Entering the house, Jiaojiao climbed on top of the kang with a humming sound. At this moment, Erya turned around, and Jiaojiao hurriedly covered her face with her hands.
Bai Miaomiao reminded: "Little Jiaojiao, your sister is still awake."
Jiaojiao heard that he let go of his fleshy little hand, and hurriedly took off his outer shirt and lay under the blanket, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
Bai Miaomiao, on the other hand, walked gracefully in unhurried steps, leaping to the side of Jiaojiao's bed, finding a comfortable seat and curled up, her tail wagging comfortably.
squeaked
The door was pushed open, and Liu Zhihua entered wearing a coat.
Seeing that all the babies were sleeping, he walked slowly to the edge of the kang, and seeing that the baby was sleeping soundly, he smiled in relief, holding the cat onto the straw mat underground, and then he could not help it, and gave Er Ya He and Xiao Li tucked the corner of the blanket before leaving.
Hearing the door close, Bai Miaomiao jumped onto the bed again and continued to nest beside Jiaojiao's blanket.
Jiaojiao initially pretended to be asleep, but she fell asleep and fell asleep.
this end, this,
After Liu Zhihua returned home, Wang Zhuangzhi asked, "Is Jiaojiao awake?"
"Not getting up, it's a cat barking."
Liu Zhihua took off his clothes, ascended to earth kang but could not sleep, Jiaojiao was not by his side and chatted.
"Zhihua, remember to hide the banknotes. When I returned with the ox cart in the darkness, many people noticed, and I guess I spoke behind me. The people**** in the village may have a bad idea." Said Wang. As Shiro spoke, he blew the oil lamp.
"I sewed Jiaojiao's clothes, and those people couldn't find her."
Speaking of this, Liu Zhihua thought of Mu Cheng's arrival and had yet to tell the head of the house, so he lay down on the kang and said again: "Head of the house, do you still remember the Xiuhua I mentioned to you?"
"Your brother hasn't heard from you in years, why are you talking about it again?" Wang Zhuangzhi asked doubtfully.
Liu Zhihua sighed, and continued to talk about Mu Cheng's visit today, telling him what happened from beginning to end, and finally sighed with red eyes: "Poor Xiuhua's life is very sad."
Wang Zhuangzhi was also very emotional upon hearing that, so she comforted him: "It really isn't easy for their families. If we were in the past, we might be powerless, but it just so happens that we sell those silver taels today. If you want to help more, then you can help even more."
Liu Zhihua's heart was warmed when he heard the chief's words, and thought for a moment and said, "Master, I want to go see Xiuhua tomorrow to see what's going on in that house, he said, and then we can discuss how to handle it." Please help."
Wang Zhuangzhi agreed without hesitation, "OK, you made the decision."
...
The next morning, the,
Liu Zhihua woke up before dawn to make breakfast.
He was going to meet his younger sister Xiuhua today, so he took out a basket to pack a few marinated meat sticks two days ago and various foods, he said, and also took a large piece of cloth cut from Erya's new clothes.
After tidying up, Liu Zhihua combed her hair and changed into clean clothes. As she searched for clothes, she found a new pair of shoes wrapped in a blue cloth at the bottom of the box. The shoes were made by her grandmother when she got married. His body became fat and his legs were too wide to wear.
At first, Xiuhua and she wore shoes of the same size, so she should be able to wear them, and put those new shoes in the basket.
As soon as he left the courtyard after tidying it up, Liu Zhihua saw Jiaojiao walking out while holding the cat and rubbing his eyes.
"Mother ~"
Liu Zhihua was carrying a basket and had nowhere to hide. She originally wanted to avoid the children and return quickly, but suddenly bumped into him, so she stepped forward and said with a smile, "Honey, why are you getting up so early."
Liu Zhihua hugged her daughter and stroked her somewhat messy hair, persuading in a low voice: "Yes, mother will be back when she leaves, today is a bad day, she said, darling at home playing with her brothers."
Jiaojiao pouted, looked at Mother excitedly and said, "Mom ~ I want to thank Aunt Xiuhua for the kitten."
In fact, Jiaojiao wanted to help, mother had worried about Aunt Xiuhua, she might be able to help Aunt Xiuhua when she was sick, and brother Mu Cheng's face, let her drink a bowl of river water yesterday, she might be able to help Aunt Xiuhua when she was sick, and brother Mu Cheng's face, let her drink a bowl of river water yesterday, I don't know how it happened today.
Liu Zhihua sighed, afraid it would be too difficult for Guaibao to follow the path, so he hesitated to let go.
Right now, Erya was also out of the house. Seeing his mother and sister hugging each other, he rushed over. Seeing how his mother was dressed, he knew that she was going to go out, so he held her hand and wanted to go together.
"Mom, I'm coming too, I can help keep my little sister..."
"Shhh, lower your voice."
Liu Zhihua had one head and two big girls, and was afraid of waking Xiao Li up, so he spoke to the head of the house, and then brought the two girls onto the street.
There are two villages between Xiaohe Village and Xiaoshu Village. At this moment, there was a salesman riding a bull cart, and Liu Zhihua gave three copper coins for a ride.
The ox cart arrived in less than half an hour. Xiaohe Village is surrounded by mountains, and the climate is humid, but the dirt road is uneven, and you can stumble over rocks after walking two steps.
"Ughhh,"
Jiaojiao's short legs could not step, and he almost tripped. Fortunately, Liu Zhihua grabbed the clothes quickly, "Oh, mother's heart, don't you dare to fall."
Liu Zhihua stopped, and hurriedly handed the basket in his hand to Erya, and said: "Erya quickly grab the basket, and mother will hold my sister and leave."
Erya took the basket and nodded, then stared curiously at a place she had never been.
At a glance, there were mountains, rocks and rivers, and the sunlight shone on the river water which was very beautiful.
From time to time, I met the villagers who brought hoes to the ground, and they all looked at this stranger with curiosity.
A woman inevitably approached Liu Zhihua's family and asked, "You're from another village, aren't you? Whose family did you visit with relatives?"
Liu Zhihua hugged her daughter and smiled with her: "I am looking for my sister Xiuhua, her husband's surname is Mu."
When the woman heard this, she looked at Liu Zhihua's family strangely, then smiled awkwardly and pointed in a direction and said, "Go east, the second family is here."
"Oh, okay, thank you."
Liu Zhihua went with the children, and some curious people surrounded the woman, asking who her relatives were.
The woman covered her mouth and said in a low voice: "It is said that it is the older sister of the sick daughter-in-law of the old Mu family, who is the, but didn't Mu Kuan say that Xiuhua was an orphan, why did another elder sister appear, and she hadn't been here for so many years, perhaps Was that my sister?
"I don't even look like that. This woman is too big and round, and she is stronger than my man. You can tell from his face that he is not easily disturbed. Who knows who he is..."
This way, by,
Liu Zhihua found Mu's family according to the address the villagers said just now.
The house of Mu's house was neat and tidy, and the red door at the entrance was very majestic, much better than the loess house in Wang's house.
Liu Zhihua was also surprised, and Erya pursed her lips and said to her mother: "My aunt's family is much more magnificent than ours, so I'm not as poor as ours."
Liu Zhihua laughed angrily, nodded his forehead and said: "OK, you still have revenge."
Speaking, Liu Zhihua knocked on the door, unnaturally raising her hand to straighten the hair next to her ear, thinking of her sister Xiuhua whom she had not seen for over ten years, she was extremely nervous.
