Framed at the beginning: Female educated youth forced to marry disabled military officer

"what happened?"

"Sugar, eat sugar."

Xiao Zhengyin stretched out his dark claws, and even the youngest Xiao Zhengyu screamed sweetly.

Although Xiao Zhengjin said nothing, among the group of children, he had the most eager eyes.

"We've finished today's candy, it's gone."

"Then when will we have candy?" Xiao Zhengjin asked.

"Well, that depends on your performance."

"What kind of performance?" Xiao Qingqing asked softly.

"That is, if you listen to me, be obedient, and behave to my satisfaction, you will get candy. For example: you cannot say bad things about Third Uncle and me. If you hear others say bad things about us, you must come and tell me; come back from outside , wash your hands before eating and after using the toilet; also, take the initiative to help your third uncle with work, such as feeding chickens, ducks and cleaning. Can you do this?"

"I can, then you must keep your word." Xiao Zhengjin looked confident.

"I can do it too. I can dig earthworms for the chickens." Xiao Zhengyin said.

"I can do that too. My sister and I can go cut the grass." Xiao Qingqing said

"Yes, yes." The youngest also imitated the words.

"Okay, let's settle the accounts every three days, starting from tomorrow." Meng Xiaoman said and glanced at the gray hands of the children, "If I find out that you didn't do it, the candies will be gone."

Xiao Zhengjin followed Meng Xiaoman's eyes and saw his black claws, and was the first to rush to the sink to wash his hands.

Meng Xiaoman looked at several children standing in a row, washing their hands, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

The biggest weapon to deal with greedy children is delicious food.

When Father Xiao and others came back, Xiao Xiangdong had not come back yet.

The Xiao family couldn't wait to eat, so Xiao's mother had the food served on the table.

Seeing this, Meng Xiaoman took the bowls and chopsticks and planned to leave some food for Xiao Xiangdong.

"Hey, the younger brother and sister do love the third brother very much. They even left food aside for fear that the third brother would be hungry." Zhou Xinghua joked.

"If I don't save some, I'll probably have to lick the bottom of the basin when Xiangdong comes back."

As he spoke, he glanced at Xiao Xiangbei, who hurriedly took his seat.

When Zhou Xinghua saw that she had prepared half a bowl of vegetables, her eyes widened, "Hey, you have prepared so much, why don't we eat it?"

"That's right, it's from the third child's family. The third child doesn't work and can't eat so much food." Xiao's mother agreed.

Xiao Xiangdong is taller than the two brothers of the Xiao family, but he doesn't eat much as the two of them eat every time. Meng Xiaoman feels that he is not full at all.

"I'll eat with him!"

As he said that, he picked up another chopstick and fried leeks.

When Xiao's mother saw her like that, she angrily scolded her for starving to death. "By the way, the third child's family, I don't know if your illness is cured or not. The third child's legs and feet are inconvenient. From now on, you two can eat in your own room."

When I was at work today, my daughter came over with a worried look on her face and said that she had asked the hygienist at the health center that in order to avoid infection, it was best to eat alone.

"Okay."

It's better to eat alone, it's still peaceful for two people.

Xiao Xiangnan wanted to say that it was bad for the whole family to be like this. As soon as he opened his mouth, his daughter-in-law Liu Zhier pulled down his arm and said, "Listen to me."

Xiao Xiangnan had no choice but to bury his head in his meal.

Forget it, even if he said it, no one would listen to him.

After putting the food in the pot to warm, Meng Xiaoman went out to meet Xiao Xiangdong.

After not walking far, I met someone returning.

"How's it going? What did the branch secretary say?"

"The party secretary said that he will announce this method tomorrow, but he can't guarantee whether the people in the team believe it or follow it."

After all, there is no successful case in this matter before, so it is normal for everyone not to believe it.

"Well, that's normal. When someone succeeds, everyone will believe it. I don't know if the supply and marketing cooperative accepts persimmons. I'll have to ask another day. If they do, it will be easy to handle."

