Farmhouse Stone Mountain

After visiting the village, Shi Shan, who was carried back, felt that he had spent so many days resting in vain. He really returned to his body with some strength before liberation. Someone brought some water in for him, and just threw him on the kang, which made him sick.

After a while, the door was gently pushed open, and Shi Shan struggled to support his upper body. First, he saw a wooden barrel against the door, moved slowly, and was pushed into the room.

The little pumpkin struggled to push and pull the half-bucket of water that took him a long time to get through the door, and the patched clothes were stumbled and half wet.

The little pumpkin didn't even look at the stone mountain since it pushed the water into the door. It used a broken bowl to scoop up several bowls of water and poured them into the basin, then took out a dusty rag from nowhere and put it on the basin. Ready to go out at the corner of the kang.

"Hey, wait"

Shi Shan shouted to Little Pumpkin who was about to go out, but he didn't know what to say.

"Bring it over after eating," Little Pumpkin said nonchalantly.

Shi Shan looked at the water basin at the bottom, and then at the child whose clothes were half wet, "Well, thank you! It's really uncomfortable when the clothes are wet, so I quickly changed them."

It took a long time for the child to give a soft "En" and walked out of the room.

Shi Shan got out of bed, washed it with water, and went to the wooden cabinet in the corner to look through the clothes he could wear. This kid is really sensible. Thinking about it, he didn't know that the kid followed him from today, waiting for Youcun When he returned the same way, Shi Shan saw a group of children in the village laughing around him, and some threw stones at him.

Shi Shan looked at the dirty water in the basin, and sighed, his father was a disappointment, and his son suffered too, so it was good for him to pick up a sensible child for nothing.

For dinner, Little Pumpkin only brought in a small bowl of paste, and Mrs. Zhao kept scolding Shi Shan outside the house for losing the face of their old Zhou family, and it was enough to give him a bowl of paste.

In the middle of the night, Shi Shan was so hungry that he couldn't sleep. He got up from the kang and touched the kitchen in a dark way. , reached out and dug in the bran noodles for a long time, and took out two bright white eggs.

"If there are fewer eggs, grandma will scold you"

Shi Shan turned his head and saw Little Pumpkin lying at the door and staring at him. Seeing that he had discovered him, he said with a gray face.

Shi Shan grinned at his big white teeth, although he didn't know if his body had big white teeth, "Come here, little pumpkin"

The little pumpkin lying at the door hesitated for a moment, not daring to go over, fearing that Shi Shan ate the eggs himself and claimed that he ate them, and he would be beaten again.

Hey, this brat!Shi Shan walked over and wanted to pick him up, but he overestimated the current condition of this body, the fact that even a three or four-year-old child could not be lifted up.

"Help me see how to get the flint and steel." Shi Shan threw out two flint and steel from the kitchen.

The little pumpkin stretched out his small hand to take it, and lit a flint and steel in a decent manner.

"If you're hungry, there's still big pancakes in the pot. Grandma won't notice you if you eat a piece. Xiaobai won't be able to lay two eggs tonight." Xiaobai is the old hen that Little Pumpkin has been feeding. I ate two eggs at night, if Xiaobai can't lay two eggs tomorrow morning, and Grandma finds out that there are too few eggs, he will be scolded.

The corner of Shi Shan's mouth twitched, to eat an egg and wait for the chicken to lay eggs temporarily?Seeing that the child lit up the fire skillfully, he moved a stool to stand on the stove, took out a piece of cake from the big boiler and handed it to him, and then rearranged the big cake in the boiler. took a piece.

Shi Shan looked at the pancake and then at the two eggs in his hand, lost for a while, held back his saliva, and put the two eggs back.

The little pumpkin watched him put the eggs back, her little eyes stared at his movements without blinking, for fear that he would come up with the idea of ​​cracking those two eggs again.

Looking at his expression, Shi Shan felt that the delicious eggs flying away from his mouth finally eased a bit, he picked up the pancake and stuffed it into his mouth one by one as if venting his anger, damn it!It's unpalatable! .

