Chapter 29 Hitchhiking

  In the morning, when Bai Xue woke up, Bai Rushan had already got up and was burning the kang.

   "Xiao Shan, why do you get up so early?" Bai Xue asked her younger brother as she tore off the quilt and put on her shoes in one go.

   "Last night, I ate well and ate well, and my whole body was full of energy. I woke up early in the morning and wanted to work!" Bai Rushan said with a smile.

   "What a good boy! I'll help my sister light up the stove in a while! My sister cooks porridge!" Bai Xue said and walked out.

   In the morning, she cooked sorghum rice porridge again, and she took out another marijuana flower from the supermarket space, one cannabis flower per person, and served it hot.

  Sorghum rice porridge served with sweet cannabis flowers and small pickles, a breakfast is settled.

  Zhang Yuanzhen came over at eight o'clock, carrying all his rations.

  Ten catties of sorghum rice, eight catties of cornmeal and five catties of ballast.

   "There are only so many, I will find a way to get some fine grains and meat during the Chinese New Year!"

   "Xiaoyuan! Hurry up to eat, what about fine grains and meat, which one can eat fine grains and meat! Aren't they all the same coarse grain porridge?" Wang Cuihua waved.

  Because Zhang Yuan saved Bai Xue's life, the couple treated him very well.

  Zhang Yuan sat down at the kang table with a smile, looked at the marijuana flowers on the table, something flashed in his eyes, and calmly picked up the bowl to eat.

  He knew that it must have been bought by that girl. The little girl's ability should not be underestimated.

   "Xiaoxue, you can ride my bicycle to the town in the future, or I can take you there!" Zhang Yuan said while looking at Bai Xue while eating.

   "Really? That's great!" Bai Xue said happily, "I have to go tomorrow!"

   "I have something to do tomorrow, so I'll give you a ride! What time are you leaving? I'll pick you up!" Zhang Yuan actually has nothing to do, but just wants to get in touch with this little girl more.

   "No rush, just leave at nine o'clock, then I'll go to the educated youth spot to find you! You don't have to turn around to pick me up!" Bai Xue said.

   "Big sister, isn't Brother Zhang coming to the house for dinner tomorrow morning? Just go together!" Bai Ruchuan reminded.

   "Yes! I forgot about it!"

   "Yes, it's just right for us to leave after dinner! Then it's settled!"

  Bai Xue finished her breakfast and went to Bai Dajiang's house with two catties of sorghum rice, two catties of cornmeal, ten feet of cotton cloth, ten feet of burlap, and needle and thread.

  Bai Dajiang went out to collect firewood early in the morning and was not at home. The eldest daughter of the second room, the fourteen-year-old cousin Bai Rumei was feeding the chickens in the yard.

  Each family can raise three chickens, but Bai Xue’s family didn’t have any because Bai Dahe’s two sons fell to their deaths.

   "Big sister, are you here? Come in!" Bai Rumei saw Bai Xue walking into the yard at a glance, and greeted her with a smile.

"Xiaomei, are you feeding the chickens? Is the second aunt home? Where is Xiaoyang and Xiaoyue?" Bai Dajiang has two daughters, one and two. Kisaragi is ten years old.

"Yes! The three old hens in our family may not be laying eggs because it is too cold. I will store some hay for them. My mother is cleaning the soles of the shoes in the house, and Xiaoyue is also helping! Xiaoyang and Dad went out to pick them up. Firewood!" Bai Rumei followed behind Bai Xue and went into the house together.

  The three children of the second uncle's family are very capable, and the youngest Bai Ruyue has followed her mother to learn the soles of shoes.

   "Second Aunt..." Bai Xue yelled as soon as she entered the room and walked to the back room.

   "Hey! Xiaoxue is here? Come and sit on the kang!" Bai Dajiang's daughter-in-law Wu Zhaodi hurriedly greeted Bai Xue who came in after hearing the sound.

  Bai Xue is not too polite, put the things she brought over, take off her shoes, climb up on the kang and sit down?

