mother,

do we have chicken to eat? And hare to eat."

The fried hare and chicken are delicious.

They haven't eaten it for a long time.

"Eat, eat, what to eat?" The second brother Ji interrupted calmly and waited

for the second sister-in-law. "At the beginning, the sister-in-law said that

she wanted to separate the family. Didn't you agree quickly? If he gets

better, pay back the things he brought from hunting. Can you give us points?

Are you really a fool in Ji Huai?"

Ji Ersao was scolded, she shrank her neck, and whispered, "Li Langzhong said

that his legs can't be cured, but how nice is the weather? Besides, the third

brother is not the one who cares. , Even if the family is separated, isn’t the

kitchen connected? He doesn’t know how to eat alone. I want him to get better

so that everyone’s life will be better."

Li Langzhong said that Ji Huai was going to be lame, and she was afraid that

she would be involved, so after hearing what Ji Huai said, she quickly

separated her family. Ji Huai was indeed half-dead during that time. She

thought she couldn't make it through. Who knew that the other party seemed to

be getting better and better.

Brother Ji heard it too.

No matter how much they did, Ji Huai would not be annoyed at them, nor would

he hate them. After a while, I thought of them as long as there was something

delicious.

Everyone shares the same stove, what good food can I hide? Can't eat meat

behind their backs?

He also wanted Ji Huai to get better soon. As for the separation, isn't it

because Ji's mother is gone? When they were separated, they also gave Ji Huai

and the others a bag of rice. Isn't it too much?

Brother Ji also went to work, and sister-in-law Ji was still at home.

According to her observation yesterday, Ji Huai and the others only had enough

rice for one day. She wanted to see if there was no rice today, what should

Tang Xiuer do.

The only thing they could change rice was the old hen, but the old hen was

still there, and the vegetables in the ground didn't grow much, and there was

still a long time before they could eat it.

Sister Ji saw that Ji Huai was still weaving bamboo baskets, she deliberately

walked over, looking left and right, "Why didn't you see Xiu'er today? Haven't

you woken up yet?"

After speaking, he deliberately looked at the sundries room. Oh my god, it's

so dark inside, so small, and I slept in it and succumbed to death.

"She went to town." Ji Huai did not look up, and then reached for a bamboo

pole.

"Go to town?" Sister Ji didn't react a little bit, and then slowed down, "Are

you going to sell her embroidered purse?"

Tang Xiu'er is smarter than her, and her purse and veil are also embroidered

by her, which looks pretty. It is said that it takes a few words to buy it.

"Yeah." Ji Huai's tone was neither salty nor light.

The sister-in-law Ji knew it, and observed him again. Among the three brothers

of the Ji family, Ji Huai is the best, the eldest brother Ji is strong, and

the second brother is a bamboo pole. Only Ji Huai has a long body and is just

right. Because of hunting all the year round, his muscles are tough, and he

looks more masculine than those two brothers.

At that time, she met Ji Huai and she was in love with Ji Huai, but it was a

pity that she was two years older than him. Otherwise, it would be better to

marry Ji Huai than to marry Big Brother Ji.

If he were to marry Ji Huai, he would not share the prey he brought with the

rest of the people. Their family's life is still not known.

What about Orion? A good life is the last word!

Forget it, when I thought that he was already a lame, sister-in-law Ji lost

her mind again, and she began to rejoice that she didn't marry Ji Huai, or she

would be laughed at.

Sister Ji narrowed her expression, smiled and said, "Xiu'er changed rice,

right? Yesterday I told her to give her some rice. After all, it's not easy

for you recently. I asked you to slow down. She said no, it turned out to be

herself. If you want to buy it, then I will rest assured."

Ji Huai and Ji Mu never allowed Tang Xiu'er to be disrespectful to them, so

Tang Xiu'er never dared to talk back to them, and the other party would not

generally refuse to do what she asked the other party to do.

She deliberately told Ji Huai this time that Tang Xiu'er could treat her

kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs, and he would definitely pull her face

down.

