Chapter 9 Speaking Space

Father Li stared blankly at the injury on Li Xiaoyu's hand: "I know, the hand is injured! What's wrong?"

Li Xiaoyu climbed up on the high stool and sat down, and said solemnly: "After my hand was injured, I found that I have a place that is very large.

There is land, water, and mountains in it. I can put things in and take them out.

The key is that I can still catch fish, how about it! Great! "

"Isn't that uncomfortable? In such a big place, can you support it?"

"No, old man, I'm not eating too much, I can't stand it! I don't feel it!"

"It's okay, you sure!"

"It's definitely okay, old man, aren't we talking about fish? When are we going to catch fish and sell it, it's urgent."

"You let me slow down! Slow down..."

Li Xiaoyu took them with both hands and said silently: Go in!

Li Xiaoyu was the only one who entered. She came out with her head down and looked at Li's father and Li Chengji in frustration: "I can't get in!"

Father Li said solemnly: "No one can go in, just right! That's the only way to be safe. You can't tell anyone about the second child, not even your mother, the eldest sister, or the younger brother.

The less people know about it, the safer it will be. This secret is too big. We can't keep your little sister out of our family.

You are the eldest son, keep it in your heart, and be sure to protect your little sister.

Xiao Yuer, you can't talk about it to anyone anymore. You should be careful when you're outside, and don't show any clues. "

"Old man, I know! I don't want to be caught and sliced!"

Author: Who told you to slice?

Li Xiaoyu: Isn't it all written like this in the book?

Author: This is teaching bad children.

"Dad, I will remember, nothing is more important than my little sister." Li Chengji assured.

"Old man, there is the biggest wheat field in my family, ten big.

Give me some chickens, ducks, goslings, and pigs. You can eat meat when you keep them there. I haven’t eaten pork in a long time! More fruit trees! "

"That's ten acres of land, I'll prepare things for you." Father Li agreed.

"Old man, there is actually one more important thing, very important!"

"What could be more important than this!"

"Famine, after two years there will be a three-year famine, very serious, the kind that will kill people!"

Father Li sat on the ground in fright: "What did you say? How did you know?"

Li Xiaoyu said solemnly with a sullen face: "I said I came back from the future, do you believe it?"

"Then are you still my daughter?" Father Li was uncertain. He didn't know if the little girl in front of him was still his little girl.

"Yes, both worlds are your old daughter!"

"This is really going to be crazy!" Father Li was relieved when he heard that it was his daughter, he pretended to be calm and rubbed his face hard.

Li's father asked her to explain in detail what happened. Li Xiaoyu told some major events that would happen in the future, and also said that the second brother died of starvation during the famine.

Father Li, with scarlet eyes, hugged Li Chengji in his arms, unable to calm down for a long time.

His eldest son is gone, how can it be!

"Old man, second brother, you really believe it!"

"I would rather believe it than not, this is your adventure, God must have let you come back and save your second brother."

The next morning, Li Xiaoyu saw Li's father's eyes red and haggard.

Looking at Li Chengji again, Li Xiaoyu said silently: Sins and sins are all my fault.

Li Chengji was drying the wheat at home, and the rest went to the fields to plant corn.

On the way, I met Li’s second father’s family, and they greeted each other and walked up the mountain together.

Li Erma said thanks to Li: "Fourth younger siblings, thank you for the fish that you brought yesterday, and let our family have a good meal.

When will Xiaoyan leave today, call my parents away when she is leaving and ask them to have a company. "

"Okay, let them go together, leave after lunch, and let Xiaoyan call for the long-term." Li Ma readily agreed.

Li Ma and Li Xiaoyan used hoes to dig a hole in front of them, and they had to dig a half-hoe depth, which is commonly known as "digging".

Li Xiaoyu and Li Chengyi hang a cloth pocket around their necks and follow them to plant seeds.

Pockets are filled with corn seeds, and three seeds are thrown into each pit.

Father Li fetched water from the river, added some farmyard manure, irrigated the seed pits, and the whole family worked hard, hoping to do more and finish it earlier.

The Baogu pit filled with farmyard manure is also covered with a thin layer of fine soil. After working in the morning, the family planted eighty percent of the land.

Li Xiaoyu was so tired that her waist was about to break, she couldn't walk on the road, and she couldn't lift her hands.

After finishing work and going home, Li Xiaoyan had lunch and went to school with food and fish for her two aunts.

The Li family had to continue their morning work, and it took three days to finally finish planting the corn.

It rained lightly that night, it was raining just in time!

The two brothers of the Li family went to school, while Li's father went to work in the township health center five miles away, leaving Li Xiaoyu and Li mother at home.

Waking up in the morning, alone at home again, Li Xiaoyu remembered that Li Ma said yesterday that she was going to plant red vines, which should be on the **** of the river.

Li Xiaoyu sat on a stool and ate the red rice porridge that was still warm in the pot.

See that there is nothing to do at home, close the door, and go to Li Ma.

"The soil is wet, don't come down, play on your own, don't run away!" Li Ma quickly stopped her little daughter when she saw that her daughter was about to go into the ground.

​​​Li Xiaoyu had to stay and play honestly. She rubbed slowly to the edge of the river, watching the water drool.

Li Ma saw Li Xiaoyu squatting by the river, and hurriedly shouted: "Little Yu'er, come here, what are you running for? Come and get me the red vines, go and spank."

Li Xiaoyu sucked her saliva and went to the field to be a tool man.

"Mom, are you finished planting? Go home." Li Chengji came back from school and found Li Ma who was working in the field.

Hearing Li Chengji's voice, Li Xiaoyu shouted happily: "Second brother, look at me planting red vines here."

"Really! Let me see, Xiao Hua Mao, it's amazing, she can help my mother with her work!

Mom, let's go home to cook first, you come back early! Brother and sister go! "

"You go back first, I'll be back in a while."

When he got home, Li Chengji scooped the water, pressed Li Xiaoyu for a while, and washed out a basin of turbid water. The industrious little bee went to cook non-stop.

Li Ma came back from work, and Li Chengji scooped the rice and put it on the table. Mother and a few drank red rice porridge with few rice grains, and had lunch with a bowl of sauerkraut.

Looking at the yellow faces of her mother and brothers, Li Xiaoyu thought that she had to get some fish to eat at night. Every day is porridge, and she can't even eat dry rice once when the farming is busy. If this continues, the family will not be far from skin and bones !

Li Xiaoyu was pestering her to go to school with her two older brothers, and she whispered to her second brother on the way.

"Second brother, let's go catch fish after school, okay! Catch more. When the old man comes back, let him bring it to sell tomorrow."

Li Chengji nodded calmly, pulled Li Xiaoyu into the classroom, and pressed her under the stone table.

asked her to sit on the ground without making a sound. Li Xiaoyu looked up and saw two children younger than him under the stone table in front of her.

Hehe smiled, sat down peacefully, leaned on Li Chengji's legs, and winked at the two children in front of her. She enjoyed being taken to school by her second brother.

After school, Li Xiaoyu and his brothers slowly walked behind, seeing that there were not many people, and then ran to the Xiaohe where they went last time.

"Little brother, you go to the slopes to find your mother and come home, bring two big buckets, hurry up!"

"Okay, wait!" Li Chengyi ran to find Li Ma.

The old man is the dialect of Sichuan, meaning father.
