Sijiucheng, Siheyuan.

The weather is crisp and the sun is shining brightly.

At noon, the temperature rose to 25 or 6 degrees Celsius, causing people in the yard to take off their sweaters and woolen pants and hide from the sun under the eaves.

Of course, not everyone is avoiding the sun.

Mrs. Jia Zhang stood in the yard with a smile on her face, looking at the pot lids, winnowing leaves and even a mat in front of her.

Since getting three bags of corn kernels back, everyone in the Jia family has become more comfortable.

This was the first time that their family had taken advantage of Yang Xiaotao, and it was still so much.

Thinking that with so much food, her family would be able to eat enough, the smile on Mrs. Jia Zhang's face became even bigger.

Of course, they didn't take it out right away, which would easily lead to suspicion. After all, the corn had been at the door of Yang Xiaotao's house for quite some time, so there was no guarantee that anyone would see it.

Therefore, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have agreed that this must be done slowly.

Therefore, the Jia family had been paying attention to the movements in the courtyard for the past two days. Qin Huairu even paid careful attention to the words of the people around her and found that no one mentioned anything about corn, so she felt relieved.

Perhaps, they all thought Yang Xiaotao had put it away.

So, the two of them felt that there was no problem today and didn't want to wait any longer.

There is no way to wait. After all, there is not much food left at home.

Take the changed bags of corn kernels to the yard, wash them, and then dry them in the sun for grinding.

Sure enough, as soon as there was some movement, someone came over to inquire about the news. Qin Huairu only said that it was placed under the bed at home before, forgetting that this was because the child hated to find it.

Although the people in the courtyard did not believe it and were even surprised, they did not think that the Jia family was the owner of the food.

However, everyone was just curious and did not ask.

Don't interfere with the Jia family's affairs.

This is something that all the children in the courtyard know.

Therefore, in this courtyard, without the stick stem, Xiaodang could only lead the locust flower to play.

"Huai Ru, are you ready to inquire?"

Jia Zhang looked at the corn kernels drying at the door. After sorting, those corns that were severely moldy and hairy were picked out and thrown away, and there were quite a few left.

It's just that these corns are generally rotten. I don't know what kind of corn Yang Xiaotao planted. Some of them are gray. If they are not washed, can the ground flour be eaten?

Even if you pick and choose and throw away a lot, if the rest is ground into powder, it will probably weigh about forty or fifty kilograms.

"Let's ask around. There is a small mill at Chu Laosan's house outside the alley. People usually grind grain, but if we want to use it, just give us half a catty of corn."

Qin Huairu pulled the pot with her hands and poured the washed corn onto the pot lid with a smile on her face.

Obviously, these dozens of kilograms of corn are nothing but charcoal in the fire.

"Still collecting things? This bastard Chu Laosan, why can't our family have some conscience when it's so difficult for us?"

"No, I'll go talk to him. I don't believe that this person has no conscience and dares to take my things."

With that said, Mrs. Jia Zhang opened her short legs and walked out of the Chuihua Gate in a blink of an eye, and quickly walked out of the alley.

Qin Huairu didn't stop her when she saw it. Half a pound of corn was too much, and it was enough for their family to eat.

Thinking mentally, he picked up the corn in the bucket next to him.

Qin Huairu felt that the bucket of corn was a bit light. It looked full, but in her hand, it was not that heavy.

'Maybe it's because I'm full and I have strength.'

Qin Huairu didn't think much about it, just took a look at the corn. This one should be the latest one, because it was much fresher than the two bags of corn kernels. She didn't understand why Yang Xiaotao threw away such good corn and buried it. What a pity.

.

'Those who have money to burn their bags.'

Mentally, he could only think of this reason, and then Qin Huairu did not wash it, but just poured the corn on the mat to dry.

"Huairu!"

A mother came over from the side, carrying a bag of eggs in her hand.

"Big Mom!"

Qin Huairu's eyes shone and she immediately stepped forward to speak.

"You guys have a lot of corn here."

The aunt looked at the corn spread on the ground and felt a little weird.

"Hey, wasn't this taken out from the bed as a child's play? If it weren't for them, we would have forgotten it."

"Really? That's great. With all this food, your family will be better off."

The aunt did not ask further questions. Those who can get food these days have their own skills, and what they eat is theirs. As long as it doesn't break the law, who cares about the rest.

"This is for Xiaodang and Huaihua. Let them replenish their bodies. They must not starve to death at such a young age."

"Auntie, I want to thank you on behalf of the two sisters."

"Why are you so polite? It's in this courtyard~"

The aunt sighed with emotion, and Qin Huairu also felt new emotions after hearing this, and the two held hands tightly together.

"By the way Huairu, when are you going to watch Bangge?"

Qin Huairu laughed after hearing this and said, "Last time I went to see Banggeng, this guy said he recognized a brother there and took good care of him."

"I don't think he looks like he's hungry. He hasn't been there in the past few days."

Qin Huairu thought of Banggeng's appearance as a little adult, and felt deeply that her son had grown up.

After he comes out, he will be able to support the Jia family.

"Well, it seems that Banggeng has become sensible. If you do the math, Banggeng is already seven years old this year. Life goes by so fast."

The eldest mother sighed with emotion, as if Banggeng had grown so big in the blink of an eye, and when Banggeng was just born, the courtyard was very lively.

At that time, there was the deaf old lady, Jia Dongxu, Liu Haizhong, Liu Guangqi, Shazhu and He Yuyu, the Xu family, the Chen family and her wife.

But in the blink of an eye, all the effort was gone.

The eldest mother just felt that this time was too fast, so fast that she lost the taste of life.

"Yes, Banggeng is already seven years old, seven years ago."

Qin Huairu seemed to be touched by her heartstrings, recalling the past, which included laughter, sadness, bitterness and sweetness.

But if you really want to evaluate yourself.

regret!

A word comes from the bottom of my heart, and then there is unspeakable sadness.

All kinds of regrets.

But if we talk about the biggest one, maybe...

Qin Huairu looked at the corn kernels on the ground.

What he regarded as a treasure, he discarded like worn-out shoes.

Maybe this is the difference.

The aunt came to her senses and said to Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu nodded immediately after hearing this, "Okay, I'll let you know in advance next time I go."

The aunt nodded, handed the egg to Qin Huairu, and then turned to go home.

Qin Huairu walked into the house with the eggs and asked Xiaodang to watch the locust flowers and not break them.

Then after thinking for a while, he pulled out a few pieces of unlined clothing from the kitchen, smelled them, threw them into a basin, and put them under the faucet.

Now, this faucet is prepared for her.

At noon, meal time.

Qin Huairu dried the clean clothes and was about to go back to the house when she saw Qin Jingru coming out of the moon gate in the distance, holding her belly with one hand and raising her face high.

Qin Huairu felt aggrieved when she saw Qin Jingru's appearance.

She was also pregnant and had a baby, so it didn't matter that she couldn't compare to Ran Qiuye. After all, Yang Xiaotao's beast was too strong. He earned so much, so eating was nothing.

But she, Qin Jingru, is a country bumpkin, and it is simply unreasonable for her to live such a life despite her fortunes.

This guy, with his appearance, must be going to a restaurant again.

snort!

Qin Huairu snorted coldly and returned to the house with the basin in her arms.

Qin Jingru glanced at Qin Huairu who was leaving, her big eyes rolled up, and she was too lazy to respond.