Sure enough, Ji Huai wrinkled her eyebrows, stopped her hand movement, looked

at her with her head up, her face sullen, "Why did she decline the kindness of

sister-in-law?"

"I don't know. Maybe it's because I'm going to sell pouches today. I didn't

take the salted radish that I brought her to eat. It didn't mean anything

else, but I'll give you a taste if it's good for dinner. "Sister Ji continued.

Ji Huai definitely didn't know about this. In the past, he gave them half a

hare, and they gave them a little order, and the other party was very happy.

Tang Xiu'er refused her kindness again and again, and Ji Huai would definitely

not bear it without telling him, and she would give Tang Xiu'er a meal.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I will talk about her when she comes back." Ji

Huai promised.

"In fact, it's not a big deal, not to mention her, as long as you have

something to eat." Sister Ji continued to laugh, her expression very

satisfied.

No matter what they do, Ji Huai will not lose his temper with them, rushing to

please them.

What is Tang Xiu'er? A maid bought with money is nothing but a scallion, do

you really think you are a scallion?

Ji Huai said, "She may think it is not easy for you, so she didn't ask for it.

But she also knows that it is indeed difficult for us now. Would you and

brother lend us half a bag of rice? We will pay it back later."

Before he finished speaking, Sister Ji’s smile had disappeared, she was

stumbling and embarrassed, "How can we have so many meters? You know, the

harvest this year is not good, this"

Ji Huai: "Didn’t Sister-in-law just said that she wanted to give us some? I

thought Sister-in-law has it, and we really don’t have rice. Sister-in-law

should give as much as she wanted, and it will take five or six days to eat."

He spoke lightly, as if casually.

"How can we have so much? The food is tight this year, and I am afraid that I

will be hungry after a while." Sister Ji hurriedly declined, desperately

making excuses.

When she heard Ji Huai's tone, she seemed to rely on her, and she was almost

frightened to death. Five or six days of food fluttering, I am really

embarrassed, why not grab it?

"Yes, it's not easy for everyone, nor is it easy for Big Brother." Ji Huai

expressed his understanding.

Sister Ji was in pain at first, but when she saw that he didn't want it

anymore, she started to worry again. After all, she wants to please Ji Huai,

enduring the pain and saying, "Everyone is a family. My brother and I can't

get the food for five or six days, but three days will be fine. You are still

injured, and Xiu'er is pregnant with a child. , How can you do without

eating?"

"Sister-in-law is right, thank you, sister-in-law." Ji Huai sighed and

accepted it reluctantly.

"It's all a family." Sister Ji endured the pain of cutting the meat and went

to the house to fetch rice.

Although they don't have polished rice, the coarse rice is also very valuable.

She never let Brother Ji eat dry rice. These rice can eat several bowls of dry

rice!

When she walked out with the rice, she placed it next to Ji Huai, and

intentionally or unconsciously said again, "Your leg, you still have to get

better quickly. My brother and I can relieve you for a while, but there will

be no way in the future."

What she said and what she said was all for their good. This time Ji Huai

received rice, and Ji Huai must be grateful. Next time, I will give it a

little bit, and rely on relief to win over Ji Huai. At that time, she said

that they were powerless and couldn't give them food, so he thought about

sending the child to the Li family for "adoption."

Ji Huai will trust her then and won't feel that she hurt him.

"My sister-in-law said, this leg still has to win." Ji Huai touched the

slightly curved leg and nodded.

Sister Ji also glanced at her, not believing that she would get better at all.

Ji Huai waited to be a lame, whether she was a lame, so that she would be

balanced in her heart.

When she was gone, Ji Huai looked at the rice bag with his eyes aside,

satirically.

Don't do it for nothing, how many good things has he eaten for them all these

years? how much did you spend? It's his turn to get a little back.

When Ji's brother and his wife came back from outside, Ji Huai saw that they

also greeted them actively. When they got closer, the rice bag on the table

next to him fell to the ground.

Ji Huai looked sideways, stretched out his hand and picked it up again,

looking fortunately, "Fortunately, I didn't spread it. When will I pick it

up?"