"Hmm, I'll ask when the time comes." Xiao Xiangdong wanted to say that there is a high probability that he will not accept it. The food supply and marketing cooperative is very cautious about this kind of food. If something goes wrong with the food, it will be difficult to deal with.

But it wouldn't hurt her confidence, so she didn't say anything. He thought to himself that when she made the persimmons, he would go find the person and sell them to her.

It’s not like Meng Xiaoman has never thought about asking the brigade to set up a persimmon processing factory, but it is very unrealistic at the moment when the food problem has not been solved. Therefore, it is better for the family to cook and eat by themselves.

When they got home, Meng Xiaoman brought the food over and said that they would eat alone after that.

Xiao Xiangdong looked confused.

Meng Xiaoman explained that it was to avoid infection.

Xiao Xiangdong nodded, this seemed like something the Xiao family could do.

Even if the two of them eat alone, Xiaoman can also eat more.

Eating in the family is like fighting a war. These days, it is rare for everyone to eat to the fullest.

Meng Xiaoman couldn't compete with others, and she didn't know if she had eaten enough in the past two days.

The idea in my mind has to be put on the agenda.

After dinner, Meng Xiaoman went to boil foot water again, but was stopped by Xiao's mother.

"Boil water again?"

"Hmm."

"Tell me, you didn't do anything today, how can you be so dirty? There is nothing to wash every day, and it's not enough to waste firewood. I have to go to the mountains to pick up the firewood, but you have used it up. Then you can go there by yourself Pick it up."

"I can't sleep without washing my feet. I think you and dad should also wash your feet before going to bed. Otherwise, it will smell so bad that the whole bed will be stink." After saying this, Meng Xiaoman pinched her feet with a look of disgust. nose.

Mother Xiao thought of Father Xiao's sweaty feet, and her body shivered. Thinking that she had almost been convinced by her, she said seriously: "My feet don't stink, so I don't need to wash them every day!"

After saying that, he went back to the house, but when he went to bed, he punched Father Xiao unhappily.

"What's wrong?" Father Xiao turned over without even opening his eyes.

"You said you didn't know how to wash your feet even when you were sleeping. You'd die from the fumes."

"I just washed it yesterday." Father Xiao said hummingly, "Besides, haven't you gotten used to smelling it after so many years?"

"Get used to you big-headed guy, you stink like hell."

Xiao's mother spat at him.

"What's wrong with this? Isn't it always like this? Go to sleep, you have too much to do."

He said and pulled the quilt up.

Mother Xiao's nose happened to be covered by the quilt.

The smell of pickled sauerkraut hit her nose, and Xiao's mother almost died from the smoke, so she quickly pulled down the quilt.

But I was muttering in my heart, I never felt it smelled so bad before, it was all because of that Meng Xiaoman.

So talkative.

Blind and clean!

After boiling the water, Meng Xiaoman took out the brown sugar and eggs she bought before and made two bowls of brown sugar and eggs, one for each person.

"You can just eat it yourself, I don't need to."

How can any old man eat these?

"If you want to eat together, I think you should also take supplements." Xiao Xiangdong is too thin, and his cheeks are a little sunken.

"It would be great if we lived by ourselves. It would be convenient to make some food." Meng Xiaoman said.

"Xiaoman, do you want to move out?"

Meng Xiaoman's eyes lit up, "Of course I do."

"But the conditions are not as good as here."

In front of this group of tile-roofed houses, the Xiao family lived in a thatched house at the back of the village. After moving here, the house there was abandoned.

"Thatched houses don't matter, as long as they can accommodate people."

Apart from being a brick house, it's not much better. This room also serves as a storage room, with no privacy at all.

It would be even more embarrassing if Xiao Xiangdong's brother came back again.

"Then I'll take you to take a look tomorrow. If possible, I'll find someone to repair it."
