"Xiaosi, let me give you something delicious to eat."

The curtain of the shack was lifted, and there was a flash of light.

Lu Xiaoyu grabbed a handful of tender plant stems and leaves in each hand and entered the shack sideways.

Lu Xiaoli, who was following Lu Xiaoyu, raised his hand to roll up the curtain of the shack and hung it aside, letting the fresh air and sunlight squeeze into the narrow hut.

Lu Sheige looked at Lu Xiaoyu who was smiling with a faint smile on her lips. She was already used to the name Lu Xiaosi, as well as the Lu Quan couple and the three sisters of the Lu family.

Lu Xiaoyu put down the things in his hands on the low table nearby, rubbed his hands and approached Lu Xiangge: "Xiaosi, are you feeling better today?"

"much better."

Lu Sheige turned his head and glanced at the table beside the bed. One handful was grass and the other was thorny sprouts. "What is this?"

Dusty memories flooded her mind. She had eaten these when she was young, right?

"This is ammonium grass. Just peel off the outside one and eat the white one here."

Lu Xiaoyu picked up the grass shown to Lu Xiange, peeled it open, revealing the white cotton-like stuff inside, and handed it to her mouth, "Xiaosi, have you ever eaten ammonium grass?"

Lu Sheige opened his mouth to take it, shook his head and lied: "I haven't eaten it."

She has eaten it, but the little girl pretending to be the mistress of the Lu family probably has not.

Hearing this, Lu Xiaoyu immediately looked forward to it: "Is it delicious?"

Lu Xiuge chewed twice. A small piece of ammonium grass was not enough to fit between her teeth, but she tasted the slightly sweet taste. A faint smile appeared on her originally sallow face: "It's sweet and quite delicious.

of."

"Right, what I said is right."

Hearing what Lu Xiuge said was sweet, Lu Xiaoyu's eyes turned into crescent moons, and he stuck out his tongue at Lu Xiaoli, who was standing at the door with his arms folded, "Second sister, I said Xiaosi would like it."

How could anyone not like ammonium grass? This is one of the only things that children from poor families can eat without spending money.

When Lu Xiaoli saw what Lu Xiaoyu said, he didn't bother to pay her any attention. He just snorted softly, folded his arms and looked at the sky outside.

The blue sky is as pure as washing with water.

In the past few days, Xiaosi's health has improved, and his parents' brows have relaxed a lot.

The family is becoming increasingly poor, but it is a happy event that Xiao Si will no longer need to take medicine after she recovers.

"You have to eat a lot of this ammonium to enjoy it."

Lu Xiaoyu quickly peeled off a dozen sticks and stuffed them into Lu Sheige's mouth, "Try again."

Ever since Lu Xiaoyu knew that he and Xiaosi were twins, and that Xiaosi was sent to his uncle's house to be raised because of poor health when he was born, Lu Xiaoyu has always felt guilty.

She felt that she must have snatched Xiaosi's food from her mother's belly, and that was why Xiaosi was in poor health and was sent away.

For this reason, Xiaoyu, a cute little girl, wished she could cut off two ounces of meat from her body and feed it to Xiaosi so that she could get better quickly.

Due to Lu Xiaoyu's enthusiasm, Lu Sheige ate a lot of strange things in the past two days after waking up.

For example, the soft and slightly sweet ammonium grass, the sweet and delicious thorn sprouts, the sweet and sour ganbangui, the fishy grilled fish and grilled river shrimp, etc.

A bunch of edible but not very delicious things were carefully brought to Lu Shege by Xiaoyu.

After just a brief contact, Lu Xiaoyu in Lu Xiange's heart was an enthusiastic and cute little girl.

The eldest sister of the Lu family, Lu Xiaoqing, was gentle and smiling and almost never spoke. At first, Lu Xiange thought it was because the eldest sister was not familiar with her, but later Lu Xiaoyu, a talkative person, let it slip.

Because the eldest sister stutters, I rarely hear her speak on weekdays.