   "Xiaoxue, are your mother and the two children doing well? How is your father's injury? The second aunt has always wanted to visit your mother, but I haven't saved enough eggs..." Wu Zhaodi said with a little embarrassment.

   "Everything is fine, my dad's injury is also recovering well, and the stitches can be removed soon! My mother's milk is also enough." Bai Xue said, looking at Bai Ruyue who was holding the sole of the shoe, "Xiaoyue is so handy!"

   "Sister, you see that I have paid well! I just learned it!" The little girl was very happy when she was praised.

   "She prefers to sew and mend, unlike Xiao Mei, who doesn't like to use needles and threads." Wu Zhaodi said happily. "It's good that your mother is breastfeeding, otherwise the two children will suffer!"

"No, my mother took away all the food when my mother was just born. There was no milk, and the two younger brothers and sisters kept drinking rice soup and crying every day!" Bai Xue said, picking up the scissors on the kang to fiddle with, but the scissors Also too much.

   "By the way, Second Aunt, this is the ten yuan that my second uncle gave me that day, and I will pay it back!" Bai Xue put down the scissors, took out ten yuan from the pocket of the cotton coat and handed it to Wu Zhaodi.

   "Did your dad change it with centimeters? Your second uncle has already changed centimeters, why are you in a hurry to pay back the money?" Wu Zhaodi said without taking the money.

   "No, grandpa gave it to us in centimeters! It's for third uncle! You take it, second aunt!"

  Wu Zhaodi just took the money, "You said how cruel your third uncle is, that you can beat your elder brother? You have lost your conscience!" He said and put the money into the kang cabinet.

   "Second Aunt, I have something else to ask for your help." Bai Xue didn't answer her.

   "Oh? What's the matter?" Wu Zhaodi asked after closing the door of the kang cabinet.

"Isn't my mother in confinement? Yesterday I went to the town to buy a ten-foot piece of flawed cloth. I wanted to make clothes for my younger brothers and sisters. I wanted to ask my second aunt to do it for us! Seeing that my second aunt is here busy…"

   "Is that so? All right, Second Aunt is almost done with the soles of the shoes. Anyway, the uppers are not available yet, so I can make clothes for you first!" Wu Zhaodi agreed without letting Bai Xue finish.

   "Sister, I can help you too!" Bai Ruyue said.

   "While you're playing, you know how to make clothes?" Bai Rumei complained after hearing what her sister said.

   "Cut, I can learn if I don't know how!" Bai Ruyue raised her face, she was really cute.

   "You can't use your cousin's clothes to imitate. If it's broken, you can fix it! It's okay if you watch from the side!" Wu Zhaodi said softly.

"Second Aunt, the cloth and needlework are all here. My parents asked me to send these few catties of food. It's already a year old. I'm afraid you don't have enough food." Bai Xue took out the cloth, "And the burlap is from the town A person I know asked me to take it back to make cloth bags. He said that cloth bags cost one cent for one catty and two cents for five catties. If my second aunt has time, I can do this job for you. Well, I happen to be busy too! My sisters don't like needles and thread!"

"No way, Xiaoxue, you can take the food back. Everyone is short of food, and your family has a large population. We will pass it if we can! The second aunt took the job of sewing cloth bags, just to supplement the household income. My sister-in-law is still thinking about me!" Wu Zhaodi knew that this must be because her sister-in-law was thinking about her, otherwise Xiaoyun Xiaoxia would also be able to sew, so how could it fall on her.

"Second aunt, just take it! It's good to cook a dry meal for Xiaoyue and the others. Our family has enough food! I also deducted two months' centimeters from my third uncle for my dad! On the contrary, you, The second uncle exchanged the centimeters for money, so that there was not enough to eat when the food was distributed!" Bai Xue forced the food to Wu Zhaodi, and Wu Zhaodi accepted it, because their family was about to run out of food.

  Grandma just came to [borrow] yesterday and took away five catties of cornmeal! He said it was a loan, but when did he return it.