The little pumpkin watched him go back to the house after eating, and didn't want to beat the eggs, so he was relieved and went to sleep.

----

The days were passed by Zhao's scolding, and Shi Shan was finally able to control this body, and his body became stronger.

Once Shi Shan could move by himself, he stopped letting the little pumpkin fetch water. He hummed a song and went directly to sit by the well to fetch water to wash his face.

The cold well water splashed on his face, and Shi Shan stared at his own face in the water basin. At the age of 19, he was pretty and delicate, with the tails of his eyes raised, damn it!Shi Shan poured the water, and he looked like a mother, and his hair had not been washed for a few days, exuding a sour smell. It was neatly tied around his head before, but now it is piled up like cow dung. on the head.

Mrs. Zhao, who put the food on the table, looked at the stone mountain beside the well, and began to curse at her father and mother again.

Yang, who was holding a few bowls, lowered his head to do things, but his eyes were full of ridicule and contempt.

When the table started to eat, Zhou Zheng, the head of the family, called Shi Shan to come over for dinner.

"Here we come." Shi Shan responded, walked over to the only vacant seat and sat down. The people sitting around the table had different expressions, but none of them looked happy.

The dining table is not made of wood. The villagers eat on cheap bamboo tables. You can faintly smell the fragrance of bamboo. There are several thickly baked pancakes on a large plate. Know the name of the stir-fried dish, black, without any oil foam, a large bowl of pickles, it looks like pickled with Chinese cabbage, a few finger-thick garlic sprouts, the tips of the leaves are yellow, I don’t know if it’s not washed clean or Reluctant to pinch it off, the whole family picked up the flatbread and ate it with pickles.

Shi Shan just took a bite of the cake, and Zhao began to scold again, "Please treat yourself to the right after a meal, you really treat yourself as the son of a rich family, Da Xiao, I didn't say you, you should take good care of you!" Wife, dirty!"

Shi Shan bit the big cake and didn't answer, but Zhou Zheng said, "Mother-in-law, calm down! Eat when you eat!"

Shi Shan took a look at his so-called husband, Zhou Daxiao, the second child in the family, sitting next to him. He looked like a farmer, with dark skin and strong flesh. Sitting down until he was scolded by Mrs. Zhao, the man didn't even look at him and didn't make a sound.

The little pumpkin obediently ate the cake in his hand, and didn't go to pick up vegetables. The whole family went down with a few chopsticks, and the two plates were empty. The little pumpkin and Shi Shan didn't eat a single chopstick. Sitting opposite Shi Shan was the elder sister-in-law Yang, Sitting next to Mrs. Yang were her two children, a boy and a girl, each with an egg in the bowl, and the little pumpkin bowl with nothing in it. Shi Shan swept around the people on the table, Zhou Dazhong, and even Zhou Zheng I'm used to this all.

After absent-mindedly eating, Zhou Zheng took his two sons, Zhou Dazhong and Zhou Daxiao, to the fields. Mrs. Zhao asked Shi Shan to wash the dishes at the top of her voice, and her sister-in-law Yang hid in the house with her two children. Shi Shan followed suit. , ran back to the house and closed the door, Zhao slammed the door outside and cursed, but he didn't dare to hit the door hard, for fear of breaking the door.

Mrs. Zhao didn't get angry, walked around the yard, turned around and saw the little pumpkin in the yard, picked up the broom and beat the little pumpkin without saying a word, the little pumpkin stood straight without hiding Let her play, Shi Shan just wanted to lie down for a while, when he heard the noise outside the house, and saw that Mrs. Zhao was playing with a small pumpkin.

Why doesn't this kid run away!Shi Shan opened the door with a "snap", pulled the little pumpkin and ran out of the yard quickly.

When Mrs. Zhao chased him out from the yard to scold him, seeing no one, Mrs. Zhao spat, "Bah! It's delicious and lazy! Don't come back if you have the ability!"
