Chapter 5 Beaten

In the evening, Gu Ye did not go to Aunt Jiu's house next door as promised. When Liu and the others were all asleep, she brought out the hidden rabbit meat from the space.

Gu Ye lived with her brother on a kang, which was divided into two spaces by a straw curtain, and she lived in it. Lifted the straw curtain in the middle, and pushed the still steaming rabbit meat in front of Gu Ming, Gu Ye blinked and said, "Brother, I specially left it for you." Liu doesn't know, let's eat it! ”

At dinner, Gu Ming didn't eat a few pieces of rabbit meat in order to take care of her, and Gu Ye saw it in his eyes.

Gu Ming saw that there were at least seven or eight pieces of rabbit meat in the bowl, and smiled like a little mouse stealing oil to eat. He gave his sister a thumbs up: "Sister, you are really good!" However, don't do such a thing in the future, if that woman knows, she should beat you again! ”

"Don't worry, she won't find out!" Gu Ye pinched a piece of meat on the rabbit leg with his hand and stuffed it into his brother's mouth, "Hurry up and eat it, it won't taste good if it's cold." ”

"Sister, you eat too." The two of you and I ate half a bowl of rabbit meat, and my little belly was bulging. Gu Ye held her satiety little belly and fell asleep contentedly. Before Mengzhou Gong, her mind was full of thoughts: It feels so good to eat meat! When it's free, take a trip to the mountains and get some hares and pheasants to come back and make a tooth sacrifice......

The next day, the day was faint and Gu got up at night. She cooked the porridge first, then used the yeast powder that she turned out last night to make noodles, and steamed a pot of noodles rolls. In the past few days, I have always eaten coarse grains and hard cakes, and the fragile stomach of the original owner has been tormented. She had to learn to create as much value as possible with limited resources.

Breakfast is fried pickles with flour rolls and corn porridge. Gu Ye didn't know what age this was, corn and potatoes were all introduced, how could it be after the Ming Dynasty, right?

As he was thinking about it, there was a sudden gust of wind in the back of his head. Not good! Gu Yecang hurriedly dodged. It's a pity that the agility of this small body is too low, and although it has avoided the key point in the back of the head, it has been twitched the shoulder. Gu Ye grinned, took a few steps back, glared at the unkind Liu, and asked, "Why are you beating me?" ”

Seeing this, Gu Ming hurriedly ran over to protect her sister behind her, and looked fiercely at Liu, who came out of the kitchen and carried a burning stick: "My sister got up before dawn to cook, she was not idle for a moment, and she didn't do anything wrong, why are you beating people indiscriminately?" ”

Gu Qiao heard the movement and walked out, glanced at the next door, and said unhappily: "Early in the morning, what are you crazy about?" ”

"Am I crazy? Don't look at your good girl either! I am getting more and more bold and dare to steal things from behind!! Every time Liu picked up eggs from the chicken coop, he would count the contents of the jar. Just now, when she put eggs in the crockpot, she found that there was one missing, and she was about to go crazy! The dead girl was home alone yesterday, she didn't do it, who else could there be?

"What did I steal?" Gu Ye looked at her very calmly, the burning pain on his shoulder, and the fire that had been suppressed in his heart kept rising. Nima! It's so hard to fill your stomach in any life you live now. In her previous life, even at the beginning of the troubled times, when she hadn't shown her talent for pharmaceuticals, she had never lived so aggrieved!!

Liu Shi met her sharp eyes, his heart flickered for a moment, and immediately pointed to her nose again, jumped to his feet and said, "Eggs!" One egg is missing, you didn't steal it, who else could it be? ”

Gu Ye gave her an indifferent look, turned around and entered the house of the Liu family and Gu Qiao, and took out the sleeping Xiao Zhuang.

"Gu Ye, what do you want to do? It's against you, put your brother down!! Gu Qiao thought that she was going to hurt her baby little son, so she stepped forward and slapped her without hesitation.

Gu Ye took two steps back, dodged Gu Qiao's slap, looked at him with deep eyes without the slightest emotion, and then shook Xiao Zhuang awake and asked, "Xiao Zhuang, are yesterday's eggs delicious?" Still want to eat it? ”

As soon as he heard the food, Xiao Zhuang, who was disturbed from his sleep and wanted to sprinkle, immediately became energetic: "The eggs are delicious, and the meat is even more delicious!" Mother, eat eggs, eat meat! ”

The child told the truth, and when Liu heard it, he suddenly couldn't get off the stage. Her face changed slightly, and she grabbed the burning stick and rushed into the east room. Immediately after that, Da Zhuang's cry was accompanied by Liu's shouting and scolding: "Say! Did you give eggs to your brother? Am I less of you to eat, or less of you to drink? Why don't you say it if you want to eat eggs? See if I don't beat you to death! ”

Da Zhuang thought that the matter of digging eggs from the chicken coop was exposed, and he couldn't care about wearing his pants, so he ran out with his bare buttocks, and defended while running: "Mother, it's my brother who wants to eat, not me...... Stop it...... Okay, I also ate half of the egg, I admit my mistake, can't I admit my mistake? Wow - mother, if you fight again, you will die!! ”

Gu Ye stuffed Xiao Zhuang back into the quilt, looked at Gu Qiao with an embarrassed face coldly, rubbed his sore shoulder, and silently put breakfast on the table. He took a dough roll, put some pickles in it, took a bowl of gruel, and went into his house. Looking at the faces of those people, she was afraid that she would suffer from indigestion.