The second sister-in-law Ji looked at the rice bag and couldn't help but ask,

"Is it filled with rice? Why didn't you take it and put it in the house?"

She heard Sister Ji said that the two of them didn't have many meters left?

Where did this come from?

Ji Huai: "Sister-in-law just gave it to me, but I haven't taken it in yet."

Second sister-in-law Ji still doesn't know about sister-in-law Ji? Is the iron

rooster plucked? Her smile stiffened, and she was very puzzled, "Why did my

sister-in-law suddenly give you rice?"

Hearing, Ji Huai sighed and said, “It’s not that we are out of food and

squeeze us a little. Xiu’er is pregnant, and I’m recuperating. Sister-in-law

wants us to eat well, so my injury can heal quickly. a little."

"Yes." Ji Ersao smiled and went to the other side.

Back in the room, she looked at Brother Ji, stretched out her hand and pushed

the other person again, "You hurry up and get some rice to Ji Huai and the

others."

"Where do we have rice?" The second brother Ji immediately scolded her, "You

do what others do. We don't have many meters left!"

"Aren't you stupid? Sister-in-law can still do business at a loss? It must be

because Ji Huai's legs are getting better, so I rushed to give him rice. Do

you think that when Ji Huai goes hunting, he can still give us meat? Even if

you give it to us, it will definitely not be more than the sister-in-law's

side!" Ji Er's wife said anxiously, "Is the rice worth or the meat worth?"

Brother Ji suddenly understood, and quickly went to get rice.

He was generous and took two more days of rice than his sister-in-law Ji’s

house. Ji Huai was thanking him. Sister Ji went out to see it, and stopped

immediately, her eyes sank suddenly.

What the ** is the second child doing? Why did you suddenly take food to

please Ji Huai? Is it possible that their family also knew about the Li

family’s "adopting" children?

That's fifty taels of silver, enough for ordinary people to live for a year.

She can't let them grab it!

The other end.

Tang Xiu'er has sold out her purse and kerchief. Today was going well. A young

lady saw that her embroidery was good, and Xu Shi saw that it was not easy for

her to be pregnant, so she bought them all.

As for the bamboo baskets that Ji Huai made up, Xiao Huangzi was helping her

sell them, and they all sold them. When Xiao Huangzi put a string of copper

plates in her hand, she was startled, "Can you sell so many?"

Those bamboo baskets sold more money than the veil and purse she sold.

"Little Brother Ji said that you have to sell the money, and don't sell it if

you don't." Xiao Huangzi nodded.

Since Ji Huai said, Tang Xiu'er eased her mood again. She wanted to give Xiao

Huangzi two copper plates, but the other party said nothing. In the end, she

could only use the money to buy rice and flour.

"I'll mention it." Xiao Huangzi was small, but with great strength, he

immediately picked it up, and said, "Little brother Ji said, you are pregnant

with a child, don't be too tired to mention it, just give it to me."

"Thank you, shall I buy you buns to eat?" Tang Xiu'er herself was reluctant to

eat. She wanted to repay her for helping herself.

A steamed bun requires a penny, she feels it is not cheap, she is not willing

to eat it, but Xiao Huangzi helped her, she was still willing to buy it.

"No, what's so delicious about the steamed stuffed buns? When Brother Ji is

ready, we will go hunting in the mountains. When the time comes, we can roast

the hare we caught. The taste is not comparable to anything!" Xiao Huangzi

Saying that the saliva is about to flow down, he took a hard sip, very

aftertaste.

Tang Xiu'er followed him and couldn't help asking, "Do you often go to the

mountains to roast hare to eat?"

When she first came to Ji's house, she was also very sticky to Jihuai. She

often followed his butt, but he was very annoying to her and kept his face

calm and refused to let her follow. As time passed, she didn't dare to bring

it up, and stayed at home to work obediently.

