"Xiu... What are you doing? It's not easy for anyone's family to live. We can't thank you enough for lending us those old popcorn sticks. How can we get your steamed buns? Put it away quickly. We can't afford such a valuable thing... "
After returning to her mind, aunt Zhou quickly declined.
Han Mingxiu said, "I've brought it all. Does my aunt want me to carry it back? Besides, it's just a few steamed buns. What's the big deal? Take it, auntie. Don't be polite to me! "
"Lao Zhou, look at Xiuer..."
Aunt Zhou turned her head and looked at her husband on the Kang. She didn't know whether to accept it or not, so she had to ask for her husband's advice.
From the heart, Zhou Xilong is sincere and doesn't want to accept Han Mingxiu's things, because she can't bear to take her. The girl herself is wearing ragged clothes, and often has to borrow a popcorn stick to give them. They are very grateful. How can they accept her steamed bun?
However, if he didn't accept it, he hesitated again when he looked at his old haggard wife and her withering face.
Fanghua is too hard and needs to mend her body
Tangled for a while, he sighed slightly, the principle compromised to the emotion.
"Since it's for us, you can take it."
All this, also had to accept this little girl's kindness, although don't have the heart to accept her things, but what method? Their health is terrible. If they don't mend it, they may not be able to survive
So, I have to take this girl's kindness, only hope that he can turn over one day in the future, and then repay her well. If they can't survive and wait for that day, they will have to apologize to this little girl
"Look, my uncle Zhou has said something. Take it and heat it up!"
As soon as Han Mingxiu saw that uncle Zhou spoke, he put the basin into aunt Zhou's hand.
Aunt Zhou took the basin and went into the kitchen to heat it.
Only Han Mingxiu and Zhou Xilong are left in the room.
Han Mingxiu said with concern, "Uncle Zhou, how's your leg recently? Are you better? "
Zhou Xilong shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "it may be that he is old and healing is very slow, but thanks to the bottles of anti-inflammatory drugs you gave me, at least there is no inflammation, otherwise it will really kill me."
Han Mingxiu frowned and said, "you're only in your 40s, so you're old. If you keep up with nutrition and keep happy, you'll grow better soon."
Uncle Zhou was born in the army. His physical fitness and physique are very good. Although he suffered a heavy injury this time, he will soon recover if he takes good care of himself. The reason why he is not good is that his nutrition can't keep up with him and he is in a bad mood. If he keeps up with his nutrition and keeps a good heart, he will soon recover.
Zhou Xilong also knows that what she said is reasonable. However, under the current conditions, what a luxury it is to keep up with nutrition and keep in a good mood?
Needless to say, it's impossible to supplement nutrition. As a superior teacher, he has become a criminal who can beat and scold anyone and humiliate anyone. How can he be in a good mood? It's good that he doesn't collapse. He's in a good mood. He really can't do it!
Han Mingxiu knew their difficulties and thought about it. He would buy some ribs for stew later. After that, he would bring some meat to him every time he went to the city, so as to supplement his nutrition.
As for keeping in a good mood, she thought for a moment, got up and went to the basket, looked inside, took out the books that she had just bought at the purchasing station, and said, "Uncle Zhou, if you are idle at home, you can read more books. Reading can relax your spirit and relieve loneliness. It's the best time to use it to send out!"
When Zhou Xilong saw the thick pile of books, he immediately got happy and nodded happily, "OK, OK, with these books, I can spend more time."
On weekdays, when his wife went out to sweep the street, he was alone at home, cold home, alone. He was thirsty and wanted to drink water. He was in a hurry to urinate and wanted to relieve himself. No one helped him. In this case, how could he feel better?
In addition, when a person has nothing to do, he is easy to think wildly, think of all kinds of past, and look at the current situation, it is very difficult for him not to cry, and he is still happy!
However, with these books to relieve his boredom, the situation will be much better.
When reading a book, it can distract his attention and attract him to the book, so that he won't think wildly and feel lonely.
It's not that I haven't thought about reading books before. It's just that the two of them earn too little. They even have to spend the monthly subsidy to buy some oil and salt. How can they spend the whole money to buy books?
Han Mingxiu put the pile of books beside him. Zhou Xilong carefully looked at them and selected them one by one. He put what he wanted to see on the left and what he didn't want to see on the right. It can be seen that these books were sent to his heart.
"Xiu girl, where did you arrange these books?" Zhou Xilong flipped the book and asked casually.
Han Mingxiu said, "I bought it at the acquisition station, and I still have some books there. You can watch these books first, uncle Zhou, and we'll change them after you finish reading them."
"Well, Cheng, I didn't expect that you were still a reading boy." Zhou Xilong took a look at Han Mingxiu and felt that the girl was unusual.
Han Mingxiu went back to the basket and emptied the contents.
It's more than half a basket of wood sticks, a dozen corn cobs and two cabbages.
Uncle Zhou doesn't have firewood, and the county is no better than the countryside. She has no place to collect firewood, so every time she comes, she brings them some. Although it's not long enough for them, she can at least use it for a few days to help them share.
When Zhou Xilong saw the things she poured out, he was grateful, but he didn't say anything.
The so-called great kindness does not thank them. The girl has no way to express her thanks for their help, so he doesn't say anything. He just remembers it by heart
**
Soon, aunt Zhou warmed up the steamed buns and steamed buns. The hot steamed buns and steamed buns were put on the table, which promoted the food on the Kang Table several grades.
As soon as Han Mingxiu saw that the steamed bun was hot, he went to the kitchen to wash his hands and went back to the Kang Table.
"Come on, uncle Zhou, try my craft. Aunt Zhou, you can eat it too..."
Han Mingxiu gave them a bun. He was afraid that they couldn't let go of it. He also gave them a bun.
This bun is filled with pork and cabbage. It has more meat and less vegetables. It also contains a lot of oil. A bite of a meat ball is delicious.
Zhou Xilong and his wife haven't eaten steamed buns for several years. They almost forget what steamed buns taste like. When they saw the steamed buns in front of them, they were very excited. They even picked up the steamed buns and put them in their mouth as if they had some kind of ritual feeling.
Well, it's fragrant. It's fragrant!
Zhou Xilong ate the steamed stuffed buns one by one, full of fragrance. It was so delicious that he had to eat while trying to maintain his image, so as not to let Xiu girl see her wolfing down.
Although he has been down and out, the pride of the soldiers still supports him. He can't let people see that he is down and out. He must let everyone who knows him see that his self-respect and self-discipline spirit, which belongs to the soldiers, will never be down and out.
