At midnight, a gust of night wind blew by, and little Luyao woke up in a daze with a slight chill.
He rubbed his big, confused eyes and looked around the simple house in a panic. When he saw the familiar figure, he felt at ease. Then he smelled the smell of meat. He put on shoes that were not the right size and walked to
The busy sister Lu Qing asked curiously:
"Sister, it smells so good, what are you doing?"
Seeing that his sister had woken up, Lu Qing turned his head gently and said, "We have plenty of meat to eat tonight."
"Yeah, really, sister."
But even a child of five or six years old, how could he not like meat dishes? As soon as he heard that there would be meat to eat tonight, his big innocent eyes lit up a little bit, and his voice showed joy as he asked his sister
.
"Sister didn't lie to Yaoyao. Although I didn't borrow the chicken legs, look."
Looking at his sister's expectant and surprised eyes, Lu Qing turned around and brought out two bowls of hot rice. One of the bowls was covered with plump prawns, which were steaming.
Looking at the fat red shrimps, little Lu Yao swallowed secretly and asked Lu Qing doubtfully: "Sister, can we eat these shrimps? Don't we need to exchange them for more rice with our uncles and aunts?"
"
Lu Qing rubbed his sister's soft hair and shook his head: "If we don't change it, these shrimps are ours."
After listening to her sister's words, little Lu Yao couldn't help but burst out with a bright smile. After all, no matter how sensible he is, he is just a five or six-year-old child. He follows his sister all day long and eats nothing but some leftovers from the night before.
I barely had enough to eat. It was fine when my parents were still alive. I could still eat meat every now and then every once in a week to satisfy my cravings. Since my mother died, little Lu Yao couldn't remember how long it had been since she had eaten meat. Usually, my sister
Little Lu Yao didn't dare to ask or be greedy for the shrimp he caught, because he knew that his sister was going to exchange rice with the uncle and aunt next door, and it was not his own.
But this time when he saw his sister nodding and said it was okay to eat, little Lu Yao, who had been craving for these prawns for a long time, couldn't help but cheered. He took his sister's hand and sat down on the wooden table that was high on one side and low on the other.
One by one, he picked the seven shrimps in his bowl and put them into his sister's bowl. Only two smaller shrimps were left in his bowl. He smiled and said to Lu Qing:
"Yao Yao is still young, so eating two is enough."
Other children of the same age are still in the stage of protecting food, but the child without a father and mother has learned to look at people's faces and lives contentedly. Lu Qing looked at this sensible sister and shook his head: "Sister, if you're not hungry, eat from afar."
.”
After saying that, he put the shrimp into Xiao Luyao's bowl.
"Hmm? Sister, eat it."
"No, eat it from a distance."
The two of them pushed each other towards each other, and finally the two sisters looked at each other and smiled.
"Cluck cluck cluck"
"If you push it any longer, the shrimp will get cold. Let's eat it together, sister."
"Okay~"
Then little Lu Yao peeled a shrimp for his sister, while he inhaled the fishy smell from the head of the shrimp, and his eyes turned into a crescent moon with satisfaction. Lu Qing also peeled a few shrimps and put them in his sister's bowl.
Here, the two sisters had the most wonderful dinner happily. Although the seven shrimps were simply boiled in water, without oil or salt, in Xiao Luyao's heart, these seven shrimps
Shrimp is the most delicious delicacy in the world..
After the meal, the two sisters hugged each other and lay on the shabby bed. Looking at the drafty window, Xiao Luyao asked: "Sister, Xiaoyao is so happy today."
Looking down at his sister in his arms, Lu Qing tightened his arms and said softly: "Why."
"Because we are with my sister, because we have eaten meat, because we are full, Xiaoyao will always be with her."
Lu Yao looked at his sister with bright eyes.
"Well, we will always be together. My sister is here. Go to sleep now."
"Um."
Looking up at his tired sister, little Lu Yao obediently closed his eyes.
Not far away from where the two sisters were fast asleep, in the dead of night, a down-and-out middle-aged man quietly led a group of people into the village. He pointed at the two sisters behind him, a squire dressed in rich clothes and with a big belly.
The house at said:
"Master Zheng, those two sisters are in that house now, look"
After finishing speaking, the middle-aged man looked at the rich and fat man with a flattering smile. He looked at the down-and-out middle-aged man with disdain and snorted: "Why are you so anxious? Of course, you have to wait until I inspect the goods to know the quality.
Don’t worry, I’ll definitely take care of you.”
After saying that, he waved his hand and led seven or eight vicious servants to the two sisters' residence. The down-and-out middle-aged man just nodded in agreement. He did not follow them in together, but hid in a dark place and observed silently.
Just when the two tired little bodies were immersed in sleep, the dilapidated door was violently kicked open.
boom!
A loud noise in the middle of the night frightened the two sisters who were sleeping and woke up instantly. Their two little faces looked at the group of wolf-like intruders with pale faces. Sister Lu Yao looked at these evil servants with big eyes in horror.
He hugged his sister tightly with both hands, not daring to let go for a moment.
Lu Qing was also startled by the loud noise. Looking at the group of ferocious servants who broke into the door, his little face turned pale with fright. However, in order to comfort his panicked sister, he still pretended to be calm and asked in a trembling voice:
"Who are you? Why did you break into our home for no reason?"
Hearing this clear and clear voice like an oriole, the rich mustache's eyes instantly lit up. He held up the lamp and moved forward. Wherever the light went, he saw two handsome little faces that I felt pity for. I couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
:
"That old boy really didn't lie to us. These two are both top-quality goods. Master, I really found a treasure, hahahahaha."
Lu Qing's face suddenly changed when he realized something, and he said loudly and fiercely: "What are you going to do? Our father will be back in a moment. If you don't leave, we will report him to the police!"
The rich man with mustache snorted disdainfully: "Do you know that your father has sold you to me, and now you are my people, please report to the official?"
After speaking, Lu Qing shook the paper in his hand with disbelief on his face: "Do you know what this is? It's the receipt that your father sold you to me, report to the official? Humph, even if the king of heaven comes, it will be useless
, from now on, you two sisters are mine, you know, hahahahaha."
After hearing the words of the rich mustache, Lu Qing, whose faith collapsed, burst into tears and shouted at the top of his lungs: "I don't believe it, I don't believe daddy would sell us, you lied to me, you must have lied to us!
"
Seeing his sister's cry of collapse, Xiao Luyao, who was hiding in her arms, also started crying without knowing why:
"Oh, oh, oh, sister, I'm afraid."
Hearing his sister's cry, Lu Qing couldn't help but tighten his arms around Lu Yao and said nothing, but looked at these uninvited guests coldly.
"Hmph, I can't help but you don't believe it. Here is a blank paper and a black paper. It's useless even if the King of Heaven comes, I kidnap him away!"