"Of course, there are everything on the mountain. Hare, pheasant, bird-

fighting, bird-eggs, wild fruits, several non-poisonous snakes, without any

cooking wine, roasted very fragrant. There are sweet potatoes and sweet

potatoes in the ground. There are fish in the river, so you can eat whatever

you want. The days with Xiaoge Ji are the days of chic and happy life." Xiao

Huangzi said bouncing around, just want Ji Huai to recover quickly, he wants

to follow He went happily together.

"Really good." Tang Xiu'er was very envious.

Every time she could only wait for him at home to see what he brought back,

and clean it up and send it to Brother Ji and Brother Ji. She never heard him

say these things.

"Of course it's okay. When Brother Ji is ready, we can go together." Xiao

Huangzi didn't have that much thought, blurted out, thinking that she was

pregnant, and comforted, "Little Brother Ji knows where it is safe. There will

be wild beasts and big bugs, just play it, and set traps to catch a lot of

hares."

Ji Huai didn't talk much at all, let alone tell her these things. Along the

way, she walked very slowly, constantly asking Xiao Huangzi about things,

where Ji Huai would take him to play and what to do.

She only knew that hunting was dangerous, but she didn't expect it to be so

fun and fun.

After arriving home, Xiao Huangzi put down his things, greeted Ji Huai and

left.

Tang Xiu'er helped him walk into the house, her voice could not hide the

surprise, "The bamboo baskets are all sold, and the food we bought is enough

for us to eat for half a month."

When the words fell, she saw the rice bag on the ground again, walked over and

took a look, and saw that there was rice inside, "Who gave this?"

"Sister-in-law"

"We don't want it!" Before he finished speaking, she became emotional, "We

don't want her things! She is not kind at all, me"

Ji Huai stretched out his hand to hold her hand, pulled her over, and said

again, "This is given by the eldest brother and the second brother together.

They think we have difficulties, and ours is indeed difficult. If you give it

to us, you can’t let it go, right? Accept the kindness of others."

Hearing that both of them gave it, Tang Xiu'er looked better, but she was

still very entangled, "Why did they give it to us? For no reason."

Those two are very shrewd, but they don't want to lose money. Don’t you think

they’re a drag when you split up? What are you giving them rice now?

"Maybe it's because my leg will heal soon?" Ji Huai half-joked.

"I think so too." She believed this the most, and said very firmly, "Your legs

will be good. When we save money, I will invite Dr. Zhang to see you!"

"It's much better today. Let me show you." Ji Huai stood up slightly with his

hand propped on the bed board. He couldn't use his foot, but he could walk

gently.

"Will it hurt?" She was afraid of him falling, and reached out to help him.

"No." Ji Huai stopped her movement and continued to move forward. Although he

was limping, he was able to go, "I guess I will be able to leave in half a

month. I don't need to ask a doctor. I'm in good health. I just need to wait

for it to recover slowly."

"Then look at it for a few more days, if it's not good, you have to ask a

doctor." Tang Xiu'er was still worried.

Ji Huai: "Yeah."

After selling bamboo baskets and embroidery, the two had more than half a

month's worth of food. Tang Xiuer fed the old hen a little more food, and the

old hen had been laying eggs for several days.

Tang Xiu'er always wanted to keep it for Ji Huai to eat. He always refused to

eat it, and even showed disgusting eyes, "I eat a lot of eggs and duck eggs.

They are all in the mountains and fields. The bird eggs taste good, and they

are the best when they are roasted."

She ate the eggs silently, listening to him saying that she couldn't help but

look up at him, "You just said what's the use, and I didn't see you bring it

back to me, and I haven't eaten it!"

Ji Huai was taken aback for a moment. She narrowed her mouth and complained a

little bit. He coughed slightly, "I will take you next time. How big is it?"

Tang Xiu'er originally just said that after he did this, her eyes lit up,

"Really? Can I?"

She wanted to follow him very much before, but he ignored her and Ji Mu kept

asking her to work.

"Why not? I can go now, and in a few days, I can go. It's not going to go

hunting, and set a trap to catch a hare, can't it?" Ji Huai agreed readily.

"You are so kind." Her small eyes were bent into crescent shapes.