As soon as she put the porridge bowl on the kang table, Gu Ming followed in. Like her, Gu Ming also held a porridge bowl and a flower roll in her hand.

"Sister, bear with me for a while, and in two years, when I have enough stones to build a yard, I will start another yard in the village, and my brother will take you to separate the family. In the future, if that woman beats you, you will run. She's fat, she can't outrun you! If she won't let you go home, you'll go to the chief's house and cry. Don't be afraid, my brother will always be with you. "Because there are many wild animals in the mountains, for the sake of safety, no matter how poor the people in the village, they will also build high stone courtyard walls.

If Gu Ming hadn't been too young, he would have proposed to split up his family as early as the day his sister was thrown on the mountain. It's no wonder that an eleven-year-old child makes such a request, and the patriarch can agree!

"Hmmm! I figured it out, no matter how much I swallowed my anger and was careful to please, then the Liu family would not treat me. After that, no matter what she said, I pretended not to hear; If she does it, I'll hide! Can't keep letting her bully us like this!! ”

Facing the warm man Xiao Zhengtai, Gu Ye's mood was finally not so depressed. Although Gu Ming has lost some weight, her facial features are delicate and atmospheric, and she will definitely be a handsome guy when she grows up.

Outside, Liu's mouth kept squirting and swearing. Inside the house, the brother and sister cried as if she were an old owl, and the two ate the fluffy dough rolls with relish and drank the fragrant corn porridge.

Yesterday, more than half of the 10 acres of sorghum land were harvested. After harvesting sorghum today, we will go to the back mountain to harvest budding rice. The people here call the corn bud or bud rice, which is similar to the name of the north in the previous life.

Before Liu went to the field, he assigned Gu Ye a task: in addition to feeding the poultry and livestock, he also had to wash the family's clothes. Looking at the mountains of dirty clothes, Gu Ye sighed deeply in his heart: This body is only eleven years old, and he is still a child!

The children of the poor are in charge early! Gu Ye resigned himself to his fate and came to the waterhole at the entrance of the village. The water of this pond is as green as a flawless blue jade, reflecting the green mountains and green trees, which is extremely quiet.

At this time, the clothes should be soaked in plant ash before washing, and then repeatedly beaten and rinsed before completion. Gu Ye added laundry detergent to the ashes of the plants, and in the process of soaking the clothes, she found that the shadow of a fish in the pool water flashed by. She raised her eyebrows, and there was fish soup to drink at noon!

She broke a branch from the tree, and seeing that there was no one around, she took out a sharp dagger from the space and sharpened one end of the branch. She returned home, pinched a handful of corn flour, and used the resources available to make air bait.

She threw the bait into the pool, some of which floated on the water, some of which were half-sinking and half-floating. There should be a lot of fish in the pool, and soon fish will swim over. Gu Ye saw the opportunity, calculated the angle, and thrust the branch in his hand into the water. A palm-sized fish was brought out of the water by a branch, and the flicking tail of the fish sprinkled with crystal droplets.

The fish has a smooth, slightly cylindrical body, a flattened tail, a protruding jaw at the tip of the head, and a more pronounced scales on the head. Gu Ye had never seen such a fish, and he didn't know if he could eat it. Let's catch it first!

The scattered fish could not resist the lure of the bait, and soon gathered again. Gu Ye interjected more than a dozen in a row before stopping. Scrape the scales and gills on the edge of the pond to remove the internal organs, wash them, and take them home to salt. After washing the clothes, she boiled a pot of green onions, ginger, garlic and dried chili peppers, and tasted one herself, which was delicious, the meat was delicate and delicious. After waiting for a long time, there were no adverse reactions, indicating that the fish was edible.

When the meal was delivered, Gu Qiao spoke highly of this braised miscellaneous fish. Liu described her catching fish from a waterhole as "walking shit luck". It's not that the village doesn't have the idea of catching fish in the pool, but the fish are too cunning, and they may not have a harvest after waiting for most of the day, which is too wasteful of time. Over time, there was no one fishing by the pool.

Knowing that Gu Ye used cornmeal as bait, Liu scolded her again, saying that she was a loser. Gu Ye rolled his eyes - the fish he caught didn't eat as well as you, and he didn't delay spitting fish bones when he scolded people!
