Then he faced this group of young people with a smile that looked like you are bachelors and don’t understand how couples get along. I don’t blame you.
I don’t know why, but seeing these uncles and aunties getting along with each other, all the young people present suddenly felt full, very full, even though they hadn’t eaten yet.
That is to say, Zhang Yu was just picking up locust flowers and didn't see what happened just now.
Otherwise, they will be told that this will be called spreading dog food in future generations.
As time went by, several young people climbed into the tree.
Wherever the breeze passes, the fragrance blows towards your face.
Zhang Yu couldn't help but pick up a piece of it and put it in his mouth to taste it.
My thoughts couldn't help but go back to my previous life when I was a child.
In the few years when he first came to live with his aunt and uncle, his aunt and uncle had no jobs and relied entirely on farming to support the family.
My life was not very good to begin with, and now I have such a "sluggish person" as me.
Life became even more difficult.
But no matter how busy they were, Auntie and the others never neglected the children.
Although the living conditions were not very good at that time, I have to say that I was never lacking in love.
No matter how busy she was, every year when the locust trees were in full bloom, my sister-in-law would always urge her uncle to take the children with them to the locust trees next to the creek to plant some locust trees.
After returning home, carefully pick out the branches and leaves that were accidentally mixed in, wash and dry them, mix them with flour and steam them.
During the steaming process, the children would circle around the stove and around my sister-in-law.
Everyone wants to be the first to eat steamed sophora flowers.
But my sister-in-law would often pat their little hands and ask them to go out and wait for a while.
Then wait until it cools down, then add garlic juice and a small amount of oil to cool it.
Even though they were just children at the time, they could still eat two or three bowls each.
My stomach was so bulging that I didn't want to leave the table.
It was my sister-in-law who coaxed her into doing it tomorrow, so she reluctantly got off the table.
Then, even though my stomach was still full, I began to think about my next meal of steamed sophora japonica.
In addition to steaming sophora flowers, my sister-in-law would occasionally go out of her way to steam sophora flower steamed buns and fry sophora flower egg pancakes for them without fear of wasting oil.
Whenever my sister-in-law is not busy and it is the season when locust trees are in full bloom, she will get some more, dry them into dried locust flowers, and save them for the days when there are no more locust trees to make tooth sacrifices.
"What are you thinking about, Xiaoyu?" The weight on his shoulders interrupted his recollection.
Zhang Yu turned around and saw that it was Zheng Gouzi.
Seeing his tired look, Zhang Yu asked with concern: "Brother Zheng, why didn't you go to rest?"
Then he answered his previous question, "I was just thinking about how to eat this locust flower?"
"Sophora japonica, oh, the sophora japonica flowers bloomed very early this year and are quite good. How many did you shoot?" After listening to Zhang Yu's words, Zheng Gouzi looked at the basket in Zhang Yu's hand.
"It's been a good year this year. We have these old locust trees in our yard, and we can save a lot of food these days." Zhang Yu said with some sigh as he looked at the lively crowd outside the door.
Even though he has sold food to the courtyard through Zheng Gouzi and his sister-in-law, there are still many families who are short of food.
"That's right, with this locust flower, the people in the courtyard will have a better life for at least half a month." Listening to Zhang Yu's sigh, Zheng Gouzi also agreed.
But there was a hint of complexity in Zhang Chen's eyes that he didn't see.
As a child who grew up eating Baijia rice, these locust trees have special meaning to him.
No matter how nice the people in the courtyard are, they are not his biological parents, and they will not be attentive to everything about him.
He won't always wonder if he has enough to eat and whether he will be hungry?
He also knew that it was not easy for the people in the courtyard, so if someone called him to eat, he would go. If no one called him, he would be hungry.
I never take the initiative to go to someone's house to beg for food.
And every year when the elms and locust trees are in full bloom, it is a good day for him.
At this time of year, he can eat a little fuller.
Seeing his appearance, this time it was Zhang Yu who patted his shoulder, interrupting his thoughts.
"Brother Zheng, what are you thinking about? Let's go, I've picked up almost everything. Go back and wash up, and let my sister-in-law prepare something delicious for us."
After saying that, he took Zheng Gouzi and walked home.
Zheng Gouzi, who broke free from his memories and came back to his senses, also smiled.
Now that he has grown up, he can earn his own food and has the capital to support himself.
He no longer fears being hungry like he did when he was a child.
The more he thought about it, the more relieved he became. He put his arm around Zhang Yu's shoulder and said, "Come on, I've been thinking about Aunt Guifang's crafts for a long time. I need to eat more today."
"No, I won't let you go until you have enough to eat today." Seeing that he had figured it out, Zhang Yu felt relieved and also joked with him.
Watching them leave, other people who felt that they had picked up almost everything also went back one after another.
Regarding this, people in the courtyard are quite conscious.
People who have a little more food left at home won't pick too much.
At most, eat one or two meals to try it out.
Most of the remainder will be left to those families in the courtyard who do not have enough food.
Even those families who don’t have enough food at home are well aware of this.
And I am very lucky to live in this courtyard now.
Although there is not much explicit help, it is this kind of silent and gentle help that warms people's hearts.
Just like Zheng Gouzi did when he was a child, these locust trees may not play a big role, but they can help more people overcome the current difficulties.
What Zhang Yu didn't know was that while their entire yard was in joy, the atmosphere in the Shi family was very solemn.

Quartz suppressed her anger and greeted her neighbors with a smile as usual.
After the neighbor left and entered the front door of his house, his face suddenly turned pale.
At this time, Quartz's face turned blue, a vein on his forehead swelled out, and several veins on his face connected to the sunken area were twitching there.
My mouth opens and closes, and I can't help but open it again.
Finally, out of consideration for the surrounding neighbors, I could only swallow it alive.
It's just that his anger at this moment can be seen from his eyes that seem to be on fire.
At this moment, Quartz felt anger rushing from the soles of her feet to her forehead, and there was an unknown fire burning in her heart.
The family members who came over were frightened when they looked at his face and his teeth that were chattering.
A few children, in particular, leaned against the wall tightly, trying to shrink their bodies and make their presence less noticeable.
If possible, they could not wait to disappear from Quartz's eyes now, immediately.
