Chapter 145: Door-to-door
How?
Asking for someone and still holding a shelf?
Is it so hard for you to take the initiative to speak?
Do you think I'm a bully?
I'm not going to open my mouth today;!
Seeing that Luo Ping didn't speak, grandma, aunt and aunt began to talk to Luo Xin's mother again, Luo Xin's mother didn't look at the usual peace and Luo Ping is very majestic, but in this case, it is not as calm as Luo Ping. was told by grandma, aunt and aunt in turn, and couldn't sit still. Fortunately, she remembered what Luo Xin had said to her at home, so she occasionally spoke:
"There is also a lot of food at home, just enough for a family of four!"
Gradually, no one spoke in the room, and the atmosphere became dull. Luo Shi twisted his body uneasily, and Luo Ping's face was also a little stiff. Luo Qing glanced at Luo Xin from time to time, and when he saw Luo Xin sitting there very calmly, he felt confident in his heart, and secretly glanced at his uncle, and felt in his heart that he had always admired the uncle, and when he saw the uncle's gloomy expression, he felt a lot worse than his younger brother at this time.
In the midst of this dreary, the rooster crowed, and a white appeared outside the window. Luo Ping and his wife stood up and said goodbye with some trepidation, and the grandparents snorted coldly and didn't move. It was the uncle and uncle who stood up and sent Luo Xin's family out of the door.
On the way home, Luo Ping's mood was very low, and he glanced at Luo Xindao:
"Xin'er, will your grandparents keep talking?"
Hearing this, Luo also looked at Luo Xin worriedly. Luo Xin shook his head firmly and said, "No!" ”
"But...... Neither your uncle nor your uncle spoke......"
"yes!" Luo also spoke: "Even your aunt and aunt didn't speak. ”
looked at the worried look on the parents' faces. Luo Xin's eyes flashed with the trace of discomfort and disdain that flashed on the faces of the uncle and the aunt's family, and he said lightly:
"That's because they're not hungry yet."
"Xin'er ......"
"Dad, mother. Think about what Grandpa said today and the expressions on their faces. If they give in this time, in the future, their family will be theirs, and ours will be theirs, and then there will be no way to live! ”
The Luo couple was silent, recalling the looks and words of the grandfather and his family during the vigil, and then remembering the treatment of their own family before the separation, the expressions of the two of them became firm.
"Let's go. Go back and dad will kill chickens for you! Luo Ping waved his hand.
"Mother will make you something to eat!"
The family returned to their home, and Luo Xin was the last to walk into the courtyard gate. He suddenly paused, turned to look at the sky, and shouted with his arms stretched out to his sides:
"I'm ten years old!"
"This kid is ten years old when he is ten years old. What is there to shout! Hurry back, it's cold outside! Roche shouted from inside the room.
"Hey, mother, here!"
Luo Xin closed the courtyard door and returned to his room. Soon, the mother prepared a table of dishes, and after eating, Luo Xin and Luo Qing went out to pay New Year's greetings.
On the day of the opening of the fifth day, Luo Xin and Luo Qing also went to the county seat to pay New Year's greetings to Lu Tingfang and Zhou Zhixian. The festival passed in such a hurry.
Roxin began to take the articles he had transcribed out of the big box, and he began to study the historical classics reads. Absorbing knowledge from those articles, his level is growing at a high speed.
The food shortage began to become serious when it entered March. Many families have begun to live on gruel, and there are no rice grains in a bowl of porridge, and villagers have begun to go out in groups to dig wild vegetables. A group of children also gather there to fish along the river.
However, even so, the villagers were reluctant to eat the seeds, and by March they had begun to tighten their belts. Go down to tidy up the world and look forward to a good year this year.
There was a knock on the courtyard door. Dad and eldest brother are both working in the fields, and only Roche and Luo Xin are left in the family. Luo wiped his hands and came out of the room, Luo Xin's hand holding the pen in the west room paused, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
No need to ask, this grandfather's family must have come to borrow food. It's March now, and my grandfather's family of nine people should have eaten up all the food they had.
Luo opened the courtyard door, and saw Luo Xin's aunt standing outside the door, and when she saw Luo Shi, a smile instantly bloomed on her face.
"Second sister-in-law, you are at home! I'm here to knock it out. ”
Luo Che pouted in his heart, and said in his heart that he had been separated for so long, and he hadn't seen you come to the door a few times. Don't you just want to borrow food? It's just that your identity isn't enough, huh!
A warm smile also appeared on his face and said, "Come in, it's cold outside." ”
Welcoming the little aunt into the East Wing, Luo Xin shook her head slightly, and continued to write, no longer caring about the things in the East Wing, she believed that her mother could handle things well.
An hour later, Luo Xin had already put down his pen, sat in a chair and studied the article he had transcribed, when he heard the door of the east wing open, and there was a sound of footsteps, but there was no sound of speaking, until his mother closed the courtyard door, and then he heard his mother walking towards his room. Luo Xin put down the book and stood up, and saw his mother walk in.
"Mother!"
Luo walked in with a face that was not a face and a nose, and Luo Xin smiled and asked his mother to sit down, and then poured her a glass of water before she sat down and said:
"Angry?"
"Hmph, if you want to ask our family for food, you only let your aunt come, and you look down on our family too much. Do you think our family can be bullied casually? Is it a person who comes to us like a dog? ”
Luo Xin smiled silently, and Luo Shi still said indignantly: "Xin'er, as you expected, your aunt came to sit for an hour, and she refused to say anything about asking for food, just nagging that their family couldn't eat, Wen'er was so hungry that she always cried, and she just wanted me to take the initiative to give them food." Bah! If Wen'er is always hungry and crying, can she still be that face? I see that there is no hunger on her face at all, she is not hungry, will Wen'er be hungry?
He also said that your grandfather and grandmother had no strength to get off the kang, and I saw your grandfather go to the field yesterday. Is their face worth that much? Can't say what you want to say? Keeping our family begging for food and holding a shelf, putting a score, like an uncle, rushing our family like a slave? When they cough, we have to kneel? ”
"Mother, don't be angry." Luo Xin laughed softly: "I estimate that my grandfather's family should still have a few days of food, this is to try our family's attitude in advance, I estimate that tomorrow the aunt will come, maybe the day after tomorrow the uncle will come to my father, the day after tomorrow the uncle will come to my father, and then it should be the grandparents who will come forward." ”
"Humph!" Roche said angrily: "If your grandparents don't come forward, I won't agree." ”