However, in Lu Xiaoyu's opinion, Sister Xiaoqing is the best elder sister in the world, no one can match her.

The second sister, Lu Xiaoli, is a very diligent little girl. She knows how to punt and go down the river, and she fights with the naughty boys who live near the dock to protect her sisters, but she is not close to Lu Shege.

Most of the time, when Lu Xiaoqing and Lu Xiaoyu were surrounding Lu Xiangge, she seemed to be far away from Lu Xiangge, seeming to neither hate nor like her.

Her alienation is not hidden, it is spread out in such a big way, it is very magnanimous.

But Lu Xiange knew that after she fell ill, Lu Quan had been carrying bags at the dock to earn money in order to make money for her medicine. The job of fishing and casting the net fell to Lu Xiaoli, who was only in his teens.

In the evening, Lu Xiaoli and Qiu went to the river to lower the nets. Early in the morning, Lu Xiaoli and Qiu went down to the lake in a boat to collect the nets.

If fish is caught in the net, it will be sent to the vegetable market at the pier for sale.

When you are lucky, you can earn more than ten or twenty cents a day. When you are unlucky, you either don’t catch any fish, or you can’t sell the fish you catch, so you have to take them home to eat or pickle them.

system.

If you rely on mountains to eat, you will rely on water to eat. People who fish will have no shortage of fish to eat.

It's okay when the weather is cold. You can sell the pickled fish for a few bucks if it's dried, but it's not cost-effective because it costs a lot of salt.

The warmer the weather has become since March, the more difficult it is to do fishing business. Fish can easily die out of water, and dead fish cannot be sold at a high price.

Mrs. Qiu had to nurse her child and take care of the sick Lu Xiange. The fish that could not be sold at the vegetable market had to be left to Lu Xiaoli to find a solution.

At this time, Lu Xiaoli was holding the wooden bucket and selling from door to door. He didn't care about the price, as long as he could exchange for some copper coins.

The wooden barrel is already heavy, and with the addition of water and fish, it becomes even heavier.

Lu Xiaoli ran around in a circle, and sometimes her arms were so tired that she couldn't lift them up. In this way, she never complained or complained.

At home, Lu Xiaoqing rarely went out because of her stuttering. She would help Qiu take care of her younger brother, prepare medicine for Xiang Ge, help Lu Xiaowu poop and pee, and change diapers.

Even though Lu Xiaoyu is not that big, she still has things to do. She has to pick wild vegetables every day, blanch the wild vegetables, mix them with stick noodles to make wild vegetable dumplings, and then send them to the dock to be eaten by Lu Quan, who is carrying the bag. At home,

Adults and children either eat wild vegetable dumplings or drink wild vegetable paste.

Only after picking wild vegetables, Lu Xiaoli had time to chat with Sheng Ge to relieve his boredom.

After eating the ammonium grass, Lu Xiaoyu began to peel the skin of the thorn sprouts again: "This thorn sprout was pinched by the second sister, it is very tender."

Hearing Xiaoyu mention her, Lu Xiaoli rolled his eyes silently with an expressionless face, turned around and left.

Even though Lu Xiaoli walked very fast, Lu Xiangge still noticed the slight redness on Lu Xiaoli's fingers.

Was she scratched by the thorns when pinching the thorns?

Miss Lu Xiaoli is really hard-spoken and soft-hearted!

Lu Xiangge couldn't help laughing, but he didn't expect that it would cause a wound on his chest, and he almost choked on the ammonium grass in his mouth.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?"

Lu Xiaoyu jumped up in fright, and raised his hand to slap Lu Xiangge's chest, but she caught him.

"No...it's okay."

It's terrible. If he is slapped by Xiaoyu, the wound that has finally healed will probably be even worse.

"Is it really okay?"

Lu Xiaoyu asked again worriedly, and after making sure that Lu Xiaosi was fine, he continued peeling off the thorns for her with peace of mind.

Lu Xiangge was lying on the bed, listening to Lu Xiaoyu whispering some gossip she had heard.