Ji Huai looked at her clear and bright eyes, his heart tightened, his

breathing became a little heavier, and he quickly glanced aside for fear of

losing his stance.

He is a reckless man, who can only hunt, do all hard work, and can't talk

about love. He was too hostile, and the girls in the village were far away

from him.

Tang Xiu'er has beautiful features and is his first and only woman. What is

different in the end. Now that he has feelings for her again, a quiet movement

can still affect his heart.

During this time, the Ji family was dumbfounded.

In the beginning, Ji Huai could only sit in a chair, and then he could sit up

at the back, and then he could walk slowly without being supported by anyone.

It looks like this is going to be better?

Brother Ji and his wife are anxious, if this is all right, can they go

hunting? A lot of things were delivered intermittently, especially the dishes

in China, and they had to leave half of them.

They can't lose to Sister Ji.

And what about Sister Ji? She looked at the behavior of the second brother Ji

and his wife, and became even more angry. Is this robbing her? Originally, she

was the only one who gave Ji Huai something. Before Ji Huai's injury healed,

she managed to win a good relationship and talked about it.

As a result, Ji Ersao bad her good deeds!

For fifty taels of silver, she couldn't give up either. Gritting his teeth, he

continued to give things to Ji Huai and his wife.

Who is afraid of whom? !

Tang Xiu'er originally went to pick wild vegetables, but Ji Huai also told her

not to pick it. Sometimes Ji Er's wife brought an egg, and he also gave her to

eat.

The hen in the family lays eggs every day, and she has eggs to eat every day.

Tang Xiu'er always has a dim sum in eating their food. Ji Huai doesn't take it

seriously. When cooking, she always asks her to put more rice. "Eat more,

don't eat white or not, it depends on how thin you are before. I still give

them meat every three to five times. What is this little rice?"

When he said so, she thought so. Sometimes he wanted to save a little bit, and

he said, "What do you save? When I'm done, I'll take you hunting. Who else

will eat this?"

Tang Xiuer: ""

It seems to be too.

Ji Huai's legs got better day by day, and he walked faster and faster.

Sometimes he walked slowly in the yard, and he couldn't see anything abnormal

at all.

The second sister-in-law of Ji was so happy to see him all boasting, "The

third brother is in good health, and he will definitely recover quickly. Look,

it didn't take long for him to be like a normal person."

The sister-in-law of Ji has been very uncomfortable seeing her second sister-

in-law recently. Seeing her praise Jihuai, she feels even more angry. Seeing

the other party come in, her tone is yin and yang, "Ji Huai's feet are good,

then we will go hunting."

When the time comes, he will surely be able to feed his children. Who else to

give away?

The five taels of silver were so gone, and a lot of rice and grain were added

in. When she thought of it, she was about to squirt out of blood.

"Yeah, how nice? Xiu'er will have a baby right away, and they will have a

better life then." Ji Ersao was choosing dishes, nodding her head to agree,

and sneer in her heart. Don’t everyone think that Jihuai can eat some meat

after hunting? Otherwise, sister Ji's iron hen can be so generous?

"Don't pretend." Sister Ji couldn't understand her good looks, she gritted her

teeth and said, "I don't know what you think?"

Asking her to take out food from her pocket is more uncomfortable than killing

her. These days, she couldn't sleep every day, and couldn't breathe at the

thought of the food that was given away.

"I also know your thoughts, aren't everyone the same? Isn't it for those who

eat?" Ji Ersao didn't look up, put aside the selected dishes, not to be

outdone.

Sister-in-law Ji originally wanted to scold her, what was the other side's

foot? Now that the money is gone, everyone has lost a lot of food, and Ji Er's

wife's words make her dazed again, "What are you talking about?!"

"I'm wrong? Do you want to please Ji Huai secretly? When we are all fools? He

will come back from hunting and give you more meat?" Ji Ersao picked up the

vegetables and got up with a sarcasm.

Sister Ji was furious at first, but she was startled by what she said, and

then thought that Ji Huai's feet were better. If this is the case, it is

indeed possible to go hunting, and then there will be meat to eat.

