i am a wishing stone

Chapter 60

Xiangzi and Lu Datian came to the kitchen and took a look. The whole kitchen was pitch black, and it was still cold.Light the oil lamp, and look around, even the vegetables picked from the field are piled on the ground as they are, without any sign of moving.

Xiangzi wondered: He has been away for so long, and no one in the family has come to look at the kitchen?Since I came to the kitchen to look at it later, why is there no one to cook?Aren't these people hungry?Do we have to wait for him to cook?

Lu Datian went to the earthen stove and took a look, commanding: "Xiangzi, light up the fire, we are going to start cooking."

Xiangzi has already stopped, what is he doing with his head bowed at the door of the stove?
Lan Huajing didn't understand, so she stepped forward to take a look - it turned out that Xiangzi was lighting a fire with a flint.

Flint is very difficult to ignite a fire. You have to keep holding the stone and bumping it one after another, so that the sparks that flashed in an instant can ignite the dry wood leaves that ignited the fire, so that the fire can be started.

It was the first time for Orchid Essence to see a picture of a human being lighting a fire, and it felt very strange. It took the hand of the wishing stone and said, "Stone, stone, look at Xiangzi, he just touched a few times like that and lit the fire." Yes, it's amazing."

The wishing stone stood watching and saw the picture of Xiangzi lighting a fire, and echoed: "What's so wonderful about this, everyone can start a fire with a flint and steel. I find it strange that Xiangzi lit a fire, The action of cooking and washing vegetables is so familiar, as if he has done it thousands of times, he seems to have to work every day, which is very different from ordinary children who only know how to play."

Yes, at this moment, Xiangzi is squatting next to a big wooden basin, washing vegetables.He looked at each leaf carefully and washed it carefully, as if this Chinese cabbage was a rare delicacy in the world.

While washing the vegetables, the wishing stone and the orchid essence saw: Xiangzi would stop washing the vegetables from time to time. At that time, his eyes must have been secretly looking at Lu Datian, and the corners of his mouth were always up. of.

Over there, just as Lu Datian put the rice into the pot and was stirring it with a spatula, a familiar voice came in from outside——

"Datian, Datian, Xiaobao is crying so much, come out and help me take a look." This was Xiaoyu's voice, and along with Xiaoyu's voice was the cry of the one-year-old child.

When Lu Datian heard the baby's cry, he quickly dropped the spatula, ran to Xiaoyu's side and asked eagerly, "What's wrong with Xiaobao? You were crying just now, why are you still crying now?" "

Xiaoyu: "I'm hungry, even after eating milk, you tell Xiangzi to prepare the meal quickly, and I'm waiting to eat."

Lu Datian hurriedly shouted into the kitchen: "Xiangzi, cook more quickly, my little sister is hungry."

Xiangzi paused while washing the vegetables, and quickly replied loudly, "I see."

After Lu Datian said this, he picked up Xiaobao and coaxed him softly.

Xiaoyu dragged Lu Datian, who was coaxing Xiaobao, to the main room step by step.

The orchid essence and the wishing stone watched the whole process, and finally understood.

This woman, Xiaoyu, pinched Xiaobao on purpose, and she didn't know the purpose, but because of this incident, Lu Datian immediately put his hands away from the work in the kitchen, and only cared about coaxing Xiaobao.

Now, only Xiangzi was busy in the whole kitchen.

Lan Huajing put her hips on her hips and said viciously to Lu Datian's receding back: "Just leave like this, leaving so much work to Xiangzi, a child, what a fucking inhuman."

Wishing Stone: "..." They are human, maybe not perfect.

Lan Huajing went on to say: "With so many people in the family, there is no one to help Xiangzi. These people are really cold-blooded."

The wishing stone thought for a while before saying: "Maybe you guessed wrong. In the countryside, adults have to work in the fields for a day, and when they come home at night, they are too tired to move. Some people are indeed the eldest daughter. Helping the women at home to cook together."

The orchid spirit was stunned, looked at the wishing stone and said: "You just said that these helpers are the eldest daughters and eldest sons of the family. But Xiangzi is only eight years old, so young, so he has to do so much work. What a pitiful motherless child."

　Chungu will always remember your support, thank you.

　　good night.