Right, right, right, it's not a loss to think about their family, but it's

because of which rice they used for meat, Ji Huai will definitely divide the

meat between the two of them.

It's just that the thought of those fifty taels of silver made her heart

choked again. If only you can eat meat and get fifty taels of silver.

The Ji family cared more about when he went hunting than Ji Huai, waiting and

waiting, hoping and hoping, Ji Huai was finally going hunting.

He put on his old clothes, with a small knife in his feet, a bow and arrows on

his back, linen wrapped in his hands, and a bamboo tube. Everyone thought he

was going hunting, but they were very skeptical.

Because Tang Xiu'er followed him, thinking that he was just going to send it

off, but later found that both of them had gone.

"Is this taking her to hunt?" Ji Ersao didn't believe it.

"It shouldn't be hunting, she is still pregnant, how could it be possible? It

is estimated that they were walking together, halfway apart." Ji Erge guessed.

Tang Xiu'er is still pregnant, how could she take her to hunt?

Ji Ersao thinks so too.

Thinking of Ji Huai going hunting, she was in a good mood. Looking at her

daughter who hadn't eaten meat for a long time, she smiled and told them to

mow the grass quickly, and then they would be able to eat meat when they came

back.

After so long, it can be considered to smell a bit of meat.

As for the sister-in-law Ji's family, although the sister-in-law Ji was also

worried about the fifty taels of silver, she hadn't eaten meat for a long

time, but she was better than the second sister-in-law. At the end of last

month, an old hen didn't know how to die. She hurriedly burned and ate it

while she was still warm.

The two sons of their family were originally Xiaopangdun. They have not eaten

meat for a long time, and they have also lost a lot of weight. Seeing Ji Huai

go hunting, they all asked, "Mother, do we have meat to eat? I want to eat

rabbit meat. "

"How can you eat whatever you want? What can you eat?" Sister Ji lowered her

head and said to them, thinking about how to cook better and what ingredients

are in the house.

There was still some onion and ** left last night, and the chicken fat that

was not eaten at the end of the month can also be used to stir fry. Ji Huai

hasn't been out hunting for so long, so he should have gained a lot.

At the thought of eating meat, no one in the Ji family wanted to work, sitting

at home and waiting.

at the same time.

At the foot of the mountain, Xiao Huangzi opened his way outside, with Tang

Xiu'er in the middle and Ji Huai behind.

The mountain road is rugged. During this period of time, she has been well

developed and won't pant too much while walking, but she is still a bit tired.

She walks slowly and slowly, and finally stops for a while.

"With your physical strength, you have to go hunting with you." Ji Huai said

helplessly, walked up to her, leaned over and took her hand, leading her

forward.

With his strength, Tang Xiu'er saved a lot of energy at once, and the pace

became brisk. Looking at his back, he said, "Will I be a drag on you? Will it

be dangerous?"

She followed because she was curious, wanted to see, and didn't want to put

them in danger, that would be too capricious.

"What is the danger at the foot of the mountain?" Ji Huai laughed when she

said this.

Tang Xiu'er looked embarrassed, his cheeks flushed on both sides, let him lead

him.

Suddenly, Ji Huai stopped and let go of her hand. She also looked up at him

and saw him quickly pull up the bow and arrow and shoot forward.

With a "swish", other birds on the tree not far away flew away.

"Hit!" Xiao Huangzi said in surprise, hurried to the front, grabbed a bird in

the grass, and said triumphantly, "I'm quite fat!"

"There is a bird's nest in the tree." Ji Huai reminded.

"Good!" Xiao Huangzi put down the bird, took off his shoes and climbed the

tree. He climbed up like a monkey in threes or twos, and Tang Xiu'er was taken

aback.

"Five eggs." Xiao Huangzi glanced at the probe and reached out for it.

Tang Xiu'er is still watching, she rarely goes out, how can she see such

interesting things, she keeps looking up. Ji Huai walked to her, reached out

and took her hand, pulled her aside, and said to Xiao Huangzi, "Be careful,

don't fall.":,,
